Green Ivy spoke up somewhat angrily, "Young master, your good intentions have been completely wasted. They didn't even acknowledge you."

It's fortunate that the young master made a special trip.

"There's something strange about this. Look at Yan Song's eyes just now; he was filled with hatred. Why did he let her go?"

Gongsun Xingzhi looked at the house, pondered for a moment, and felt that something was strange.

"Young master, can we please stop meddling in other people's business? It's just a grilled fish, how delicious must it be for you to keep thinking about it!"

Gongsun Xingzhi closed his eyes. "You don't understand."

Green Ivy: Oh, this servant truly does not understand.

……

Lin Shuyun entered the house carrying a vegetable basket and humming a little tune, only to find a number of uninvited guests sitting in the yard.

"You're finally back. Deal with the Jiang family."

When Qin Niangzi saw Lin Shuyun return, she turned around and went into the house.

Besides Jiang Hao, the second branch of the Jiang family also came from the courtyard.

"This must be Changtian's wife, right? I'm your second aunt." Pang Shi greeted Lin Shuyun with a smile as she entered.

Lin Shuyun ignored Pang Shi and raised her voice, "Gu Chen, how come you let just anyone into our house!"

Gu Chen opened the door and came out of the house, expressionless. "Excuse me, everyone, it's lunchtime, we're about to eat."

"What's wrong with you, woman? You're so inconsiderate!"

Pang frowned as she looked at Lin Shuyun.

She and Old Madam Jiang had met Lin Shuyun once, but they didn't expect her to be so rude and uncouth. It's such a waste that she has such a beautiful face.

"This is my home. Before you speak, shouldn't you check who's showing up uninvited?" Lin Shuyun slammed down her shopping basket.

"You...you're so rude!"

Jiang Xue was startled and looked at Lin Shuyun. She had been quite curious about Lin Shuyun before, but now she had no good feelings towards her at all.

His parents and uncle, as elders, had already entered the house, but they actually kicked him out.

“Mr. Lin, we are here today because… You must have heard the rumors outside, which are completely unfounded.”

Jiang Hao spoke with his head down.

Gu Nanfeng came to Jiang Hao's house for two consecutive days, vandalizing and intimidating him. Jiang Hao didn't want to come, but he still came anyway.

His parents were getting on in years; he couldn't just stand by and watch them walk ahead of him.

Lin Shuyun raised an eyebrow. "I heard about it. What, are you eager to put a green hat on your own head?"

Jiang Hao's face was grim. "Nan Zhi is not that kind of person. I believe she is innocent, and Chang Tian is definitely my son."

He never suspected his first child, never expecting his parents to have kept it a secret for so long.

So his child wasn't lost as revenge by the servants, but by his parents...

Jiang Hao wanted to laugh, wanted to go crazy, but seeing the two white-haired old people finally arrive.

"You think it's true just because you say so? If my husband really is your son, then I'm really unlucky to have to deal with your family. Let's go, or I'll unleash the dogs." Lin Shuyun sneered.

Gu Chen also spoke up to urge them to leave, "Have you finished speaking? If you have, then hurry up and leave. I've told you so many times, we don't care to go back to the Jiang family."

If Gu Bao hadn't opened the door, he wouldn't have let these people in at all.

Unexpectedly, after they came in, they refused to leave. Gu Chen led his younger brother and sister-in-law to the room and simply did not say a word.

"You little brats, you..."

Out of respect for his elder brother, Jiang Ming held back and didn't say anything unpleasant.

The recent events in the Jiang family are so absurd that he can hardly process them.

Jiang Hao said hesitantly, "I know you're all angry, but Changtian is studying at the academy, and his reputation is still quite important."

"That's his own business, it's none of your business as outsiders! When he went too far back then, why didn't he think about the retribution he would face!"

After saying that, Lin Shuyun grabbed a broom and chased people away, then slammed the door shut.

The Jiang family are people who care about their reputation, and being kicked out like this almost made them faint from anger.

"Sister, this sister-in-law looks amazing!" Jiang Miao whispered as she followed behind her parents.

Gu Nanfeng's men came to their house every day, which is why the sisters managed to hide away.

Unexpectedly, when they came to find someone in person, the Lin family wouldn't even let them in.

"Don't say anything. If we can't do it, let's go to the academy gate. I don't believe that Jiang Changtian, a scholar, would really not care about his reputation!" Pang suggested in a low voice.

If Gu Nanfeng continues to cause trouble like this, how will we live?

She can barely afford to hire servants at home now, and she doesn't want to end up on the streets.

The root of the problem still lies with Jiang Changtian.

"I'm going to find Changtian, you guys go back first."

Although Jiang Hao felt guilty, he still went to Luming Academy.

Jiang Xue looked at her uncle, wanting to remind him to speak properly to her older brother, but Jiang Miao grabbed her wrist, saying, "Sister, there's a woman across the street who seems to be spying on us."

Jiang Xue looked over and saw that a woman had indeed quickly closed the door.

It's probably just that the nearby residents are curious.

Jiang Xue withdrew her gaze, thinking that now that her elder brother was back, he would have a marquis as an uncle, and they could benefit from it too.

……

……

Academy.

The news that Jiang Changtian was the eldest son of the Jiang family who had been separated from his family had spread far and wide.

Similarly, the fact that Gu Nanzhi was divorced and the misappropriation of her dowry could not be concealed.

The Jiang family of Qingliu is a joke.

"Jiang Changtian, your mother was unfaithful and gave birth to you. How dare you study at the academy? Let me see just how thick-skinned you are!"

After class, Han Ming casually blocked Jiang Changtian's way.

"Han Ming, say it again! What did Jiang Changtian do to offend you? Why do you dislike him for no reason?" Xian An's expression changed immediately.

Seeing that Xian'an was so eager to take the lead, Han Ming became even more sarcastic.

"Wow, it's different when someone's protecting you. How does it feel to be ridden like a man? Hahaha!"

Jiang Changtian stopped and looked at Han Ming. "Who sent you to test me? You need evidence to back up your words. Why don't you tell me, senior brother, what exactly happened to my mother? Who is her lover?"

These words imply that Gu Nanzhi was not a virtuous woman, and that the rumors were not directed at anyone else but at the current emperor.

Everyone knows it in private, but no one dares to bring it up in public.

Jiang Changtian had already considered this point when he first made the rumors.

Without destruction, there can be no construction. Having adopted Jiang Changtian's identity, he naturally had to clear Gu Nanzhi's name.

Han Ming's smile faded. "Some people are really shameless. If it were me, I wouldn't have the face to study! Teacher Wang is here."

The onlookers made way for him.

"Jiang Changtian, your reputation is seriously affecting the academy. You should withdraw from school to avoid delaying others!"

Master Wang held the book and looked at Jiang Changtian with a displeased expression.

It's that student again. Why is he always causing trouble?

“Master Wang, I am the victim, why should I drop out of school?” Jiang Changtian looked at Master Wang with a questioning gaze.

"Jiang Changtian from Class C, your father is looking for you outside the academy!"
