After being reborn, I locked up all the scumbags and bitches in one nest.

Just as Qin Wanyou was about to reach the Right Prime Minister's residence, she saw the Prime Minister's carriage heading to court arriving at the entrance of North Street.

Qin Wanyou quickly turned around and disappeared around the corner, almost being discovered at the last moment.

After confirming that no one was around, Qin Wanyou quickly slipped into the Green Bamboo Courtyard on the west side of the Prime Minister's residence and breathed a sigh of relief upon returning to her room.

I practically ran all over Yandu City that night; it would be a lie to say I wasn't tired.

Why?

Because the Great Yan Imperial Palace is located in the middle of the eastern part of Yandu City, while the Right Prime Minister's Residence is in the north of Yandu City, the street in this area is called North Street; the Prime Minister's Residence is a mansion facing south, while the Regent's Residence is located in the south of Yandu City, not far from the Imperial Palace.

So Qin Wanyou really went in circles, from north to south, from south to west, and then back to the north. How could she not be tired?

Qin Wanyou slept until late morning again, but she wasn't so lucky today.

Before she had finished her lunch, she was summoned by Li's maid, Li Madam.

The lady requests your presence.

It seems the rumors outside have subsided.

While changing clothes, Shuangling secretly told Qin Wanyou...

It is said that in the past two days, both the Prime Minister's residence and the First Prince's residence have arrested many people who were spreading rumors outside. However, those arrested all vehemently denied that they were the instigators and claimed that they had only heard it from others. In the end, there was no other way but to release them.

Then, another interesting thing happened in Yandu City yesterday afternoon. The eldest son of the Marquis of Changping was caught cheating on his wife. When he ran away, he forgot to put on clothes and ran naked in the street.

Many people on the street were frightened, and now everyone is talking about this matter, with only a very few discussing the Dragon Boat Festival banquet.

Qin Wanyou guessed that the matter concerning the eldest son of the Marquis of Changping must have been the work of that old fox, Prime Minister Qin.

Because the news of the Dragon Boat Festival banquet spread among the people, the emperor felt embarrassed and extended the confinement period for the eldest prince, as well as confining Qin Mingzhu and the others.

Li managed to appease Qin Mingzhu so quickly that she now had time to 'care' about herself.

But Qin Wanyou didn't expect that Granny Li would invite her to the old witch's courtyard, so it seemed that she couldn't avoid being scolded.

Upon entering the old witch's Changqing Courtyard, Qin Wanyou first bowed and greeted the old witch and Madam Li, then coldly called out to Qin Mingzhu before standing aside without saying a word.

Before Li could even speak, the old hag began, "Indeed, women and petty people are the hardest to raise. You wretched child, you sleep until noon every day and eat lunch until sunset. Has the Prime Minister's family's upbringing been eaten by dogs? Even the little beasts guarding the gate are up earlier than you, you little bastard!"

Qin Wanyou had not yet spoken in rebuttal.

Qin Mingzhu said gloatingly, "Grandmother, my sister will soon become the Crown Prince's wife, so of course she doesn't need to come and pay her respects."

Old Madam Qin turned and glared at Qin Mingzhu, her words like a flood, "You little whore! How dare you say that? You've done such a shameless thing, you've disgraced the Prime Minister's mansion, and you still can't become the principal wife. You call it a secondary wife, but you're just a concubine! The legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister's mansion is a concubine, you little slut!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Mingzhu recalled what had happened before, and tears streamed down her face.

Madam Li immediately put her arm around Qin Mingzhu's shoulder, patting her gently to comfort her, while glaring angrily at the old hag. "Mother, how could you say such things about Mingzhu? She is your own granddaughter! The Prime Minister's family is also a noble family, and you yourself come from an official family and were once a lady of high birth. How could you speak such foul language and insult your granddaughter? How will she stand in the Prime Minister's family, in the First Prince's residence, and in Yandu City in the future?"

When the old hag saw that Li was still talking back, she immediately launched into a tirade against Li like the Yellow River bursting its banks, "You jinx! If the Prime Minister's family hadn't married you, this jinx, and given birth to this money-losing brat, and raised her to be so dissolute, would the Prime Minister's family's reputation be so thoroughly tarnished by outsiders now?"

Look at how many people have been pointing and whispering outside the Prime Minister's residence these past few days. The people of the Prime Minister's residence are so ashamed because of this worthless child of yours that they can't even hold their heads up high. They can only come and go with their heads down, hiding their faces. You've disgraced my son and my grandson, trampling on their dignity. You've ruined the Prime Minister's residence so miserably.”

The old hag took a breath and continued, "The Prime Minister's mansion is full of high-ranking officials and nobles, but when that little slut stripped naked and lay under a man enjoying herself, did she ever think that she was a young lady from a prestigious Prime Minister's mansion, a carefully cultivated lady of a respectable family? Like father, like son. You, a slut, raised such a bastard, a worthless thing!"

Qin Wanyou listened to the barrage of insults that sounded like firecrackers exploding.

He wondered if this old hag didn't usually go out to visit friends, but instead went to the back alleys and villages to pick fights with people.

So crude and vulgar, just like the shrewish village women arguing with an uneducated, idle old rogue in the village alley.

What Qin Wanyou didn't know was that Old Madam Qin was quite well-off when she was young. She came from the family of a high-ranking official. Although her family disliked her for being a girl, she never lacked food or clothing. However, after her younger brother was born, a fortune teller said that she would clash with his fate and affect his career. So, her family sent her to the countryside.

After the old lady was sent to the countryside, the emperor was far away, and the maids and servants no longer took care of her. She was just a little girl, and all they needed was a bite to eat.

After the maids married local farmers and had their own children, they paid even less attention to the young ladies, since the Vice Minister's mansion hadn't sent anyone to visit them for so long.

So the young old lady had to go to the village to find food because she was hungry, and she heard the old men and women in the village cursing their ancestors and women every day.

Later, in order to get a bite to eat, he was instigated by the villagers to curse. After a few years, he didn't know anything but cursing.

He was not taken back to Yandu City by the Vice Minister's Mansion until he was thirteen years old. Although he was later tutored, his swearing habit, which had already developed, was probably something he would never be able to change for the rest of his life.

Uh, it's far away.

After the old hag finished her tirade, Qin Mingzhu was filled with shame and indignation, and cried out, "I don't want to live anymore!"

Then he turned around and ran straight out.

Before Madam Li could even shout, she saw Qin Mingzhu bump into Prime Minister Qin Changshi, and immediately cried out in a wronged tone, "Mingzhu! Master!"

When Qin Mingzhu saw Prime Minister Qin arrive, she immediately cried out, "Father, I don't want to live anymore, I don't want to live anymore, waaaaah~"

After comforting Qin Mingzhu, Prime Minister Qin entered the room, called out "Mother," and then scanned the people in the room with an imposing gaze. "What's going on here? Is the Prime Minister's residence already in such a chaotic state?"

Everyone lowered their heads and dared not utter a sound.

The old lady was still a little afraid of upsetting her son, so before Li could speak, she preemptively said, "It's all because of the recent events at the Prime Minister's residence. They all sleep until sunset before getting up. I talked to them about manners, otherwise they'd be constantly being criticized behind their backs. But what happened? After just a few words, they all wanted to kill themselves. The Prime Minister's residence is becoming more and more unruly."

Li said aggrievedly, "But Mother, what you said was too... too... unbearable to hear. Mingzhu is still a girl, how could you say such a thing..."

Finally, Li couldn't continue speaking.

The old lady snorted. "You think it's unpleasant? Humph, how many nice things you said before, and what have you all done? We understand how hard it is for you to manage such a large family, so we don't let you pay your respects every morning and evening, and we also spare our granddaughters and grandsons from their daily greetings. But look, look at what you've done to the Prime Minister's residence!"

After saying that, she turned her head slightly and sighed heavily, looking even more heartbroken, sad, and helpless.

Prime Minister Qin actually knew his mother's temperament and thought about the recent events at the Prime Minister's residence. He was also angry and blamed Li for failing to properly educate her daughter.

So he went along with his mother's words, saying, "The recent events at the Prime Minister's residence are my fault, causing you worry. You are right, the rules of the Prime Minister's residence cannot be disregarded."

Then he said to Madam Li, “Starting tomorrow, as a daughter-in-law, you will need to serve your mother and pay your respects to her every morning and evening. As children of the Prime Minister’s family, you cannot be uneducated and must pay your respects to your grandmother before 7 a.m. every day. If you violate this rule, you will be punished according to family law.”

"Furthermore, before Mingzhu got married, Madam Li focused on teaching Mingzhu manners and delegated some of her affairs to Aunt Fang."

Upon hearing the latter part, Madam Li looked at Prime Minister Qin in disbelief, "Master?"
