The sickly son died young? After the marriage exchange, I will bring prosperity to his entire clan f

Du Mingxian listened with great interest to the gossip about the Wu family. She never imagined that the Wu family's life was so exciting, far more exciting than her own.

Throughout her life, at this time, she was still dealing with Wu Erniu and his group every day.

These children were very bad from a young age due to lack of discipline; they were bad to the core.

Du Mingwei is truly remarkable. She didn't have to do any work after entering the family, and she even spent money to hire servants and invited Aunt Wang. The Wu family attaches great importance to Du Mingwei's pregnancy.

Widow Chen said, "Now that Wu Daniu has brought someone back, it has solved a lot of problems for the Wu family. You have no idea how worried my sister-in-law was when Aunt Wang didn't go to the Wu family for a few days. She almost wanted to go and stay at the Wu family's house."

A thought flashed through Du Mingxian's mind, "Did you whisper in the old lady's ear?"

"Of course, they are all daughters-in-law. We can't let the eldest daughter-in-law leave. Besides, a married daughter is like water spilled from a cup. Whether Du Mingwei lives well or poorly in the Wu family is her own business. What does it have to do with others?"

"I spoke to the old lady about it, and when my good sister-in-law wanted to go to the Wu family to help her daughter, the old lady intervened and gave her a severe scolding. Now, Xu Yulan treats me like dirt every time she sees me." Widow Chen was somewhat smug.

Thinking back on her past life, Du Mingxian felt that only magic could defeat magic. Old Mrs. Du needed a daughter-in-law like Widow Chen to keep her completely under control.

Her mother, on the other hand, was too soft and submissive, always getting bullied, and eventually even lost her life.

"Well done. I'll reward you with something: your son can study at my Ling family's school."

"Really?" Widow Chen's voice cracked with surprise.

Du Mingxian nodded slightly. "Since it was something Silang promised you, we will keep our promise. Besides, he's clever enough. If he's going to stay by Silang's side in the future, it'll be good for him to know some characters."

"Okay, okay, okay, thank you, thank you." Widow Chen was so happy she didn't know what to say. "I will definitely make sure he studies hard."

"Yes, as long as you can get him to the Ling family openly and legitimately through the Du family, I will arrange everything for him."

"Thank you, I will find a way, I definitely will, to get your father to send the person to the Ling family."

"Hmm, let's see what you can do." After saying that, Du Mingxian thought of the Du family's true colors over the years, "Now that you're in the Du family, stir things up as much as possible, make the Du family as chaotic as possible."

"Okay, okay, I understand, I'll do as you say."

Du Mingxian escorted Widow Chen to the village entrance before driving the carriage back to the village.

The carriage drove straight into the courtyard, and she then lifted the curtain. "Awake? Can you get out of bed by yourself?"

The man in the carriage stood up awkwardly and said in a hoarse voice, "I can walk by myself." The effects of the drug had worn off.

"We've arrived. Get off."

The man got off the carriage, and Du Mingxian led him forward. They happened to run into Wang Qi, who was going to the outhouse. He was surprised to see Du Mingxian with another strange man. "Sister, who is this man you brought?"

“A friend of mine was slightly injured and is staying at my house temporarily. He can stay in your room and sleep in Young Master You’s bed.”

Wang Qi's expression changed drastically. "Sister, no, can we change rooms? I've only had a few days to myself, I don't want to live with anyone else."

"Let's live together, and I'll take you into the mountains sometime."

"You haven't kept your promise to me, so I don't want to trust you."

"tomorrow."

Wang Qi was still a little reluctant, but Du Mingxian was disgusted, saying, "You promised me you would study hard, but I haven't seen you study hard at all."

Before Wang Qi could say anything more, Ling Silang appeared and said, "If you want to live by yourself, there should be vacant rooms in the workshop."

Wang Qi immediately wilted and awkwardly said, "I didn't say we wouldn't live together." After saying that, he went over to the other person in a particularly friendly manner and helped him up, "Let's go, we'll share a room from now on."

"Be careful, he's injured."

After Wang Qi helped the person away, Du Mingxian stepped forward to explain, "I met him when I went out before, we're friends."

"It's alright, there's enough room at home." Ling Silang could tell that Du Mingxian didn't really want to say more, so he didn't want to ask any more questions.

Du Mingxian noticed that Ling Silang was very indulgent towards her, so she opened her mouth but swallowed what she wanted to say and didn't speak.

"Don't worry about my parents, I'll explain."

"Thank you."

Ling Silang's eyes were serious, focused, and full of affection. "We are husband and wife, family. There's no need to say thank you."

Du Mingxian smiled, her heart racing again. She felt as if Ling Silang was deliberately flirting with her.

Is it an illusion?

"I'll take Wang Qi into the mountains tomorrow."

"Let my second brother come with me."

"it is good."

“I’ll go in with you to take a look. I see he’s badly injured.”

"Ah."

When the two entered the room, the patient was already lying in bed. When Wang Qi saw the two come in, he hurriedly ran to the outhouse because he was desperate to urinate.

The person on the bed was very grateful when they saw the two enter. "Thank you for saving my life. I will definitely repay you in the future."

"You're too kind. You've had a long and tiring journey. Your injuries need another doctor to come and take a look, but it's getting late today. We'll call the doctor tomorrow," Du Mingxian explained.

"My name is Lin Hu."

"Brother Lin, if you feel unwell or need anything, just tell the young man who helped you in. His name is Wang Qi." Du Mingxian felt her blood temperature slowly rising as she called out "Brother Lin," she was very excited.

Lin Hu was quite surprised at how the other party had managed to bring him out so precisely. Wu Daniu had just traded him for a maid, and this person had brought him out right afterward.

"Okay." Some things still need to be observed over time.

Seeing the questioning look in Lin Hu's eyes at Du Mingxian, Ling Silang said, "At home, Ling Zimo is the fourth in his family, so people call him Silang. This is my wife, whose surname is Du. Your neighbor is my mentor, Fang Xuezhi. If Wang Qi is not here, Brother Lin, just call him."

Lin Hu was shocked. "You...you mean Fang Xuezhi, the great scholar Fang, who returned from the capital?"

“Exactly.” Ling Silang’s gaze towards Lin Hu changed; this was no ordinary person.

Lin Hu felt ashamed of his earlier suspicions. What other motives could a family like that have for saving him? Perhaps they just pitied him and helped him out of a sense of obligation.

"Thank you for saving my life."

"Brother Lin, please rest first."

Seeing that the two were about to leave, Lin Hu opened his mouth to say that he was hungry, but before he could say it, the two left, so he had to swallow his words.

As soon as she left the house, Du Mingxian went to the kitchen, and Ling Silang went in to start a fire for her.

"With the master here, won't he be unhappy if someone sees you coming into the kitchen to light the fire for me?"

Nowadays, people believe that a gentleman should stay away from the kitchen.

“Sir, you are not a pedantic person. People eat grains, and these things always need to be done by someone.”

Fang Daru, who happened to be passing by, overheard their conversation. If it were in the past, he would have been very angry about Ling Silang's behavior and might have even cursed him for being useless.

But after the unexpected turn of events, he came to terms with it.
