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

Du Mingxian didn't know whether to pity her or tell her she deserved it. "You...you don't want to live with him anymore?"

"Yes, I don't want to live with him anymore, but I don't want to go back to my hometown either. My hometown is nice, but it can't accommodate someone like me who is divorced. I want to find a job in Beijing and talk about it later if I have the chance."

Du Mingxian's words all turned into a sigh, "Then I'll inquire for you. If there's a suitable job, I'll let you know."

"Okay, thank you."

"I'll get busy first."

Du Mingxian left, and Lin Guixiang stood there for a long time before finally turning around and leaving. Instead of returning to the courtyard, she walked in the opposite direction.

Du Mingxian found Chunfeng, who had already investigated.

The two went directly to the outside of the Wu family's current residence, where Chunfeng explained things to Du Mingxian.

"The Wu family mansion is currently inhabited by several of the younger members of the Wu family, as well as Du Mingwei, Wen Shiyan, Cheng Yu, and two young children from the Cheng family who were too young to live there after the entire Cheng family was executed."

"In the end, they were all taken in by Cheng Yu and raised in the Wu family mansion."

"By the way, I also found out that Wu Erniu has several women around him, and two of them are even kept outside the marriage."

Du Mingxian wasn't surprised at all. Given Wu Erniu's behavior in his previous life, he would naturally have kept many women. Wu Erniu was a womanizer, but she wondered if he had any children in this life.

"What else is going on?"

"Wu Daniu hired a female tutor to teach his two younger sisters. Wu Sanniu and Wu Erniu were also hired tutors. Wu Sanniu was doing a little better, but Wu Erniu was too old and only knew a few characters, so he was unwilling to study anymore."

At this point, Chunfeng found it amusing. "The Wu family's house is quite lively every day now. Wen Shiyan is Wu Erniu's legal wife, and all the women who came in after her are concubines. They fight over her every day."

"And... Du Mingwei. Although Du Mingwei is Wu Daniu's legal wife, she can't get along with her current husband, so she will stay there for a while and also go back to the Wu family for a while."

“Du Mingwei is quite resourceful. When she was staying at the Wu family’s house, Wu Erniu would often be in that room.”

Du Mingxian suddenly thought of a question, "Does Wu Daniu know about what Wu Erniu did in Du Mingwei's room?"

"I know, and... I caught them red-handed."

Chunfeng found out something quite explosive: Wu Erniu and Du Mingwei were having an affair when Wu Daniu accidentally saw it. They started arguing, but then made up. The three of them almost had sex together, but Wu Daniu had to leave first because of something else. After that, everyone tacitly avoided mentioning the matter.

However, Chunfeng didn't want to say these words to Du Mingxian, fearing it would offend the lady's ears.

Du Mingxian is now particularly curious about Du Mingwei. "Why did she choose to marry into the Wu family instead of the perfectly good Ling family? Now her life is like this. I wonder if Du Mingwei will regret it."

At this moment, Du Mingwei was talking to Wu Daniu, and they were talking about Du Mingxian.

"Ling Silang will also be taking the exam this time, we absolutely cannot let him pass." Du Mingwei's biggest fear was that Ling Silang would pass the exam.

In her previous life, Ling Silang died early, and the Ling family bullied her for her entire life.

The people who deserved to die in this life didn't die sooner. They've lived so long, and now they have to take an exam and become officials soon. How can she accept this?

If Ling Silang has become an official, then why did she go to such lengths to arrange a marriage exchange in her entire life?

Wu Daniu was also thinking about this. "I know. I've already had someone keep an eye on Du Mingxian and Ling Silang. They're staying in the same courtyard as them. The two of them came together."

"where is it?"

"In a large courtyard."

Du Mingwei's eyes lit up a bit. "Is it one of those houses where several families live together?"

"Yes, several families live together, but that courtyard is mostly inhabited by scholars. The person I had kept an eye on is the wife of one of the scholars. Give her some money, and things will be done. She used to work with Du Mingxian in the workshop where the accident happened."

Du Mingwei's eyes lit up even more. "Is that the workshop where the accident happened?"

"Ah."

"Then can you think of a way to get Du Mingxian involved in that matter? Once she's involved, she won't be able to live even if she wants to."

Wu Daniu glanced at Du Mingwei with a complicated expression, but did not respond to her words.

Du Mingwei wanted Du Mingxian dead, but he didn't want that. No matter how bad Du Mingxian was, she had been engaged to him before, and besides, Du Mingxian seemed to be quite good-looking.

Once he establishes a connection and gets Du Mingxian out of jail, he can secretly keep her as a mistress.

Thinking this, Wu Daniu tapped his fingers on the table with increasing pleasure.

What are you thinking? Is there any way?

"No," Wu Daniu answered very decisively. "This matter was organized by the Crown Prince. We can't get involved with the Crown Prince's side, nor would we dare to."

Du Mingwei was very disappointed. "What a great opportunity to link Du Mingxian with rebellion. She won't be able to do whatever she wants then."

"The Crown Prince's people have already investigated. Du Mingxian knows nothing. She was only recruited because she is good at needlework. The rest... has been investigated and found out."

"It must be that the people on the Crown Prince's side didn't investigate properly."

Wu Daniu rolled his eyes at Du Mingwei. "Those people are all family members of scholars. This year, their families all have members participating in the imperial examinations. The Crown Prince is now letting go of those people to show everyone his stance. You... if you don't understand, don't talk nonsense."

Du Mingwei was very angry, but she really shut up. She really didn't understand anything, and it would be a waste of time to say anything more. However, she was still unhappy no matter how she thought about it.

"It's a pity."

"Alright, just stay put. I've already told you about Du Mingxian. I'm leaving now."
