After transmigrating, I became a stepmother.

Hearing her say that, Lin Hao was not surprised. Rumors are the hardest to trace because they are passed from word to word. Not to mention ancient times, even in modern society, it is still easy to spread rumors, but it takes a lot of effort to refute them!

Since the person behind the scenes cannot be found for the time being, and the rumors cannot be allowed to continue, the most urgent task is to restore the school's reputation as soon as possible. Otherwise, if the rumors are clarified in time, no one will dare to send their daughters here.

Thinking of this, Lin Kan glanced at Yin Xue: "What are you going to do?"

Yin Xue looked troubled and said, "My mind is actually a bit confused. Even if I do something to prove my innocence, people might not believe me!"

Lin Hao nodded. That was true. People tend to have preconceived notions. Their school wasn't even within everyone's knowledge, so many people didn't believe that such a good thing could fall from the sky. Now, the rumors have confirmed what people thought.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Hao looked at Yin Xue and said firmly, "Instead of waiting here, we should take drastic measures!"

"What do you mean?"

"Since the rumors say that our school will use the students' futures as bargaining chips, why don't we make our stance clear from the start? Let's cooperate with a famous matchmaker in the city, and have her come to our school from time to time to check on the students' daily lives. If the students' families are willing in the future, she will be responsible for arranging marriages for them!"

Yin Xue's eyes lit up: "That's definitely a good idea!"

But they quickly raised another question: "How can we guarantee that people will be willing to cooperate with us?"

Lin Hao didn't dare to make a guarantee, only saying, "Whether she's willing or not depends on what kind of girls our school produces!"

After a moment's thought, Yin Xue understood the key: as long as the student studied well, was of good character and appearance, and had a skill, naturally a family would have many suitors!

Being able to cooperate with the academy means that she can suddenly have a lot of good daughters' marriages at her disposal. Which matchmaker wouldn't be tempted?

She changed her troubled expression and put on a happy face again, praising, "As expected, Madam is truly amazing!"

These were her heartfelt words. From the moment she met Lin Hao to every interaction thereafter, she was deeply moved!

Even her idea of ​​founding this school was influenced by Lin Hao! She thought that as a woman, she shouldn't be inferior to others!

She's already died once, what is there to fear? In life, you have to do something to be remembered!

"It's nothing special, just a bit of cleverness!" Lin Hao couldn't admit that this was actually something he learned from the actions of celebrities in later generations, so he could only brush it off.

Seeing that she didn't want to make a fuss, Yinxue wisely stopped talking, but her admiration for her grew even stronger!

"Oh, and remember, when you're looking for a matchmaker, make sure they have a good reputation. Don't choose one who makes money without any conscience!"

Lin Hao reminded everyone that this idea was hers, and she didn't want to see any woman suffer because of it in the future!

"Okay, I will definitely pay attention!" Seeing her serious expression, Yinxue also straightened her attitude and indicated that she would take it seriously.

"If you can't find the mastermind behind this yourself, why don't you try going to the magistrate's wife? Damaging the school's reputation won't benefit her either!"

Having already come up with one idea, there's no need to worry about another, so Lin Hao naturally wanted to make the most of it.

Yin Xue realized she had fallen into a misunderstanding. In this matter, they and the magistrate's wife were in a relationship of shared prosperity and shared ruin. Perhaps the magistrate's wife was even more anxious than she was. She had indeed lost her mind in her haste!
