During my escape from famine, I survived by eavesdropping on the whispers of food.

Qin Shuangshuang then moved closer and asked, "Is what you said really true?"

At this moment, Lin Zheng nodded, "Of course, don't worry. As a court official, I at least know these things. I had already memorized these regulations before I even passed the imperial examination."

Therefore, it must be something they only know.

Qin Shuangshuang finally realized that it seemed she would definitely teach the eldest daughter-in-law a lesson she was right this time.

Everyone looked at Qin Shuangshuang, who suddenly appeared refreshed and radiant.

Lin Zheng asked her curiously, "Why are you so happy when I bring these things up? Is something the matter?"

Qin Shuangshuang then said to him, "You guessed right, it's that fat rich man I just told you about. Before this, he used that contract in his hand to drive me and my family out."

But after what you just said, I'm certain that the contract was fake. Therefore, it's clear that when I go back, I'll be able to regain all the face I lost back then.

Lin Zheng pondered deeply, "I can give Miss Qin a legitimate opportunity here. We've recently been recruiting some soldiers for the government."

Therefore, you may go ahead and seize the yamen for me, and help me reclaim it. If you are truly unable to handle it, I will personally step in and lend you a hand.”

Upon hearing this, Qin Shuangshuang was naturally happy to accept such a good job.

And with the help of the government, they could give the instigator who had previously driven them out a good dressing down.

Qin Shuangshuang nodded and agreed without hesitation.

After the two left, Lu Jun said to Qin Shuangshuang, "I'll help you resolve the matter at the county government office, and then I'll go back to the capital. However, I'll be back in a few days."

Qin Shuangshuang glanced at the muddy soles of his shoes, feigning nonchalance, and said, "Alright, we'll work together from the inside out. If your second mother dares to offend you again, just tell me."

I will definitely not let you suffer any losses.

Hearing her defend him so fiercely, Lu Jun felt a sense of being protected himself. He said to Qin Shuangshuang, "How can I, a man, be protected by your young lady? But what you say makes sense. If you can work together from the inside and outside, it wouldn't be bad if there were some business dealings involved."

We can make a fortune together.

Qin Shuangshuang never expected that Lu Jun would also have such a strong sense of career.

Qin Shuangshuang said, "It's great that you have this idea. I like dealing with men like you who have ideas."

Qin Shuangshuang went to her mother's tent, intending to greet them and inform them of this good news.

Upon entering, after she explained the situation, Uncle Li was overjoyed and said to Qin Shuangshuang, "We never expected that thing to actually be fake. It's also our fault for not being literate enough to understand official documents, which led us to mistake it for something else."

It turned out to be fake. That's good, though. Now let's see how arrogant the eldest branch of the Qin family will be this time.

Let's see what those people who left before do this time!

Qin Shuangshuang said firmly, "Uncle Li, don't worry. I will definitely retaliate against how they treated you this time."

However, Zhou held Qin Shuangshuang's hand and said to her, "Although we have no relation to them anymore, your grandparents are still your father's elders. Please give them some face in the future."

"I didn't want the two elderly people to choke on their food without finishing it; I would feel guilty then."

Qin Shuangshuang understood that, after all, for the sake of her father's reputation, she should treat her grandparents a little bit better, but of course, only a little bit.

No more.

Qin Shuangshuang said, "Then I will go. I believe we can move back to the yamen by tomorrow or this afternoon."

Everyone was overjoyed.

"I never thought that following Shuangshuang would actually be the right decision!"

"That's right! I knew it! Shuangshuang has that ability!"

As soon as Qin Shuangshuang stepped out of the tent, she saw that Lu Jun was already waiting for her there.

Qin Shuangshuang said, "Let's go now."

Lu Jun nodded and said to her, "Official Jin has arranged a carriage for us. Let's go there by carriage."

When they arrived at the door of the house they had knocked on, they saw that the doors of those houses were decorated with red flowers.

Qin Shuangshuang was curious; it seemed they were planning to hold a wedding at home.

Seeing his former teammates bustling around inside, all with happy faces, he probably thought that following Qin Dafang meant having plenty to eat and drink.

Little did they know that their good days were probably coming to an end soon.

Qin Shuangshuang said to Lu Jun, "When we go in later, we need to follow my lead. It would be pointless to just kick them out so easily."

I want to see just how arrogant the eldest wife can be. I love the feeling of being elevated to the highest position and then slapped back down to hell by me.

Lu Jun said, "I know what you're thinking. You won't feel right unless you torment others."

Qin Shuang looked towards the doorway and saw the same two attendants who had previously disliked him.

At this moment, Qin Shuangshuang stepped forward and asked the two of them, "Gentlemen, what's going on inside?"

The two young men remained arrogant, saying to Qin Shuangshuang, "Our master is having a happy occasion today, it's his birthday, so you two better not get in his way."

"Many distinguished guests will be coming to celebrate our master's birthday soon, so I advise you to keep your distance. I'll pour you extra leftover food later."

Qin Shuangshuang was curious; how old was he to be celebrating his birthday?

Sure enough, someone who keeps throwing birthday parties just to make money is the most despicable person, even in my own time, when it comes to giving money as a gift.

Qin Shuangshuang's expression instantly turned serious as she said, "Please inform your master that I have something to tell him."

This matter concerns his reputation, so we urge him to come out and see us as soon as possible.

Or, if you let us in and there's a delay, it's uncertain who will end up kicking whom out later.

The two servants burst into laughter and said to Qin Shuangshuang, "How ridiculous! Don't you listen to what you're saying? Our master is so wealthy and powerful, do you think we need to be subservient to you thugs? Get out of here! Stop making a fool of yourselves with your big talk!"

As she passed by the main house on the bridge, she saw the two people outside and hurriedly twisted her waist.

Now she's dressed so extravagantly, she really looks like a wealthy lady.

As soon as she came out, she said to Qin Shuangshuang, "I thought it was someone else, but it turns out to be my good-for-nothing niece. Is she here begging for food now? Where are your two burdens? If you ask me, my husband's attendant is really good, strong and healthy. I guarantee your mother will love him!"
