Madam Qin showed a look of relief on her face: "Son! You finally woke up!"

Qin Wenyuan felt a surge of anger in his heart. He didn't expect that in the middle of the night, Old Madam Qin would come to disturb his peace.

"Mom, what are you doing here so late at night?" Qin Wenyuan's life was already full of bitterness, and during the long days in prison, his resentment towards life became even deeper.

He resented Ling Meng, resented Old Madam Qin, and resented Sheng Yunrong even more.

If Sheng Yunrong had given him some support back then, he wouldn't have ended up like this!

By then, won't he have the final say?

Old Madam Qin burst into tears and began to cry to Qin Wen: "My son! What happened to me is so tragic! Now I don't even have a place to stay!"

"What?" Qin Wenyuan was confused. "Mom, what are you talking about?"

Old Madam Qin cried and cursed: "Son, I went to find Master Sheng as you instructed. But that heartless Master Sheng clearly promised to transfer the property to me as soon as possible, but a day has passed and there is no news! The owners and waiters of those inns are all greedy for money! When they saw that I had nowhere to go, they asked for a huge amount of money, and the accommodation fee for one night was twenty taels of silver! How could I bear to spend so much money! Woo, son, my pain is really beyond words..."

Qin Wenyuan was confused: "Mom, what are you talking about? Since you have no place to live, why don't you return to our home? Why don't you return to the Qin Mansion?"

Madam Qin wiped away her tears and explained, "It's all for the purpose of getting the property from Sheng Yunrong! Young Master Sheng said that Sheng Yunrong's property is very popular now, and in order to ensure a smooth transfer, he asked mother to give the Qin family's mansion to him. Mother agreed.

But who would have thought that he has not yet transferred the property to my mother!"

Qin Wenyuan's legs went limp and he fell to the ground, his whole body shaking.

This... this is undoubtedly... being deceived!

"Mother!" Qin Wenyuan shouted hoarsely, emotionally broken, "Do you know how much money our Qin family's mansion would be worth? You actually generously gave it to him for free!"

"How much is it worth?" Old Madam Qin was unmoved and said in a cold tone, "It's only 700,000 or 800,000 taels. When we bought it, it was also this price. But Sheng Yunrong's property is completely different. It is worth tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of taels! How can it be compared with this?"

Qin Wenyuan was so angry that his chest felt stuffy and his face was distorted: "Mother! Go and ask Master Sheng to give you the mansion back!"

"What are you asking for?" Old Madam Qin said in an irritable tone, "Since the deal has already been made, why bother with this?"

Qin Wenyuan was almost dizzy with anger.

Madam Qin continued to do what she wanted: "Son, I came here to ask you to help me solve the problem! You see, Master Sheng is having a hard time cashing out, and I can't bear to spend a huge amount of money to live in that luxurious property... How about... you tell me about your friends and let me stay at their homes for a while! Or, do you have any private money hidden? Tell me quickly so that I can get through this difficult time!"

Qin Wenyuan breathed rapidly, looking at his mother's face that was sometimes confused and sometimes shrewd, and he was almost so angry that he spit out blood: "Mother! Do you know what you are saying? Now you are not thinking about how to get the mansion back, but instead asking for money from your son who is in prison?!"

Old Madam Qin became increasingly anxious: "Qin Wenyuan! What exactly do you mean by this?! Do you have to watch your mother living on the streets to feel satisfied? Tell me quickly! If you have money, take it out!"

Qin Wenyuan forced himself to take a deep breath and tried his best to calm down.

The top priority at the moment is not to blame the mother for her mistakes.

That vicious woman Sheng Yunrong must be forced to return the mansion!

Otherwise, their Qin family will really become penniless paupers!

"Mother! I am penniless now and have no friends in the court! You know that I am talented and they will only be jealous of me and frame me secretly. How dare they make friends with me?" Qin Wenyuan said helplessly.

Madam Qin finally calmed down and sighed, "That's exactly right. Oh! My son! Why are we so unlucky!"

Qin Wenyuan's eyes flashed, and he suddenly remembered something: "Mother, how much silver do you have left now?"

Madam Qin tightly grasped the package in her hand and replied, "There are only two hundred taels left in my mother's family!"

"Two hundred taels..." Qin Wenyuan murmured in a low voice, "Mother, these two hundred taels are enough for my son to sneak out for a day."

"Ah?" Old Madam Qin asked in surprise, "Is this possible?"

"That's true." Qin Wenyuan said firmly, "Today, I accidentally learned a secret. A visitor came to the prison and bribed the jailer with 200 taels of silver. The jailer arranged for someone to replace him, allowing him to be free outside for a day! Mother, we... can also use the same method."

However, Madam Qin did not show much excitement after hearing this. Instead, she swallowed unconsciously and said hesitantly: "But son, I only have the last two hundred taels left. If I use all of it to redeem you, then what should I do with myself?"

Qin Wenyuan suppressed his anxiety and patiently explained, "Mother, have you forgotten that since I can escape from prison temporarily, I will not let you live alone on the streets. I can go with you and ask Mr. Sheng for help, asking him to not only return the Qin Mansion to us, but also give us Sheng Yunrong's property! By then, we will not only own the Qin Mansion, but also a property worth tens of millions of taels of silver!

Once all this falls into our hands, I, your son, will be able to come and go freely at any time, and your mother will no longer need to work personally. She can hire dozens of servants to serve her with just a flick of her finger. "

A gleam of greed flashed across Old Lady Qin's eyes, and she hurriedly asked, "Son, can you really take these assets into your pocket?"

Qin Wenyuan sneered and said confidently: "Of course, those two rich young masters have wealth but no wisdom. Isn't it easy to get money from them?"

Seeing Qin Wenyuan so confident, Old Lady Qin had no choice but to nod and agree: “Okay, I will arrange a day of redemption for you now!”

After paying the ransom, Qin Wenyuan was indeed released.

The jailer glanced at him and warned him, "You must return by this time tomorrow. Otherwise... I will report it to the court and punish you for escaping from prison! You will not even be able to enjoy the last twenty years of your imprisonment and will face direct beheading!"

"Yes, yes, sir!" Qin Wenyuan agreed repeatedly, knowing the jailer's rules well.

The moment he stepped out of the cell, his legs were still shaking.

Unexpectedly... he actually walked out of that gloomy place...

Qin Wenyuan's eyes were bloodshot with excitement.

But time did not allow him to stay any longer, so he could only find a haystack with Old Madam Qin, casually put on his clothes, and rest for a while.
