Han Yuehua's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, extremely ugly: "He is already useless, the Marquis' Mansion can't rely on him, you are not allowed to bring him back in the future, and I will not recognize this son."
Zhao Chenhan was very happy in his heart, but on the surface he was very panicked: "Big brother was just confused for a moment, please don't say that. Big brother must think that I took his place if he didn't come back. I will go to apologize to him later and beg him to come back."
"No!" Han Yuehua said sternly, "No one of you is allowed to go find him!"
Zhao Chenhan was naturally happier with Han Yuehua's attitude.
Zhao Mingyue and other girls remained silent.
They have no feelings for Zhao Lin and don't care whether Zhao Lin comes back or not.
Only Zhao Mingzhu felt an indescribable feeling in her heart, a little uncomfortable.
Zhao Mingzhu said, "He is now fully preparing for the imperial examination and cannot slack off. That's why he might not come back."
"Imperial Examination? If he hadn't taken it, I wouldn't have gotten sick from anger," Han Yuehua said angrily. "He ruined Han'er and the Marquisate's plans, making the Marquisate a laughing stock. I wish I could kill him!"
Zhao Mingzhu's face changed slightly. She didn't expect that Han Yuehua hated Zhao Lin so much.
Han Yuehua took a deep breath and asked, "How much do you know about that rebellious son's imperial examination?"
"I don't know. He never told any of us." Zhao Mingzhu shook her head.
"No wonder he dared to break off relations with us. It turns out he's grown stronger and thinks he can take the imperial examination and become a scholar."
Han Yuehua sneered: "Doesn't he know that the scholar doesn't even have the qualifications to enter our Marquis' Mansion?"
The private school teachers in the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion are at least Juren. If a scholar wants to teach students, forget it.
"This rebellious son is truly short-sighted. A rotten tree cannot be carved!"
"Do you really think that just getting the first place in the case can make him the top scholar? He is far from being the top scholar."
"Winning three prizes in a row is nothing, winning three prizes in a row is a real skill!"
"He has some talent, but his character is so bad he won't go far!"
"If he were to inherit the Marquisate, it would be a disaster for the Marquisate!"
Han Yuehua said so much in one breath, and finally said: "If he had one-third, no, half, of Han'er's strength, he wouldn't be in this situation now. He thinks he has grown wings, but I will let him know that a chicken can't fly to the sky no matter how strong its wings are."
Zhao Mingzhu was startled and asked quickly, "What do you want to do?"
Han Yuehua didn't answer, but just asked: "What is he doing now?"
Zhao Mingzhu looked at Zhao Mingxiao. It was her people who were staring at Zhao Lin.
Zhao Mingxiao quickly said: "Reading, practicing martial arts, and writing books."
"Writing a book? Something obscene and vulgar like Jin Ping Mei?"
Han Yuehua sneered, "He made all his money writing books, didn't he? Tell Li Xingye that if any more obscene books like Jin Ping Mei appear in Shengjing Prefecture, I'll have the master report him."
Zhao Mingxiao said: "This time it's not..."
"If I say yes, it's true." Han Yuehua brooked no objection. "Besides writing obscene and vulgar things, what else can he do?"
Zhao Mingxiao was silent for a moment, then said, "He's writing this time a story called Journey to the West. Miss Fu has already published the first ten chapters. It's a fantasy novel based on Taoism and Buddhism, with absolutely no pornography involved. It's incredibly popular, even more so than Jin Ping Mei."
"What? Where does he get so many ideas?"
Upon hearing that Zhao Lin had written a new book, a strange tale, Han Yuehua flew into a rage and said without hesitation, "It must be plagiarized. The more popular this novel becomes, the worse it will be for the Marquisate. Immediately notify the Shengjing Prefecture and have this book banned."
Zhao Mingxiao said helplessly, "It really can't be done this time. The last time we banned Jin Ping Mei, we already offended Miss Fu. If we ban it again this time, Minister Fu might think it's our revenge for not accepting him as a disciple, which would be bad for Chen Han."
Han Yuehua calmed down and said angrily, "Just let it go like this?"
Zhao Chenhan suddenly asked, "Brother, how much money can you make by writing a book?"
Zhao Mingya said, "I know this. The price of Jin Ping Mei is 500 taels. Journey to the West has already paid 200 taels. We will pay more later depending on the situation."
"So many?" Han Yuehua frowned.
Just a few hundred taels of silver is nothing to the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion.
There are many industries under the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion. Not to mention anything else, the farm that Zhao Mingyu and Zhao Mingya are fighting for is worth tens of thousands of taels, and the annual output value is stable at around one thousand taels.
Zhao Chenhan’s monthly salary is two hundred taels.
but.
Zhao Lin earned his money through his own ability.
Moreover, he earned this money in just two or three months after leaving the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion without relying on anyone.
More importantly, it seems that you can make more money later.
This is shocking.
You have to know that the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion is a wealthy family. Although they are rich, they also have a lot of expenses in all aspects, and the daily expenses are an astronomical figure.
A few hundred taels of silver may not seem like much, and sometimes it is not even enough to pay for a meal for Zhao Chenhan.
But how long has it been?
More importantly, Zhao Lin’s talent.
Who can be sure that his future won't soar to new heights?
"It's just a novel, and he paid so much money. Does Fu Liqing have too much money to spend?" Han Yuehua said angrily. "Everyone says Fu Chengwang is an honest official, but I think he's just greedy, which is why he lets his daughter spend money so recklessly."
The women were all helpless.
If this gets out, wouldn't it offend Minister Fu?
Zhao Mingzhu quickly asked the servants to leave and forbade anyone to spread the news, otherwise they would all be sold out.
Zhao Mingya suddenly asked, "When the third and fourth sisters went to look for Zhao Lin, Miss Fu was there? Is there something going on between them..."
She didn't say anything else, but everyone present understood.
Han Yuehua's face turned serious when she heard this: "That's right. That rebellious son is so cunning and treacherous that he even hid his talent from us. How could Miss Fu be able to defeat him? She must have been deceived by him and spent money on him."
"Is this rebellious son thinking that by marrying Fu Chengwang's daughter and having someone to back him up, he can come back and inherit the Marquisate?"
"Hmph, I should have understood long ago. He failed to drug Miss Li, and since he couldn't stay in the mansion anymore, he set his sights on Miss Fu. Mingya, you have a good relationship with Miss Fu, remember to remind her not to be deceived by that rebellious son."
Zhao Mingya quickly responded, "Yes."
Han Yuehua's mouth was dry after she finished speaking, so she took a sip of water and said, "Now everything is clear. That rebellious son is just a villain who deceives women!"
When Zhao Mingzhu heard Han Yuehua's words, she didn't know how to explain it.
How terrible prejudice is.
Zhao Mingzhu investigated and found out that Zhao Lin and Fu Liqing met when Zhao Lin left the Marquis' Mansion and went to a bookshop to sell manuscripts.
At that time, he didn't even know that Fu Liqing was the daughter of Minister Fu.
Perhaps, he suffered this kind of prejudice when he was in the mansion, so he couldn't bear it anymore and ran away from home?
Zhao Mingzhu took a deep breath and said patiently, "Isn't this perfect? Zhao Lin is also our brother. If he marries Miss Fu, we will just marry Minister Fu. Isn't that closer than becoming his disciple?"
Zhao Chenhan's expression suddenly turned ugly.
Han Yuehua said as a matter of course: "How can they be the same? Chen Han will inherit the Marquisate in the future, so he can marry Miss Fu. Zhao Lin is not worthy!"
