How dare she pretend to be a good person and protect that bitch in front of the Marquis of Zhenxi and the old lady!

Just because I didn't help her once, that bitch glared at me with cold eyes, which were exactly the same as those of her bitch aunt.

Didn't I kill the six-month-old bastard in her belly? Why was I so hateful? Why should I hate that bastard? She was with her husband day and night, so why didn't she hate him? Seeing that her two elder sisters-in-law had daughters who entered the palace to become queens, she also wanted to have a daughter to enter the palace to become a queen.

But her husband was away from home all year round and only came home for one month every two years, and she only gave birth to three sons in six years.

After she married into the Marquis of Zhenxi's mansion, she raised her husband's two maids as concubines.

Two years later, she made her two maids who came with her as a dowry concubines, but neither of them conceived a daughter, and when they did conceive a son, she aborted the sons.

She already had three sons and didn't need a son. She just wanted a daughter so that their third room could have a daughter.

She also found two concubines for her husband. Although the concubines obeyed her orders, her husband was not at home for most of the year.

That year, he brought back a woman who was pregnant, and her husband slept in her yard every night.

That's why she was so angry that she aborted the daughter in her belly. She regretted it very much!

Fortunately, God was merciful and she finally gave birth to a daughter after giving birth to four sons.

Unfortunately, her daughter was born with a heart disease. The imperial physician said that the heart disease would not be life-threatening, but it would prevent her from having children.

It just so happened that the bitch far away at the border also gave birth to a daughter. At that time, she thought that since her seventeenth child was unable to give birth, she would let the eighteenth bitch give birth for her.

She wanted the Eighteenth Bastard to be the concubine of her beloved Seventeenth, so she generously wrote a letter to her husband and brought the Bastard back to the mansion to add to the family tree.

That bastard was on the family tree, but he didn't come back. How could he make her obey him if he didn't grow up by her side? She could only bring many gifts to the bastard when her husband returned home. He treated her well for seventeen years, and finally moved the bastard.

She secretly went back to the Fan Mansion with her father, but a bastard was always a bastard, and he could never get close to her Seventeen.

So she planned for the bastard to be snatched away by the eldest son of the Yin family, and then she rescued her from the dire straits, but man proposes, God disposes!

When she thought of this, the resentment in the heart of the Third Lady of the Fan Family turned into hatred.

His fingers were tightly clenched into his palms, and hatred slowly seeped out of his heart like venom.

What right does a bastard have to hate himself?

Since she was a useless chess piece, there was no point in pleading for her, so Mrs. Fan San turned her face away and didn't look at Fan Shiba.

After Fan Shiba walked away, she could still hear her stepmother saying, "Old Madam, Lord Marquis, it's late at night, you should go back to the courtyard and rest. Shiba's matter has become public, it's best to let her die in the ancestral hall."

"Idiot, it's not as simple as you think. The matter has already alerted the Ministry of Justice. The Minister of Justice will personally judge tomorrow. If Eighteen dies, how will people outside view our mansion? Will the Third Master let you go if he knows?"

Fan Shiba was relieved when he heard this. She would not die! Leng Shisan sneaked into the Yin Mansion on the orders of their wife. When he was about to find the backyard, he saw the trembling woman, "Who is sneaking around here?"

"Aren't you being sneaky with your face covered?" Aunt Yun said hatefully. She witnessed with her own eyes the Master bringing people to capture Fourth Miss Yin.

He also ordered people to look for her everywhere in the mansion, so she hid behind the rockery in the garden and dared not move.

"I'm an official from the Dali Temple, and I'm here at the Yin Mansion looking for evidence." Leng Shisan replied tactfully.

"Are you a government official? I'm the concubine who was brought into the Yin family by the eldest son of the Yin family, and I want to escape." Aunt Yun didn't know whether it was true or not, so she couldn't care less.

"Oh, you want to escape? Then do you know who else wants to escape? I... the officer wants to find a few more witnesses."

Many people stayed awake that night.

But Wen Qingwan slept soundly. It could be said that she had been sleeping soundly ever since she married into the Marquis's Mansion.

Even when Xiao Jin went to the battlefield, she never lost sleep.

Although she would miss him occasionally, her feelings for him were not deep enough to make her unable to sleep at night because of missing him.

Wen Qingwan woke up at dawn the next day. She had something on her mind, so she called Jinlan to come in and help her wash up.

Just as she was getting dressed, she heard Xiao Yi and her brothers outside the yard shouting in panic, "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, someone is coming from the Dali Temple."

"Madam said that you should go have breakfast first. Don't worry, she will be here soon." Jinlan ran out to comfort everyone.

Wen Qingwan looked in the mirror. She was wearing a crimson dress with a weeping crabapple tree outlined in golden thread at the end, which was quite eye-catching.

She drew the pattern of the clothes herself, and Xiao Yi helped her make it. The material was the newly made brocade by Xiao Laosi.

With every step she took, four colors of light flashed, and on her head she wore a gold hairpin inlaid with glazed glass, which was completely different from her usual plain and quiet appearance.

Wen Qingwan should have been so radiant and brilliant, but she was suppressed by her father and mother since she was a child, so her radiance was restrained.

The Wen family said that Mingzhu didn't like anyone being prettier than her, so three generations of the Wen family forced her not to wear brightly colored clothes.

Her grandmother and mother taught her from a young age that she should dress simply and modestly, and be gentle and not too ostentatious.

Now that she has severed her ties with the Wen family, she should be the way she likes, bright and outspoken.

When she brought Jinlan into the hall, the Xiao family members were already standing in the hall, waiting for her anxiously.

There was a depressing atmosphere in the hall because of the presence of several officials from the Dali Temple. When they saw Wen Qingwan, everyone smiled.

Young boys and girls came forward to greet her: "Sister-in-law, you look so beautiful today!"

"Sister-in-law, can you take me there?"

"My sister-in-law is going to the Dali Temple today, so she can't take you there. I'll take you to the farm another day."

Wen Qingwan said this with a smile on her face. Despite everyone's surprised and envious looks, she felt nothing in her heart.

"Wan'er, father almost didn't recognize you." Father Xiao said exaggeratedly.

When the officials from the Dali Temple entered the mansion, he realized that their Hou Mansion and the Yin Mansion had started a war!

Whether he can defeat the Taifu Mansion depends on his eldest daughter-in-law. His two sons are not officials, and if one of them fails, he will be thrown into jail.

This is no joke! Wen Qingwan said softly, "Father, don't worry. My second and third brothers are brave and righteous. I will definitely bring them back safely."

"Wan'er, are you sure?" Old Madam Xiao asked worriedly.

Wen Qingwan did not answer directly, "Grandma, you can eat your breakfast without worry. Brother Guancha, why don't you also have some breakfast in our mansion before leaving?"
