Chapter 3 Rebirth 3
"Qiuyue, send someone you trust back to tell Mother and Father not to interfere with Sun Tu's current assessment. Revoke the benefits he previously offered. Let's just wait and see what position our third place winner gets this year."
Seeing Madam smiling like that, Qiuyue knew that Madam was serious this time, and nodded in agreement.
Here we have to talk about Zhao Lingmeng's husband, Sun Tu. He is a typical poor boy, but he is handsome. His father passed away a few years ago. Now he still has his mother Zhou and his younger sister Sun Yue.
Neither of them was a good person. The original owner's first child, Sun Qijing, was raised under Zhou's name in the name of filial piety.
Sun Tu was the top scorer in the imperial examination three years ago. If his parents hadn't been reluctant to let him suffer and marry into a wealthy family, they wouldn't have chosen him. Now Sun Tu is an editor in the Hanlin Academy, a seventh-rank official.
Moreover, the three-year probation period was about to end. At such a critical moment, Sun Tu actually dared to have sex with Aunt Wang. It turned out that the original owner had a very good temper, and Sun Tu, this bastard, got too proud.
"Ask the Marquis' Mansion to send me two maids who are skilled in martial arts. They will be here soon. When the maids arrive, have Qiufang organize people to sort out the account books in the mansion.
Close my private vault and tell the big manager Wang Xing outside to stop all expenses except for those in our Yixinyuan.
Then clean up the empty room next to the second young master in our yard. I want to bring the eldest young master back to live with me." Zhao Lingmeng thought for a moment, thinking that there should be nothing left out, and then he slowly let out a sigh of relief.
"Yes." Qiuyue was very happy to hear what the lady said. But Qiuyue still carefully helped Zhao Lingmeng lie down. Then she went out to do what the lady asked.
Zhao Lingmeng was originally very weak, and fell asleep after lying down for a while after taking the medicine.
As for Qiuyue, after leaving Zhao Lingmeng's room, she immediately found four second-class maids brought from the Marquis' Mansion to guard the door, and repeatedly told them not to let anyone in even if the son-in-law came. After everything was arranged, she went to do the things that the lady had ordered.
The Marquis' Mansion received the message sent by Zhao Lingmeng and immediately took action.
Lord Zhao and his wife loved Zhao Lingmeng dearly, otherwise they wouldn't have let her marry someone of lower status. They were furious that something like this had happened to them.
Lord Zhao immediately sent Prince Zhao (Zhao Lingmeng's older brother) to inform Sun Tu's superiors and colleagues and to revoke all of Sun Tu's previous benefits.
The Marquis' wife even had the maidservants who knew martial arts and their indentures brought back to Zhao Lingmeng on the spot. She even offered two for two, giving four maidservants who knew martial arts. Only the Marquis of Wu'an could be so wealthy.
On that day, Sun Tu's family didn't feel any changes. But the next day, when the male protagonist went to the Hanlin Academy for duty, everything started to go wrong.
In fact, his colleagues in the Hanlin Academy all thought that Sun Tu was a fool. Since he married a noble lady from a wealthy family, he had to pretend to be rich until he became successful.
Besides, she was the legitimate daughter of Marquis Wu'an, and she could be the prince's consort. Now that it had turned out like this, she had completely angered her father-in-law's family. It was simply not worth it.
Sun Tu spent the entire day trembling in the Imperial Academy. It was only after he was dismissed, and after pestering a friend from the same department, that he learned that Marquis Wu'an had made the announcement. It was even clear that Marquis Wu'an had requested an audience with the emperor the previous afternoon and explained the matter. So his image was already set.
When Sun Tu heard his friend say this, he felt like he was struck by lightning. He had expected the Marquis of Wu'an to be angry, but he had never imagined they would go so far.
