After the zombies traveled through time, they were tricked by the villain into becoming a stepmother

Everything that happened next seemed to go smoothly as a matter of course.

With the large amount of property seized from the Yang family as solid evidence, and many bandits and former concubines of the Yang family coming forward to identify some details, even though Yang Youde repeatedly argued, he was eventually convicted of the crime of supporting bandits and accepting bribes.

Li Cunxin was even bold enough to report the case directly to the capital without going through Anfeng Prefecture. After the approval came down, all that awaited him was the execution of his entire family.

Zhou Chengguang's family was also imprisoned for robbing the Lin family's property and murdering the Lin family's young daughter. As for how to deal with them, it all depends on the victim's mind. However, according to Lin Youan's revengeful nature, it seems that this so-called uncle's family will not get any good results.

After everything was settled, Lin Youan went to see Zhou Yuhe once. That day, he stood outside the cell, staring at his biological mother in the cell, standing there in silence for a long time.

The wife of the county magistrate, who used to be dressed in luxurious attire, had become dishevelled and haggard after just a short period of time in prison.

Feeling as if someone was staring at him, he turned around with hope on his face and saw that it was indeed Lin Youan standing outside.

Zhou Yuhe was as ecstatic as a drowning man who saw a floating log. She rushed towards the prison door and reached out to grab his sleeve, but the other party took a step back and dodged.

"Ang'er, Ang'er, please save me! Mom is innocent! I have never participated in the things that Yang Youde committed, and I have never murdered your father.

An Ge'er, believe me, Mom really doesn't know anything about this!"

Seeing her words come from the heart and hearing her voice sad and mournful, I have to say that she is really a beautiful woman. Even in such a situation, she is still beautiful when she cries.

"Do you think I look like a fool?"

There was no moving expression on Lin Youan's face, but the emotions in his eyes were so complicated that he himself didn't even know if it was an emotion intertwined with hatred and love, and it was strongly tearing apart all his past.

"Do you regret it?"

His voice was filled with resentment and sobs.

"In fact, I have never understood what is wrong with my father? What is wrong with me and Qianqian? Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. Why do you do this? Why do you treat us like this?"

"I really didn't!"

She has a beautiful face, and I feel pity for her when I see her crying.

"I really didn't know that Yang Youde would actually murder your father, and I didn't know that Zhou Chengguang, driven by jealousy, would deliberately leak your father's route to the capital to take the exam to the bad guys.

"Ang'er, he is not only your father, but also my husband who I treat as my equal. How could I possibly conspire with others to murder my husband? I really have no idea!"

At this moment, she seemed to have become the good wife and mother she once was. Unfortunately, every word she uttered was full of her own innocence.

"Also, the time when Xianxian was sold, I really didn't know about it at the time. I only found out about it after your second cousin let it slip.

But at that time, you had already taken Xianxian back to the Lin family. I saw that you were not seriously injured, so I did not make things difficult for the Zhou family. After all, they are also my family members...

An Ge'er, I admit that I have let you and Qian Qian down. I shouldn't have abandoned you two and remarried. I really know I was wrong. Please save me.

I will never make such a mistake again. I will be a good mother to you and Qianqian. I will love you twice as much and make it up to you for the rest of my life. I swear!"

Look, it was this kind of motherly and weak heart that deceived him for so many years. Lin Youan didn't know whether to praise her for her talent in acting or to hate her for treating him like an ignorant child at this time.

“You don’t know?

Haha, as the old saying goes, no one knows a child better than his mother. The same is true in reverse. I know you as well as you know me.

Given your intelligence and ability, even if you really didn't know at the beginning, wouldn't you be able to detect a little clue afterwards? Otherwise, why did Yang Youde marry you?

So, look me in the eye now, dare you say it again? You really didn't know anything about my father's death from beginning to end!"

This handsome little face has gradually revealed sharp contours, and the bookish air between his eyebrows and the shrewdness and wisdom are clearly very similar to Lin Yuanzhou at the beginning!

Zhou Yuhe was stunned by the shout. In those familiar eyes and eyebrows, she seemed to see her indifferent and cold deceased husband again.

It is this heart-pounding look that always stares at me when I wake up in the middle of the night!

She turned her head slightly in panic to avoid that gaze.

With just this small action, the tears hidden in Lin Youan's eyes finally fell.

"You do know."

He was sure of it in his heart, but he still came here without giving up. Why was it necessary?

With trembling fingers he fiercely wiped away the tear from the corner of his eye, then he curled up the corners of his mouth into a sneer.

"Don't come begging me. I won't save you. This is the road to wealth and honor that you chose, so just walk it peacefully."

"Lin Youan, you can't do this! I gave birth to you and raised you, I am your biological mother!

If you don't save me, you will be labeled as unfilial in the future. Don't you want to study and take the imperial examination? Don't you want to revive the family like your father?

Then you save me, you have to save me!"

Zhou Yuhe turned her head abruptly, there was no trace of weakness on her face anymore, and her eyes staring at him were filled with hatred and madness.

"Lin Youan! I am your biological mother, you cannot be unfilial, otherwise you will be condemned and despised by everyone in the future!"

"Oh, it doesn't matter. I don't care. If I am filial to you, then what should I do to my father when I go down to see him?"

Lin Youan gave her one last deep look, then turned around and walked out.

"You should know that I am the evil creature that crawled out of your belly, so I naturally inherit your selfishness and coldness."

"Stop, don't leave! You are my son, you should save me, your mother!

Hahaha, why can't I remarry? Lin Yuanzhou is already dead, I can never be the wife of the top scholar again. He owes me this!

Since God gave me such a beautiful face, how can I waste this wonderful life? I just want to make my life better, what's wrong with me?

Come back here, you evil creature! If you don't save me, Lin Youan, I will become a ghost and haunt you, so that you will never have peace in your life!

Did you hear me? Come back soon, wuwuwu, Ange'er, please, mother, please! Wuwuwu, my son..."

Lin Youan did not stop. He walked out of the prison step by step, leaving all the curses and pleas into the broken past.

When he walked to the door, he found that his mother was squatting on the ground holding Kankan, looking at something.

The winter sun seemed very warm, so dazzling that he could not see clearly for a moment. He could only hear the two of them talking and laughing in the distance.

Lin Youan, who looked pale, also curled the corners of his mouth, took a deep breath to calm his emotions, and then quickly ran towards his warm future.
