She loses if she divorces, the reborn mistress only divorces her husband
Chapter 56 Pretending to be stupid
This time it was Lin's turn to be surprised, "Jingwan, how did you know?"
Li Jingwan's eyes were filled with strong hatred. "Qin Changzhou said that my elder brother and my younger brother fell off the cliff during the battle, but in fact, he pushed us down with his own hands."
"Fortunately, God has eyes. At that time, a soldier witnessed Qin Changzhou's crime, but he was already seriously injured at the time, and no one would believe him if he told them. So he wrote it down before he died and asked someone he trusted to give it to me. That person didn't find me until some time ago."
She couldn't tell anyone about her rebirth, so she could only find an excuse to tell the truth.
"Chongxiao! My son!" Lin broke down and cried, "Those beasts in Wu'an Marquis' Mansion have harmed you, and your mother has harmed you..."
Li Jingwan closed her eyes and let the tears flow.
The Marquis' Mansion imprisoned them in this cannibalistic place and also harmed their loved ones.
It was already bright outside, and voices could be heard faintly. Li Jingwan wiped her tears and whispered, "Madam, please don't be sad for now. The fact that you are awake must not be discovered by anyone except Cui Yu Bi Tao and me."
Upon hearing this, Lin stopped crying and nodded repeatedly, with a tearful tone in her voice.
"Jingwan, Chongxiao and your brother can't die in vain. Even if I tell what happened back then and get beheaded for deceiving the emperor, I will avenge Chongxiao."
"Their deaths will not be in vain." Li Jingwan said firmly, "Don't worry, I will definitely take revenge."
"Do you still remember the person who came to me to deliver a message three years ago?"
Lin shook her head. "We only met once at the gate of the mansion. After that, he was sent away by the old lady and I never saw him again."
"Besides you and Madam Qin, who else knew about the child exchange?"
"Po Ma knew. She was the one who delivered me and said in person that I gave birth to a daughter. But she had long been bribed by Old Madam Qin. When I was out of confinement, I secretly went to look for her, and the neighbors said that Po Ma and her family had moved away a long time ago."
"Who else might know about this?" Li Jingwan was a little anxious.
There must be witnesses to prove what happened back then.
Lin thought for a moment and named someone, "Mother Zhang."
"Mother Zhang must know." Lin said with certainty, "She was the one who took my daughter away from Ma Wenpo back then."
"She knows." Li Jingwan agreed.
Mother Zhang was a maid that Old Madam Qin brought from her natal home. She was very trusted and helped Old Madam Qin do many bad things.
For example, during the three years that Lin was imprisoned, it was all Zhang's mother who was responsible.
"But she only listens to Madam Qin. If..."
As Lin was speaking, Bi Tao's deliberately raised voice was heard from outside, "Madam, why are you here?"
"I heard that the eldest lady had an emergency illness last night. I came to see her. Where is your wife?"
"Madam just went in."
Li Jingwan and Lin were startled and looked at each other.
Li Jingwan said quickly, "Madam, you can't let her know that you are awake. You have to continue pretending to be crazy."
"I understand." Lin wiped away her tears and picked up the medicine bowl beside the bed. "I have been crazy for three years. I am the best at pretending to be crazy and stupid."
The moment the door was pushed open, Li Jingwan stood up and shouted, "Madam, what are you doing? Put your things down."
"Go away, go away!" Lin shouted, "Go! Go!"
"Don't throw it!" Li Jingwan pretended not to know that Old Madam Qin had come in, and scolded, "You lunatic, if you dare to throw it at me, I will tie you up."
As she spoke, she retreated, turned around and saw Old Madam Qin, her face changed, "Old Madam."
Madam Qin poked her head in and asked, "What happened to Lin?"
"The Madam has gone mad again."
Just as he finished speaking, the medicine bowl hit the screen and fell to the ground with a cracking sound.
Both Old Madam Qin and Mother Zhang were shocked.
Li Jingwan hurriedly said, "Old Madam, please get out quickly. The eldest Madam sometimes gets mad and smashes things. Be careful not to hurt you."
The sound of thrashing was heard again in the room, accompanied by Lin's crazy screams.
Madam Qin didn't dare to stay any longer, "Go, get out quickly."
When they arrived at the flower hall, the maid brought the teacup and Li Jingwan took it and handed it over personally.
"Madam, please have some tea. I'm sorry I scared you just now."
"Has Lin always been like this?" asked Old Madam Qin.
"Yeah." Li Jingwan sighed helplessly.
"You just saw that the Madam is in a state of flux. She was sitting there blankly when I came in. I wanted to test whether she had a fever, but she suddenly pushed me and even threw the medicine bowl at me."
"Madam, why don't we let the first lady move back to the old courtyard..."
"Jingwan." Old Madam Qin interrupted her, "I know the eldest lady has caused you trouble, but you are the mistress of the Marquis's family. If you don't take care of it, no one else can. Do you expect your unreliable mother-in-law to take care of it?"
"The eldest lady is Chongxiao's mother. Prince Jing has sent people to visit her twice. If Prince Jing knew that you, the mistress, didn't care about her, and then blamed her, wouldn't the Marquisate be responsible?"
Li Jingwan lowered her head after hearing these words. "Don't worry, old lady. I will take good care of the first lady."
There was obvious impatience in his tone.
Old Madam Qin picked up the teacup and drank tea to hide the smile on her face.
She came to see it in person today, and it was just as Aunt Tong said, Lin had gone completely crazy and there was no need to worry about her anymore.
And now that Li Jingwan has taken over, she can forget about getting rid of this hot potato of the Lin family.
If anything happens to Lin in the future, it will be her responsibility.

In the evening, Aunt Tong was called to Youlanju.
"Greetings, Madam." Aunt Tong knelt down politely and said, "Thank you, Madam, for letting me move back."
A few days ago, she moved back to Hexiangyuan from Yuzhuyuan, and even though Tang Qiaoyin was pregnant, she had to return to the worst Yuzhuyuan.
She once again confirmed that joining Li Jingwan was the right choice.
If she helps Li Jingwan with things, Li Jingwan will give her tangible benefits.
"You have already thanked me for this, there is no need to mention it again. Stand up, I have something to ask you." Li Jingwan motioned for her to sit down.
"Aunt Tong, do you know much about Madam Zhang?"
When Mother Zhang was suddenly mentioned, Aunt Tong was a little surprised, but still nodded.
"I used to work in Fuhe Hall as a maidservant beside Old Madam Qin. I had a lot of contact with Madam Zhang, so I do know her a little bit."
"Tell me."
Aunt Tong said, "I'm sure the young lady can see that Madam Zhang is very greedy for money. She flatters the powerful and often bullies the maids in the mansion. She has also deducted my monthly salary several times in the past. But she is a maid brought by Old Madam Qin from her mother's home. She is deeply trusted by Old Madam Qin, and no one dares to go against her."
"Do you know about her family situation?" Li Jingwan asked.
Aunt Tong nodded, "Mother Zhang lost her husband early in life and had only one son named Jiang Xing. He used to work in the mansion, but relying on his relationship with Mother Zhang, he acted tyrannically in the mansion, bullied the maids, and embezzled a lot of money."
"Before you married in, Jiang Xing's corruption was discovered by the eldest young master, who wanted to send him to the government. It was Madam Zhang who asked the old lady to save him, and in the end, he was only kicked out of the mansion."
Li Jingwan seized on this point and asked, "Is he still in the capital?"
"Yes." Aunt Tong nodded.
"Jiang Xing is lazy and gluttonous. I heard he's a gambler. He hasn't worked since he was kicked out of the mansion. His family is supported by Madam Zhang. I saw him come to the mansion to ask Madam Zhang for money a while ago."
It seems that Zhang's mother's greed for money is also related to her useless son Jiang Xing.
However, this gave her an opportunity to strike.
