Quick Wear: She Whose Negative System Is Broken

Yu Tang stayed for two days to check the accounts and observe the operation of the two houses.

She wrote down any problems or good things that happened.

After finishing in Palm City, the group rushed to the next city without stopping.

The further inland they went, the bigger the problems Yu Tang found.

She could understand that daughters from wealthy families didn't need to learn these things.

But those poor families are afraid that their daughters will not succeed, so why don’t they want to send their children to us?

When they arrived in Zhuzhou, before Yu Tang even got close, he saw a large group of people gathered at the entrance of Yu Tang Ji.

As she was trying to push through the crowd at the door and squeeze in, a few words floated into her ears.

"My brother-in-law is a high-ranking official in the capital."

Yu Tang was delighted when he saw it, because it turned out to be a coincidence that he had met an acquaintance.

The man who was speaking was wearing a robe that didn't fit him well. He had a loud voice and an exaggerated expression, and it was obvious that he lacked confidence.

There was a boy about seven years old with him, who was holding a piece of maltose in his hand, and his face and hands were covered with sticky candy.

He was licking his fingers intently, occasionally glancing at the two people who were arguing.

This man is Yu Songhua’s younger brother Yu Datong, who was brought in by his stepmother. He is only one year younger than Yu Songhua, but he got married two years earlier than Yu Songhua.

He lived a much more comfortable life than Yu Songhua. His stepmother always favored him the most, and she didn't give him much even after she gave birth to a little son.

Yu's father was the same, as if Yu Datong was his own son.

"I'm telling you, if you don't let my son enter the academy, you can't open this academy."

No one around knew him, and was frightened by his words.

Yu Tang found his smug look very annoying and called the servants around him to whisper to him.

"It's not that we don't believe it, but you should tell us what kind of official position your brother-in-law holds."

The servant was hidden in the crowd. Yu Datong looked around but couldn't find the person who was talking to him, so he stretched his neck and shouted.

"I can't tell. His official title is very complicated. Anyway, it's covered by Chestnut on the Tree. You know Chestnut on the Tree? He's a person of the same importance as the Prime Minister."

"You are talking about the Minister of Personnel, right?" someone nearby who knew the situation brought it up.

Yu Datong's eyes wandered. "Yes, yes, Minister of Personnel, I remembered it wrongly."

"Then why did the Minister of Personnel protect your brother-in-law?"

Yu Datong wiped the sweat from his forehead and couldn't think of a reason for a moment. "This, this..."

The attendant received Yu Tang's gaze and continued, "Isn't your brother-in-law the one from the Fang family in Gutou Village, Shanlin County?"

"Why did I hear from my relatives in Beijing that he has become the son-in-law of the Minister of Personnel?"

"You said he was your brother-in-law. Could it be that you are the son of the Minister of Personnel?"

"You, what nonsense are you talking about? My sister is the one in front of him."

Yu Datong didn't expect that someone would expose his past, and he was so anxious that his words were incoherent.

"My brother-in-law said that even if my sister dies, he will always be my brother-in-law."

The onlookers were whispering to each other and pointing at him, obviously no longer believing what he said.

Yu Datong didn't know whether he was embarrassed or ashamed, his face turned red, and before leaving, he said something cruel.

"If you don't arrange for my son to go to the academy, I will come here every day to make trouble and see how you do business."

Seeing that there was nothing exciting to watch, the crowd gradually dispersed.

Yu Tang quietly ordered the guards to follow Yu Datong to investigate his family affairs, and stopped the worried-looking shopkeeper Liu.

Manager Liu was transferred from the capital. He recognized her and bowed to her when he saw her.

Yu Tang quickly pulled him back and said, "There are so many people here, no need to be polite. Tell me what's going on with Yu Datong."

"He wanted to send his son to our academy, but his family was actually in good financial condition. They just built two new rooms last year, so there was absolutely no problem in providing for his child's education."

Shopkeeper Liu is not very smart, but he is honest, rigorous, diligent and never takes things lightly.

"Didn't you inform the authorities?"

Speaking of this, Shopkeeper Liu smiled bitterly.

"I notified them, and the police detained him for less than a morning before releasing him. When I reported it again, the police simply didn't come."

Yu Tang was a little surprised. He originally thought that Yu Datong was just relying on the power of others, but it turned out that he actually had something to rely on? It seemed that Fang Zhien had promised him some benefits.

"Don't worry about it, I'll take care of it. Are there any other problems besides him?"

Yu Tang conducted an on-site investigation and subdivided many rules based on the problems that arose.

It was almost three o'clock in the afternoon when the guard who was sent out to gather information returned.

It turned out that not long after Yu Songhua fled and disappeared that day, the Yu family claimed to the clan members and neighbors in the village that Yu Songhua was unfilial to her mother-in-law and committed suicide after being divorced and sent home.

The coffin was sent directly to the Yu family and no one saw Yu Songhua's body.

It was really disgusting. Yu Tang felt like there was a blockage in his chest and he couldn't breathe in or swallow the air. It was really uncomfortable.

She took Yu Anhe from Cheng Chang, gave Cheng Chang a few instructions, and called all the guards around her over.

Yu Anhe's eyes widened as she watched her mother discuss how to put a sack on someone and beat them.

After Yu Tang finished discussing with everyone, he lowered his head to meet a pair of innocent and clear big eyes, then he covered his little ears with his hands.

"Children, don't listen."

Mom? Is it too late?

The guards came back to report after completing their mission, still wearing those strange clothes and their hair was combed in a weird way, just like the ancient Shamatte.

It takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone, and Yu Datong might have to lie in bed for two hundred days.

In order to prevent other family members from causing trouble, Yu Tang stayed for a few more days after checking the accounts, and took Xiao Zaoer to travel.

As for the government, they might not buy into her identity, so she could only find someone who would buy into it.

She wrote a letter to Ji Qiyu, saying that two hundred days should be enough to settle these matters.

From Zhuzhou, go north and east to Qizhou. Qizhou is located in the south of the Yangtze River, with a prosperous economy and flourishing literary style.

This is also where Ji Qiyu’s maternal grandfather, the Song family, lives.

Visiting the Song family was a sudden idea that Yu Tang had on his way.

Ji Qiyu now only relies on the emperor's favor, but if one day the favor is gone, or if someone else sits in the emperor's position, how should she cope with it?

If there is someone in the court, she can still rely on him.

Cultivating confidants, as she was doing now, took time.

But right now, there is a ready-made family right in front of me.

Yu Tang asked around and found out that after the Song family returned home, Old Man Song took charge of the upbringing and discipline of the clan's young men, and declared that they were not allowed to become officials.

I think he was so angry at the time that he said such harsh words. Fortunately, there is no one in the clan who has any future except his family.

Otherwise, how could the Song family have been so peaceful in the past ten years.

Old Song had a son and a daughter. His daughter was Concubine Wan. He had two grandsons, all of whom were talented in literature. Unfortunately, Old Song did not allow them to take up official positions, so they never took part in the imperial examinations.

Yu Tang wrote a visiting card and went to visit.

Not long after, Mr. Song and his wife came to meet him.

She reached out and handed over the token. She had known Ji Qiyu for a long time, and she always had several items on her that represented Princess Hexi's identity.
