In order to eat, I signed a contract with the system

Qin Wanrong didn't know that the rabbit she was waiting for had already appeared, but she just didn't notice it. But fortunately, it was still early, and there were benefits to discovering it, and there were benefits to not discovering it.

As Qin Wanrong and her two servants officially settled down in Hanshan Temple, news about the Dongchang Marquis Mansion gradually spread in Bianjing City. As the rumor fermented, the image of Qin Wanrong, the protagonist of the rumor, the eldest daughter of the Dongchang Marquis Mansion, who was forced to leave the mansion by her unscrupulous brother and sister-in-law in the name of mourning and had to go to the temple to practice asceticism, also spread.

It has to be said that the image of "poor orphan girl" is not a good thing for a daughter of a marquis like Qin Wanrong. After all, the world is like this. A woman's marriage has to be considered based on her status, dowry and family background. Although Qin Wanrong has a noble status, she is not liked by her brothers and sisters. She is destined to have no one behind her and her dowry will not be much. She is a completely superficial marriage candidate and is completely unwelcome by the ladies of wealthy families.

Fortunately, Qin Wanrong now has a goal, and her goal does not care about these things, otherwise she would be speechless. However, rumors not only brought Qin Wanrong a "pitiful" image, but also objective reputation. No matter how bad the rumors were, the name of Qin Wanrong, the third daughter of the Dongchang Marquis's Mansion, actually appeared in other people's mouths many times. The wider the rumors spread, the more frequently Qin Wanrong's name appeared in other people's mouths. The more frequently Qin Wanrong's name appeared, the higher her reputation value in the reputation system.

Qin Wanrong sat in front of the window copying scriptures, on the one hand to practice Yixiu's calligraphy skills, on the other hand to maintain her reputation as a filial son. Since she said she was praying for her parents, she naturally had to leave some "evidence" to prove it.

While Nanny Xing was washing clothes and the clerk went to the temple to get food, Wanrong opened the reputation system. Half a month had passed since she left Dongchang Marquis Mansion and came to Hanshan Temple. The reputation value in the reputation system had also increased from 31 to , which was about ten times higher. Wanrong was very satisfied with this. She couldn't control her inner joy and smiled very obviously.

At this moment, the clerk came in from outside with a bitter face. Seeing Wanrong smiling, the clerk's expression became even more sad. The young lady knew nothing and could still find joy in misery, but what if the young lady knew the rumor?

When the clerk went to get food, he happened to hear the pilgrims mentioning the Dongchang Marquis Mansion. Out of uneasiness, the clerk deliberately slowed down his pace and followed the pilgrims so that he could hear all the rumors about the Dongchang Marquis Mansion clearly.

At first, when the clerk heard those people saying that the new Dongchang Marquis and his wife were cold-blooded and heartless, he nodded in agreement. But as he listened, he heard those people talking about their own young lady, "filial but pitiful", "sensible but filial", "strong but pitiful". In short, no matter what, she was pitiful. After that, the clerk could no longer agree.

How can a daughter of a marquis have a good reputation if people only think she is pitiful? Without a good reputation, how can a young lady marry a good family in the future? How can a young lady not be sad if her daughter is so gentle, intelligent, and beautiful?

Qin Wanrong smiled as she looked at Wenshu. She could see the redness in the corners of her eyes, which was the trace of crying. The smile on Wanrong's face disappeared completely. She stood up and grabbed Wenshu, and asked seriously: "Wenshu, has anyone bullied you? Tell me, I will avenge you!"

The clerk had originally made up his mind not to let Qin Wanrong know the rumor, and he had managed to hold back his tears with great difficulty. But Wanrong's sudden question made the clerk unable to hold back his tears.

How could such a good lady have such a miserable life?

"Woo, woo, woo, miss, your life is so hard! Miss."

The clerk cried pitifully, leaving Qin Wanrong confused. Her life couldn't be that hard, could it? Qin Wanrong thought uncertainly.

"Alright, alright, don't cry, clerk. Your daughter is the third daughter of the Dongchang Marquis's mansion. She has a noble status that most people can't compare to. How can she be so miserable? Don't worry, don't cry, don't cry."

I am still too young to tell Wenshu and Nanny Xing about my plan. I wonder if the rumors that spread some time ago made Wenshu so sad?

While Qin Wanrong was still comforting the clerk who was sad for her, Nanny Xing, who had gone to the back mountain to wash clothes, came back. The good news was that the clothes were all washed, but the bad news was that Nanny Xing also came back crying.

"Oh, my lady, my poor lady."

"What should I do in the future when I meet such a heartless brother and sister-in-law? Wuwuwu..."

"Madame Xing, what's wrong with you?" Qin Wanrong was in a state of panic. What on earth did this rumor say about her? Why did Wenshu and Madame Xing come back like this?

"My lady, I heard from the maids in the old lady's courtyard of the Li Mansion that it is rumored in Bianjing that the young lady was driven out of the Dongchang Marquis' Mansion."

"Ah, about this, aren't you clear about it? We came to Hanshan Temple on our own initiative, we were not driven out!" Although they are essentially the same, Qin Wanrong couldn't say that, and hurried to explain.

"But, but we have been out for half a month, and no one from the Marquis' Mansion has come to visit us."

"And the rumors in Bianjing City are that the furniture and decorations in the young lady's courtyard have all been sold off by the Marquis and his wife!"

"What?" Qin Wanrong was really surprised. She could guess that after she left, Lord Qin and Li, the stingy and money-loving couple, would definitely find a way to steal things from her yard. However, she did not expect that the couple would actually pawn things from their yard.

This didn't happen in the previous life? Did Lord Qin and Li completely give up their reputation? Qin Wanrong couldn't figure it out. In her previous life, little Qin had been in mourning in the Dongchang Marquis's mansion. She was treated badly except for food and clothing, but it didn't turn out to be so ugly.

What Qin Wanrong didn't know was that the reason why she didn't make such a mess in her previous life was because Li took away all the valuable things in Xiao Qin's courtyard in the name of mourning. With the income, she naturally didn't have to pawn things. In this life, all the valuable things in Qin Wanrong's courtyard were put into the space and taken away. Li and his wife came to the courtyard with great interest to dig things out, but they couldn't dig out any valuable things. In anger, they did something stupid.

The image of Qin Wanrong as "pitiful" spread throughout the whole of Bianjing, and even the emperor in the palace heard about it. After hearing about this, the emperor looked impatient. He had long been dissatisfied with these redundant mansions of marquises and barons. These families with titles did not engage in production, and no one in the mansions went to court. They only indulged in pleasure and became parasites of the Song Dynasty.

"Humph, the Dongchang Marquis Mansion is really..."

The emperor had long wanted to remove these incompetent nobles. Now he was even more dissatisfied when he heard that the new marquis of Dongchang Marquisate had disregarded the relationship between brother and sister and drove the eldest sister out of the house as soon as her parents died.

"One day, sooner or later, I will ask these nobles..."
