Quick Wear: I've never been a good person

Chapter 242 The Little Scholar Killed by His Classmates (26)

A few years later, Lord Yang passed the imperial examination and became the top scorer.

When he came back to worship his ancestors, he said that he already had a lover.

Later we learned that the woman was the daughter of the Earl of Qingyang.

That rich young lady looked sickly. Your great uncle and aunt didn't like her when they first met her.

But the Qingyang Earl's Mansion was powerful, and since Lord Wang Yang was willing, they had no choice but to accept it.

But after marrying her, I realized that she was not fit to be a wife at all, she was just a spoiled young lady!

When I first offered tea to your great aunt after my marriage, she said something extra: "You must strictly observe the virtues of a wife and have children for the Yang family as soon as possible." Then she fainted.

From now on, she will visit you every morning and evening. Your aunt just needs to let her get up a little later.

She immediately covered her chest, feeling pain here and there, or she covered her face and cried.

Then the old women around her started to yell and say that your great aunt was deliberately bullying her daughter-in-law, which made your great aunt so angry that she almost fainted.

I don’t know if she has the ability to predict the future or for some other reason.

The most important thing is that Lord Yang would see this every time, and he would contradict your great aunt for her several times.

Later, your great aunt had no choice, after all, she gave birth to a stupid child.

I had no choice but to hand over the household supplies in the mansion to her and take me to hide in her dowry farm.

Your great aunt is so kind to me, it’s no exaggeration to say that she treats me with all her heart.

Worried that I would become a person like Yu Yunning, he specially hired a female teacher into his house at a high price to teach me etiquette, music, chess, calligraphy and painting.

I was scared by what happened at the Zheng family before, and I wanted to learn some self-defense skills.

She didn't mind my playfulness and even invited a martial arts master to teach me and the maids around me how to practice martial arts.

It was not until I grew up that your great aunt took me back home to socialize.

But only then did we realize that my reputation outside had been almost ruined by that bitch named Yu.

She kept saying that I was a sickly person and had a destiny that would bring bad luck to my parents. Your great aunt was so angry that she stayed in bed for a whole month.

I had to comfort him and tell him that if he really couldn't get married, he would just not marry and establish a household name.

I have money anyway, so how can I live any life?

But your great aunt doesn't think so. She will be more interested in socializing after he recovers from his illness.

Later, I finally found a man who didn't care that I was sickly or that I had a reputation as an unlucky person.

As a result, that bitch still couldn't tolerate me, and actually... secretly gave me the drug, and even viciously found a groom to humiliate me.

Fortunately, because I suffered a loss when I was a child, your uncle gave me a dagger for self-defense when he was still alive, and I never leave it with me.

At that time, I stabbed the groom to death with a knife.

Then I was very angry, and because I was controlled by the drugs, I also... did stupid things.

That day, I shamelessly sneaked into Lord Yang's room and drugged him too!"

Although they had both heard her say it once before, the shock they felt when they heard it again was no less than before.

Of course, this also includes Yang Ruqing and Yang Zhong who were eavesdropping outside.

Zheng Sangning was completely immersed in his own thoughts and continued to recount the grievances he had felt over the years.

"Then that bitch turned the tables and accused me of being shameless and seducing my cousin.

That's not all, she actually went to your great-aunt's house and started talking nonsense, and just gave your great-aunt...

I felt so guilty at that time. If I had known that the crazy woman would make your great aunt angry to death, I would rather follow the coachman and would never do such a wrong thing.

But that’s not all. After your great aunt’s funeral, I stayed in the yard to mourn for her.

Two months later, she found out that she was pregnant.

However, the vicious woman used the same trick again and drugged me. When I woke up, I found myself in a human traffickers' carriage.

I used the dagger to stab myself several times before I regained consciousness and killed the human trafficker. Later, I was rescued by your father.

Your father is a good man. He took me to see the doctor, accompanied me when I gave birth to the child, included the child in his family tree, gave me his surname, and prevented me from being involved in rumors.

So Shuang'er, remember this: you are Yang Ruyong's child for the rest of your life, and no one else will recognize you!

Shuangshuang knew Zheng Sangning's worries, so they naturally had to go along with her.

"Don't worry, Mom. My father's name is Yang Ruyong, and I will be that for the rest of my life!"

Yang Ruqing outside heard this and slowly walked out.

He knew that he definitely couldn't take his son away, let alone his cousin.

Do you regret it? Yes, I do.

When his mother resolutely left home and went to the farm, he regretted it.

You shouldn't just be attracted by Yu Yunning's appearance and want to marry her.

As a result, not only did he harm his mother, but he also harmed his cousin.

Sure enough, the next day Zheng Sangning directly rejected Yang Ruqing.

"My uncle and aunt's graves are here. I don't want to leave them."

In the re-examination in April, both of them passed the examination and became scholars, but Zhang Junjie unfortunately failed.

The two agreed to meet at Suzhou Jingyou Academy next year.

Shuangshuang and Zheng Sangning then packed their bags and went to the Jingyou Academy in Suzhou to study.

Right next to the academy, I rented a storefront with a backyard.

When they went to the academy together, Zheng Sangning would make some snacks and sell them in the shop.

The business is pretty good and can usually cover the normal expenses of the mother and son.

That night, Shuangshuang was studying in her room when she suddenly heard a knock on the door.

"Little Orange, go and see what's going on."

"It's Lord Yang Xingru and his steward Yang Zhong."

Both of them frowned, "What is he doing here again?"

At this time, Zheng Sangning had already opened the door, and his brows were furrowed when he saw the people outside.

"What are you here for?"

Yang Ruqing smiled flatteringly at Zheng Sangning, "Cousin, since Shuang'er has come to the capital to study, why don't you bring him home to live?"

Zheng Sangning rolled his eyes and chased the man away without giving him any face.

"This is his home! Alright, alright, if you have something to say, just say it. If not, get out of here quickly, or else someone will see you and say something bad!"

Seeing Zheng Sangning like this, Yang Ruqing sighed deeply.

He took a red wooden box from Yang Zhong and placed it on the table.

"Cousin, when you came to the Yang family, you brought back all of my aunt's dowry.

You have been missing for these years, and I have given your dowry to Yang Zhong to take care of.

I'll sort it all out for you when I get back. Take some time to take over those shops and farms."

When Zheng Sangning heard that it was her mother's dowry, she walked over and opened the box.

Inside was a large box full of 200,000 taels of silver, some house deeds and land deeds, as well as the indentures of some maids and servants.

Zheng Sangning closed the box again and pushed it towards Yang Ruqing.

"You can take it back. I remember my mother's dowry was not that much."
