After the rebirth of the Marquis's mistress, she smiled at the scumbag's family

Lin Wan'er knelt down angrily, rubbing her head while gritting her teeth and saying, "Ze'er has been studying very hard these days, but the teacher in the clan school is average. He himself was in his forties before he passed the imperial examination. How could he possibly teach someone who ranked second or third in the imperial examination? But the quality of the schools outside varies. I would like to ask you to think of a way to send him to the White Deer Academy."

Lu Jingting pinched her chin hard and smiled playfully, "White Deer Academy only accepts legitimate children. Everyone in the capital knows that Lu Ze's biological mother is my former 'concubine' Lin. Is he worthy?"

Lin Wan'er felt like her jaw was about to be crushed. "I can't go to Bailu Academy! What about the Imperial Academy Youth Hall? Can I ask the old prince to help?"

Whether it is the Bailu Academy or the Imperial College Youth Hall, they are both famous institutions of learning in the Dali period, and many high-ranking officials have studied there.

Those who went there to study were either gifted and admitted as an exception, or were of noble birth.

If he could study with them and become friends with them, Ze'er would have helpers in the future.

Lin Wan'er really hoped that her son could take the imperial examination and pursue a career in officialdom so as to win an imperial decree for her, but she also wanted to win back her son's heart more by doing so. After all, her health was damaged and she would never be able to get pregnant or have children again.

She pounded the ground unwillingly, "It's all my fault. If you want to hate me or blame me, just come to me. But Ze'er is still young, and we can't delay his future!"

"Besides, there are many people in the clan school who bully Ze'er. They either splash ink on his clothes or knock over his food...I feel really bad for him!"

During the Dali period, anyone who wanted to enter the officialdom through imperial examinations or who was devoted to literature, knew the importance of the Ningguo Mansion and Grand Tutor Xiao.

Because of what happened to Lu Jingting's family, many people in the Lu clan were affected. Not to mention taking part in the imperial examinations, they were often pointed at when walking on the street or attending literary gatherings. They had suffered, so naturally they had to make up for it.

The old ones picked on the old Prince of Zhennan and the old lady, the young ones picked on Lu Jingting, and the youngest ones tortured Lu Ze.

Therefore, over the past six months or so, the masters, old and young, of the Zhennan Palace have been living in dire straits.

"Do you regret it?" Lu Jingting looked at her with interest. "If you had behaved honestly, I would still be the prince, Xiao Yunxi would still be the prince's consort, Lu Ze and Lu Yuan would still be legitimate sons and daughters, and the White Deer Academy and the Imperial Academy Youth Hall would be a matter for Yunxi to decide. As for the top three places in the imperial examination, the Grand Tutor and the Duke of Ning would just raise their hands and they would be awarded. Why would you need to beg me on your knees?"

Lin Wan'er lowered her head. Does she regret it?

When I was being humiliated on the broken bed in the brothel, I felt regretful for a moment, but what good would regret do?

If she didn't take the initiative to climb into Lu Jingting's bed, when she got older, she would definitely be paired with a steward or a servant and continue to be a slave. Her children would also be slaves, and her descendants would all be slaves.

Although she is only a concubine now, she is also included in the family tree and is no longer a slave.

Although Lu Ze and Lu Yuan are still born out of wedlock, as Lu Jingting's only children, they still have a future. At least it is much better than being slaves since birth.

"I don't regret it!"

Of course Lu Jingting knew that she would not regret it. This woman always knew what she wanted and would do anything to achieve her goal.

"The dean of Bailu Academy is a student of Grand Tutor Xiao. Do you think grandfather has the face to persuade them to accept Lu Ze?"

"Your son is so good no matter how you think of him, but in terms of talent and hard work, he is not even half as good as Zhan'er."

"With such qualifications and background, even if you go to Bailu Academy to sweep the floor, they won't accept you!"

"No matter how much you daydream, it will never come true!"

Lin Wan'er was almost mad at him, "Then can't you think of a solution? A young master from the Zhennan Palace can't even go to a college, don't you feel ashamed?"

Lu Jingting patted his face and said, "I lost it a long time ago, it doesn't matter this time!"

"Third Master, do you hate me very much?"

Seeing that he didn't react at all, his brows didn't even frown, his face was numb.

Lin Wan'er glared at me unhappily, "It doesn't matter whether you hate me or not. We can't turn back now. We can only be tied together for the rest of our lives."

"A harmonious family brings prosperity. We should continue to live well."

"Live a good life?" Lu Jingting laughed sarcastically, "Do you think it's possible?"

He looked at the portrait on the opposite wall.

He regretted every day after Lu Zhan's death.

He shouldn't have abandoned Xiao Yunxi on their wedding night, and he shouldn't have said such self-righteous and harsh words.

He shouldn't have been bewitched by Lin Wan'er and brought the three of them back home.

He shouldn't have deceived Xiao Yunxi again and again.

He shouldn't care about his reputation as a man and stick his neck out and refuse to admit his mistake.

He now has no title or official position, so it is impossible for him to see Xiao Yunxi again. Even the Xiao family does not allow him to visit Lu Zhan's grave to pay homage.

Lin Wan'er followed Lu Jingting's gaze and saw the so-called family portrait again!

She was so angry that her eyes turned red.

Lu Zhan is dead, and now Gu Ji has been reincarnated. Xiao Yunxi is also gone, so why can't he let go?

They are a family of three. It is obvious that she and the children are his family!

Is what you can’t get the best?

In Wu'an Marquis's Mansion, she spent day and night learning the manners of a noble lady, practicing calligraphy, and learning how to manage account books...

Apart from her face, how else is she inferior to Xiao Yunxi?

Why doesn't anyone see her good side?

Lu Jingting hated her, and Lu Ze and Lu Yuan were unwilling to get close to her.

"Third Master, it's getting late. I will... help you get some rest."

As soon as he stretched out his hand, Lu Jingting slapped it away.

"what!"

The force was so great that the back of Lin Wan'er's hand turned red instantly.

"Get out!"

Lin Wan'er knew that if she stayed any longer she would only bring humiliation upon herself and might even be whipped again. She could only cover her beaten hands and leave in shame.

"Madam, why are you back?"

The head maid Meihua was assigned by the people of Wu'an Marquis' Mansion as a dowry maid to Lin Wan'er.

Lin Wan'er sat on the chair angrily, "If you don't come back now, you will never come back!"

Meihua sighed, "Madam, haste makes waste, take your time."

“Take your time?” Lin Wan’er sneered, “Ze’er was bullied badly in the clan school, and he, as his biological father, actually didn’t care. This is too much!”

She was really unwilling to accept it, "I have admitted my mistakes, why won't they forgive me?

I begged the old marquis, and he promised to help the third master find an official position.

I learned how to manage the rear quarters, serve the old lady and the princess, and even used the private money given to me by the old marquis to supplement the household expenses.

Why can't they see my efforts and hard work?

Lu Jingting looks down on me, the old lady looks down on me, they all look down on me!

Why? How am I inferior to Xiao Yunxi? "

The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. Lin Wan'er burst into tears, "Why? Isn't it just that Lu Zhan died? Why do they all hate me!"

There was a hint of sarcasm in Meihua's eyes. Isn't it you who caused all their troubles today?
