Use a substitute on your wedding night to scatter the ashes of your entire family

Zhu Qingmeng's face flushed instantly, and he looked at Li Shuangwan in embarrassment and said anxiously, "Mother, I've already said that I don't want to get married before I pass the imperial examination."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Many young men in Shengjing have married at the age of 18, but you are already 20 and you haven't even found a girl yet. Listen to your mother and find a marriage first. It won't delay your study for a good name. Mother, don't you think this makes sense?"

Madam Zhu snorted.

Li Shuangwan took the booklet.

Zhu Qingmeng was so anxious that even the tips of his ears turned red. He snatched the book back and stuffed it into Hu's hand: "Cousin, I, I haven't thought about getting married yet."

"Aunt, my cousin is a very good student. He will surely pass the imperial examination in two years. Why don't you wait another two years? If you find him a girl now, it will distract him. In two years, he will have achieved success, won't that be better?"

Mrs. Hu looked back and forth between her son and Li Shuangwan, and smiled, "Well, that's fine. Two years later, when your eldest cousin passes the college entrance examination, I will still have to trouble you, the Princess Heng, to help check on him."

"Okay, definitely."

Zhu Qingmeng lowered his head silently.

After lunch, Zhu Qingmeng personally escorted Li Shuangwan to the gate of the mansion.

"Cousin, don't take my mother's words seriously."

Li Shuangwan looked at Zhu Qingmeng and smiled: "Cousin, do you already have someone in your heart?"

Zhu Qingmeng's face turned red again: "No, no. I, how could I have someone in my heart. I, I just want to pass the imperial examination first..."

Li Shuangwan glanced at Xiaoshun who was following behind Zhu Qingmeng and said, "Cousin, you can't just focus on studying. You can't rely too much on others for some things."

Zhu Qingmeng didn't understand what Li Shuangwan meant, so he nodded and said, "Okay."

"Then I'll go back."

"Okay. Uncle Zhou, drive slower."

Zhou Wen bowed to Zhu Qingmeng and said, "Don't worry, cousin. I'll save it."

When they came out of Zhu's house, it was a little early. Li Shuangwan lifted the curtain and told Zhou Wen: "Uncle Zhou, go to the General's Mansion."

"Okay, Princess, please sit tight." Zhou Wen whipped the carriage, turned it around, and headed for the General's Mansion.

Two days have passed, and it's time for her to talk to her good second uncle about Zhou Caiyao.

Chen Ping came back and followed the carriage. He reported to Li Shuangwan, "Princess, Master Zhang's hand has been reattached. Doctor Liu from Baiyaotang said that his hand was injured two years ago and was not properly treated. Although the bone has been reattached this time, the recovery time will be longer. It is estimated to take about half a year."

"Will it be back to normal in half a year?"

"Well, it's not a big problem. You just have to take good care of yourself in the next six months and don't lift anything heavy."

Li Shuangwan nodded: "Take some more money and tell Doctor Liu to let him do some light work in the clinic and pay him. We will pay for his food, clothing, and wages, but you can't let Master Zhang know."

Chen Ping smiled and said, "Yes, the princess is really kind-hearted."

Li Shuangwan lowered the car curtain. Compared to what Zhang Shiyi had done for her in his previous life, this was nothing.

……

"What did you say? The twin baby your mother was pregnant with is not dead. It has been found?" After hearing what Li Shuangwan said, Second Uncle Li Huaiyi jumped up from his chair and raised his voice suddenly.

"Yes." That year, my mother gave birth to twins, and one of the baby girls was dead when she was born. My second uncle's family knew this very clearly.

"This is the letter my mother wrote to me, as well as the signed testimony of the villagers in Linshui Town, proving that Zhou Caiyao was indeed picked up by the Zhou couple from outside. If Second Uncle doesn't believe it, you can send someone to Linshui Town to verify it."

Linshui Town is remote, with less than a hundred people in the village. There are only a few families living next to Zhou Caiyao's house, and they are all farmers. It is already difficult for them to make a living, so who would pay attention to other people's affairs?

And when she asked Chen Ping to go, she had already learned from him that Zhou Caiyao had been planning this for more than half a year. Combined with what Chen Ping said to the villagers, the villagers would naturally think that Zhou Caiyao was really a noble lady who had been stranded outside.

Five or six days in a small village are enough time for these words to fly everywhere.

Even if my second uncle really sent someone to inquire, these are the same words he would hear.

"I didn't believe it at first, so I sent Chen Ping to verify it. I didn't expect it to be true. My second uncle also knew that when my mother gave birth to my sister and me in Jingxiu Temple, the midwife and my wet nurse Zhao Ma and others said that my sister had died in my mother's womb. God blessed my sister and she was lucky enough not to die. She was picked up by the Zhou couple who passed by and has been raised until now."

Li Huaiyi took the letter from Li Shuangwan doubtfully and read it over and over again.

At that time, Zhu's belly was very big, and the imperial physician confirmed after taking her pulse that she was pregnant with twins.

At that time, he still remembered that his brother was both happy and worried.

The joy is to have two children in one pregnancy, but the worry is that they will be twins, a boy and a girl.

after all……

Thinking of this, Li Huaiyi felt dazed.

"How did you find her?"

Li Shuangwan told Li Huaiyi what happened in Lu Mansion.

"Didn't I attend the birthday banquet of Madam Lu, the Minister of Industry, the day before yesterday? I discovered that Sister Yao has become a famous star in the Lotus Class."

As a doctor in the Ministry of Works, Li Huaiyi should have brought his family to his boss's mother's birthday celebration, but as luck would have it, Mrs. Xu caught a cold.

Upon asking, I found out that Miaomiao cried all night because she was driven out of Li Shuangwan's yard. Xu stayed with her all night, and they both caught a cold and couldn't go.

As a man, it was impossible for him to go to the backyard to listen to opera.

I actually missed such an important thing. These two women are really in the way.

"Where are the Zhou couple now?"

Li Shuangwan wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief: "Dead, starved to death, eh, so pitiful."

Li Huaiyi slammed the table heavily and said, "This Zhou family couple is really bold. They picked up the daughter of my great general's mansion and they didn't even want to give her back. This is really outrageous!"

Li Shuangwan advised: "Second Uncle, after all, they are the ones who raised Sister Yao to this age. If it weren't for them, Sister Yao might have been taken away by a wild dog. We should thank them."

Li Huaiyi was so angry that he slammed his palm on the table again: "Humph! I think they are abominable. They knew her identity and secretly took her away. It's ridiculous! If it wasn't a coincidence, there's no telling when your sister would be found."

Li Shuangwan: "Uncle, they are all dead, forget it. Sister Yao has been living outside for more than ten years and has suffered a lot. She is still in Lu's house. I thought about bringing her back and letting her live in my yard first. Uncle, what do you think?"

Li Shuangwan asked tentatively.

Li Huaiyi waved his hand: "This matter is too big, let me think about it carefully, don't rush to bring the person back."
