iao Jiu A thing born from a lowly courtesan, daring to act as the head of the Zhao family!"Little Nine, who gave you the guts to act on behalf of the Zhao family""Father is still here!"When it came to...Over the past three years, she has paid a great price to bring Mr. Qin and his daughter back. She has also put in a lot of effort to ensure that Zongbo could continue his studies.

Finally, after so much effort, the person was successfully cultivated. When they arrived in the capital and encountered some trouble, they became like this ghostly figure.

Fang Jinshi couldn't help but wonder if she had raised her child wrong. The ivory tower upbringing had made Zongbei like a flower in a greenhouse, unable to withstand even the slightest wind or rain.

Zong Bai didn't speak for a long time, as if Fang Jinxiu's slap had stunned him, and he couldn't recover for a long time.

Seeing the child's dispirited appearance after she was done, she felt a pang of sympathy. Just as she was about to speak and comfort her, Zongbei spoke up.

"I'm useless."

"Your sister-in-law is good at this."

When the words reached her lips, Fang Jinshu swallowed them back. Zong Bai's expression was unreadable at this moment, and she didn't know if it was because the slap had been too heavy, or if she had angered the child or brought him to his senses.

I could only stay silent and listen to him continue talking.

"My older brother is not here, and I am the only male in the family, but I am so useless. That person forcibly erased my title of champion, and I was driven back here like a defeated dog."

Zong Bai cried, tears once the sluice gates were opened could not stop at all.

He also knew he was too useless, so he was even more annoyed with himself.

If he were as capable as Big Brother, he could get Mother justice from that person.

Zong Bai cried even harder, Fang Jinxiu sighed and raised her hand to pat Zong Bai's head.

Upon learning that Zong Bai's status as a top scholar had been erased by Zong Pingchuan, Fang Jinshu felt a surge of anger.

"This champion title is something you earned through your own hard work. He has no right to erase that."

Don't worry, sister-in-law will definitely help you win back the title of top scholar.

Zong Bai choked back a sob and lifted his head. He probably realized he was crying quite messily, so he raised his sleeve and wiped his tears fiercely, cleaning the disheveled liquid on his face before speaking.

"Sister-in-law, what do you want to do"

"Zong Bai, do you still think of that person as your father in your heart"

Zong Bai didn't even think about it before shaking his head, his tone more resolute than ever.

"If I had just found out that he not only survived but also became the high-ranking official, the Imperial Grand Master, I would have still held a glimmer of hope and fantasy about him."

“I made excuses for his behavior.”

"The prime minister's office is so large, perhaps he was forced. The news of his death could have also been orchestrated by the prime minister himself."

"He had no choice but to leave our whole family behind in the countryside all these years."

"When I learned that my top ranking had been erased and he was one of the examiners, I knew this had to be his doing."

Later, he brought two people to find me and personally told me never to set foot in the capital again. He knocked me unconscious and put me in a carriage, sending me all the way back home.

"On my journey, I encountered a group of assassins who tried to kill me. I was lucky enough to escape with my life."

"With a cold glint in his eyes, Zong Bai chuckled sarcastically, 'Perhaps he regretted letting me go halfway and sent someone to kill me to silence me.'"

"Luckily, I was quick-witted and found an excuse to fool the two people who were sending me back. I secretly ran away through a side path, which is how I escaped."

Fang Jinxiu's face grew colder with each word. She hadn't expected Zong Pingchuan to even consider killing Zong Bai to silence him.

She trembled with anger, clenching her fists tightly.

"At that moment, I knew my biological father had died on his way to the imperial examinations years ago."

Zong Bai gritted his teeth and said, "He'd be better off dead!"

"Don't get angry, we'll get our revenge from Zong Pingchuan sooner or later."

"Sister-in-law, when did you let them treat you like this"

"To seek revenge, you must first take care of your body. How can you seek revenge with a broken body"

As she spoke, she turned and went out. After a short while, she brought in a large pot of chicken soup, with half a chicken cooked until it was soft and falling apart inside.

She placed the soup before Zongbei, "Eat it, and drink every last drop of the broth."

This time, Zong didn't need Fang Jinshi to say much. He immediately picked up the bowl and ate large bites, drinking every last drop of soup.

After a few days of recuperation, Zong Bo's body finally recovered completely.

Mu was far stronger than Fang Jinxiu had imagined.

That day, Fang Jinshu called over Mu Shi Yulian Zong Bai, Dong'er Yuan Bao, and even Xiao Cao. The whole family shut the door and held a family meeting.

The most important family meeting ever.

Let's go to Beijing.ates for no reason. Alright, alright, next time I see him, I'll give him a good scolding and have him apologize to you"Jade Lian twitched the corner of her mouth, at her sister-in-law's insincere tone...
