The legitimate daughter returns to the capital and embarks on a splendid life, tearing apart the fak

On the way to Tingyao Pavilion, Chen Mengyao held Yun Jin's hand and couldn't help but laugh, "That's great! You're not only my grandmother's goddaughter, but also my aunt's goddaughter. From now on, let's see who dares to bully you in the capital!"

Yun Jin turned her head to look at Chen Mengyao and said sincerely, "Thank you, Sister Mengyao."

"Don't be so polite with me." Chen Mengyao waved her hand. "We've been through thick and thin together."

The two smiled at each other, and Chen Mengyao suddenly remembered something and said, "I'll go with you to see Young Master Huang. It just so happens that we have a day off from school today."

Yun Jin nodded hurriedly. After all, she was the one who brought him to the capital, so she should at least check on how he was doing.

When the two arrived at Huang Weixue's residence, just as they were about to enter, they heard a loud noise coming from inside, accompanied by insults.

"You poor wretch, you dare to hide?"

Then came a muffled "bang," like something crashing heavily to the ground.

Yun Jin and Chen Mengyao exchanged a glance, then quickly pushed open the door and went inside. They saw Huang Weixue being kicked to the ground, blood seeping from the corner of his mouth, half of his face covered in dirt, and his clothes torn in a hole.

He had just managed to get up from the ground when he was kicked down again.

A young man in fine clothes, followed by two servants, grumbled, "You poor wretch! The Zheng family feeds you, drinks you, and even lets you study—that's your good fortune! You really think you're something special?"

Huang Weixue gritted his teeth, trying to get up by supporting himself with his hands on the ground, but the boy stepped on his fingers and snorted:

"I'm doing you a favor by asking you to wash my clothes!"

Huang Weixue gritted his teeth and held back, not saying a word.

Yun Jin couldn't hold back any longer, so she rushed up and kicked the boy to the ground.

The boy, lying on the ground, turned around and saw Yun Jin. He immediately roared, "Where did this wild girl come from? How dare she meddle in my business?"

He scrambled to his feet, backing away while beckoning to the two servants, "What are you all standing there for? Seize this wild girl! She dares to cause trouble at the Zheng family's house, she's got a death wish!"

Upon hearing this, the two servants were about to step forward.

Chen Mengyao suddenly asked slowly, "Who are you going to take down?"

The servant turned around and saw her, startled, and quickly stepped aside, stammering, "Miss!"

The young man saw Chen Mengyao at that moment, paused for a moment, then put on a smiling face: "Cousin Mengyao, what brings you here?"

Chen Mengyao sneered, "Zheng Ming, you're just a collateral branch of the Zheng family. What right do you have to act so arrogantly here?"

Zheng Ming's expression changed, and he chuckled awkwardly, "I was just... just joking around with Brother Huang..."

Chen Mengyao snorted coldly: "You don't need to explain to me! Go explain to my grandmother!"

Zheng Ming's face turned pale with fright: "Cousin Mengyao, I know I was wrong, please, don't tell the old lady!"

Chen Mengyao ignored him and turned to Tingzhu beside her, saying, "Go tell my grandmother that Zheng Ming is bullying my savior, Young Master Huang, just because he shares the same surname!"

Zheng Ming's legs went weak with fright, and he knelt on the ground with a thud: "Mengyao, I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong! Please don't tell the old lady!"

Chen Mengyao coldly said, "Get out! The Zheng family won't tolerate a coward like you who bullies the weak and fears the strong!"

Zheng Ming stared at her for a long time, then spat out, "Chen Mengyao, you're just a cousin of the Zheng family. Let's see how long you can be so smug!"

Chen Mengyao sneered: "Then you don't need to worry about it."

After Zheng Ming left, Chen Mengyao looked at Huang Weixue and said with exasperation, "Can't you fight back?"

Huang Weixue lowered his head, seemingly lost in thought.

Before Chen Mengyao could say anything more, Yun Jin shook her head and softly said to Huang Weixue, "Young Master Huang, you are Mengyao's benefactor, personally placed in the residence by Lord Zheng. With such a powerful backer, why don't you take advantage of it?"

Huang Weixue raised his head, a look of confusion flashing in his eyes.

Yun Jin said softly, "Sometimes, knowing how to use one's power is a skill. If you want to help others, you must first learn to protect yourself!"

Huang Weixue was stunned. After a long while, he bowed deeply to Yun Jin and said, "I have remembered your teachings, Miss."

Unbeknownst to Yun Jin, her few words would completely change Huang Weixue's life.

Chen Mengyao chuckled, "Young Master Huang, this is Xiaobai, don't you recognize her?"

Huang Weixue was taken aback. He looked up at Yun Jin and quickly bowed, saying, "I haven't thanked you yet, Miss. If it weren't for your help, I wouldn't have been able to reach the capital so smoothly, let alone become a disciple of the Grand Tutor's mansion."

Yun Jin quickly offered a helping hand: "Young master, to be honest, without your official documents, I wouldn't have been able to reach the capital. My escorting you to the capital was a condition we agreed upon, so you don't need to take it to heart. We've both gotten what we wanted."

Huang Weixue was at a loss for words when Yun Jin spoke so bluntly.

Yun Jin smiled and asked, "Young Master, are you settling in well here?"

Huang Weixue said, "Very good! The teachers at the clan school are very knowledgeable and will greatly benefit my studies in the imperial examinations."

Yun Jin nodded, took out a silver ingot from her pocket and handed it over: "Here is fifty taels of silver. Take it and buy some writing brushes, ink, paper, or inkstones, or some new clothes."

"I can't accept this, Miss has already helped me a lot..." Huang Weixue quickly declined.

Yun Jin glared at him and shoved the silver ingot into his hand: "Just take it! Do you expect me to have to borrow from someone else if you need anything?"

Huang Weixue's heart warmed, and he accepted the gift tightly: "I will remember this kindness, young lady! Once I pass the imperial examination with flying colors, I will repay this kindness with all my might!"

The brocade... is ill-gotten gains, but using it on this pedantic scholar is a good deed in itself.

"Young Master Huang will surely pass the imperial examination with flying colors! Take care, Young Master Huang, we're leaving now." After saying this, Yun Jin pulled Chen Mengyao and turned to leave.

As Huang Weixue watched the two figures walk away, a lump formed in his throat. He would remember this kindness.

The two chatted and laughed as they walked toward Madam Zheng's courtyard.

Zheng Hong was sitting at the head of the table talking to his wife. He had just heard her talk about recognizing his relatives and had also heard that Yun Jin's medical skills were quite good. He couldn't help but sigh, "In that case, we've really gotten a great deal."

Grandma Zheng smiled and nodded, "That's right, this child is indeed very capable."

Just then, Yun Jin and Chen Mengyao lifted the curtain and came in.

Grandma Zheng immediately beckoned: "Jin'er, come quickly and greet your grandfather."

Yun Jin stepped forward as instructed and respectfully kowtowed to Zheng Hong: "Granddaughter Yun Jin greets grandfather."

"Get up," Zheng Hong said with a smile, waving his hand.

Then, Zheng Guodong and his wife Zheng Guoliang walked in together. Yun Jin stepped forward to greet them, and they each presented a gift to mark the beginning of their kinship.

Yun Jin thanked them one by one, never expecting to become related to the Zheng family so soon after arriving in the capital.

She was increasingly looking forward to her trip to the capital.
