Chapter 41: The Scumbag Who Eats Soft Rice and Takes It Hard 6

Ren Xin publicly declared that she was ill and had made a mistake in her judgment. A man with such low character like Feng Yutao, a mere scholar, was unworthy of being a good husband. She decided to part ways with him, leaving both sides to move on separately.

Somehow, this news reached the proctor from the capital. Moreover, with Feng Yutao’s physical state deteriorating, his face ruined, and most importantly, his moral character lacking, his title as a scholar was revoked.

This was like a thunderbolt striking Feng Yutao’s head. Just moments ago, he was still simmering in anger over Ren Xin’s decision to divorce him. He had sworn that, even if they divorced, he would still bite a chunk of flesh out of the Ren family.

But the very next moment, he was struck speechless by the news of the revocation of his title.

It was over. What hope did he have now?!

Before he could process this, Uncle Cheng and A Da placed the divorce papers in front of him. A Da only had one word for him, “Sign!”

Confused, he signed the papers, and immediately realized the terrible mistake he had made. By signing, he had lost everything—he was left with nothing.

But it was too late to undo it.

Ren Xin had instructed the servants left at Feng’s house to spread the word everywhere about Feng Yutao’s disgraceful actions and the divorce. This was a classic case of ruining his reputation.

Ren Xin instructed them to report regularly on Feng’s family’s misfortunes, especially if it could cause trouble for them. If they pleased her with their work, she promised to reward them generously.

The servants were full of enthusiasm, vowing to make the Feng family’s life miserable!

Upon hearing about the divorce, Feng’s family angrily cursed Ren Xin, saying she would suffer retribution. However, when they heard that Feng Yutao’s scholar title had been revoked, they fell silent. Feng Yutao’s parents, shocked, fainted from the news.

As for the woman named Zhen Niang, seeing the situation was going poorly, she used the excuse of returning home, thinking she could quietly slip away.

Ren Xin had already dispatched people to guard her. This woman could not leave. She intended to unite this couple, and she and Feng Yutao had to stay bound together—no one could leave.

Ren Xin didn’t even need to imagine how miserable Feng Yutao’s life became. Every now and then, she received reports from the servants left behind at his house, and each report made her feel more satisfied.

With the scumbag out of the way, the next task was to find an heir for the Ren family. This mission was essentially complete.

It was impossible to rely on giving birth herself, so she would cultivate a batch of them, focusing on gathering the right materials.

“Did you hear? Miss Ren donated a thousand taels of silver to the Shan An Hall and even sent people to teach the children there some skills. I heard that the girls can learn embroidery and house management. They might even work at the Ren family’s shops in the future.”

“Such good news! Why doesn’t the Ren family share this with the common people? What can those girls even learn? If there’s an opportunity like this, it would be better to give it to my Da Bao. My Da Bao is very smart and will definitely amount to something.”

There were many such comments, but Ren Xin ignored them.

There were 132 children in the Shan An Hall of all ages. Some were very smart, so Ren Xin arranged for the tutor to give them basic education. Both boys and girls could learn to read.

If the boys earned the tutor’s approval and studied well, Ren Xin promised to support them in taking the imperial exams.

Some of the boys were strong, so she arranged for them to learn blacksmithing or martial arts, so they could work for a security company in the future. For those with no special skills, Ren Xin had the old farmers from the village teach them how to farm.

As for the girls, those with dexterous hands were taught embroidery, weaving, or cooking. The rest were left to do labor work.

Ren Xin sighed. The options for women in this world were too few.

Ren Xin’s only requirement was that these children must follow the Ren family name. Even the clan leader tried to persuade her, but nothing changed her decision.

The children didn’t care about their surname. They were orphans, and as long as they had food to eat, they didn’t mind what work they were given! Besides, Ren Xin was teaching them valuable skills.

These children’s monthly expenses were high, so Ren Xin dug through her treasure chest and came up with various ideas.

She started making soap, preparing essential oils, opening a restaurant, brewing wine…
