The family took in five or six concubines, both noble and humble.

The purpose was to give birth to more sons so that his family could have more descendants.

These days, he had been looking forward to the pregnant third aunt giving him a son, but he didn't expect that she was actually faking her pregnancy.

This was so infuriating that he fainted.

After fainting from anger, the former governor did not wake up until the next day.

After waking up, he felt dizzy and could not lift his spirits.

He saw the doctor here, and thinking about Du Wanchun's words, he asked the doctor to check his body as well.

It would have been better if he hadn't checked, but he found that he was infertile.

"What, you said I'm infertile?" The former governor was stunned.

The doctor felt his pulse again and again and confirmed that he was infertile, "Yes, sir."

After hearing this, the former prefect was shocked and fell to the ground. He looked as if he had lost his soul and his face was pale.

He had always thought that his original wife was infertile, but now the doctor told him that he was the one who was infertile.

This was really a big joke for him.

It was okay for the former prefect to be diagnosed with infertility, but the key was that he had two daughters.

These two daughters were born to the second and fourth concubines.

In other words, these two women cheated on him.

He originally wanted to get some gold from Du Wanchun, but he had no intention of getting gold at all. He sat and covered his face and cried, "What's the use of so much silver without an heir!"

It was after noon.

The second and fourth concubines knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

"Master, we know we are wrong, please spare our lives."

However, it was useless. The former prefect drove them all out.

In fact, if the prefect Yuan didn't see a doctor, he would never find out about the fact that he had no children, and he might just live in confusion.

But it was a coincidence that if it weren't for Du Wanchun's words.

He might not have asked the doctor to treat him.

I don't know whether Du Wanchun did a good thing or a bad thing.

Du Wanchun stood in the corridor and smiled at the scene in front of her.

If the prefect Yuan hadn't detained her here, she wouldn't have said this.

He deserved it, abandoning his wife and taking in so many concubines for his own desires. In the end, the concubines cheated on him. It was really retribution.

She turned around and prepared to leave.

Before leaving, she met Mrs. Yuan Yan in the backyard.

Yan had long hated the prefect Yuan and the concubines in the backyard.

Since these concubines gave birth to sons, Mr. Yuan no longer took her seriously and even deducted her expenses.

A few days ago, she wanted to divorce him, but he didn't want to. He would rather favor his concubine and kill his wife than let her go.

I didn't expect that retribution would come so quickly now.

When Madam Yuan saw Du Wanchun, she stopped and said, "You must be Shopkeeper Du."

Du Wanchun bowed to her and said, "Meet Madam Yuan."

Madam Yuan looked gentle and generous. She said softly, "I heard from the servants that this Yuan detained you in the mansion."

Du Wanchun said slowly, "It's not a detention, just kidnapping."

She emphasized the word kidnapping.

Madam Yuan's face darkened slightly.

Although Du Wanchun was a merchant, her husband was the county magistrate after all, and the second son of the Zhou family was the emperor's adopted son. With this relationship, they couldn't offend the Zhou family.

That prefect Yuan wanted the silver so badly that he did such a rebellious thing.

Although Madam Yuan didn't like her husband, she didn't want to be implicated, so she knelt down and said to Du Wanchun: "Manager Du, my husband was wrong in this matter, I'm here to apologize to you on his behalf."

Du Wanchun helped her up and said: "Madam Yuan, this is serious."

Madam Yuan lowered her head, her eyes were almost red.

Du Wanchun looked around and saw no one, so he whispered in her ear: "Madam Yuan, do you know that your husband embezzled a sum of money from the court?"
