Chapter 132
"Let's find a time to offer the everlasting lamp to Miss Lin first!"
"You're tired too. Take a rest early."
Lin Yunwan went to bed to sleep.
She was tossing and turning a little tonight.
Privately, she definitely doesn’t want to beg the prince. She already owes him too much, and as a woman, what’s wrong with her always begging the prince!
She is not a little girl who has not left the court. She is not only worried about breaking the rules, but also feels that she is too closely connected with the prince. Really...
It's too unclear.
She is not a child, there are some things she cannot lie to herself about.
Lin Yunwan warned herself not to be lazy and greedy, but to stick to the principles in her heart.
There is no need to ask others for things you can do yourself.
However, the Bodhisattva still asks for something, and there is no need to repay what is owed to the Bodhisattva.
At the beginning of spring in March, Lin Yunwan chose a good day to go to Lin Huabin and tell him about going to Ci'en Temple.
"Sir, there are elders in the family who have passed away. I can no longer fulfill my filial piety, nor can I open an altar for the elders and make offerings to them. I want to provide a long-lasting lamp for the elders."
Lin Huabin's face was very gentle.
He guessed that what she mentioned was her biological mother's! If his biological mother hadn't died, Zhao Jingyi wouldn't have sent her to him to raise her!
"My good niece, you are a filial child. You can go if you want."
Lin Yunwan said: "Madam, I need you, sir..."
Lin Huabin assured her: "Don't worry about this, I will talk to my wife."
Lin Yunwan said happily: "Junior, please retire."
When she went out, Xi Ruoyi waited for her outside, put a purple cloak on her and asked, "Master, do you agree?"
Lin Yunwan nodded and said: "We should wait for the news in the next few days."
Lin Huabin mentioned this matter when he went to sleep with Zheng at night.
"You take her to Ci'en Temple to pray and get rid of the bad luck on her body. Also, she said she wants to offer a lantern, so don't stop her."
Just for my stepdaughter to go out once and get tired!
Now she still has to offer the Everlasting Lamp, and Mrs. Zheng's head was furious: "After all these years, you still miss her mother? Why offer the Everlasting Lamp! Having her memorial tablet at home is not enough for me, and you still have to offer the Everlasting Lamp!"
"Why do you blame Yun Wan's biological mother for everything?"
Lin Huabin was reluctant to say anything, but he said patiently: "She is a constant light for the loyal servant who takes care of her. She said that she always dreams about it, and she feels sorry for it. Why can't you tolerate this?"
Mrs. Zheng felt a little unreasonable, but she didn't want to admit it, and snorted: "Are you blaming me, a mother, for being stingy again? You don't even look at how your good daughter is filial to me, my aunt!"
"What's wrong with Yun Wan?"
Lin Huabin didn't quite believe it. He knew that he was a child who knew how to advance and retreat. Although his temper was a bit tough, he was still very sensible.
When she mentioned this, Mrs. Zheng became even more angry: "I have never seen any daughter greet her aunt and ask her aunt to wait for her!"
"It's already been three hours a day, and I don't even know how many hours I spent taking care of the house before she came over!"
Mrs. Zheng said with a cold face: "And that maid of hers! The wild girl from the countryside is taller and thicker than the mother-in-law in our mansion! When she went to Prince Huan's Mansion that day, Yun Wan ordered this maid to take Yun Jiao All the girls and women around me were beaten!"
"I've never seen such a powerful maid again!"
"Master, I feel sorry for Yun Wan who came from the countryside and has no one to serve her, so she has to let a wild girl serve her. But this girl is so unruly! She must be dealt with!"
Lin Huabin was a little skeptical of Zheng's words.
Mrs. Zheng also has a bad temper. If she couldn't stand Xiruo, she would have dealt with her long ago, and she would have waited until now.
Of course he didn't know that Zheng was busy inquiring about the selection of the princess in Prince Huan's palace during this period, so he had no time to care about Xiruo.
Lin Huabin still asked: "How do you want to deal with it?"
Mrs. Zheng had already thought about it and said simply: "There are rules for a maid to enter the mansion, or she must be released from the mansion. To be a maid in the Lin mansion, she has to sign a contract, otherwise she will stay in the inner courtyard every day. , she listened to something private and went out to talk nonsense, we can’t cure her anymore!”
These words touched Lin Huabin's heart.
He can raise Zhao Jingyi's daughter, but he can't raise a girl who has eyes and ears in the house and is also a girl with powerful hands and feet...
"I want to take her body deed, you make the decision!"
Zheng smiled.
She had to sign the body contract, and once she signed it, she held it in her hand. Are you afraid that this maid wouldn't listen to her?
Wouldn't this mean cutting off the stepdaughter's hands?
Lin Huabin said: "I will obey you in everything. Don't hold back on the matter of offering incense. You are a legitimate mother, and even if you are not interested in Yun Wan, you are also interested in the reputation of our couple."
Zheng said: "I know! Tomorrow I will take her and Yunjiao to burn incense and pray for blessings at Ci'en Temple."
"There is also an everlasting light. Are you satisfied?"
Lin Huabin nodded. After the quarrel, the couple were still inseparable.
the next day.
After Lin Yunwan felt comfortable sleeping, she went to pay her respects to Mrs. Zheng.
When she passed by this time, Lin Huabin was also there. As soon as she saw the faces of the couple, she knew that Zheng was going to cause trouble again.
"Greetings to the master and his wife."
She was so blessed that Zheng snorted lightly but did not call her up.
Lin Huabin said warmly: "Sit down."
Mrs. Zheng stirred the tea leaves with the lid of the tea cup, lowered her eyebrows and said in a sinister tone: "In the past, when I was at home, if I asked my parents to wait for me like this, I would have to kneel in the ancestral hall for three days at least."
"I'm not your biological mother. If I treat you harshly, I'm afraid of getting a reputation for being mean."
"But as a daughter, you should really respect me! My consideration for you is not in vain."
Lin Huabin sat silently next to him, obviously agreeing with his wife's words.
Although she is not the biological daughter of the couple, she still has to abide by the rules of dawn and dusk when she comes to his house, otherwise word will spread and it will ruin the family tradition of his Lin family.
Zhao Jingyi came in person today and had nothing to say.
He looked up at Lin Yunwan and found that she was looking at him too.
Lin Huabin had no choice but to say: "Yun Wan, what my wife said makes sense. You and your wife should have a good talk, and you will never miss a day and night in the future."
Lin Yunwan smiled.
Did Lin Huabin think that she saw him asking for help?
It seemed that when he met Mr. Zheng, he would often get dizzy.
"Sir, madam, I have not been in the mansion for a long time, and I don't know as much about the rules in the mansion as my sister. I just think that everything should be based on my sister's rules."
Lin Yunwan frowned, as if thinking deeply: "I followed the rules followed by my sister, but I did it wrong?"
She looked at Lin Huabin and Zheng in confusion.
Couple: "..."
Zheng was speechless. Jiaoer was her biological daughter, how could she be the same as Yunwan!
Lin Huabin pinched his eyebrows awkwardly.
He had forgotten that he had spoiled his biological daughter Yunjiao, and pointed his daughter at dawn and dusk every day!
It's already this time, and Lin Yunjiao hasn't gotten up yet.
She is still dreaming!
Lin Huabin had no choice but to do Tai Chi and tell Zheng: "You have to treat everyone equally when it comes to morning and dusk adjustment."
Zheng resisted the urge to roll her eyes.
Don’t you know what kind of virtue your daughter has? Is it possible for Yunjiao to come here every day...
She said perfunctorily: "Yes, I know."
He winked and reminded Lin Huabin that it was time to get rid of the maid next to Yun Wan.
