Chapter 151
Although the people in the two houses were dispersed, their hearts were not dispersed. When they returned to their rooms, they were still talking about the second room in Donglin Mansion in private.
The mistress of Xilin Mansion admired: "The old lady is really decisive, she just dealt with it in public. She didn't protect the second master and second wife over there at all."
"I have long heard that the old lady seems to be partial..."
The mistress smiled and said: "You are wrong. If you want to be partial, it is not this partial."
She continued: "Things are so big today. If the old lady doesn't handle it properly, the second master will be in trouble."
"What trouble could there be?"
The mistress glanced at the female relatives at home and remained silent.
Mrs. Lin is still losing her temper.
She rarely loses her temper. She has never seen any trouble in these years, but when it comes to her son, she is always an exception.
Lin Huabin's heart felt cold and he didn't want to have any more arguments with his mother.
Word spread that he was unfilial!
No matter what his mother said, he always smiled and said, "Mother, you are right. It is the son who failed to be a good father."
"When the mother is angry, it is because the son has not been a good husband."
Mrs. Lin's heart ached.
She took a breath and whispered: "Second brother, are you blaming me?"
Lin Huabin paused and said with a smile: "Mother, how can my son blame you?"
"You gave birth to a son and it was too late for him to be filial to you."
Mrs. Lin smiled.
She knew her son best.
"Second brother, tell me, if I don't deal with Ling Xiang, and don't clarify for Yun Wan, how will the magistrate judge her when we get to the Yamen?"
Lin Huabin said calmly: "Didn't you say that? She was at fault herself, so it's not a big deal to file a lawsuit with the government."
"And if you don't let her go, how can she go to the government office?"
Mrs. Lin asked coldly: "Have you never thought about how she came to be in front of me based on her status as a maid of the Lin family?"
"How dare you try to offend the Lin family... If I don't let her go, she won't be able to leave?"
"If I don't clear Ling Xiang's name, someone else is waiting to clear her name!"
"What will people outside say about you two wolf couple? You are mean to your first wife and your legitimate daughter, and..."
She didn't want to continue talking!
Lin Huabin was startled.
He has forgotten all about it until now!
Suddenly my heart went cold, and I kept thinking in my mind, could it be Zhao Jingyi?
But he doesn't seem to be such a wealthy person.
Zhao Jingyi was a kind-hearted person, let alone ruining his mother's birthday.
Mrs. Lin looked at her second son's appearance and said helplessly: "I offended someone, and you still don't know who it is!"
Lin Huabin turned pale and said, "My son is not as stable as my eldest brother, and not as smart as my third brother."
"Second brother, you don't have to talk to me like that."
Lin Huabin smiled bitterly: "Mother, what do you want your son to say? In just one day, your son turned into an unkind father and an unfilial son."
He has no hope of getting ahead in this life. He was born to be the stepping stone for the eldest brother and younger brother in the family!
"Mother, my son really doesn't blame you, he is just disappointed...why...how come you never think about your son like you do for your eldest brother and third brother?"
Mrs. Lin almost fainted.
She held on and said: "...it's useless to have a false reputation."
"If you are a filial son and a loving father, no one can slander you."
"Son, you are not a three-year-old child. If you really don't want to listen, no matter how correct my reasoning is, it will be useless..."
Aunt Fan came out and said: "Second Master, the old lady has to go home today. She is tired from traveling and traveling. There is a banquet at home in the evening. You and your wife should go back first!"
"……good."
Lin Huabin nodded.
Zheng lowered her head, stood up and followed. She didn't dare to put in a word.
As soon as he left, Mrs. Lin vomited a mouthful of blood.
Aunt Fan said distressedly: "We all know what kind of person the second master is, why are you trying to reason with him?"
Mrs. Lin said helplessly: "He is my son."
Aunt Fan sighed.
It would be better not to have such a son! But she couldn't say such cruel words, as a mother might not be able to hear her.
Mrs. Lin calmed down and said, "...I didn't teach him well."
Aunt Fan said: "Don't blame yourself. I can see the character of the three masters."
"The eldest master has been steady and progressive since childhood, and the third master has been smart and kind since childhood. The second master..."
"Let me say something cruel. Not all children have a considerate heart. Some children can be taught, and some cannot be taught. The second master is the one who cannot be taught. No matter what you do for him, he will always be considerate. Always believe what you see. For people like this, all your efforts will be of no use."
Mrs. Lin said: "It was my neglect of him in those years that caused him to grow crooked. Otherwise, I would not have allowed Mr. Zheng to succeed. Without the order of their parents, they would dare to give and receive in private!"
"He thinks I know nothing, I know everything!"
"Even if I agree with this kind of woman, other elders of the Lin family will not agree with her."
"After all the trouble, I still let her get married. It really made the family uneasy. I should be more cruel..."
Aunt Fan shook her head and said: "The second wife is also very powerful. She even tried to wait for me to get married at such an old age. No matter how cruel you are, I will really hate you to death."
It would be easier if the wolf couple were hypocritical.
It just so happened that they really loved each other back then. It would be a tragedy if the elders couldn't fulfill their love.
After talking about the past for a while, Mrs. Lin felt better, and then Aunt Fan asked: "Do you really want to investigate Lingxiang's matter?"
Mrs. Lin said: "Of course we have to check."
She said: "If there is no irrefutable evidence, Zheng will be in trouble again in the future, what will Yun Wan do?"
Aunt Fan smiled: "Are you worried that the second master will offend others?"
Mrs. Lin was silent.
I don’t know who sent Lingxiang here.
"Girl, do you want to see Lingxiang? She is in the wing at the end, and the eldest lady's people are watching. If you want to see her... I'm sure the eldest lady won't stop her."
Lin Yunwan nodded and said, "Go and have a look."
She and Lingxiang met alone, leaving Xiruo to guard outside.
Lingxiang is a little abnormal. She was too excited just now, and now her eyes look a little crazy.
"Lingxiang?"
Lin Yunwan called her but she didn't respond. She said softly: "Don't be afraid. You will be fine. The money the old lady promised you is yours, and the money I promised you will also be given to you."
Ling Xiang calmed down, and suddenly pulled the corner of Lin Yunwan's clothes and said: "Miss! I know! I know!"
"what do you know?"
Lingxiang smiled strangely: "No wonder my wife was willing to drug herself. She did it for the dowry of my first wife!"
"Miss, please don't leave! How can the wife get the dowry from the first wife?"
Lin Yunwan frowned: "Dowry?"
Lingxiang sat on the ground, hugged her knees and said, "Don't you know? Your biological mother was the daughter of the richest merchant family in Jiang Qian twenty years ago. Her dowry was as large as water and as large as a mountain! My wife must be greedy to death. !”
"Madam, you can't kill two birds with one stone, you can kill three birds with one stone..."
"Haha, I got rid of two thorns in my side and got a lot of money. I'm so stupid! Why didn't I think of that just now! I'm so stupid!"
Lin Yunwan suddenly realized, no wonder... if the matter continues to be tried again, it will never end!
Mrs. Lin is really thoughtful and has thought of everything.
