Chapter 190
"Why isn't your wife in the yard?"
When Lin Huabin came back, he saw that the upper room was empty and his head was pounding.
Such a big thing happened today. Why didn't Zheng stay in the yard after she came back? Why did she run around?
The maid said: "My wife has gone to Mrs. Wen's yard."
Since it was in the courtyard where Wen Hai's mother lived, it was inconvenient for his brother-in-law to go there.
Lin Huabin opened the curtain and went in, telling the maid: "Go and urge your wife to come back."
The maid bent her knees and said, "Yes."
The courtyard was very deserted. Mother Fan was gone, and the little maids were afraid of being implicated, so none of them came forward if they could.
Mrs. Zheng was still quarreling with Mrs. Wen.
This is her home, and she can't do whatever she wants.
Mrs. Zheng pinched Wen's mother's neck, and the maids did not dare to pull her away.
Her eyes were splitting: "You! How dare you push my daughter into the water!"
Wen's mother struggled and said, "Cousin, you are wronged! If you don't believe me, ask Mother Fan. It's really not me!"
"Yunjiao slipped in by herself. I...ahem...wanted to save her, but I also fell down."
Everyone rolled their eyes.
If you pinch it again, it will really kill you.
The maid pulled Zheng away and said, "Madam, if you have something to say, please speak up. My concubine can't breathe!"
Mrs. Zheng was also tired.
She usually didn't do any strenuous work, but now her hands were weak. She sat on the bed panting and looked at Wen's mother resentfully.
Wen's mother's hair was messy. She also got up from the bed, gasping and crying: "Cousin, you really don't blame me... That kid Wen Hai is also kind-hearted. When he saw Yun Jiao falling into the water, he jumped in to save her because he was afraid that she would drown. .”
"Cousin, if you blame my Wenhai for not saving Yunjiao, we..."
"We're leaving now."
"Don't bother your cousin and cousin-in-law anymore."
Mother Wen stood up and went to pack her luggage.
Mrs. Zheng felt a headache when she saw her like that, and said angrily: "Stop!"
She said helplessly: "You dare to leave and try!"
Mother Wen turned around, looked at Mrs. Zheng pitifully, and cried: "Cousin, what should I do to satisfy you?"
Mrs. Zheng was furious.
"You think I believe you! You plotted against my Jiao'er, and you're still here to make me miserable!"
Zheng was very heartbroken.
"Now everyone in the house knows that Yun Jiao and Yun Wan fell into the water and were rescued. If you take Wen Hai away at this time..."
What to do with her daughter's reputation!
Wen's mother looked at Mrs. Zheng and said in a low voice: "Second Miss is of noble birth. It would be wrong for her to marry Wen Hai from my family."
What a grievance.
Her son became a scholar when he was more than ten years old! From now on, she has no choice but to join the Prime Minister's cabinet. Marrying such an unruly young lady will only wrong her son!
Seeing that Mrs. Zheng's eyes were wrong, Wen's mother changed her words and said: "...Of course my Wenhai is not worthy of the second young lady. But the Lin family has a great business, so it is not difficult to find a good match for the second young lady. The worst is to lower your figure. ”
That’s easy to say! Is it so easy to find a good match?
Mrs. Zheng was so angry that she was furious.
The maid sent by Lin Huabin shouted loudly outside: "Madam, please go back."
Mrs. Zheng had a severe headache. She turned around and shouted outside: "Tell the master, I understand, and go back now!"
"yes."
The maid left.
Mrs. Zheng was also tired, so she sat and rested for a while, then stood up and glared at Wen's mother coldly: "You stay here for me. If you and Wen Hai dare to leave the Lin Mansion for even half a step, I will kill you." Their skins!"
Wen's mother was very meek at the moment: "Don't worry, cousin, I won't leave until you let me go."
Although he was obviously very obedient, Mrs. Zheng felt very disgusted.
She turned around and left with the maid.
Mother Wen sneered: "How dare you show off in front of me. When you marry into our Wen family, let's see how I deal with you mother and daughter!"
She called the maid to come in: "Please tidy up this place quickly. Are you all eating at the Lin Mansion?"
The girls came running in.
Mother Wen was very happy. Soon, these maids would call her "Old Madam"!
"A woman's reputation is more important than her life!"
Mrs. Zheng's heart felt like a knife when she thought of what Wen's mother said.
"Yunjiao, don't even think about marrying into a respectable family again. Even if you marry into a poor scholar's family who is waiting for a promising scholar, they might find fault with Yunjiao for being unchaste!"
"What a good match... Where did the good match come from!"
"How can my darling endure this?"
Thinking of this, Mrs. Zheng was no longer in a hurry to go back to see Lin Huabin, and said to the maid, "Let's go to the second lady's place first."
Although Zhao's mother and maid were sent to guard her, she still didn't know why her daughter was dying.
"Mother Zhao, how is Jiao'er doing?"
Zheng rushed over and asked Zhao's mother first. Her heart felt like it was being roasted on a fire.
Zhao's mother's face was calm: "Madam, don't worry, the second lady is fine. She just feels uncomfortable from choking on water."
He added: "The doctor has also come to see me, and he is fine."
Zheng couldn't explain how she felt.
How did that happen?
She knows her daughter's character best. Why doesn't Yun Jiao stop making trouble?
"Jiao'er."
Mrs. Zheng rushed in and saw that Lin Yunjiao was eating and had already eaten half the bowl.
"daughter."
Lin Yunjiao put down the bowl.
Zheng smiled and said, "Why don't you eat? If you are hungry, just eat some more."
Lin Yunjiao put down her bowls and chopsticks and said, "I won't eat. I have no appetite."
Mrs. Zheng looked at the rice in the bowl...it didn't look like she had any appetite.
She couldn't bear to say harsh words, so she sat down and hugged her daughter and cried.
"It's all my fault."
"What's your fault?"
Lin Yunjiao thought it was an accident that she fell into the water.
How dare Mrs. Zheng tell the truth?
She wiped her tears and said: "... Weird mother didn't take you with her, and she didn't let anyone take good care of you."
But Lin Yunjiao said understandingly: "Mom, that wasn't an accident. No one wanted it."
Mrs. Zheng felt it was strange, but she couldn't tell why.
She hugged Lin Yunjiao tightly and comforted her gently: "Don't worry. Neither your father nor I will marry you off to a poor scholar like that... at a low price!"
Lin Yunjiao bit her lip.
"Mom, but, but cousin Wenhai saved me. I even...marry someone else, is that okay?"
Ms. Zheng became angry: "Why not! You are the legitimate daughter of the Lin family!"
Lin Yunjiao suddenly asked: "What about sister? If the prince saves her, will she marry him?"
This can be said to be close to Zheng's heart.
She sneered and said, "What a beautiful idea! What is the prince's status? Is she worthy of marrying him? Being a concubine is even cheaper for her."
Lin Yunjiao blinked: "But her status as a concubine for the prince is not low. Prince Huan's concubine is also a concubine. If we see her in the future, should we pay her respects?"
She muttered: "I don't want to say hello to her!"
Zheng said: "Don't worry! The prince doesn't like her. Didn't your father say that the prince is about to get a wife? How can he take a concubine so quickly?"
Lin Yunjiao asked: "What should she do?"
"What should I do? Have you never heard of a woman who lost her virginity? Send her to a nunnery, live her life as a green lantern and an ancient Buddha. Or have her strangled to death."
The more Zheng talked, the happier she became.
It’s not her fault. She originally wanted to find a good marriage for her stepdaughter, but her stepdaughter herself was unlucky.
"That's it..."
"Mom, it's not impossible for me to marry cousin Wenhai."
Lin Yunjiao looked at Mrs. Zheng innocently.
Mrs. Zheng didn't believe her ears, stared at her daughter and asked, "What did you just say?"
"She's dead anyway." Lin Yunjiao smiled coyly: "My daughter doesn't want to live the same life as her and marry cousin Wenhai——"
"Shut up!"
Zheng gave Lin Yunjiao a slap in the face.
Lin Yunjiao was stunned, looked at Mrs. Zheng with tears in her eyes, and burst into tears.
