Mrs. Chu squinted her eyes and looked at Fourth Master, and then her eyes turned red: "You kid, I really owe you my love for you... I have never had to worry about your food and clothing expenses over the years..."
The fourth master just pursed his lips and held his hands to Jin Chengan: "My son will be hungry if he doesn't eat, but his body will be lighter."
As soon as these words came out, the room suddenly became quiet.
He didn't say it clearly, but someone in the house was trying to harm him.
Mrs. Yun couldn't help but look at Mrs. Chu, she really had a heart like a snake or a scorpion.
Jin Cheng'an's expression changed, and he never thought that he would dare to bring this matter out in the open. This is embarrassing, especially when outsiders are around.
But who knew that the fourth master changed his words and looked at Mrs. Chu and bowed his hands again, "Mom, don't worry too much. My son said this today because his mother loves her son. The son is not suspicious of his mother, but he is afraid that his son will not have enough food."
It's clean, and I'm afraid that the food used by my father, mother, and eldest brother has been tampered with. Therefore, I often worry, but my ability is limited, and no matter how much I observe, I don't find any problems. I originally thought that I was being careless, but this time it really happened.
problem occurs……"
What he said to excuse Mrs. Chu was really hypocritical. But his words made everyone feel relieved. It was easy to say anything, it was too ugly to make trouble.
Even the look on Mrs. Chu's face was relieved.
The fourth master looked at Jin Chengan: "My son said this today because he was scared because of what happened in the past two days."
The scowl on Jin Chengan's face faded, his brows raised, and he somewhat understood what he was going to do. If it hadn't been for what happened today, he would never have known that this bastard had such a cunning mind. He clearly hinted that his aunt would harm him, but he just kept saying it.
In a blink of an eye, not only did he finish all the accusations against Mrs. Chu, but he also made Mrs. Chu no longer suspicious of him. Even if she was suspicious, there was no reason for him to be disrespectful to his aunt in public. This
His thoughts are deeper than those of the eldest son. He is also more able to play with people's hearts than the eldest son. He wants to see what else he can say.
The Fourth Master looked at Lin Changgen apologetically and put aside the topic immediately: "Father-in-law and son-in-law are not talking to their own family. Now, our two families can be considered one family. Behind closed doors, there is no such thing as family scandal.
Now that I have said it, think about it, how could this eldest sister in the Lin family come to our house so well? Our house... I won’t hide it from you, is really a bit unclean. Especially these two days. Not long ago, my little sister
My son-in-law just felt that someone had tampered with his body, and then our old lady became ill. It was so easy to be happy, the whole house was almost plotted against. The people who live in the house well now, my mother, she
It must have been properly placed, but it is still said to be missing. This has to make people think deeply."
Lin Changgen frowned. This sounded like an excuse for fear that he would make trouble with Duke Jin's government and ask for someone. Is that what he meant?
The expressions on the faces of Mrs. Chu and Jin Shouren were much better. It was indeed the most appropriate thing for the fourth child to say this to the Lin family.
Lin Yutong glanced at the fourth master and whispered a few words in Yun's ear.
Yun's face immediately showed a bit of surprise, and she nodded to Lin Changgen.
The fourth master then said to Lin Changgen: "Think about it, the person who can tamper with your house should have a close relationship with the Lin family..." It seems to be saying that the Lin family is also responsible for what happened.
Lin Changgen suddenly thought of Lin Fanghua. He thought of Lin Fanghua and the concubine Qi whom she had mentioned many times. So was the son-in-law hinting that the person behind him was Prince Duan?
Lin Yutong understood what Fourth Master meant. He threw Prince Duan out as the mastermind and gave Jin Chengan an excuse to cooperate with Prince Heng.
Jin Chengan took a thoughtful look at the fourth master. This son could see clearly that once he cooperated with Prince Heng, it would indeed be beneficial to the bastard. Moreover, he said in public that his diet was unclean, and then pushed it to
The person behind this scheme is far-fetched, but at least no one will dare to tamper with food like this in the future.
The Fourth Master indeed thinks so. If he doesn't cry out, but his body is getting better and better, what will Mrs. Chu think? Will she doubt that she knew it was her? Although they will not coexist peacefully, some
Things got ugly on the surface.
As for the separation of the family, he didn't expect it to happen.
Lin Changgen glanced at Mrs. Chu, then at Lin Yutong, and suddenly said: "I really didn't know there were so many things going on here. Since it was all calculated with no intention, then this accident... no one wants to see it happen."
This is somewhat of a no-longer pursuit.
"But..." Lin Changgen changed his words, pointed at the fourth master, and said to Jin Cheng'an: "This child's body really needs to be taken care of. Since the house is not clean, I don't know if there is any trouble. I think
, let the young couple go out to live a happy life. Don’t say whether to separate the family or not. Just ask the two of them to live in another village. It is clean outside the city. Besides, no matter what the people behind this want to do, it has nothing to do with the two of them.
It’s okay for the child. If we go out and live, we’ll be safe.”
This is what the fourth master said, and it does make sense. No matter how someone plots against him, he can't plot against a bastard. It's really for the child's benefit that he should be told to stay away.
What a stroke of God.
Lin Yutong really didn't expect that Lin Changgen would intervene. This was actually a negotiation with Jin Cheng'an. Our eldest daughter disappeared in the house. I won't make a fuss about it, or even pursue it. But the premise is that you have to promise me this
condition.
Lin Changgen is indeed very helpless. No matter how anxious he is about the big girl, no matter how hard he clings to the Duke's mansion, what can he do? Can he change the big girl, can he turn back time, can he call this girl
Nothing so bad happened. What's more, if we really want to investigate, the root cause lies with Lin Fanghua. In this case, it's better to find some benefits for the second girl. With the temper of the second girl, she really can't be a concubine's wife. She's too stubborn! Follow
Living with mother-in-law is going to be a disadvantage. Ask the young couple to take the opportunity to live in a villa outside the city. On the surface, they don't separate, but as long as their health is not good and they need to recuperate, there will always be an excuse not to come back. This point
There is no difference between a family and a family without separation. Anyway, the dowry of the second girl is enough for the couple to use for a lifetime.
Mrs. Chu pursed her lips. This has its pros and cons. The good thing is that you don't have to be an eyesore when you leave. Moreover, her husband won't be able to see this bastard for another year and a half, so the relationship will naturally fade away. The bad thing is that he may have to leave in the future.
Out of control.
Jin Chengan glanced at Lin Changgen, and he really didn't expect that he would still attach great importance to this legitimate daughter. It was not impossible to agree, but for a moment he thought of the confrontation with his second brother before dawn.
The second brother doesn’t want to divide the family, but he wants to divide the property. It’s not uncommon for the family to divide the property without dividing the property. When the parents were alive, they divided the property, which will save the children and grandchildren from having to fight for the family property in the future.
.This division of property does not separate the families. Although the family lives in the same house, the expenses are all accounted for by each family. They also have their own fires. Even the servants in the house are also divided.
The deeds are kept by each house. If there is something going on at home, they will be together. When there is nothing going on, they can live their own lives without disturbing each other.
The second brother wanted half of the family property, which he didn't really care about. But he was thinking about how to handle the matter quietly.
Now is a good opportunity. I have divided the property among my sons, so it is not at all awkward to share the property with my brothers. It just so happens that the old lady is indeed not in good health, so if I use the old lady's hands to handle this matter, it will not be awkward at all.
Some people make irresponsible remarks.
He is not afraid of other people's comments, but he doesn't want his family's affairs to become the subject of street talk.
Low-key! Low-key! No matter how low-key you are. It’s best to be low-key and no one will think of yourself. This is what you want.
After understanding this, he changed his tone and nodded: "There is no need to go outside the city. I originally planned to marry their brothers and divide the family property."
Mrs. Chu frowned, and Jin Chengan gave her a faint look, with a very obvious warning.
When Lin Changgen heard this, he nodded, "Then I'll visit you again in a few days."
This division of property is also a big deal. It is common sense for Lin Changgen to attend to support his daughter. Sometimes, the division of the family is unfair, and if the children cannot speak out, the in-laws can save face and speak up. The division of the family has come naturally.
This is the reason why you should invite your daughter-in-law’s family.
"Father, please send your father-in-law out." Fourth Master pulled Lin Yutong to stand up.
Jin Cheng'an nodded: "Go ahead." Then he said politely to Lin Changgen, "I won't send you far."
Lin Yutong followed Lin Changgen, and Lin Changgen whispered: "You really don't know what happened to your eldest sister?"
Of course I can't tell him where I went.
"Just ask people to look for you quietly." Lin Yutong reminded, "You can't make it public, and you can't really let people know that you are looking for someone."
The words were convoluted, but Lin Changgen understood the meaning. He wanted to reveal his secret search for someone quietly, so that people would know that his eldest daughter was really lost. But he had no news at all.
.
Lin Changgen looked back at his daughter. She must know where the eldest girl has gone. If I don't tell you, it's probably really inconvenient to say. He nodded, "I know. If it's really hard to stay in this house... go get the dowry."
He lives on Zhuangzi."
How could it be said so easily?
But Lin Yutong still responded and stopped at the door of the inner courtyard.
Lin Changgen whispered: "Your aunt...sent her out today. Tell her to go back to live in the Qi family's villa."
This has nothing to do with Lin Yutong.
She smiled and said goodbye to Yun: "Be careful on the road."
Mrs. Yun was in a good mood. Bringing the big girl in could help Lin Fanghua get out early. This was good news for her. "Come back early the day after tomorrow."
It refers to the matter of returning home.
Lin Yutong agreed, and then watched Fourth Master continue to send them out and get on the carriage.
Jin Cheng'an didn't know what he told Mrs. Chu that the division of property was settled. On that day, the nanny led people to count the things in each house except the dowry of the women's family members.
Lin Yutong felt that this was like taking the opportunity to find Lin Yuzhi. Maybe Jin Chengan suspected that Lin Yuzhi did not leave the house, but was hidden by someone.
"I feel that the Duke seems to be suspicious of the second master." Lin Yutong lay in bed at night, talking to the fourth master.
Isn't this normal? Only the second master, Jin Chengquan, has this ability.
Even if footprints are found, they will be denied because the doctor said that the patient will not wake up on his own so quickly. Therefore, the second master becomes more and more suspicious. And Jin Chengan becomes more and more wary of Jin Chengquan.
The fourth master did not dwell on the matter, and only reminded Lin Yutong, "Be careful when you meet Mrs. Chu in the future. This woman has been accustomed to having things go smoothly for her half of her life. If she encounters someone who does not go her way, she will be troubled."
Lin Yutong curled his lips: "Am I afraid of her? You just need to be busy with things outside. You don't have to worry about the inner house."
However, the Fourth Master really talked about this matter.
The next day, Lin Yutong went to pay his respects to Mrs. Chu early in the morning, but was left hanging in the snow with no one to pass him around. Besides himself, Qi Duoer was also made to stand.
Qi Duoer came earlier, and when Lin Yutong arrived, her lips were so cold that they turned blue.
Lin Yutong glanced at it, turned around and left. She was not exempt from this crime. When she returned to the yard, she immediately called for doctors all over the city, "Three or four are not too few, and one is not too much. Don't worry about the money."
, you just go and invite me."
Mrs. Chu is going to compete with herself. Whoever gives in now will never be able to straighten up in front of the other party in the future. If you compete with yourself, whoever gives in will be afraid of the other.
As a result, the doctor came to check the pulse and found that Lin Yutong's legs were cold, and the cold was deep into the bone marrow. It was such a day, and he was from a wealthy family, why did his legs get cold? No one dared to ask about the yin inside.
With this excuse, Lin Yutong simply didn't even go back. She only prepared a return ceremony and asked someone to send him back. She didn't want to face Lin Changgen and Yun's questioning, so she just lied on the kang.
Got up.
The fourth master soon fell ill. Mrs. Chu wanted to ask the fourth master to warn him, but she couldn't because the fourth master was seriously ill and could not get up.
Originally, Lin Yutong was thinking, wouldn't this be the time to divide the property? By then, the elders of the clan and the Lin family would have come, so they could use the topic as a reference. But what she didn't expect was that one of the doctors was from the Gan family.
The doctors in the medicine shop have been eating a bowl of rice from the Gan family for several generations. Shi Zhongyu found out about such a big thing the next day. Shi Zhongyu really has a lot of connections in the capital, especially with the female family members of the back house. This woman is in
In the back house, there is nothing but gossip.
The news that the wife of Duke Jin had set rules for his bastard daughter-in-law, which froze the new daughter-in-law's legs, spread like wildfire.
Princess Hengqin Li Xiangjun heard her sister-in-law say something, "That girl is also the daughter of that girl from the Gan family. You said that child is also suffering... This Concubine Gan is really a sinner. Why did she point out such a marriage?
."
Li Xiangjun felt anxious in his heart. If this was really the case, then he really couldn't keep it a secret.
After sending her sister-in-law away, she turned around and went to find Gan Quan. After entering the door, she explained the matter in one breath, "Look at this... it really doesn't work. I'll ask someone to send something to the child. I and you... are not
, is close to her mother, this is not a secret in the capital. It’s okay to support the child.”
Gan Quan frowned in reality, and then looked at Aunt He. Aunt He immediately left and asked Shi Zhongyu about the matter. She usually took the initiative to contact Shi Zhongyu, but Shi Zhongyu had no right to contact him. Therefore, sometimes the news was inevitably delayed.
Mr. Gan didn't say anything for a long time, and then he chuckled softly, "Don't worry about her! She didn't suffer any loss."
The bad reputation of Mrs. Chu has reached the ears of Princess Heng. Isn't it obvious who loses and who wins?
