Chapter 195: No Hair
The affairs of Jiangnan's family came to an end, and Lin Fangyu set out to make a big noise, so that Mrs. Gong couldn't sleep at night.
For such a big thing, it is impossible for the palace master to protect it. He first entered the palace to take the guilt, and then brought home his half-dead son, and then came to the Chen family to withdraw from the marriage. Originally, Lord Chen was still more interested in this family business, but after such a scandal, he had to re-examine it, and he was anxious to clear up his relationship with the Gong family. When Miss Chen heard that she had withdrawn from her family, the big stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.
Gong Baiwang's lower body is useless, and there is no way to marry a wife and have children in the future, let alone continue the incense lamp for the Gong family. Mrs. Gong blamed her husband for being too ruthless and busy taking care of her son every day, but neglected her daughter's emotional changes. The palace master is anxious, and he blames his wife for not being understanding enough. At this time, Aunt Liu asked for warmth, Gong Baixi brought tea and water, and the heart of the palace master was unconsciously transferred to the concubine, and even the palace lady did not notice it.
After dealing with these two, it should be Ning Zhongcheng. There was no movement in the Guogong Mansion, as if he didn't know about the affairs of the Gong family. neither sent someone to greet him, nor did he withdraw from the marriage, so that the palace master was unpredictable, and he did not dare to act rashly for a while.
Lin Fangyu was also speculating about the meaning of the Guogong Mansion, and the information inquired about on the face was originally limited, and it was not excluded that some of them were deliberately walked by others. Just when she was still struggling with this matter, she unexpectedly received a message from Zhen asking her to come over.
Lin Fangyu cleaned up her makeup and took Bauhinia over.
When I came to Zhen's courtyard, I heard Zhen's laughter from afar, Lin Fangyu walked in, and it was the Jiangnan Pavilion that had not appeared for a long time, and she was snuggling up to Zhen's side and telling jokes, and Zhen couldn't stop laughing.
"Grandmother, mother." Lin Fangyu stepped forward with a smile, and after greeting them one by one, she stood behind Mrs. Lin obediently.
"Yu'er is coming." Zhen turned his face sideways and smiled, greeting very relaxedly, looking like a very kind old man.
"Cousin." Jiangnan Pavilion also stood up and saluted. Lin Fangyu smiled back. After that, he stood quietly to the side, not ready to speak, but also wanted to observe Zhen's movements.
"Since my cousin is here, then I won't delay my grandmother and aunt's discussion." Jiang Nanting was about to get up as he spoke, but was held down by Zhen and said, "You are not an outsider, where can you not hear." ”
"But, after all, I'm a ...... surnamed Jiangnan"
Zhen interrupted unhappily: "Your mother is like that now, I am already uncomfortable in my heart, and I want to take care of you more." Besides, your aunt is not that kind of person, am I right, eldest daughter-in-law? Zhen asked, but the last note was towards Lin Fangyu. Mrs. Lin was busy getting up, but Lin Fangyu had already taken over the conversation: "Grandmother is very right, although my aunt has done a lot of excessive things, it is not you who did it after all. Besides, grandmother only has one grandson, how can you ignore it? ”
She knew in her heart that the Zhen family wanted to use the Lin family to respond to her, didn't my daughter take a knife to you? But no matter how wrong she is, she is also your elder. At this time, she moved out of Jiangnan Pavilion, just to see her attitude. Maybe Zhen was suspicious of her, so he said it on purpose. In this case, she has no reason to suffer a dumb loss. You have to bring your daughter out, and don't blame me for not saving face for her!
Sure enough, Zhen's face was not good, and Mrs. Lin saw it, and hurriedly played a round: "Ting'er, listen to your grandmother's words, stay, and it has nothing to do with horizontal and vertical." ”
Zhen's face softened. Lin Fangyu didn't understand, her mother would never help anyone speak, and for the first time today, there must be something. Sure enough, just when she was speculating about what was going on, Mrs. Lin spoke: "Mother-in-law, in fact, my daughter-in-law came today because of the marriage of Yu'er, and I asked my mother-in-law to show me." ”
Lin Fangyu gasped, she was so busy these days that she didn't notice this at all. It's just that where does she understand the mind of a mother, there is no biological mother in the world who does not love her children.
Zhen looked at it lightly, as if smiling: "Yu'er's marriage should be discussed carefully." She was very satisfied with Mrs. Lin's attitude, and by the way, she also warned Lin Fangyu: This is the attitude that a child and a daughter-in-law should have.
"The daughter-in-law also thinks so, a marriage is the first time our Lin family has married a daughter. Second, after all, it is also a marriage given by the emperor, and it is not allowed to be sloppy. ”
Zhen's face was a little unsightly, it was clear that she was using the emperor to press her, she carefully examined Mrs. Lin, and now she looked at herself neither humbly nor arrogantly, Zhen was shocked, she really underestimated a mother!
"I thought the same way, since the eldest daughter-in-law you brought it up first, it's better to tell me what you think."
At this time, Lin Fangyu couldn't interject half a sentence, as long as she spoke, Zhen would be accused of "disrespectful to the elders", and it was her family matter, so she usually could only keep silent.
Mrs. Lin smiled: "Yu'er is the eldest daughter, according to the ancestral teaching, the daughter of the Lin family will have a dowry of eighty lifts." And these eighty lifts must be paid from the public, and the daughter-in-law has drawn up some lists, if the mother-in-law has no objections......"
Zhen didn't wait to finish listening, and almost jumped up, in her opinion, the Lin Mansion was her world, but it was not the territory of the Lin Mansion. Besides, they had already separated many years ago, and now they are not qualified to ask for a dowry. She almost forgot that it was her unkindness that drove a teenager to a dead end, which led to the split. I forgot even more that it was she who wanted to put the score of her elders in a hurry, and now she is not happy.
Lin Fangyu was also taken aback, what happened to her mother this time, she was so bold, she asked her grandmother directly, and it was the first time she saw her mother contradicting her grandmother.
In order to maintain her face in front of her grandchildren, Zhen's face was not so stinky, but it was obviously much cooler than before, so she said nonchalantly: "It stands to reason that this is the case." It's just that your father-in-law has been absent for many years, and it is not easy to maintain this family. If I hadn't come up with my own dowry, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to support it now. Therefore, in fact, our Lin family has long been different from the past. ”
Zhen said, making a look of embarrassment: "You and I are both hard-working people, so many years have passed. I think you also understand how hard it is for a widow with her children! Not to mention how much silver there is in the public office, the monthly expenses of the family alone are also a huge amount. ”
"Yu'er is also my granddaughter, I have no reason not to love, and I will not favor one over the other. In the past two years, you have also been in charge of me, a widow. So I think, your dowry will be dozens of lifts when it comes together! Moreover, Rui'er will enter the palace soon, although her position is not high, she is the emperor's person in the end. We can't afford to go cold. Coming and going, there are barely forty or fifty lifts. But the language is ...... So I thought about it, but I didn't know what to do. ”
Lin Fangyu slandered in her heart, and it was clear that she was going to pull out a dime, so I don't know how her mother would deal with it?
