Chapter Twenty-Six: The Past
Dong wiped his tears and said, "Why is it difficult to be strong?" My two grandchildren have no father, and the patriarch of the Dong family drove us out again, saying that I am a foreign daughter, and I have been removed from the genealogy of the Dong family, and I can only rely on my husband's family, but my husband Fang Wenyu is dead, and there is no one in the Fang family to let me rely on, so I can only come to you! You have the blood of your mother Fang Clan, and these two children also have the blood of the Fang family, you are related by blood, why can't you adopt them? Do you really want to see our grandparents starving to death on the streets? ”
The corners of Lin Yunchang's mouth twitched, thinking to himself what kind of truth this is? What is the Dong family driving her out, and the Fang family has no one, so she can only come to the Lin family? Does the Lin family owe the Dong family and the Fang family?
Lin Yunchang ignored Dong's crooked reasoning, and said coldly: "Uncle, these two children are now ten years old, and you want me to adopt them, but your nephew and daughter-in-law have passed away for twenty years, where did I give birth to these two ten-year-old children?" You still say that it is not difficult to be strong? Not only are you trying to make things difficult for the strong, but you are trying to ruin my reputation. ”
Lin Yunchang's wife fell ill when she gave birth to Lin Qingyue and went away within a few years. Lin Yunchang was very sad to lose his beloved wife, and felt that his wife had paid him for so many years, so he no longer got close to any woman, but concentrated on raising Lin Qingyue to grow up.
Lin Zhennan also never married a wife after the death of his wife Fang, the deep affection of the father and son is well-known in Ruyang City, and the reason why the Lin ticket number will be well-known among the people is closely related to the clean and self-righteous style of the father and son.
Imagine, the original affectionate representative in the minds of the people, in the blink of an eye, two ten-year-old children suddenly appeared, even if it is explained to the outside world that it is adopted, it is inevitable that some people will think crookedly, after all, if it is not biological, who would be kind enough to adopt the children of relatives?
Once this rumor spreads, it will definitely have an impact on the business of the Lin family's ticket number.
The Dong family also thought of this, she now regards the Lin family as her backer, and naturally she doesn't want the Lin family to have an accident.
"That, that's really not good, it's good to be in Yueniang's name." She thought for a while, and suddenly she spoke in surprise.
Although this can't make Brother Chen become Lin Yunchang's sister-in-law, it is not bad to be recorded in the name of Yueniang, anyway, Lin Yunchang only has this one daughter, and Brother Chen will always be able to share some family business in the future.
Dong thought about it like this, but he didn't want Lin Yunchang to stare at him with round eyes and glaring angrily, "Do you know what you're talking about?" Recorded in the name of Yueniang? They are the same as Yueniang! Are you really thinking about these two children? ”
If Lin Yunchang thought that the Dong family was just going to the door to blackmail money and give her some face, now Lin Yunchang has already understood that what the Dong family wants this time is far from being as simple as silver.
What she likes is probably the Lin family's family business! That's why he wants to pass on his two children to the Lin family by such unscrupulous means!
All right! What a shameless woman, it's just that she has done so many unconscionable things in the past, and now she is almost stepping into the coffin with one foot, and she still doesn't repent!
Seeing Lin Yunchang's angry look, Dong knew that her purpose might have been exposed, and she no longer pretended to be pitiful, so she simply played a scoundrel and said, "So what? As long as it is for the good of the two children, what difference does it make in whose name they are recorded? It's better than begging on the streets! Don't forget, they have the blood of your mother's family, the Fang family, and I'm afraid there are only these two living children left in the entire Fang family in this world! Brother Chen is the only seedling of the Fang family! Are you going to watch him starve to death? If your mother's spirit in heaven knew that you would not save her child, would she be able to rest in peace? I'm afraid even she will hate you for being cold-blooded and ruthless! ”
The Dong family kept using Lin Yunchang's mother Fang to stimulate him, because she clearly knew that compared to the Lin family, the Fang family valued her younger brother and the continuation of the Fang family's bloodline more, otherwise she would not let her take what the Lin family wanted!
It's just the same thing, but the Lin family treats the Fang family as a treasure and her Dong family as a street rat.
Why?!
She's not convinced!
"My aunt is embarrassed to mention my mother? If you hadn't killed my uncle, how could my mother have been so grief-stricken that she couldn't afford to fall ill? Seeing Dong's appearance of a scoundrel, Lin Yunchang was surprisingly angry, he suddenly got up, stared at Dong's and said coldly: "How much silver you took from our Lin family, my aunt should know in her heart, but after taking so much silver, it still falls to this step, it can't be described as retribution!" If my aunt wants greater retribution, there are some things she can do! ”
"You!" The Dong family was also trembling with anger, she pointed at Lin Yunchang, and said angrily: "Okay, good, this is the good son taught by the Fang family!" In that case, then you just wait! Don't think that there is still the same county master to support your Lin family as before! Hehe, the county lord is too busy to take care of himself, and now there is the Qingtian lord of Henan Mansion in Ruyang City who is making decisions for the people! You wait, wait for me to sue your Lin family to the government, I want to sue you for treachery, cold-blooded and ruthless, even a ten-year-old child will be abandoned! If I sue you Lin family, if I don't succeed, I will sue the Fang family, I want your mother to not be at peace even if she dies! ”
Listening to the vicious words in Dong's mouth, Lin Yunchang, who was still full of anger, calmed down.
Because he finally understood why the Dong family chose to come to the door at this time to find trouble with the Lin family, after all, after so many years, the Dong family has never dared to come to the door, and now it suddenly appeared, there must be a reason.
I see! It turned out that it was because Hu Xianling had fallen, and she thought that the Lin family finally had no backers.
She wants to use her previous tricks to deal with the Lin family again.
Hehe, it's stupid and vicious.
After all these years, nothing has changed.
Because of Dong's words, Lin Yunchang couldn't help but think of the past.
Where did the relationship between the Dong family and the Lin family come from?
It all started 40 years ago.
That year, Lin Yunchang was only ten years old, the Lin family had not yet made a fortune, and Lin Zhennan was still carrying a basket and doing the business of selling goods.
Lin Yunchang's mother, Fang, has a younger brother named Fang Wenyu, who has been dependent on Fang's since he was a child, and his relationship is extremely close.
When Fang Wenyu was sixteen years old, Fang asked a matchmaker to give him a kiss, and he said that he fell in love with a girl from a Zhuang family in Baiyun Town, and this girl was Dong's.
Fang Wenyu and the Dong family met under the arrangement of the elders, and the two fell in love at first sight, and they both regarded each other as their destined other half. After Fang Wenyu came back, he told Fang his thoughts, and Fang was also very happy, and prepared a generous dowry gift for him to send to Dong's family, and officially hired him to marry Dong's wife.
When Dong's father and mother learned that Fang Wenyu actually had a brother-in-law who was a merchant, they were furious, and bluntly said that their Dong family has been farmers for generations, and they have never been with profiteers, and it is impossible for their daughter to marry a man who has something to do with profiteers, if Fang Wenyu sincerely wants to marry Dong, he must cut off relations with his sister and brother-in-law.
Shinong Industry and Commerce, at that time, the Lin family had not yet developed, Lin Zhennan was just an ordinary merchant, at the bottom of the society, and was given a lowly status by the government, so the Dong family was unwilling, and Lin Zhennan and the Fang family could understand.
Fang Wenyu didn't want to be a white-eyed wolf, so he rejected the Dong family, but he was depressed and thinner day by day. Fang saw it in his heart, and he couldn't bear it, so he asked the matchmaker to talk to the Dong family, not only adding two more dowry gifts, but also saying that he would cut off relations with Fang Wenyu in the future, and even helped Fang Wenyu buy a property in Baiyun Town, only asking the Dong family to marry their daughter to Fang Wenyu.
The Dong family didn't know whether they were moved by Fang's sincerity or by the heavy dowry, in short, in the end, they agreed to marry Dong to Fang Wenyu.
After Fang Wenyu knew about this, he made trouble and resisted, saying that he must not be an ungrateful villain because of his own selfish desires, after all, his parents died early, and he was raised by the Fang family since he was a child.
Fang Shi talked to him for a while, saying that only he was happy was her greatest comfort, and the rest was not important, hoping that Fang Wenyu could let go of these worldly shackles and live his life well.
Fang Wenyu was finally convinced, and on a sunny morning, he rode a high-headed horse and married Dong.
In this way, a few years have passed, Fang Wenyu was admitted to Xiucai, the Dong family was also pregnant, and the Lin family was even more prosperous, gradually beginning to develop, and everything was developing in the best direction.
But one day, Dong suddenly knelt down in front of the gate of the Lin Mansion with the unconscious Fang Wenyu on his back, crying and begging the Lin family to save her father-in-law.
