Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“You’re just a girl. At most, you’ll marry far away. But what do you want us to do?”
First Uncle Lin then looked at his mother, who was already frightened by him.
“Mother, you can’t be so biased. Or do you think that it’s better to depend on a girl than us sons in the future?”
“Hmph, before this Lanhua was engaged to the second son of the Wu family who is a scholar. You could count on her to marry into the family and provide you with a good life. But now that the marriage has been annulled and everyone knows about it, who knows what’s going to happen in the future?”
Lin Lanhua’s face turned pale.
She understood her mother’s personality?
She was doted on by her mother and had been pampered since she was young. It wasn’t because her mother really doted on her. She just wanted to raise her well and use her to enjoy life.
Hence, she knew what to say to her mother to make her happy. She had become her mother’s favorite child other than her fifth brother.
In order to exchange her for a good price, she was going to be married to a well-off widower.
If she hadn’t stubbornly refused it and that there was a better candidate from the Wu family, she would have long become someone else’s stepmother.
She was really satisfied with the Wu family.
Although the family wasn’t very well-off, Second Master Wu was a scholar at a young age, so his future was bright.
She thought that she would be able to get married this time, but who would have thought that it would be ruined by Lin Xiaoyue, that b * tch.
It took a lot of effort for her to calm her mother down and say that the Wu family’s matter might still be salvageable.
She could find a better family.
But now, her brother had exposed her.
He even said that her reputation was ruined and he did not know what would happen to her in the future.
As expected, Old Madam Lin stopped crying when she heard that.
Her face sank as she thought about it.
Old Madam Lin was an ignorant woman.
She always sided with those who did as she said and could provide for her.
In the past, she liked her daughter because she was obedient, filial, and pretty.
But…
Her eldest son’s words made sense.
It was hard to say if the Wu family would take her daughter back. If not and she lost her reputation, who would want to marry her in the future?
It would still be many years before her fifth son could make a name for himself.
Weren’t the only people she could rely on her eldest and second sons then?
At the thought of Hei Gang, a hint of fear flashed across her face.
She didn’t know the person’s background and that the situation would be so serious.
She quarreled with Lin Dachui just now because she was used to being the boss and couldn’t stand Lin Dachui yelling at her.
She did not really want to go against the man outside, nor did she really want to harm the Lin family.
She was also a member of the Lin family. How could she harm herself?
First Uncle Lin waited for a while and she was still silent. He was starting to feel anxious when she finally spoke.
“Lanhua, go with your brothers,” Old Madam Lin said in a deep voice.
Her expression became serious. She even stretched out her hand and gestured for the person beside her to help her up.
Jiang Shi and Deng Shi quickly went forward to help her, pushing away Lin Lanhua, who was still frozen in place.
“Mother!” Lin Lanhua quickly called out to Old Madam Lin.
Panic spread from her heart.
“I’m just asking you to apologize, why are you acting like this?” Old Madam Lin immediately glared at Lin Lanhua.
Her attitude was completely different from before..
