Chapter 54 Cracks
The wedding date of Lin Yingxin, the eldest daughter of the Lin family, and the current King Jing, is scheduled to be on the third day of the ninth month. With less than three months left, the Lin family is naturally busy with Lin Yingxin's marriage. Fortunately, when Lin Yingxin and King Jing were engaged, the eldest lady had already started to prepare some things, so in less than three months, the time was tight, but it was not enough to be completed.
"I have already discussed the things to do on the wedding day with my sister-in-law. Then, you can go and make sure the details with my sister. You can take them out. If there is no problem, I will take them down and let the servants prepare." Lin Zhengjie sat in front of Song with a tired look on his face and ordered.
Perhaps because this period of time was too busy, this Shangshu, who originally looked energetic, obviously reduced a lot.
"Yes." Song responded softly, spread the list in his hand, glanced at it but couldn't help but stop and said, "Master, what I told you last time, you..."
"We are talking about Yingxin's marriage now!" As soon as Song spoke, Lin Zhengjie obviously knew what his wife wanted to say. His face suddenly sank, "When something happened to your Song family, the Ouyang family was behind the scenes, but as the saying goes, fly does not bite seamless eggs. If your Song family is innocent and does not cause any bad things, how can they catch the handle of your Song family?"
"Besides, the people who set fire to the Song family and massacre the Song family are not the ones who do it. What are you doing all day long? As the head mistress of the Lin family, you just need to take care of the land of the Lin family's backyard. Don't think about other things anymore!" Lin Zhengjie spoke and scolded impatiently.
Song vaguely smelled a trace of affection through the impatient expression of the man in front of him, but what could she do?
Everything she has now is given to her by the man in front of her. After the Song family was destroyed, she had no support behind her. The man in front of her was her god. If she annoyed the man in front of her, then everything she has now will become a bubble.
Even though she wanted to avenge her mother's family, she couldn't and dared not to disobey the man in front of her now.
"...I understand." After a while of silence, Song said these four words softly.
Lin Zhengjie saw the displeasure on Song's face, but did not say anything to comfort him.
Song might have no hope for Lin Zhengjie in his heart, so he didn't say much at this time, but just picked up the list in his hand and looked at it again in silence.
After a while, Song's brows couldn't help frowning, and as time went by, her brows became tighter and tighter. In the end, she seemed to finally couldn't help it. She suppressed her anger and said, "Why should our second wife subsidize so many things when Yingxin gets married? And the old lady, is she giving all her savings to this eldest daughter?!"
The Lin family originally had more daughters, but now the second house gives the big house a dowry, and her Yingling will get less in the future, not to mention that she has a son. If all the property of the second house is subsidized, what will her son inherit in the future?
The more Song thought about it, he became more and more angry, so he threw the list in his hand on the table to express her dissatisfaction with anger.
Seeing that Song actually dared to get angry at him, Lin Zhengjie was stunned for a moment before slapping the table and shouting angrily: "The big house is an orphan girl and widow mother. Now Yingxin is married, what's wrong with the second house paying more dowry? Have you received fewer gifts from outside over the years because of my reputation?"
"Now a little dowry will reveal your true colors. Please take the mirror to look at your greedy and ugly face! I was really blinded by the ghost at the beginning, so I helped you straighten you!" Lin Zhengjie was obviously angry and poured out all his words.
"Master, you..." After hearing what happened just now, Song looked at the person in front of him with shock.
Although her relationship with Lin Zhengjie has gradually become worse in the past two years, no matter what, the two still maintain superficial peace. Even if there is occasional quarrel, they will never say such unpleasant words.
Now Lin Zhengjie is not willing to even care about his face, and Song can't help but feel a huge sense of panic.
When Lin Zhengjie saw Song's unbelievable look, he realized that his words were a bit heavy, but it was not impossible to make him bow his head and admit his mistake. So he just shook his sleeves and said that after he slept in the study tonight, he turned around and left without looking back.
The Lin family is only so big. Even if Song wants to cover up the quarrel with Lin Zhengjie, how can we ensure that every mouth can be controlled by so many servants and so many mouths in the Lin family?
Therefore, when Lin Yingling, who had just returned from King Jing's Beizhuang, heard the news, he immediately rushed to the Zhongyunyuan of Song's family to comfort his mother.
"...You said that my mother is not just for the sake of you brother and sister. She originally came back from thin air with Lin Yingxue, and in the future, we would have to prepare a daughter's dowry in the room. Now your father wants to send all the good things from the second bedroom to your elder sister! If you don't know, you would think your elder sister is your father's biological daughter..."
Song suffered a lot of grievances. The moment he saw Lin Yingling, he finally couldn't help but pour them all out.
After hearing this, Lin Yingling was a little angry, but she still suppressed her emotions and comforted the Song family, "Okay, mother, have the other couples also subsidized some dowry for the elder sister? After all, my father is the head of the family, so he has to take out a little more to avoid quarrel..."
"Ha, take out a little more and you have to see the situation of our second bedroom! Look at the business of the third bedroom, and you have earned a lot of money, how much things have you taken out? Your father is concerned about his face and wants to send the entire second bedroom to him!" After complaining endlessly, although Song was still angry, his mood calmed down a lot.
"Okay, let's not talk about these things anymore. My mother will deal with these things. Tell me, are you still having fun when you go to King Jing's village today?" After all, Song was also the mistress. After saying that after scolding, he soon became the tranquility after the storm, and there was no look of dissatisfaction on his face.
"Ha, just enjoy the flowers, what's the point of having fun!" When talking about this, Lin Yingling's face showed his usual arrogance and disdain, "Today..."
"Madam, Miss, Miss Cousin is back!" Lin Yingling was about to speak out to Song about what happened in the village today, but Chunbai walked in from outside the door and whispered to report.
After hearing Chunbai's words, Lin Yingling was still a little confused, but Song, who was standing beside him, had already explained to himself: "It was me who asked Zilan to go back to deal with the family's funeral and asked her to check the Ouyang family's handle. Unexpectedly, she would come back so soon."
