Soon, it was time for Lin Rui'an to go to school.
That day, Ye Lanyin got up very early and sent her two sons off with great anticipation.
She carefully reminded Huaxin and Huamei, and then in Lin Rui'an's courtyard, she gave them detailed instructions to make sure everything was in order before letting them go out.
"Mother, you should go back now. My brother and I will study hard." Lin Rui'an picked up his book box and looked back at his mother, whose face was full of worry.
"Yes, Mother, I can take care of Second Brother. Please go in."
Lin Shixuan looked at the boxes of books in their hands, his face full of jealousy.
Fleeting.
"Yes, Mother, it's cold, please come inside."
"Okay, let's go."
Watching them board the carriage, Ye Lanyin felt heavy-hearted and burdened.
In this lifetime, I hope that my two sons will not repeat the same mistakes.
Ye Lanyin didn't miss the jealousy that flashed in Lin Shixuan's eyes just now.
A fourteen-year-old boy is still just a child.
This time, she will no longer stop his white moonlight, nor will she make him do things he doesn't like.
"Brother, brother, I want to go too!"
"Mother, I want to go find my brother."
Ye Lanyin lowered her head, affectionately touched Lin Wanwan's face, and then turned and went back to the main courtyard.
"Madam. The old lady requests your presence."
Ye Lanyin tightened her grip on Lin Wanwan's hand and nodded, "Let's go."
"Madam, why don't you decline and say you're not feeling well?" Hua Xin asked with great concern.
"No need, Huaxin. If not this time, then next time." Ye Lanyin's eyes were empty.
"Yes, madam."
Oh dear, the old lady is definitely up to no good.
[Mother, please don't go! She wants to kill you.]
Ye Lanyin knew perfectly well that her pace quickened considerably as she carried Lin Wanwan.
Before we even got close, we could hear the old lady cursing and swearing.
These were words Ye Lanyin had never heard before.
The old lady from before was very kind to her; she always smiled whenever she saw her, as if she was never unhappy.
Only now do I realize that it was done for my own benefit.
"Mother, did you call me?"
"Lanyin." Old Madam Ye looked displeased upon seeing her. "Lanyin, how long are you going to keep Shiming locked up?"
"He's your own son. In this freezing weather, what if Shimin gets frostbite?"
Madam Ye really dislikes this daughter-in-law now.
She used to be obedient and docile, and she had never treated her children like this before.
How could they possibly lock someone up in an ancestral hall these days?
“Mother, regardless of whether he is her biological son or not, he should be punished for his mistake. Xuan’er made it very clear what happened that day: Shiming had ulterior motives and belittled his siblings.”
"Therefore, what Brother Xuan said is right. After being punished by kneeling for seven days, Lan Yin made him go to the ancestral hall to face the wall."
Ye Lanyin found a seat and sat down leisurely without asking the old lady a single question.
The old lady was furious when she saw that she hadn't even bowed.
"Lanyin, it's just a few words. Shiming is only nine years old, still a child. A slight punishment is enough. Making such a big fuss will only alienate the mother and son," the old lady scolded.
Leaning on his cane, he found a place to sit down, his eyes glancing at the screen from time to time.
Ye Lanyin saw her actions.
Ye Lanyin chuckled softly.
Yes, she's only nine years old, and her "biological" siblings at that. How can someone so young know how to harm her own siblings?
There is no age limit for evil; some people are inherently wicked.
They should have gone to the eighteenth level of hell, but their lives were tough enough to allow them to be reincarnated!
“Mother is right, the punishment shouldn’t be too harsh, but this family precept was established by the old Marquis, and as the mistress of the Marquis of Zhenbei, Lanyin naturally has the duty to obey it.”
"If family precepts can be changed, wouldn't everyone in this household be able to act as a master?"
“Xuan-ge’er is fourteen now. In ordinary families, fourteen-year-olds are already engaged. The reason we haven’t settled down yet is because of the title of Marquis of Zhenbei.”
"The Marquis's mansion will be inherited by Xuan-ge'er in the future. Now that he has tried to handle some things earlier, aren't you happy, Mother?"
Ye Lanyin's eyes were smiling, and her attitude and appearance suggested that she was truly thinking of the household.
[Mom's move was brilliant!]
This is a brilliant move, cutting off their supply lines at the root!
When the old lady heard Ye Lanyin say that the Marquis's mansion was going to stand up for Lin Shixuan, greed and excitement flashed in her eyes.
"Lanyin, are you really planning to give the title of heir of the Marquis's mansion to Shixuan?"
Ye Lanyin chuckled softly without saying a word, then blinked and looked at the old lady not far away.
Seeing this, the old lady hurriedly had her maid help her sit down, and her movements became much more nimble.
But Shiming was still forced to kneel in the ancestral hall as punishment.
She then lowered her eyes again.
Since she's already offered the position of heir apparent, what else could she possibly care about?
Her precious grandson has been suffering for three days.
"Mother, this is the first thing Xuan-ge'er is dealing with. Do you really want to see him suffer because of this?"
"But, Shiming, she..." The old lady hesitated, unable to finish her sentence.
Ye Lanyin interrupted her without thinking.
"Parents who love their children plan far ahead for them. Shiming is wrong, so he should be punished."
"He speaks rudely in the Marquis's residence now, and I can discipline him to some extent. But if he goes outside and offends others, how can we protect him?"
Ye Lanyin looked at the old lady with a worried expression, her voice revealing deep concern.
But the old lady still looked unwilling.
Ye Lanyin said calmly, "Since you think he is right, Mother, then I will take out the things and you can decide."
"What is that?" the old lady raised her voice.
