"Lord Zhenbei, I apologize for disturbing you, I apologize for disturbing you..."
General Yao walked into the room happily, only to find that the Marquis of Zhenbei was lying on a wooden frame.
Suddenly, I forgot what I was going to say and stood there stunned.
Marquis Zhenbei coughed awkwardly, "General Yao, it's a pleasure to meet you."
Today, he is not on the list of those who will fight him.
He said that there must be people who would not stand by and watch what Lin Chang'an did.
Could it be that someone came to pity him?
That's wonderful.
Forget about sympathy or anything else, as long as we're on the same side!
"My lord, my son told me yesterday that Lin Chang'an took my daughter to a private garden."
"I happened to be busy at the time and couldn't take them in, so I had my son Qian Shu take them. I really feel bad about that..."
Upon hearing this, the Marquis of Zhenbei smiled apologetically and said, "General Yao, please don't be sad. This is because my unfilial son disobeyed me and took my daughter to the private garden, where he bullied those little girls."
"You've come here to show your concern for your humble servant, haven't you?"
“It’s perfect timing. I’m disciplining my unfilial son, so I’ll let General Yao witness the process. That way, I can give the other ministers an explanation tomorrow and prevent them from saying that I spoil him.”
General Yao was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and quickly explained, "No, Marquis of Zhenbei, I heard that my daughter was born with..."
“I know my daughter has a bad fate. I didn’t want to talk about such a family scandal, but I didn’t expect General Yao to be so discerning.”
"Alas, ever since my daughter was born, there has never been any peace in the manor. I suppose it is because my daughter's fate is not good and she is incompatible with the Marquis's family."
"General Yao, today I have first reprimanded my unfilial son to give the ministers an explanation. As for my daughter... we'll talk about her another day."
After he finished speaking, he shouted, "What are you all standing there for?"
"Drag Lin Chang'an to the courtyard and give him thirty lashes!"
"Yes, sir."
General Yao and Yao Qianshu stood there, listening in stunned silence.
Yao Qianshu only realized what was happening when the Marquis of Zhenbei said he was going to attack Lin Chang'an.
He asked urgently, "Why did you hit him?"
He pointed to Lin Chang'an, whose eyes were red from crying.
Marquis Zhenbei was somewhat displeased to be interrupted again, but he let it go for the sake of General Yao.
"He is so young, yet his mind is full of evil thoughts. Yesterday, he bullied many of the ministers' daughters in his private garden."
Yao Qianshu blinked his innocent-looking big eyes.
"How could that be? He was with me and my sister the whole day yesterday, he didn't leave the room the entire time, how could he have had the chance to meet other girls?"
Upon hearing this, the Marquis of Zhenbei was dumbfounded.
"What? Not him?"
Yao Qianshu shook his head. "No, if he went to play with those girls, would I not know?"
"Chu Zisheng was also there yesterday; we can all testify to that."
When Lin Chang'an saw him defending him, he hurriedly said, "Father, did you hear that? It wasn't me. I told you, it was Lin Shiming. You don't believe me and you insist on hitting me."
Am I really your son?
General Yao scoffed at the way the Marquis of Zhenbei acted as a father.
His face was cold:
"My lord, I have brought my son here today to see my daughter. I have heard that she is very cute and clever, so I have come to ask for a hug."
"I never imagined that the Marquis's household was so busy."
He walked to Huaxin's side and looked at Lin Wanwan in her arms.
With a small, chubby face no bigger than the palm of a hand, she was holding a milk bottle and glaring angrily at the Marquis of Zhenbei.
The child's eyes seemed to speak volumes.
For no apparent reason, he reached out and touched her cheek.
Ye Lanyin looked at him with great interest and walked over with a smile, "General, if you don't mind, please give me a hug."
General Yao was overjoyed and quickly took Lin Wanwan from Hua Xin's hands.
Xihan coaxed and laughed at Lin Wanwan, making her giggle non-stop.
Why is General Yao acting like a fool?
Poor Aunt Han, she married a fool and gave birth to a fool...
Ye Lanyin coughed lightly;
Fortunately, they couldn't hear.
It's astonishing to see a man who is usually unconventional and decisive being so gentle with his daughter.
Let's take a look at the Marquis of Zhenbei.
Ye Lanyin felt even more disgusted with the Marquis of Zhenbei.
Both the Marquis of Zhenbei and the old lady were stunned by the sudden change in the style of the painting.
Not Lin Chang'an?
It can't really be...
The old lady lowered her head to look at her grandson in her arms.
She remembered that the last time Lin Chang'an was punished by Ye Lanyin to kneel in the ancestral hall, it was because he had been secretly reading pornographic books.
Her palms trembled for no reason.
"I have come at an inopportune time today, and I apologize for disturbing you."
General Yao returned Lin Wanwan to Ye Lanyin.
He then looked at the Marquis of Zhenbei with disappointment.
"Since Your Excellency is busy, I shall take my leave."
As he reached the door, General Yao paused for a moment. "I heard that the one who harassed those little girls yesterday was my fourth son, Lin Shiming."
"The Marquis is probably in disarray when dealing with family matters."
After saying that, he and Yao Qianshu turned and left.
I originally came here hoping to curry favor with the Marquis of Zhenbei, but I didn't expect him to be so sexist.
Moreover, when dealing with family matters, he makes up stories haphazardly and is biased and selfish.
Ye Lanyin... she's really blind.
Could it be that the rumors circulating in Bianjing about their harmonious marriage were false?
Marquis Zhenbei was taken aback, but then he thought about it.
General Yao's wife and Ye Lanyin are very close friends, so she must have come to help her.
"Madam, how could you possibly collude with outsiders now? How could you talk about the family affairs of this household and your handkerchiefs?"
"And they even brought reinforcements for Lin Chang'an?"
"You've spoiled this child rotten!"
"You are becoming increasingly derelict in your duties as the mistress of this noble household!"
He was furious.
Ye Lanyin has actually disregarded the reputation of the Marquis's mansion and resorted to such despicable means.
[What a jerk of a dad.]
[Shut him up!]
Lin Wanwan's thoughts settled.
Suddenly, the Marquis of Zhenbei's mouth twitched, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood.
He was so frightened he almost fainted.
When the old lady saw his appearance, she quickly released Lin Shiming. "Dehong, what's wrong with you?"
"Waaah, Mother (wolf), son, my mouth hurts." He mumbled indistinctly, which made the old lady panic.
The more Ye Lanyin looked at him, the more unlucky she seemed.
"Quickly, someone come here and summon the chief physician."
"Yes, Madam." Granny Mei was terrified.
I bit my tongue out of nowhere.
I really shouldn't have said that!
Everyone was in a flurry of activity and didn't pay any attention to Lin Shiming.
Ye Lanyin glanced at him, "Shiming, go back with your mother."
Lin Shiming trembled, "Yes, Mother."
Before leaving, Ye Lanyin paused for a moment.
"Since Your Excellency has bitten your tongue, I will not disturb you any longer."
"Your Excellency just said that I am not worthy to be the mistress of the house. May I ask, Your Excellency, who do you think is worthy?"
"If the Marquis feels that I am not worthy, I can divorce you at any time."
