After Lin Yuxin and Xueying returned home and finished dinner, she didn't go to her mother's place but went straight back to her own courtyard. After changing her clothes, she looked at the cloak beside her and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
"I'll give it back to him when I have the chance!"
Lin Yuxin muttered to herself.
"Coo coo coo!"
A rumbling sound from her stomach brought her back to her senses, and she called out.
"Xiaodie, quick, bring me my meal! I'm starving!"
"yes!"
After Lin Yuxin finished eating and drinking, she went to check on Xiao Hao and found that he was already asleep, so she didn't disturb him and went back to her room to sleep.
The next day, Lin Yuxin went straight to her mother's yard after getting up. She hoped her mother didn't know she had come back late the day before!
Lin Yuxin stepped into Xuanlin Pavilion with a glimmer of hope, only to see her mother sitting expressionlessly in the seat of honor, taking out scissors and beginning to prune the flower branches.
With each snip, Lin Yuxin's heart trembled; she felt as if she were cutting her life!
"Mother!"
Lin Yuxin nervously greeted Zhao Hanyue.
Zhao Hanyue glanced at her sideways and asked sternly:
"You actually know how to come back? Where did you go last night?"
"Mother, I went to the temple outside Chengdu yesterday to pray for blessings, so I came back late. I won't do it again next time!"
Lin Yuxin lied out of guilt.
I can't very well tell my mother that I went to the Regent to warn him about the Qi envoy! This secret meeting with another man will only make her angrier! It's better not to tell her!
Zhao Hanyue felt a sense of helplessness. Her daughter was too ambitious and didn't tell her about these things. She wanted to help, but she couldn't be too obvious about it.
Moreover, if this matter involves the envoy and concerns the diplomatic relations between the two countries, then the regent is indeed more suitable.
Zhao Hanyue suppressed her worries. Her daughter was doing this for the sake of the General Zhenguo's Mansion, and she couldn't hold her back.
"Alright, be careful when you go out in the future, and don't come back too late, okay?"
Zhao Hanyue's worries eventually turned into words of advice.
"Yes, Mother!"
Seeing that her mother didn't blame her, Lin Yuxin immediately cheered, hehe!! Having escaped a disaster, she remembered something and whispered:
"By the way, regarding your three-day agreement with your father, will he keep his promise and divorce you?"
“It doesn’t matter. I never expected to get a divorce from him anyway. He didn’t even get his dowry. If he divorces me now, he’ll be the one who loses out! He’ll definitely try to stall for time.”
Zhao Hanyue knew Lin Xiong'an very well and knew what kind of person he was.
[Mother, that's not all. Besides wanting your dowry, he also wants my elder brother's military power as a pledge of allegiance to the Sixth Prince. My elder brother hasn't relinquished his military power yet, so he won't divorce you.]
However, this time Lin Qianqian was betrothed to someone else instead of the Sixth Prince, so she's probably determined to gain military power!
Lin Yuxin mentally cursed her scumbag father for his heartlessness.
Zhao Hanyue's hands clenched unconsciously. She had just said that Lin Xiong'an went to the Sixth Prince's residence after leaving the mansion yesterday, and she thought that the Sixth Prince was the mastermind behind this incident!
In the end, he himself had to fawn over them, using his own family's blood to pave the way for his career!
“Mother, if we don’t get a divorce this time, I have a way to get him to bring it up himself.”
Lin Yuxin thought about it for a moment and realized that dragging it out like this wasn't a solution; she needed to sever ties with her scumbag father as soon as possible.
"What method?"
Zhao Hanyue snapped out of her daze, looked at her daughter curiously, and asked.
"Hehe, the main reason Mother doesn't divorce you is because you're still useful. What if you're no longer useful?"
Lin Yuxin said mysteriously.
Zhao Hanyue understood. She looked at her daughter and said with amusement:
"You're so clever. Your mother should handle this herself. Don't get involved. It's not good for a daughter to interfere in her parents' divorce."
"Alright! Daughter understands."
Lin Yuxin shrugged indifferently. As long as her mother and her scumbag father could successfully divorce, she was willing to retreat behind the scenes.
"Madam, Wang Siqin has come to the manor."
At this moment, a servant came in to report.
"I guess it's because of Lin Qianqian's marriage. Her daughter married a peasant, she must be furious! She must have gone to make a scene with her scumbag father."
Lin Yuxin immediately realized the purpose of her visit and said with schadenfreude.
"As long as they don't come looking for trouble, let them do whatever they want."
Zhao Hanyue was not surprised by Wang Siqin's arrival; it would have been strange if she hadn't come.
“Mother, I think she will definitely come and make a scene.”
Lin Yuxin said with certainty.
[That woman Wang Siqin, her own daughter suffered such a huge loss this time, she has to come and demand justice! But it would be strange if they agreed to marry him so easily, they're probably already plotting something.]
Lin Yuxin touched her chin, deep in thought.
Zhao Hanyue also realized that she would have to work harder to pin them down.
Sure enough, just before lunchtime, Wang Siqin came over in a rage.
"Zhao Hanya!!"
The person arrived before the voice.
Lin Yuxin was about to pick up her chopsticks to eat. She had stayed in her mother's courtyard for her meal today to watch the excitement.
And these actors really know how to pick their time, coming over during mealtime! Isn't that just making people have indigestion?
Lin Yuxin rolled her eyes as she watched Wang Siqin stride in.
"Smack!"
"Siqin, what are you doing? Do you think my Lin mansion is your home? Where are your rules? Where is your decorum?"
Zhao Hanyue slammed her hand on the table and said sternly to Wang Siqin as she entered.
Wang Siqin was completely stunned by Zhao Hanyue's outburst. It was the first time she had ever seen Zhao Hanyue so fierce. She used to be gentle and mild-mannered, and even when she was angry, she would remain expressionless and silent. But today, she was unleashing her full power.
