"Mrs. Xia, are you finished?" Her tone was neither cold nor hot.
Mrs. Xia was stunned for a moment and said, "I'm done. Do you have anything to say?!"
Lin Yin nodded: "Mrs. Xia is going to great lengths to talk to a nobody like me, so I naturally have to give her face and show respect."
Mrs. Xia frowned: "What do you mean."
Lin Yin smiled faintly: "Let's analyze what Mrs. Xia just said."
“???”
"If I remember correctly, Aunt Xia just said that Miss Xia Xuexia and Huo Yicheng are of similar age, and according to your opinion, they should get married."
Mrs. Xia nodded: "That's right, do you have any comments?"
"Did the Huo family agree?"
“…” These five words choked Mrs. Xia.
Seeing her expression, Lin Yin knew almost everything. Without any panic, she continued, "Also, how did you know I was the one in the underground?"
"Need I say more?" Mrs. Xia snorted coldly. "Don't blame me for being blunt. Just this bag I'm carrying is probably worth a year's worth of your family's living expenses! The difference in our lives isn't just a little bit. You have to know your place!"
The ladies who followed behind to watch the fun couldn't help laughing.
Mrs. Xia is not being harsh, that’s the truth.
How much money can a rural person invest in himself in a year? Ten thousand? No.
There is still a big gap between people!
Lin Yin didn't care about Mrs. Xia's sarcasm at all: "Besides, how do you know that the days of wealth and prosperity don't belong to me?"
This time, without waiting for Mrs. Xia to speak, Lin Yin continued, "I don't need to elaborate on the status of the Huo family in the capital for so many years. You all know it well. According to what Mrs. Xia just said, the Huo family needs to marry into your family in order to consolidate its position? When did the Huo family become so embarrassed that they even have to sacrifice Huo Yicheng's marriage?"
"I!" Mrs. Xia choked. That wasn't what she meant.
Although the Huo family does not need a marriage alliance, their Xia family does!
As long as they hold on to the Huo family tightly, their Xia family can have a more stable position in the capital.
"My background is indeed something I cannot refute, but Mrs. Xia, without knowing me, firmly believed that I was the one in the underground, and even thought that I was an ugly duckling trying to become a white swan. Are you doubting Huo Yicheng's judgment, or are you doubting the Huo family's judgment?"
"You!" Mrs. Xia was furious: "Don't try to sow discord!"
"I would never do such a wicked thing." Lin Yin said calmly, "I just got this information from what Mrs. Xia said just now."
Her gaze fell on the wealthy ladies beside her: "Excuse me, do you all think so too?"
“…” Lin Yin asked so directly that the ladies felt a little embarrassed.
There were several noble ladies who were on good terms with Mrs. Huo, and they also felt that Mrs. Xia was going a bit too far. Even if Lin Yin was really a country girl, it was indeed a bit disrespectful for her to open her mouth and shout in such a large banquet.
"Jinfeng, no matter what, this girl is chosen by Yunyun, so we have to give her face."
"That's right, Yicheng and her are just in a relationship now. Whether they can get married is still a question. You don't have to be too critical of her."
But there were also two noble ladies standing on Mrs. Xia's side.
"I think what Jin Feng said makes a lot of sense. Heaven is heaven, and underground is underground. Don't cross the line!"
