Chapter 67: A Daughter Born in a Coffin
Lin's mother slapped her forehead immediately.
That's right. With his son's current status and position, there's no need for him to lack women to bear children. It's just that he is short-sighted.
Besides, now that Xiu'er has won the favor of the daughter of a duke, how can he allow an evil fetus that will hinder his future to remain in the mansion?
"That won't do. What rich young lady would be willing to become a stepmother just by marrying into the family? It would be better for the child to die like his mother."
But in an instant, Lin's mother had made her choice.
Father Lin smiled with satisfaction.
That's right.
If you want grandchildren, when can you not have them?
Why do we have to wait until now?
He turned around and told Mother Lin, "Let's hurry up and put her in the coffin. Then we can say she died suddenly and no one will think anything of it."
Mother Lin nodded hurriedly and put Jin Tao into the coffin with Father Lin.
However, just when Lin's father and mother wanted to close the coffin, something unexpected happened.
Jin Tao, who should have fainted, was sweating profusely at this moment, and her face turned pale as she opened her red eyes.
"Mom and Dad, I...my belly..."
She hadn't even realized that she was stuffed into the coffin. She just subconsciously stretched out her hand and wanted to say that her stomach hurt.
However, Lin's father and mother changed their previous gentle and loving appearance, and gradually revealed their ferocious faces, revealing their inherent cruelty.
"Jin Tao, why did you wake up? You deserve it!"
As Lin's mother said this, she was about to close the coffin.
Jin Tao's eyes were bloodshot. She had never expected that her mother-in-law, who had just told her from the bottom of her heart that she was a great contributor to the Lin family, would now stuff her into a coffin alive.
"mother!"
"I……"
She wanted to ask me what I had done wrong and why I was treated like this?
She clung to the coffin door with her hands, trying hard to escape from it.
Lin's father and mother tried their best but still couldn't close the coffin.
Mother Lin gritted her teeth and slapped Jin Tao in the face, "Little bitch! Let go!"
"Who are you now, and what is my son's status? How dare you covet the position of the top scholar's wife?!"
"Old man, what are you still standing there for? Bring me the axe! If she doesn't let go, I'll chop her hand off with the axe!"
At worst, I could just cut off her hand and throw it into the coffin!
Father Lin obediently went to get the axe. At the end, he couldn't help but sigh and said in a pretentious manner: "Taotao, don't blame me and your mother. There's nothing we can do."
"It's not that we want you dead."
As he spoke, Mr. Lin seemed to believe his own words. He even burst into tears and his voice choked.
He cried with tears and snot, "Don't your mother and I know that you are the great contributor to our Lin family? Don't we know how much you have sacrificed for Xiu'er?"
"However, the people should not fight against the officials. Xiu'er is both talented and handsome. His face is quite attractive. As soon as he entered the capital, he attracted the daughter of the Jian'an Marquis Mansion who was determined to marry him."
"Our Xiu'er is completely infatuated with you, but he's resisting death. He says he'll never be like Chen Shimei and would rather die than abandon his wife!"
As Father Lin spoke, he even knelt down to Jin Tao.
"But those people won't give up just because he's married. They threaten him with Xiu'er's future and say..."
Mother Lin also knelt down before Jin Tao and tearfully continued what Father Lin had said, "He also said that if Xiu'er didn't marry her, the entire Lin family would be buried with you."
"Originally...originally Xiu'er had already prepared to pack up and leave the capital, and had even started making preparations to quickly send someone to pick you up."
"But Taotao, how could he have hidden his thoughts from Li Shuhui, the daughter of the Marquis's family? She knew what he was planning long ago and actually held him captive!"
Lin's mother was trembling all over, as if she was taking it very seriously.
She closed her eyes, and her red lips suddenly turned pale and bloodless.
"Taotao, mother knows you're a good girl. Even if our Lin family has wronged you, mother has no other options. Miss Li sent someone here and said..."
"She said that if you weren't buried alive to make room for her, she would kill Xiu'er and our entire family!"
As Mother Lin spoke, she knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Jin Tao several times, "Taotao, we, the Lin family, have let you down in this life. In the next life, we will work like slaves for you to atone for our sins. Taotao, we're so sorry!"
Jin Tao must die today!
As she spoke, she snatched the axe from Lin's father's hand.
But before the axe could fall, Jin Tao's hands and feet curled up because of the severe stomach pain. She subconsciously covered her stomach, which just made room for Lin's father and mother.
The two men quickly covered the coffin.
After that, someone was asked to pull Jin Tao's coffin to the back mountain and bury it.
The two men acted in a hurry.
Or maybe they really believed their own words and thought they were forced.
He even forgot to find someone to suppress it.
Looking at the lonely grave, Mother Lin's eyes were still filled with viciousness. "Taotao, don't blame me and your father, and don't blame Xiu'er. If you want to blame someone, blame that cruel and short-lived Li Shuhui. If they hadn't used their power to oppress others, how could we have done this?"
"Go with peace of mind. From now on, your father and I will come to burn incense for you during every festival."
…
"If it weren't for you...if it weren't for you guys who had me buried alive, how could I have suffocated to death in the coffin!"
Jin Tao stared at Li Shuhui and Chen in front of her with hatred.
This mother and daughter were adorned with jewels and looked so gentle and virtuous. If only I were not the victim killed by their Li family, I would be in trouble.
I'm afraid that at this moment I will be deceived by the hypocritical faces of this mother and daughter.
Li Shuhui's face suddenly turned extremely pale.
She shook her head, not knowing whether to sympathize or what to do at that moment.
"I...I have never done such a thing. Neither my mother nor I have done such a thing!"
