Chapter 330: Asking for Dowry
The second and third masters of the Lin family were stared at with hostility by a group of children, who shouted "big bad guy..."
Don't even mention how shameful it is!
They had never been treated like this in their lives.
They both looked at Old Lady Su.
Old Mrs. Su had calmed down and just looked at the two of them indifferently.
There was no intention to stop these kids.
Master Lin Er was embarrassed and said with a guilty tone, "Big sister, my third brother and I have come here to apologize to you. Not only us, but mother is here too..."
As Mr. Lin Erye spoke, the curtain of the sedan chair was lifted, revealing the person inside.
Old Mrs. Su's pupils suddenly shrank.
Could it be that the old woman in the sedan chair, with her white hair, wrinkled face, cloudy eyes, and frail appearance, was...
It has to be said that Old Mrs. Su really didn't dare to associate the person in front of her with the elegant and intellectual second aunt back then.
The old lady was supported by Mother Wang, leaning against the backrest and looking towards Old Madam Su.
"Ahhh... Ru'er..."
The old lady opened her mouth and spoke incoherently, tears streaming from her cloudy eyes.
Old Mrs. Su covered her chest with her hands and tears fell down.
Although she was filled with hatred, Mrs. Su still felt a pang of pain in her heart when she saw the old lady in this state.
When Grandma Du saw the old lady's expression, she was also shocked and sighed deeply.
"Humph! Evil will be punished!"
Grandma Du said this in a huff.
As a caring little girl, little Tangbao immediately took out a handkerchief for his mother.
Old Mrs. Su took the handkerchief, wiped her tears, held her little girl's hand, suppressed the surging emotions in her heart, and looked at the old lady calmly.
"Go away! You are not welcome in our home!" Old Madam Su said indifferently, "I can let go of the past, but please don't show up in front of me again, Lin family!"
After hearing what Old Lady Su said, the old lady raised her hand with great effort and extended it towards Old Lady Su.
"Ahhh... Second Aunt, I'm... I'm not..."
Before the old lady finished speaking, a string of saliva flowed from the corner of her mouth.
Mother Wang quickly wiped the old lady's mouth with a handkerchief.
However, the old lady kept screaming "Ahhh" and looked anxious.
Mother Wang understood what the old lady meant and looked at Old Madam Su with a complicated expression.
"Miss, the old lady said she's sorry, please forgive her..."
"Forgive? Why should I forgive?" Old Madam Su asked coldly, "Just because I don't pursue the matter doesn't mean I forgive!"
When Old Lady Su said this, a hint of sarcasm appeared on her face, and her eyes swept across the faces of the old lady, the second master of the Lin family, and the third master of the Lin family one by one.
Then, he continued, "I will never forgive you! If I hadn't escaped back then, I would have been a pile of dirt by now. Would your Lin family be able to just pretend I fell to my death with a clear conscience? And then, with a clear conscience, take everything that belongs to me?"
Old lady, “…”
The second master of the Lin family, "..."
The third master of the Lin family, "..."
His face was filled with shame and he was speechless.
They have indeed lived these years with peace of mind.
The sarcasm on Old Mrs. Su's face became even more intense.
"That way, no one will ever know the truth about my death!"
"You will never have the audacity to ask for my forgiveness!"
"Why, now that you see I'm still alive, you come to ask for forgiveness?"
"In your eyes, is my life so cheap?"
"As long as you express your opinion, I will forgive you?"
Old Madam Su raised her eyebrows and looked at the Lin family members with cold eyes.
She can choose not to pursue the matter and not to recognize the Lin family.
But she will never forgive!
"Mom's life is not cheap!" Little Tangbao immediately said: "Mom is the most precious baby in our family!"
As Xiao Tangbao started to speak, the second and third masters of the Lin family, as well as the old lady and Mother Wang in the sedan chair, all looked at Xiao Tangbao.
Involuntarily, these people's eyes lit up.
What a cute little girl!
Even without anyone introducing her, they guessed that this must be the blessed little girl whom the old lady wanted to bring into the house.
Soon, everyone's expressions became extremely complicated again.
They naturally knew that the reason why the Duke's Mansion fell into this state was because of this little girl.
After Xiao Tangbao finished speaking, he pointed at the Lin family with his chubby little hand and said, "These people are cheap! What is Master talking about? That's right, shameless and shameless! These people are just like that! They are not even worth a single finger of my mother's!"
Everyone in the Lin family, "..."
Being pointed at and scolded by a little girl, my complicated mood turned into humiliation.
Mr. Lin San bent his knees and knelt down.
"Big sister, we know we don't deserve your forgiveness, nor do we have the face to ask for it. We came here today to atone for our sins..."
Mr. Lin San's face was filled with shame and he couldn't raise his head.
Seeing this, Master Lin also knelt down and said miserably, "Big sister, you have seen what my mother looks like now. My father's title has been stripped by the emperor. The Lin family has fallen on hard times. This is retribution. Please, big sister..."
Mr. Lin suddenly couldn't say the word "forgive".
He knew in his heart that he asked for forgiveness not only to seek peace of mind for himself, but also to protect the Lin family's property.
Little Tangbao pouted his lips.
In the final analysis, what I really want is for my mother to forgive them.
Humph! How can it be so cheap?
Do you think that just carrying two thorns will solve the problem?
Just because her mother may not pursue the matter doesn't mean she won't!
There are some things I originally thought about, but will talk about them later.
However, since these people have come to us on their own accord, let's make it clear now.
Anyway, it will be made clear sooner or later!
Anyway, some things will come back sooner or later!
Wouldn’t it be better to repair bridges and roads?
Isn’t it good to do good and accumulate virtue?
Why should we let these heartless people get away with it for free?
Thinking of this, Little Tangbao said angrily, "Mom, we won't forgive these people. They say they are asking for forgiveness, but they don't mean it at all!"
After saying that, he looked at his second sister-in-law Qian Yuemei.
Qian Yuemei, “…”
What are you looking at me for?
Little Sugar Baby, "..."
At the critical moment, why did you fail me, second sister-in-law?
Yesterday you were still trying to steal business from the kids.
That's just a little more money?
Now there is a large sum of money belonging to our family in front of us, why don’t you say anything?
Little Tangbao blinked his eyes.
Qian Yuemei, "...Aunt, are you blinded? How about I blow on you..."
Little Sugar Baby, "..."
The corners of his mouth twitched.
Forget it, it’s too difficult for me to keep a low profile!
Just do it yourself!
So, Xiao Tangbao had no choice but to speak in a low voice and said, "Grandma said that when grandma married grandpa, she brought a lot of dowry..."
Qian Yuemei suddenly came to her senses.
Yes! How could she forget such a big thing?
Since my mother-in-law's mother had a large dowry, now all the dowries should belong to our family!
Qian Yuemei immediately became excited.
"That's right! It is said that the procession of people delivering the dowry is very long." Qian Yuemei took over the conversation in a loud voice, looking at Grandma Du with shining eyes, "Isn't it true? Grandma, you said so..."
"Yes! The Duke's wife's dowry back then caused a sensation throughout the capital." Grandma Du said loudly and vividly, "Logically, all that dowry should belong to the eldest daughter!"
Grandma Du said this, looking at the Lin family and deliberately said: "I wonder if the Lin family will continue to be so shameless and occupy it?"
