Chapter 442: Giving her the Duke's Mansion



Chapter 442: Giving her the Duke's Mansion

Old Man Su turned his head and found that he didn't know which direction his father-in-law was buried.

So, Old Man Su held the dagger in his hands with a worshipful mood and said, "Wife, let's go to the graves of my father-in-law and mother-in-law someday and pay our respects properly."

As soon as Old Man Su finished speaking, before Old Lady Su could say anything, Lin Hong's eyes lit up.

If my niece and niece-in-law could go back to pay their respects, my elder brother and sister-in-law would definitely be very happy in heaven.

Old Mrs. Su naturally also wanted to go back to pay homage to her parents.

After all, she is her parents' only child.

For all these years, she has never burned a stick of incense in front of her parents' graves, which is extremely unfilial.

Old Mrs. Su looked at Old Man Su with gratitude, her husband always kept his word.

Now that he said that, he would definitely take me back to worship his parents.

"Okay! When the time comes, we'll take the children with us and let our parents see them..." Old Mrs. Su's voice was a little choked.

"Yes, yes! Our whole family will go! Our daughter will go too! Let the parents-in-law see our daughter..."

Old man Su never forgets to show off his daughter.

Even if it's to visit the graves of my father-in-law and mother-in-law.

Old Mrs. Su's sad mood was broken by Old Man Su.

Then, his eyes fell on the bright red wedding dress.

Of course she recognized the wedding dress; it belonged to her mother.

She didn't expect that this wedding dress would be preserved until now.

Old Mrs. Su had seen most of the other things in the box. They were all from her mother's dowry, or ornaments in her mother's house when she was alive.

Especially the pair of cloisonné enamel double-handled pots and the matching small cups are extremely rare.

Because the tea poured from the pot falls into the cup, the fish at the bottom of the cup seems to be alive and swims freely at the bottom of the cup.

When she was a child, she often brewed tea for fun, poured it into the cup, and watched the fish swim.

Old Mrs. Su touched the cup, a hint of nostalgia flashing in her eyes.

"Big sister, Dad has put a lot of effort into retrieving these things." Third Master Lin suddenly said, "Not only that, Dad even went to Shuntian Prefecture and sued Second Sister."

Old Mrs. Su was stunned.

Sued?

The father sued his own daughter?

In this case, no matter what the result is, there will probably be no place for Lin Wanyu to stand in the capital anymore, right?

Just as Mrs. Su had this thought, Third Master Lin said, "Second sister has now been sentenced to exile."

Old Mrs. Su, “…”

Old Mrs. Su looked at Lin Hong with shock on her face.

A trace of sadness flashed in Lin Hong's eyes.

After all, Lin Wanyu is his biological daughter.

Whenever I think about it now, I still feel heartbroken.

"That unfilial girl deserves it!" Lin Hong said with pain, "She almost killed you back then, and she's still stubborn. Second Uncle promised to seek justice for you, and he'll certainly do what he says!"

Old Mrs. Su, “…”

It would be a lie to say I wasn't moved.

How could she have imagined that Lin Hong would go to such lengths for her?

Old Mrs. Su's lips moved.

However, he never called out the words "Second Uncle".

"Big sister, you might not know this, but not only did Second Sister pay the price for what happened back then, but the Qiu family is also finished." Third Master Lin continued, "Second Sister single-handedly dragged not only Qiu Songbai to death row, but also the entire Shangshu Mansion into the water."

Mr. Lin paused here, and a complicated expression appeared on his face.

"Not only that, many officials in the capital were also implicated due to my second sister's report. The entire capital was in a state of panic..."

As Mr. Lin Sanye spoke, he felt that his second sister was really amazing.

He almost admires his second sister.

If that wasn't his own sister, he would have suspected that she was a political enemy of Minister Qiu and was sent undercover to the Qiu family.

Old Mrs. Su was dumbfounded.

She didn't understand the court affairs, but she was able to stir up panic in the entire capital, which was definitely not something that an ordinary person could do.

My cousin is indeed not an ordinary person.

Old Mrs. Su suddenly felt that she was very lucky to have survived her clutches.

After Third Master Lin finished speaking, he looked at Old Madam Su and added in a somewhat complicated voice, "Second sister has been sentenced to exile in Lingnan and will be passing through Fengqi County soon..."

Old Mrs. Su, “…”

Fengqi County?

Old Mrs. Su was shocked.

Then, he lowered his eyes and said nothing.

There was no need for her and Lin Wanyu to meet again.

She disdains to take advantage of others' misfortune and laugh at Lin Wanyu.

Of course, no one would sympathize with her miserable situation.

Because she deserved it!

Seeing this, Mr. Lin San sighed silently.

Some things, once they happen, can never be undone.

Lin Hong took out a box from the chest, opened it, and said, "Ruru, inside are the deeds to several shops in the capital, the deeds to a farm outside the city, and... the deeds to the Lin residence."

A complex look flashed across Lin Hong's eyes.

Then, he took out the top deed.

He continued, "This house was originally the Duke's Mansion bestowed upon my eldest brother by the Emperor. It should have belonged to your eldest wife. After the Emperor stripped me of my title, he did not take the house back. Now I have transferred it to your name and assigned a few old servants from the Lin family to look after it..."

Old Mrs. Su was surprised.

His second uncle actually gave her the Duke's mansion!

The Duke's Mansion was given to her. Where do you, the entire Lin family, live now?

"Then... where do you live now?" asked Old Mrs. Su with a complicated expression.

"Second Uncle is old, it doesn't matter where he lives." Lin Hong said indifferently.

But his expression was full of desolation.

When Mrs. Su saw Lin Hong like this, she couldn't help but feel a pain in her heart.

Her second uncle was also full of vigor and ambition in the past, but now he is so destitute...

"Big sister, we are now living in a house in the outer city." Mr. Lin San said, "The house is not big, but after dismissing the servants, it is still livable."

Old Mrs. Su, “…”

He looked at Lin Hong, then at Mr. Lin Sanye.

She could naturally see that her second uncle and her cousin were not pretending.

"Actually, this house belongs to the Lin family." Old Madam Su said hesitantly, "I'm just a married woman, I shouldn't want this house..."

Although this house is not the Lin family's ancestral home, it is also the foundation of the Lin family.

"Ruru, this is what the Lin family owes you, and it's also what your second uncle owes you!"

After Lin Hong finished speaking, he put the box and the house deed into the hands of Old Lady Su.

Old Mrs. Su, “…”

The box in my hand feels heavy.

"Ruru, Second Uncle congratulates you on your new home. Seeing that you are living so well now, Second Uncle is relieved." Lin Hong said, "Second Uncle will... go back first."

Lin Hong paused, then turned around and strode out.

"Second Uncle!"

Old Mrs. Su finally couldn't help it and blurted out.

Lin Hong's body suddenly stiffened.

Then, he slowly turned around, his eyes already filled with tears.

"Ruru, you are finally willing to call me Second Uncle again."

Lin Hong's face was full of excitement, his voice was trembling, and he almost shed tears.

God knows how long he has been waiting for this call of "Second Uncle"!
