As soon as the woman left, the crowd immediately exploded.
"I never thought it would turn out like this."
"This scholar Fu is truly a man of appearances. To conceal the truth, he even went so far as to put the blame on his own wife. It's truly chilling and shameful."
"Fortunately, he is a scholar. His character is so bad. It is really disgusting."
"Didn't you see that Lin Shi actually had the nerve to come to us and cry about her grievances? Only someone as black-hearted as Lin Shi could do such a despicable thing."
"This Miss Bei is truly pitiful, marrying such a man. She carried it all on her own out of consideration for the Fu family's reputation. It's truly admirable."
"That's right. Miss Bei is a good person, but unfortunately she has a bad fate. She married a man like this. Her life will be miserable from now on."
"The Fu family is so ungrateful, they will suffer in the future."
…
After the group of women left, they each met a woman they knew and started whispering about it. After each woman finished speaking, she would remind them not to tell anyone else about it.
Everyone who heard it agreed readily, but when they turned around and met other women they knew, they immediately exaggerated the story and told it to others.
Fu Yibo and Lin Shi naturally still didn't know that the situation outside had changed.
Lin watched the workers move the furniture into the house one by one. She was very attracted by the furnishings and decorations of the two rooms and immediately decided to live in the wing facing east.
Someone was asked to help vacate both rooms, and four maids and servants worked together to clean up. By the afternoon, everything was in order.
"Hongmei, Luhe, carry all my things into this room." Bei Yutang commanded them.
Mrs. Lin stood in the house, looking at the furniture and decorations, and liked them very much. When she saw her ordering people to move things in, she knew that she was preparing to move in.
Lin smiled and said to Nanny Wang and Nanny Liu, "You two move the things in my room to the room next door."
Nanny Wang and Nanny Liu stood there without moving.
Seeing that they didn't move, Lin frowned, "Why, I can't tell you to do anything?"
Bei Yutang said to them, "You two go help Hongmei and the others move their things here as soon as possible."
After she finished speaking, Bei Yutang looked towards Lin, "Mother-in-law, the room next door is where Hongmei and the other maids and the old women live."
"What?!" Lin was immediately furious. "Such a nice house, why should they live in it? They are just servants."
Bei Yutang corrected him expressionlessly, "They are not servants, but my family."
Lin was furious. "Am I not one? I am your mother-in-law, your elder. We are in our Fu family now, not your Bei family. Whoever I decide to let live here will get to live here."
"Since my mother-in-law wants to live there, I, as her daughter-in-law, can't say anything. Then let Luhe and the others live in the room you vacated." Bei Yutang continued.
Lin was about to say no, but was stared at coldly by Bei Yutang, so she finally agreed.
Seeing Lin's actions, Lu He pouted in dissatisfaction, "Miss, are you really going to let her stay?"
Bei Yutang didn't say anything, but Aunt Liu beside her said, "The old lady is the elder, she wants to stay, how can the young lady refuse?"
