The old lady spoke with tears in her eyes, kowtowing to Old Master Lin again and again. It was unclear how much force she used, but blood soon welled up on her forehead, staining her ashen old face with bright red blood, making her look like a resentful ghost.
Old Master Lin felt as if someone had hit his heart with a hammer, and he felt a sharp, throbbing pain.
After all, the Dowager Madam was Old Master Lin's biological mother. She had already said so much, and if he kept kowtowing, he would lose his life. How could Old Master Lin dare to refuse? So Aunt Tian entered the house.
The saying "once it happens, it happens again" did not apply to Old Master Lin. For him, Tian's arrival at the mansion was just like completing a task.
Aunt Tian wasn't particularly beautiful, but her physique suggested she was a woman who could bear children easily. Sure enough, she became pregnant just three months after entering the mansion, and eight months later, she gave birth to the eldest son of the Marquis of Anyuan.
When the old lady saw her grandson, she seemed to have fulfilled a long-cherished wish and passed away with a smile. From then on, the old master Lin never entered Tian's room again, nor did he take any other women as wives. He only stayed with the old lady Lin.
After the eldest son came of age, he married and had a son named Lin Ke. The eldest son was well-educated, and after he came of age, Madam Lin became pregnant again and gave birth to another son, Lin Yu'an. He had no desire to compete for the title and treated his younger brother Lin Yu'an very well.
These are all old stories. Lu Qingyan's words stirred up many years of memories for Madam Lin, and her eyes became a little moist: "My lord, my lord is naturally the best husband in the world."
She raised her hand to wipe away her tears, and then the old lady Lin's loving gaze fell on Lu Qingyan: "Yao'er, I also hope that you can get what you want."
Old Madam Lin had no idea what earth-shattering feat her son had accomplished, and naturally, she was unaware that the granddaughter-in-law she had been hoping for had become her daughter-in-law.
Yang Xiuzhu came from the Yang family mansion. Although she is now a concubine, she is still a daughter of the Yang family, and she would definitely be there on a day like today.
Because of Lin Ke and Yang Xiuzhu's affair, Su's father was unwilling to let Yang Xiuzhu leave the Yang State Duke's Mansion. No one knew what method she had used, but now she was standing at the entrance of the Yang State Duke's Mansion perfectly fine, even greeting guests with the old woman beside her.
When Su's mother walked in and saw this scene, she almost turned on her temper.
The Yang family is going too far by bringing the concubine from the Su family here to entertain guests. Is this an insult to the guests or to the Su family?
Either way, it infuriated Su's mother. But she was already at the door, and even if she left now, the gossip wouldn't stop.
Su's mother took a deep breath: "Let's go, I want to see what tricks they're up to here."
Lu Qingyan followed Su's mother to Yang Xiuzhu. Before Su's mother could speak, Lu Qingyan interrupted her.
Yang Xiuzhu is just a concubine now, so there's no need for Mother Su to intervene. Lu Qingyan's status is enough to suppress her.
"Aunt Yang, shouldn't you be copying Buddhist scriptures in the Buddhist hall of the Su residence today to atone for your sins? Why are you here at the Duke Yang's residence?"
Yang Xiuzhu's eyelids trembled slightly; the scars on her face, which hadn't fully healed, were faint.
Lu Qingyan thought sarcastically: "Heh, this recovery ability is really strong. Should I pour some water on that face every night from now on?" Lu Qingyan thought with a wicked sense of humor.
“Young Miss, I am a woman of the Yang family, and I must come here today.”
