Chapter 137: Cut it off quickly
The lacquered wooden door closed behind Yin Dong, and the lights in the spacious house were bright. Those precious flowers and trees were trimmed by his mother Sun Mei herself on a daily basis. Unlike other wives of officials, Sun Mei did not like socializing or shopping, and had low material desires, but she had a special liking for these flowers and plants.
She went to the senior citizens' university to study gardening courses. The layout of the courtyard was well-arranged and very elegant. The bougainvilleas were vying to exude fragrance, and several carefully cared-for Gabrielle plants had already opened their light mist-colored petals and stood gracefully on the branches.
Yin Dong walked casually along the stone path, came to the door of the main hall, and pushed it open.
In the main hall, which was decorated in a simple and elegant style, Sun Mei was drinking tea with Yin Zhengxian.
Yin Dong's body was covered with a biting cold wind, breaking the tranquility and warmth in the room. "Drinking tea so late at night, have you two been sleeping well recently?"
Sun Mei caught sight of him and immediately put down her teacup. She stood up, looking him up and down as she instructed the servant beside her, "Aunt Zhang, go get him a bowl of the ginseng and black chicken soup from the pot."
After she finished speaking, she added, "And bring him the lamb kidneys that we stewed tonight. Forget it, I'll go."
Yin Dong raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Did you stew it specially for me?"
Sun Mei stopped walking, turned around and gave him a fierce look, "I'm going to replenish your body."
Yin Dong raised the corner of his lips wickedly, "If someone didn't know, they would think you were going to give me confinement. How did you know I was weak?"
Sun Mei angrily glared at him again, "Don't be so rude, your father and I are still mad at each other."
After she finished speaking, she went into the kitchen angrily.
Yin Dong sat down on the sofa opposite Yin Zhengxian, suppressed his smile, and asked slowly, "Aren't you afraid that your anger will harm your health? How did I make you angry again? Why did you have to call me back so late at night?"
Yin Zhengxian sipped his tea and glanced at him indifferently, "Why haven't you been home lately? Are you hanging around with a woman?"
Yin Dong's face was as calm as expected. He changed his sitting position, leaning against the back of the sofa, crossing his legs, and replied in a casual tone: "I don't think it's a big deal. I don't do it with women, but if I do it with men, will you and my mother be happy with it?"
With a "pa" sound, Yin Zhengxian put the teacup on the mahogany table. "You are getting more and more outrageous. You leave Jiang Yu behind and insist on finding a questionable woman from outside. Who are you trying to slap in the face?"
Yin Dong still had a hint of a smile on his face, but his tone was extremely dull. "The Jiang family isn't worried, so why are you? Are you still afraid of offending Old Master Jiang? He's already half buried in the ground. With your current position, you can't get in the way, right?"
He had this ability since he was a child. Just two words could make Yin Zhengxian so angry that he wanted to hit him. Yin Zhengxian held his breath and said in a deep voice: "If you don't marry Jiang Yu, I won't force you. Just break up with that woman named Jiang Yuan as soon as possible."
Yin Dong's eyes darkened.
At this time, Sun Mei came out of the kitchen. Behind her, her aunt carefully placed the blue and white porcelain soup bowl on the table in front of Yin Dong.
The black chicken soup in the bowl was simmered until it turned white, and steam with a rich aroma rose from the bowl, filling his nose. Yin Dong glanced down at the bowl of soup and asked calmly, "She's just a little girl, how could she have offended you?"
"If she really was from an ordinary family with a clean background, why would we care about you? Have you investigated her family background? With your status, this matter cannot be taken lightly."
Sun Mei spoke before Yin Zhengxian could speak.
