Lin Mo said solemnly, word by word, "The marriage between your son Tang Jie and my second brother Lin Wen."
The woman looked at Lin Mo from head to toe.
Finally, a woman's voice came with a scornful laugh: "Oh, what are you planning? You're targeting my son. Your second son, everyone in the village knows there's something wrong with his brain."
Lin Mo's face suddenly turned dark, and his eyes were cold and sharp. The woman was frightened and took two steps back. The aggressive expression on her face just now suddenly became much more restrained.
Lin Mo threw the gift he brought on the table and said in a firm tone, "I'm not here to ask your son to marry my second brother, I'm here to discuss their marriage with you.
Your son Tang Jie knelt down and begged me to agree, and I agreed. So, I am here to talk to you on behalf of my elders."
The woman looked at the gifts on the table, which included candies, biscuits and fruits. They were all of top quality and not cheap.
"My Ajie insists on marrying your second son. As a mother, how can I do such a thing as to break them up? But my Ajie hasn't mentioned this to me yet."
The woman knew she would be in the wrong if she confronted him head-on, so she stopped being sarcastic in her words. She was probably intimidated by Lin Mo's gaze.
Lin Mo took the initiative, pulled over a bench, sat down arrogantly, crossed his legs, and looked like a sullen god, which frightened Widow Tang so much that she didn't dare to say a word.
"Let's be frank and I won't beat around the bush with you.
First, I agree that your son can marry my second brother. Second, I don't agree that my second brother can come to your house. I want Tang Jie to come to your house!
Third, after Tang Jie comes to your house, he will still take care of you in your old age and see you to the end of your life. Our Lin family will also contribute to the care that is needed.
I can't guarantee that you will be rich and powerful in the future, but as long as I, Lin Mo, am still alive, I will ensure that you, an orphan and a widow, will have enough food and clothing and will not be bullied."
Lin Mo said this expressionlessly, his tone was cold, giving people a strong sense of oppression.
After hearing this, Widow Tang was stunned for a long time, with a look of timidity in her eyes, and she didn't even dare to look directly at Lin Mo.
After a while, Lin Mo's cold voice sounded again.
"If you don't say anything, I'll take it as your consent."
Widow Tang then timidly whispered, "This is no different from giving your son away to someone else for nothing. Besides, we don't even have the betrothal gifts."
Lin Mo continued, "Of course it's different. Since Tang Jie is coming to our house, I will naturally not treat him or his family unfairly. Besides, we are from the same village, so it will be easier for me to take care of him if anything happens in the future."
You can choose any betrothal gift you want, but our family will give double the betrothal gift and dowry. You don't need to worry about the wedding preparation expenses, I will arrange everything.
It will be good if you all come together by then."
At this point, Widow Tang had nothing to say. Lin Mo had already considered everything she was worried about.
As the saying goes, raising children is a way to prepare for old age. Isn't it just the fear that when you're old, there will be no one to take care of you, no one to take care of you after you die, and no one to burn incense for your annual memorial? Lin Mo had already said that he would take care of you together. Besides, they were in the same village, and it only took a cup of tea to walk there. What was there to worry about?
She also knew the character of her own son, and he would definitely not forget his mother after getting married.
She reluctantly agreed, "It's not that this marriage is impossible, but as a mother, I still want to hear my son tell me in person. If Jiewazi agrees to come home, then I won't stop him."
As a mother, I should be happy when my son gets married. He chose his own wife, so as long as he doesn't regret it, that's all that matters."
After hearing this, Lin Mo's expression changed 180 degrees. His previous cold expression disappeared and he became much more amiable.
He said respectfully, "Thank you Aunt Tang for your help. Lin Mo would like to express his gratitude here."
Widow Tang looked extremely embarrassed at this moment, not knowing whether to cry or laugh. Lin Mo performed a very emotional "face-changing" act in front of her.
It's so lifelike, even better than a magic trick. But it's a little scary.
Widow Tang nodded stiffly, not daring to say a word. Lin Mo opened the door and left alone.
Watching Lin Mo's back as he walked away, Widow Tang collapsed to the ground, her legs weak, and she kept patting her chest and breathing heavily.
As soon as Lin Mo returned to his home, he saw a group of people gathered at the door, all looking at him with strange expressions, and some were pointing at him.
Lin Mo sensitively realized that something had happened and hurried back into the house.
As soon as I entered the door, Lin Sheng and others came to greet me anxiously.
"Amo, you're back." Lin Sheng looked at Lin Mo with a worried look on his face, and then his expression seemed as if there was something difficult to say.
Lin Mo asked in confusion, "What happened? Why are there so many villagers standing outside?"
Seeing that Lin Sheng was too embarrassed to speak, Lin Mo continued to ask: "By the way, brother, where is Mu Mu? Why can't I see Mu Mu?"
Lin Wu, who was standing by, was so anxious that he walked past Lin Sheng and came to Lin Mo.
He said anxiously, "Third brother, do you know what the villagers have been saying since you left? They heard from somewhere that you went to have sex with an old widow."
Lin Wu became more and more angry as he spoke: "He also said that you looked down on Mu Ge'er in your heart, so you wanted to cheat before the wedding. He said that even if you married Mu Ge'er in the future, it wouldn't last long and you would definitely have to take a concubine!"
Lin Wu was so angry that he clenched his fists and prepared to go out and fight those troublemakers.
Lin Mo quickly grabbed Lin Wu's arm and asked hurriedly, "Where's Mu Mu?"
Lin Wu looked back at the locked door and his momentum faded a bit.
"Mu Mu locked himself in the room and ignored anyone who knocked on the door."
Oh no! Lin Mo's heart tightened, fearing that Su Mu would misunderstand and take the rumors seriously.
He ran straight to Su Mu's door, but when he was halfway there, an uninvited guest arrived.
The Su family members also came to watch the fun. The voices were heard before Aunt Su arrived.
"Oh, the thief is back. It's really lively here at the Lin family. Unlike our family, everyone has been kidnapped and it happened all of a sudden."
When Aunt Su said this, she didn't think about being polite in her words, but just kept suppressing her words and speaking in a sarcastic and mean way.
Lin Mo turned around and glared at the Su family members with a sharp gaze.
He replied sharply, "Whoever saw me cheating, whoever saw it, words are not enough, before you speak, you need evidence."
Aunt Su was still unconvinced: "Who said no one saw it? My husband saw you enter the widow's room and close the door with his own eyes. Who would believe you if you weren't doing something sneaky?"
The Su family looked very proud.
"That's right, you're cheating and you still refuse to admit it. What a hypocritical person."
Lin Mo clenched his fists, suppressing his anger. "I respect you as my elder, so I won't bother with you. But you've brought your entire family to my house to gossip about me. Aren't you afraid of being punished by the gods if you do too much evil?"
