"Who knows? Those fools in the Lin family might just leave someone standing outside the mansion for some trivial matter." Thinking of this, Consort Lan couldn't help but think that if that were the case, Consort Lin must be furious right now.
Side Hall of Yongshou Palace
"What did you say?" Lin Changzai asked, his hand trembling as he pointed at his good-for-nothing younger brother.
She couldn't believe that this cooked duck could fly away.
Without the Li family's support, how will she climb the ranks in the palace?
"Elder sister, it's that Li woman who's so fickle, she actually ran off with the Prince of An's son," Lin Jitong said with a displeased expression.
At that moment, he did not feel that he had done anything wrong.
"Father, Mother, my brother is confused. Why do you let him be so foolish? If Zhou Yutang really wants to enter the Lin family, what difference would it make if we waited a few more days?" Lin Changyi thought that all of this was because Lin Yutang ruined her plans, and she hated Zhou Yutang so much.
How eager they are to see someone!
"Lanzhi, don't be angry. Be careful not to hurt the fetus. We never expected that this little merchant's daughter would have such a temper." Zhou Shi carefully persuaded her daughter while scolding Li Zhiwei.
In her opinion, it was all Li Zhiwei's fault. If she had just waited obediently outside the Lin family, wouldn't it have been better?
Why did things have to turn out this way?
"A mere merchant's daughter? How many mere merchant's daughters can be as rich as a country? So temperamental? You made people wait outside the mansion for two whole hours!" At this moment, Lin Changzai didn't know whether to be angry at herself for having such a stupid family member, or angry at Li Zhiwei for not knowing what was good for her.
Although she felt that her family shouldn't leave Li Zhiwei hanging, she also felt that Li Zhiwei should wait outside the Marquis of Ru'an's mansion for her younger brother to marry her.
Instead of leaving with other people.
"Oh dear, it's just two hours. Mother is just worried that she might not be able to control her temper since she comes from a merchant family. That's why I'm trying to temper her so that she can be of use to us in the future," Zhou Shi quickly said, finding a reason.
She felt a little guilty, after all, she hadn't taken Li Zhiwei seriously at the time.
What kind of waves could a merchant's daughter, who had no relatives or friends in the capital, possibly make?
Unexpectedly, the merchant's daughter didn't make any waves; instead, she was taken away by someone else, pot and all.
“What can a five-year-old child like the Prince of An do by kidnapping someone? Why didn’t you go to Prince An to get the person back afterward?” Consort Lin said to Lin Qihua and Lin Jitong with dissatisfaction.
In her view, what the Marquis of Ru'an's family had done before was not a big problem at all.
Since Li Zhiwei was already engaged to her younger brother, the formalities of marriage and betrothal must have been followed. Otherwise, the Li family would not have given half of their assets as a dowry for Li Zhiwei's marriage into the capital.
The Prince An's mansion couldn't just snatch someone away like that, especially since the one who snatched them was a five-year-old child who hadn't even grown any hair yet, so there was nothing he could do.
"We went there, but the Prince An's mansion refused to release us at all." Lin Qihua felt very dissatisfied when he thought of this, feeling that the Prince An's mansion was too arrogant.
The Emperor should punish the Prince of An's family for their crimes.
"Who did you see at the Prince An's residence?" Consort Lin frowned. She didn't think that Li Zhiwei would become the Princess Consort of Prince An just because she was there. After all, who in the capital didn't know what kind of person Prince An was?
He was a man who was indifferent to women. In the capital, there were all kinds of noble ladies, but Prince An didn't take a fancy to any of them.
How could he possibly fall for a mere merchant's daughter?
Prince An's son is definitely more fun.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have kept her here. It's possible that that bitch Li Zhiwei tricked the Prince of An into doing this, just to get revenge for the Marquis of Ru'an leaving her outside the mansion.
"I only saw the Prince of An's heir and the steward of the Prince of An's residence," Lin Qihua said with dissatisfaction.
"Didn't you go to the manor to visit the old princess again?" Consort Lin glared at her again, feeling that her father was really getting more and more out of touch with reality. What could a five-year-old child possibly do?
Shouldn't this matter be handled by the officials in the household?
