Chapter 123 The Daughter Was Taken Away
Mrs. Zheng had a smooth life. She was the youngest and most favored daughter in the family since childhood. After she got married, she had her natal family as a support and her husband treated her very well.
So until now, she still has the temperament of a little girl and does things without considering the consequences.
Seeing his granddaughter like this, he couldn't stand Wei Xiaoran and Lin Qian even more.
Furious, Madam Zheng said without hesitation, "This daughter of the Lin family has ruined the family tradition. She shows up in public and doesn't look like a lady from a noble family at all. Prime Minister Wei, marry a virtuous woman. Don't make a mistake in choosing a wife."
Lin Qian looked at Madam Zheng, without saying a word, just staring at her calmly.
Wei Xiaoran's eyes turned completely cold, and the officials' children around him all took two steps back unconsciously.
Normally, Wei Xiaoran always had a gentle smile on his face, which made these people feel scared. But now, his face was tense, and there seemed to be ice around him, making everyone shiver.
"What this old lady said is really interesting. You said my sister is not virtuous, then who is virtuous? Who is suitable to be Brother Xiaoran's wife? Is it the one next to you?" The speaker was Lin Shuo.
The airs that Zheng Wanrou managed to maintain as a daughter of a wealthy family were almost shattered by Lin Shuo.
Everyone's eyes were looking at her blatantly at this moment, making Zheng Wanrou feel as if she was stripped naked.
An extremely humiliating feeling crept up her cheeks, and she gritted her teeth to avoid crying out loud.
Madam Zheng shouted, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Wei Xiaoran blocked Lin Shuo behind him and said, "Madam Zheng, please be careful with your words. I have been weak and sickly since I was young. Later, I almost died due to an acute illness. It was Lin Qian who saved me.
She saved my life, and later continued to take care of me and help me with my medical treatment. That is why I can stand here and achieve what I have today.
From that moment on, I wanted to marry her.
She will be my wife in the future. She can do whatever she wants. If she wants to go out and treat patients, I will go with her.
She can do whatever she wants, and she doesn't need your judgment, understand?"
Did you understand the last sentence? Wei Xiaoran's tone was very gloomy. Old Madam Zheng finally came to her senses. The young man standing in front of her was not her nephew who could teach a lesson at will.
But he is the evil chief minister who has great power in the court.
Suddenly, she didn't dare to speak.
The atmosphere immediately turned cold and no one dared to speak.
At this time, the wife of the Marquis of Anyuan spoke up. She said loudly, "So that's how it is. Prime Minister Wei and Miss Lin are truly destined to be together! They are truly a match made in heaven, don't you agree?"
How could the people around dare to sing a different tune? They all echoed and said yes, yes!
The wife of Anyuan Hou took Lin Qian's hand, patted it, and then said, "When you are about to get married, I will definitely give you a thick dowry to thank you for saving my life."
With the change of topic brought up by the wife of Marquis Anyuan, the atmosphere finally became lively again.
After a while, the eldest princess's granddaughter, Zhou Yaning, finally showed up.
The two protagonists, Zhou Hao and Zhou Yaning, appeared, and the flower viewing banquet began.
Then a group of young boys and girls began to recite poems and compose essays.
In this kind of situation, no one dared to call Wei Xiaoran or Lin Qian, so the two of them found a corner to talk.
Before leaving, Lin Qian saw clearly that Ge Wenyu also went to find Lin Shuo, and the two of them ran to the side to chat.
"What are you looking at?" Wei Xiaoran asked.
Lin Qian looked back at him and said, "I just saw Wen Yu and Shuo Shuo running off to the side to talk. Do you think they're a good match?"
Wei Xiaoran raised his eyebrows, reached out and clasped Lin Qian's waist. Suddenly, the two of them were very close, and ambiguity immediately filled the air around them.
"You still have the mind to worry about others. You've been ignoring me for several days. Have you thought it through?"
Lin Qian was speechless. She pushed him but didn't move away. She said, "Aunt Zhang and you said that in public. How can I not marry you?"
Wei Xiaoran pretended to think for a moment, then rested his forehead against Lin Qian's and said, "It seems, it's impossible."
The strong smell hit Lin Qian's face, and Lin Qian, who had never experienced such a thing in her two lives, blushed all of a sudden.
Suddenly, cheers were heard in the distance, and Lin Qian suddenly remembered that she was outside. She pushed Wei Xiaoran away with all her strength.
"Let me go! It's not good if someone sees us! Let me go!"
Wei Xiaoran also knew that it was not appropriate to behave excessively at this time, so he had to let go of her hand reluctantly, and then whispered something into Lin Qian's ear.
Lin Qian immediately gave him a sidelong glance, shook off his hand and left.
The flower viewing banquet soon ended, and Old Lady Zheng was the first to leave with her granddaughter Zheng Wanrou.
When he returned home, Lin Wu found out that Lin Qian and Wei Xiaoran's marriage had already been decided in front of so many people. He was furious.
"You, why don't you discuss this with me? She is my daughter after all!" Lin Wu said, looking at Zhao Xiu with resentment.
Zhao Xiu was combing her hair. After hearing Lin Wu's words, she threw the comb on the dressing table with a bang.
She said, "Those high-class ladies are really gossipy, even more so than the wives of the village idiots. You don't know that Qianqian was even scolded by Old Madam Zheng."
They said your daughter has brought shame to the family and will never be able to get married.
Sister Zhang immediately came over to support Qianqian, and then Xiaoran came over. He favored Qianqian in front of so many people and said that Qianqian could do whatever she wanted in a while.
After hearing what happened, Lin Wu remained silent.
Zhao Xiu stood up and walked to Lin Wu and said, "Da Wu, Xiao Ran can protect Qian Qian, and now he is the only one who can protect her.
We think it’s okay for Qianqian to go out to see a doctor, but these ancient people are different. However, Xiaoran can shut them up.”
Lin Wu actually knew in his heart that Wei Xiaoran was the most suitable one for Lin Qian, but he just felt unhappy. He felt unhappy whenever he saw Wei Xiaoran.
"I know." Lin Wu said sullenly, then pulled the quilt over his head in a huff, closed his eyes and went to sleep.
Zhao Xiu shook her head with amusement, washed up, and fell asleep next to Lin Wu.
But as soon as Lin Wu closed his eyes, he began to dream.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the newborn Lin Qian, who was put into his arms by the doctor.
When Lin Qian was born, she weighed over seven kilograms and was white and plump. When Lin Wu held her in his arms, he felt like his heart was melting.
Watching her grow up day by day, learning to roll over, sit, crawl, walk, and call daddy, Lin Wu felt that Lin Qian was the best daughter in the world.
Unconsciously, Lin Wu laughed in his sleep and was very happy.
But before he could be happy for a while, his chubby, white and best daughter in the world was taken away by Wei Xiaoran.
Lin Wu yelled at him to let him go, but Wei Xiaoran ran so fast that he couldn't catch up.
Lin Wu watched his daughter being taken away. He was stunned for a long time, then burst into tears and shouted Zhao Xiu's name in his dream, asking her to save his daughter.
Then Lin Wu felt a pain in his face and opened his eyes.
Zhao Xiu said, "What kind of nightmare did you have? You were screaming and shrieking, but you wouldn't wake up no matter how hard I tried!"
"Wife! My daughter was taken away by that brat Wei Xiaoran! Go after him!"
