Red Mansion Daiyu, the Rise of the Lin Family

"Yes, at the clan leader's family dinner, I asked my aunt to help me plot against you. I am willing to be your concubine."

"But you should also look at me. I have been in the Lin Mansion for ten years, and you have never looked at me once."

"You tell me who I can spare. I won't spare any of you. I will make sure you have no children or grandchildren, and your wife and children will be separated from you."

"Now the entire Lin family knows that I'm pregnant, and you've dealt with me, haha! ... Haha, Jia Min, can you still keep your noble lady's skin?"

The cry of "Jia Min" was hysterical.

"Besides the appearance of a noble lady, what else do you have? In terms of talent and beauty, how can I not compare with you?"

Hearing her shout this, Lin Ruhai glanced at the hall.

Jia Min drank her tea slowly, as if all this had nothing to do with her.

Her face was ashen, and sadness filled her body. She couldn't hear what the woman said.

Her mind was filled with her own smugness before her wedding.

"Sister-in-law! Doesn't the material of my wedding dress look good? Mother helped me choose it from her small storehouse."

"My mother said that I am a crab. I look majestic and powerful, but inside I am full of crab roe."

"I don't want to see concubines, and I don't want them to pay their respects."

"Arguing and fighting with a concubine is a disgrace to our family. I, Jia Min, will never put myself in such a bad situation."

"Yes! I am not in any trouble, but I have hurt my own children. Curse! Am I cursed?"

She walked towards the back hall like a lost soul.

The tea bowl clanged and fell to the ground, leaving tea stains all over the floor.

When Lin Ruhai saw Jia Min leave in a daze, he felt as if a piece of his heart was dug out and his fingers lost all feeling.

[Empty, painful]

"Someone! Block her mouth, drag her out, and call the clan leader's wife."

"Madame Rong, kill and sell all the people involved. Don't alarm the Madam."

Madam Rong agreed and prepared to leave, but turned her head and looked worriedly in the direction where Jia Min left.

He could not help but walk to Lin Ruhai and give him a few words of advice, "Master, don't blame me for being nosy. Go and persuade the Madam. Although she is in her thirties, she still has the mind of a young girl."

"She has been trapped in a dream. A dream of a talented man and a beautiful woman."

"She has no room for sand in her heart."

Lin Ruhai clenched his fist tightly, feeling the pain in his palm, "I know, I will tell her that this is not a dream."

"We are the talented man and the beautiful woman."

"I will reassure her. I will get rid of all these concubines."

Upon hearing the news, the clan leader's wife and the clan leader hurried over.

Seeing his niece in such a miserable state, he huddled in the corner of Lin Ruhai's study and shivered.

The clan leader's wife yelled and rushed over. "What's going on? Lin Ruhai, what do you mean? My Wen family is also a family of scholars, why are you torturing my daughter like this?"

"Do you think there is no one in my Wen family?"

Lin Ruhai's eyes were like knives, shooting towards the clan leader's wife.

"Madame Rong, show them the things."

What is this? The clan leader took the stack of papers handed over by Rong Mama in surprise.

After flipping through a few pages, his face changed drastically and he felt extremely ashamed.

He threw a few pieces of paper in Mrs. Wen's face angrily, "Ridiculous! Absurd, your good daughter raised in the Wen family."

"Ru Hai, you are now the Lin family's Qilin son and the only hope for revival. Do you really want our Lin family to fall into ruin?"

"Take your good niece back home! I am so ashamed."

The clan leader's wife was indifferent to the insults and carefully read the confession on paper.

After reading it, she showed disappointment in her eyes. But it was about the dignity of her family.

Having been the clan leader's wife for many years, it was not time for her to admit defeat.

She said to Lin Ruhai slowly, "These few pieces of paper alone are not enough to convict me of a crime. I need to ask in person."

"No matter how poor my Wen family is, we still have a few close friends in Suzhou."

He walked to the piled-up Madam Wen, bent down and spoke in a low voice, "Wen Qiang, is what is written on this paper true?"

"The paper says that you used the pretense of pregnancy to deceive your own brother, and made him a knife in your hand to murder the eldest son of the Lin family."

"Wen Qiang, Auntie doesn't believe me. You should be more careful in what you say and do. It's not a pity for you to die, but your brother still has a future."

"If you return to the Wen family like this, do you think your father will let you live?"

"What should I do? You are a smart child, so you don't need your aunt to teach you, right?"

"What else is there for you to live except to bring shame to the Wen family?"

After hearing this, Wen Qiang shuddered and thought of her strict father.

Ever since she lowered her status and entered the Lin Mansion as a concubine, her father had already kicked her out of the house.

She didn't expect that the ray of light she chased with her life would eventually turn into a dagger that killed her.

Her eyes were filled with enthusiasm. "Aunt, you have loved me the most since I was a child. Do you know that I have been in the mansion for ten years and I am still a virgin."

"Aunt, do you think it's worth it for me to die like this? Why did you help me in the first place?"

"Are you trying to help a loser? She, Jia Min, locked up her concubine and ignored her."

"Aunt, I have to stand out. I can't be a withered skeleton in the backyard."

"If only Jia Min and her sickly son died, wouldn't the Lin Mansion and her huge dowry belong to the Wen family?"

"Aunt, my plan was perfect, how come it was leaked?"

"I know my own brother well, and if I hadn't used my pregnancy as an excuse to promise him a huge benefit, would he have gotten involved in this mess?"

"Aunt, whose order am I following? Do you think I can die?"

"Aunt, please give me a chance to live. Only when I am alive can I be useful."

"You don't have a daughter, and you said you would treat me as your daughter. How could a mother let her own daughter die?"

At this point, Madam Wen's eyes turned red, and she suddenly laughed out loud.

"Aunt, don't worry, I won't commit suicide. The Lin family wants a future, and the Wen family also wants a future. Killing a concubine from a good family will dirty my hands, right?"

The clan leader's wife secretly regretted, "This is teaching a wolf!"

Maybe you have to save her life.

Thinking of this, the clan leader’s wife straightened up and walked in front of Lin Ruhai.

"Ruhai, Wen Qiang has been in your Lin Mansion for ten years, but she is still a virgin. This is not easy to explain. You don't want Madam Jia to be known as jealous, do you?"

"A daughter of a duke who is so careful about her reputation must have impeccable conduct. Give Wen Qiang a letter of release."

"From now on, you two will have nothing to do with each other. What do you think?"

The head of the Lin family and his wife looked at Lin Ruhai together.

Seeing that Lin Ruhai was still hesitating, the clan leader pulled him aside and said, "Ruhai, you are not planning to kill her, are you? A woman can't do anything wrong."

"And I heard that His Majesty might use old officials. The old man of the Wen family is still alive?"

After hearing this, Lin Ruhai seemed to have made up his mind and put forward two conditions to the patriarch.

"You can give me the letter to release me, but the reason must be clearly stated. It is because I am plotting against my mistress and my legitimate son."

"On that confession, the clan leader, his wife, and brother Wen Qiang signed and sealed it as evidence."

After hearing these two conditions, the clan leader's wife's eyes were filled with anger. This was slamming the Wen family's face into the mud.

[Lin Ruhai! You are really going too far! ]

[Wen Qiang, why don't you commit suicide? ]

She looked at the gloomy face of the clan leader and remembered that she was still a woman of the Lin family after all.

Through the layers of houses, I seemed to see Jia Min's smug face.

Whatever! People are different after all.

"I sign!"

Call Wenbo!
