My sister must marry someone else? Why are you crying when I marry the King of War?

Old Madam Shao did not insist on ordering Lin Yulan to kneel down in the ancestral hall and be confined to her room. She scolded her and sent her away without any worries. She told her to be confined to Chunhui Garden and not to run around unless necessary.

Lin Yulan had no objection.

She hadn't planned to go out for a walk, after all, there wasn't much to go around.

Shao Xun was not in the capital, and the Wuwei Marquis Mansion had become popular again and attracted everyone's attention. She always felt uneasy and had a feeling that she was being watched.

Moreover, although the Deng family has collapsed, the prince is still there. How could he not hate the Wuwei Marquisate and himself?

It’s safer to stay in the mansion.

Fu was very unwilling and could not help but complain a few words in front of Old Madam Shao, tactfully expressing her dissatisfaction with Old Madam Shao for not severely punishing Lin Yulan.

How could Mrs. Shao have the patience to explain to her daughter-in-law? Instead, she scolded her impatiently. Mrs. Fu was so angry that she dared not do anything, so she had to swallow her anger and leave.

Old Madam Shao was also very angry. She was not angry at Fu, but at Shao Xun.

When the eldest grandson came to pay his respects and say goodbye yesterday, he was not polite at all. He threatened her in front of her in a shameless and unruly manner.

What about waiting for him to come back before making a decision, what about him having to figure out the whole story before taking responsibility, what about his wife's face being his face, and if anyone acts recklessly, intentionally humiliates, or doesn't save face for his wife, it's like slapping him in the face, and he will definitely retaliate double...

How could Mrs. Shao not know who these words were directed at? She was so angry that her face changed, her hands trembled uncontrollably, and even her breathing became unstable. However, Shao Xun, that cold-faced and cold-hearted man, just looked at her with a half-smile and cold eyes, not caring at all whether she would be angry to death on the spot because of his words.

At that moment, Mrs. Shao felt a chill in her heart. She had to admit that she could not threaten Shao Xun in every aspect.

She seized upon Lin Yulan's weakness and tried to punish her harshly, but after Shao Xun said a word, she had to grit her teeth and bear it.

She was not afraid of what Shao Xun would do to her. No matter how lawless Shao Xun was, he would never dare to do anything to her, his grandmother.

However, he may not be lenient towards the second brother and his family...

I thought it was a good thing that he valued Lin as his wife, because in this way I could have grasped his weakness. However, I didn't know that I also had a weakness that was being grasped by him.

It's fine when everyone is living in peace, but once the balance is lost, the consequences will be unimaginable.

No matter how good Lin was, she was just a wife. Even if she died, Shao Xun would be sad for a while and it would not affect him to marry another one. Now he is in high spirits, and I am afraid that many powerful families are willing to marry their daughters to him.

But no matter who in the second brother's family does something wrong, I can't accept it.

Old Madam Shao's eyes were grim and she felt a growing sense of crisis.

While Lin Yulan was still under "house arrest", Lin Yuwei came to visit her.

She looked even more haggard than before.

The whole person exudes a gloomy and violent aura.

When he saw Lin Yulan, his sharp eyes were like knives, as if he wanted to pierce her.

Obviously, she was getting worse and worse.

"I went back to visit my mother, and on the way back I suddenly thought of my sister, so I came over to sit and have some tea. Sister, there's no need to be so nervous. Don't worry, I'm not here to borrow money from you today."

Lin Yulan was actually amused by what she said, "Sister, you don't have to say that. Even if you ask me again, I still have nothing. I only have such a small dowry, and my father and mother will never be able to give me any more subsidies. But it's different for you. I'm very happy that you understand me so much."

"Humph!"

Lin Yuwei sneered: "I heard that Lord Shao went out of the capital on business? Sister is not worried at all."

Thinking of the disaster that Shao Xun had encountered in his previous life, Lin Yulan found these words particularly harsh. She thought she had guessed the purpose of Lin Yuwei's visit today.

In both of her lives, she has made no progress and has always been staring at others, unwilling to see them have an easy life, instead of working hard to make her own life better.

"I am confident in the Marquis's abilities, so I don't need to mention it to you, sister."

"Sister, you are thinking too beautifully. As the saying goes, there are always unexpected events——"

"Lin Yuwei," Lin Yulan didn't want to hear such unlucky words. Although she knew that even if Lin Yuwei said it, it would not cause any harm to Shao Xun, she just didn't want to hear it.

Lin Yulan interrupted her with a gloomy face: "Did Duke Rong invite Meng Mingchi to be crowned as the Crown Prince?"

Lin Yuwei was furious: "What did you say!"

"Does the wife of Duke Rong think highly of you? Does she like you? Does she take you with her to teach you? Did she say that she would give you the housekeeper's household goods?"

"Shut up!"

"Have you and your sister-in-law, Xiao Yu, resolved your differences? How are you getting along?"

"Shut up, Lin Yulan, shut up!"

"I don't think Madam Meng is a pushover, is she? And Shao Zhixin, your cousin's wife, she must have felt very aggrieved when she got married by chance. But even if she wanted to take revenge, she couldn't afford to offend anyone else. The only person she could afford to offend was you - did she offend you?"

"That's enough! I told you to shut up!"

Lin Yuwei lost control, stood up and screamed, raising her hand to hit Lin Yulan.

She was so angry! How dare she humiliate her like this! How dare she mention these things in front of her?

None of these things were not her sore spots, and none of them were what she wanted to hear.

Lin Yulan held her wrist with one hand, "What about Meng Mingchi's adoptive parents and step-sister? Have they come to see you recently? Have they made any excessive demands? Or have they pestered you for money, things, or even respectability or a good marriage with Meng Zifang?"

"That's enough, that's enough!"

"Meng Mingchi has two concubines, right? Do they respect you as his principal wife? I heard that one of them is pregnant. Is that true?"

"Lin Yulan! Lin Yulan you——"

"Me what!"

Lin Yulan pushed her away, her eyes cold, "You are the only one allowed to cause trouble for others, but you are not allowed to speak?"

"You - humph, I mean well, I'm not like you! I warn you, if you apologize to me now, I won't bother with you if I'm satisfied. I'll also tell you something. It concerns the life and death of your master. Humph, if you don't believe it, you'll regret it in the future."

Even though she knew she wasn't telling the truth, Lin Yulan's heart still beat uncontrollably twice. She really didn't like this feeling.

"Stop being alarmist here!"

"Hmph, Lin Yulan, I'll give you one last chance. If you miss it, it will be gone. If Marquis Wuwei blames you in the future, you'll have to bear the consequences yourself."
