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

Lin Yulan said, "I am honest and upright, so why should I be afraid of being embarrassed? The Marquis is right. If this is the case, we might as well go to court. The damage to the gift from the Queen Mother is no small matter. I think it is necessary to go to court to get a clear understanding."

Shao Xun: "Madam's meaning is Master's meaning. Shao Chu, go to Shuntian Prefecture Yamen to report the case and ask the prefect to send someone quickly."

"Yes, Lord Marquis."

"No! No! It was my sister-in-law who broke it, it was my sister-in-law!"

Meng Zifang was completely panicked and sold out Lin Yuwei without hesitation, "Sister-in-law is just jealous, she did it on purpose."

"Meng Zifang!"

Lin Yuwei was extremely angry.

Meng Zifang raised her head and said, "My sister-in-law promised me a benefit so that I could lie. Here, this is the jade pendant she gave me."

Meng Zifang took out an egg-sized violet jade pendant from her bosom. It was carved into the shape of a treasure gourd. Both Lin Daohui and Gu recognized it. It was indeed Lin Yuwei's thing.

Gu cursed the girl in anger, while Lin Daohui was shocked and angry: the younger daughter actually lied and framed her sister!

"Rebellious girl! I never thought you could be so mean-spirited and refuse to admit it!"

Lin Yuwei simply gave up and said, "Yes, I did it, Lin Yulan, are you satisfied?"

She was still somewhat timid, and she weakly added, "I didn't expect to fail... I didn't dare to admit it because I was afraid of being punished. I thought that my sister was the Marquis' wife anyway, and the Marquis would not blame his wife no matter what, right? That's why I wanted my sister to bear the consequences. Sister, we are sisters after all, do you have to be picky with me?"

Gu also hurriedly said with a smile: "Lan girl, since your sister has admitted it, let's forget about it! As a sister, you have married so well, and you are living in harmony with the Marquis and his wife. You are living a happy life. So you should be more generous and don't bother with your sister. After all, she didn't mean it."

Gu was reminding Lin Yulan that this marriage was given to her by Lin Yuwei and she wanted her to repay the favor.

Lin Daohui felt embarrassed. He had wronged his eldest daughter before, so he was too embarrassed to speak now. However, he looked at Lin Yulan pleadingly.

Obviously, they all wanted to make a big deal out of a small matter. Even if it was Lin Yuwei's fault, she said she didn't mean it, so it wasn't intentional. In the end, she, Lin Yulan, still had to bear the consequences.

Lin Yulan said, "How can I bear to make things difficult for my father and mother? But this is a gift from the late Queen Mother, it is of great importance, and it is not up to me to decide what to do with it. Lord Marquis, what do you think?"

Shao Xun sneered: "Are you Lin family going too far? You want to expose it just because it was not intentional?"

Lin Daohui was anxious. "No, no, my daughter is naughty and deserves to be punished. Please let the Marquis know. We will also find the best craftsman to repair this hairpin and make sure it is in good condition before sending it back to the Marquis."

"That's not necessary. Can you find a better craftsman than me?" Shao Xun didn't give his father-in-law any face. "Since father-in-law also thinks that Madam Meng should be punished, then punish her."

Lin Daohui was stunned and subconsciously looked at Lin Yulan.

Gu directly pressed Lin Yulan: "Girl Lan, this matter is related to you after all. Tell me, how should I punish your sister to satisfy you?"

"Mother is wrong. The Marquis has already spoken, so I will listen to him. As for how to punish my sister, it is up to my father and mother as the elders to decide. Please don't make it difficult for me, mother."

Gu was furious. How dare she!

Shao Xun smiled and glanced at Lin Yulan, "Madam is well-educated and sensible, what you said is very right."

No matter how angry Gu was, she was unwilling to let her own daughter suffer any more, so she forced a smile and said, "In that case, how about asking your sister to apologize?"

Shao Xun and Lin Yulan remained silent.

Lin Daohui: "This hairpin needs to be repaired, and it will cost money. In addition to asking Yuwei to apologize, I will also have to compensate the Marquis with three hundred taels of silver."

Shao Xun and Lin Yulan said nothing.

Gu: "Yuwei kneels down and apologizes, okay? Silver...if three hundred taels is not enough, then four hundred taels."

Shao Xun and Lin Yulan remained silent.

Lin Yuwei couldn't help it, she was angry, hateful and jealous: "Why do you want me to kneel down and apologize! Don't you have any responsibility? If you care, you will take good care of this hairpin. Even if I broke it accidentally, it is not unrelated to you. Lord, this shows that you don't take your kindness seriously at all. Even if you want to punish me, you can't punish me too!"

Lin Yulan could guess why she was broken down. What happened in her previous life was a hurdle that she couldn't get over. She was unwilling to accept that Shao Xun was on her side.

"Don't worry about the affairs between us. Isn't it not good for you to sow discord in front of us? If it gets out, people will say that you are a gossip-monger and always love to stir up trouble. This is not a good reputation!"

Gu shouted angrily: “Shut up!”

Shao Xun: "Madam is absolutely right."

Lin Daohui: “…”

Lin Yuwei glared at Shao Xun angrily. The overwhelming resentment hit her, making her lose her breath instantly and her chest heaving violently. She hated him so much!

Why! Why!

What kind of magic potion did that bitch Lin Yulan give Shao Xun? He actually protected her so much.

Meng Mingchi's eyes became darker, and a hint of coldness flashed across them. His wife was jealous of the Marquis of Wuwei's kindness to her sister, but the couple lived in harmony, so what did it have to do with her?

Shao Xun had already noticed Lin Yuwei's strange stare and was very angry. Is this Lin family's daughter a lunatic? What's wrong with her? Why is she staring at him as if he owes her something or feels sorry for her?

Fortunately, it wasn't her that I married.

He was never polite to people he disliked, and said to Lin Daohui with a half-smile: "Father-in-law, doesn't Madam Meng need to be taught a lesson for her mouth?"

Lin Daohui was stunned, and gritted his teeth: "The Marquis is right, the child was spoiled by her mother, and she should be taught a lesson. Come, take the second young lady away and slap her in the face, twenty slaps in the face!"

"master!"

"father!"

Shao Xun: "My father-in-law is wise."

Lin Daohui secretly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Shao Xun was satisfied, "Why don't you quickly pull the second young lady away."

Breaking the things bestowed by the late Empress Dowager can be a big deal or a small one, it depends on whether the Marquis will pursue the matter or not, at least giving her twenty slaps in the face to teach her a lesson.

Lin Yuwei was extremely angry: "Lin Yulan! You——"

"Shut up!" Lin Daohui shouted at her, "Stop her mouth and drag her away."

"Yes."

The old maid immediately stuffed a handkerchief into Lin Yuwei's mouth, and soon she was pulled down by two strong maids, one on each side, and then covered her mouth and slapped in the yard.

The crisp sound of slapping and Lin Yuwei's groan of pain entered the hall. Meng Zifang hung her head and twisted her handkerchief in fear and guilt, while Meng Mingchi also lowered his eyes and said nothing. Gu's face turned pale, and she glared at Lin Yulan fiercely with a look that seemed to be poisoned.

Lin Daohui felt distressed and had a headache, and sighed secretly: He had never known that the sisters were so at odds with each other before...

Seeing that the second son-in-law did not plead for his daughter, he felt heartbroken again.
