The abandoned wife married into a wealthy family, and the scumbag father wailed every night
Chapter 144 Luo Zhehai's Worries
Lin Ruolan still persisted and kept pulling Lin Zhixue to beg him.
What she said made Lin Zhixue a little shaken. Gu Yingxue was weak in character and always listened to him.
She was determined not to be a concubine because she was angry that he brought Luo Jiaojiao back. He believed that as long as he coaxed her, Gu Yingxue would still listen to him.
After all, Gu Yingxue has loved to follow me since she was a child, and has never disobeyed me after marrying me.
Lin Zhixue felt that Gu Yingxue must still have feelings for him, otherwise why would she have worked so hard to raise their child alone.
If she had no feelings for him, she would have sold the two children for money or aborted them before they were born. Either option would be much better than her raising two children alone.
If her younger sister went to the Yongchang Marquis' Mansion, Gu Yingxue would think of herself and take better care of her younger sister. Maybe her younger sister could really replace her.
Xie Tingzhou didn't know the good of women before, but now that he has tasted the sweetness of women, he will definitely not spend his whole life with only one woman.
Men always want to try new things. If his sister really marries into the Xie family and gives birth to a son while she is still young, it is not impossible for her to replace Gu Yingxue.
After all, she is old and will definitely not be able to have children. In the future, all the children in the Yongchang Marquisate will belong to her younger sister’s sons!
People can't just look at the present, they need to think about the long term. He should endure for a few years, maybe he will be able to turn the tide in the future!
Lin Zhixue was a little hesitant. Because of the winter supply issue, he had already lost the favor of the civil and military officials in the court. It seemed that it would be useless to make up for it. Why not take a risky move?
But Lin Zhixue was a little worried about how to meet Gu Yingxue.
Luo Jiaojiao looked at Lin Ruolan with some contempt. She thought that her sister-in-law would be killed by her stupidity sooner or later. She even wanted to marry Xie Tingzhou as a concubine and wanted Gu Yingxue to treat her well.
Humph, which woman would like her husband’s concubine!
If she had known that idiot Gu Yingxue, she would have killed her the next day!
Anyway, the mistress can deal with the concubine at will. The concubine is just a slave to the mistress!
Luo Jiaojiao's face suddenly turned fierce. If she hadn't spared the life of that bitch Gu Yingxue, she wouldn't have been as rich and powerful as she is today!
If she is sensible, she will thank me for not killing her when she sees me in the future!
Luo Jiaojiao was regretting so much at this moment. If she had known that Gu Yingxue would have such a fate today, she really should not have spared her life!
"Husband, I plan to take Jin'er back to her parents' home later."
Luo Jiaojiao was really impatient to deal with Lin Ruolan, so she proposed to go back to the Marquis' Mansion.
"Well, Jiaojiao, there is nothing important going on at home these days, so you can just stay in the mansion for a few more days."
Lin Zhixue was pondering the pros and cons of Lin Ruolan becoming Xie Tingzhou's concubine when he was interrupted by Luo Jiaojiao, and he became a little impatient.
But when he heard her ask to go back to the Marquis' Mansion for a few days, and thought of his brother-in-law's coldness towards him recently, he decided to send Luo Jiaojiao back to the Prince's Mansion to see what was going on.
He ordered Lin Ruolan to stay quiet at home until he had made his plans, and then he prepared to go to the Marquis' Mansion with Luo Jiaojiao.
Seeing that Lin Zhixue's attitude was not as firm as before and showed signs of softening, Lin Ruolan stopped making trouble.
Anyway, she must become Xie Tingzhou's woman in this life, even if she becomes a concubine it doesn't matter!
She knew that a concubine was actually a slave and could be beaten or killed by her mistress at will.
But she is different. Her brother is an official appointed by the court, and her sister-in-law is the legitimate daughter of a marquis. How dare she, Gu Yingxue, touch her!
Old Mrs. Lin looked at her son and daughter-in-law who left together and seemed to be hesitant to speak. The meals at home had been too bland recently and she was craving for meat.
But she forgot to tell him about her daughter because she was so worried. Looking at the two people walking further and further away, Old Lady Lin spitted fiercely on the ground:
"You ungrateful bitch, you don't even know how to give more money to the kitchen. The food has been getting more and more bland lately!"
……
"Father, Xie Tingzhou is clearly out to show us how powerful he is. Recently, our people in the Ministry of Revenue, Ministry of Personnel, Ministry of Rites, Ministry of War, and Ministry of Justice have started to make mistakes and get removed one after another. Xie Tingzhou must be the one behind this. No one except the Xie family can find out so accurately that this is our man."
Luo Zhehai said to Old Marquis Luo with some headache.
"What on earth is Xie Tingzhou trying to do? Hasn't our attitude towards Jiaojiao been clear enough during this period? In order not to offend the Xie family, I even gave up my most beloved daughter! He still won't give in. This is simply too much!"
Old Marquis Luo was trembling slightly, and seemed to be very angry, but in fact he was more afraid. He remembered the tragic situation of the family who framed Xie Tingzhou's father a few years ago!
Xie Tingzhou is a ruthless person who does not play by the rules. He has the cunning of a civil servant and the ruthlessness of a military general.
Under his leadership over the years, the Xie family was like an indestructible fortress. Even the emperor was wary of the Xie family and never dared to have a head-on conflict with them.
The Xie family has been defending the territory for generations. They not only have a high status among military officers, but also have a high reputation among civil officials.
He really doesn't want to fight against such a person!
If they were to go against the Xie family, their Yangcheng Marquis Mansion would probably be silent for decades, which is a situation he absolutely does not want to see!
Just as the father and son were discussing the current situation facing the Yangcheng Marquis's Mansion and how to break it, the housekeeper came to report:
"Old Marquis, Marquis, the young lady and her husband are here."
The butler was a little nervous because the young lady had always been pampered over the years.
Recently, for some unknown reason, the old marquis suddenly ordered that the young lady was not allowed to enter the Yangcheng Marquis Mansion. He just wanted to stop her, but the young lady flew into a rage. He was afraid that something might go wrong, so he hurried to report it.
"Jiaojiao is such a fool. Why did she come back? Isn't she making a scene at the door making a fool of our Yangcheng Marquis Mansion? It's been so long, doesn't she understand what we mean?"
Luo Zhehai was a little angry. He had always been dissatisfied with his parents doting on his sister too much, but he thought that she was just a girl and in the end it would just be a matter of dowry.
Therefore, he did not interfere too much. Who would have thought that she would bring so much trouble to the Marquis' Mansion!
"Zhehai, let your sister in. Xie Tingzhou has not given in to our surrender and is still unyielding. There are no secrets between noble families. If we continue to treat your sister coldly, we will only make a fool of ourselves. Let her in first and then we can reconsider the plan."
After listening to this, Lord Luo pondered for a moment, but felt that letting Luo Jiaojiao keep making trouble at the door was not a good idea.
In addition, he did have some father-daughter feelings for her, so he spoke to Luo Zhehai.
Luo Zhehai thought for a while, his father was right, they had repeatedly made it clear to Xie Tingzhou, both explicitly and implicitly, that their mansion had drawn a clear line between itself and Luo Jiaojiao and Lin Zhixue, but Xie Tingzhou had no intention of showing any mercy.
There are already some familiar noble families watching him make fun of him openly or secretly. If Xie Tingzhou accepted his surrender, he would not mind others watching him make fun of him.
After all, between being laughed at by others and preserving one's own foundation, the latter is much more important. No matter how important face is, it is not as important as the real power in one's hands.
But the key point is that Xie Tingzhou is so ungrateful!
He has almost eliminated half of the secret agents of the Yangcheng Marquisate in the officialdom!
They can't continue to be soft, if they continue to be soft, Xie Tingzhou will eat them until not even a bone is left!
