Favoring the concubine and killing the wife? She divorced the concubine and lived with her concubine

This was the first time Liu Yue had gone out since she had come in with Liu Hu last time. She walked out of the Sun family mourning hall without hesitation.

When she went out, she happened to pass by Lin Rui, who was followed by Lin Yao. The little girl glanced at Liu Yue and continued to gnaw on the candy man on the bamboo stick.

Lin Rui saw that Lin Yao was only focused on eating, "Don't eat anymore, you're here to pay your respects, so be polite."

Lin Yao nodded, wrapped the sugar figure in a piece of oil paper and put it in her arms.

"When you come here, you should change into some commonly used things here. Some ways of dying seem unique and easy to be noticed." Lin Rui squatted down and straightened Lin Yao's clothes to make them look less bulging.

"It's convenient to use a skewer, and it tastes good." Lin Yao licked the syrup hanging from the corner of her mouth and didn't care.

Lin Rui smiled, looking like a doting father. "Weapons are the mark of a murderer. Now is not the time to show them. It's better to hide them. Xiao Qi is also unwilling to listen to advice."

Lin Rui stood up and stretched out his hand for Lin Yao to hold his hand. Lin Yao obediently extended her hand. The father and daughter asked the servant to inform them and entered the Sun family.

Tomorrow is the seventh day since Sun Shaohua's death, and he will be buried. No one has come to the mourning hall, not even to the side. If Lin Rui hadn't come in after asking the servant to inform him, he would have only seen a lonely corpse and extinguished incense.

Even Sun Jiye no longer stayed in the mourning hall every day. After all, his father was not important to him. Now Fang Qingqing loved him, Xiao Lan loved him even more, and the maids and servants took better care of him. He had never lived so comfortably.

When Lin Rui arrived, the mourning hall had been prepared.

"My condolences... Madam Sun." Lin Rui's eyes were filled with sympathy. A man with such a face looked even more handsome when he made an expression. Fang Qingqing couldn't help but look at him twice more, while Xiao Lan nodded in thanks.

"Boss Lin is thoughtful."

Lin Yao went to Sun Jiye and squatted down to look at his face, which showed no trace of sadness. "Jiye, I'm going back now. I'll come to play with you when I have time. Don't be too sad. I have a father and you have a mother. If we become a family in the future, we will have both parents."

Lin Yao's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, and her childish words sounded very interesting. What she said made Xiao Lan stand there in a daze, feeling embarrassed for a moment.

Lin Rui coughed lightly, his face full of embarrassment, "I'm sorry, Madam Sun, the child is ignorant." He turned around and pulled Lin Yao up, "Get up, silly child, what nonsense are you talking about? Apologize to Madam!"

Lin Yao looked reluctant as she stood shyly behind Lin Rui. She leaned over and looked at Xiao Lan, blinking her beautiful big eyes and long eyelashes. "Madam, don't you like my father? He's the best-looking one among us."

Xiao Lan glanced at Jasmine who was standing not far away, and Jasmine stepped forward and said, "Ms. Lin, let's talk about this later. It's not easy to say now." As she spoke, she pointed to the portrait of Sun Shaohua in the mourning hall and put her finger to her mouth to make a "hush" gesture.

Lin Yao nodded playfully, hid behind Lin Rui and stopped talking.

Xiao Lan smiled gently at Lin Rui and did not seem displeased.

"Boss Lin, they're just kids, it's okay. Besides, it's rare that Yaoyao and Jiye get along so well. I hope they can visit more often in the future so the kids can play together more."

Lin Rui looked a little surprised when he heard this, as if he heard something else in Xiao Lan's words. His smile deepened, "This time, I came mainly to say goodbye to my wife. This time, thanks to my wife's family's help, I can get all the herbs here. Master Xiao also promised to ship all the herbs he has. I thought I'd stock up before the New Year. If I can catch Master Xiao's shipment, that would be even better. Then I'll bring Yaoyao back to play with Jiye..." He seemed to feel something was wrong and added, "It should be about a month or so."

"Then I'll wait for you..."

Xiao Lan bowed, and Lin Rui returned the gesture with a fist-clasp. The two of them looked perfectly matched in front of the mourning hall. Jasmine and Begonia didn't say much. After all, Sun Shaohua deserved to see this before he was buried.

After Lin Rui left, the mourning hall suddenly became deserted again, with no one to look after it.

Xiao Lan held Sun Jiye's hand, preparing to let him go back to review his lessons, but Sun Jiye walked slower and slower behind him.

"What's wrong? Don't you want to read?" Xiao Lan looked back at him.

Sun Jiye was heavy, and even Xiao Lan had difficulty pulling him up. He looked awkward, "Does mother like Uncle Lin?"

When Xiao Lan heard him ask this, she guessed what he was thinking.

"Why, isn't Uncle Lin very nice? Don't you like him? Lin Yao is also very good to you and likes to take you out to play."

"I like it, but I don't want to..." Sun Jiye said this and looked up at Xiao Lan.

"What do you not want? Don't you want me to ask Lin Yao to come play with you more often?"

"No~ is~" Sun Jiye dragged out the last word awkwardly, looking unhappy.

Xiao Lan reached out and pinched the flesh on his face, her hands full of softness. "I hope you can make more friends, so I think it's a good thing that Lin Yao can come and play with you. After the New Year, I won't ask the teacher to teach you at home. I will find a good private school for you to study outside. This way you can make more friends and be happier."

"I don't want to go out... they'll say bad things about me."

Sun Jiye had gone out to study before, but people there called him a virgin, so he pestered his grandmother to invite a teacher back to teach him.

"Who dares to say that? You've learned Kung Fu from Master Yu. If anyone dares to say anything unpleasant, you can beat him up!"

Xiao Lan was certain, but Sun Jiye was so surprised that he didn't dare to say a word. He had never thought that his mother would ask him to beat someone up. Every time he lost his temper with a maid, his mother would scold him.

"We just need to be polite to others, but we can't let others bully us. Listen to me and go out and learn. If anyone dares to say anything bad about you, you beat him up!"

-----------------

As soon as Liu Yue went out, she went straight to the military camp. After asking people to report for a long time, she finally saw Liu Yu.

Liu Yu asked her to go to the study, and then he went there to busy himself for a while before coming back to see her.

When Liu Yue saw Liu Yu, she thought about Xiao Lan's words and felt that her elder and second brothers had been deceived by others. She couldn't help crying.

Liu Yu didn't have a good look at Liu Yue, but seeing her not saying a word and just wiping her tears, it still made him think of something.

"What happened to Liu Hu?"

Liu Yue sniffed and couldn't speak for a long time. Liu Yu got anxious and slapped the table, knocking off a piece of wood.

The guards outside the door rushed in with swords drawn. Liu Yu turned around and glared at them, "Get out!"

Everyone quickly closed the door and left. This back and forth made Liu Yue stop crying.

"Speak or not, get out!"

"Where the hell did my second brother go? You didn't even look for him!" Liu Yue finished speaking and started crying again. She felt wronged and didn't understand why her eldest brother always treated her like this. He never treated her well, and it had been like this since she was a child. If it weren't for her second brother protecting her, this eldest brother would have wanted to kill her!

"Didn't you look for Xiao Lan?" Liu Yu naturally knew that Liu Yue had been staying with Xiao Lan for a while, and he also guessed that Liu Hu would be there. But now that he had come back to ask for someone, he was confused.

That day, he approached Liu Hu with Xiao Qi. During the argument, Liu Yu raised his hand to slap Liu Hu, but he didn't expect that Xiao Qi had already made a move.

But just one blow, that one blow... wouldn't it kill him? Lin Rui had said, "Please stop. It's not that serious of an injury."

He wanted to send someone to follow him, but Lin Rui said it was okay... He also knew Liu Hu's tough skills, and he wouldn't let others get hurt that badly. But...

In a blink of an eye, he thought of all the possibilities, but he didn't dare to think about the most terrifying thing.

"No! My second brother likes that vixen so much, but he didn't go to find him! It's been so many days. Even if he didn't come to find me, he should have gone to find her, right? I've been staying with Xiao Lan watching, but I didn't see anyone at all!" Liu Yue knelt on the ground with a thud.

"Brother, I know you don't like me, but you value my second brother. He's been fighting with you since he was a child. Please, look for him! He wouldn't have been gone for so long. Did something happen to him? I really don't know what to do!"

Liu Yue didn't mind kowtow to her elder brother. This was the first time Liu Yu had seen Liu Yue like this. Although he didn't like this sister, he also understood her and knew she wasn't someone who could put on airs.

It seems that Liu Hu is really missing.

The only person who could make Liu Hu ignore his sister and not see Xiao Lan was probably Lin Rui.
