New ink fragrance in old times

"Your son's injury is his own fault. You can't blame anyone else. As for my Dalang, his future is not something you can threaten."

Tang Ming watched the argument between his mother and mother-in-law, feeling helpless and exhausted.

He hurried forward and tried to calm both sides down.

However, Tang's mother's emotions were out of control. She refused to listen to Tang Ming's persuasion and continued to point at Zhao Yue'e, shouting:

"You, the Lin family, are bullies. I'm going to take my grandchildren away today. Let's see what you can do to me."

Zhao Yue'e looked at Tang's mother's unreasonable behavior and felt disappointed and angry.

She shook her head and said in a cold tone, "Go away. We in the Lin family don't welcome you."

"Second brother, third brother, please ask them to leave."

Lin Xuejin and Lin Xuebao had been waiting in the yard for a long time, waiting for Zhao Yue'e to speak.

Upon hearing Zhao Yue'e's order, they all walked into the main hall at the same time, ready to execute the order to expel the guests, which should have been done long ago.

Mother Tang's face turned even darker. She raised her chin and said sharply, "Hmph, you Lin family, think you can scare my Tang family like this? Let me tell you, my Tang family is not a pushover!"

Zhao Yue'e did not directly respond to Tang's mother's provocation, but just glanced coldly at Tang Ming who was standing beside her.

Tang Ming felt his mother-in-law's complex and deep gaze, and felt a pang of sadness in his heart.

He took a deep breath and bowed deeply to Zhao Yue'e, his tone filled with helplessness and determination:

"Mother, today's incident was caused by my son-in-law's inappropriate handling, which has caused you trouble. Please rest assured, Ya'er and the children will stay here with you for now. I will definitely resolve this matter properly and give you an explanation."

Zhao Yue'e was silent for a moment, as if she was measuring the sincerity of Tang Ming's words.

In the end, she just sighed softly and said nothing more.

Lin Xuebo, who was standing by, gave Tang Ming a sharp look, his tone carrying an undeniable warning: "Tang Ming, you'd better keep your word."

Tang Ming quickly nodded in agreement, then turned to look at his mother, his eyes filled with both reproach and pleading: "Mom, let's go back."

Although Tang's mother was unwilling, she had no choice but to follow Tang Ming and leave the Lin family in anger under her son's insistence.

Along the way, Tang Ming felt mixed emotions. He couldn't understand why his mother was so out of control, even though he had repeatedly told her to stay calm.

Hey~

It seems that I can only go to my uncle and others.

Zhao Yue'e sat quietly in the main room, feeling a little uncomfortable as she recalled Tang's mother's threatening words.

Why did I marry my daughter into the Tang family? This is not a marriage, it is clearly an enmity.

Lin Xiya called out softly, "Mom."

There was a barely perceptible hint of worry in his voice.

Zhao Yue'e sat on a chair in the main hall: "You heard everything, right?"

Lin Xiya nodded gently, complex emotions flashing in her clear eyes.

"Don't worry too much."

Zhao Yue'e looked at Lin Xiya gently and said, "Go to the kitchen and help your sisters-in-law."

Lin Xiya responded, "Okay, Mom. I'll go right away."

After saying that, she turned and left, but her steps were a little heavy.

Zhao Yue'e looked at her granddaughter's departing back, feeling mixed emotions.

After Lin Xiya completely disappeared behind the door, Lin Sixuan slowly entered the main hall. His steps were steady, but a hint of solemnity could not be concealed between his brows. "Grandma," he saluted respectfully.

Zhao Yue'e looked up and her eyes met Lin Sixuan's, as if she was trying to find the answer from her grandson's eyes.

"Da Lang, what do you think about this?"

Lin Sixuan frowned slightly, as if choosing his words: "This... grandson doesn't know what to do."

Lin Wenhong walked in and joined the conversation.

"The Tang family's affairs are indeed a hidden danger. Tang Ming is a good person, but as a child, you can't completely disobey your parents' wishes."

Zhao Yue'e sighed softly, her eyes far-reaching: "I just hope that there is someone in the Tang family who is sensible and can see through the interests involved."

Upon hearing this, Lin Sixuan was silent for a moment, as if thinking about something.

Lin Wenhong looked at Lin Sixuan and said, "Dalang, it's enough for you to know about the family affairs. Nothing will affect you. The most important thing right now is the county exam in February. You must not slack off in the next few months."

Lin Sixuan bowed his head respectfully and replied, "I understand, Grandfather. I will study hard for the exam and live up to your expectations."

Zhao Yue'e looked at Lin Sixuan lovingly, "Da Lang, I know what you're worried about. Don't worry, the guarantee issue has been resolved. You don't need to worry about it anymore. Focus on preparing for the exam. That's the most urgent thing."

A hint of surprise and confusion flashed in Lin Sixuan's eyes. He asked excitedly: "Solved? Yes..."

Zhao Yue'e smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry about it, Dalang. When you enter the county school, we can go to Zhaozhuang to announce the good news to your great-grandmother. We must also go to the Han, Shen, Lu, and Zhai families."

Lin Sixuan felt a surge of warmth in his heart as he listened. He bowed deeply and said gratefully, "Grandson, I'm grateful for your guidance. I will remember the kindness of every elder and study even harder to live up to everyone's expectations."

Lin Wenhong looked at his grandson's determined eyes and nodded with satisfaction. "Dalang, I'm glad you think this way. Remember, no matter what the outcome, you must maintain a calm mind and not be arrogant in victory or discouraged in defeat."

Lin Sixuan: "Grandfather's teachings are what I will keep in mind."

Lin Mo hid in the shadows in the dark. As soon as he heard the quarrel in the yard, he walked out and hid aside to eat melons.

Sure enough, I watched several big shows.

The Tang and Lin families exchanged words, undercurrents swirling between them as they tested each other's limits. This kind of masterful duel wasn't something you saw every day.

There is a high probability that my aunt will not be able to leave me.

Lin Mo was immersed in his own thoughts, digesting the conversation between the few people.

The eldest brother's problem seems to have been resolved. It is not difficult to guess that every family has contributed more or less to this matter.

"Everyone in the Lin family will take the imperial examination. No wonder they are so strict about us memorizing." Lin Mo muttered his guess in his heart.

Thinking of this, Lin Mo couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency.

"It seems that I have to work harder."

Lin Mo felt that he had guessed the truth correctly, but the treatment he, Lin Sizhe and others received remained unchanged. Everyone continued to do what they were supposed to do after breakfast.

Logically, I should be studying in the house like my elder and second brothers, but it's no different from usual. I'm still working and reciting at the same time.

Same person but different fate, so envious.

Just as Lin Mo was immersed in his self-reflection, Lin Xuebo's voice suddenly rang out in the yard, interrupting his thoughts: "Sanlang, Silang, Tang Qing, the three of you come here."

"You must finish memorizing the Hundred Family Names before lunch today. When you finish, you can eat."

Lin Xuebao's words were concise and powerful, leaving no room for negotiation.

Lin Mo's heart tightened, no!

"Ok."

The three of them answered in unison, their faces looking as if they had lost their parents.
