Marrying a concubine and swallowing her dowry? The mistress turns around and marries a high-ranking

Chapter 422

Upon hearing this, both Madam Yin and Yin Bohong were stunned.

Yin Bohong refused without hesitation.

"No way! I will never take a concubine or have a mistress!"

Shen Lingxia looked at him with feigned surprise.

"Husband, why not? Of the three unfilial acts, the greatest is to have no offspring!"

Now it was her turn to use the same words the Yin family had used to suppress her every day to talk about Yin Bohong.

She earnestly advised, "My lord, I am incapable of bearing children, but you still have the responsibility to continue the family line! Why are you unwilling to continue the bloodline of the third branch of the Yin family?"

Yin Bohong: "......"

How was he supposed to answer that?!

Shen Lingxia also turned to Master Yin and Madam Yin, attempting to win them over as allies.

"Father, Mother, please persuade Bohong! I really don't understand why he refuses to have children. How can an adopted child be better than one's own? Without a biological child, the direct bloodline of the third branch will end with Bohong's generation!"

Mr. Yin and Mrs. Yin: "..."

They also hoped that Yin Bohong would take a concubine so that he could have more children!

Although the Yin family was not a prestigious clan, they always felt that they had a lot of imperial thrones to inherit and attached great importance to their offspring.

However, this Yin Bohong is really...

Madam Yin looked at Yin Bohong with a troubled expression.

“Bohong, Lingxia is right, look at this…”

When Yin Bohong saw that Shen Lingxia had effortlessly shifted the blame to him with just a few words, he was both anxious and angry.

He was furious: "How many times have I told you, I will never take a concubine or a maid! I will definitely adopt this child and make him the eldest son of the Yin family!"

Shen Lingxia coldly observed the reactions of the Yin family members from the side.

What puzzled her was that it seemed the elderly Mr. and Mrs. Yin still hoped that Yin Bohong would take a concubine and have children.

Why is that? Didn't they know Yin Bohong was incapable?

And Yin Bohong's reaction was so intense...

Shen Lingxia shook her head, looking as if she thought Yin Bohong was unreasonable.

“Husband, forgive my bluntness, but you’re being unreasonable. What’s so special about this child that you insist on adopting him and refuse to have children of your own? Many children bring many blessings, and a thriving family means a prosperous lineage. A large and flourishing family is the foundation of a family. If you’re unwilling to have more children, the third branch of the Yin family might begin to decline from your perspective. How can you face your father and mother, how can you face the Yin family?”

Shen Lingxia kept spouting grand principles, speaking earnestly and solemnly, and slapping one high-sounding label after another on Yin Bohong's head.

She now realizes how satisfying it is to shift the responsibilities that this world uses to oppress women onto men!

Shen Lingxia's constant lecturing and nagging would normally have earned her a severe scolding for being disrespectful, but surprisingly, Mr. and Mrs. Yin didn't get angry at all; in fact, they thought what she said made a lot of sense!

Madam Yin: "Bohong, look how sensible Lingxia is. Your wife is so tolerant and generous, even encouraging you to take concubines and maids. Don't be stubborn. Having more children is the right thing to do. Look at your two older brothers, they already have a whole bunch of kids..."

Yin Bohong: "......"

He was absolutely furious.

They were the ones who got Shen Lingxia to agree to adopt the child today, so how did things turn out like this?

Everyone is pressuring him!
