After rebirth, tear the black-hearted husband to pieces and step on the evil mother-in-law
Chapter 10 Taking advantage of the situation
"What are you all standing here for? Why don't you invite Luo Ling in? I've heard that the daughter of the He family is gentle and virtuous, and her appearance is one of the best in a million. Today we finally get to meet her..."
Lan Wanyun's voice was so loud that everyone in the courtyard could hear it clearly.
Then, the door curtain was lifted, and a group of old women and maids came to greet Lin Luoling respectfully.
This scene seemed to give Lin Luoling enough dignity, but Lin Luoling knew that this was a "cage" planned by Lan Wanyun, waiting for her to enter.
Lin Luoling pressed lightly on Chen Yin's palm three times, then slowly walked towards the main hall with lotus steps. The delicate and sickly look was portrayed vividly by Lin Luoling at this moment.
As soon as they entered the main hall, a woman in a purple embroidered skirt came forward, took Lin Luoling's hand, and her joy was beyond words.
Lin Luoling knew that this person was Lan Wanyun.
“Tsk, tsk, tsk…” Lan Wanyun turned to Lan Wanshuang and said, “The rumors are not true. The bride our Xianzhi married is three times more beautiful than the goddess of Yaochi in the painting.”
Lan Wanshuang smiled gently, picked up the teacup and took a sip.
Lan Wanyun's expression changed as she asked distressedly, "Yesterday I heard from your mother-in-law that you were suffering from palpitations. Are you feeling better now? You are still young, so you must take good care of yourself and never be careless."
Lan Wanyun's expression and her words made her look like Lin Luoling's biological aunt.
Lin Luoling pretended not to know who the person in front of him was and looked at Lan Wanshuang.
Lan Wanshuang put down the teacup and introduced, "She is my sister from my mother's family, Xianzhi's aunt, the wife of Wanlixing, the eldest son of Wantong Escort Agency, Lan Wanyun."
Lin Luoling seemed to suddenly realize it, and bowed, "Hello, aunt."
"Your heart palpitations have not yet healed. We are all family relatives, so why bother with all those polite formalities? Your mother-in-law knows that I am a straightforward person.
Although I am the youngest daughter in the family like your mother, I am not as well-mannered as your mother. I am used to being free and unfettered. "
Lan Wanyun raised her handkerchief and laughed heartily.
Then, he pushed Lin Luoling to sit on the wide chair on the right and sighed, "Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to marry a reckless man like the eldest son of Wantong Escort Agency."
Lin Luoling sneered in her heart when she heard this. Lan Wanshuang's father was once the owner of Lansheng Cloth Shop. He had no sons but four daughters.
He treated his four daughters as his cash cows. As long as they could bring honor to his family, he didn't care whether his daughters were wives or concubines, or the age of the women they married. He only cared about their family background and status.
When Lan Wanyun just came of age, her father died of illness and her engagement was broken off.
His mother had no business skills and had no children, so Lansheng Cloth Shop suffered huge losses within three months.
Just then a matchmaker came to propose marriage, and his mother accepted without hesitation.
Less than half a year later, Lan Wanyun married the eldest son of Wantong Escort Agency.
The four daughters of the Lan family married poorer men than the others. Although Lan Wanyun married the eldest son of Wantong Escort Agency, the agency was too small and there were too many children in the family.
Just looking at what Lan Wanyun is wearing, they are all four or five years out of date.
Her makeup was exquisite, and it was obvious that Lan Wanyun must have picked out her best dress and jewelry and dressed up carefully before coming to see her.
Lan Wanyun just said that she was straightforward. Lin Luoling thought about it carefully and realized that this was actually a prelude to her future behavior of throwing tantrums and making trouble.
As soon as Lan Wanyun sat down, Chen Yin sat in the wide chair next to Lin Luoling.
Lan Wanyun thought Chen Yin was Lin Luoling's personal maid, and her face darkened instantly.
Seeing this, Lan Wanshuang hurriedly introduced: "That is Luo Ling's adopted sister, He's adopted daughter Chen Yin, who came to the Marquis' Mansion to treat Luo Ling's heart palpitations."
Lan Wanyun's expression changed when she heard this, and she said with a smile:
"I heard that Chen Yin inherited her grandfather's medical skills and was taught by seven or eight doctors with great medical skills. With her here, I'm sure Luo Ling's heart palpitations will be cured within three to five days."
Neither Lin Luoling nor Chen Yin responded, and the room suddenly became quiet.
Lan Wanyun hurriedly called the maid who came with her and said, "Why don't you take out the gift I gave to my nephew's wife?"
The old woman held a very delicate brocade box in her hands. Lan Wanyun took it and opened it. Inside lay a shining golden phoenix hairpin.
Chen Yin glanced at it and frowned. It was said to be a golden phoenix hairpin, not to mention the crude workmanship, the golden phoenix was as small as a chick.
Even if you make a decent silver phoenix hairpin, it will be better than giving this "golden phoenix hairpin" which is not presentable enough to be given to the younger generation as a wedding gift.
Lan Wanyun smiled as if she was holding a treasure, and said to Lin Luoling:
"I heard that you were going to marry Xianzhi, and I was so happy that I spent the whole night choosing from jewelry boxes, but couldn't find anything I liked. So I melted down the gold bracelet I wore when I got married, and went to the capital to find a craftsman to make a golden phoenix hairpin for you as a wedding gift.
I was thinking of giving it to you yesterday, but considering that you were suffering from palpitations, I had no choice but to come and give it to you early this morning."
Lan Wanyun paused, sighed, and then continued:
"The Lin family is a big family with great wealth. I'm sure you, Luo Ling, don't have any precious jewelry. Don't despise this phoenix hairpin because it's small. After all, it's my sincere gift as your aunt. Although the gift is small, the friendship is great."
"I wonder if you like it?" Lan Wanyun asked.
Lin Luoling knew that this was a fake "Golden Phoenix Hairpin". Seeing Nanny Meng coming to serve her tea, she stood up and said with a smile:
"I really like this golden phoenix hairpin given by my aunt."
As she spoke, Lin Luoling was about to take the brocade box from Lan Wanyun's hand, pretending to be tripped by Nanny Meng who came to serve tea.
After staggering a few steps, he knocked the brocade box in Lan Wanyun's hand to the ground, and Lin Luoling fell to the side of Lan Wanyun's feet.
There is a "ding" sound.
When everyone looked, they saw that the golden phoenix hairpin was broken into two pieces.
Lin Luoling showed a frightened look, touched his chest and sighed that it was a close call.
Chen Yin had sharp eyes and immediately noticed the strangeness of the "Golden Phoenix Hairpin" next to Lin Luoling's hand. He walked forward to help Lin Luoling, picked up the "Golden Phoenix Hairpin" that was broken into two pieces, and exclaimed "Huh" in surprise.
It was visibly seen that Lan Wanyun's expression changed suddenly.
Lin Luoling seemed not to notice and asked, "Sister, what's wrong?"
Chen Yin held the Golden Phoenix Hairpin in his palm and said, "Look!"
Lan Wanshuang also realized that the golden phoenix hairpin was fake, and was obviously a little embarrassed, so she turned to look at Lan Wanyun.
Lan Wanyun cried out, "This damn craftsman melted my gold bracelet and deceived me."
After saying that, Lan Wanyun took the broken golden phoenix hairpin and pretended to examine it carefully.
With the help of Chen Yin, Lin Luoling stood up. Knowing that Lan Wanyun was trying to save her face, she deliberately said:
"Don't be angry, Aunt. I wonder which shop in the capital city you had this golden phoenix hairpin made in. My mother's family also has several jewelry shops in the capital.
Aunt, just tell me the name of the shop, and I will ask my mother to send someone to seek justice for Aunt in person. I will definitely not let Aunt suffer this loss."
Lan Wanyun's golden phoenix hairpin was not made in the capital at all. Instead, she bought it at a street stall. She also bought some gold foil papers, melted them at home, and plated them into the shape of a golden phoenix hairpin. The total cost was less than one or two taels of silver.
What's more, Lan Wanyun had never been to the capital city. How could she name any jewelry shop in the capital city?
