After my rebirth, I was the most favored person in Beijing

At night.

Lin Hewen walked to the gate of Xu's yard. She hadn't seen Xu for a long time. She used to be able to walk into Xu's yard happily, but now, walking into Xu's yard made her feel psychologically burdened.

"Xu's family?"

Xu walked out slowly from the inner room, her hair disheveled and she felt very sad.

She went from being the high and mighty mistress of the Lin Mansion to falling into the quagmire and being imprisoned in the yard by Lin Hewen, and then released.

In the past, all she wanted was Lin Hewen's wholehearted love, but now in her heart, she no longer desires for anything else. She knows that Lin Hewen must look down on her now, and many people are scolding her for being cruel behind her back, but she doesn't care.

She only cares about Lin Hewen.

In the end, I found out that Lin Hewen is really unreliable and not worthy of relying on at all.

"I've really wronged you during this period of time. Are you still thinking about Buy Maiyuan?" Hearing this, Xu had already complained about Lin Hewen in her heart. How could she be shaken by his words now?

What's more, there are some things she no longer wants to say. Ever since she married him, she has subconsciously restrained her temper, and now she has become a person that even her aunt is afraid of.

Lin Hewen, when will you pay me back what you owe me?

In Xu's heart, the thought of the humiliation that Lin Hewen had brought upon her made her afraid to go out for so long, for fear that once she went out, all the people who had envied her in the past would now laugh at her.

Under the current circumstances, she no longer wants to think about anything else. The power in her hands is the most important thing now.

As for the rest of the flowers, she didn't want to say more now. Some things happened and they have already happened. There is no room for beating around the bush.

"It's my fault. I have neglected you recently, but you also know that the child is the future of the Lin family. I also know that in your heart, you can't let go of Lin Zhaoyu. I will have someone call him back after a while."

Xu smiled quickly and said to him, "Thank you, Master."

When Lin Hewen saw her wearing the clothes she wore when they were in love, he quickly asked, "Why are you wearing this dress..."

When he saw Xu in this state, Lin Hewen felt as if he had suddenly returned to his youth, when he was ready to fight against the entire Lin family for Xu.

When people get old, they like to reminisce.

Naturally, because of this, we will feel more compassion for people with whom we have common memories.

Ever since Xu asked Lin Hewen to come tonight, he has been coming to Xu's yard for several days in a row.

And Lin Zhaoyu, who was far away in his hometown, was finally called back.

This time, Lin Zhaoyu seemed like a different person. He became very humble and respectful, and there was no trace of the playboy he used to be. When Xu saw Lin Zhaoyu like this, her heart was broken.

Lin Min also followed to see Lin Zhaoyu.

As soon as Lin Zhaoyu saw Lin Min, he bowed his head and said with deep apology, "I was wrong before. Please don't blame me, cousin."

He seems to be very arrogant and never apologizes to others.

Seeing that Lin Min had not spoken, Xu felt distressed and could not help but speak for him: "Lin Min, Zhao Yu was just young before and had not experienced much. Just forgive him!"

Since it was the elders who spoke, Lin Min couldn't keep insisting on this, but deep down, he was unwilling to forgive Lin Zhaoyu.

For so many years, he has lived under the oppression of Lin Zhaoyu. If it were not for his eldest sister who helped him, he would probably still be living under the shadow of Lin Zhaoyu until now.

Now I even want him to forgive Lin Zhaoyu.

How could I truly forgive him?

After all, under the current circumstances, his forgiveness not only earned him a good reputation, but also let many people know what Lin Zhaoyu had done to them.

Even...

However, he didn't like it, he really didn't like such behavior in his heart.

So, he took a step back and followed Lin Zhaoyu in saluting, and replied in a light voice: "Brother Zhaoyu, if you apologize, will I definitely forgive you?"

He sneered repeatedly on his face and thought in his heart that he would not believe that Lin Zhaoyu, who had always been domineering and hateful, could completely change his temperament after a trip to his hometown.

But in this situation, many people are unable to speak.

No one expected that Lin Min could directly reject Lin Zhaoyu's apology in front of everyone.

Lin Hewen's face turned ugly. After all, he was very happy to see the change in Lin Zhaoyu this time. He even thought about it secretly and decided to find a way for the future of this child. Under such circumstances, Lin Min could actually say such words to everyone, which made no one respond.

Lin Hewen felt uncomfortable, but he also admired the child Lin Min.

Lin Zhaoyu didn't know that Lin Hewen had a concubine. When he saw an unfamiliar woman standing next to his father with a baby in her arms, his alarm bells immediately rang.

"Father, who is she?"

When Lin Hewenbei was asked this, he didn't know what to say. For so many years, he had only Xu by his side. The children around him were used to it, and in fact, he was used to it too. Now that he was suddenly questioned like this, he was speechless.

"She is your father's aunt and your elder. You must not be rude when speaking to her." Lin Hewen said this with the airs of an elder, but he was still worried about whether Lin Zhaoyu could bear this matter.

After all, Lin Zhaoyu is the child he has been with since he was young. How could he not feel sorry for him?

Seeing the child's face changed, he became nervous. He didn't know if it was Madam Wen who pointed out that the situation was not right. He stood up and greeted Lin Zhaoyu.

She said in a gentle and graceful voice, "Madam Wen, meet the young master, this is the young master's little brother."

Hearing this, Lin Zhaoyu was instantly furious. How could he have a younger brother?

In his heart, he felt since he was a child that he was the only heir to the Lin family, so it was natural for him to be uneducated, because the Lin family would always back him up.

Now, suddenly she had a younger brother, who would have to divide the family property with her in the future. When she thought about all this, she felt very uncomfortable. However, she had just returned home and it was impossible for her to quarrel with her father because of this matter.

After all, my father can still abandon me to my hometown and ignore me.

Lin Zhaoyu finally controlled his temper, walked forward and took a look at the child.

When he saw the child, he found that his features were so similar to his father's. He suddenly had no idea what was going on and was so frightened that he almost ran away.

He suddenly realized that if his father had other children, he would not be the only one.

With this younger brother, Lin Zhaoyu can only be his father's abandoned son.

When he thought of this, the hatred in Lin Zhaoyu's heart kept surging. Why did he fall to his current state? Since he came to Beijing, he heard others say that during this period of time, Lin Min had given him a lot of face outside the capital.

So, why, after he left, the Lin Mansion seemed to have disappeared without a trace?

When he thought of this, he felt very uncomfortable, but he couldn't express it completely at the moment. Some things were still difficult to express clearly.

"Father, I'm tired from the long journey and feel unwell. I want to go down and have a rest." Lin Zhaoyu lowered his head so that others would not notice his emotions.

However, everything he had just thought of fell into the seriousness of Old Lady Lin. She couldn't help but shake her head. Even if she didn't like her grandson, he was still her grandson. The future of the Lin Mansion would always be handed over to them. Now that it had become like this in their hands, she had no idea what the future would be like.

Under the current circumstances, there are some things that really have to be said.

······

······

Lin Zhaoyu returned to his room. The long-lost feeling of familiarity finally calmed his uneasy heart.

As soon as he left, Xu followed him back. When she saw that his cheeks were thin and his chin was pointed, she couldn't help feeling distressed. Some things should not be said now, but it does not mean that they will not be said in the future. These things now really make people feel very distressed.

Ultimately, this matter was someone else's fault, and now my two children have suffered.

"Mother, you..." The accusatory words were choked in his throat. Lin Zhaoyu knew that it was not his mother's fault. Looking at his mother's haggard face, he suddenly became much more mature and asked comfortingly: "Mother, how are you these days?"

He suddenly remembered, wasn't his second sister already married to the Ninth Prince?

If so, could he get onto the bridge leading into the Ninth Prince's Palace because of this?

Lin Zhaoyu asked again with great interest: "Second sister, have you ever come back since you got married?"

Hearing this, Xu's heart stopped. There were some things that she couldn't say no matter how she said them. But now she could only lie to Lin Zhaoyu, "Your second sister is just a concubine of the Ninth Prince. She is of no use."

"What about my eldest sister? I was at home, but I heard from others that my eldest sister was married off by His Majesty. This kind of honor is something that others may not be able to match even if they flatter." When Lin Zhaoyu said this, he felt very proud.

It would be nice if I could get in touch with Lin Xi.

He remembered that Lin Zhaoyu had a lot of money in his hands, but it was not much.

Now that he was in this state, he still said some words, "Mother, don't give me any more thoughts, right!" "How dare she!" Madam Chen slapped the table hard, glanced at Chunhua who came to deliver something, and then put on a loving face: "How is your wife now?"

Chunhua didn't expect the Madam to change so quickly. After she reacted, she replied, "Madam, you just woke up after hearing the bad news. I'm afraid that you'll delay your stay at home, so I sent a servant to bring it to you. Please bear with me, Madam."

Chen looked coldly at the seal and account book on the table in front of her, understood what was going on, and waved her hand impatiently to let her go.

Chen Yushu, who was originally crying, seemed to come to her senses and blurted out, "Mother, my sister-in-law doesn't care about anything, who will give me pocket money?"

"Shut up!" Chen scolded, her face livid, and she managed to squeeze out a few words: "How is it possible? Since there was a way to get her to marry into the Chen family, there must be a way to make her obedient."

"What's more, she is now the daughter-in-law of the Chen family. If she doesn't do the housekeeping work, will she leave it to me, an elderly and frail mother-in-law?"

Chen Yushu pouted and mentioned the woman outside the door who was said to be her brother's mistress. When she thought about Lin Xi marrying into the Chen family and not spending much time with her brother, if...

"Mother, what should I do if my sister-in-law wants to marry again?"

When I think about the fact that none of Lin Xiliushui’s dowry belongs to the Chen family, what will happen to her future dowry?

There were many widows in Da Sheng who remarried, especially those with high status and good reputation, and it just so happened that her sister-in-law had everything.

Chen leaned on the soft pillow, one hand pressed on her temple, the other hand on Chen Yushu's shoulder, and said tiredly: "Her father will never allow her to divorce, not to mention that flowers do not last forever. The Jiang family is now a hero, and I don't know if it will be the same in the future." At this point, Chunhua beside Lin Xi helped her up and knelt on the ground, "I am too ashamed to manage the family. As long as the thieves are not cleared out, I will not be able to manage the family."

Although Chen Bokang was a military general, he also listened carefully to Lin Xi's words.

The thing she mentioned about secretly placing letters was not unprecedented. Taizu had someone bribe the slaves of his opponents in the officialdom to hide the rebellious letters in the back garden, and then had someone report it, which made Taizu very angry. Although this method was full of loopholes, it cannot be said to be a method.

Chen Bokang looked at Lin Xi as if he was meeting her for the first time.

Chen was horrified when she saw the change in the master's eyes. Her heart was pounding. She stood up and helped Lin Xi up. She gently consoled her, "What are you talking about, daughter-in-law? We naturally trust your ability as a housekeeper. If you insist on finding out, we can just bribe the people in your yard and buy a few more people back."

Chen looked at Lin Xi who had a calm expression. How could she become so powerful in her life? Both the old lady and the master changed their attitude because of her few words.

Hearing this, Lin Xi's eyebrows curved. This meant that her mother-in-law wanted to lay off all her staff. Her mother-in-law really wanted her dowry.

She would not let her succeed and would make her spit out as much as she ate.

Lin Xi raised his head and said with grievance: "This matter has not been investigated yet. If we rashly lay off the staff around my daughter-in-law, wouldn't it make others think that the government is insecure?"

Chen Bokang glanced at Chen, slightly dissatisfied, "Forget it, let's discuss this matter after Ah Chu's funeral!"

Three days after the ritual, relatives and friends were invited to come and send Chen Chusheng to the ancestral grave. But now Chen Chusheng's body was not brought back, only the news of his death was brought back.

Chen Bokang had his doubts in his heart, but he never showed them on his face. He looked at Lin Xi and said, "You are right. The theft in your courtyard is not good for the reputation of the Chen family. Naturally, we have to investigate it thoroughly. But I heard on the way back that Ah Chu still has children outside?"

This matter is also embarrassing. Chen went to see the child, who was obviously over six years old and looked exactly like Ah Chu when he was a child. However, since there was no legal mother at home, he had a concubine outside. If Lin Xi wanted to make a fuss, she was right.
