What a beautiful sight it is to see a beautiful woman crying in front of him, softly accusing him of being heartless.

This is Nan Huaishuo's favorite tune.

Nan Huaishuo couldn't help but feel soft-hearted, "Miss Lin Er has misunderstood."

Lin Qingrou cried even harder, her soft cry, like a cat's meow, was like a feather, constantly tickling Nan Huaishuo's heart.

"Then why, why did Your Highness ignore Rou'er?"

Lin Qingrou held the handkerchief and looked up at him slightly, her red eyes gazing up at him, tears about to fall, making her look adorable.

Nan Huaishuo is totally fooled by this!

He comforted himself in his heart that it was Lin Jiang who set up the trap, and Lin Qingrou just couldn't disobey her brother's orders.

Lin Qingrou just loves and admires him too much, what's wrong with her?

Nan Huaishuo unconsciously lowered his voice and took courage, and soon the two of them were hugging each other.

Not far away, Lin Jiang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this scene.

Recently, he felt that Nan Huaishuo was becoming increasingly cold towards him, which made him feel a little uneasy as if he had fallen out of favor. Fortunately, Lin Qingrou had a way to control Nan Huaishuo.

As they were hugging, Nan Huaishuo suddenly thought of Lin Yushu, such a bright and intelligent woman...

"Does Rou'er know Ehuang and Nvying? Is there any way..."

After hearing Nan Huaishuo's words, Lin Qingrou's face suddenly froze.

Lin Yushu, it’s Lin Yushu again!

She has slept with Nan Huaishuo, but he is still thinking about Lin Yushu!

"Well, my elder sister has always been stubborn, I'm afraid Rou'er can't do anything about it."

After Nan Huaishuo's plot against Lin Mingyue failed, he once again set his sights on Lin Yushu. It seemed that it would be better to marry her.

After listening to Lin Qingrou's words, Nan Huaishuo did not intend to give up.

"You two are sisters, you will always find a way. And even if I marry her in the future, the position of the principal wife will still be yours."

Lin Qingrou bit her handkerchief tightly, fearing that she would accidentally scream and tell Nan Huaishuo to "get out".

After the two of them talked to each other for a long time, Lin Qingrou was finally persuaded by Nan Huaishuo. He felt much more relieved and was just looking forward to the two sisters sharing the same husband.

Looking at Nan Huaishuo's departing back, Lin Qingrou's tenderness disappeared completely, leaving only a deep coldness in her eyes.

Humph, you’re dreaming about marrying Lin Yushu!

It's just to rely on Lin Mingyue's power. It's better to marry a scheming Lin Yushu than a stupid person, such as...

Ye Wanling!

The second branch of the Lin family has parted ways with Lin Mingyue. Lin Qingrou knows that she is of little use, but she also doesn't want Nan Huaishuo to marry the hard-to-kill Lin Yushu.

Fortunately, their family has a very close relationship with the Duke of Qing’s Mansion, so even if Nan Huaishuo marries the brainless Ye Wanling, Lin Qingrou can easily control her.

After making up her mind, Lin Qingrou hurried towards the kitchen.

Neither she nor Nan Huaishuo noticed that there was a little boy squatting in the flowers not far away, catching grasshoppers.

It turned out to be the illegitimate son of the second wife, Lin Zan, the child left by the late concubine Chen.

Lin Zan blinked, seemed to understand their intentions, and ran quickly towards the banquet hall.

The birthday banquet began in the main hall.

There was a lot of people drinking and drinking, and it was very lively.

Although it was the old lady who was celebrating her birthday, the officials all held up their glasses to toast Lin Mingyue, and Lin Minglang was left out.

Logically speaking, he was a minister of the second rank, and there was no reason for the old foxes in the officialdom to squeeze him so obviously.

However, precisely because they were all shrewd and worldly-wise, they could see that Emperor Ming's attitude towards Lin Minglang had changed greatly.

It might not be long before the name of the General’s Mansion will be changed to Lin Mingyue’s mansion!

Lin Minglang's face turned black and blue, and he could only force himself to drink alone.

As for the ladies and young ladies, after finishing the banquet, some went to the stage in the courtyard to watch a play, while others went to the garden to enjoy the flowers and chat.

Lin Yushu was talking to Ye Wanling when a black shadow half a person's height suddenly appeared behind her, scaring her.

"Lin Zan?"

Lin Zan is already eleven years old. His height has reached Lin Yushu's shoulders. He has a slender body and a round baby face, and he is very cute.

"Meet big sister."

Lin Zan was very polite and bowed to Lin Yushu obediently.

It was rare for Lin Yushu to have a good impression of people from the second house. First it was Lin Fang, and then it was Lin Zan. It seemed that the two illegitimate children from the second house were not bad looking.

"Big sister, I have something to tell you..."

Lin Zan told Lin Yushu everything that had just happened in the garden.

The reason is simple: Lin Zan doesn't like Lin Qingrou, nor does he like the Second Madam.

As a child of this age, he should have learned to read and write in school, or at least learn martial arts.

However, although the Second Lady kept him by her side, she seemed to be on guard against him as if he were an enemy. However, others could not see it, and Lin Zan only discovered that something was wrong in the last two years.

The second wife did not require him to study or practice martial arts. She only gave him delicious food and drinks, let him play however he wanted, and never scolded him.

The young masters from other mansions that he knew were all very envious of him.

Lin Zan thought so at first, and felt that he was lucky to have a stepmother who doted on him.

It was not until Lin Fang, his third sister, told him that this was not right that he realized that something was indeed wrong.

If the Second Lady’s unlimited doting is really a good thing, why isn’t there a single official’s son who grows up like this?

Praise and kill.

This was the word his third sister told him. He slowly figured out the meaning of the word and felt angry and wary of the Second Madam and Lin Qingrou, who had never liked him.

Two years ago, he took the initiative to find his father Lin Minglang and asked to go to school. Later, he found that he was enlightened too late and could not keep up at all. He was not a literary man, so he hired a martial arts master to learn martial arts in his house.

Although the little Lin Zan looks thin, he actually has strong muscles underneath his clothes, and he can break a sandbag with one punch.

He especially admired his uncle and elder brother, who were generals who fought in the battlefield. Unfortunately, the second wife never allowed him to visit his uncle and elder brother in the west courtyard.

Until today, he finally had the chance to say a word to his elder sister.

Lin Zan clenched his fists, his palms were sweaty, fearing that Lin Yushu would not believe what he said.

He didn't know the ins and outs of the backyard, but he could guess that Lin Qingrou and Nan Huaishuo were going to harm his elder sister.

"Befriend the eldest sister."

This is what his third sister Lin Fang told him before she got married.

He heard from the servants that Aunt Qiao once had a fully formed male fetus, but for unknown reasons she suddenly miscarried. Since then, Aunt Qiao, who was already in poor health, had to take medicine all the time, and her health completely deteriorated.

Lin Zan thought to himself that his third sister might treat him like this because she was thinking of her younger brother who died before he was born.

Although he is young, after experiencing the second wife's flattery, he can clearly see through people's sincerity and falsehood.

Just like the big sister in front of him at this moment, the gaze he looked at was clear and calm, without a trace of calculation.

He believed what his third sister said and he wanted to be friends with his eldest sister!
