Chapter 178 Pregnant?
Chapter 178 Pregnant?
Thinking of my youngest daughter, she is still in prison without seeing the light of day, and I don’t know when she will be able to see the light of day again.
They are really one more troublesome than the other. What sin did she commit that her two daughters are living such a miserable life?
Look at Lin Yuxi again. She eats soft and delicious food. She has become plump and white in just over two months. How did she do that?
She is just a lowly child born to a lowly concubine. How can she be compared with her two precious daughters?
The more Liu thought about it, the more unbalanced she felt. There was a gleam of unwillingness in her eyes, but her face did not reveal a single bit of disgust.
It was the first time that Lin Yuxi heard about Lin Yuhan. Thinking of Sun Siming, whom she had met twice, she frowned slightly. He looked at her in a too frivolous way and she didn't like it.
But persuasion was still necessary, so he said softly: "Mother, don't be too sad. Big sister is young and energetic. She has been married to brother-in-law for less than half a year. Naturally, she can't tolerate even a grain of sand in her eyes. Big sister is virtuous and polite. Brother-in-law will understand the goodness of big sister in the future."
This sentence really touched Liu's heart. How could the daughter who came out of her belly be good? Naturally, she would be the best and no one could compare to her. You see, sooner or later, those short-sighted people will regret it.
He smiled at Lin Yuxi again and praised her: "You are a sensible person! In fact, I came here today to ask for your help."
Lin Yuxi raised her eyebrows, and finally couldn't help it, and said playfully: "Mother, what are you talking about? There is no need to be distant. If you have any difficulties, just tell me. I will never say no to anything that I can do."
After hearing her words, Liu smiled and took a sip of tea before saying:
"It's all about your father's shit. He's already old and still wants to marry a concubine. I feel ashamed for him if he doesn't think it's shameful. You know, our Lin family used to be a simple merchant family. I couldn't control how many concubines he wanted to take. But now it's different. You married into an official family, so you are related to the official family. You have to marry a wife and concubines that are of equal status. It's not that I don't agree, but I'm considering your face. Your father married a village girl, which is embarrassing for you. He didn't even think about how you will live in your husband's family in the future. Tell me, is this reasonable?"
After hearing what Liu said, she couldn't help but sneer in her heart.
Every word he said was out of consideration for her. To put it bluntly, he didn't agree, but he didn't dare to disobey Master Lin and push her, Lin Yuxi, out to be the scapegoat.
Lin Yuxi saw through Liu's trick as soon as she opened her mouth, so she naturally wouldn't be stupid enough to oppose Master Lin taking a concubine.
What's more, whether he gets married or not has no substantial impact on her. At most, she will be ridiculed by the gossipy second wife.
She looked at Liu with embarrassment, pursing her lips and saying nothing. Seeing this, Liu cursed her as an idiot in her heart, but a look of worry appeared on her face.
"You are young and don't know the importance of this. Even though everyone is flattering you now, they are actually laughing at you behind your back. Moreover, you are still a half-daughter who married into the family, not a biological daughter. What's more, no matter how much they love you, it doesn't matter. As the saying goes, a hundred good words cannot equal one bad one. If you talk too much about things that gossip about others, your parents-in-law will inevitably feel uncomfortable and alienate you."
Liu was almost unable to continue speaking, and Lin Yuxi still looked embarrassed and timid. She thought to herself, a bastard is a bastard, and even if she married into a rich family, she could not change her timid and cowardly character.
But she kept persuading her. Now she only had Lin Yuxi as her lifeline. No matter how stubborn Mr. Lin was, he would always give Lin Yuxi some face.
Otherwise, if that vixen were to take the position of co-wife, and I no longer had any real power, it was possible that Master Lin would hand over the family to that bitch, and then I would really have no place to stand in the Lin family.
Thinking of this, Liu became more and more anxious. In the end, she made up her mind and said in a calm voice:
"I am also thinking about you. How can a mother harm her own child? You will be right if you listen to me. Come with me and persuade your father. What he did was not right. If he doesn't handle it well, he will be disliked by the prefect. Even if our family is not good, there are so many people to take care of it. But if you marry in alone, you will have to depend on your parents-in-law in the future."
Lin Yuxi lowered her head, rolling her eyes until her eyes were almost cramped. Liu was still talking tirelessly, and finally couldn't listen anymore, so she said with a bitter face:
"Mother, Daddy wants to marry a concubine, that's the elders' business. It's not that I won't help you, it's just that I can't! Those who know will say that you are very understanding, but those who don't will say that your daughter is unruly and even wants to control the people in Daddy's room. My parents-in-law don't want to see that either."
After all that happened, Liu hasn't changed and still treats everyone as fools, Lin Yuxi complained inwardly.
"You...how can you be so short-sighted? Let me tell you..." Liu wanted to continue speaking, but Lin Yuxi didn't want to listen anymore and interrupted her.
"Mother, it's a rare visit for you, why don't I take you around? I can't do anything about daddy's affairs, and my husband won't allow me to interfere. Besides, you are the legal wife, so even if dad marries a concubine, she is still inferior to you, right?"
She changed the subject, and Liu vomited in her stomach, feeling very uncomfortable. She stared at Lin Yuxi as if she wanted to eat her.
She begged and surrendered, but this concubine even dared to give her face. If she had no other choice, she would never come to beg her even if she was beaten to death.
She was not in the mood to stroll around the garden.
Lin Yuxi refused to help, and Liu's face darkened immediately. Her tone was no longer as warm as before. She shook off her hand and said coldly:
"I can't blame you if you don't dare to intervene in this matter. After all, your father is the elder. There is one thing here that you must be in charge of. Please help me with it."
That tone and attitude didn't sound like begging at all. Even Lu Yun felt so angry after hearing it, because it was clearly an order.
Lu Yun felt her stomach churn after hearing what she just said. She had never seen anyone with such a thick skin. Fortunately, the young lady had a good temper, so she listened to her nonsense for so long. If it were her, she would have ignored her long ago.
Anything else?
Lin Yuxi raised her eyebrows, and Liu didn't wait for her to express her opinion, and continued: "You and Yuhe are sisters, and you are connected even if your bones are broken. You don't have to worry about fine clothes and food now, but my poor Yuhe is still suffering in prison. And now she is... still pregnant. She is young and naive, so it is inevitable that she thinks things willfully. Now she has been punished, you should take her out for the sake of her being your sister."
Is Lin Yuhe pregnant?
