Chapter 70.2
Anyway, he threw the bla to the eldest daughter-in-law, and if the son of the original owner couldnt co back, the eldest daughter-in-law wasnt sincere enough. If he did, it was the result of his guidance. Anyhow, no matter whether he could co back or not, he would be in the right.
These sches commonly used by those charlatans may not fool those dignitaries, but they can deceive the original owner, who has only dealt with woodworking all his life.
Sure enough, he believed this, but he didnt want his eldest daughter-in-law to kowtow. When he ca back, who only wanted to ensure his sons safe return. So, he announced that he would divorce his son and let his eldest daughter-in-law go back to her maternal ho.
The family was surprised. Although the original owner had always been biased and the eldest son had a thin relationship with them, the eldest daughter-in-law had been married for 7 years, did housework, and wait on her parents-in-law. Although she only gave birth to one daughter, it was also because they were only intimate once after marriage. No matter what aspect, she is impeccable.
Besides, in this world, if a woman was sent ho, she would be despised by everyone.
Driving people out, without a good reason. Isnt that a sin?!
The three sons and daughters-in-law, including the wife who never dared to speak loudly to her husband, couldnt help but try to persuade him. Even if he believed the fortune-teller, he could just have his eldest daughter-in-law kowtow a hundred tis a day. Why should they divorce her and send her ho?
The original owner was so angry that he fell to the ground on the spot. This instantly scared his wife, sons, and daughters-in-law who tried to stop him. Just when he wanted to drive away the eldest daughter-in-law for the smooth return of the eldest son, the eldest son ca back.
He gave him 1,200 silver taels and used this money to buy the years of upbringing and father-son affection.
After that, he went crazy.
If you were unkind to people who are good to you, then the people you were good to, would be unkind to you.
This was counted as retribution.
[Ding! Mission: Guard the Lin family. Asking the Host to complete the task as soon as possible.]
Lin Shiheng leaned against the wall to get a sense of his current physical condition.
Very strong, although he had beco a grandfather, he hadnt reached 45-years-old yet. In addition to the long-term work, and the fact that his family would eat less but would never short him, his health was much better than the rest of the village.
The reason for the coma is partly due to anger, and partly due to chronic anxiety over the late return of his eldest son.
Right now, is the ti when he got the result of the fortune-teller from yesterday. When he got ho, he was bent on driving his eldest daughter-in-law away. The family tried to persuade him, so he fainted in anger. The second son went to the county overnight to bring the doctor over. The doctor clearly said that there was nothing serious, but the original owner was slow to wake up. The whole family panicked.
If the eldest son hadnt co ho at this ti, the eldest daughter-in-law would have been thrown out of the house as the original owner had wished.
His hands clenched, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his ears twitched.
There was the sound of horses hooves trotting in, it seed that they had arrived.
At the next mont, the sound of horses neighing ca from outside.
The third son, who was chopping wood outside, rushed into the house with excitent on his face. Father! Eldest Brother ca back, Father. Eldest Brother ca back with many soldiers on horseback!
The whole family knew how much the head of the family loved his eldest son, because he had always been like this for as long as they could rember, there was no jealousy. They were just happy that their eldest brother ca back, their father wouldnt have to worry, and wouldnt think of driving their eldest sister-in-law away.
Lin Shiheng glanced at his silly son. His appearance was good. To be exact, the three biological sons of the Lin family were all good-looking. After all, the appearance of the original owner had always been good, and the wife he married looked okay. But it was obvious that the three sons all follow their father. its just that, their temperant was the sa as that of their mother, honest and gentle. Basically, belonging to the type that didnt have all the negative emotions that ca with working hard all their lives.
For example, right now. He was simply happy for the safe return of his eldest brother. It never occurred to him how much the eldest brother didnt see him as a younger brother.
Lin Shiheng looked back with a look of joy on his face. Quick, help
up. I want to see my son properly.
The third son happily helped him put on his coat, helped him out of bed, and excitedly went to the door. At the mont, the leader, Mo Chenke dismounted, frowning in disgust and standing at the door without going in.
The yard of the Lin family was still quite large. Although the house was a little shabby, the family was diligent and tidies up properly. Not only splitting part of the place to grow vegetables, but also raising chickens and ducks. Although the number wasnt large, but when they grew bigger, it was also an inco.
These chickens and ducks, which seed to represent money in the eyes of farrs, were disgusting to Mo Chenke, especially when he saw the pieces of chicken excrent on the ground, which made him even more unwilling to step in.
While he was waiting impatiently, a middle-aged man in the room, who was limping and supported by a tall man, looked at him red eyes full of excitent and shouted at him.
My son!!!
Youre back at last. Father has been so worried for the past 7 years, I was afraid that sothing happened to you. How co youre not coming inside when you ca ho? Co on in. Third daughter-in-law, hurry up and butcher the chickens. Cook them for my Guangyao, to nourish his body
Before Mo Chenke could speak, he heard the man in front, who he had been calling father for the past 20 years, rabbling on and on.
He frowned impatiently and dodged Lin Shihengs hand.
No need, I ca over today to say one thing.
As Lin Shiheng grew paler and paler in disbelief, he told him that he wasnt his own and that he had found his real father.
Guangyao. You youre not my child?
Hearing the commotion, the Lin family helplessly watched Lin Shihengs expression in receiving the heavy blow. His voice trembled, and his heart was full of shock.
No one knew better than them how much their father loved the eldest brother. but now, eldest brother wasnt fathers son?!
Mo Chenke looked at Lin Shiheng, but he didnt feel as distressed as the three sons. He frowned and spoke impatiently, Dont call
Lin Guangyao. I have changed back to my real fathers na.
The na Lin Guangyao was rustic and he disliked it. Every ti he was introduced to others, he always introduces himself with a courtesy na, and refuses to give out his real na.
(TNote: courtesy na = According to old tradition, after a man reaches adulthood, it is disrespectful for others of the sa generation to address him by his given na. So, they are given a courtesy na.)
But now that he had found his real father, was admitted back, and his father was the Third Prince, that will probably be the future Emperor. He would be the high above Prince. He had nothing to do with these lowly poor people who were already happy enough to eat a piece of at.
When these words ca out, Lin Shiheng, who was supported by his son, couldnt even stand up.
I, you
Guangyao, are you really not my own?
Really.
When he heard this word, his peach blossom eyes that chard countless won when he was young were instantly dim. Lin Shiheng, with his eyeful of sadness, murmured, Its okay, its okay
You found your real father, its a good thing
Father will still care for you like I did before.
Mo Chenke sneered. He still wanted to care for him?
What are you going to care with?
With clothes full of patches, or stop eating at for a month?
Since the age of five, when he learned that his real father was soone else, maybe even a big shot, he had been looking forward to finding his real father, and getting out of this poor house.
Now, he finally got his wish.
Unwilling to waste more ti with the unrelated father, Mo Chenke directly stated that since he had recognized his biological father, it was only natural for him to break off his relationship with the unrelated Lin family.
Of course, we were once father and son. I wont let you suffer. Co over, carry the silver.
Two boxes were carried up, Mo Chenke stepped forward and opened the box, revealing the glistening silver inside.
1,200 silver taels, enough for you to eat for a lifeti.
In this era, when 20 taels was enough for a well-to-do family to live a prosperous life, 1,200 taels for the Lins is simply being rich. The Third Prince has been fighting and conquering, and the silver in the city naturally belong to the new master, so they werent short on money.
This ti, knowing that his son was going back to sever ties with his adoptive father, he generously allocated 3,200 yuan from the private treasury, which was a token of his gratitude to the Lins for raising his son.
He was born as a Prince, and he never lacked food, clothing and worry-free. Naturally, he didnt think that there was any problem in this 3,200 yuan. Mo Chenke was always raised in the Lin family, and he knew that one or two pieces of silver were worth a lot to them, so he deducted 2,200 yuan on the way there, and only set aside 1,200 yuan. Anyway, for the Lins, 1,200 yuan was enough.
What Mo Chenke didnt expect was that Lin Shiheng never looked at the glistening silver, but stared at him with red eyes, I dont want silver, I just want my son.
After so many years of father-son affection, youre really just throwing it away?!
Mo Chenke didnt expect such a developnt. Lin Shiheng should have been very angry when he knew his life story. According to his plan, when Lin Shiheng was angry or couldnt help but curse, he announced that he would sever the father-son relationship, and making it seem reasonable.
Unexpectedly, Lin Shiheng still didnt want to give up his son, even after knowing that he had helped people raise their son for over 20 years in vain.
Was it because 1,200 taels couldnt satisfy him anymore because the son ca over with such a big entourage?
He didnt want to stay in this place any longer, so he simply turned, and got on the horse. He bluntly said, Now that I have recognized my biological father, theres no reason to be your son anymore.
If you wont be my son, what about your wife? What about your daughter!?
He didnt respond, but Mo Chenke looked ugly when he heard these things. If he had known that he was the son of the Third Prince, he wouldnt have listened to the Lins and married a peasant woman.
After finding out that the peasant woman gave birth to a daughter, the remorse in her heart beca even more obvious. Now, his biological fathers aning was very obvious. His father hoped that he can marry the Great Generals daughter who is very good at fighting. The General only had one daughter. If he could marry with her, all the military forces in his hands will beco his.
Thinking about it, how could the pampered daughter of a General marry as a concubine?
Therefore, the forr wife must be disposed of.
And the daughter he had never t.
