Chapter 405

Seeing old lady Ling’s tired face, Sun said, “Granny has worked hard all the way, settle down and rest first!”

Old Mrs Ling was full of anxiety, how could she have the heart to rest, insisting, “I’ll go and see the oldest first

-Sun couldn’t argue with Old Mrs Ling, so she only agreed

When Old Mrs Ling wanted to visit Elder Master Ling, everyone else had to follow

A group of people almost filled the house, and all the serving boys were sent out

The old lady Ling looked at the sick master Ling, immediately from the sadness, and then thought of being locked up in the prison of the daughter’s life and death is not known, is the old tears: “My son ah!

How did you get so sick

And my poor daughter!

God is really unfair, let my children suffered this kind of suffering

This is plucking out my wife’s heart!”

When Old Mrs Ling cried, everyone in the room shed a tear

Master Ling also instantly shed a tear, called out for his mother, and then sobbed uncontrollably

In the midst of all the crying, Ling Jingshu’s calmness stood out

Li habitually tried to find fault and pick a fight, wiping her tears with a handkerchief while saying, ”Ah Shu, you girl, why are you so hard-hearted

Your aunt and her family are in trouble, aren’t you sad at all?”

Li’s mouth, Ling Fifth Master subconsciously looked over

Seeing Ling Jingshu’s calm demeanor and the lack of tears, he was really annoyed: “Ah Shu!

Didn’t you hear what your mother said?”I’m not deaf, how could I not hear”

Ling Jingshu replied back, “However, things have come to this, no one can save Auntie’s family

What’s the use of crying here!

It’s better to think about how to make some arrangements so that they can eat and live better in jail”

Ling Fifth Master choked on a breath that almost didn’t come up, “You

You disobedient and unfilial thing!

How dare you talk to me like this!

Climbed into a good marriage, waist pole is hard, do not put me this father in the bottom of the eye is it!

I will not spare you today!”

Without thinking, Ling Xiao stepped forward and blocked in front of Ling Jingshu, saying in a deep voice, “What Ah Shu said just now was not half wrong

It’s not right for father to blame A-shu just by listening to mother’s side of the story”

Ling Xiao had already grown to youthful stature, and was a good half head taller than Ling Jingshu

It was like a first-growth tree, sheltering the people behind him from the wind and rain

Ling Jingshu’s heart warmed as she whispered, “Ah Xiao, you don’t have to worry about me

I ask myself that I haven’t done anything wrong, and I’m not afraid of my father’s rebuke

Get out of the way, I’ll talk to father myself

-Ling Xiao didn’t move and said without looking back: ”Just stand behind me

With me here today, no one will ever bully you!”

Then, looking up at Master Ling Fifth, his gaze clear and firm, “Father, the Ministry of Rites sent over the auspicious date two days ago, A Shu will be getting married on the twentieth of November

Counting up, there are only two months left before she will be married off

These two months will also be the last time she stays in her mother’s home”I hope that Ah Shu marries happily, and that no one gives her a hard time at this time

If father insists on punishing her without asking, just punish me”Anyway, since we were young, we two siblings have been dependent on each other, and apart from our grandmother’s love, we’ve never known what it’s like to be cherished by our parents”

Ling Fifth Master:” “The last sentence was like a slap in the face, heavily slapping Ling Fifth Master in the face

Over the years, he had indeed been somewhat negligent towards these two children

However, he was a man, so he couldn’t stay in the inner mansion all day to take care of his children!

The affairs of the inner mansion should all be handed over to Li Father must feel that taking care of us should be stepmother’s business”

Ling Xiao no longer addresses his mother, but uses the nonchalant word stepmother, “Stepmother does a good job on the surface, but privately she doesn’t care about us siblings

I am blind and need someone to take care of me

Only A Shu cares for me, and my grandmother looks after me a little

Otherwise, I, the proper first son of the fifth house of the Ling family, would be a poor wretch with no one to look after me”When I came to the capital to cure my eye disease, it was also Ah Shu who accompanied me

My father had to stay in Dingzhou to take care of my grandmother and could not accompany me as a son

As a son, I would not and dare not complain”Now that my eyes are cured, I’m studying diligently in the State Prison, hoping to earn a future for myself in the future

I will also be able to become A Shu’s reliance

Father has never thought of doing anything for A-shu

All he thought about was whether or not he could get some actual benefits from this marriage”As for the stepmother, seeing A-shu with such a good marriage, she was afraid that she was unhappy in her heart

That’s why she’s looking for a bone in her egg, deliberately instigating from it

I can’t wait for father to fall hard on A Shu’s face!”I really don’t know if father is really confused or pretending to be confused

Can’t you see what’s so obvious?

Or is he just going along with it, taking this opportunity to pin down Ah Shu so that he can instruct her to contribute to his mother’s family in the future?”If it’s the former, I advise father to open his eyes in the future and not be easily fooled

Listening to a few flowery words and then angrily scolding us cools the hearts of our children”If it’s the latter, then it’s even more unnecessary

Ah Shu has suffered a lot these past few years, and after she marries, she’ll live some calm and peaceful days

If father wants to take the career path and wants to gain a foothold in the capital, it’s better to make your own calculations

Don’t count on your own daughter”

Master Ling Fifth’s face suddenly turned red and white

Li’s face was also embarrassed

The longtime shroud of shame had been uncovered so unceremoniously

She, the stepmother, was powerless in front of the accusations of the original first son

Ling Jingshu’s eyes had long been blurred with tears

That cowardly boy who used to hide behind her had already grown into a man who stood tall

In the past, she was the one who took good care of him

Now, it was his turn to stand in front of her, to fight for her, to shield her from all the storms

With this moment, it was worth it even if she gave more

Ling Xiao’s words clearly reached everyone’s ears

For a moment, everyone stopped crying

Even Old Mrs Ling, wiped her tears and opened her mouth before Master Ling Fifth could become annoyed, “Old Fifth, shut your mouth”What time is it now?

Family matters come one after another, our family should be united, with one heart and one strength

Don’t get confused at this time

Not to mention cooling the child’s heart, even I, as an old woman, don’t feel good when I hear it”

Ling fifth master resentfully stopped his mouth

Old Mrs Ling glared at Li again and scolded, “You also give me some peace and quiet

You’ve just arrived in the capital and you’re instigating Old Fifth to make trouble with his children

If you are like this again, you will go back to Dingzhou

Never come to the capital again”

Li Clan was scolded with a gray face, and lowered her head, no longer daring to say anything
