Family affection? Is it important to have rights?

Chapter 189 Argument

The four of them were all wearing dark clothes and came to Lin Xueruo's yard.

All I saw were two parties confronting each other in the yard. On one side, servants and maids were protecting Lin Xueruo and his children.

One group held torches and looked indifferently at the other side, with Xu Jingshu standing in the lead.

After hearing the footsteps, Xu Jingshu softened her expression and waved to them, "Jinfeng, Jinbai, Jinxi, Tangxi, come here quickly."

Lin Xueruo changed her usual soft image and looked at Xu Jingshu with hostility with a rare cold face, "What did you do to your husband?!"

"Husband? How dare you, a concubine, call the master husband? How rude of you!" Xu Jingshu said sarcastically as if she had heard a huge joke.

Lin Xueruo sneered, "My husband allowed it, so why are you going to deny my husband's decision?!"

Xu Jingshu's expression froze for a moment, then she relaxed and even smiled. "How could I deny the master's decision? But when he wakes up, he will only find that his mistress's residence has been flooded."

"And the arsonist will be your daughter, Mu Lianxue."

Xu Jingshu's tone began to become calm, and there was even a rhythm in her words.

But who would have thought that Lin Xueruo on the other side would grasp the point in a very strange way, "What did you do to your husband! He won't sleep at this time!"

Mu Tangxi had guessed it, so she was not surprised at all.

But Xu Jingshu didn't know, so she was stunned for a moment, "Of course the master will be fine, he is just tired during this period of time and needs to rest."

"As long as you all disappear, the master won't be as tired and headache as he is now!"

Lin Xueruo didn't believe Xu Jingshu's nonsense at all, but she also knew that Xu Jingshu hadn't taken any action yet, so she must have some needs.

She asked bluntly, "What do you want from me?"

The smile on Xu Jingshu's face froze. Why could she never guess what this bitch was thinking? !

She wanted to ask this bitch something before she died, and since the bitch mentioned it so quickly, she might as well save some words.

"When did you... meet the master?"

Xu Jingshu stared closely at Lin Xueruo opposite her, not missing any details.

Mu Tangxi and his eldest brother, second brother and third brother were watching the excitement from the side. Unlike Mu Tangxi, their focus was on Lin Xueruo and their mother.

Mu Jinfeng, Mu Jinbai and Mu Jinxi cast their gazes on Mu Lianxue and Mu Jinrong, their eyes filled with hostility, as if they couldn't wait to run over and take revenge.

Lin Xueruo was stunned for a moment, and then she actually laughed out loud, "You went through so much trouble just to know this?"

"Didn't my husband tell you that we are from the same hometown?"

"My husband and I have been childhood sweethearts. Both families have agreed that my husband and I will become husband and wife in the future!"

Her voice sounded with a smile, her lips full of teasing, and she looked at Xu Jingshu with disdain on her face.

It's like looking at a loser.

Lin Xueruo did not tell Xu Jingshu that she was called Yulang. This name was known only between her and her husband.

Mu Jinfeng and the other two looked at Lin Xueruo in surprise. Her father grew up with her, and they were childhood sweethearts?!

The two families also agreed on a marriage?

Then why did my father marry my mother?

I guess I don’t love you that much!

Xu Jingshu's hands slowly clenched, but at least they were covered by her sleeves; her breathing just became a little faster.

"Then why don't you get married?" she asked, grasping at straws.

The smile on Lin Xueruo's face gradually disappeared. She looked at Xu Jingshu coldly. After a long silence, she slowly said, "Because of you."

The voice was no longer as soft as before and became a little hoarse.

Xu Jingshu frowned and asked in confusion and vigilance: "What do you mean?"

Lin Xueruo looked at Xu Jingshu's genuine expression and asked in surprise, "You, don't know?"

"What should I know?" Xu Jingshu's brows furrowed more and more tightly.

Lin Xueruo: “…”

"My husband passed the imperial examination and became the top scholar, a very rare sixth place. Naturally, he attracted the attention of many people because he was so outstanding."

Lin Xueruo lowered her eyes and narrated the story calmly.

She said this so calmly because she had thought about it thousands of times: if her husband didn't get the first place in the imperial examination, if her husband didn't get the sixth place in the imperial examination, if...

Wouldn’t he be caught as a son-in-law from the list?

"And those ministers and officials in high positions all want to recruit him. In order to make a man loyal to them, what other method is there faster than letting their daughters marry him?"

"So he was chosen as a son-in-law from the list."

Lin Xueruo said calmly, but she raised her head abruptly the next second, "My husband was suppressed by your father's power and struggled for a long time, and finally had to agree!"

Her eyes were filled with resentment and disgust. If she had a dagger in her hand, she would definitely stab it into Xu Jingshu's body.

Mu Tangxi was very surprised. Did his father actually struggle?

Well, maybe her father left too deep an impression on her, so she forgot that everyone was young and immature at first.

So my father also had his struggles.

She was very curious about what her father was like at that time.

Mu Jinfeng and the other two had almost forgotten what they came here for and were immersed in their father's past.

What could be more shocking to them than finding out that their father has a mistress and children outside?

My father was forced to marry my mother!

This incident almost made their brains burn out. This sentence directly negated the cognition they had grown up with, and even completely reversed it.

Mu Jinrong and Mu Lianxue were also stunned standing behind Lin Xueruo. Their mother never told them so much detail, as if she didn't want to share their father's affairs with them.

Xu Jingshu was so angry that her hands began to tremble unconsciously. She immediately retorted, "Impossible! I met him once before we got married, and he said he fell in love with me at first sight!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the yard instantly became quiet, and even the sound of breathing was barely heard.

Mu Tangxi didn't expect that there would actually be people who actually believed in love at first sight.

To put it bluntly, love at first sight is lust at first sight, but in my father's case, he probably said that because he was threatened.

Lin Xueruo looked at Xu Jingshu with a very strange look, and finally laughed softly, "If you insist on thinking so, then why did my husband keep me?"

Yes, why?

Xu Jingshu's mind was full of what Lin Xueruo said. She really wanted to find a reason to explain it, but she couldn't find one.

Since the master is already the prime minister, he can certainly influence Lin Xueruo's family, who poses no threat, but he doesn't.

The master had been supporting them and even allowed Lin Xueruo to have two children.
