Chapter 65: Chapter 65 Too Precious_1

“Your words make sense, so I’ll keep this promissory note. I think your aunt must be nice too and will surely look out for her nephew.” Zhao Lan usually had no conflicts with the residents of the old Zhao family house, and she often took advantage of Zhao Erhu, which led Zhao Jingen to be on her side and gave him the misconception that his older sister, despite being domineering and bossy, had a good heart.

“Of course, my aunt and your father are good siblings; how could she not care for you?” Lin Yue said insincerely, her face genuinely beaming with joy. Now there would be an interesting drama to watch. Wei Family, you and your son plotted against my husband so much, this is just a little payback for now. I hope you’re not too disappointed, oh.

“Erhu, don’t spoil your wife too much. It’s just a minor injury; she’ll be fine after lying down for a couple of days. There’s no need for a doctor or medicine, just wasting silver coins like this is too extravagant. Even if you have the money, you shouldn’t use it like this, let alone borrowing silver. Isn’t this ruining the family?” Taking the promissory note from Zhao Erhu, Zhao Jingen didn’t forget to needle Lin Yue a few times before leaving. Lin Yue didn’t bother with the old fool Zhao Jingen, but she gave Zhao Erhu a sharp glare and went inside the house.

Finally getting rid of the visitor, it wasn’t Erhu’s fault for having such a father. Touching his nose, Zhao Erhu tried to appease Lin Yue,

“Niuniu, don’t listen to Dad’s nonsense. My treasure of a wife, whom I’ve finally married, of course, I have to pamper her. What others do is their business, but why did you give the promissory note your aunt made to Dad? The Wei Family mother and son are not to be trifled with, they’re purposely scheming against us.

From childhood, I suffered a lot because of them. It only got better once we broke away and lived far enough that they couldn’t reach us. Yet they always think of ways to take advantage of me every now and then. I can’t turn them away completely because of Dad, but each time I fob them off by giving them some copper coins. This time it’s three taels of silver. If we let them succeed, it will only make them think we’re easy to bully, and they’ll become greedier.”

If it weren’t for his wife speaking up, Zhao Erhu wouldn’t have brought out the promissory note and gone against his wife’s wishes. Now that Zhao Jingen had left, Zhao Erhu thought Lin Yue didn’t know the true natures of the people at the old house. To prevent his wife from being deceived by them and going soft-hearted by his father’s words, Erhu shared some past events with her so she’d be wary of them in the future.

Lin Yue already knew about some matters between Zhao Erhu and the old house’s people from the children, and even if she didn’t know, she was well aware of the typical stories of stepmothers and stepsons. She glanced sideways at Erhu,

“Brother Erhu, do you really think your wife is foolish? Your stepmother managed to push your father to drive you out penniless; she’s not an easy person to deal with. Plus, your stepbrothers from her always have schemes in their eyes. They’re clearly up to no good. You think I’ll let them take advantage?”

“Since you knew, then… I understand now!” Zhao Erhu’s mind clicked, and he burst into a happy laugh. It wasn’t that his Dad was forgetful; he just hadn’t thought about it that way before. Now that he realized, he found his wife to be very smart.

Lin Yue lifted her chin proudly, “You just wait and see. That silver won’t be so easy to get. Your aunt is unruly and unreasonable, and your stepmother seems virtuous but is cunning and vicious inside. Both are after money, and when they clash, there will be a good show to watch. Didn’t your father scold you for being unfilial to your aunt? I want to see, if their sibling affection is genuinely that strong, whether they’ll really disregard everything.”
