Seizing Beauty ( mtl)

Chapter 25: Quarrel

  The rain is like mist and crisp. In the early spring in the imperial city, the weather is rarely so rainy. The cold spring rain seems to be mourning the separation of the heartbroken mother.

  Mrs. Hou looked at Lin Ying, who had been crying for a long time because she had not slept all night. Her face was haggard and pale, and her eyes were completely dark. Finally, she couldn't help but feel the tip of her nose again.

  Reaching out to hold Lin Ying's hand, Mrs. Hou's voice unconsciously contained some uncontrollable sobs: "Ah Ying, take good care of yourself in Lizhou. It's bitterly cold in the ancestral hall. Don't get sick..."

  Lin Ying Looking indifferently at her mother in front of her, she saw her eyes were red and filled with tears. She suddenly turned her head and said in a bad tone: "Mother came to see me off just to say these useless words, then my daughter will leave first."

  Hearing Lin Ying's words, Mrs. Hou opened her lips slightly, as if she wanted to say something.

  However, Lin Ying never gave her this chance, so she turned around and left, hurriedly getting on the carriage in the rain, her somewhat thin figure stubborn and indifferent.

  Ever since she was little, Lin Ying has never left Mrs. Hou's side for more than half a decade.

  At this moment, Mrs. Hou's heart was as sharp as a knife and she was deeply nostalgic, and she couldn't help but shed tears.

  Looking at the carriage gradually disappearing at the end of the corner, Mrs. Hou couldn't help but think of what happened last night. She felt heartbroken and regretted that she had not taught Lin Ying good character.

  The night was as dark as ink, and the ancestral hall, which was becoming increasingly cold and gloomy, was filled with transparent lights.

  While she was crying, she choked angrily and said: "Since you are treating me like this because of that wild girl Lin Luan, stop pretending to be disappointed and in pain with me. From now on. From now on, you will only have one niece, Lin Luan, and no more daughter, Lin Ying."

  Lin Ying was still stubborn, and she didn't seem to think that she had done anything wrong, which made Marquis Boning feel like his heart was being twisted.

  Mrs. Hou looked at Lin Ying who was kneeling on the ground with a cold expression and pursed her lips without saying a word. Her eyes were red and she asked with a trembling voice: "A Ying, what did you do to A Luan in Xiangguo Temple?" What?"

  Her mother's sad and disappointed eyes fell on her, making Lin Ying feel flustered and angry at the same time. She raised her head and looked at Marquis Boning and Madam Marquis in front of her with tears in her eyes. She choked back and said, "Don't my parents already know what I did? Why do you still come to ask me?" After a pause,

  Lin The tears in Ying's eyes were like broken beads, falling continuously.

  He looked at the tearful Lin Ying in front of him, wondering when the girl who he and his wife had held in their palms like a jewel since childhood turned into such a savage, vicious, arrogant and domineering person.

  Marquis Boning was so heartbroken that he couldn't help it. Looking at Lin Ying, who looked sad and angry and obviously unrepentant, he raised his hand and slapped Lin Ying.

  Lin Ying never expected that her father would slap her, and neither did Mrs. Hou. There was a "pop" sound, and Lin Ying was slapped to the ground. She covered one cheek and looked in disbelief at the sad and heartbroken Marquis Boning in front of her.
    "Master Hou!"

  Fearing that Hou Boning would continue to take action, Mrs. Hou subconsciously stepped forward and blocked Lin Ying, who was half-crouching on the floor tiles, with tears glistening in her eyes.

  Marquis Boning pointed at Lin Ying who was lying on the ground sadly, and saw that her cheeks were swollen due to his slap. He couldn't help but burst into tears and said in a choked voice: "It's all because of my fault in teaching my daughter, and I'm too pampering towards you." , will teach you to become such an unscrupulous and evil-minded person."

  Lin Ying looked at her father whose face was full of grief and disappointment. She recovered from the intense disbelief and saw the face of Marquis Boning. There were tears on his face, and he suddenly let out a cold sneer, looking dismissive and indifferent, but the tears still couldn't stop sliding down his cheeks.

  After hearing her sneer, she cried and retorted with contempt: "Dad, stop pretending to love me so much. If you really love me, after knowing that I have been there since I was a child, How could you still agree to the marriage between His Highness Prince Anping and that wild girl Lin Luan when you have always longed for His Highness Prince Anping? For the sake of a niece you haven’t seen for many years, you ignore the infatuation of your own daughter. Admit it, you are just a pretending hypocrite. !"

  After hearing Lin Ying's rebellious words, Mrs. Hou turned around. Out of grief, anger and disbelief that those words were actually coming from Lin Ying's mouth, her voice was trembling, and her eyes when looking at Lin Ying seemed to be... Look at a stranger you never knew.

  "A Ying, you... you are confused! Do you want to betray the entire Lin family for the sake of His Royal Highness Prince Anping, who has never had any affection for you?"

  Mrs. Hou knelt down and shook Lin Ying in great pain. On his shoulder, he persuaded helplessly and sadly: "His Royal Highness Prince Anping just won't get engaged to Ah Luan, do you think he will marry you? Ah Ying, wake up, you don't know the current situation of the Hou Mansion. "?"

  Lin Ying's face turned pale, and only the palm prints on her cheeks became brighter and brighter. She shook her head and cried: "Mother and father never met before they got married, and now they are not deeply in love as husband and wife. In this world, My marriage is the fate of my parents, the words of the matchmaker, and the good relationship between the two surnames. If you don’t agree with the marriage between His Highness Prince Anping and Lin Luan, what can His Highness Prince Anping do? In the end, you are selfish and only want to be a marquis. She is trying to climb a high tree, but she refuses to fight for even a little bit for me..."

  Looking at Lin Ying in front of her who was stubborn and unruly and sad and angry, Mrs. Hou still refused to give up and wanted to continue to persuade her.

  However, Marquis Boning behind him suddenly stretched out his hand and helped Mrs. Marquis up who was crying heartbrokenly.

  After suppressing the tears on his face, Marquis Boning supported Mrs. Hou who was crying and said sadly to Lin Ying, who was still kneeling on the ground: "A Ying, you are really obsessed." Lin

  Ying wiped her face with her sleeves. tears, unwilling to be outdone, he wanted to continue to refute, but Marquis Boning seemed to be exhausted both physically and mentally.

  He no longer wanted to engage in these meaningless verbal disputes with Lin Ying. Instead, he helped his wife, who seemed to have some strength only relying on himself at this moment, to leave. Then he ordered to his servants: "Lock the third girl to Fangfei." Go to the hospital and send her back to the ancestral hall in her hometown in Lizhou at Mao tomorrow. From now on, she will not be allowed to step out of the ancestral hall without my order, let alone come back!" [
