His Peasant Wife: Yao Ling [Part 1]

Chapter 95: Lin Jian's Past 3

*flashback*

"Because I love you!" The woman said softly.

She wouldn't deny her own feelings just because he made a mistake, but of course, it was because he fell into a trap and he didn't deliberately do it.

"If you abandon the kid, I will hate you! Because you kill an innocent baby..." Then she softened her voice, "I will love him even on your behalf when I get married into Lin Fu. The kid is the most innocent one here." The woman already made the decision so young Lin Zheng wouldn't be able to refuse and her reasoning was also reasonable.

Young Lin Zheng sighed and could only promise that he would take care of the baby as she wished.

The woman would take care of him after she got married to Lin Fu, after all, it was inappropriate for her to keep visiting Lin Fu when she was still a maiden. "What about the woman?" Young Lin Zheng wanted to know what she wanted him to do about the servant girl.

The woman's gaze hardened. If she loved someone, she would love him/her to death.

However, when she hated someone, she would also hate him/her to death.

This kind of calculative woman... she didn't want her to stay at Lin Fu and make trouble.

She didn't care if other people called her cruel, because this woman had crossed her bottom line.

This maidservant dared to covet her man and even drugged him. "Get rid of her after she gives birth to the baby! I don't care what you do to her, but I don't want to find her staying at Lin Fu after the baby is born."

She wanted to protect her man and also protect her own dignity.

Young Lin Zheng didn't find it too cruel and so he agreed with her arrangement.

If it was up to him, he would kill the woman already.

The maidservant was imprisoned inside a courtyard, but they did pay attention to her nutrition and gave her the best food.

All of it was only for the sake of the baby.

After the woman successfully gave birth to Lin Jian, she was kicked out of Lin Fu and went crazy because of it.

Young Lin Zheng didn't kill her because of his son... After all, she was still his son's birth mother.

Since the first time he laid his eyes on the boy, he fell in love.

He was really grateful to his sweetheart for protecting this baby.

-----
Yao Ying was quite surprised and admired the woman even more.

If she didn't protect Lin Jian, then he wouldn't be here today.

Yao Ying thought to himself. No wonder Lin Jian was really attached to the woman.

Yao Ying asked curiously, "Did she really dote on you?"

Lin Jian grinned and nodded. "She indeed did as she promised..."

Lin Jian told him that she only came every now and then just to hug and play with him when he was under three years old --- after all, she wasn't married yet.

This story was told by his wet nurse, so he truly believed in it.

After he was three years old, she married into the household and really treated Lin Jian as her own son.

Her presence even made his aloof father smile more and dote on him more. It was the happiest moment of his life.
