Chapter 161 The Secret I've Concealed for 3 Years

In the Qingsong Hall, as soon as Mrs. Su's father and son left, Wen Lin also got up to leave, but Mrs. Hou let him stay.

Lin Tingyu's heart tightened. After all, Wen Lin was an outsider. He was told to listen to everyone's discussion about the remarriage of the eldest aunt. Should he be left to listen to the internal affairs of the family?

Lin Tingyu said: "Auntie, if we discuss matters between the elders, we juniors will step down first."

Madam Hou said softly: "You all stay here, I still have something to say."

Lin Tingyu couldn't help but glared at Wen Lin, and couldn't help feeling disgusted in his heart. He didn't know when Wen Lin had become so close to the Lin family that they couldn't distinguish each other.

Lin Tingyu remembered that the relationship between the Lin family and Wen Lin started with their three siblings, and gradually his grandparents were also seduced by Wen Lin.

Before he knew it, Wen Lin had already won the favor of everyone in the Lin family.Now that even the eldest aunt's private affairs are called Wen Lin, Lin Tingyu faintly feels that something is wrong.

Mrs. He asked several maidservants to replace the cold tea, brought hot soup, and after refilling the brazier with charcoal, Mrs. He retreated with the maidservants.

According to Madam Hou's order, no servants will be left in the hall.

Madam Hou also asked Luo Fu to close the gate of the mansion, and all the servants had to stay a hundred meters away from the Qingsong Hall, and they were not allowed to eavesdrop on what the masters were saying.

The servants naturally knew the consequences of eavesdropping and peeking, ranging from being poisonous and dumb to being beaten to death, so they all hid far away.

After everything was arranged, Mrs. Hou said solemnly: "There is one thing that I have kept in my heart for three years, and now it is time to explain it to everyone."

Lin Xingwei glanced at Wen Lin instinctively, Wen Lin frowned, and probably guessed what Mrs. Hou was going to say next.

Madam Hou also looked at Wen Lin, and said, "Wen Shilang, kneel down to the center."

Wen Lin lifted his clothes obediently and knelt down.

Except for Lin Xingwei and Wei Mingji who knew the inside story long ago, everyone in the hall was surprised and puzzled, not knowing what Madam Hou was going to do.

Mrs. Hou closed her eyes and meditated for a moment, took a deep breath, gathered enough strength and said loudly: "Wen Shilang is the parent and son left behind by Lord Hou, and his mother, Mrs. Wen, is the sister of Lord Hou's best friend Wen Sui. We got married and gave birth to a child. After returning to the capital, Master Hou lost contact with the Wen family. He didn't know that she was pregnant, so he married me. Mrs. Wen worked hard to bring up Wen Lin under the cold eyes of others. In the past 20 years, Wen's mother and son have suffered a lot. Fortunately, Wen Shilang strived for success, studied and became an official, came to the capital to meet relatives, and learned that Hou Ye's death could not prove his own background, so he concealed it until now."

After Madam Hou finished speaking, she was relieved.

"What what?" Taigong Lin yelled, "Mr. Wen is Huaishan's son?"

"Daughter-in-law, don't talk nonsense!" Mrs. Lin couldn't believe a grandson suddenly appeared.

Lin Huaiyue was stunned for a while and then murmured: "No wonder he looks like our Lin family. The eldest sister-in-law said that Wen Shilang is really exactly the same as the elder brother! I think when Wen Shilang came to our house to celebrate his father's birthday, the whole family was surprised His appearance, I didn't expect him to be the elder brother's son."

Mrs. Lin got up on crutches, walked tremblingly to Wen Lin's side, arched his waist and raised Wen Lin's chin, looked closely and carefully, and murmured: "Like, like, like..."

Madam Zhen saw that Lin's grandson was about to change from her son Lin Tingyu to this Wen Lin, she was startled and said, "Sister-in-law, the matter is very important, do you have evidence?"

Madam Hou looked at Lin Xingwei and said softly, "Ran Ran, go to my room, there is a blue brocade box in the dark compartment under the dressing table, take it here."

Lin Xingwei immediately got up to fetch it.

Lin Huaifeng frowned and asked: "Sister-in-law, you just said that you knew about Wen Shilang's life experience three years ago, why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"I don't mean to say that I have my own reasons. Three years ago, when Shilang Wen first came to the capital, he intentionally got close to Ran Ran. I asked my elder brother to check his details and found out that he is the son of Lord Hou. I was furious and shocked. Hou The master has no clear relationship with her and married me as his wife."

"Twenty years have passed, Lord Hou is also dead, and the illegitimate son came to the door suddenly, do you want me to recognize him for Lord Hou?" Mrs. Hou asked rhetorically.

"Then why is sister-in-law willing to talk now?" Lin Huaifeng asked again.

"Of course it's for Ran Ran, for Gu Yao," Madam Hou took a sip of the hot soup and stopped being angry.

He said gently: "Even though Master Hou did not do things properly and caused trouble, my aunt is good to me. Although my father is not forgiving in his tongue, he is kind-hearted. My aunt is kind and generous, and Ran Ran and Wen Shilang are deeply affectionate. Can make them sad because of their own selfishness."

"That's why I am willing to recognize Wen Lin and let him recognize his ancestor and return to his clan as Lord Hou's heir. This is the last thing I can do for the Lin family."

Lin Huaiyue frowned, and scolded Wen Lin: "Master Sui Wan, Mrs. Hou has already spoken, why don't you hurry up and kowtow to the elders?"

Wen Lin stood up and knelt down again: "The grandson has met his grandparents, the nephew has met his two uncles and aunts, and he has met... Mrs. Hou."

Wen Lin called for someone, but Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Lin still didn't dare to agree, and were stunned in fright.

In the past, Wen Lin followed the grandchildren of the Lin family to call Taigong Lin and Mrs. Lin grandparents, and the old couple also agreed very happily, but now they have become grandchildren, but they dare not answer.

Lin Huaiyue heyed happily, Lin Huaifeng was still a little displeased, and kept silent, the two aunts turned their heads and dared not look at Wen Lin.

Mrs. Hou said coldly: "Why are you calling me Mrs. Hou? I haven't remarried yet. I am the wife your father is marrying. You should call me mother!"

"Yes, mother... Mother." Wen Lin saluted Mrs. Hou in a shy way.

Mrs. Hou said again: "Wen Shilang, you can change your surname and enter the Lin family tree as a parent-child gift of the Lin family. For the reputation of Mrs. Wen and your father, don't say that you are a parent-child to the outside world, but say that you are my adopted son. The surname is still Wen to the outside world, do you have any objections?"

Wen Lin kowtowed to Mrs. Hou with tears in his eyes: "That's...very good, this junior has no objection, thank you mother for taking the trouble to arrange it."

Wei Mingji glanced at Wen Lin in disgust, and silently drank the hot soup in the cup.

Lin Xingwei brought the blue brocade box and handed it to his mother. Taking a sneak peek at Wen Lin's appearance, he knew in his heart that his mother had recognized him.

Madam Hou opened the brocade box in public, and inside was a letter written on silk and a jade pendant.

Mrs. Hou said: "This letter was written to me three years ago when I asked my elder brother to inquire about Wen Lin's life experience. The situation of Wen's mother and child is clearly written on it. Second uncle can read it to everyone."

Mrs. Hou handed the letter to Lin Huaifeng, and said: "You should know this jade pendant. It is the belongings of Lord Hou. Lord Hou gave Mrs. Wen a token in the past. Later, Mrs. Wen had a hard time, so she took this jade pendant as a gift. for money."

Mrs. Hou personally handed the jade pendant to Mrs. Lin. When she saw the jade pendant, it was as if she had seen her eldest son, and cried loudly, "This is from Huaishan. I gave it to him when he was studying, but it disappeared later. He Said he accidentally lost it..."

Mrs. Pei kept patting her back to comfort, and Mrs. Lin felt better.

Lin Huaifeng read the words on the silk in public, writing the past of Wen Lin's mother and son clearly, more clearly than Wen Lin himself knew.
