"bride price?"

Looking at the dozens of big red boxes piled up in the yard, the old lady felt that she had heard wrong.

Generally decent people will not only give these betrothal gifts.

"It's the betrothal gift, mother, you heard me right." Lin Pingan replied in a low voice.

When the old lady heard this, her complexion changed drastically.

The cup in his hand was placed heavily on the table.

"The unmarried women in the family, except for Xi'er who has a marriage contract, she is not yet married."

"Who are you accepting the bride price for?" the old lady asked.

Facing the old lady's questioning, Lin Pingan obviously lacked confidence.

"Mother is confused. I am Ziyan's father, so I am naturally the bride price for her."

As soon as Lin Pingan finished speaking, the old lady looked at him angrily.

He raised the cup in his hand and was about to throw it at him.

"Mother, mother, calm down!" Lin Pingan said while hiding aside.

Seeing this, Qiu's mother persuaded: "Old madam, don't get too angry."

"Second master sitting like this may have his intentions."

"Old Madam, don't hesitate to listen to what the Second Master has to say." Qiu's mother reassured the old lady and persuaded.

In fact, I was very dissatisfied with Lin Ping'an.

It's okay for the second master to be confused on weekdays, but now he is actually confused about Miss Ziyan's lifelong affairs.

No wonder the old lady was so angry!

Qiu's mother persuaded, but still did not persuade.

The old lady threw the cup in her hand towards Lin Pingan viciously.

With a bang, the teacup shattered at Lin Ping'an's feet.

Lin Pingan looked at the broken cup on the ground with lingering fear.

Seeing this, Qiu's mother knew that the old lady still had reason.

After all, he was thinking about the second master and didn't hit anyone.

Qiu's mother helped the old lady to sit down and poured another cup of tea for the old lady.

The old lady calmed down some of the anger in her heart, and looked up at Lin Pingan sternly.

Lin Pingan knew he was wrong, so he stood aside, not daring to speak.

Seeing his cowardly appearance, the old lady became very angry.

How did she give birth to such a useless son!
"Tell me, what's going on?" the old lady said in a deep voice.

"it's actually really easy."

Lin Pingan smiled and approached the old lady.

Then seeing the teacup in the old lady's hand, she stopped her steps abruptly.

"It's the young master of Wu An's family, who has always loved Ziyan."

"Master Wu loves his son and is eager to find me. I think that Mr. Wu can be regarded as a good-looking talent, and he is worthy of Ziyan."

"I agreed without authorization." Lin Pingan said.

"Confused!" The old lady was furious after hearing this.

"Then who is Wu An, don't you know!"

"He is the prime minister's most loyal lackey, how can you marry Ziyan to his son!" The old lady glared at Lin Ping'an.

"Wu Yu has always liked Ziyan, and he will treat Ziyan well."

Lin Pingan said disapprovingly:
"My son thinks that Ziyan picked up a bargain. Mother, you don't know about Ziyan's body."

"You can get this marriage, what are you not satisfied with?" Lin Ping'an asked.

"You still have the face to ask!"

The old lady stood up and brushed away the supporting hand of Qiu's mother.

He picked up the feather duster used by the maid on the table, and hit Lin Pingan.

The prayer beads in the old lady's hand jingled in the house following her movements.

"Mother, if you have something to say, why are you making a move!" Lin Pingan said while avoiding it.

The feeling of being hit by a feather duster is not pleasant.

He didn't expect his mother to attack him even at this age.

From the corner of the eye, she saw the maid who was peeping outside the house, her face became extremely ugly.

Mother Qiu was afraid that the old lady would fall, so she hurriedly stepped forward to hold the old lady and said:
"Old lady, old lady, calm down."

The old lady leaned against Qiu's mother, panting for breath.

Lin Pingan hid aside and tidied up his clothes.

Some displeased said: "Mom, I am now a father, why are you so quick to do it?"

Lin Pingan felt that the old lady had made him lose face.

"It's still easy for me to hit you!" The old lady said, "Look at the stupid things you did!"

"Stupid?" Lin Pingan refused to accept, "Mother thinks Wu Yu is not good enough for Ziyan?!"

"Is this something worthy or not?"

The old lady really wanted to knock his head open to see what was inside!
"You go and return the dowry now." The old lady said directly.

Lin Ping'an was naturally unwilling when he heard the words, if he retreated.

It's not just Ziyan's marriage that will be withdrawn, it will also close the door for him to seek refuge with the prime minister.

He managed to see hope quickly, and this matter must not be abandoned halfway.

"Mother, now the son can't even make decisions about his own daughter's marriage, can he?!" Lin Pingan looked at the old lady and asked.

"Second! Do you even know what you're doing!"

The old lady slapped the table hard several times with her hand.

"Ziyan marrying into the Wu family is no different from going to die!" the old lady asked loudly.

"Your elder brother is now relying on the Regent, do you think the Wu family will treat Ziyan well?"

"Also, why do you think the Wu family wants to marry you? Is it really because of what you said you love your son?"

"If that's the case, why didn't Wu An mention anything about it when your eldest brother was serving the prime minister before, but why did he mention it to you now?"

"Have you ever thought about this?" the old lady asked sharply.

Lin Pingan was speechless when asked.

It's not that he didn't think about it, he just didn't dare to think too clearly.

Otherwise, he was afraid that he would be ruthless.

"Mother, elder brother has already been dismissed." Lin Ping'an reminded.

"Furthermore, Ziyan's life is not long, and the Wu family will not treat her badly just for the sake of face." Lin Pingan said.

"Life is short!" the old lady said angrily, "Is this what your father should say?"

"You're just kidding yourself!"

The old lady said solemnly: "What do you mean by saving face? There are too many ways to torture people behind the scenes!"

"Don't you have the heart to suffer for Ziyan?!" The old lady said with tears in her eyes.

"You are pushing Ziyan to the fire pit!"

"What does mother mean by that?"

Hearing that the old lady was coming, the second lady who hurried over heard the words and asked.

"Yuru, why are you here?" Lin Pingan walked to the second lady and asked cautiously.

The second lady looked at Lin Ping'an and asked seriously:
"What did mother mean by what she just said?"

"Nothing interesting." Lin Pingan said, "You are still pregnant, so don't worry about it so much."

"How can I not worry?" The second lady brushed Lin Ping'an's hand away and said, "Ziyan is my daughter!"

"Mother, can you tell me?" The second lady walked to the side of the old lady while holding her stomach.

The old lady knew that she couldn't hide it, so she said:

"Second brother, tell me about the stupid things you did yourself!"

"me."

Lin Pingan looked at the eyes of the second lady, and didn't know how to speak.
