Chapter 21: Who is it?

Lin Zhenzhen's eloquence is not as good as Lin Yanyan's. She felt insecure and couldn't respond, so she anxiously stomped her feet, saying, "It's not like that, it's not like that..."

"Shut up." The old lady was almost driven to death by her.

She believes what Yan Yan said, but don't be fooled by Zhen Zhen's clever appearance. In reality, she has a foolish mind and is always suspicious due to her guilty conscience. She can never explain things clearly and only ends up making them worse.

Regardless of how Lin Yanyan's body detoxified, Yao Shi couldn't let Zhenzhen bear the blame for embarrassing the Hou Mansion. She said, "

Lin Zhenzhen couldn't help but nod. What her mother said was very true. She made a mistake because she was too surprised and nervous.

After giving it some thought, the old lady realized that Yan Yan's intentions for keeping the secret were questionable. Translation:

Lin Yannan sneered: "Second Aunt, I want to ask you about something. Why did you hire so many doctors for me, but my condition worsened over the two years of treatment? I managed to cure myself with a herbal medicine, so were those doctors quacks or is there another reason? I'm really confused."

Yao's face slightly changed: "Yao Yao, what do you mean by that?"

"Just the literal meaning," Lin Yannan replied indifferently.

"Second sister-in-law, I also feel that something is suspicious. It is puzzling to see such a simple treatment method fail for a highly skilled doctor," Zhou said.

"Younger sister, we are talking about serious matters now, please don't follow Yan Yan and disturb."

"Second sister-in-law, aren't I talking about serious matters? I think the most important thing right now is to find out why Yan Yan got sick, why her illness hasn't been cured for so long. This is a big matter concerning the reputation of our Hou Mansion. We must prevent others from misunderstanding that if big brother and big sister-in-law leave, certain people won't tolerate Yan Yan and Jing Yuan." Zhou Shi replied with a smile that wasn't really a smile.

She had long been disgusted by Yao's hypocritical face, but she knew that she couldn't compete with the Yao family. Besides, no matter what, her mother-in-law always sided with the Yao family. Fighting alone would be in vain, so she continued to endure.

But today is different. Lin Yannan's illness has improved, and she calmed down and dealt with Lin Zhenzhen in secret. In addition, she fiercely hit Yao's face. Her intelligence and courage far surpass Yao's. Zhou's family decisively sided with her. Besides, if she doesn't take the opportunity to put Yao in her place and vent all the grievances she has suffered over the years, she would be doing herself a disservice.

With the support of the three aunts, Lin Yannan's confidence has also grown. She said earnestly," Grandmother, I did have concerns about concealing the news of my recovery. I was just being cautious, fearing that someone might not want me to recover. I dare not take any risks."

"Yan Yan, I know that you resent me because of Lord Zhu's matter, and I don't blame you. But you can't let others manipulate you and deny the kindness I have shown you. After your parents passed away, I have always treated you as my own daughter... I swear to the heavens, if I ever have an ounce of intention to harm you and Jing Yuan, let me be struck by lightning." Helpless, Yao Shi made a desperate oath and cried in deep distress.

Zhou's conviction: Yao really knows how to speak, with just a twist of her tongue, she turns it into her stirring up conflicts.

Upon witnessing her mother being forced to make a solemn oath, Lin Zhenzhen couldn't help but sigh and say, "Lin Yanyan, you're truly despicable. You and your siblings are all despicable." Translation: Lin Yanyan, you're truly despicable. You and your siblings are all despicable.

The old lady's face turned cold: "Yan Yan, your words today have gone too far."

She couldn't believe that Yao, who had always been gentle and virtuous, would do such a malicious thing.

"Grandmother, I am just stating the facts," Lin Yanyan remained fearless, what does it matter if it's excessive? She had almost been poisoned to death by Yao.

"And you." Lin Yannan pointed at Lin Zhengzhen again. "I may be despicable, but what about you? You kept throwing flirtatious glances at Master Zhu, as if you were afraid that everyone wouldn't know about the deep affection between you two. You have no self-restraint and yet you blame me for making you lose face."

"I didn't..."

"No? If it wasn't because everyone couldn't stand it anymore, would they have booed at you? Not everyone is as shameless as you." Lin Yanyan mercilessly sneered.

"Enough." The old lady exclaimed angrily. "

Lin Yannan remained expressionless: "Grandmother, please don't let your anger towards Zhen Zhen affect your health. In the future, let her learn more from 'The Book of Women's Virtues' and 'Family Rules,' so as to avoid further embarrassment outside."

Lin Zhenzhen was on the verge of bursting into tears and cried out, "I don't want to live anymore, I don't want to live..."

"You've said that several times already," Lin Yanyan said coldly as she looked at Lin Zhenzhen.

"I said... enough." The old lady slammed her walking stick heavily, her face covered in dark clouds. She stared fixedly at Lin Yannan, squeezing out each word from between her teeth to ask, "

以前的晏晏温婉乖巧,便是对下人,一句大声的话都不会说,在她面前更是乖顺的像只兔子,而眼前的林晏晏锋芒毕露,说出来的话字字如刀。

这真的是她的孙女吗?

姚氏听老夫人问出这话,一时忘了哭,难道老夫人看出什么问题来了?

林晏晏笑了笑,笑容苦涩:“祖母,您以前最疼的孙女是我,可我病了后,变丑后,祖母连个笑脸都吝啬给我了,蓁蓁抢了我的未婚夫,我心灰意冷恨不得就此死去,祖母却连一句安慰的话都没有,只想着如何掩盖这桩丑闻,如何留住侯府的颜面,如何才能不得罪晋国公府……要不是三婶来安慰我,劝我,我都以为我已经没有亲人疼爱了。”

"Now my grandmother asks me who I really am, and all I can say is that I am someone who has died once, someone whose heart has been deeply hurt by so-called family members. Nobody cares about me, so I can only care for myself. A weak person can only be at the mercy of others. It is you who forced me to learn to be strong. Is this answer satisfactory to my grandmother?"

老夫人怔愣住,晏晏的指控让她无言以对。

是,她曾经最疼晏晏,晏晏是她的长孙女,又那么乖巧可爱,伯彦若不死,侯府的地位稳固如山,晏晏和朱子玉的婚事便是天作之合……可天有不测风云,伯彦死了,晏晏病了,成了那般模样,她还如何指望晏晏光耀门楣?

她是侯府长者,要顾着侯府颜面,想着侯府前程,她要主持大局。

她自认,在蓁蓁和朱子玉的事情上,她的处置方式没有不妥,但对上晏晏,终究是理亏的。

The old lady's sharp and fierce look gradually diminished, becoming dull and lifeless, as if she had aged a lot in an instant. She waved her hand dismissively, "Enough, enough, let's put an end to today's matter. I am weary, all of you may leave."

“祖母,难道就这么算了?”林蓁蓁不甘心,晏晏在祖母面前这么猖狂,连祖母都敢质问,结果祖母非但不追究晏晏的过错,治她一个大不敬大不孝之罪,还说算了,那怎么行?

The old lady glared at her angrily.

Lin Yannan bowed respectfully, "Then the granddaughter will take her leave. By the way, I forgot to inform grandmother that in a few days, the son of the Duke Chengguo, the young prince of the Pingnan Prince's Mansion, and the tenth prince will be coming to see Jingyuan."

Madam Lao was startled once again, What? The crown prince of the Chengguo Duke's family, the little prince of the Pingnan Wangfu, and the tenth prince all want to come and visit Jingyuan?

Yao Shi was also astonished, she didn't expect that Zhen Zhen and Yan Yan would attend the Peach Blossom Banquet together, one came back crying before the banquet ended, while the other managed to win over several powerful and influential noble sons for her younger brother... How come she gave birth to a daughter who is neither outstanding nor useful.
