But on the surface, everyone is in a good mood.
"Xuehan and I called before, and we're about to arrive!" It was the old man's third son who said this, and today is his son Man Yue.
Said that Cao Cao and Cao Cao would arrive, and soon, Shang Baiqi was taken to the back house of the Lin family by unknown people. When he saw a large group of people sitting in the house, Shang Baiqi's eyes flashed, but he still pulled his daughter with a smile.
Say hello to this family.
Shang Qingqing and Lin Xuehan seemed to have found the backbone, and sat beside the Lin family. Shang Zhen followed Shang Baiqi dryly, which was really embarrassing.
But the people in this room are all smiling, they don't seem to treat you as an outsider, they look very affectionate.
Shang Zhen suddenly understood why the Lin family didn't greet the guests outside well and came here to do it.
"Son-in-law... Sit down!" The old man said with a smile, but he sat on the head without moving, only two small chairs were brought over. Shang Qingqing and Lin Xuehan sat beside him, and Shang Zhen and Shang Baiqi sat next to him. In the middle of the hall, there is a picture of a three-chamber tribunal.
Shang Baiqi was still smiling, "Why are you all here? Don't you need someone to greet you?"
The eldest daughter-in-law, Zhao Jing, said with a big smile, "There are juniors greeting you, it's time for them to exercise!"
Patriarch Lin nodded, "Yes, those are trivial matters. I called you here today because I have something to tell you..." He patted Lin Xuehan's hand beside him, and his voice sank.
"I heard that you want to divorce Xuehan?"
Although the previous business troubles have been suppressed, it is impossible for the family owner Lin to not know, but he pretends not to know, and looks like a loving father who is in the early stages of his daughter.
Shang Baiqi's face darkened, but he calmed down a lot after his anger, and in the Lin family, no matter how much he was dissatisfied, he would keep it in his heart.
"No... just a whimper."
The old man snorted, "It's good that you know, husband and wife get along, who hasn't stumbled yet? When it comes to divorce, it's a bit too much. Our Lin family has always been united, and there has never been a scandal like divorce!"
Shang Baiqi's face was ugly. Even a man couldn't bear to be taken directly into the house, especially when the Lin family shot him with such contempt... But he clenched his fist and held back. At this time, he could only be silent.
Shang Zhen, who was sitting beside him, couldn't help laughing. It was not the first time she had experienced this kind of battle.
The Lin family is domineering, plus the family is big and prosperous, and it is much stronger than the merchants!
Shang Baiqi was soft-hearted and soft-hearted. After more than ten years of training by Lin Xuehan, the merchant became more and more like an accessory of the Lin family. This kind of beating happened from time to time.
Seeing Shang Zhen laughing, Lin Xuehan's eldest brother, Lin Hanshi, snorted dissatisfiedly, "The adults are teaching the children to listen, what are you laughing at!"
His stern question came straight to Shang Zhen.
Lin Hanshi is Lin Wenfeng's father, and is now the pillar of the Lin family. His aura is much stronger than Shang Baiqi.
"What? I can't even laugh anymore?" Shang Zhen said softly.
She is different from before, in Lin Hanshi's eyes, she is rebellious! When will cats and dogs be able to talk back in front of him? He snorted disdainfully!
"Baiqi, I didn't tell you, what has Shang Zhen been taught by you? No respect, no manners, going out to let people know that she and Qingqing are sisters will be shameful to Qingqing! If you don't care, I will Take care of it for you!"
Shang Baiqi's face was even more ugly. He wasn't dead yet, and his brother-in-law was going to help him take care of his daughter? Is this more than just humiliation
However, the old man was very satisfied with the tone of his son's lectures, and said in deep thought, "I want to take care of it, Bai Qi, don't forget who helped your business in times of crisis? If it wasn't for Xuehan, your business would have collapsed long ago! Han worked hard and worked hard, and your daughter contradicted her at home! It really makes our hearts chill!"
Lin Hanshi replied, "Dad is right! Baiqi, you must have a conscience! I'm only in my forties, and I've already doubled my family business, what about you? You have no business acumen. Running up and down for you, your business still has the current glory? You are not grateful, and you want to get a divorce? You even allow your ignorant daughter to bully Qingqing? My Lin family is not dead!"
The other Lin family members watched the good show and did not speak, while Lin Xuehan pretended to cry and feel wronged, but in his heart he wished that the family members would be more powerful, so that Shang Baiqi would not have any desire to resist.
At this time, the eldest daughter-in-law Zhao Jing also said with a disapproving expression.
"Yeah, when the merchants were in trouble, if Xuehan hadn't used the Lin family's face to ask for help one by one, if it wasn't for the help of our old Lin family, who would have you today? And if you didn't lose your sense of proportion after drinking, Xuehan was broken. The reputation of our Lin family is not good, and we have to marry your businessman?"
The remaining concubine gradually unwilling to lose, said one after another.
"Yes, if it wasn't for Xuehan's sake, I wouldn't have borrowed money!"
"Xuehan is good at everything, but she is too strong and too honest. She doesn't know what to say when she is wronged. She works hard at home and serves a whole family."
One sentence after another made Shang Baiqi unable to maintain his smile.
But he remembered that it was indeed his fault that he had a relationship with Lin Xuehan after being drunk, otherwise Lin Xuehan would not have married him.
He also thought that after his wife died, the company was in crisis. If it wasn't for Lin Xuehan to raise money, he wouldn't be able to get through the difficulties, so he endured it, no matter how humiliated others were, he had to endure it!
Seeing that Shang Baiqi stopped talking, everyone was satisfied, and they came to pick Shang Zhen again.
"Shang Zhen, I didn't tell you, why didn't you call when you called someone? You don't even have basic courtesy. Is this your tutor?"
Lin Hanshi took a sip of tea, and the old god was there.
Shang Baiqi blushed, Shang Zhen doesn't like to be called, it's a personality problem, how can it become a family education problem? He wanted to defend his daughter, but he knew that it would backfire if he said it.
And what about Shang Qingqing and Lin Xuehan? Others insulted their father and husband like this, but they didn't say a word the whole time, happily watching the show!
This is what the Lin family keeps saying for you, family!
Shang Zhen smiled again, but that smile was much more complicated. Seeing the clown jumping over the beam in this room, he just thought it was ridiculous and hateful.
"Do you know what your attitude is?!" Shang Zhen's smile completely angered Lin Hanshi, and he slammed the teacup on the coffee table.
"Do you know that you are unfilial?! Your mother died when you were born. If it weren't for Xuehan, would you have a comfortable life today? But you are not grateful at all, and you don't know how to repent! In my opinion, you should be punished Bring it to the Lin family for good training!"
Maybe that's the point of the day, right? After listening for a long time, Shang Zhen finally understood their intention, and the smile on his face was even more mocking.
