The screams from a certain quarter have made the entire people in Lin residence alerted. Most of the servants hurriedly come with water as they heard about a fire in that quarter. Lin Yuan hurriedly goes towards the commotion. She doesn't understand what had happened.
The door opened and two people are rushing outside. Lin Yuan stared at the two of them with mouth opened wide. Can anyone tell me just what had happened here?
On her side, Lin San face paled as she yells, "Mother!"
Chun Maora clothes are a bit uneven since she was lying down before the fire happened. Her hair is also a mess with only a few makeups. Her face is pale when she notices the servants that have been gathering in front of her quarter.
Jo Han face looks even darker. He's sure that he had read the words correctly and the one who stays here should be Jun Hua. How is it possible that the young girl turned into an old hag? He certainly doesn't have any interest towards Chun Maora.
"What's with this commotion?"
Chun Maora face fell when she hears this voice. She recognizes this voice clearly. It's the voice of her husband. And she's right because she soon she her husband face. But when she sees his dark face, she knows that there's no way she could get out from trouble today.
She hurriedly kneeled, "My husband, this wife is innocent. I don't know from where this man appeared, but I truly don't know about him being here. Someone must have framed me!"
Jo Han wants to scream that he also doesn't know why he is in this woman quarter. He wants to see that pretty figure, but somehow got the direction towards this quarter. But seeing the dark face Lin Tang has shown and remembering his father reminder, there is no way he could tell the truth to them.
Lin Tang also feels suspicion, but he doesn't show it on his dark face. Who would feel good upon seeing his wife cheating? He stares at Jo Han who stands up like an idiot.
"So you're not satisfied with the arrangement until you come here? Guards! Throw this man out of this residence and tell the Jo family to forget about the marriage agreement."
"Wait, Prime Minister Lin Tang, this is a misunderstanding. I don't even know how I end up here..."
Lin Tang gives a deathly stare towards Jo Han, "So you're saying that you're sleepwalking inside my residence where countless servants are walking around?"
"That..."
Jo Han certainly cannot explain how he's here. If he were to say that he wants to visit Jun Hua, Lin Tang wouldn't let him go with only throwing him out. At best, he will be beaten black and blue to reason with Jun Zhenxian. He's not entirely stupid so he knows that there are some things he cannot do anymore.
Looking at the dark face of Lin Tang, he knows that the agreement will come to an end. After only a few minutes they reached the deal, he has to go and destroy it. Jo Han is indignant but there's nothing he could do as the guard throws him out of the Lin residence.
"Damn... father will be angry," Jo Han grumbled, "Whatever, I will enjoy myself first."
After Jo Han had been thrown out, Lin Tang focused his attention to his wife. He doesn't really believe that Chun Maora will ever cheat with that kind of man. But seeing the two of them in the same quarter is truly testing his patience. Even if he has suspicion, he will leave it for later.
"From now on, you cannot come out of your quarter for a month."
Chun Maora face paled. Ever since she's elevated to an official wife, when has she experienced this kind of treatment? She kneeled once again.
"This wife is truly innocent. Please believe me."
Lin Tang stared at Chun Maora coldly. The warm treatment he usually used towards Chun Maora has disappeared without any trace. The only one left is his cold and detached aura which completely suppresses Chun Maora. It is at this time Chun Maora finally remembers that her husband is not a nobody, he's an accomplished Prime Minister of Left in Ming Kingdom.
"Even if I want to believe you, I cannot erase what I have just seen," Lin Tang said coldly. He turned his head towards Lin Yuan mother, Concubine Sie. He remembers this woman quite capable and she has a daughter too.
"You will be in charge of this household for this month."
Concubine Sie feels overwhelmed by this sudden favor. She hurriedly kneeled and said her thanks with Lin Yuan stand on her side stunned.
After that, Lin Tang disperses the servants as he goes outside. The event from today has completely drained his energy.
"Yuan'er, now I can choose a better marriage prospect for you," Concubine Sie eyes shone. Although it's only a month, it's more than enough for her to pick a better husband candidate for Lin Yuan. With her in charge, everything will be smoother.
Lin Yuan nodded heavily. She glanced towards Chun Maora who had returned to her quarter with dark face. The fire is small and there's actually no need for such a heavy commotion. But this commotion has instead caused the favor Lin Tang has for Chun Maora to disappear.
By the side, Lin San face is dark. Everything has been planned carefully, why should an incident like this happen? With her mother is grounded, Lin San knows that she won't have any chance to make Lin Yuan life difficult. Although Concubine Sie also cannot make her life difficult, Lin San knows that during this time, Lin Yuan must be truly happy.
She truly wished that her brother was here. If Lin Hong is at home, he will definitely still able to talk his way towards Lin Tang to give their mother a better treatment. After all, Lin Hong is the future heir of Lin family. Unfortunately, at this important juncture, he's busy with the task he had at the academy and stays there for an extended period.
On the back, a figure stands calmly with two servants by her side. She smiled as she watched the events unfolded before her eyes. Not a single ripple can be seen from the calm face.
"Good work, Xia and Xiao Yun."
"Thank you Miss."
"We're only doing our work."
Jun Hua stared at the quarter with icy eyes. Inside her heart she says quietly.
'This is only the interest for what you did to my mother. But you don't have to worry because I will still let you enjoy your happy life for a short period of time.'
