Chapter 350: The Bad-headed Male Protagonist: Reincarnated as the Ex-wife of a Poor Family’s Top Sch
Lin Shuwan sneered: "It must be because of what happened just now. I want to see what tricks he can play next."
However, Lin Shuwan did not get up and leave immediately, but continued to eat, drink and chat with her sisters until Bai Yunzhi sent a dozen people to urge them. Only then did Lin Shuwan leisurely take Chunliu, bid farewell to the sisters, and return to the Bai Mansion.
White House.
Bai Yunzhi's face was filled with anger. He paced back and forth in the hall, his brows tightly furrowed, and the anger in his eyes seemed to be bursting out.
Yuanniang sat quietly, her head slightly lowered, but the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a subtle sense of pride and sarcasm. Her eyes swept over Bai Yunzhi from time to time, as if she was very happy about his anger.
What Lin Shuwan did today would undoubtedly make his uncle, aunt, and cousin even more distant from the Bai family. They were just waiting for Lin Shuwan to come back and be severely punished by Bai Yunzhi's family!
Thinking of this, Yuanniang couldn't help but feel a surge of pleasure in her heart.
Hahaha, Lin Shuwan is such an idiot. She’s only been married for a few days and already she has lost the support of her parents-in-law and husband. How can she survive in the Bai Mansion?
Father and Mother Bai sat in the seats of honor, their faces as gloomy as the sky before a storm.
Bai's mother's tone was cold, and she rebuked mercilessly:
"This Lin is so ignorant! Since she has married into our Bai family, she is a member of the Bai family, and everything she has belongs to the Bai family! But she actually embarrassed her husband in front of so many people. She is simply uneducated! I wonder where she learned the rules for women!"
Father Bai's face was also very ugly, as dark as if water could drip out of it. He looked at Bai Yunzhi solemnly and said, "Yunzhi, you still need to teach your daughter-in-law a lesson. It's best to let her get pregnant so that you can better control her!"
Bai's mother nodded and replied, "After having a child, she won't have the energy to care about her dowry. Then we can take back the key to the household, and everything will belong to our family!"
Bai Yunzhi's pace almost faltered, he lowered his head with a gloomy look, and said in a deep voice: "Father, I know what's going on!"
Yuanniang's eyes swept across the faces of the three people, she sighed softly, and said tenderly: "Uncle, aunt, cousin, and cousin's wife may be confused for a moment, don't be too angry, don't get sick from anger!"
"But my cousin's wife is too ignorant. The shopkeeper of the Treasure Pavilion pretended not to recognize my cousin and yelled loudly. Many people heard it at the time, including the granddaughter of the Minister of Rites. If this gets out, it will definitely affect my cousin's reputation! If she is not severely punished, she will do something even more outrageous in the future."
Bai's mother slammed the table fiercely: "How outrageous!"
As she was talking, Lin Shuwan walked into the hall leisurely. She raised her eyes and glanced at everyone. A smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She bowed obediently and said in a gentle voice: "The daughter-in-law greets the father-in-law, mother-in-law, and husband!"
Then Lin Shuwan turned her eyes and saw Yuanniang sitting on the side. She said sarcastically with a slightly cold tone, "Didn't my husband say that my cousin was under house arrest? How come she came out after only one day of house arrest?"
Bai Yunzhi looked at her with an unpleasant expression, pursed his lips and said nothing.
Bai's mother slammed the table and stood up, "Lin, kneel down!"
Lin Shuwan's smile faded, and he said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone: "I don't know what my daughter-in-law did wrong, why do you want her to kneel down?"
Bai's mother was so angry that she was shaking all over. "You made Yunzhi and Yuanniang lose face in the Treasure Pavilion, and you still dare to quibble!"
Lin Shuwan looked at Bai Yunzhi in surprise, her eyes showing grievance, "Did my husband and Yuanniang go to the Treasure Pavilion? I was also in the Treasure Pavilion today, why didn't my husband go with me?"
"Cousin, it was my cousin who wanted me to go shopping with him. He said he made you angry, so he wanted to buy you a gift to make you happy! But he didn't know what to give you, so he lifted my confinement and asked me to go out with my cousin. This is all my fault, please don't be angry with my cousin!"
As Yuanniang spoke, her eyes slightly reddened, she bit her lower lip, and looked at Lin Shuwan with tears in her eyes, but there was clear sarcasm and complacency in her eyes.
Bai's mother was ignored by Lin Shuwan, who was still avoiding the question, sweeping the teacup on the table to the ground and angrily scolding:
"That's enough, Lin, stop making unfounded arguments. What does this have to do with Yuanniang? Yuanniang has been well-behaved since she was a child. You've only been married for a few days, but you can't stand Yuanniang and even let Yunzhi lock her up. It's abominable!"
"But you, you haven't answered my question just now! Is this how the daughter of the Lin family is brought up? I will go to the Lin family someday to ask my mother-in-law how she brought up her children!"
Lin Shuwan's face turned cold. She raised her chin slightly and said in a bad tone:
"What the mother-in-law said is true. My daughter-in-law did not see my husband and cousin in the Treasure Pavilion, so how can it be said that they lost face? If it is true as my cousin said, my husband went to buy a gift for me, then why didn't he tell me in advance, but went secretly with my cousin?
As for cousin Yuanniang, if she was really well-behaved, how could she stir up trouble between me and my husband and cause my mother-in-law to be so dissatisfied with me? "
"Not long after my husband and I got married, he took his cousin out to the streets and even met the granddaughter of the Minister of Rites and other noble ladies. They all said that my husband took his concubine to visit the mistress's dowry shop. If it were to get out that my husband favored his concubine over his wife, where would his daughter-in-law's face be? Where would the face of our Lin family be? This would damage the reputation of my husband and the Bai family!"
"Also, Treasure Pavilion is my dowry shop. From the beginning, there has been no rule of credit or accounting. Even my family members have to pay for the things they buy!"
Lin Shuwan slowed down, took a deep breath and continued:
"The Bai family was born in a poor family, and the assets in the family are insufficient. I can use part of the dowry to improve the lives of the people in the family, but it does not mean that some people can take it at will."
As Lin Shuwan spoke, he glanced at Yuanniang, hinting at something. Finally, his eyes fell on Bai's mother, who was pale with anger and on the verge of collapse. He raised the corners of his mouth slightly and continued:
"If my mother-in-law has any questions about my upbringing, I can ask my parents to come over tomorrow and discuss it with my mother-in-law and father-in-law. How about that?"
Lin Shuwan's words were sharp and powerful, leaving the four people in the hall stunned.
The four of them looked at her in shock and embarrassment, obviously unable to believe that these words came from Lin Shuwan.
It took a long time for the people in the room to recover.
Bai's mother was speechless for a moment, her face flushed red, she was shaking with anger, and pointed at Lin Shuwan: "You...how dare you be so presumptuous, come, slap me in the face!"
Bai Yunzhi's eyes widened with anger. He took a step forward and raised his hand to hit Lin Shuwan: "How dare you, Lin, you are too presumptuous!"
Lin Shuwan didn't dodge or evade, but looked straight at him, his eyes full of provocation: "Do you dare to hit me?"
Bai Yunzhi's hand froze in the air, but he finally let it go, gritting his teeth and saying, "Wan'er, you are really too presumptuous. You don't respect your parents-in-law or your husband. You are unfilial and unfraternal. Even if I report you to my father-in-law, I am still right!"
Yuanniang's eyes were red, and she said pitifully, "Yes, cousin, why are you so aggressive? My cousin and I are innocent, I just accompanied him to choose a gift for you. My aunt and uncle are not in good health, please don't make them angry anymore, okay? Yuanniang kneels down to you!"
Yuanniang didn't expect Lin Shuwan to be so eloquent. She bit her lip, knelt on the ground in humiliation, and a trace of resentment flashed in her eyes.
Father Bai had been silent the whole time, and now he slowly spoke: "Let's put this matter aside for now and discuss it later. Lin, you should stop being so willful and take good care of your husband and children. Yunzhi, you should have a good communication with Lin. Yuanniang will continue to be confined to her house."
Lin Shuwan bowed and replied softly, "Yes, that's what the father-in-law taught me."
Bai Yunzhi snorted coldly and walked away.
Lin Shuwan returned to his own yard.
As soon as she sat down, Chunliu came over and said with a worried look on her face, "Miss, you are so rude today, what are you going to do in the future?"
Lin Shuwan raised his lips into a confident smile, "What are you afraid of? They are in the wrong anyway."
Anyway, Bai Yunzhi is useless now, so she just has to wait for an opportunity. After Bai Yunzhi successfully changes his nature, she will disappear. By then, the Bai Mansion without Bai Yunzhi will be like meat on the chopping board, ready to be slaughtered by her!
Chunliu looked at Lin Shuwan in confusion. The young lady used to like her son-in-law. Whenever she mentioned him, she would be shy and her face would blush. How come it has become like this after only being married for a short time?
Chunliu sighed and said with eyes full of heartache: "Miss has been wronged!"
Lin Shuwan's mouth twitched and he didn't say anything.
At night, Bai Yunzhi came to Lin Shu's room again. He said with a dark face, "Ms. Lin, you went too far today."
Lin Shuwan said calmly, "My husband, I am just telling the truth. If you really care about me, why would you bring Yuanniang to my shop and buy on credit?"
Bai Yunzhi was choked and unable to speak, his face turning pale and blue.
After a long while, he said slowly, "Wan'er, I was not thoughtful enough about this matter. But you shouldn't talk back to your parents like this."
Lin Shuwan looked at him, "My husband, if they can understand the situation, I will naturally be filial to them. But how can I tolerate them bullying me like this?"
Bai Yunzhi was silent, as if he was thinking about her words. Finally, he sighed, "Forget it, let's end this matter here. From now on, you should control your temper."
Lin Shuwan nodded slightly.
Bai Yunzhi couldn't stay any longer and was about to leave when Lin Shuwan's eyes flashed with a gleam. She reached out to hold Bai Yunzhi and said with a charming smile, "Would you like to stay tonight? I'll serve you some hot soup."
Bai Yunzhi shuddered all over, and directly shook off Lin Shuwan's hand. He took a step back with a pale face. Seeing the other party's shocked expression, he took a deep breath and said, "I still have official business to deal with today, Madam, go to bed early!"
After he finished speaking, his face turned pale and he left quickly.
Lin Shuwan looked at Bai Yunzhi's embarrassed back as she fled, as if she would be pulled into the bed by her if she walked a step slower. It was so funny!
Chun Liu watched the whole process and saw Bai Yunzhi leave directly. She frowned and said, "Miss, today's incident still affects your relationship with the master! That's why the master will not stay overnight."
Lin Shuwan tapped Chunliu's forehead, sighed and said, "What do you know? Has your husband's tonic soup not been delivered yet? Go find a pretty maid and deliver it to your husband!"
Chunliu and Nanny Lin looked at Lin Shuwan in shock.
Lin Shuwan ignored them and turned to walk towards the bathroom.
Nanny Lin and Chun Liu looked at each other, as if they understood something!
……
Bai Yunzhi sat in the study, panting. Not long after he sat down, a beautiful maid came in with tonic. She was wearing thin clothes and had a charming figure. She said in a delicate voice, "Sir, I am here on Madam's orders to bring you today's tonic!"
"Put it down!"
Bai Yunzhi thought about the abnormality in his body and looked at the bowl of tonic in the maid's hand. He wondered if the medicine was poisonous and affected his body?
The pretty maid put down the tonic, twisted her slender waist, and walked slowly towards Bai Yunzhi.
Bai Yunzhi's mind was storming, and suddenly he felt his eyes darken, and a fragrant and soft body leaned against him. He frowned, and a feeling of disgust surged from the bottom of his heart. He pushed the pretty maid away fiercely. "
Bai Yunzhi stood up angrily and shouted, "Come here, drag this bitch away and beat her to death with sticks!"
The pretty maid fell to the ground with a thud, her eyes wide open in fear, and she cried out, "Sir, please spare me, it was Madam who asked me to come here!"
Bai Yunzhi's face became increasingly gloomy, and he snorted coldly: "Lin Shuwan, you actually used such means to test me!"
He ran straight to Lin Shuwan's yard angrily.
At this time, Lin Shuwan was taking a shower. The bathroom was filled with smoke. Seeing Bai Yunzhi rushing in with an angry face, she raised her eyebrows and pretended to be surprised and asked, "Husband, what's wrong with you?"
Bai Yunzhi gnashed his teeth and said, "You are still pretending to be confused! What is your intention in sending that maid to test me?"
Lin Shuwan enjoyed Nanny Lin's shoulder massage and said slowly, "My husband misunderstood. I just care about your health and asked the maid to bring you tonic. As for her behavior, I don't know."
Bai Yunzhi was so angry that he was shaking all over, but he couldn't do anything about her.
Lin Shuwan raised a barely perceptible smile and continued, "If you think there is something wrong with me, please speak up and we can discuss it."
Bai Yunzhi took a deep breath, suppressed his anger and said, "I hope you won't play these little tricks again in the future. I promised to give you only you in this life. Now you use a maid to test me, which really makes me feel chilled!"
After saying that, he turned his sleeves and left.
Bai Yunzhi returned to the study. There was still a lingering smell of blood in the yard. He was very upset and called his servant over, saying, "Prepare some water. I want to take a bath!"
The servant quickly responded, "Yes!"
Soon, the servant brought people into the bathroom carrying hot water.
The air was filled with hot steam. Bai Yunzhi stood in front of the screen and let the servant help him take off his clothes.
He couldn't stand the proximity of women anymore, so he had to let the servant help him take a bath, and he chose the most beautiful one in his yard!
But the servant was used to doing rough work and had never helped Bai Yunzhi take a bath.
When undressing, the servant's hands would occasionally scratch Bai Yunzhi's skin.
This made Bai Yunzhi's body tremble uncontrollably, red clouds appeared on his fair face, and his eyes and expression became extremely strange.
