Transmigration into a Book: My Lord, Your Wife Has Taken Another Concubine for You

Because of her mother's antics lately, Lin Jiangzhuo is no longer afraid of getting married, and sometimes she even starts to look forward to it.

Lin Jiangzhuo felt that with her current mindset, she would sometimes take her anger out on her two younger brothers.

However, the three siblings do have a good relationship, but Lin Jiangzhuo sometimes just can't control his emotions.

Lin Jiangzhuo thought that things would be fine once she got married.

Once she's married, she can no longer see how well her mother treats her younger brother, nor will she unconsciously care about how her mother treats him.

They wouldn't always try to find evidence to prove that their mother treated all three siblings the same.

Fearing that her daughter might cause a scene today, Madam Han didn't bring up the topic again. Instead, she instructed Lin Jiangzhuo on how to address and thank the clansmen when they met.

Lin Jiangzhuo remained silent for a moment before adjusting her mindset and becoming a proper noblewoman.

Lin Yanran spent a long time having tea with her father in the front courtyard of the Imperial Son-in-Law before making a brief appearance in the back courtyard of the Princess.

After all, she's already here, it would be impolite not to show up.

As for why Lin Yanran was accompanying Lin Fuma for tea, it was because Lin Fuma brewed the tea, and Lin Yanran was responsible for drinking it.

Although Lin, the imperial son-in-law, said it in a harsh way, he still doted on his children quite a bit.

As for the next generation, Lin Fuma doted on his eldest granddaughter, Lin Jiangzhuo, but treated the rest of his children almost the same.

Therefore, when Lin Jiangzhuo got married this time, the dowry that Lin the Imperial Son-in-Law prepared for his granddaughter consisted of large items such as shops, estates, and houses. Lin the Imperial Son-in-Law did not plan to give them to his eldest granddaughter in advance.

Lin, the imperial son-in-law, planned to give the land deed to his granddaughter when she returned to her parents' home. After all, the land deed didn't take up much space, and his eldest granddaughter could just leave it anywhere and take it back with her.

Lin, the imperial son-in-law, did this to guard against Han, even though as a father-in-law, it was not appropriate for him to have contact with his daughter-in-law.

But having lived in the same mansion for so many years, he roughly knew what kind of person Han was.

Anyway, Han was very willing to spend money on her eldest granddaughter's expenses through Zhonggong's account, but she was reluctant to spend money on her dowry. Over the years, Han hadn't been seen buying anything nice for Lin Jiangzhuo from her private treasury.

More importantly, when his grandsons got married, Lin Fuma did not intend to provide any extra gifts, so he was even more determined not to let his two daughters-in-law know.

Lin, the imperial son-in-law, felt that he was somewhat cold-hearted. He only cared about his own children, and as for the next generation, he could only say that he was powerless to help them.

With the Princess and Madam Han and Madam Yang in the Princess's residence, Lin Yanran doesn't need to handle anything.

So Lin Yanran had lunch at the Princess's residence and then took Chu Yunxuan back home, planning to return the day after tomorrow when she would officially get married.

However, when Lin Yanran left, she privately mentioned to the Princess that she should take a look at her niece Lin Jiangzhuo's dowry.

My niece, Lin Jiangzhuo, is going to marry into the Zhenguo Duke's mansion, and she'll be marrying the heir apparent. She'll be the matriarch of the family, so if her dowry is too small, she won't be able to keep her sisters-in-law in check.

The eldest princess wasn't stupid. After all the relatives and friends who had come to offer their dowry had left, she deliberately kept her eldest son and daughter-in-law behind. She smiled and asked her eldest daughter-in-law, Han, with concern:

"Zhuo'er is getting married the day after tomorrow. Have you and your eldest son prepared her dowry?"

Although Han felt a pang of unease, wondering why her mother-in-law was suddenly concerned about her daughter's dowry, she thought that she hadn't mistreated Zhuo Yatou at all, and that all the money from the family coffers had been given to her.

As for the extra money her husband gave her, it's all for their children anyway, so it doesn't matter who gets it.

Having convinced herself, Han suddenly felt righteous and said, "Mother, don't worry, your daughter-in-law has checked it several times, there won't be any mistakes."

The eldest princess gave Han a suspicious look, then said calmly, "Bring me the dowry list so your father and I can take a look and see if anything is missing."

Madam Han hesitated before advising, "There's no need to look at it! I've been managing the household for so many years, doesn't Mother trust her daughter-in-law?"

Seeing his eldest daughter-in-law's attitude, Lin, the Imperial Son-in-Law, understood everything. His face darkened as he looked at Madam Han, "If your mother tells you to get it, then get it! What are you dawdling about? Does your mother think she can't order you around?"

When Han saw that her father-in-law was angry, she didn't dare to say anything and quickly ordered someone to fetch it.

After the servant brought it over, Prince Consort Lin was the first to reach out and take it, flipping through it. After a quick look, he sneered and handed it to the Princess next to him.

When the eldest princess opened it, she was so angry she laughed.

Although this dowry was not bad, it was not on the same level as that of a member of the imperial clan. Apart from the dowry from the public funds, the eldest son and his wife contributed only rags and rags, which were even less than what the second son's family contributed!

The eldest princess threw the dowry list directly at her eldest son, Lin Fengyu's, face. "Eldest son, take a look! I'm not even dead yet! And you've already fallen on hard times?"

Seeing his mother and father like this, Lin Fengyu thought he was already mentally prepared. He felt that at most, his wife hadn't given his daughter much.

Lin Fengyu took it and nearly fainted from anger. "Han, explain yourself! What happened to what I added for Zhuo'er?"

Seeing that her husband was truly angry, Han quickly explained, "Those things are kept here with me! Zhuo'er is a bit loose, so I plan to keep them for her first and give them to her later."

I am Zhuo'er's biological mother, how could I possibly want her?

Besides, Zhuo'er's dowry is quite substantial.

After saying that, Han silently added in her heart that it was much thicker than her dowry back then.

On the surface, Han was still crying and sobbing as if she had been misunderstood and felt wronged.

Lin, the imperial son-in-law, found this fool annoying. "You're even envious of your daughter's dowry. Your Han family has really fallen from grace, raising such a shallow-minded fool like you."

In the past, Han Shi found it quite satisfying to hear her father-in-law scolding others.

But when the flint fell on her, all she could see and feel was how ugly she looked.

Seeing the humiliated look in Han's eyes, Lin, the Imperial Son-in-Law, said speechlessly, "You made such a mess of things, and you can't even handle a few words of criticism?"

The Princess never expected that Han would withhold her own daughter's dowry. "Han, I entrusted you with the management of the Princess's residence because I trust you."

But you have disappointed me. From now on, you will no longer be in charge of managing the Princess's residence!

Han didn't hesitate and readily agreed.

Han only coveted her daughter's good things; she never touched anything belonging to the household, nor dared to.

She was never harsh on anyone else, not even the illegitimate sons in the Prince's harem, so of course she wasn't afraid to hand over the power to manage the household.

The eldest princess is already quite old and doesn't want to have to manage her son's wife anymore; she only has her eyes on her eldest son, Lin Fengyu.

"I will not concern myself with your personal affairs. However, if Zhuo'er is to be married the day after tomorrow and her dowry is displayed like this, it will embarrass me. Your entire family will be kicked out of the Princess's residence."

After the eldest princess finished speaking, seeing that Madam Han and Lin Fengyu were still standing there without moving, she said in an unfriendly tone, "Get out!"

Han and Lin Fengyu politely bowed and took their leave.

As the eldest princess watched her eldest son and daughter-in-law walk away, she felt so angry at her two unfilial sons that her heart, liver, spleen, and lungs ached.
