Chapter 168: Heart Fluttering
But when Jindou and Jinhoo eventually start their own families, Lady Lin is their birth mother, can she truly sever ties?
After they get married, if Lady Lin wants to come back and live comfortably as a mother-in-law, maybe looking after a grandchild, could they really turn their own mother away?
Why be so foolish as to suffer at the Wang Family?
This suggestion made Lady Lin waver a bit. She also knew that once the head of the household issue came up, Jindou and Jinhoo wouldn’t be thinking of marriage for a few years.
The main household would be short of a key laborer and would have an extra burden with a bedridden patient, indeed making life difficult in the future.
However, after thinking it over, Jindou and Jinhoo would be fine, being older, but Jinguan was still young. If their birth mother left, what would she do?
Upon hearing this, Eldest Sister-in-law Lin laughed, "What’s there to fear? Just say when you Divorse, you’ll take Jinguan with you! Nowadays, families that can’t have sons want to marry women who can bear sons. Even if they can’t, they’re happy to have a cheap son to carry on their name! Who wouldn’t want a free older son who could support them in old age after just a few years of care?"
Lady Lin had no idea such a strategy existed, and after hearing her sister-in-law’s words, her heart tilted back towards her own family.
Seeing his goal achieved, the Eldest Uncle Lin didn’t speak further, to avoid saying too much and making a slip—should he dampen Lady Lin’s spirits, it would be a poor deal.
