Chapter 132 - 37: Sibling Affection
Lin Xiaofu was defiant for once. Not to mention the shock of the Lin Clan present, Zhu Fen was the most vehement in her reaction.
"Lin Xiaofu, what are you talking about?" Without caring about her fear, Zhu Fen’s eyes bulged with rage as she shouted, "Why should my own daughter be raised by someone else?"
In her heart, she thought that her eldest daughter was now irrevocably lost, and given that headstrong girl’s temperament, she’d likely never give her mother the chance to sell her for a betrothal gift. Zhu Fen was determined not to let her remaining two daughters escape her clutches.
Lin Xiaofu hung his head in silence, not uttering a word, yet his silence spoke volumes of his resolute decision.
"You speak so righteously, but when, aside from these two years, have you ever cared for a daughter?" Zhou Fengqin couldn’t stand this niece-in-law, "I’ve never seen such a heartless mother, treating her daughter like an enemy. No wonder you have no sons to this day; it’s clear you’ve accrued too much bad karma!"
Zhu Fen’s face twitched with anger, her expression turning fierce. "What did you say, old hag?"
The Lin Clan members around frowned. Lin Nianqiang stood with his eyebrows raised, saying, "See that? This is truly how my younger brother’s daughter-in-law behaves. What respect do you have for your elders?"
"Ah Fen!" Lin Xiaofu’s tone was reproachful.
