Strict Wife Of The ’70s Manages The Household - Chapter 960
Old Man Lin said, “Although my mother has her own way of life, I think my daughters and sons-in-law are not bad. They live a good life, which is better than anything else.”
Old Lady Lin laughed at him, “If it weren’t for our Fourth son-in-law who made you proud, the old Tang family would have come to make you look bad. You might have scolded your daughter and told her not to come back in the future.”
Even though it was the truth, Old Man Lin didn’t admit it, “Not letting her come back would also be for her own good so that she won’t be bullied by the old Tang family.”
Although he was afraid of Old Man Tang, the latter didn’t dare to hit him. He would likely just come to act wildly.
Old Man Lin and Old Man Tang had some connections together. His grandmother’s family and Old Man Tang’s eldest aunt’s family were from the same village. Besides, Old Lady Lin had the same surname as the Tang family’s eldest aunt. At that time, Old Man Tang saw a little girl that was fair and pretty, paired with nimble hands and feet. Therefore, he wanted his eldest aunt to arrange a marriage for them. At the same time, Old Man Lin also fell in love with the same girl, though his mother had a sharp eye and was quick to act. As soon as she found out about her son’s intention, she immediately proposed marriage.
At that time, Old Man Lin was also a handsome young man of about 17 years old and he was a perfect match for the girl. However, Old Man Tang began to grow like a mutant at the age of 15, so by the time he was 17 or 18 years old, he grew even more burly. His originally handsome appearance became more fierce, which was a worse trait than being ugly, so the girl naturally looked down on him.
In this way, Old Man Tang always disliked Old Man Lin. Although they were not in the same village and did not visit each other, he often found fault with him when he was younger.
He was also determined to find a daughter-in-law who was better looking than Old Lady Lin, but it was not so easy to find one. In the end, he found the current old lady of the Tang family. Unfortunately, although she looked good, she caused a lot of problems. Their eldest son was actually almost ruined and spoiled rotten by her. Fortunately, Old Man Tang found out in time, and from then on, the son was under his care whereas she was allowed to take care of the other family affairs.
At least he had many sons, so he was held at a higher importance towards Old Man Lin, which made him satisfied.
In fact, Old Man Tang not only liked Eldest Brother Lin, but also Lin Lan. He thought she was beautiful and wanted to ask for her hand for his youngest son. He secretly asked someone to let the Old Lady Lin know about it, but the elderly couple decisively refused and resolutely did not let the children know.
Later, Old Man Tang changed his strategy and used some tricks to force his daughter to marry Second Brother Lin.
This time, seeing that Lin Lan was not just beautiful and reasonable, but neither was she overly humble nor arrogant, Old Man Tang felt an itch again. Thinking that it would have been great if she was his daughter-in-law, he went back and scolded his younger sons and nephews, “Look at how ugly you are!”
