Lin Taibai was so angry that his face turned green as he looked at her. As he heard her words, he really wanted to slap her awake. He casually swept a set of tea bowls of the blue weasels off the table.

When the tea bowl collided with the smooth floor, a crisp sound could be heard. Broken pieces of porcelain scattered all over the place. Wang Min Xiu was so shocked that she shrunk her shoulders and didn't dare to say anything more.

"Do you know who this little bastard is?" Grand Commandant Lin stared straight at her.

Wang Min Xiu was a little scared by his gaze. She shrank back her neck and bravely said, "?" No matter whose girl, could they even surpass you, a Grand Commandant? "

"Ignorant woman," Grand Commandant Lin glared at her before continuing, "This little beast provoked the eldest daughter of Scholar Han Lin Li Xiangnan. If it was a bystander, then it's fine too. But now this matter has made the entire officials gathered at the Ming River Restaurant aware, moreover it has caused quite a commotion. If His Majesty were to know about this, then I wouldn't need to be the Grand Commandant."

Wang Min Xiu became frightened after hearing his words. She looked at Grand Commandant Lin in a daze and asked, "Then what should we do?"

He had no intention to marry with Scholar Han Lin. Although Scholar Han Lin held an important position, he had no real power and could only be regarded as an official.

Moreover, his daughter was born from a concubine and was already engaged to a woman. Thinking about it, Lin Taibai immediately felt extremely vexed.

After all, Lin Taibai's son was also a direct descendant.

"What should we do?" Wang Min Xiu was so frightened by Lin Tai Ming's fierce voice that she stopped talking. She had never seen such a terrifying person like him before. Ever since she married him, he had never scolded her like this, not to mention that she gave birth to his son.

"I can only hurry over to propose and take the opportunity to suppress this matter. Otherwise, before the Lin Clan goes bankrupt." After he finished speaking, Lin Taibai seemed to be unwilling to look at her any longer as he walked outside.

Only Wang Min Xiu was left in the hall. She stood dumbly with her eyes wide open, maintaining the same posture as when Grand Commandant Lin left, as if she had not recovered from her shock.

"Madam, let's go back!" Wang Ma comforted her as she relied on her status as her bride-to-be.

Wang Min Xiu creased her brows and said to Wang Ma, "That Miss Li is only a concubine, how could she be compatible with my Hao'er?"

After listening to her young mistress' words, Wang Ma also slightly frowned. After thinking for a long time, she replied in a low voice, "This servant has heard that Miss Li and Vice Minister Cao's son, Lu Xinhai, are engaged."

"What?" Wang Min Xiu seemed to be surprised. She looked at Wang Ma with her mouth slightly open.

Li Wan Lan was originally just a small concubine. If Hao'er really did marry her and only felt wronged, but he didn't expect her to be engaged to him, he was momentarily astonished. He blankly stared at his closest mother, not knowing what to say.

"I have truly wronged Third Young Master." Everyone in the manor knew that the matriarch, the official wife of Grand Commandant Lin, Wang Minxiu, was deeply in love with this legitimate Third Young Master. This was why she was so spoiled by his tyrannical appearance.

"How could such a woman become the head lady of the Lin Clan? If not, I would have to look for the lord." With that said, he ran out in a hurry, and did not notice the vicious look that flashed in Wang Ma's eyes.

"Miss, the bath water has already been filled. It's best for Miss to first wash up to prevent the weather from getting cold." Yan Luo looked at her with a pampered expression. She tried her best to make her tone sound normal, so that her maids would not be able to tell what was going on.

"Mm. Alright." After a while, Li Die seemed to have realized something and nodded dumbly. She looked so hollow that it made people's hearts ache.

Yan Luo knew that the thing that its lady valued the most was family love. Now that the fourth lady had done something like this, how could it not be sad?! Therefore, in Yan Luo's heart, it hated Li Rou and Ping by quite a bit.

"Put your clothes on." Li Die forced a smile to her face, making herself look less bedraggled. On the contrary, he had a faint hope that he guessed wrong. His sister would not treat him so viciously. However, reality was often cruel and merciless.

"Miss?" Yan Luo slightly frowned. It was uncertain if the five ladies were doing well if she just barged in and questioned the four of them.

"No worries, come with me!" I always know why he harmed you. It's not like he wouldn't know how he died in the future. " Li Die's expression was too calm, she was no longer as heartbreaking as when she first found out. Although she didn't want to make the girl sad, she was even more worried now that she didn't seem to care.

Li Die was very clear about Yan Luo's thoughts. After all, she and him grew up together, so how could she not understand her thoughts! However, even though she knew her worries and her heart ached, she didn't have the energy to play around and comfort her.

"Good day, Fifth Miss." When the maidservants guarding outside the Flowing Cloud Pavilion saw that it was the fifth lady, they immediately lowered their heads and greeted with smiles.

At this moment, she felt powerless and unfamiliar as she looked at the usually familiar courtyard.

"Is Sister Four in there?" Li Die composed herself and forced out a smile. Yan Luo reached out its hand to touch her naked hand, giving her silent support and patience.

At this moment, she knew that she wasn't alone. She still had Yan Luo by her side, the person who had always been by her side taking care of her.

The maidservant did not seem to notice her change. A smile that was as usual appeared on her face as she replied in a clear voice, "Reporting to the Fifth Miss, the Fourth Miss is in her room!" However, such a bright smile was extremely dazzling in her eyes.

After slightly calming her mind, she slowly replied before entering the courtyard with Yan Luo under the young maid's confused gaze.

The courtyard was bustling as usual, but her temperament was no different from before.

Li Rou and Ping raised their heads when they heard the voice. When they saw that it was from her, a flash of disdain and contempt flashed through their eyes, but there was also a hint of surprise in their eyes.

"Sister Four, were you the one who drugged this shirt?" Li Die threw all her clothes in front of her.

Although Li Rou and Ping's emotions were quickly covered up, Li Die, who was attentively watching her, was able to see it clearly.

His heart was filled with dull pain, but he still stubbornly bit his lips and slightly raised his head to look at her, hoping for an explanation.
