Chapter 1101: Being Beaten
Translator: Lonelytree
Hearing Lin Yuelan’s words, Mrs. Chen’s face turned pale.
Chen Shanbiao and his son’s expressions were also extremely ugly.
Mrs. Chen wasn’t stupid. She could tell that Lin Yuelan was already dissatisfied with her repeated contradicting and questioning.
She knew very well that if it weren’t for Lin Yuelan, her family would not still be alive.
It was because of her protection that the Chen family was safe and sound.
If Lin Yuelan suddenly gave up on them, then it was very likely that the Zhou Residence would make another move on the Chen Family tomorrow.
Therefore, at this moment, Mrs. Chen suddenly panicked.
Chen Shanbiao was also very disappointed in Mrs. Chen.
His face darkened as he said to Mrs. Chen, ‘I Lu Sanniang, you can go back to your mother’s house tomorrow for a while! ” Calling her by her name showed how angry he was.
Chen Yongfei was also disappointed in his mother. However, Mrs. Chen was his mother after all.
She was so careless because she was too worried about him.
Even so, he couldn’t just watch helplessly as his father chased his mother out.
Chen Yongfei sighed and said to his mother, ” Mother, don’t worry! No matter what kind of punishment Master gives me, even if it takes my life, it’s what I should bear. As long as a person made a mistake, they had to bear the consequences of their mistake and accept the corresponding price! Mother, you must be tired these days. Go home and rest well! Don’t think about anything else.”
Then, he kowtowed to Lin Yuelan and apologized, ” Master, my mother was too worried about me and lost her sense of propriety. Please forgive her this once! No matter whether their parents were right or wrong, as children, they had no right to judge. If Master wants to punish me, let me, this son, bear the responsibility for Mother!”
Mrs. Chen finally realized her mistake.
In front of the Chen family, she was the matriarch of the family, but in front of her master, she was nothing.
If it wasn’t for her master’s kindness, perhaps she would be worse than a dog now.
She wasn’t even a subordinate, but just a family member of a subordinate. If she contradicted and questioned her master again and again, anyone would be furious.
For example, if a servant contradicted her, wouldn’t he get angry?
Mrs. Chen immediately knelt in front of Lin Yuelan and kowtowed to apologize, ” Master, I was wrong! I’m really muddle-headed, that’s why I contradicted Master. If Master wants to punish me, then punish me. It has nothing to do with my husband and Fei ‘er!”
Seeing that Mrs. Chen had admitted her mistake, Chen Shanbiao and Chen
Yongfei heaved a sigh of relief.
Her mother finally understood.
Otherwise, if she continued to be so muddle-headed, they would probably really not know what to do.
After all, they had been married for more than 20 years.
Mrs. Chen knelt down and kowtowed. She even knocked on the floor with a bang, and blood slowly appeared on her forehead.
However, Lin Yuelan turned a blind eye to this scene and remained unmoved!
Chen Yongfei had been kneeling the whole time. Seeing his mother kowtow, he naturally followed suit.
At this moment, Chen Shanbiao also knelt down and kowtowed to Lin Yuelan. He said, ” Master, I know my wife was wrong. I don’t ask Master to forgive my wife’s ignorance and stupidity, but if you want to punish my wife, then let me bear it as her husband. After all, she made a mistake because I didn’t teach her well as her husband!”
For a moment, everyone in the hall could only hear the sound of kowtows.
Lin Yuelan finally opened her mouth after some time.
She waved her hand and the family of three stood up. ” Alright, all of you can get up!
“Thank you, Master!”
When the three of them got up, their foreheads were red and swollen.
Lin Yuelan turned a blind eye once again.
She said, “There’s nothing better than knowing your mistakes and being able to correct them! This time, I can forgive you! But there will be no next time. I hope you will remember this! Also, you must remember that I, Lin Yuelan, have many capable subordinates. The Gold Origin Auction House doesn’t need If you don’t listen to me and are too impudent, I can replace you at any time!
The last sentence was a strong warning!
The three of them were shocked.
They also realized that their positions could really be replaced at any time!
“This subordinate understands!” Chen Shanbiao and Chen Yongfei immediately replied, ” Don’t worry, Master. I will work for you with absolute loyalty. I will never have second thoughts! ‘
Lin Yuelan nodded. ” It’s good that you understand! As long as you are my people, I will protect you. If you betray me, don’t think that I’ll let you off!”
“This subordinate understands!” Chen Shanbiao and Chen Yongfei immediately replied.
After they answered, a man dressed in black came in from outside. He came to Lin Yuelan and called out respectfully, ” Master!
Lin Yuelan replied casually. Then, she said to the man, ” Take him away!
Someone brought Chen Yongfei away.
Everyone there understood very well that the man was bringing Chen Yongfei down to punish him.
However, Mrs. Chen did not dare to make a sound.
She could only watch helplessly as Chen Yongfei was taken away. She was so nervous that her fingertips pinched her palms.
Chen Shanbiao was equally nervous as he watched his son being taken away.
He didn’t know where his son was going and what kind of punishment he would receive.
However, no matter how nervous he was, he did not dare to ask.
Fortunately, Lin Yuelan seemed to be merciful and said to them, ” Don’t worry! I won’t take your son’s life. He would be taught a lesson so that he would not be swayed by his emotions and cause a huge disaster! Also, you won’t be able to see him for a month!”
Hearing Lin Yuelan’s words, Chen Shanbiao and his wife were slightly relieved.
In that case, Chen Yongfei might suffer some pain, but as long as he was fine, they didn’t care what kind of punishment it was.
Only Mrs. Chen felt upset at the thought of not being able to see her son for a month.
But she was already powerless to resist!
“Thank you, Master, for showing mercy!” Chen Shanbiao said gratefully.
However, Lin Yuelan reached out her hand and said, Don’t be in such a hurry to thank me! Things aren’t over yet.”
Chen Shanbiao was stunned. He looked at Lin Yuelan in confusion, ” Master,
Then, he thought of something, and his face turned pale. He said with a
panicked expression, ” Master, could it be…” Could it be that something more would happen with regards to Governor-General Zhou?
Lin Yuelan nodded at him before instructing, i ‘ Tell the people in the Gold Origin Auction House to behave themselves. If anyone comes to cause trouble, don’t say anything. Just get someone to beat them out!”
Lin Yuelan didn’t think that Zhou Anping would be willing to give her 300,000 taels to compromise.
Since his target was the Gold Origin Auction House, he might stir up some trouble within these three days.
Therefore, it was better to let Chen Shanbiao be mentally prepared.
Chen Shanbiao also realized the seriousness of this matter. He lowered his head and said respectfully, ” Yes, I will take note!
Lin Yuelan nodded and said, ” Okay, then you may leave!
Chen Shanbiao and Mrs. Chen left Lin’s Garden.
As soon as they left Lin Garden, Mrs. Chen, who had been holding it in, asked worriedly, ” Old Master, will Fei ‘er be alright? What kind of punishment would take a month? Will Fei ‘er lose an arm or a leg, or will Fei’ er be forced to do manual labor or something?” Mrs. Chen imagined a series of crimes that Chen Yongfei might suffer.
Chen Shanbiao furrowed his brows tightly, his eyes sharp. I believe that Master’s punishment is appropriate. As for you, why were you acting up in front of Master? This time, if it wasn’t for Master’s kindness and generosity, perhaps our Chen family would have suffered another disaster, do you know
He could not question Mrs. Chen in front of Lin Yuelan just now.
Mrs. Chen immediately lowered her head guiltily. Her eyes were a little dazed as she defended herself, “I … I was too anxious to protect my son and said the wrong thing! Old Master, I know I was wrong. Don’t hold it against me, okay?”
Chen Shanbiao’s face darkened as he said in a deep voice, ” Madam, we’ve been husband and wife for more than 20 years. How can I not tell if what you said is true or false? You’re clearly not telling the truth now. Tell me, what is the reason that gives you the courage to provoke and question Master again and again?”
Mrs. Chen knew that she couldn’t fool Chen Shanbiao. She looked at the door of Lin Garden behind her and said unhappily, “You’ve been mentioning this master endlessly. I thought this Master was at least a middle-aged woman in her thirties or forties. However, looking at her today, she was such a young woman with such a beautiful appearance. She was simply born to seduce men. Didn’t you see that our Fei ‘er’s eyes lit up the moment she saw her? Her eyeballs were almost glued to her body.”
It turned out that all of this was because his wife was jealous.
However, this jealousy could very well bring disaster to the Chen family.
However, what did her master look like have to do with her? She actually had the courage to contradict and question her.
Chen Shanbiao’s expression changed drastically. He raised his hand and hit his wife for the first time in twenty years.
