Buddha-like Mrs. Lin

Chapter 31

Jia Su and her husband rushed to the antechamber and waited for a while before Mother Lin arrived, escorted by several maids.

The three of them exchanged greetings for a while before Mother Lin sat in the main seat. The head maid beside her quickly served tea to Jia Su.

Jia Su held the tea and knelt down, "Please have some tea, mother-in-law!"

Mother Lin's gaze swept over Jia Su and she nodded with satisfaction. After drinking the tea, she took out a thick red envelope from another maid's tray and handed it to her, "Live well with Ruhai in the future and give birth to a fat child for the Lin family as soon as possible."

Jia Su took it with both hands and respectfully complied. Then she got up and returned to her seat.

Then, Lin Ruhai stepped forward to serve tea, "Mother, please have some tea!"

"Good, good, good!" Mother Lin drank the tea and looked at Lin Ruhai with a smile. Her face was full of gratification. Her son had finally grown up.

After thinking for a while, she reminded Lin Ruhai in front of Jia Su, "You'll be living with your wife for the rest of your life. You have to treat her well."

Lin Ruhai's mind flashed with last night's scene. His face flushed red as he nodded.

Mother Lin looked at his dark red face and smiled with understanding. It seemed that the young couple had a very happy time last night.

She was relieved, "Although taking in concubines is common, I still want you to promise me one thing."

"Mother, please say it."

"For seven years, regardless of whether there's news or not, you're not allowed to add another person to the inner courtyard."

Mother Lin originally planned to forbid her son from taking in concubines for three years. However, she thought of the agreement she had with the Jia family. After Jia Min married into the family, he was not allowed to take in concubines for seven years. She was worried that Jia Su would find out and affect their relationship. Thus, she decided to treat everyone equally and even cut off the possibility of her son touching other women.

Ruhai was a man of his word. If he promised, he would not violate it in the future.

Lin Ruhai thought of how when his father was still alive, his mother had shed tears for his father's love for his concubines. In the end, she became numb to it and was almost like a stranger to his father. He felt sad.

When she thought about how Jia Su would treat her the same way in the future, she felt even more uncomfortable and naturally agreed.

On the other hand, Jia Su was surprised. She looked up at Mother Lin and found that she was looking at her with a loving smile.

She thought about it for a moment and realized that he wanted her to relax and focus on having children for the Lin family.

This point was also confirmed during breakfast later.

Because the Lin family did not have any clansmen from the five servers, the initial tea ceremony became much simpler.

After that, Mother Lin got someone to send breakfast over.

Mother Lin and Jia Su sat at the same table, while Lin Ruhai sat alone.

Jia Su got up and prepared to serve Mother Lin.

Even though he was grumbling in his heart, this was the rule of the ancient times. Without the ability to change the rules, he could only abide by it.

However, Mother Lin once again unexpectedly waved her hand to stop her. "We're all eating as a family, there's no need to be so particular."

Because there were only the two of them in the Lin family, they had always eaten together. Now that there was Jia Su, there was no difference.

After Jia Su sat down, she smiled and said, "In the future, you two can eat breakfast in your own rooms. When it's time for lunch and dinner, you can come over to eat together. There's no need to specially come over to pay your respects.

Husband and wife should get along well … "

After breakfast, Jia Su and Lin Ruhai returned to their own courtyard happily together.

When they were outside the courtyard, Jia Su naturally had to consider Mother Lin's impression of them and couldn't act too out of line. However, when they were in their own courtyard, Jia Su relaxed.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, she reached out to hold Lin Ruhai's hand.

As long as one of them wasn't ugly to the point of infuriation, the newlyweds' impression of each other was the highest. If she couldn't develop feelings for Lin Ruhai during this period of time, Jia Su felt that she could basically give up on the idea of dating in ancient times.

After all, she was a scientific monk who didn't know much about literature. There really wasn't much to talk about with Lin Ruhai, who was a pure liberal arts student. There was completely no possibility of them developing a "mutual understanding", gradually deepening their feelings for each other, and finally becoming lovers.

Moreover, she wasn't a traditional virtuous wife and loving mother, nor was she a love-struck fool who was willing to sacrifice everything for love. This also cut off the possibility of moving Lin Ruhai and making him fall in love with her.

However, Jia Su didn't expect that as soon as she touched Lin Ruhai's fingertips, he quickly dodged.

She tilted her head to look at him and found that Lin Ruhai's eyes were wandering. He quickly put his hands behind his back and strode in front of Jia Su.

Then, his serious but somewhat embarrassed voice reached Jia Su's ears. "Ahem, we're still outside. We can't do such immoral things."

If she ignored the tips of his red ears, Jia Su might have believed his nonsense.

Jia Su narrowed her eyes and said in an ambiguous tone, "Immoral?"

Without waiting for Lin Ruhai to react, Jia Su walked past Lin Ruhai and angrily walked away.

Lin Ruhai was stunned by Jia Su's decisive action. His heart ached and he felt a little uncomfortable.

At this time, Lin Ruhai was still young and didn't know how to hide his emotions. At the same time, because of his lack of experience, he couldn't maintain his composure even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him.

He stood in place and waited for a while. When he saw that Jia Su had no intention of stopping to wait for him, he felt a little wronged.

However, as the head of the household, he couldn't reveal his feelings in front of the servants. He could only keep a straight face and pretend to unintentionally quicken his pace to catch up with Jia Su.

Jia Su heard the footsteps, but didn't turn around to look at him.

Lin Ruhai: "…"

Lin Ruhai deliberately increased the speed of his footsteps. The sound of his footsteps could be heard clearly.

Jia Su still didn't pay attention to him.

Lin Ruhai paused and carefully glanced at Jia Su's expression. When he saw that she didn't seem to be angry, he quietly reached out and tried to grab Jia Su's hand.

Jia Su broke free and looked back at him. "Didn't you say it was immoral?

What are you doing now? "

At the side, Chi Xia and Cui Yan were so anxious that their eyes widened. They couldn't wait to rush up and stuff Jia Su's hand into Lin Ruhai's.

However, at this time, they didn't dare to make a sound. They could only be anxious.

Lin Ruhai felt his face burning, but he wasn't stupid. He could clearly see that Jia Su was falling for this trick. How could he be stupid enough to give up just because of a slip of the tongue?

He didn't give up and reached out his hand again …

However, she shook his hand off again. Lin Ruhai's expression suddenly collapsed.

In the end, Jia Su grabbed Lin Ruhai's hand. Before he could react, she smiled and led him back to the courtyard with satisfaction.

She knew it. How could a young Ruhai who hadn't been completely brainwashed by feudal chauvinism not give her face when they were newlyweds?

Jia Su walked in front and didn't notice Lin Ruhai's expression. If she turned around, she would definitely see that Ruhai's face was dyed red again.

His eyes were bright and smiling, making people feel happy just by looking at him.

Then, he seemed to have thought of something. The hand that Jia Su was holding moved and hooked her palm.

Jia Shu turned around abruptly and happened to meet his somewhat complacent eyes.

Lin Ruhai didn't understand the purpose behind Jia Su's actions these past two days, but his male instinct made him subconsciously want to take the initiative in their relationship.

In the end …

Jia Su's eyes were like hooks. When she looked at him, her gaze was burning. Very quickly, he shed his armor and was utterly defeated.

He quickly turned his head away under Jia Su's gaze.
