Madam Yin was more perceptive and quicker to react than Yin Bohong.
When the servants came to report that the Shen family had arrived, she knew that Shen Lingxia must have reconciled with her family, which meant that they could no longer bully Shen Lingxia as before.
Madam Yin chuckled dryly and said to Shen Wei and Madam Wen, "Bo Hong is a straightforward scholar, not good with words. Please don't take it to heart, in-laws. However, the Yin family does have this rule: women are strictly forbidden from staying out all night, even when visiting their parents' home. Besides, Lingxia didn't inform us beforehand; she just slipped away secretly. Anyone would be suspicious..."
Madam Wen sneered, interrupting Old Madam Yin.
“Your Yin family has really strict rules! But our Shen family has its own rules. A married daughter is still our daughter. She can come back whenever she wants, and she can stay overnight at her parents' home if she wants. She doesn’t need anyone else’s permission! So, Madam Yin, would you like to discuss with us whose rules should be followed?”
Both Madam Yin and Yin Bohong's faces turned faintly green.
The Shen family is using their power to forcefully suppress them!
Now that things have come to this point, do they still dare to insist on punishing Shen Lingxia according to family rules?
Although the Shen family is engaged in martial arts and the Yin family in literature, it would be easy for the Shen family to cause trouble for the Yin family!
Old Madam Yin gritted her teeth secretly, forcing a smile: "That's not necessary. Since Lingxia is going back to her parents' home for the night, then let it go. But a country has its laws, and a family has its rules. In the future, she should still inform us beforehand, so as not to worry us if she goes missing..."
As Madam Yin spoke, she was already plotting bitterly in her heart.
Shen Lingxia was, after all, a daughter-in-law of the Yin family. Once she married into their family, she was expected to put her husband first and serve her parents-in-law. No matter how powerful her own family was, it was limited and they couldn't extend their reach too far into the Yin family.
Even if she can't openly confront the Shen family, her in-laws have plenty of ways to deal with their daughter-in-law behind the scenes...
Shen Lingxia interrupted Madam Yin and said coldly, "Does Madam know why I suddenly returned to my parents' home? It's because I discovered a secret of Yin Bohong that has been hidden for more than ten years, and none of you have ever told me a single word about it."
Madam Yin and Yin Bohong's expressions changed drastically.
Yin Bohong was especially panicked: "What...what secret?"
Shen Lingxia glanced at Yin Bohong: "Feixu Lane, the last small courtyard at the end of the lane, your Shuang'er and Hancheng."
Yin Bohong's face turned deathly pale, and he was so shocked that he took two steps back.
"You...how did you know?"
He then flew into a rage: "How dare you follow me? And how dare you spy on Shuang'er?"
Shen Lingjun sneered: "You kept a mistress before you got married, and your child is already over ten years old. You still can't let anyone find out? For the sake of your mistress, you haven't touched your wife for more than eight years of marriage. You are practically a model of fidelity. Shouldn't we give you a memorial arch for your chastity?"
Yin Bohong's face turned pale and then purple, filled with panic and anger, and he couldn't say anything for a moment.
Shen Lingjun was not about to give up.
Shen Lingxia has been suppressed in the Yin family for many years and is used to swallowing her anger. She can't muster her fighting spirit for a while, so let her speak on Shen Lingxia's behalf!
"If you don't share a room with my second sister, how will she have children? You all blame her for not being able to conceive, and even bring her mistress's child home, lying that it's a child from a collateral branch, forcing her to adopt it as her legitimate son! What a clever scheme! Such shameless things, if said anywhere in the capital, would be met with spitting in disgust! Is this the kind of family tradition of the Yin family? You're all scholars, and after all these years of studying, you've learned such despicable and disgusting tricks?"
