The words of Lin Laoyao's wife were pleasing to the ear, but in reality, they were devoid of truth.
Previously, it was she who had urged Old Lady Lin to cut ties with their second household, to avoid bringing misfortune upon everyone. Old Lady Lin had indeed followed through, disregarding the difficulties faced by the second household. In truth, they had never lent a hand to the second household, who also never asked for any assistance.
The idea that Old Lady Lin relied on their youngest household for care was an absolute impossibility.
Old Lady Lin had a house and some wealth left by her late husband. She had more than enough to live comfortably without farming, leading a normal life in the village. She had no need for her sons' support, and aside from her eldest and second sons, the youngest son's family would never give her any money.
