Lin Jinyan smiled obediently in reply and led Lin Jinyun around a bit to leave Tingyu Pavilion.
Although Lin Jinyun didn't know why Lin Jinyan wanted to take a detour, he thought it would be a good idea to take this opportunity to meet Zhou Yuexue since he hadn't seen him for a long time, so he didn't ask any more questions.
Walking not far from Tingyu Pavilion, Lin Jinyun raised his head and looked forward, hoping to see the figure who had been thinking about it day and night.
When Lin Jinyan found out, she remained calm and deliberately slowed down her pace.
"Brother, my grandmother loves my cousin the most. Yan'er is thinking about calling her cousin too, and we can all go and beg for mercy. I think it will be easier for my grandmother to agree."
Of course Lin Jinyun was happy to hear it: "It's better this way."
Lin Jinyan walked to the lotus pond outside Tingyu Pavilion and stood beside it.
"Yutong, as a man, it's not allowed for me to enter Tingyu Pavilion. I'm here with my brother. You go in and ask your cousin to come out and we can talk about something."
Yutong entered Tingyu Pavilion in response, and followed Zhou Yuexue and Dong'er out a moment later.
After several people had seen the ceremony, Lin Jinyan ordered Yutong.
"Go and ask Sister Agate if you've finished talking? Come over and call me when you're done, and we'll go there together."
Lin Jinyun's eyes have been glued to Zhou Yuexue since she came out.
Zhou Yuexue cursed secretly in her heart, but there was a shy look on her face.
After Yutong left, Lin Jinyan smiled and spoke.
"Cousin, although my grandparents did not allow people to enter Songmao Hall yesterday, but it is so close to Songmao Hall, you must have known about Second Aunt. My eldest brother and I came here to ask you to come with us to plead for Second Aunt. Is my cousin willing to go?"
After listening to Lin Jinyan's words, Zhou Yuexue hesitated for a while and carefully considered the pros and cons. When he was about to answer, Lin Jinyan spoke with complaint.
"Cousin, if you hadn't found out that Liu Jie was keeping a concubine and told your grandmother directly, the second aunt wouldn't be in this situation now. Now you are just begging for mercy for the second aunt, but you refuse?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Jinyun looked at Zhou Yuexue with a hint of disbelief: "Did sister Xueer tell grandma?"
Zhou Yuexue found it difficult to answer, so she resorted to her usual tactics, frowning aggrievedly with tears in her eyes.
"How could Sister Jinyan say that to me? I didn't know at the time that it was the shop run by my second cousin. If I had known, I would never have said anything."
Lin Jinyan was uncharacteristically aggressive: "Whether my cousin knows it or not, this matter is all caused by my cousin. My cousin should plead for mercy. My second aunt has been put in such a bad situation by you, why are you still wronged?"
Tears came out of Zhou Yuexue's eyes when she heard this. The look of pear blossoms with rain made Lin Jinyun's heart ache.
"Yan'er! How can you say that about sister Xue'er!"
Lin Jinyan looked at Lin Jinyun in disbelief: "Brother, I'm complaining about my second aunt, why are you still helping her!"
Lin Jinyun was speechless for a moment: "I...sister Xue'er also said that she didn't know about it beforehand. Why did you force her like this?"
"Cousin, stop pretending to be aggrieved and come with me to plead with grandma."
After Lin Jinyan finished speaking angrily, she quickly stepped forward and took Zhou Yuexue's hand.
Zhou Yuexue was frightened by Lin Jinyan's sudden movement and exclaimed.
When Lin Jinyun saw it, he thought Lin Jinyan had hurt Zhou Yuexue, and immediately went to pull Lin Jinyan's hand away.
Lin Jinyan took advantage of Lin Jinyun's hand, took two steps back and fell into the lotus pond.
Lin Jinyun, Zhou Yuexue, and Dong'er were all stunned by this sudden scene.
Manao and Yutong, who came from Songmaotang, were frightened to death when they saw Lin Jinyan being pushed into the pool by Lin Jinyun.
