The Comeback of the Charming Farmer's Wife

Chapter 2075 - 2077: Killing with a Borrowed Knife

"Her?" Luo Linfei widened her eyes, "How could it be her? Why would she do that?"

"Hmph, that old woman had wanted her young daughter to become a concubine for Prince Le before the new year, but unfortunately Prince Le was not interested. Meanwhile, Yang Chuxia’s short-lived cousin became the secondary princess consort, and just for that, the old woman of the Prime Minister’s family has kept it in her heart."

First Madam Luo immediately continued, "That little daughter of her family is no good either. At such a young age, she’s already looking for a husband herself. Who knows when she met that brat Linhao, and she even fancies him."

"Hasn’t Linhao already been engaged to a girl from the Yang Family? Given the relationship between Luo Linhao and the Yang Family, they certainly won’t call off the engagement. So, the Madam of the Prime Minister’s scheme kicks in. If that girl from the Yang Family can’t bear children, she believes your good third uncle will definitely not leave his son without heirs and would definitely break off the engagement with the Yang Family. Then the Prime Minister’s family’s opportunity would come."

"Oh mother, how could you be so foolish?" Luo Linfei got anxious as soon as she heard it, "We absolutely can’t let anyone know that Yang Xiayun can’t conceive, nor can we let the third branch call off the engagement. What we want is for the third branch to have no children, so that we can adopt the first branch’s offspring in the future. It’s definitely not to let the third branch marry another who can have children. If the third branch marries someone from the Prime Minister’s family and has children in the future, what would we have left?"

"Of course your mother knows." First Madam Luo pouted, "Both father and son in the third branch are romantics. Your third aunt has been gone for so many years, and your third uncle hasn’t remarried anyone new, and Luo Linhao is the same. They definitely wouldn’t call off the engagement just because Yang Xiayun can’t have children. So the Madam of the Prime Minister’s plan is doomed to fail."

"I’m just using her, having her take action on this matter, so even if it’s found out, it won’t be related to us."

First Madam Luo then sighed, "Actually, if a woman can’t conceive, it’s not as resolvable as if a man can’t. If the girl from the Yang Family can’t conceive, Luo Linhao will eventually take a concubine, and children will still be needed, so we’ll still have to deal with it then."

"That’s true, but we can’t make a move on Luo Linhao, so we can only start with Yang Xiayun." Luo Linfei said.

Indeed, since the last time this mother and daughter plotted against the third branch’s title, First Madam Luo discussed with Old Master Luo and felt that Luo Linfei’s method of cutting off descendants, though a bit ruthless, was quite effective.

At that time, Old Master Luo sent people to try to infiltrate Luo Linhao’s army to poison him, but he didn’t expect Luo Linhao’s troops to be particularly strict, and almost as soon as those two entered the camp, they were captured.

To avoid leaking secrets, the two committed suicide.

From this incident, Old Master Luo realized that approaching Luo Linhao directly was not feasible, so he had to target someone else.

First Madam Luo knew well Yang Chuxia’s cleverness and didn’t want to act directly herself. It so happened that when she was visiting the Tong Family, she overheard the young girl from the Prime Minister’s family talking with the Tong family’s girl, and suddenly came up with an idea.

She merely said two sentences in front of the Madam of the Prime Minister, saying if the girl from the Yang Family couldn’t bear children, even if Luo Linhao liked her, he wouldn’t marry a girl from the Yang Family again.

Just like that, she said two sentences, and the Madam of the Prime Minister took action.

"But I’m still a bit worried." First Madam Luo added, "I heard that the person from the Mu Family went to Prince An’s Mansion last night, I don’t know how that turned out."
