Chapter 219 What a Sin
Lin Zheng took dinner back to the room.
"I'm just a little weak, but I can't be unable to lift a bowl of rice, right?" Yu Ning curled up on the sofa, Lin Zheng sat beside her, holding the tray and feeding her.
While I was complaining, he took advantage of the opportunity to stuff a piece of smoked salmon into my mouth.
We were cooking in the kitchen today, and several chefs prepared a very romantic table setting. After all, the two young masters in the family were having happy events, so there was a sense of ritual.
The chefs were very attentive, but unfortunately Lin Zheng found it troublesome.
I just found a nine-grid plate and put some of each item on it. There was no need to arrange the dish. The most important thing was that Ningning enjoyed her meal.
No matter how precious the ingredients were, he put them all in the nine-square grid.
Seeing that the exquisitely presented dish had turned into a roadside box lunch, the chef did not dare to protest to Lin Zheng directly. He could only remind this unromantic boss in a tactful and aggrieved manner.
Exquisite plating can provide people with full emotional value. Boss, don’t you want to make the boss lady happier?
Lin Zheng was stuffing a lobster tail into the plate at that time. It was too big to fit in, so he used a kitchen knife to cut it in two, then pressed it hard with a large spoon. It was full.
The chef couldn't even muster a polite smile.
"What did you just say - emotional value? I can tell at a glance that you don't understand my wife." Lin Zheng flattened the lunch box, closed the lid, and showed his affection at the same time.
The chef continued with a blank expression, thinking that if he understood the boss lady too well, the boss would not be chopping the lobster with the knife, but would probably be chopping him.
"My wife has never pursued these flashy rituals. Providing emotional value does not necessarily require such a superficial method."
Lin Laowu, who was thinking about how to decorate the place more beautifully to give Xiaokui a sense of ceremony, looked up silently and watched Lin Laoda talking, complaining wildly in his heart.
You are noble! You are amazing! We are all superficial!
However, Lin Laowu changed his mind and thought that even though he was ridiculed by his elder brother for being flashy, at least he could sit at the table to eat.
Lin Laosan originally wanted to pass on his "advanced experience" to his eldest brother, but it was not adopted and he was even despised by his eldest brother.
Even the newly single Lao Wu started to criticize him. In a fit of rage, Lin Lao San didn't even eat, left behind the documents he was supposed to give to Lin Zheng, and went back to the company to work overtime.
Lin Zheng force-fed his wife despite Yu Ning's objection and enjoyed the joy of feeding her - when he saw Lao Wu feeding Xiaokui, he frantically imagined whether he could feed Ning Ning as well.
Everything you wish for has come true.
Yu Ning was naturally unwilling, but she couldn't resist the emotional value provided by Lin Zheng.
Just as Lin Zheng boasted to the chef, he never needed any fancy rituals to coax his wife.
He just needs to tell Yu Ning about the stupid things his third son has done as a joke. Isn't that emotional value?
Yu Ning frowned. Lin Laosan's behavior of objectifying women was undoubtedly stepping into her minefield.
She was recruiting troops today to get rid of that old fogey who discriminated against women, and her mood was not very good.
It feels like I got the most annoying item in a blind box. The idea of the previous dynasty being rotten and rotten makes me sick every time I hear it.
After finally getting rid of the old stubborn man, Lin Laosan started to poke at her sore spots again.
That's why Yu Ning asked Lin Zheng why he didn't kick that guy a few times.
"I've recently come to realize that anything that Riot Education doesn't understand will be repaid to them in a cruel way in the near future."
If there are things that your brother’s fists cannot teach you, let the iron fist of reality hit you.
Yu Ning's brows relaxed, obviously she was very satisfied with his handling of the matter.
Lin Zheng raised his fingers in victory in his heart.
Look, emotional value, isn’t it here?
Isn't it more effective to educate a younger brother with distorted values than to prepare a fancy dinner?
Considering the emotional value he provided, Yu Ning reluctantly let him enjoy the pleasure of feeding him.
"But then again, why are you so interested in the third brother's girlfriend?" Lin Zheng asked.
“Because this girl is so miserable.”
Yu Ning simply told Lin Zheng what she saw from Qiqi's face. When she was young, she was forcibly identified as a witch and was bullied.
Whenever someone in the village gets sick, they blame her.
There were even some lecherous men who had evil intentions because of her beauty. The wives and mothers of those men would come to Qiqi's house and beat, scold and parade her through the streets.
I think she was poisoned by love.
After finally escaping from the village and coming to the big city, she fell in love with the sea king Lin Laosan.
Lin Laosan's fortune shortened her life by ten years.
The worst thing is that she only has Lin Lao San in her heart, but Lin Lao San will get married in less than two years.
"How can it shorten my life by another ten years? Use my--" Lin Zheng wanted to say that he would use his money to help his brother pay off the debt, but then he changed his mind and realized that his life was now tied to Ningning's.
Life span cannot be wasted, it concerns Ningning.
His daughter Ningning is going to do something big, so it’s better to use her life sparingly.
"Should I let the third brother marry her?" Lin Zheng asked Yu Ning.
Yu Ning shook her head.
"Destiny is not fixed. Just like Lao Wu, his career was blocked before, but now it is in a steady rise. But there are only three things that cannot be changed: life and death are determined by heaven, and marriage is tied by a thread."
"I can share my life span with you. Life and death aren't so fixed, right?"
"Uh - for life and death, isn't there an underground black market transaction to disrupt the market? But for marriage, I don't think I've ever heard of a method to modify it by using a bug. To me, modifying marriage is a niche."
"Ah? How could this be unpopular?" Lin Zheng didn't understand.
Men should get married when they are old enough, and women should get married when they are old enough. This saying has been passed down for thousands of years.
How come changing one's marriage has become unpopular among the Xuanmen sect now?
“It’s really cold.”
Yu Ning nodded affirmatively.
Most people seek them out to pray for wealth and longevity, followed by seeking to ward off evil spirits and adjust Feng Shui.
There aren't many people seeking marriage partners.
Those people at the top of the pyramid don’t have much demand for marriage.
In the past, there may have been wealthy ladies who were willing to spend a lot of money to find a marriage partner, but as the times progressed, their desire for marriage partners has shifted.
The traditional idea of finding a good husband and living a stable life has been replaced by the idea of seizing power and gaining more wealth.
During the long evolutionary process of history, women have awakened to the awareness that if they hold power, they have the right to speak.
More women no longer focus on the illusory love and the marriage that requires two people to manage.
Wealth can be possessed by one person. Having wealth means having the right to speak, which can make life better. It sounds easier than managing a marriage.
However, due to environmental limitations and their own lack of ability, some lower-class women are still willing to pray for marriage and a man to be their savior, and some lower-class men think so too.
But the problem is that these low-income groups cannot reach out to Yu Ning and others.
He knelt in front of the God of Wealth Temple and refused to get up, while the God of Matchmaker Temple ignored him.
Changing marriage has become an unpopular subject for Ning and her friends.
So when Lin Zheng asked Yu Ning if he could bring the third brother together with the girl he had let down, Yu Ning looked hesitant.
She couldn't solve this problem.
"Putting aside the wishes of the third brother, the fates of these two people are really not compatible. If they are forced to get married, the third brother will be more unlucky for her and she will die faster."
"This third brother is really a sinner." Lin Zheng thought for a while and made a decision.
