Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 683

Chapter 683: Chapter 558: Have Your Mother Sever Ties with You

In the study, Mr. Lin glanced at his son and grandson while eating. There were some words he had mulled over recently, turning them in his mind repeatedly, feeling they still had to be brought up.

This time, he called the children back, not truly for a final farewell. But the consequences of some matters, he had to arrange accordingly.

Why was his wife so ruthless to Zhou Xiaozheng? Previously, he might not have been very clear, thinking it was nothing more than some grudges between the Gu Family and them. But now, even the matter of poisoning to eradicate has surfaced, revealing many doubts.

And with it, the truth came too.

When alone late at night, thinking back, Mr. Lin would laugh aloud.

He had indulged and trusted his partner all his life, yet she dreamt apart from him while resting beside him, and he knew nothing of it. He didn’t understand love or hate, but he had heard that the deeper the love, the deeper the hate.

And the most absurd thing was that it turned out to be falling flowers yearning, with flowing water heartless. All of this left him without even an object to resent.

As one grows old, reminiscing becomes frequent. Mr. Lin couldn’t forget the girl who smiled so sweetly each time her eyes lit up seeing him, nor the hands that secretly sewed for him and cooked little meals, nor the eyes swollen from crying each time she saw his wounds.

At that time, he was truly happy... As an orphan, he had never experienced such care. He told himself she was his only family, the woman who would bear his children in the future, he must treat her well all his life.

And he indeed succeeded, treating her like a precious pearl, doing everything possible, giving everything he could, indulging her, protecting her with all his heart and effort.

But now, his favorite daughter is not his biological child, and his most trusted wife always had someone in her heart. It’s truly ridiculous.

Given the current situation, he knew the best approach was to let go of his partner, rather than seeking someone. Yet, he still couldn’t bear to let go.

After finishing his meal, Lin Dingsheng put down the bowl, looked at the old man lost in thought, reached out and nudged him, softly saying, "Grandpa, do you want to rest for a bit?"

Mr. Lin snapped back and looked at his grandson’s concerned gaze with a comforting smile. There’s nothing he couldn’t let go of, he was old, nothing mattered anymore, it was time to consider his children and grandchildren.

"Dad, you should rest first. When big brother comes back tomorrow, we’ll discuss it further."

Mr. Lin shook his head. Wait for the eldest to return? He couldn’t burden his eldest son with this decision. He was his firstborn, the hope of the family.

"All those things said earlier were based on Zhou Jiao helping or Zhou Xiaozheng not caring for your mom. But those are too idealistic, unrealistic."

Lin Aidang nodded. Many things were difficult to say out loud. As the old man stated, they were too unrealistic. If someone treated him like that, he would definitely make them pay, but sadly, this was his mom.

Mr. Lin was silent for a while, observing his son and grandsons, he slowly spoke, "If it truly comes to that point one day, I plan to have your mother sever ties with you, no life or death contact."

Lin Aidang exclaimed in shock, "Dad?"

Lin Dingsheng watched Mr. Lin thoughtfully. He knew this was the best solution, not chasing some illusory hope with Zhou Jiao, aligning with what the head of the family should do. His grandfather finally spoke up.

Lin Dingli stared blankly at Mr. Lin, dazed. That was his grandmother, his own grandmother, and she was paralyzed, unable to care for herself. How could this be?

Mr. Lin’s gaze traversed his son, eldest grandson, and youngest grandson, seeing their different expressions, his feelings were complicated, filled with indescribable emotions.

Mr. Lin wasn’t surprised by his eldest grandson’s reaction. He was the third-generation family head he had high hopes for, a child he personally trained. For the sake of family interests, decisiveness was necessary, even this idea was taught by his wife to the children, and now it finally applied to herself.

"With so many trees, mosquitoes are inevitable. Our vacation days are few, what should we do about this matter? If we truly listen to grandpa, what about grandma?"

Lin Dingsheng glanced around, pulled his hand into the room, frowned and said, "There are outsiders in the house, don’t speak carelessly. Always being careless, can you be more alert?"

Lin Dingli looked at him, went to the bed, sprawled out, sighed and said, "I’m just bullied by frustration. Grandpa voicing it shows he is prepared."

Lin Dingsheng went to the desk, pulled out a chair, after sitting down, he stared at the ground absentmindedly.

"Brother, imagine how heartbroken grandma would be if she knew. If we sever ties with her, it’s worse than killing her. Think of it, as a paralyzed elderly, without her children by her side, even if we secretly provide money to hire someone to care for her, who knows if they will tend to her carefully..."

Lin Dingsheng looked up at his brother.

"Brother, it’s not just that. Have you thought about it? If grandpa really wants us to break ties with grandma, haha... those families who truly care for their daughters will absolutely not let us marry them. Think of it, who can we unite with in marriage?"

Lin Dingsheng rolled his eyes at his brother, "All you think about is girls, why didn’t you marry sooner?"

"Don’t change the subject, I’m telling you the consequences of this matter. Also, I think..."

Under the eaves next door stood a silhouette, wide-eyed in disbelief, walking briskly forward, then abruptly stopping.

Through the window light, the person standing outside was evidently Lin Family’s second daughter-in-law Jiang Jiangyu. At this moment, she covered her lips, her eyes swirling round, then stealthily left.
