Listening to Xiao Hei and junior sister Lin Qingxin, Lin Hao pondered slightly and then said, "We'll talk about managing the Lin family's affairs later."
"However, since Grandpa left a letter specifically to hand this matter over to me, I naturally cannot turn a blind eye and ignore it completely."
"Therefore, we'll discuss managing the Lin family's affairs later, but if any major events happen in the Lin family, I won't stand idly by."
Hearing Lin Hao's words, Xiao Hei nodded, "This is not a bad idea."
"However, I saw in the old man's letter that he wants senior brother to lead the Lin family to glory again."
"If senior brother doesn't manage the Lin family, given its current state, it will be difficult to regain its former glory."
Listening to Xiao Hei, Lin Hao said indifferently, "Break and then stand. Let them stir up trouble."
Xiao Hei was stunned. After a few seconds, he understood Lin Hao's true intention.
"Senior brother, you are indeed amazing," Xiao Hei said, looking at Lin Hao and sincerely giving him a thumbs up.
"Brother Lin Hao, does this mean you won't have to stay with the Lin family anymore?" Lin Qingxin asked Lin Hao happily.
Seeing Lin Qingxin's happy smile, Lin Hao couldn't help but smile and pat her forehead, "Yes, I don't have to stay with the Lin family."
"That's great! Then let's leave quickly." Lin Qingxin happily linked her arm with Lin Hao's and prepared to leave the Lin family.
"No rush, let's attend the wedding first."
Lin Hao smiled as he patted junior sister Lin Qingxin's forehead and then walked towards the door.
As soon as the door opened, Lin Hao saw several Lin family servants darting into the garden.
Ignoring them, Lin Hao, with junior sister Lin Qingxin and Xiao Hei, walked towards the main hall.
Although Lin Qingxin didn't know why Lin Hao wanted to attend Lin Qingsong's wedding for no apparent reason, she didn't say anything more since Lin Hao had said they would go.
After all, she would follow whatever Lin Hao did.
Passing through the garden's rockery and a long corridor, Lin Hao, Xiao Hei, and junior sister Lin Qingxin arrived at the place where Lin Qingsong was getting married.
The wedding scene was bustling with people, lively and grand.
The groom, Lin Qingsong, was wearing a slim-fitting black suit, with a red ribbon tied with a flower pinned to his chest.
Lin Hao did not recognize the bride, who was wearing a bright red qipao, her hair styled high, with a beautiful face and excellent demeanor.
Lin Hao originally intended to take a look and leave.
After all, his grandfather's letter had mentioned it.
Although he didn't want to manage the Lin family, it was necessary for him to glance at the eldest grandson's wedding.
What if the bride was someone undesirable, tarnishing the Lin family's century-old reputation? His grandfather's reputation would be ruined.
Although Lin Hao felt that his uncle Lin Yuanshan and Lin Qingsong would not do such a thing, as they were people who cared about their reputation.
But there's always a "what if."
If Lin Yuanshan and Lin Qingsong really did something that damaged the Lin family's reputation, it would be too late.
Therefore, for safety's sake, Lin Hao decided to take a look before leaving.
However, he did not expect this.
As soon as Lin Hao stood still, his uncle Lin Yuanshan, with a grim expression, strode over.
"Lin Hao, what exactly do you want to do!?" Lin Yuanshan said to Lin Hao, almost gritting his teeth.
Seeing Lin Yuanshan gritting his teeth with a gloomy expression, Lin Hao ignored him and said indifferently, "I'm here to take a look."
"You!"
Lin Hao's attitude instantly angered Lin Yuanshan to the point of sputtering.
"Who is Lin Qingsong marrying? Who are the bride's family?" Lin Hao asked, looking at the bride and Lin Qingsong who were toasting at the banquet.
However, these words, upon being spoken, made Lin Yuanshan, who was already full of anger, even more furious.
"Unfilial son!"
"Simply an unfilial son!"
"To speak to him in such a tone!"
"Does he treat him like a servant!?"
Lin Yuanshan gritted his teeth in anger, but he dared not unleash his fury.
In the end, his face could only turn purple like a pig's liver, contorted with suppressed rage.
"What, do you want me to repeat myself?" Lin Hao asked indifferently, looking at Lin Yuanshan, who had been silent for a long time.
Lin Yuanshan's face turned purple, and he finally gritted his teeth and said, "The bride's family is our local fifth-ranked family. The one marrying Song'er is the fifth family's patriarch, Fifth Yuanze's youngest daughter, Fifth Yinrou."
After speaking, Lin Yuanshan couldn't help but raise his head, his gaze towards Lin Hao filled with pride.
Although the Fifth family was once a second-rate family, it is now one of the top families in Chang'an and even the entire Shaanxi province.
Especially the old patriarch of the Fifth family, Fifth Bo Weng, whose skills in fortune-telling and divination were said to be able to understand ghosts and gods and foresee the future.
He was even comparable to the Lin family of the Mayi lineage at its peak.
And the current Fifth family is already showing signs of becoming the leader of all forces in Chang'an.
However, facing the pride in Lin Yuanshan's eyes, Lin Hao frowned.
He was naturally aware of the Fifth family's reputation.
However, if it were the Lin family's former prestige, or if his grandfather were still alive, it would have been understandable for the Fifth family to choose to form a marriage alliance with the Lin family.
But given the Lin family's current reputation and power.
How could the burgeoning Fifth family possibly marry into the current Lin family?
Considering the gap between the Lin family and the Fifth family, Lin Hao felt that this marriage was somewhat amiss.
Seeing Lin Hao frown in silence, Lin Yuanshan, who was initially quite proud, could no longer stand it.
He didn't know what Lin Hao was thinking or what his intentions were.
Of course, he wasn't overly panicked.
Now that the Lin family was allied with the Fifth family through marriage, and his wife, Fifth Yinrou, was the youngest daughter of the Fifth family's patriarch and the granddaughter of the old patriarch, Fifth Bo Weng.
He didn't believe that if Lin Hao made a move against them, the Fifth family would stand idly by.
Thinking of these things, Lin Yuanshan's confidence grew.
And just as Lin Yuanshan was contemplating these matters, Lin Hao looked at his uncle Lin Yuanshan and said coldly, "You'd better tell me the truth about this marriage with the Fifth family."
"Otherwise, Lin Qingsong's wedding today will not proceed."
Hearing Lin Hao's words, Lin Yuanshan's expression changed instantly, and then he couldn't help but look at Lin Hao and say, "Lin Hao, what exactly do you mean!"
"What do you mean by our marriage with the Fifth family!?"
"Is there something wrong with us forming a marriage alliance with the Fifth family?"
"Is my son Lin Qingsong not allowed to marry the second princess of the Fifth family?"
"Today is my son Qingsong's wedding day, and I don't want to argue with you, but you keep coming to trouble us, even claiming that you don't want my son to get married."
"Tell me, what exactly do you mean!"
Lin Yuanshan's voice was very loud.
As he spoke, almost all the guests attending the wedding banquet heard him.
Of course, this was exactly his intention.
Wasn't Lin Hao very capable?
With so many families and forces present today, he wanted to see how capable Lin Hao really was!
