Chapter 79: Song Ruyi
ver, it turned out that this very war shattered Yong's facade of strength and suppressed the restless ambitions of their army, bringing peace to the border between Zhuang and Yong for many years.The S...The Lin family was the top family in Wangjiang City, unlike the three prominent families, Wang, Fang, and Zhang, in Fenglin City. In Wangjiang City, the Lin family stood alone, laughing arrogantly at everyone else.
Especially after Lin Zhengren won the top spot in the Wusheng Quibao ranking for five consecutive years, this momentum reached its peak.
Although there was later the incident of Zhu Wei single-handedly overwhelming the Lin family, that humiliating defeat wasn't just for the Lin family, but for the entire city of Wangjiang. Therefore, the Lin family's influence did not suffer much damage.
When some people are successful, others may be unsuccessful.
The more those people prosper, the lower he falls.
The readily available business of Lin's medicinal herbs was gone, and Lin Zhenglun fell from the clouds to the dust overnight.
As a member of the Lin family, food and clothing were never a concern. But whereas he used to gather friends at Wangjiang Tower, he now could only buy wine on the street and seek his dreams in dingy taverns.
He hated it, but there was nothing he could do.
Lin Zhengli is the legitimate son of the Lin clan, an elite student at Wangjiang City Dao Academy. His father is the head of the Lin clan, and his elder brother is Lin Zhenren!
What does he have to compete with others
Some things are destined from birth. He didn't believe it before, but now he has to.
“Full up!” Lin Zhenglun staggered into the tavern like a zombie, throwing a plump gourd onto the counter.
The tavern owner took the wine gourd and frowned: "Lin...Master, you haven't paid for the two jugs of wine you had last time..."
"What" Lin Zhenglun stood up abruptly, staring straight at the boss. "Scared of me Can't afford the drinks We'll settle it all together at the end of the month!"
"Well, fine, fine." After all, he was a descendant of the Lin family. Even a down-on-his-luck tavern owner couldn't afford to offend him, so he could only lower his head and pour the liquor.
Suddenly, a voice rang out in the tavern, "Isn't this Brother Zheng Lun"
Lin Zhenglun turned his head and saw Lin Zhengli surrounded by a group of people. It seemed like something was happening. He passed by here and then heard Lin Zhenglun arguing with the tavern owner.
"Proper etiquette...Young Master Lin," Lin Zhenglun said with difficulty. The current scene was too embarrassing, especially when he was caught by Lin Zhengli.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Lin Zhengli looked up at the sky and then at Lin Zhenglun, who was frowning and drooping his eyelids. He smiled and said, "It's broad daylight, such a good time for wine!"
"Excuse me," Lin Zhenglun smiled wryly, picked up his wine gourd and walked away.
He nearly fled, like a bereaved dog.
"I suddenly remembered... the pharmacy recently seemed to have lost its manager, and they're short-staffed!" Lin Zhengli said behind him, as if casually.
Lin Zhenglun's steps came to a halt.
He turned around, forcing a somewhat unnatural smile onto his face: “Young Master Lin, do you think… I’m alright”
"Zheng Lun's brother's abilities are, of course, no problem." Lin Zhengli smiled and leaned closer to the hunched figure of Lin Zhenglun, whispering, "I heard that the widow you married is quite pretty... right"
"As you wish" Lin Zhenglun suddenly took two steps back, "No, no way!"
He shook his head vigorously, as if such exertion were not enough to resist the terrible struggle within him: "This can't be right!"
Lin Zhengli stood straight, still maintaining his composed smile: "No need to force it."
He turned his head and looked at the innkeeper next to him who was laughing. Pointing at Lin Zhenglun, he shouted, "This is someone from my Lin family! Don't underestimate him! Whatever wine he wants in the future, just serve it. At the end of the month, come to my Lin family to settle the bill."
The tavern owner loudly replied, "Hey! Since Young Master Lin has spoken, how dare I neglect him!"
Lin Zhenglun laughed heartily and said, “Thank you, Young Master Lin.”
"You're welcome." Lin Zhengli waved his hand and walked forward.
That group of people surrounded him and walked away.

Occasionally, flattering voices can be heard.
"Young Master Lin, so righteous!"

"What kind of 'young master Lin' You have no vision! You should call him Young Master Clan Leader!"

Lin Zhenglun staggered back home, clutching a wine gourd.
The alcohol seems especially strong today. I only had two sips on the way here, but it feels like I'm already drunk.
This is a two-part courtyard, kept clean and tidy. The front courtyard especially has some flowers and plants, well-cared for and very pleasing to the eye.
Lin Zhenglun lost his balance and stumbled, knocking over a flowerpot. He became annoyed and kicked it to pieces with one foot!
Wow!
Song Ruyi rushed out of the inner room and couldn't help but scold: "Lin Zhenglun! What nerve are you getting on again"
"You're not in a position to say that!" Lin Zhenglun glared at her and swayed into the house.
Song Ruyi took a step forward, blocking in front of him, forcing down her grievance: "You spend all day in the wine cellar. What do you mean Don't you want to live anymore"
“Ha! Interesting.” Lin Zhenglun sauntered with his wine gourd, and smiled: “What, you still want to part ways with me”
>
“Get a divorce, then get a divorce!”
"Huh, I didn't hear you. What did you say"
Song Ruyu tightly closed her eyes, forcing back the tears. When she opened them again, she was cold and distant: "I said, let's divorce."
"Ha! Ha!"
Lin Zhenglun laughed twice, then suddenly smashed the wine gourd in his hand to the ground!
The wine gourd bounced twice on the ground before rolling down the steps. The gourd itself didn't break, but the stopper was knocked off, and the wine spilled out. The entire courtyard was instantly filled with the scent of alcohol.
“You're not even looking at yourself!” Lin Zhenglun roared: “A widow, now willingly a discarded wife! You think you can still marry into a good family”
"That's better than following a useless person!"
"What did you say Say it again!" Lin Zhenglun took a big step forward, grabbing her by the neck and pressing her against the wall. His eyes were bloodshot: "Say it again!"
Song Ruyu's face flushed red, struggling and saying, "You... just kill me! Anyway, this life is better off dead!"
Lin Zhenglun released his hand and stumbled two steps backward.
"Are you still feeling wronged Are you still feeling wronged, aren't you" Lin Zhenglun pointed at her. "You sent silver and jade to Fenglin City! Right You used my money to support your ex-husband's children! Do you know what our family situation is like now I can't even afford a drink!"
Song Ruyu bent over and coughed for a while before catching her breath. She looked at the man in front of her, feeling that everything was so strange.
"Let's not talk about whether or not it's right for me to send things to An An. Just my dowry alone is enough for me to send her something new every year for ten years!"
“Where is your dowry” Lin Zhenglun stretched his voice, then suddenly shouted, “Where is it”
Here is the text translated into English:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
He yelled, "Damn it, how did I end up with nothing!"
"If you're not capable enough to protect yourself, then why blame me"
“I'm no good I'm useless!” Lin Zhenglun flushed red with anger, completely losing his composure: “I just don't have a good father! That deadbeat only left me the surname ‘Lin’, nothing else!”
He glared at Song Ruyi and snarled, "Or else how could I marry you How could I let people laugh at me Laugh at me for marrying a widow"
"Now that you find me a widow, you despise me"
Song Ruo-yi's voice trembled: "You said you were a member of the Lin family, from a noble background. Afraid people would look down on you and laugh at you. I even abandoned An'an and came to Wangjiang City with you!"

I let her brother take care of her, he's only seventeen! He hasn't even come of age! I even took all his property!
My heart has turned so cold. Sending her some money, isn't that right What do you think, my Lin clan descendants!
She walked closer, staring straight at Lin Zhenglun, and angrily questioned: "Do you eat or not, do you wear clothes or not, are you a member of the Lin family who lives in the second courtyard!"
Lin Zhenglun slapped her to the ground.
“Ridiculous! Preposterous!”
Lin Zhenglun turned and walked out, stepping on the puddle of wine with one foot, and slipping to the ground.
He scrambled to his feet and stumbled out, exclaiming, "This is preposterous! Utterly ridiculous!"
“Lin Zhenglun!” Song Ruyan lay on the ground, covering her face with her hands, tears streaming down her cheeks, gritting her teeth: “Now that it’s come to this, I only ask you one question, did you truly love me back then”
“Aha, aha! Love”
Lin Zhenglun kicked over another flowerpot.
"Damn it! What is this crap"
He dashed out of the yard.
He didn't know where he wanted to go, or even where he could go. But it seemed like he couldn't stay there any longer without losing face.
He had to leave, he had to run away.
A dog that has lost its home, truly lost everything.
