The Lin Family was wealthy and had many descendants.
Many children mean many considerations and conflicts.
Lin Yi was the only descendant of the third family branch. He was orphaned at a young age, and Lin Guozhang had always valued him. This time he had brought him back with the idea of gradually planning for him to begin building a reputation to gain a foothold in the official ranks.
However, there were only a few positions available, yet there were plenty of candidates.
Lin Mu of the main family branch had three legitimate sons and five sons from concubines. All these children needed to forge their own paths, but none of them were favoured by Lin Guozhang as much as his own Yi.
If Yi were to be removed, the position that originally belonged to him would become vacant.
Then, Lin Mu's sons would become the biggest beneficiaries.
Thinking of this, the Third Madam cast a speculative gaze at Lin Mu.
Lin Mu cursed inwardly.
