Chapter 1020 The Best Family 147
Not only was Sun Linyun afraid that Linlang might become the empress dowager, but her husband's family was also afraid of this.

When Linlang was in favor and was named a noble concubine, Sun Linyun's husband's family was probably afraid that Sun Linyun had severely offended Linlang, and that Linlang would remember her one day and take care of their family in order to deal with her. So when Linlang was named a noble concubine, Sun Linyun's husband's family treated Sun Linyun badly.

She was worried at that time that if Sun Linlang became the Imperial Noble Consort or even the Empress, her husband's family would be afraid of being influenced by her and might divorce her to distance themselves from her.

Now her fears had come true.

After Linlang gave birth to a child and was named Imperial Noble Consort, her husband's family had been wavering between divorcing her and perhaps her family could reconcile with the eldest branch of the Sun family and keep her useful. At that time, seeing that Linlang did not cause trouble for her, although her husband's family was worried every day, they did not take any action.

But now, Linlang's son has been named the crown prince. There is no doubt that Linlang will become the empress dowager in the future. Based on her abuse of Sun Linlang in the past, her husband's family is naturally worried that she will bring disaster to their family, so they naturally want to divorce her. After all, it will be too late to divorce Sun Linyun after Linlang's son becomes emperor.

Even though Sun Linyun has lived in her husband's family for decades and now has many children and grandchildren, her children and grandchildren support her husband in divorcing her when they think about how she offended the future empress dowager. After all, who is not afraid of being in trouble with the empress dowager? Sacrificing Sun Linyun is nothing if they want to continue to live a good life.

This is what Sun Linyun fears.

Because things are different now than they were decades ago. At that time, her parents were still there, so even if she divorced and went back, her parents would be able to support her, so she didn't have to worry.

But now, her parents have passed away, and her brothers are in charge. Her brothers and their wives and children may not welcome her to divorce and go back. They may even think the same as her husband's family, that she had offended Sun Linlang in the past. What if Sun Linlang refuses to let her go? Wouldn't it be bad to welcome her back home?

So Sun Linyun is now facing the most terrible situation - although she has many brothers in her mother's family, and although her husband's family has many children, none of them is willing to accept her.

If that were the case, where would she go?
Sun Linyun felt a little scared when she thought about being left alone and without anyone to care for her when she got old.

When she traveled back to ancient times, she was ambitious at first. But since when did her life become like this?

Maybe it was because she had just come here for a few days and found that the first wife was sucking the blood of the second wife. She couldn't stand the first wife's big family who all relied on their house for free food and drink. She couldn't stand it anymore and thought she had come into a novel about fighting against the best. So she started to angrily attack the first wife, whom she thought was the best, and drove the whole family out.

At that time, she didn't think there was anything wrong with doing so. Seeing that she had driven away the entire family of the eldest wife, she was very happy and joyful. She felt that she had successfully defeated the best and was as mighty as the heroine in those domestic fighting novels.

At that time, she felt that she must be the protagonist of this world. After all, the scripts were written like this: the heroine traveled through time, punched her bad relatives, kicked her scumbag partner, and finally achieved success in both career and love.

But things didn't turn out the way she thought.

She was not happy for long after driving away the whole family of the first wife. Ever since she heard that Sun Linlang from the first wife had entered the palace to participate in the election and successfully entered, she had been feeling uneasy and started to worry.

When she first heard that Linlang was going to participate in the selection, she could still laugh at her for overestimating her own abilities. A country girl dared to enter the palace for the selection. After all, she had seen Sun Linlang and knew what she looked like. She really didn't think that she could enter the palace with that appearance.

Who would have thought that despite her ugly appearance, she could actually enter the palace? This was something she had never expected. She couldn't understand how Sun Linlang could successfully enter the palace with her appearance.

——How could she know that Linlang used money to open the way, and also took gene repair fluid, which restored a lot of her bad appearance caused by malnutrition. She didn't know why Linlang was able to enter the palace, anyway, her life started to become difficult from then on.

Even if Sun Linlang was not favored at the beginning, she would not have a good time, because she was worried that Sun Linlang would be favored and then she would be slapped in the face.

How can you live a good life with such worries in your heart?

So she chased away the eldest wife's family. She was not happy for just a few days, and then began a lifelong unhappiness.

It would be fine if she was unhappy, but now, just for the momentary pleasure she had, she would be helpless in her old age. How could Sun Linyun not be terrified?

Some people, seeing that things have come to this point, might simply hang themselves from a southeast branch to see if they can get their clothes back on. But she is not the kind of person who dares to hang herself from a southeast branch. She still values ​​her life and is afraid that if she hangs herself from a southeast branch, she will not be able to get her clothes back on, which would be bad.

If she didn't want to die, she would naturally be afraid of the situation she would face if Linlang became the empress dowager.

In fact, what she feared more now was that her husband's family would not only divorce her but also make her die of illness, which would be troublesome.

You know, she is old now. If she catches a cold, her husband's family can tamper with the medicine she drinks and make her disappear without anyone noticing. There is no need to divorce her, lest others say that her husband's family is too heartless. She has given birth to children for their family all her life, but they divorced her just because they were afraid of being punished by the Queen Mother.

So it is very likely that she died of illness, so that she would not be divorced and then she would be gone. I think seeing that she was dead, Linlang would not cause trouble for her husband's family.

Sun Linyun couldn’t figure out whether it would be better to die of illness or to be divorced and have nowhere to go.

She didn't want to die, but she was afraid of being divorced. As an old lady, she would have nowhere to go and would most likely be thrown into a temple by her brothers from her natal family.

She doesn't want to go to the temple and live the life of a nun.

In fact, Sun Linyun's worries were not groundless, because her husband's family was really considering whether to divorce her or let her die of illness.

Although if she died of illness, people would not say that their family was too heartless to divorce a person who had been married into their family for decades. However, they were afraid that if she died of illness and did not cut ties with Sun Linyun, Empress Dowager Sun Linlang would think that Sun Linyun was still a member of their family and would take revenge on them.

And if they divorced Sun Linyun, the Queen Mother would know their family's determination to draw a clear line between themselves and Sun Linyun, and she probably wouldn't cause trouble for them.

But if they divorced Sun Linyun, they would also have to consider how outsiders would view them. After all, they still had to save face.

This is the reason why even though Linlang's son has become the crown prince, Sun Linyun's husband's family has not taken any action against her, because they are still arguing among themselves about which method is the safest to deal with Sun Linyun.
