Chapter 316： Patriarch's Weakness

Chapter 316 The Patriarch's Weakness

Lin Jinxiao stood up lonely, never expecting that the excitement would end before it even started.

He glanced coldly at the complacent Chu Nanzhi, and said in his heart: "You really have it."

Ignoring Lin Yuan and Da Chen's old couple, they walked out of the yard resentfully.

"Da Lang."

Da Chen was extremely dissatisfied with his ambiguous attitude, and wanted to stop him unwillingly.

Lin Jinxiao came back to his senses slowly, and stared at third uncle Lin Yuan with gloomy eyes: "If my third uncle didn't remember clearly what I said yesterday, what my second uncle said just now is clear enough."

Lin Yuan was terrified by the cold light he cast, and replied fearfully: "Yes, Jinxiao, my uncle told your uncle as soon as he came home yesterday that she will not seduce your mother again. "

"Why, don't dare to confuse my stepmother anymore, and now I'm changing my uncle to fight in person?"

Lin Jinxiao raised his eyebrows slightly, and snorted coldly.

"Dalang, uncle is doing it for your own good."

Big Chen put on a sincere attitude to persuade: "We are all a family. Your grandfather and your third uncle are brothers of the same mother. My uncle will never harm you."

"It's rare that my uncle still remembers the relationship between my grandfather and my third uncle."

Lin Jinxiao sneered with disdain on his face: "I don't know when I was living outside and couldn't even get enough to eat, did the third uncle ever think that we are a family?

I was in trouble in the tax and bank case, and my life was at stake. My stepmother’s family made things difficult for my wife and children. Instead of dissuading you, you encouraged them to embarrass me. You insisted on causing us mother and son to turn against each other, but you never thought that we were a family ? "

The imposing repeated questioning made Mrs. Chen speechless with shame.

"I, Lin Jinxiao, don't hold grudges, but I am tolerant. I advise my third uncle to stop everything in moderation and think twice before acting."

After saying this, Lin Jinxiao turned around and left resolutely.

Chu Nanzhi didn't want to pay any attention to the old couple anymore, and pulled Lin Jinhui out of the yard together.

She hadn't heard anyone mention the relationship between the ancestors of the Lin family, and when she left the courtyard, she couldn't help but asked curiously: "Jinhui, why is your third uncle and your brother Jinxiao's grandfather the same brother? ?”

"Isn't it too similar?"

Lin Jinhui smiled wryly and said: "Actually, my grandfather, third uncle and fifth uncle, that is, brother Jinxiao's grandfather, all belong to the same mother. After studying with my uncle, I moved out of here and went to Anlin Village."

After saying this, Lin Jinhui's expression gradually dimmed, and he sighed softly:

"Because of this, my grandfather was actually very guilty. Before he died, he deliberately told his father to bring brother Jinxiao and his family back to the city. Presumably, their father and son also had resentment towards their grandfather and third uncle, so they didn't mention it to my sister-in-law. Get over it."

"I see."

Chu Nanzhi suddenly realized and nodded.

No wonder Da Chen and Lin Yuan are so keen to meddle in the family affairs of Lin Jinxiao and Jinhui's brothers and sisters, and they think it's justified.

On the way back last night, she did hear Lin Jinxiao mention the matter of her ancestors selling properties and land to the old patriarch at a low price, but she never heard him mention the relationship between the various families.

If it weren't for Lin Jinhui's explicit statement at this time, she would even think that the patriarch and him are just uncles and nephews of the same clan, which shows that his affection for these clansmen has long since faded.

Backing to the living room, Lin Jinxiao only took some plasters out, and went straight to the study. Liu Yun was waiting in the hall with Sang Kun and Sang Qi brothers and sisters. Seeing that Chu Nanzhi led Lin Jinhui back again, he felt more at ease.

Seeing the scar on Lin Jinhui's neck, Liu Yun quickly took the plaster over and wiped it on her distressedly: "You silly girl, why are you so overwhelmed, if I knew this, I should have asked your sister-in-law to force you to stay. "

"Don't worry, Auntie, I'm fine."

Lin Jinhui smiled warmly: "And I will never do stupid things again."

"That's good."

Liu Yun nodded reassuringly, and told Sang Kun and Sangqi brothers and sisters to go back to rest.

Chu Nanzhi looked around, but did not see the quadruplets, so she asked casually, "Have all the little treasures fallen asleep?"

"I got them all to sleep before I got down."

Liu Yun turned her head and looked in the direction of the study, lowered her voice and asked in a low voice: "Dazhi, are you all right, I don't seem very happy to see Dalang?"

"fine."

Chu Nanzhi smiled lightly: "It must be that he brought up some old things, it will be fine tomorrow."

Recalling Xiaobailian's gloating face just now, she was still a little angry at the moment, so she didn't bother to care about this guy's life and death.

Anyway, it is logical to leave him tonight.

Liu Yun lowered her brows and thought for a while, then nodded half-believingly, finished rubbing the medicine on Lin Jinhui, and then said: "Then you should take Jinhui to rest quickly, there will be handymen coming to repair the yard tomorrow."

"Okay, mother can go too, as long as I'm here to take care of it."

Bringing Liu Yun back to the backyard, Chu Nanzhi casually looked in the direction of the study, then turned off the lights and led Lin Jinhui back to the bedroom.

The aunt and sister-in-law lay down on the bed. After Lin Jinhui fell asleep, in the dark room, Chu Nanzhi slowly gathered her thoughts and continued to think about the thoughts that were interrupted just now.

How can everyone unanimously cast suspicion on the Zhou mother and daughter without witnesses or physical evidence? This may have to be traced back to the grievances between the sister-in-law and Lin Sanniang.

But why didn't the murderer put the murder weapon in Lin Jinhui's yard, but the pond in Zhou's yard instead?

Lin Jinhui had a dispute with Lin Sanniang, and they had deep grievances. If she was blamed, it would be more convincing, but it happened to be the Zhou family in the end.

It can be seen that the people behind the scenes wanted to frame Zhou from the beginning.

The Lin clan are all good-looking people. At the formal family banquet last night, Lin Tingzhen didn't even invite the juniors in the clan. How could he let the concubine's concubine's concubine daughter attend the banquet at will?

And asked Lin Sanniang to go to the door to meet her, which is obviously not proper.

"The most important point is that the members of the Lin clan know that Jinhui and Lin Sanniang are not on good terms, but they still force her into the banquet. Is it obvious that someone wants to provoke trouble?"

From this point of view, there must be someone behind the scenes to fuel the flames, the purpose is to provoke this incident, and make the situation bigger and more rigid.

"I'm afraid this is a long-planned conspiracy to intensify the conflict between the two sisters to the point of inextricability, instigate people's hearts to be one-sided, and then kill Lin Sanniang, making everyone believe that the young lady killed the young concubine. , and then Zhou had no choice but to plead guilty in order to protect his daughter, and the murderer behind the scenes naturally achieved his goal."

Thinking of this, Chu Nanzhi began to try hard to recall what happened from entering the patriarch's house yesterday.

She remembered that Lin Sanniang said that she had Lin Tingzhen's permission to attend the family banquet, and that Mrs. Zhou said that Mrs. Chen was thinking about Lin Sanniang and specially ordered her to attend.

Even if Lin Tingzhen respects Da Chen, he will not easily compromise on such principles. There is only one thing that can make him break the principles and soften his heart:

His weakness.
