All the elders of the Lin family remained calm, carefully sizing up Lin Yin and Zhang Qimo.
The old matriarch who was sitting at the top also squinted slightly, and his eyes circled around the two of them.
Lin Yin looked as usual, staring straight ahead indifferently, looking at the old lady of the Lin family.
The old lady has white hair, obvious wrinkles on her face, and a sandalwood dragon-headed cane, very dignified.
This old lady of the Lin family is nearly a hundred years old, but she still looks very energetic, her eyes are very different, without a trace of oldness.
After all, as the first wife of the ancestor of the Lin family, this old lady has a lot of background. She was also a peerless master who was well-known in the world in her early years, and she is still in good health.
Lin Yin took a step forward and said, "I've seen the old lady."
Zhang Qimo also said very politely: "I have seen the old lady."
"En, Lin Yin, not bad, not bad." The old lady nodded slightly, with a hint of admiration in her eyes, "You have the demeanor of your great-grandfather when he was young."
"The one next to her is the grandson's daughter-in-law of the old lady, right?"
"Little girl, come to the Lin family. The old lady doesn't know what you like, so I will give you a gift. In this Cangzhou City, if you like something, just pick it." The old lady said calmly, speaking quite atmosphere.
Just as he was talking, two servants of the Lin family came in from the side door, holding the wooden box in both hands, and handed it to Zhang Qimo respectfully.
Zhang Qimo seemed a little nervous, she glanced at Lin Yin, Lin Yin nodded slightly, and then she accepted the gift.
The gift from the old lady to Zhang Qimo was the Lin family's jade plaque, which represented status.
Don't look at it as just a brand, put it in Cangzhou, you can pick whatever you want, including money, power, everything.
"Thank you, Mrs. Madam." Zhang Qimo said respectfully.
"En." The old lady nodded slightly, and then looked at Lin Yin, "You have made a big career in the imperial capital. The old lady heard about it. It is very good, and it has not insulted the reputation of the Lin family. That girl Shuqin gave birth to a good girl." Son."
After a word of praise, the old matriarch paused, changed the subject, and continued: "Lin Yin, do you know what the old lady meant by letting you be the heir candidate of the Lin family? Do you know what this identity means?"
The old lady talked about the topic, Lin Yin said calmly: "I don't know if it's true."
"Hehehe." The old lady laughed a few times, "Your mother Shuqin's matter was considered an old woman's mistake. I owe your family these years. It is a kind of compensation and an affirmation of your ability."
"And with this identity, you have to bear the corresponding responsibilities while gaining the corresponding power and status."
"The old woman is very optimistic about you and intends to burden you. However, many things you did before you came to the Lin family were disputed by the elders. Why don't you explain the situation to the elders? What do you think?"
After finishing speaking, the old lady narrowed her eyes and looked at Lin Yin.
Lin Yin said calmly: "I don't think there is any need to explain."
"Oh?" The old lady frowned slightly, with great interest, "You killed Xiao'er yesterday, he is your elder brother, and you didn't explain the situation? Why?"
Lin Yin said lightly: "Lin Xiao forced me to kill him, so I killed him."
"Presumptuous! You speak wild words and have no respect for your elders! Mr. Xiao is your elder brother, and he is the candidate heir of the Lin family. When you first came to the Lin family, you murdered the elder brothers of the same clan. You didn't take the Lin family seriously at all!" At that time, Lin Xuanhe stood up, scolded Lin Yin, and then looked at the old matriarch, "Old matriarch, this son is too arrogant. He dares to be so arrogant in front of you all the time. I suggest that he be fined a hundred Say it again!"
The old matriarch said slowly: "You don't have to punish at every turn, you use the authority of the elders to oppress the younger generation. Lin Yin, tell me carefully, what did Lin Xiao offend you, why do you have to kill him?"
"There is no reason to kill him." Lin Yin said calmly.
"Lin Xiao is dead, and I want to say more."
"I killed people, what the old lady wants to do, you might as well say it clearly."
"Huh?" The old lady of the Lin family took a deep look at Lin Yin, but said nothing.
Lin Yin is very strong, facing his great-grandmother, not only is he neither humble nor overbearing, he even doesn't take it to heart.
With such a performance, it is no wonder that Lin Yin couldn't bear the provocations of Lin Xuantu and others before, and even killed Lin Xiao who made things difficult for him.
This son is very angry.
This is the old lady's first impression of Lin Yin.
"Lin Yin, you are too presumptuous! A younger generation, all the elders of your family present here, the old lady is even your great-grandmother. Even your grandfather dare not speak like that. Is this your attitude?" Lin Xuanming pondered Said loudly.
"You killed Lin Xiao, according to the family rules, the family law should be enforced, and you will be abolished from martial arts! Stripped of your status as an heir!"
As he spoke, Lin Xuanming looked at the old matriarch, and said, "Old matriarch, this son is unreasonable. There is no need to reason with him anymore. I implore the old matriarch to take back his status as heir , Allow me to use the authority of the elders, take him down to the back mountain, and abolish martial arts."
"I agree with the proposal of the second elder. This son does not have the magnanimity of the Lin family at all. He behaves arrogantly and ruthlessly. He is not worthy to be the heir of the Lin family at all."
"Old Madam, I also agree..."
All of a sudden, several high-ranking elders scolded Lin Yin one after another, thinking of the old lady's suggestion.
The atmosphere became tense all of a sudden, and even Lin Xuanye, who was standing by the side, became tense.
Yes, in his opinion, Lin Yin was indeed a bit forceful when facing the old matriarch, and now Lin Xuanming seized the opportunity to attack.
Lin Yin sneered, and said: "My martial arts are not passed down by the Lin family, why should the Lin family abolish my martial arts? Your Second Elder, what right do you have to take my identity?"
"Lin Xiao is your good-for-nothing grandson. He is inferior to others. He was killed by me one-on-one. What else can you say?"
"If everyone is like you, the young ones can't do it, and the old ones come again, then the Lin family will really be looked down upon."
After finishing speaking, Lin Yin shook his head.
"You! You!" Lin Xuanming looked angry, and was irritated by Lin Yin's words.
Lin Xuanming took a breath, calmed down, and said: "Old Madam, I will not let Xiaoer die. This son killed his brother, and he has no regrets, and still provokes me like this. Please give me a regulation .”
Hearing this, the old lady frowned slightly.
She wanted to protect Lin Yin, but she couldn't go too far.
Now Lin Yin is even tearing up his face with the second elder face to face.
"Xuanming, it is true that Lin Yin's martial arts were not taught by the Lin family, and the Lin family is not qualified to accept his martial arts." The old matriarch said slowly, "I also heard from a few juniors in the Canghai Tower that Xiao'er was indeed raped one-on-one. Killed by Lin Yin, there are also rules in the hidden world circle, if you are killed by fighting martial arts, you can't blame others."
Then, the old lady looked at Lin Yin again, and said seriously: "Lin Yin, you killed Xiao'er after all, and it's unreasonable not to punish you."
