Chapter 312 Sister-in-law angrily criticizes third uncle
The courtyard of patriarch Lin Tingzhen's house was in chaos. From the outer courtyard to the inner courtyard, servants were busy and busy.
Ming'er walked in front, leading Chu Nanzhi and Mi'er as they hurried to Lin Jinhui's courtyard and explained:
"The mistress was imprisoned, and the master accompanied Jiang Xiaoniang to Puluo'an. The only old nun who could help the mistress also went to Beijing to serve with my young man and my wife at the beginning of the year. Now the house is also
There is no one in charge, and when something like this happens suddenly, everyone is in a panic, and everything becomes a mess."
"Have you sent someone to ask the clan leader to come back?"
Chu Nanzhi also asked anxiously.
"Someone has gone."
Ming'er said: "Sister Ying'er went to ask two servants from the outer courtyard to go to the county captain's house to apply for a pass certificate, and has already gone to Puluo'an."
Chu Nanzhi nodded thoughtfully: "There is a curfew in the city at this point. Even if you can go out, I'm afraid it will be difficult for your master to come back before the fifth watch."
While they were talking, they had already arrived at the door of Lin Jinhui's attic. Before they went upstairs, they heard a rapid coughing sound.
Ming'er heard the voice of her master, and she was so happy that she immediately left Chu Nanzhi behind and rushed forward, shouting excitedly: "Second mother is awake."
Upon seeing this, Chu Nanzhi followed Mi'er and immediately went upstairs. When she arrived in the bedroom, she saw Ying'er supporting Lin Jinhui and patting her on the back, her tearful eyes filled with sadness and anxiety.
Seeing Chu Nanzhi come in, Ying'er carefully placed her next to the bedside, sobbed and came over to greet her: "Ms. Chu, please persuade Er Niang. The slaves finally rescued Er Niang, but Er Niang is still
She wanted to seek life and death, but she refused to drink any of the red date and black-bone chicken soup sent by the cook."
Chu Nanzhi frowned tightly and slowly sat on the edge of the bed. She looked at her sister-in-law who kept crying. The corners of her eyes were so dry and red and swollen that she couldn't even shed a single tear. There was also a fresh red mark on her neck, which made her feel uncomfortable.
.
She half-squinted her eyes and said in a deep voice: "Why are you doing this? Even if you hang yourself in the room, you can't save your mother."
Lin Jinhui sobbed several times and rolled up the quilt over her head in frustration, not wanting anyone to see her miserable state at this moment.
Seeing her desperate look, Chu Nanzhi felt confused in her heart. She pulled away the quilt and said loudly: "Jin Hui, if you really think your mother was wronged, you should cheer up.
Come and find a way to avenge your mother."
After a few seconds of silence, she continued: "Do you think someone can sympathize with you and pity you if you are like this? You will only make the people who framed your mother and daughter more proud and happy."
After hearing what she said, Lin Jinhui couldn't bear it any longer, buried herself in her arms and cried bitterly: "Sister-in-law, I don't want this either, but I see my mother has no way to live, and I have no way to do it. I'm sad."
, I was the one who harmed my mother. If I hadn’t been too willful and insisted on showing off my bravery with Lin Sanniang, how could my mother have suffered such a simple injustice?"
"That's complete nonsense."
Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, a vicious scolding sounded outside the house:
"Sanniang died in her own house. The murder weapon was found in your mother's courtyard. She also confessed. Who could unjustly accuse her?
On the contrary, you are a dead girl. When I put you back, you didn’t calm down and think about it. Instead, you were looking for trouble. Do you think this family is not chaotic enough?"
When Chu Nanzhi heard the news, she saw that it was the third uncle, Mrs. Chen, who was leading her daughter-in-law up in annoyance. She immediately darkened her face in annoyance.
This old woman is really unpleasant to look at.
My sister-in-law almost lost her life. She didn't have any human feelings at all, so she came and gave me a fierce scolding.
How can any elder do this?
Mrs. Chen arrived at the room and glanced at Chu Nanzhi and Lin Jinhui with a cold expression. Seeing that this stinky girl was doing well, her expression even lost:
"Isn't this dead? It's like howling in mourning. It makes the whole Chongrenfang uneasy. I'm afraid that others don't know that this scandal in the family is not big enough."
"If Third Uncle can speak, just speak. If you can't speak, no one will treat you as a mute."
Chu Nan Zhi was furious and scolded her with slightly trembling eyebrows.
"Girl Nanzhi, why are you talking to your elders?"
Mrs. Chen felt that this grandson's daughter-in-law was becoming more arrogant and domineering, so she cursed fiercely: "Don't think that no one will take notice of you now that you are an official's wife. Jin Xiao is sitting in the hall right now.
, your uncles are all here, and you have been arrogant and rude again and again, so it is not too much for me to ask him to divorce you."
I can't wait to do it.
This thought suddenly flashed through Chu Nanzhi's mind, and she said bluntly in front of the Chen family:
"In the final analysis, this is Jinhui's home, after all. When you are a guest, you should behave like a guest, and when you are an elder, you should behave like an elder. If you must act like an elder, you should interfere unreasonably in other people's family affairs and act against the guests at all times.
, disturbing other families' homes, I can only stay away from such elders."
"Girl Nanzhi, what do you mean by this? Could it be that I instigated the Zhou family to harm Sanniang, and that I have made their family uneasy?"
Mrs. Chen was very angry when she heard this and stared at Chu Nanzhi fiercely: "As the elder of the Lin family, can't I say a few words to you juniors?"
"If you uphold justice, the juniors will naturally respect you and be willing to listen to your instructions."
"How could I be unjust?"
Da Chen asked sharply.
Lin Jinhui finally couldn't bear this old woman. This time, before Chu Nanzhi could reply, she suddenly became furious and said:
"Third uncle, this is my home, not yours, let alone Lin's ancestral hall. If you sincerely come to my home as a guest, I welcome you, but if you insist on treating yourself as an outsider, then the younger generation will have no choice but to invite you out.
"
Stimulated by what her sister-in-law had just said, and without her mother's obstruction, her years of pent-up resentment completely burst out at this moment:
"Since you like to meddle in other people's affairs so much, and Auntie is right in front of you, you'd better go home and clean up the mess in your own house before you interfere with other people's affairs.
Look at your two nieces. One is doing sneaky things in the village all day long, which has disgraced your Chen family and the Lin family. The other is so suppressed by a group of concubines that you personally brought in that she can't even lift her head.
,Aren’t these things enough for you to worry about?
You, your biological aunt, don't take care of your niece, but you help the incompetent Jiang Xiaoniang all day long to embarrass my mother. What are you trying to do?"
"Lin Jinhui, you are such a disrespectful little girl, and you have rebelled against me. You really think that no one can deal with you, a bitch like you. Let me see if I don't tear up your stinky mouth today."
Mrs. Chen was so angry that she almost spit out a mouthful of blood, and was about to come forward and beat her in anger.
