Chapter 316 The Patriarch's Weakness

Chapter 316 The Patriarch’s Weakness

Lin Jinxiao stood up lonely, not expecting that the fun would end before it even started.

He glanced at the proud Chu Nanzhi with cold eyes, and thought to himself: "I really have you."

Ignoring Lin Yuan and the old Chen couple, they walked out of the yard angrily.

"Da Lang."

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

Lin Jinxiao slowly came back to his senses, and looked at his 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 enough."

Lin Yuan was frightened by the cold light he cast, and replied tremblingly: "Yes, Jin Xiao, my uncle already told your aunt as soon as he came home yesterday that she will not seduce your mother again.

"

"Why, you don't dare to seduce my stepmother anymore, and now my uncle is going to fight in person?"

Lin Jinxiao raised his eyebrows slightly and sneered coldly.

"Da Lang, my uncle is doing this for your own good."

Mrs. Chen persuaded with a serious attitude: "We are all one family. Your grandfather and your third uncle are brothers from the same mother. My uncle will never harm you."

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

Lin Jinxiao sneered with disdain: "I wonder when I was living abroad and couldn't even have enough to eat, did my third uncle ever think that we were a family?

I was hit hard by the tax bank case and my life was in danger. My stepmother and her family were in trouble for my wife and I. Instead of trying to dissuade me, 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 intimidating repeated questioning made Da Chen feel ashamed and speechless.

"I, Lin Jinxiao, don't hold grudges, but I am tolerant but also tolerant. I advise my third uncle to do everything in moderation and think twice before taking any action."

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

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

She had never heard anyone talk about the relationship between the ancestors of the Lin family. When she left the courtyard, she couldn't help but asked curiously: "Jin Hui, how come your third uncle and your brother Jin Xiao's grandfather are brothers from the same mother and father?"

?”

"Isn't it similar?"

Lin Jinhui smiled bitterly and said: "Actually, my grandfather, third uncle and fifth uncle, that is, brother Jinxiao's grandfather, are all from the same mother. The fifth uncle was sick since he was a child, and later the family was divided. In order to provide for his uncle's illness, the fifth uncle

I moved out of here to study with my uncle and went to Anlin Village."

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

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

Let's get over it."

"I see."

Chu Nanzhi nodded in sudden realization.

No wonder Chen and Lin Yuan are so keen on interfering in the family affairs of Lin Jinxiao and Jinhui, and they think it's natural for them to do so.

On her way back last night, she had heard Lin Jinxiao mention that her ancestors had sold properties and fields to the old patriarch at a low price, but she had never heard him mention the relationship between the families.

If Lin Jinhui hadn't made it clear at this time, she would have even felt that the clan leader and she were just uncle-nephew from the same clan, which shows that his good impression of these clansmen has long since cooled down.

Back in the living room, Lin Jinxiao only took out some plasters and went straight to the study. Liu Yun, Sang Kun, and Sang Qi were waiting in the hall. When they saw Chu Nanzhi leading Lin Jinhui back, she felt much more at ease.

Looking at the scars on Lin Jinhui's neck, Liu Yun quickly took the plaster and wiped it for her distressedly: "You silly girl, why are you so stubborn? If I had known this, I should have asked your sister-in-law to force you to stay here.

"

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

Lin Jinhui smiled warmly: "And I will never do anything stupid again in the future."

"That's good."

Liu Yun nodded with relief and told Sang Kun, Sang Qi, brother and sister to go back and rest.

Chu Nanzhi looked around and saw no sign of the quadruplets, so she asked casually: "Have the babies fallen asleep?"

"I came down after putting them all to sleep."

Liu Yun turned her head and looked in the direction of the study, lowered her voice and asked in a low voice: "Da Zhi, are you okay if you go over? I don't seem to be happy when I look at Da Lang?"

"fine."

Chu Nanzhi smiled calmly: "I guess he has brought back some old memories and it will be fine tomorrow."

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

Anyway, I can leave him alone tonight.

Liu Yun lowered her eyebrows and thought for a while, then nodded doubtfully, applied the medicine to Lin Jinhui, and then warned: "Then you should take Jinhui to rest quickly. There will be handymen to repair the yard tomorrow."

"Okay, mother, let's go too. I'll take care of you here."

After sending Liu Yun back to the backyard, Chu Nanzhi casually looked at 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 on the bed, and after Lin Jinhui fell asleep, in the dark room, Chu Nanzhi's thoughts slowly came back, and he continued to think about the train of thought that had been interrupted just now.

How could everyone unanimously turn their suspicions on the Zhou mother and daughter without any human or material evidence? This probably has to be traced back to the grudge between the sister-in-law and Lin Sanniang.

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

Lin Jinhui had a dispute with Lin Sanniang and had deep grudges. It would be more convincing to blame her on her, but in the end it happened to be the Zhou family.

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

The Lin family are all kind-hearted people. At the formal family banquet last night, Lin Tingzhen didn't even invite the younger members of the clan. How could he let the concubine born of his concubine be included in the banquet?

Furthermore, she asked Lin Sanniang to go to the door to greet her, which was obviously illegal.

"The most important point is that the Lin clan members knew that Jin Hui and Lin Sanniang were not on good terms, yet they still forced her to attend the banquet. Isn't it clear that someone was deliberately trying to stir up trouble?"

From this point of view, someone must be behind the scenes to stir up trouble and make the situation bigger and more tense.

"I'm afraid that this is a long-planned conspiracy to intensify the conflict between the two sisters to the point of incompetence, incite people to be one-sided, and then kill Lin Sanniang, making everyone believe that it was the sister-in-law who killed the concubine.

, and then Ms. Zhou had no choice but to plead guilty in order to protect her daughter, and the murderer behind the scenes successfully achieved his goal."

Thinking of this, Chu Nanzhi began to think hard about what happened when she entered the patriarch's house yesterday.

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

No matter how much Lin Tingzhen respected the Chen family, he would not easily compromise on such matters of principle. There was only one thing that could make him break his principles and soften his mind:

His weakness.
