Chapter 536 The Jade Pendant (1)
536 The Jade Pendant (1)
"Lunch…" It was time for lunch.
Zhao Shanshan looked at Lin Xiaoyue.
Only then did Lin Xiaoyue remember that it was getting late. At the same time, she felt hungry.
"Then let"s go after lunch." "Yes." Zhao Shanshan hurried to the kitchen to inform them about lunch.
After lunch, Liu Shi was tired and returned to the backyard to rest.
Lin Xiaoyue was just about to leave to look for Zhao Shanshan and the others when she was stopped by Li Xiao.
After asking for the reason, Li Xiao suggested that they go together.
Lin Xiaoyue agreed.
Thus, the group left the Liu residence and headed towards the Lin family.
At this moment, the Lin family was no longer noisy.
They were eating.
Lin Xiaoyue and the others split into two groups.
She brought Zhao Shanshan and Li Xiao directly to Old Madam Lin"s house. Fan Teng and Zhao Qiang went to Fourth Uncle Lin"s house.
When Lin Xiaoyue and the others arrived, Old Madam Lin saw Lin Xiaoyue and rushed up to close the door.
However, Li Xiao almost broke the door.
Old Madam Lin staggered and fell to the ground.
Then, before she could howl, Li Xiao interrupted her.
"Shut up, or else you"ll be dead." His voice was cold and fierce, scaring Old Madam Lin so much that her body trembled and she did not dare to move.
When Old Master Lin saw that Lin Xiaoyue and the others were coming menacingly and looked like they were not to be trifled with, he felt uneasy and did not even dare to go forward to help Old Madam Lin.
Lin Yuanshan, who was in the room, heard the commotion outside.
"Is that b * tch here? Lin Xiaoyue, are you here?" He shouted outside.
Lin Xiaoyue frowned when she heard that.
Li Xiao couldn"t take it anymore.
He went straight into the house and dragged Lin Yuanshan out as he wailed.
Then, he threw Lin Yuanshan to the ground as if he was a piece of rotten meat.
"Ah! It hurts! Ah!" Lin Yuanshan hugged his newly injured leg and cried out heartbreakingly. However, he didn"t dare to say anything bad.
He did not expect Li Xiao to come as well.
Moreover, he was ruthless, as if he was ready to kill him at any time. Although he hated Lin Xiaoyue, he didn"t want to die in Li Xiao"s hands.
Lin Xiaoyue looked at Lin Yuanshan"s injuries.
He still had the energy to curse at her. It seemed that his injuries were not serious enough.
Li Xiao did not care about them. He went to the table to get a stool and placed it beside Lin Xiaoyue.
"Sit while you"re waiting." He said to Lin Xiaoyue.
Lin Xiaoyue"s lips curled up and she sat down.
The scene looked strange.
Lin Xiaoyue, the troublemaker, sat there like a host.
The three people from the Lin family who originally lived here were either sitting on the ground or standing far away like stray dogs.
The room was silent.
Soon, Fan Teng and Zhao Qiang brought Fourth Uncle Lin over.
To the surprise of Lin Xiaoyue and the others, there was someone following behind him.
Lin Xiaoyue had never seen that person before, but it was not difficult to guess her ident.i.ty. She should be the widow from the neighboring village that he married.
The worry in the woman"s eyes did not seem to be fake, which surprised Lin Xiaoyue.
He was pushed into the house by Fan Teng.
He glanced at the miserable appearance of the Lin family in the room and quickly found a place to stand.
He lowered her head, not daring to look at Lin Xiaoyue and Li Xiao.
Lin Xiaoyue"s gaze swept across the faces of the Lin family members in the room. Seeing that everyone had their heads lowered and looked listless, she found it a little funny.
"Tell me, why is my mother"s jade pendant in your hands? How did you guys p.a.w.n the jade pendant?" Lin Xiaoyue said.
As soon as she said that, their shoulders trembled.
The two elders of the Lin family could not answer at all.
Fourth Uncle Lin suddenly raised his head, took a step forward, and spoke.
"I have nothing to do with it. The jade pendant was p.a.w.ned by mother, and she gave me 50 taels of silver. I"ve already handed it over!"
Old Madam Lin"s expression changed.
She suddenly crawled forward and grabbed his leg.
"What bulls.h.i.t are you talking about? Where did the jade pendant and money come from?!" As she roared, she gave him a look.
This b.a.s.t.a.r.d confessed the moment he arrived. How stupid was he?
Fourth Uncle Lin"s expression changed.
"The money for Yuanshan"s treatment is ours. I only gave you 50 taels because you were filial and helped me out."
"Now that Yuanshan is injured again, I"m just asking you to return the money, but you"re actually spewing sh * t and slandering your mother!" As she spoke, Old Madam Lin raised her fist and punched Fourth Uncle Lin"s leg.
