597 The Vegetables are Spoilt?
Originally, Lin Daniu and Li Hehua were supposed to accompany Lin Laosan and his wife to the county. However, on that day, Lin Daniu ate something that he shouldn’t have eaten. After having diarrhea for a whole day, he was so weak that he couldn’t go to the county at all. Li Hehua had to stay behind to take care of Lin Daniu. As for Lin Siniu, he had to stay behind to work. Chen Xiaoqing, who was involved in this, was currently bedridden by the Lin family.
Hence, only Lin Laosan, li Cuihua, and Zhou Guixiang accompanied Lin Sanniu to the Yamen.
However, Zhou Guixiang was filled with regret. If she had known this would be the result, she would have stayed in the Lin family Village instead of having to worry and fear for the whole day and endure the unpleasant smell of urine.
Zhou guixiang jumped off the carriage and glanced at Lin yuelan nervously. Then, she answered carefully, ” fourth master, father, and third brother was punished by the county Magistrate and got 30 flogs.”
!!
When they heard that Lin Laosan and Lin Sanniu had been caned at the county government office, they were all shocked.
“Er Niu’s wife, can you be more specific? What’s going on? Didn’t they go to the county government to complain about the girl being unfilial? How did they become punished?”
Zhou guixiang said, ” fourth master, there’s something you don’t know. That girl brought up the incident three years ago, and then father and third brother were sentenced for attempted murder. Then, they were both beaten up.”
“b.a.s.t.a.r.d!” Fourth uncle flew into a rage. “how dare you to spread this in public!”
Although this was Lin Laosan’s family, it could also be said to be the Lin family Village’s family scandal.
Since it was a family scandal, of course, it was better to cover it up. How could it be revealed?
“that girl, does she even think of herself as a Lin family villager? ” Fourth uncle said angrily, ” besides, one is her biological grandfather, and the other is her biological father. How could she be so unfilial and ask the magistrate to punish them in court? ”
Hearing the fourth master’s harsh criticism of Lin yuelan, Zhou guixiang was secretly happy. However, she still looked very afraid and carefully said, ” fourth master, I’m afraid you don’t know, but the magistrate and this girl are very close. It seems that the magistrate is obviously biased toward that girl. And that girl just stood aside and watched coldly when her own father was beaten.”
“What?” Upon hearing that the magistrate was very familiar with Lin yuelan, the surrounding villagers were immediately surprised, ” that girl is actually familiar with the magistrate? ”
Zhou guixiang nodded, then pointed to the elegant young man beside Lin yuelan and said, ” that’s the son of the county Magistrate!”
When everyone heard this, they immediately turned around and looked at him with shock on their faces. “I remember that he came to the Lin family Village before. Is he really the son of the county Magistrate? ”
Zhou Guixiang nodded and replied, ” yes!
For people like them who had only lived in the mountain village, they had never seen the world. To be able to see the mayor and say a few words to him was the greatest and most dignified official they had ever seen.
As for the district Magistrate, they didn’t even dare to think about it. Unless they were involved in a lawsuit, it was simply unimaginable to see the district Magistrate and be on good terms with him.
But now, even though they hadn’t seen the magistrate, his son had appeared in the Lin family Village. This made the Lin family villagers excited and happy but at the same time, nervous and afraid.
“Hey, if you’re so free, hurry up and move her away. I still have to rush back before dark.”
Just as everyone was surprised by the appearance of the Zhou family’s eldest son, an unfamiliar voice suddenly rang out.
The man continued, ” even though that lady offered me a high price to bring you back, your Lin family Village is too remote. If I return late and something happens on the way back, are any of you going to pay me?
“I thought I could make a profit by offering a high price, but this carriage is full of blood and urine. The smell is really bad. How can I do business in the future?” Although the last few sentences were muttered by himself, his voice was not soft.
