Our Mommy is the Best Investigator!

  Chapter 120 Promise

After listening for a while, Liu Shuyang hated Chen's heinous actions for a long time. He frowned and scolded angrily: "This old dog really ransacked the house, he didn't even let a salt jar go. .”

   Gritting his teeth, he stared at Chu Nanzhi, patted his chest fiercely, and promised: "Don't worry, elder sister, I swear to the death that I will bring you back all the stitches that the old lady stole intact."

   After speaking, he went to chase after the youngsters of the Lin family.

   With Liu Shuyang, the shit-stirring stick, to stir it up, Chu Nanzhi felt much more at ease, and she didn't worry that Mrs. Chen would not obediently bring the salt jar back.

  As for the few pieces of jewelry, she has long looked down on them, and she would not care if they did not come back.

  Watching the young adults leave, Chu Nanzhi calmly dragged Liu Yun and Mrs. Zhou into the house to tidy up the living room.

While tidying up the messy room, Liu Yun vented frowningly, "Dazhi, what are you thinking? I think Dalang cares about you a lot now, why do you need to protect him in front of the Lin family?" That old lady, we can't bear this kind of cowardice, if you don't tell the head of the Lin family about such a valuable dowry, if old lady Chen hides it, then you will really die for your mother."

   "Mother doesn't need to ask, I have my own reasons."

  Chu Nanzhi smiled mysteriously at her: "Today, mother puts her heart in her stomach, and I will definitely get the salt jar back for you."

   Mrs. Zhou also took advantage of the situation and interjected: "Sister-in-law is a smart person, don't worry, Aunt Liu, sister-in-law will definitely have a way."

  Liu Yun pursed her mouth in doubt, and stopped talking, and went to clean the living room on her own with a sullen face.

  Outside the courtyard, the people of the Lin clan and Lin Jinxiao's son-in-law exchanged greetings into the hall, and Chu Nanzhi heard every word clearly:

"Da Lang, I have wronged you all these years. I thought Mrs. Chen treated you well, so we uncles never asked about your family. A while ago I heard that that **** Er Lang committed crimes and went to prison. After searching around, I found out that you are not doing well in the village."

   "It's all in the past, and the uncle of the clan doesn't have to worry about it."

  Lin Jinxiao interrupted the patriarch Lin Tingzhen, with a bitter smile on his cold face: "My nephew took the liberty of inviting some elders over today, but I just hope that the patriarch and uncles can make a fair decision and give my family an explanation."

Lin Tingzhen smiled and said with concern: "Don't worry, Dalang, the Chen family has already been notorious for being cold by nature. She is a mother in vain and cannot be tolerated by my Lin family anymore. You two just need to wait and wait." I asked your uncles and I to find out the ins and outs, and immediately cleared her mother and son from the genealogy, and from then on, her house has nothing to do with you or our entire Lin family."

The neighbors were immediately overjoyed when they heard it. Without the protection of the Lin clan, everyone will no longer have to worry about the dead county magistrate Lin. If the Chen clan does evil again, it is logical to punish her .

Hearing the sudden commotion in the yard, Lin Tingzhen couldn't bear it any longer, and said to the neighbors angrily and ashamedly: "Today, I am here to solve the affairs of the clan. Divide the thin noodles, let's go first, I also know how much Chen's mother and son have disturbed you all these years, and I will give you a satisfactory explanation today."

   "That's not okay."

   Blacksmith Zhao first disobeyed: "Patriarch Lin, today we are not only for the Dalang family, but also for ourselves, so we will not leave until we see the Chen family being punished with our own eyes."

The rest of the neighbors also echoed: "That's right, Patriarch Lin, today's matter is not only about your Lin family, but also the whole village. These years, their mother and son have been doing evil in the village, but you, the patriarch, and the elders of the Lin family have turned a deaf ear to it. We have to see with our own eyes that Chen is punished."

The egg vendor at the entrance of the village glared fiercely at the three elders, and said bluntly, "Third uncle of the Lin family, don't think I don't know, that Mrs. Chen is the niece of Mrs. Chen of your family. In the village, the two of you, instead of admonishing and teaching, have been favoritism time and time again, and you are the leader of the clan in vain."

Hearing this, third uncle Lin Yuan was furious on the spot, angrily took out a parchment scroll from his bosom, held it up in his hand and signaled to everyone righteously: "Don't talk nonsense, here is the genealogy, Chen If you really commit crimes, this old man will never forgive you lightly."

  Although he said so on his lips, he still held a bit of luck in his heart.

   After all, she is the wife's niece, so it's not good to just watch her being bullied.

Since King Pingning's lineage cut down the vassal order two hundred years ago, these generations have not been as good as the next generation. Finally, a county magistrate of the seventh rank was found on Lin Ting's book. At the beginning, Lin Yuan disregarded his wife's objection and used her niece as a matchmaker. Renewing the family nephew, I thought it would be a good thing to honor the lintel, but I never thought that Lin Tingshu would die after only three years in the family, making the Chen family a widow, it was really unexpected.

  If you don’t clean up your own shit, you will definitely be scolded when you get home. At this age, you still have to show some dignity in front of the whole family.

And Lin Tingzhen had already weighed the pros and cons before coming here today. Today's nephew and daughter-in-law are celebrities in the county, and he also got word from the county government officials that the clan nephew is very likely to become the next county lieutenant, in charge of the whole country. The county guard, a real local snake, if he doesn't even have this kind of vision, how can he lead the Lin clan again.

  Furthermore, the Chen family's smearing of the family has reached the point where everyone is indignant, for their own sake and for the clan, so today they have to do business no matter what, and can no longer turn to the third uncle and the Chen family.

Hearing Lin Yuan's resolute tone, he also took advantage of the opportunity to promise to the neighbors: "My third uncle has always been a man of his word, and what he says will definitely count. Please rest assured, I will go and invite Liu Lizheng to come forward next time." Come to watch and hear the judgment, there will never be any partiality, it is just about the internal affairs of the clan, everyone, please leave first."

  When Lin Yuan heard this, his entire face turned dark.

  The neighbors can't argue anymore, after all, it's their family's business, so for the time being, they can only believe what he said, and each leave angrily.

After waiting for the neighbors to disperse, Lin Tingzhen helped Lin Jinxiao and Chu Wenbi Weng's son-in-law, and said cordially: "Let's go, Brother Chu, Dalang, let's go indoors to enjoy the shade first, and wait for the juniors to take Chen Shi brings questions."

  Weng and his son-in-law were quite convinced by what he said just now, so they followed him into the house with peace of mind.

In the living room, Chu Nanzhi and Liu Yun had already cleaned up the house. Mrs. Zhou lit a fire to boil the water, made a pot of tea, and led everyone to sit down in the hall. Lin Tingzhen blew on the tea in the bowl Tea, while squinting at Chu Wenbi and his wife from the corner of the eye, he praised full of praise:

"My old sister and brother Chu gave birth to a good daughter. Recently, I have heard a lot about my nephew and daughter-in-law in the county. I feel that my face is bright when I walk on the street. The two of you have raised a house for our Lin family. Daughter-in-law, I, the Lin family, will always remember this kindness in my heart."

  The semi-circular old face is both attentive and enthusiastic, and never refuses to talk about things that were a few years in advance.

Chu Wenbi grinned meaningfully, and replied with a smile: "Don't dare to be, dare not be, it's Dalang's own blessing, we parents are nothing more than relying on the grace of birth, as for the misfortunes and blessings of our children It depends on their own creation."

  Remarks that were neither humble nor arrogant, made the elders of the Lin family feel very disheartened.

  Indeed, since Lin Tingshu's death, they had given up hope in this lineage, and after hearing that Lin Jinxiao had married the daughter of a merchant family, they were even more reluctant to associate with this family.

   If it is said that he made friends with a rich merchant like Zhao Taigong, it would be excusable, but it is really chilling to lose the integrity of a nobleman just for five hundred taels of silver.

   What people didn't expect was that the couple had undergone earth-shaking changes in just over a month. Lin Tingzhen had to look at the couple with new eyes.

   And right now is an opportunity, and I don't know if it's too late to remedy it.
