Wang Wenming was just emboldened by alcohol, and he might not even be aware that he was speaking the truth. He just said whatever he wanted to say.

"Why...why don't you let me drink? How does my drinking bother you?"

Lin Yin replied: "Whether you drink or not has nothing to do with me, but if you use my money to drink, then it has something to do with me."

Except for two people, no one else could understand what Lin Yin said.

Wang Wenming said, "I just took some money from you. Who are you showing off to?"

He burped. "My mom said you guys make a lot of money, so you don't need that little bit of cash. What's wrong with me buying some wine?"

He nodded as he spoke: "I'm helping you guys with the work, so can't I treat myself to a drink?"

"Hic... You were the one who deducted the money. I'm your brother, so you have to buy me some drinks."

Lin Yin looked at him and said, "So your way of rewarding yourself is to take most of the money I spent on buying things for you and keep it for yourself, and then use the remaining half to buy inferior products to fool me?"

"They are all useful, why are you being so pretentious?"

Wang Wenming waved his hand and said, "Why do you, a little girl, care so much? You're going to get married anyway, and it has nothing to do with you anymore. That's Lin Han's house, not yours."

"It's my sister Yin's!" Lin Qiang went straight up and pushed Wang Wenming.

"I hate you, don't talk nonsense! That's my brother Han's house and my sister Yin's!"

Lin Qiang glared at Wang Wenming: "Don't you dare say that about my sister Yin? My sister Yin is just great."

"You Lin Qiang!" Wang Wenming was about to catch Lin Qiang.

"You are so bad, Wang Wenming!" A voice came from the door, and Lin Xiu'e rushed up and hit him with her hands.

"Do you think that I, your mother, am old and dare to bully Xiaoqiang and Lin Yin?"

Wang Wenming would definitely not have said what he just said under normal circumstances, but he was drunk and he couldn't even remember what he said or did.

After being hit several times by Lin Xiu'e, he finally came to his senses a little.

"Mother……"

"Don't call me mom. I don't have a drunkard son like you. I asked you to help me, but you dared to secretly deduct money."

Lin Xiu'e heard Lin Yin's words outside.

Wang Wenming was awakened by the beating and began to try to hide.

"Mom, I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again. I really won't dare to do it again."

Lin Xiu'e was so angry that she wanted to beat the dead child to death immediately so that she could apologize to her own brother.

Before leaving, Lin Xiu'e asked Lin Yin what else Wang Wenming had done besides deducting money.

Lin Yin didn't want to answer at first, but Lin Xiu'e rarely had a sullen face, so she forced Lin Yin to answer, so Lin Yin had no choice but to tell the truth.

When she left, she held An Xin's hand, crying sadly and kept saying that she was sorry to An Xin.

It was all her fault. She brought out her prodigal son and not only let Wang Wenming take the money secretly, but also took his bunch of bad friends to the new house to drink. He drank so much that he fell on the table and couldn't wake up.

Lin Xiu'e took out all the money she had and tried to give it to Lin Yin, saying it was compensation.

Lin Yin confiscated it.

Wang Wenming’s character does have some issues, but Lin Xiu’e is a good elder and Lin Yin has always respected her.

After personally escorting Lin Xiu'e and Lin Xiuqin out of the village, Lin Yin met an acquaintance on the way back.

Xu Sanwang and his wife.

The couple returned two days ago after being taken away by County Magistrate Zhou's men.

Judging from their haggard appearance, I guess those days were quite difficult for them.

When they saw Lin Yin, Xu Sanwang and his wife immediately shrank their necks and moved away from her.
