She became foolish after losing a soul and a spirit, mocked by the world.
On her fifteenth birthday, due to an issue with her engagement, her cousin pushed her into a river. This misfortune t...
Chapter 63 Lin Luoxi makes her entrance carrying a cleaver used for killing chickens.
“What are you saying, Great-Grandfather? He invited you outsiders to dinner, so it’s only natural for me, as his elder brother, and my parents, as his parents, to eat at his dinner.”
Lin Daguang wasn't angry at being scolded so harshly by his great-grandfather. Instead, he smiled and said things that his great-grandfather couldn't refute.
"Hmph, shameless." The clan elder was furious at Lin Daguang's shameless words, but it was Lin Dayou who had suggested treating everyone.
If Lin Dayou doesn't object, then it's meaningless for him to say anything more.
“Who said you’re my elder brother, or who are my parents? We’re no longer related. I’m not on your family’s genealogy. Even if you go to the yamen, I’ll still say the same thing.”
"Also, my invitation to the clan elders and the village chief to my home is a private matter and has nothing to do with you."
“I invited these brothers to my house for dinner because yesterday, my daughter was in trouble on the mountain. They came up the mountain with me without hesitation to look for her. I can never forget this great kindness.”
It means that he only hires those who are willing to help him; he naturally wouldn't hire those who aren't.
Lin Dayou was furious when he saw Lin Daguang's shameless attempt to continue clinging to him.
Before the family ties were severed, he was exploited by Lin Daguang in the same way. Now that the ties are severed, he is still like a leech, coming to him whenever there is any noise. It's disgusting.
Now that he is alone with Lin Daguang, he knows what it feels like to utterly despise someone.
Ignoring Lin Daguang's grim expression, they bypassed him and led the group forward.
"Lin Dayou, you've really grown up! You're inviting so many outsiders to eat, but not giving me, your father, or your older brother a single bite to eat! You're a heartless bastard!" Old Mrs. Wu, who had come after hearing the commotion, immediately launched into a tirade upon hearing Lin Dayou's words.
Furthermore, she sat directly in front of Lin Dayou and the others, implying that if they wanted to pass through, they would have to step over her body.
When Lin Daguang saw his mother start to throw a tantrum, he sat down, blocking Lin Dayou's only way home.
Lin Dayou's eyelids twitched as he watched the mother and son block his way home.
The initial soft spot I had for the Lin family vanished with the appearance and unreasonable antics of these two.
The young men following behind him blushed and became embarrassed when they saw Lin Daguang and his mother making such a scene.
They sidled up to Lin Dayou and suggested that they get together another time, instead of this one.
At this point, Lin Dayou was completely at a loss, not knowing what to do. He was caught in a pincer movement and couldn't back down.
Just as I was about to nod and agree to meet the young people again next time, heavenly music reached my ears.
"Father, you take Grandfather and Uncle Village Chief, and all the brothers, step back a few steps. I'll handle things here." Lin Luoxi had prepared all the food at home, but when she still didn't see Lin Dayou and the elders arrive, she knew something had happened on the way.
In such a small village, the only thing that could hold Lin Dayou back was the Lin family.
Holding a kitchen knife that had been used to kill a chicken that morning and hadn't yet wiped the blood clean, he instructed Lin Wenqian and Xie Hanchuan, who was already helping, to keep an eye on the house and prevent thieves from getting in, before hurrying off to find Lin Dayou.
I hadn't gone far from the hospital gate when I heard that disgusting voice coming from not far away.
She's really not giving up. Today is supposed to be her day to become an apprentice. If she dares to cause trouble on this day, let's see who's tougher.
He walked quickly toward the source of the sound and, sure enough, saw Lin Dayou and his group being blocked by Lin Lao Wu and her son.
“Yesterday, I used the tip of this knife to shove it into the tiger’s throat.”
"But the situation was too tense and critical at the time, so I didn't get to properly experience killing a tiger. But today, I really want to experience it," Lin Luoxi said leisurely.
He raised the cleaver, still stained with chicken blood, and glared at the mother and son sitting on the ground with a wicked look, then slowly walked towards them.
"My God, has Lin Dayou's silly girl gone mad again? The way she looks at me is like she wants to kill someone." The villagers who were watching were so frightened by Lin Luoxi's actions that they all took several steps back and moved away from her.
"Yes, look at her eyes, they're really terrifying. I can't look anymore, I'm afraid she'll come at me with a kitchen knife in a minute."
"Everyone, don't make eye contact with Lin Daya. If she spots you, we're doomed."
"You've all forgotten, she killed a tiger all by herself in the mountains yesterday. She's probably got a tiger-killing addiction; this time, she's going to find someone to kill one..."
"That's right, she's just a madwoman. Even if she killed someone, she probably wouldn't go to jail." Someone in the crowd was enthusiastically inciting the villagers.
When Lin Luoxi heard about the person who ruined her reputation, she wanted to laugh. She really wanted to thank this person. With this person helping to spread the word, it would be reasonable for her to do something later!
"So it was you who blocked my father's way?" Lin Luoxi feigned a knife strike at the old lady in front.
As Grandma Lin sat on the ground, she began to feel apprehensive upon hearing the discussions around her.
Now, seeing Lin Luoxi's blood-stained kitchen knife coming at her, her body began to tremble.
Lin Luoxi had little patience for Lin Daguang, who was sitting to the side, and threw the bloody kitchen knife in her hand at him.
"Ah, ah, ah, Mother, help me!" Seeing the kitchen knife flying straight towards him, Lin Daguang used his fastest speed ever to scramble away from the scene.
"Heh, don't run away, I haven't had enough fun yet." Lin Luoxi murmured with regret as she saw Lin Daguang escape.
He walked over, picked up the stick that had been stuck in the spot where Lin Daguang had been sitting, and held it in his hand with a look of regret.
"Luckily, there's still one left. Not bad." After saying that, he revealed a wicked smile, looked at Old Madam Lin, and slowly walked towards her.
"No, no, don't come any closer..." Old Mrs. Lin was traumatized by Lin Luoxi these past few days, and she believed that Lin Luoxi was really capable of killing her.
Before Lin Luoxi could even swing the cleaver at her, she scrambled to her feet, rushed into the crowd, and dared not come out again.
Lin Daguang and his mother fled in panic, and some unkind people in the crowd began to laugh loudly.
Someone started laughing, and the others realized what was happening and burst into laughter as well.
"Father, take the clan elder, the village chief, and all the brothers home. I'll cover the rear." Lin Luoxi, holding a kitchen knife, stood to the side of the road and gestured for them to come home.
"Girl, well done." The clan elder praised Lin Luoxi with appreciation. This girl was really to his liking. He had long wanted to do the same to that bunch of shameless bastards in the Lin family.
