Chapter 97: Going out to find Lin Dayou, the moral blackmail begins.

"Luo Xi, where did you buy this big pork leg?" Xie Hanchuan frowned when he saw Lin Luo Xi carrying a big pork leg.

These past few days, when I went to the county, they all stayed together. Although I had seen Lin Luoxi buy pork, I had never seen her buy pork leg.

"Oh, I asked my mother to buy this this morning." Since Lin Wangshi wasn't home, Lin Luoxi directly shifted the blame to Lin Wangshi.

"Oh, I see." Xie Hanchuan fell silent once he heard that it was Lin Wangshi who bought it.

"How about I pay some living expenses? Otherwise, I'll feel really bad if you guys eat such lavish meals every day."

Xie Hanchuan watched as Lin Luoxi took out the kitchen knife that had once scared Old Man Lin and struggled to chop up a pig's trotter.

"No need. If you feel bad, you can bring some game with you every time you go hunting," Lin Luoxi said, seeing Xie Hanchuan's insistence.

"Of course, that's excellent." Xie Hanchuan listened to Lin Luoxi's words and didn't dwell on the topic.

"Second sister, you stay home and cook. I'll go out and check. It's so late, Father and Mother should be back by now."

As darkness fell, Lin Dayou and his wife, who had been out for quite some time, still hadn't returned, and Lin Wenqian was worried.

Although it is the busy farming season, all of their fields have been taken back by the Lin family, leaving them with only two or three acres of their own mountain land.

There are many wild beasts in the mountains. Lin Wenqian complained about Lin Dayou's inaction, but he was still worried that something might happen to the two of them.

"Big brother, you stay home and cook, I'll go out and find some food. My cooking isn't very good."

Lin Luoxi had no talent for starting a fire, so she handed the task over to Lin Wenqian and went out to find Lin Dayou and his wife.

"Alright, go ahead. I'll cook at home and wait for you to come back." Ever since he witnessed Lin Luoxi single-handedly kill the tiger, Lin Wenqian no longer doubted Lin Luoxi's abilities.

Lin Luoxi was the most suitable person to go and find Lin Dayou and his wife.

"Sister Luo Xi, I'll go with you." Xie Hanchuan looked at the darkening night sky outside, stood up, and prepared to go with Lin Luo Xi to find someone.

"Forget it, you should stay home and cook with my brother!" Lin Luoxi also refused Xie Hanchuan.

If he were to wander around with Xie Hanchuan late at night, all sorts of rumors would probably start circulating before dawn.

She had already lost all reputation by the time the Wang family came to break off the engagement.

But Xie Hanchuan is different. He was already rumored to be a jinx by the villagers. If rumors were to spread that he had something going on with her, then Xie Hanchuan could forget about getting married for the rest of his life.

Xie Hanchuan, who had been standing up, sat back down in disappointment after hearing Lin Ruoxi's words.

She thought sadly, "Could it be that Lin Luoxi is afraid the villagers will say he's a jinx and will bring her bad luck, which is why she's unwilling to get so close to him?"

"Second sister, let's go with you. We can't cook anyway, and we're just sitting here anyway, so we might as well accompany you."

Seeing that it was getting dark, Lin Luoning and Lin Wentao were worried that Lin Luoxi might be scared, so they suggested that they go out with her to look for someone.

"Okay, let's go!" Lin Luoxi originally wanted to refuse, but seeing the expectation in Lin Wentao and Lin Luoning's eyes, she couldn't bring herself to refuse and nodded in agreement.

"Yay, Second Sister, let's go!" Lin Luoning hadn't gone out with Lin Luoxi since Lin Luoxi woke up, so she was naturally the most excited and happy to be able to go out with her now.

Lin Wentao was equally excited, his eyes fixed on Lin Luoxi, never looking away.

After he woke up, Lin Wangshi and Lin Luoning explained to him what had happened during the days he was unconscious.

He now looks at Lin Luoxi with eyes full of admiration. Today, he made Lin Luoning insist on going along because his sixth sense told him that if he went, he would definitely be able to watch a show.

Lin Wentao and Lin Luoning, each holding Lin Luoxi's hand, happily went out.

Their excited demeanor suggested they were heading to a market, rather than searching for Lin Dayou and his wife.

Lin Luoxi was truly helpless about the two children's behavior and could only let them be.

The three of them had not gone far from their house when they ran into a familiar face from the village—Lin Li, the daughter-in-law of the clan elder, whom they called Grandma.

"Luo Xi, you're here! Come with me quickly, your parents are being harassed by those shameless old men." Lin Li Shi had only come to find Lin Luo Xi because she sensed something was wrong.

Lin Luoxi's behavior these past few days has made her feel that the only person the Lin family can truly keep in check is Lin Luoxi herself.

Seeing Lin Luoxi, Lin Luo, Lingling, and Wentao walking over, he immediately stepped forward and said.

"Grandma, what happened? What kind of trouble is the Lin family up to now?" Lin Luoxi was very polite and respectful to Lin Li Shi.

After all, the clan patriarch had always been helping their family, both openly and secretly, so she had a good impression of Lin Li Shi in front of her.

"Come on, let's walk and I'll tell you everything as we go." The situation was urgent, and Lin Li didn't want to delay, urging Lin Luoxi to hurry with her.

As Lin Luoxi followed Lin Lishi to the center of the village, she learned that Old Man Lin had heard from someone that his family had made several hundred taels of silver from selling tigers, and was now playing the victim to Lin Dayou.

Because Old Man Lin is his biological father, and he brought his whole family to stop him, he hasn't been able to get away yet.

"Hmph, I didn't hear them causing trouble at the door all day. So they were planning something big." Lin Luoxi sneered after hearing Lin Li's words.

"Of course! Ever since your father started insisting on separating from them, he hasn't had a single peaceful day." Lin Li-shi looked at Lin Luo-xi seriously after hearing her words.

Once they confirmed that Lin Luoxi had indeed become more sober and even more fierce, just as her father-in-law had said, they felt that the nemesis of the old man and his wife had appeared, and they couldn't help but feel smug.

He also began to tell Lin Luoxi, like spilling beans, about the despicable behavior of the old man Lin's family.

Although she married the son of the clan elder, Old Mrs. Lin kept picking on her because of what happened when she was young, and would occasionally come out to disgust her.

Now that Lin Luoxi, this unconventional and unpredictable person, has appeared, she is more excited than anyone else and is always looking forward to seeing Old Madam Lin suffer a setback.

Upon seeing that Old Man Lin had specially brought his entire family to stop Lin Dayou and his wife at their doorstep,

When she tried to blackmail Lin Dayou with filial piety and acted pitifully, she quickly came over to help by bringing in Lin Luoxi as a savior.

"It seems the damage done to the Lin family during this period has not been enough; they haven't learned their lesson." Lin Luoxi's eyes gradually turned cold upon hearing Lin Li's words.
