Seeing that Lin Jiuyue spoke so directly, Lin Dongming simply put down his chopsticks.

"Jiuyue, uncle asked you to come here today because he really needs your help with something."

Seeing that things had developed to this point, Lin Jinlian no longer tried to stop Lin Dongming. Instead, she pretended to eat to hide her embarrassment.

"Oh? What do you want to ask me for? Tell me."

Lin Jiuyue crossed her arms and looked at Lin Dongming as if it had nothing to do with her.

"Haha, this is a small matter for you."

Lin Jiuyue didn't say anything, but her expression indicated that Lin Dongming should continue.

"Jiuyue girl, no matter what misunderstandings there were between our two families, your uncle and your father are brothers. You can't deny this blood relationship, right?"

Lin Jiuyue shook her head.

"Whether I recognize this relationship or not depends entirely on my mood. If I am willing to recognize it, then we are relatives. If I am not willing to recognize it, then there is no relationship between our two families at all!"

Lin Dongming smiled awkwardly when he heard this.

What my daughter said really came true. That little girl Lin Jiuyue has become successful now and doesn't even want to recognize her own uncle.

"Jiuyue girl, back then, your uncle and your father and his brother depended on each other for survival. We finally managed to settle down in Lijia Village. Unexpectedly, after only a dozen years of peaceful life, we started fleeing famine again. You and your sister are the only relatives your uncle has."

Lin Jiuyue gave a sarcastic smile.

Are my siblings the only relatives I have? Why didn't you think of this when you bullied me and my siblings and seized my family property? Now you're playing the emotional card with me?

"Just say whatever you want to say. There's no need to beat around the bush. You all understand my personality to some extent. There's no point playing the emotional card with me."

Lin Dongming coughed twice awkwardly.

This damn girl speaks so bluntly that I feel embarrassed to continue.

"Jiuyue girl, you've seen how hard it is for my uncle and his family right now. I also heard that you're doing well now, staying at an inn every day. I thought, since you're so rich and we're all relatives, why don't you help me? When my uncle's life gets better in the future, he'll definitely not forget your kindness."

When Lin Jiuyue heard this, she burst out laughing.

"why are you laughing?"

Lin Jinshan looked at Lin Jiuyue with dissatisfaction.

This damn girl, not only does she not care about family affection at all, but she also speaks with such harshness!

"I laugh at you guys for taking yourselves so seriously."

Lin Jinshan stared at Lin Jiuyue.

"Lin Jiuyue, don't go too far. My father is your elder after all. How can you talk like that? Do you still have any respect for your elders?"

Lin Jiuyue stood up calmly.

"Elders? I, Lin Jiuyue, have never seized my own brother's property and land, nor have I abused the elders of my nephews and nieces! You want me to help you? Maybe in the next life!"

As soon as Lin Jiuyue said this, Lin Jinshan was so angry that he stood up and was about to "teach" Lin Jiuyue a lesson.

"Lin Jiuyue! You have no respect for your elders. Today, I will teach you a lesson on behalf of your deceased parents! I will teach you what it means to respect your elders!"

A smile appeared on Lin Jiuyue's lips.

This Lin Jinshan is really impatient! Look at Lin Jinlian, she is still as steady as a rock.

If the Lin family were to be handed over to Lin Jinshan in the future, it would probably become a ruined family.

"Brother, we are all family, what are you doing? Let's talk it over! Sit down!"

Lin Jinlian was afraid that Lin Jinshan would do something bad, so she quickly grabbed Lin Jinshan.

"Yes, yes, let's talk it over nicely. Jinshan, please sit down."

Lin Jinshan stiffened his neck and said unconvincedly.

"Dad, Mom, sister, look at how disrespectful Lin Jiuyue is to her elders. I must teach her a lesson today."

Lin Jiuyue looked at Lin Jinshan calmly, praying in her heart that Lin Jinshan would act quickly.

As long as Lin Jinshan takes action, he will have a reason to take action.

"Jinshan! What are you doing? Jiuyue is your sister. We are all family, how can we just take action at every turn?"

Lin Dongming scolded, and Lin Jinshan sat down again angrily.

Lin Jiuyue looked at Lin Jinshan with some regret.

Oh, why didn't this guy just hit me? How could he listen to advice? It made it so hard for me to find a reason to hit him!

"Anything else? If not, I'm leaving."

Lin Jiuyue looked at Lin Dongming's family.

I knew that this family was looking for me for no good reason, and I was right.

Lin Dongming stood up and looked at Lin Jiuyue.

"Jiuyue girl, can't you really help your uncle?"

Lin Jiuyue smiled.

"Help you? How?"

"Jiuyue, lend me some money. When I have money in the future, I will definitely pay you back with interest. I will remember your kindness in the future."

"Oh? My father helped you a lot in the past, didn't he? What are you so anxious about doing to him? Seizing his land and property after his death? Or bullying his children? If that's the kind of thing you want, then what's the point of me, Lin Jiuyue, doing this?"

When Lin Dongming and his family heard this, they not only did not feel guilty, but instead felt that Lin Jiuyue was too ruthless.

"Lin Jiuyue, you're staying at the inn every day now. You have so much money, we should borrow some from you, but you're still so hesitant. If this gets out, your reputation will be bad, right?"

Lin Jiuyue looked up at Liu Xiaohua.

This woman, seeing that playing the emotional card is useless, now starts to threaten me?

Is it because the original owner had a face that was prone to bullying?

"Are you threatening me?"

Liu Xiaohua thought Lin Jiuyue was scared, so she raised her chin and said with some pride.

"Jiuyue girl, you are wrong. We are a family. How could your aunt threaten you? Your aunt is just reminding you."

Lin Jiuyue: ...

"Then I have to thank you for your reminder. However, I, Lin Jiuyue, am least afraid of threats from others. Reputation and the like are not worth mentioning to me at all."

After Lin Jiuyue finished speaking, she turned around and walked out.

The news of a horse-drawn carriage arriving in the village had spread, and outside the Lin family's rented house, some fellow villagers had gathered to watch the excitement.

When the villagers saw Lin Jiuyue coming out, they all looked around curiously.

"Oh, that's the relative of the Lin family who has a carriage, right? He looks pretty nice."

"Tsk, you already have a carriage at such a young age, and you don't even know where that carriage came from?"

"That's right. I heard that the Lin family fled from famine. How could they afford to buy a carriage when they were reduced to such a state? If she said she earned this carriage herself, I wouldn't believe it even if you beat me to death."

"I don't believe it either. How could a girl like her afford to buy a carriage? If the Lin family really had such a wealthy relative, they wouldn't be so poor that they couldn't even pay the rent."
