Chapter 173 Winning Everyone’s Help
Chen Zhao looked at Lin and said, "As you all said, I will give you and your two children a chance to live out your lives in peace. This means I will let you go, not give you money."
"What!" Lin screamed, and she looked angrily at the people who were pointing fingers at her.
They must have changed General Chu's mind.
When General Chu told her to give them a chance to live out the rest of their lives in peace, his eyes glanced at Doctor Li's box countless times.
The meaning was obvious: if she confessed everything, the general would give her money.
"As you have heard, you three, mother and son, are all accomplices of Lin Jiaojiao. I am being lenient by not pursuing any charges against you. Come, drive the mother and son out of the mansion." Shen Zhao gave an order, and soldiers immediately stepped forward.
Lin retreated repeatedly, looking at the soldiers surrounding them.
"General, you can't treat this peasant woman like this. She has risked everything. If you drive her out like this, how will she, her child, and I survive?
My eldest son is getting married soon, and my youngest son is about to start school. They need money everywhere. General... General..."
Although Lin was strong among women, she was powerless against the soldiers fighting on the battlefield.
He was easily restrained.
Chen Zhao looked at the still struggling Lin and said coldly, "In this vast world, I have never heard of a person with healthy limbs and the ability to work starving to death.
You and Lin Tiezhu are strong and healthy, and Nanchu is peaceful and prosperous. As long as you work hard, you will definitely earn money to feed yourself, marry a wife, and go to school."
As soon as Shen Zhao said this, someone immediately echoed him, "General, you're right. Our country of Nanchu is open-minded and doesn't restrict women from working. You're such a strong woman. As long as you're willing to work hard, you won't have to worry about not earning money."
"That's right, that's right. Your Majesty values literature, and private schools have been established both inside and outside the city. The tuition is affordable for most families. As long as you and your son are willing to work hard, it will be easy to support your young son's education."
"Your son is in his prime. He can earn at least twenty or thirty copper coins a day as a boatman or porter carrying bags at the docks. If he wants to marry a woman, he can do so within two years if he works hard."
Everyone put forward their suggestions, and Lin's mother and son gnashed their teeth in hatred.
Since they came to the Lin family, they have not exerted any effort.
In their ancestral land, Lin Feihu provided them with food and clothing, and in Kyoto, thanks to Lin Jiaojiao, they lived a life of ease.
Now if they are asked to live under others and work hard, how can they be willing to do that?
"General, it's easy for them to say. Don't underestimate the peasant woman because she's fat and has no strength. She can't even walk three steps without gasping for breath. She can't do anything.
My son has been spoiled since he was young and has never done anything physically strong. Carrying a heavy bag is something only humans can do. How could my son possibly do it? "
"General, I have done you a great favor. If you don't show some appreciation, I...I will not leave and will stay in this General's Mansion."
That bitch Lin Jiaojiao was able to stay in the General's Mansion for two years, so why can't she?
She was so desperate that she didn't believe that the man named Chu would dare to kill her in public.
Chen Zhao had already expected that Lin's mother and son would not give up so easily. She was used to a comfortable life, so how could she be willing to go back to her previous poverty?
She didn't need to take action to deal with these people, they would all seek their own deaths.
"Since you don't know what's good for you, I can only follow the laws of the Southern Chu State and send these people to the government office for punishment."
Lin was stunned. Why didn't this Chu guy play by the rules and just give her some money?
For a general like him, it was just a drop in the bucket.
Is it necessary to make such a big fuss and send them to the yamen?
"General... General, this is just a matter that can be dealt with with some silver. Is it really necessary for you to send us to the government office? If you really send us there, how can you stop the gossip? I have helped you."
Before Chen Zhao could speak, someone in the crowd spoke up, "Don't worry. The public has sharp eyes. You're helping the general? Pah! You're just blinded by money. You're an accomplice, and you don't know what's good for you. The general is letting you go, so just leave. You're trying to cheat the general out of money. The best thing for the general is to hand you scum over to the authorities."
Lin started yelling and cursing at everyone.
Chen Zhao ordered, "Shut their mouths."
The soldiers immediately covered the mouths of Lin and others.
Father Lin, standing by, gloated as he watched Lin and the others being carried away. He said with relief, "Bitch, karma comes back, and it's justice. You sucked my blood, and then you wanted to kick me away and take all the money. Now you're being arrested and imprisoned. You deserve it!"
Chen Zhao looked at the overly happy Lin's father and said, "How could I have forgotten you? I will arrest you and bring you to the government office."
Father Lin was stunned and slapped himself hard. Why did he say that?
Wouldn’t it be better to sneak into the crowd and hide?
Immediately, soldiers came forward and arrested Lin's father.
Father Lin glanced at Lin Tiezhu's unmarried wife, who was standing there bewildered, and said, "General, there's one person you haven't had arrested yet. It's that little bitch. She's Lin Tiezhu's unmarried wife."
If this little whore's family hadn't pressed Lin Tiezhu to buy a big house, would this bitch Lin have instigated him to come to the General's Mansion to cause trouble?
If they hadn't come to make trouble, how could what happened today have happened?
Now that he is in jail, there is no way the culprit can get away with it.
Lin Tiezhu's unmarried daughter-in-law quickly hid in the crowd and immediately distanced herself from the matter, saying:
"Lin Tiezhu and I aren't even compatible. It's just something our family said verbally. It doesn't count. I'm not his unmarried daughter-in-law."
Everyone sighed, and Lin Tiezhu was panicked. How could the daughter-in-law who had stepped into their family not recognize him?
"Yue Niang, we've even set a date for the wedding, how can you say it doesn't count?"
Yue Niang said angrily, "Have you given me a betrothal gift? Have you sent me a betrothal gift? You're talking big and saying you want me to live in a big house and become a rich wife with servants to serve me. Bah! You're a family of vampires. Our marriage is invalid."
"Take them away and send them to the government." Chen Zhao gave an order and the Lin family was taken away. Yue Niang quickly hid in the crowd and dared not make a sound.
Everyone could still hear the voices of Lin's father, Mrs. Lin, and Lin Tiezhu scolding Yue Niang, saying that she was an unlucky person and a harmful spirit. If it weren't for her, they wouldn't have ended up like this.
Whoever marries her will be unlucky for the rest of his life.
Chen Zhao sighed silently. Two families cannot sleep under the same bed. In the minds of this family, their current fate was caused by others and had nothing to do with themselves.
Shen Zhao did not touch Lin Feihu, she left this person to Chu Mu to deal with.
She said to the crowd:
After you provide the great god cat to eat raw pickled body swap, the general tore his white moonlight
