Hearing this, Old Lady Lin became even more dissatisfied and tried to use the same trick again, but Lin Jiujiu grabbed her arm and lifted her up.
He casually tossed the toy into Lin Dashuan's arms and said, "If you want to make a scene, go back to your Lin family. If you dare to throw a tantrum on my turf, I'll break your legs."
Old Mrs. Lin saw the fierce look in her eyes and knew she wasn't joking.
Instead of rolling on the ground, she grabbed Lin's father and started scratching and pinching him.
He kept cursing, "Fifth brother, are you dead? You just let this brat treat your mother like this?"
If you don't handle this matter properly today, I'll go to the authorities and report you, and I'll send you to jail.
Hearing her words, Lin's father was truly heartbroken.
He wasn't this upset when his mother accused him of stealing money for his daughter, but now he really doesn't want to talk to her anymore.
"Mother, you said I stole money for Jiu Jiu, but you just said that we can't even afford to eat at home, and none of my nephews can find wives. Where would we get the money?"
Do you know how much it cost Jiu Jiu to buy all this land and build such a big house?
He wasn't stupid; he knew what his mother was up to. He didn't expose her at first simply to save face for her.
Even when Grandma Lin's lies were exposed, she remained calm.
Instead, it only made his shameless nature more obvious.
He even said with a straight face, "So what? She's your daughter, and you're my son. What's hers is yours, and what's yours is mine."
"I just want my money back, what's wrong with that?"
As Grandma Lin spoke, she became more and more fluent in her words. Although she had been a little hesitant at first, she didn't feel awkward at all by the end.
The rest of the Lin family, except for the Lin father's branch, almost unanimously echoed this sentiment.
Lin Dashuan even adopted the air of a boss and lectured his father.
"Fifth brother, Mother is right. You are a member of our Lin family. Don't be unable to distinguish between inside and outside. What use is it for a little girl to have so much money in her hands?"
It would be better to use that money to support our parents; at least we'd gain a good reputation.
Mr. Lin was so angry at his elder brother's shameless words that he almost laughed.
The younger Lin Luo was even more impatient.
He muttered to himself, "If my older sister is to be filial, it's to my parents. What does it have to do with you guys?"
Although Lin Luo's voice was soft, it still did not escape the ears of the Lin family.
Lin Dashuan's eldest son, Lin Qiao, clenched his fists and rushed forward, wanting to teach his cousin a lesson.
"You bastard, who do you think you are, daring to speak to my father like that?"
Lin Luo looked at the raised fist and was about to go up and fight it head-on, but Lin Jiujiu pulled him behind her to protect him.
Lin Jiujiu gave Lin Qiao a cold look, then swung him around and threw him to the ground with a grappling move, before stepping on his shoulder.
Lin Qiaotou was buried in the ground, repeatedly crying out in pain, but he couldn't move his body at all.
Lin Jiujiu glanced at the other members of the Lin family and spoke up in warning.
"Let me say it again, this is my territory, and it's not your place to act recklessly. If you have mouths but can't speak properly, I don't mind teaching you a lesson."
"If anyone dares to lay a hand on me again, don't blame me for showing no mercy."
With a sudden burst of force, he severed Lin Qiao's arm with a 'crack'.
Since this thing was offered up as a warning to others, she had no reason to be polite.
"ah……"
As Lin Qiao let out a scream, the Lin family members instinctively took a small step back.
However, the next moment, Lin Jiujiu let go of Lin Qiao and walked step by step towards Old Lady Lin.
As she approached, Old Mrs. Lin involuntarily retreated until she reached the outside of Lin Jiujiu's house, at which point Lin Jiujiu stopped.
Lin Jiujiu knew that if she didn't clarify things today, there would definitely be more trouble in the future.
It would be better to resolve this once and for all.
"Speak up, you old hag, what exactly do you want?"
Lin Jiujiu knew she was there for the money, but if she didn't give her a chance to speak, how could she deal with her?
Grandma Lin looked at her, subconsciously swallowed, and glanced back at her children and grandchildren.
Looking at their cowardly behavior, Old Lady Lin was furious.
But he also knew that it was impossible to forcibly seize Lin Jiujiu's family property, so he could only grit his teeth and say.
"Give me a thousand taels of silver, and I'll let this matter drop."
"One thousand taels?"
Lin Jiujiu looked her up and down.
I just couldn't tell she was worth so much money.
"You've probably lost your mind."
Lin Jiujiu didn't even glance at her. She was only speaking to her politely because of her father. Since she was being ungrateful, there was no need to give her any face.
Lin's father also felt that his mother had gone a bit too far.
“Mother, Jiu Jiu doesn’t have that much money. She used all her money to buy land and build a house. Please don’t make a scene here and make a fool of yourself. Let’s go back first. If you want money, I can go to town to work and earn it. I’ll give you all the money I earn.”
It would have been better if Mr. Lin hadn't said those words; they only made Mrs. Lin angrier.
"You earn so little, when will you ever have a thousand taels?"
She glared at Lin's father with dissatisfaction, then pointed at Lin Jiujiu.
"How come she doesn't have a thousand taels left? Didn't she buy land? If she doesn't have money, she should give the land to us. What does a little girl like her need so much land for?"
And this house, how many rooms can she live in by herself? I think that thatched hut can be repaired and is still habitable.
Anyway, she'll get married sooner or later. I'll find her a good family, and transfer this house to your eldest brother's name. It'll be perfect for your nephews' weddings."
Her gesticulating and shameless behavior made Lin Jiujiu both angry and amused.
Lin's father also felt that his mother had gone too far.
"Mother, this belongs to Jiu Jiu, not to me. So don't even think about it. If you think I don't earn enough money, then let my eldest brother, second brother, third brother, and fourth brother earn it too."
You have several grandchildren; they can go out and find work too.
When Grandma Lin heard that her most beloved children and grandchildren were to go out to work, she was so angry that her face turned ashen.
He raised his hand and punched Lin's father in the chest, cursing as he did so.
"You bastard, are you even speaking human language? You actually want your brothers and nephews to work and support you? Are you even human?"
How could I have given birth to such a lazy, good-for-nothing who just leeches off his parents and brothers?
"God, please open your eyes and strike him dead with lightning!"
Upon hearing her words, a hint of sadness flashed across Lin's father's face, but he did not argue.
He knew from a young age that his mother disliked him, and this wasn't the first time she had said such misleading and distorted things.
He was used to it. Although he could disregard how his parents treated him, he would never give their daughter's things to them.
No matter how much she acted up, the fifth son refused to fulfill her requests as usual.
She immediately fell silent; this tactic wouldn't work, so she decided to try a different approach.
His eyes rolled back, and he clutched his chest as he slowly fell backward.
