"Our ancestors are above us, and it is our descendants who are incompetent that have humiliated us today."
After bowing to his ancestors, Su Yuanqing kowtowed to Lin Wuchen.
"Third Young Master Lin, I beg you, if you have anything to say, come to me. Please don't disturb the peace of the Su family ancestors, please."
Su Yuanqing's series of reactions caught everyone off guard. Even Su Chengyan didn't expect Su Yuanqing to be so exaggerated and intense.
At this moment, the people's voices were getting louder and louder. They all said that Su Yuanqing was a rare filial son and grandson, and asked the Lin family not to go too far.
Lin Wuchen gritted his teeth. He didn't expect that the Su family would even sacrifice their own ancestors in order to avoid spending money.
It was obvious what happened today was premeditated.
Su Qingyu also had a gloomy face, knowing in her heart that this was going to be troublesome.
Su Yuanqing's move was to ruin the reputation of Lin Wuchen and the Lin family, and to give himself a reputation for being filial.
He has succeeded. At this moment, the onlookers are either scolding Lin Wuchen or praising Su Yuanqing.
The only way to clear the third cousin of suspicion is to see that Su Yuanqing dug the grave himself.
But how is that possible? There are no witnesses in the deep mountains and forests.
Su Qingyu's mind raced, and she turned around and whispered to Feicui, "Go back to the mansion and find a way to interrogate Su Yuanqing's servant to see if there are any loopholes."
Jade nodded and left calmly.
Su Qingyu looked around and saw that the people were looking at Lin Wuchen with contempt, and some people were even throwing rotten vegetable leaves at the gate of Lin's Trading Company.
The Great Zhou Dynasty always respected the dead, no matter how big the conflict or hatred, as long as someone disturbed someone's ancestral tablet, they would be despised.
In the countryside, even if two families have just had a fight, if someone dies, you have to go and help, as it is a sign of respect for the deceased.
Su Qingyu knew that this couldn't happen. After thinking about it, she spoke loudly.
"Everyone, I am the eldest daughter of the Su family, the third wife of the Shen family, and a cousin of the Lin family."
"I'll be honest and say this: this matter still needs to be investigated in detail. If the Lin family digs up my Su family's ancestral graves, I will cut off all ties with the Lin family without hesitation."
"But if it wasn't done by the Lin family, then we have not only wronged someone, but also let the bad guys go unpunished."
Su Qingyu's words calmed down the people who were just filled with anger.
She was delighted and planned to make Lin Wuchen swear a solemn oath, then report the case to the Ministry of Justice and ask the authorities to conduct a thorough investigation. This way, the Lin family would be able to clear themselves of suspicion, if not completely.
Just as he was about to speak again, a sharp and high-pitched announcement suddenly came from outside the crowd.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived."
