Chapter 8 Severing Ties, Beating Up the Terrible Grandma
Hearing no more movement outside, the elder continued to call out, "Aren't you two going to come in? Are you planning to have us go and invite you in?"
The elders in the clan also felt that the Lin family was really too pretentious. They liked to put on airs and imitate the ways of the city, but they didn't have much knowledge of literature and art. They made things that were neither fish nor fowl and were really an eyesore.
Today they even caused a stir with this arranged marriage, I wonder if it will affect the future marriage prospects of the girls in the village.
Thinking about this, the elders couldn't help but want to scare the Lin family.
The Lin family members were all standing outside. They didn't want to go in and be scolded, but after hearing what the elders said, they had no choice but to slink in.
Upon seeing so many clan elders present, their arrogant demeanor in front of Lin Dayou immediately subsided, and they greeted him respectfully.
"Let's skip the formalities. Today, we've been entrusted by Lin Dayou to sever ties between your Lin family and Lin Dayou." The eldest member of the clan, Grandpa Lin, stared intently at Old Man Lin with his hawk-like eyes and spoke solemnly.
"I disagree with severing ties with him." Old Mrs. Lin, who had been the one who had been the most vocal critic of Lin Dayou outside, was the first to jump out.
After Lin Dayou was separated from the family, there was no one to do the housework. Even at her age, she still had to work in the fields. She had long harbored resentment towards Lin Wangshi. It must have been that vixen who instigated that coward Lin Dayou to separate the family.
Now that Lin Dayou wants to sever ties with his family, won't that mean no one will give them the money they used to pay their respects?
Not only did Old Madam Lin disagree, but even the eldest branch of the Lin family disagreed.
The elderly couple always benefited from the monthly allowance Lin Dayou gave them, and they could eat meat every month. If they really broke off all ties with Lin Dayou, they wouldn't get to eat meat anymore, and they wouldn't stand for that.
"You've driven Lin Dayou's family to this state, and you still have the nerve to disagree? He loves his youngest son so much that he's now lying in bed like a living dead person. All of this is thanks to you."
Standing to the side, Lin Zhousheng was so angry at the shameless behavior of the Lin family that he wanted to rush up and beat them up.
“What does it have to do with us that his son is lying in bed? If he hadn’t respected his grandmother, this would have happened. I think this is retribution for being unfilial.” Lin Daguang not only showed no remorse, but also felt that this was retribution for Lin Wentao’s unfilial behavior towards his grandmother.
Lin Dayou, who was lying in bed in anger, struggled to get up, walked out, and glared angrily at Lin Daguang.
"Brother, you should have a conscience. Aren't you afraid that what you're doing will bring retribution on Lin Wenwu?" Lin Dayou now becomes like a hedgehog whenever he hears others talking about his child.
"You wretched bastard, how dare you curse my precious grandson! I'll beat you to death!" Upon hearing Lin Dayou's words, Old Lady Lin's face contorted with rage. Ignoring the numerous clan elders standing by, she rushed forward and began to beat Lin Dayou mercilessly.
Lin Dayou was already weak, and after being beaten by his mother, he fell to the ground. He couldn't muster any more anger and had no strength to fight back.
"I'll beat you to death, you beast! How dare you curse my precious grandson! I'll beat you to death..." He viciously struck Lin Dayou's sore spots.
The clan elders were furious when they saw that Old Lady Lin dared to lay a hand on them. They cursed Old Man Lin, "Old Man Lin, you useless man, why don't you take your wife away? If you keep hitting her, Lin Dayou will be tortured to death by you two."
If it weren't for the fact that Old Mrs. Lin was a woman, they would have already made their move.
At this point, Old Man Lin began to pretend to be deaf and dumb, as if he couldn't hear what the clan elders were saying.
They treat their precious grandson like the apple of their eye, how could they let Lin Dayou, that ingrate, curse him? He deserves to be beaten to death.
Lin Daguang would not step forward to stop them, but would stand aside and watch, remaining unmoved no matter what anyone said.
"I'll beat you to death! I'll beat you to death! How dare you hit my father!" A figure rushed out of the room and pounced on Old Lady Lin, his small fists hitting her hard.
While the modern Lin Luoxi was digesting the memories of the original owner Lin Luoxi in her room, she heard the conversation of those people outside.
In the end, upon hearing that the original owner's father was being beaten by his own mother, and with no one coming to help, and looking at her relatives in the room, some of whom were injured or disabled, Lin Luoxi lost all hope.
The more Lin Luoxi listened to the old woman's words, the angrier she became. She stopped pretending to be dead, sprang up in a somersault, and rushed outside without even putting on her shoes.
Lin Wangshi, who was lying on the bed, and Lin Wenqian, who was wiping Lin Wentao, only saw a shadow rush forward and neither of them could react.
It wasn't until they realized what was happening that Lin Luoxi, who was lying on the bed, was gone, and at that moment, Lin Luoxi's angry voice came from outside.
Lin Luoxi, being a medical student, naturally knew which acupoint was the most painful, so she punched that spot.
The old lady Lin, who had been riding on Lin Dayou and showing off, was now being hit in her sore spots by Lin Luoxi, and started to scream in pain.
"Help! Help me! This brat is going to kill me..." Damn it, when did this silly girl become so strong? It hurts so much!
When Lin Daguang saw that Lin Luoxi was still alive and even dared to hit his mother in front of so many people, he was so angry that he rolled up his sleeves and walked towards Lin Luoxi.
"Hey, what are you doing? Weren't you just looking like a dead man? Why do you look like you want to teach someone a lesson now? Get lost." Lin Zhousheng hated Lin Daguang's shameless attitude the most.
I just asked him to break up the fight, and he said it's only natural for a mother to discipline her son. Humph, to hell with that.
"Village chief, didn't you hear my mother screaming for help? That brat Lin Luoxi is going to beat my mother to death..." Lin Daguang accused Lin Zhousheng of taking sides.
"Ah, no, clan chief, did you hear that?" The village chief knew that the elders must be angry with Lin Daguang's family.
"What? What did you say?" Just as Lin Zhousheng had expected, the clan's patriarch was being ignored to his face for the first time, and he was already quite angry.
Now that they see the Lin family girl beating up the lawless old lady Lin, they are overjoyed and would never stop her.
Lin Daguang, who was stopped, did not dare to fight against Lin Zhousheng and the clan elders, and could only watch helplessly as his own mother was ridden and beaten by Lin Luoxi.
The sound of Old Mrs. Lin's heart-wrenching screams reached his ears. Lin Dayou lay there silently, staring blankly at the roof of his house.
"Damn it, Lin Luoxi, you good-for-nothing! You dare hit me? I'll sell you off the moment I turn my back..." The old lady Lin, who was being beaten, was still oblivious to the situation and was spewing profanities. She even wanted to turn around and beat Lin Luoxi to death.
"Slap! Slap! Slap!..." How could Lin Luoxi, who came from the 21st century, be kidnapped by filial piety? Listening to the old lady's foul language, she used all her strength and relentlessly slapped the old woman's face.
