Surprisingly, not a single one of these tribesmen obeyed!
Refuse to go to the ancestral hall!
They didn't even give face to the clan elders and clan head, saying that since it was the Lunar New Year, they would talk about anything after the Lantern Festival.
Some people even compared them to Zhou Daqing, saying that the leader of the Zhou family could lead his clan to a better life, while the elders and patriarchs of their Lin clan were useless and only knew how to lead the bullying of others.
Lin Sanjin, Lin Qi, and Lin Gouya were so angry they almost fell over.
That hurts, that hurts so much!
This is the first time that the clansmen have ignored the words of the clan elders and the clan leader! It is also the first time that the clansmen have questioned the clan elders and the clan leader!
There were quite a few clansmen who came to Lin Qiu's house to smash and loot, about twenty of them. With so many people, it was impossible for Lin Gouya to drive them all out of the clan.
The Lin clan is currently in turmoil, and everyone is quite irritable. They have already entertained this idea, and if they take a hard line, the two elders and Lin Gouya are worried that it will backfire.
These people were confident that the clan would not punish everyone, which is why they dared to act recklessly.
Lin Gouya sighed and said, "If we hold a grand opening ceremony at the ancestral hall during the New Year, I'm afraid it will become a laughing stock. I think we should deal with this on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month and let everyone calm down first."
Since the clan chief had said so, Lin Qiushi had no choice. She felt that there was no man in her family, no one to make decisions, and that such a thing had happened during the New Year. Lin Qiushi couldn't understand it and banged her head against a pillar, drawing blood immediately.
Everyone was terrified, and the children burst into tears.
"It's all because of that bitch Yang Cui that we have no peace during the New Year! Why doesn't that bitch just die? God is blind! Waaah..." Lin Niu cursed and slapped her thigh as she cried.
"Quickly, go and fetch Doctor Qi!"
"Let me die! Let me die, I don't want to live anymore, sob sob sob..." Lin Qiu struggled desperately, determined to die.
Lin Gouya's wife and several other women held her tightly, afraid that she would hit the wall again.
"Mother, mother..."
Lin Qiu's children were also crying loudly, calling out "Mother" over and over again. Lin Sanjin, Lin Qi, and Lin Gouya felt very uncomfortable seeing this.
All of this stemmed from Yang Cui, but they were powerless to stop it.
If they dare to do anything to Yang Cui, the Zhou, An, and Yan families will not let them off!
They all knew in their hearts that they would be proven wrong more and more often in the future, and in the long run, the Lin family would only become more and more divided.
That would be really exciting if the Zhou family actually produced a few scholars, provincial graduates, or even top scholars and imperial examination graduates in the future!
"Dogtooth, write to Shikang right away and tell him everything that's going on at home," Lin Sanjin said.
In fact, Lin Sanjin, Lin Qi, Lin Gouya, and their families also harbored resentment towards Lin Shikang and his mother. However, given the circumstances, they could not act as impulsively as other members of their clan.
...
Lin Shikang was unaware of the Lin family's affairs; his family was sitting around the table having a reunion dinner.
The table is laden with fish and meat, ten large bowls of dishes, symbolizing perfection.
Looking at the table full of dishes, Madam Fan had no appetite at all because she was sick.
After living in Ganning for a week, she couldn't get used to the water, and her health fluctuated. Today is the Lunar New Year, and she is forcing herself to stay healthy so that she can have this reunion dinner.
At this point, Fan actually had the idea of returning to Lin'an Village. On the one hand, it was due to health reasons, and on the other hand, there wasn't even anyone there to chat with.
She wants others to know that she's awesome for having a great son, she wants others to praise her and envy her, but the problem is she has nowhere to show off here!
Things would be different if we went back to Lin'an Village.
Everyone in the village must envy her and be jealous of her. She wants to see the envious looks in other people's eyes and enjoy that feeling.
"Shikang, I want to take Daya back to our hometown after spring."
Upon hearing this, Lin Daya was startled! She didn't want to go back to the countryside; she wanted to stay here and live the life of a pampered young lady!
Lin Shikang wasn't surprised. He said, "Mother, after you go back, our family won't see each other for a whole year. And we definitely can't let Daya go back to the countryside. She's not young anymore. I'm planning to find a female teacher to teach her music, chess, calligraphy, painting, and etiquette, and then find her a marriage partner."
Lin Daya was finally relieved after hearing what Lin Shikang said.
Lin Shikang didn't want to send Fan Shi back. His mother was too good at causing trouble, and he didn't feel at ease keeping her under his watchful eye.
At the very least, we must wait until Yang Cui is dealt with before allowing her to return to Lin'an Village...
“Mother, even if you want to go back to your hometown, you should at least wait until my marriage with Daya is settled before going back, don’t you think?”
Upon hearing this, Madam Fan's face lit up with joy: "Son, cough cough cough... Do you have someone you like? Now that you are the county magistrate, you can't marry those shady women. At the very least, you should choose a good-looking young woman."
"Dad, I think Aunt Jing is pretty good. She's kind, generous, and beautiful."
Lin Daya is now close to Yuan Yajing. Yuan Yajing has bought Lin Daya a lot of jewelry and beautiful clothes. Lin Daya thinks Yuan Yajing is very good, much better than Yang Cui.
Her thinking was simple: Yuan Yajing was rich and liked her very much. In the future, when Yuan Yajing became her stepmother, she would definitely have a lot of money to spend!
She also knew that Yuan Yajing and her father had feelings for each other, which made her even happier.
Madam Fan reprimanded coldly, "What right do you have to interrupt when the adults are speaking? Do you even have the right to speak?"
After scolding him, he said to Lin Shikang, "Yuan Yajing's family background is alright, but she has been married before and is not good enough for you. Son, with your qualifications, you can definitely find a virgin."
