So, when Li Cuihua suggested that they kick Jiang Zhennan out, they were not willing.

Of course, there were always supporters and detractors.

“No matter how wrong Daniu is, he shouldn’t be taught a lesson by an outsider.”

“This guy and his gang are clearly not good people. It’s dangerous for people like them to stay in the village. If it were up to me, I would say that they shouldn’t stay in the Lin family Village.”

“Shush, do you want to die? If the jinx hears you, she might take revenge on you.”

“What are you people talking about? If they are not good people, then are you? Last time, I saw the youngest man among them help carry the water for Grandma Lin. Have any of you helped Grandma Lin before?”

Grandma Lin was an old woman in the village. Her son and daughter-in-law had died in an accident, leaving only a three-year-old grandson. They were both incapable of doing the heavy work.

“Tsk, what’s so great about that?”

“It’s not great. But it says a lot about their character.”

The more Lin Yuelan listened, the more speechless she got. ‘How did we get so far off topic? Aren’t we here to deal with Lin Mingqing’s incident three years ago? Why are they talking about Jiang Zhennan instead?”

“Enough!” Lin Yiwei shouted angrily.

The entire place fell silent.

Lin Yiwei said sternly, “We’ll discuss the issue of whether Young Master Nan and his men should stay in the village or not later. Now, I must first seek justice for my son!”

As he spoke, Lin Yiwei’s sharp eyes looked at Lin Laosan. He suppressed his anger and said, “Lin Laosan, three years ago, the carriage had an accident and caused my son to be paralyzed in bed for three years. Your good son, Lin Daniu, has personally admitted to this. What else do you have to say?”

However, Lin Laosan would not give in so easily. He pretended to be calm and argued loudly, “You are clearly trying to force us to take this blame. Dream on!”

“You really are a bunch of rotten apples!” Lin Yiwei was furious and very disappointed with Lin Laosan! “Changxing’s wife, tell me what you heard and saw at that time. Tell me everything in detail! I’m sure the people will know whether you’re telling the truth or not!”

Zhou Xiaoliu stood up, nodded, and said, “three years ago, I had only been married to Changxing for three to four months. I was unable to get pregnant, and the villagers were talking behind my back. I was very angry. On the afternoon of the 18th of June, I heard another gossip, and I quarreled with Changxing. In a fit of anger, I went to the back of the village and hid in the haystack beside the big stone bridge to cry.

“I didn’t know how long I cried, but I was tired and unknowingly fell asleep behind the haystack. When I woke up, the moon was already high in the sky. I believed it was around 11 pm. When I saw how late it was, I immediately wanted to hurry home.

“At that moment, I heard two men’s voices coming from the front of the haystack. I was so scared that I immediately crawled back and covered my mouth, not daring to make any sound. It was at this moment that I heard their voices. ‘Er Niu, it’s already so late. Why did you sneakily drag me out? What is it that we have to do in the back of the village? I still want to sleep.’ Lin Daniu said impatiently.

“Lin Erniu said, ‘Brother, Lin Mingqing and Lin Yiwei are busybodies and saved that jinx. Are we going to let them go just like that? As long as that jinx is still alive, our family will always be cursed. Dazong will never pass the exam and be a scholar. Do you want that?’

“Lin Daniu shouted angrily, “Damn you! Dazing will definitely be able to pass the Imperial examinations and become a high-ranking official. No one will be able to stop me from becoming the father of a high-ranking official!’

“Lin Erniu said, ‘But hasn’t Dazong failed once already? Now everyone is saying that he was cursed by the jinx. We had the chance to kill the jinx, but she was saved by that pair of nosy father and son.’
