Elder Mr. Zhou took a deep breath after listening to Lin Caisang’s words and then glared at Mother Zhou.
"Aren’t you going to leave? Do you not feel ashamed enough?"
With that, he left the Lin Family courtyard in a huff, taking the servants with him.
Mother Zhou shot Lin Caisang a hateful glance and followed Elder Mr. Zhou out.
"How could Elder Mr. Zhou have become ?" Uncle Jin muttered to himself after everyone had cleared out.
Back in Ya Village, Old Madam Zhou was a person who greatly valued her reputation, but who would have thought, at her age, she would go so far as to throw away her own dignity for her grandson.
Zhou Liang was indeed unfilial.
"Perhaps he has always been , just hiding it well before," Clan Chief Lin remarked.
"Sangsang, if the Zhou family comes to cause trouble again, don’t be polite with them. Just drive them out directly. We people from Ya Village won’t let others bully us," he instructed Lin Caisang.
"I understand," Lin Caisang replied.
She had truly never encountered a family like the Zhou family before.
Although there was Liu Baixiao, no matter what, his family only acted arrogantly in front of their own. Liu Baixiao dared to be so because he was fully aware that Lin Laogeng was his father, and that was why he thought he had the right to arrogance.
But the Zhou family was different, unrelated by blood or marriage, and had already had an unpleasant dispute over the broken engagement.
This time, for Elder Mr. Zhou to come knocking just to be slapped in the face was completely unexpected to her; she thought only Madam Zhou would come.
Indeed, for the sake of that scum Zhou Liang, this entire family was capable of anything.
"Clan Chief Grandpa, where did we leave off? Let’s continue inside," she suggested.
"Yes, yes, let’s go inside," Clan Chief Lin agreed, nodding repeatedly.
Time flew by quickly, and soon it was the day Lin Caisang had to visit the National Teacher’s residence in Shaohua City to see the ghost wailing again. This time, Lin Caisang did not bring Sui Ziyou with her, but went alone.
It wasn’t that she didn’t want to bring him, but she couldn’t, as he was blocked by the Order of the Golden Pearl.
"Everything is ready; let’s begin," she said indifferently to Steward Xin.
The next moment, a few guards dragged Suri out.
"No, I don’t want to go! Can’t you see that wretched woman is doing it on purpose? She is an assassin, sent by someone to kill me!" After having been steamed before, Suri reacted extremely violently at the sight of the large wooden vat.
While cursing, he tried to run away.
It took several guards working together to drag him back, not even giving him a chance to catch his breath. They lifted him and placed him straight into the pre-cooled wooden vat, then covered it, leaving only his head exposed.
Almost immediately, a piercing scream tore through the air and began to ring out.
Lin Caisang slightly furrowed her brow.
She had already taken precautions by stuffing cotton in her ears, yet it still could not block out the screams that were enough to shatter one’s heartstrings. Could her medicine really be that effective?
"Steward Xin, please watch over here. I’m going to take a walk outside," she said as she stood up.
Anyway, once Suri was in the vat, it was impossible for him to struggle. The pain he felt on his body would prevent him from escaping; the rest left him only the chance to feel relief through his cries.
