594: Unfilial Reputation Spread

Unfilial Reputation Spread

In the past, it had always been the case of the parents accusing the children and not the other way around. This was good. She found an excuse not to be filial to her parents and relatives, and she even directly accused her biological father of being a thief.2

When Lin Sanniu heard Lin yuelan's complaint, he was furious, shocked, and terrified. He loudly denied, " you're slandering me!"

When Lin Laosan heard Lin yuelan's complaint, he was so angry and anxious that he fainted. As for li Cuihua and Zhou Guixiang, they were only concerned about whether they could get money from Lin yuelan. In the end, they were disappointed. As a result, they were extremely disappointed and resentful of Lin Sanniu, blaming him for being useless.

Therefore, they didn't care whether Lin Sanniu was dead or alive. Not only did they not care, but when they heard that Lin yuelan was going to Sue Lin Sanniu, they felt a sense of pleasure in their hearts. They believed that Lin Sanniu deserved it.

Therefore, li Cuihua said from the back of the crowd, " there was indeed such a thing! The vegetable seedlings that were stolen are still in his cowshed."

This time, everyone around looked at li Cuihua with a strange look.

What was the relationship between this person and the man kneeling in court? Why did she frame him at this moment?

County Magistrate Zhou didn't care about the others 'gazes. He immediately said, " men, bring this person up and make her repeat what she just said as evidence in court!"

Li Cuihua was immediately brought to court by two constables.

Li Cuihua's face was pale with fear. She cried out at County Magistrate Zhou, " my Lord, I've been wronged! I've done nothing!"

County Magistrate Zhou slammed the wooden door and asked sternly, " Who are you? What kind of relationship did he have with Lin Sanniu? Hurry up and tell me. If there's any lie, I'll punish you severely!"

After all, li Cuihua was just a peasant woman who had not seen much of the world. When she heard County Magistrate Zhou's stern and dignified question, she was so frightened that she immediately confessed, " my Lord, I, li Cuihua, am Lin Sanniu's mother! My lord, everything this commoner has said is the truth. I'm not lying!"

The appearance of li Cuihua once again surprised all the spectators.

They would never have thought that the old lady was Lin Sanniu's mother. What was even more ridiculous and unbelievable was that the mother would treat her own son in such a way.

Shouldn't she be protecting him?

She, on the other hand, had betrayed her own son.

County Magistrate Zhou shouted again, " li Cuihua, repeat what you just said outside the court! If there's even the slightest lie, you'll be severely punished!"

Li Cuihua trembled in fear and said, " Yes, sir!"

Then, she repeated what she had just said.

This was great. Lin yuelan didn't need to find any other witnesses or evidence. Li Cuihua, Lin Sanniu's mother, was the best evidence.

Lin Sanniu's eyes were filled with disappointment and despair as he looked at his mother, whom he had been filial to since he was young.

In the past, he knew that his mother was biased. She was all biased towards the eldest, second, and fourth brothers, and he was like an adopted child.

However, the more it was like this, the more he wanted his mother and father's care and love. So, he worked hard and did everything to please them.

But now ...

The case was clear and distinct.

However, Lin yuelan had another suggestion as to how to judge Lin Sanniu. She said, " my Lord, Lin Sanniu is my father, after all. I should bear the responsibility for his mistakes. It can be considered as my filial piety. However, he has now stolen and destroyed my property for a total of 1400 taels. I do not intend to pursue the matter, nor do I need Lin Sanniu to compensate me. I ask for Your Excellency's discretion to give him a light sentence!"

However, Lin yuelan secretly made a hand gesture to County Magistrate Zhou and gave him a secret signal.

County Magistrate Zhou immediately understood and said, " Lin Sanniu, you are found guilty of stealing and destroying Lin yuelan's fields. However, in view of Lin yuelan's plea for leniency, I will now announce your verdict. Lin Sanniu was supposed to go to jail for three years and pay Lin yuelan five hundred taels of silver for her losses after taxes. However, someone had pleaded for him. Therefore he will continue working in Lin yuelan's family's fields until all the losses are paid! The execution will begin in three days!"

This was the result. Lin Laosan and his group received nothing. They returned to the Lin family Village, full of hatred for Lin yuelan.
