BXBX NOVEL Chapter 51 - Nine Years
Chapter 51: Nine Years
Wasn’t this a little unreasonable?
After all, the girl had cut off all relations with Lin Laosan’s family three years ago. At that time, Lin Yuelan, who was only nine years old, had already shed two big bowls of blood and returned them to the Lin family.
So, what was going on?
Lin Daniu was a person who cared about his face. He believed that in the future, he would be the father of an elementary scholar. Therefore, he would usually put on an arrogant look and look at the dirty villagers who were covered in mud with disdain. However, Lin Dazong wasn’t a scholar yet. He wouldn’t offend the village elders lest it affected Lin Dazong’s reputation.
However, Lin Daniu was the same age as Lin Dawei. When Lin Daniu was blocked by the boorish Lin Dawei, he immediately flew into a rage, “Lin Dawei, this is the Lin family’s business. It’s none of your business!”
Of course, Lin Daniu knew that his family had severed blood relations with the jinx, so it was unreasonable for him to claim the big tiger.
But so what?
Were they going to hand the tiger over to the jinx? Of course not! His son, Lin Dazong needed a large sum of money. Lin Daniu had also promised some jewelry to the widow as well as the daughter of Official Li’s family he had hooked up with
He sneered, “How is this your Lin family matter? I remember clearly that the girl has broken off all relationships with Lin Laosan’s family three years ago. She has even returned two bowls of blood to you. Do you really think you can carry this big tiger back to your home with the whole village watching?” Lin Dawei pointed out the obvious.
Lin Daniu was embarrassed to the point that his ears were red. However, he believed that he was a cultured person and wouldn’t bother with a boorish person. He snorted coldly and said, “I won’t quibble with a boorish person!”
Lin Daweo was so angry that he laughed. He was about to continue this argument with Lin Daniu when Li Cuihua decided to throw a tantrum.
Li Cuihua said confidently to everyone, “So what if the jinx shed two bowls of blood with my family. My family has raised her for nine years. She has to repay us, right? Do you think we’ve raised the jinx nine years for free?
“In the past, she had problems finding her own food, so I never asked her for compensation. But now that she is capable of carrying a big tiger down the mountain, isn’t it time for her to repay the Lin Family for raising her for nine years?”
The f*ck, how could Li Cuihua be so shameless? She even brought up the issue from before the family separation ritual. How shameless could she be?
Who didn’t know that Lin Yuelan was forced to work for the family since she was three? Normally, she had to work with her parents, and she had to wash clothes, sweep the floor, and cook. She was given the least amount of food in the family. Which family would treat their granddaughter as cruel as Lin Laosan and his wife?
Lin Yuelan was enslaved to this family since she was born. Then, when her family heard that she was a jinx, they wanted to kill her. They even ordered the girl’s father to drown her. And Li Cuihua still had the face to ask for nine years of compensation for raising her?
Of course, some people did agree with Li Cuihua. After all, Lin Yuelan was raised by Lin Laosan’s family for nine years, right? Since their relations had been severed, Lin Yuelan was obliged to pay the compensation to Lin Laosan’s family for the nine years they had raised her.
Lin Dawei laughed, hearing Li Cuihui’s bizarre reasoning. Just as he was about to retort, Lin Yuelan, who had been sneering coldly beside him, suddenly stood up and said, “Uncle Dawei thank you for your kindness! However, this is a matter between me, Lin Yuelan, and Lin Laosan’s family. Let me settle it myself!”
Seeing Lin Yuelan’s calm and collected appearance, David Lin was no longer angry.
He believed that the child who had been sent back from the Palace of Hell could handle herself. Therefore, he was happy to watch the show from the side. He also didn’t want people to gossip that he had ulterior motives in helping Lin Yuelan.
Lin Yuelan turned her head and looked at Li Cuihua with a cold smile. “Elder Li, you said that you want me to return the favor to thank you for raising me for nine years, right? In compensation, you have to carry this big tiger away.”
Li Cuihua’s disgust towards Lin Yuelan was obvious. When she saw Lin Yuelan, she wanted to vomit.
Therefore, when Lin Yuelan looked at her, she snorted coldly with her nose facing the sky, “Of course! Since you have nothing to do with my family anymore. Then, you have to pay back everything we have done for you in the first nine years of your life!”
Lin Yuelan looked up at the silent Lin Laosan and asked him again, “Elder Lin Laosan, do you agree with what your wife said?” Lin Yuelan no longer addressed them as grandpa and grandma but Elder Li and Elder Lin.
It was not that Lin Yuelan wanted to be rude, but Lin Laosan and Li Cuihua forced her to do so.
In the past, after Lin Yuelan cut ties with them, she would still run into them in the village. When Lin Yuelan greeted them as Grandpa and Grandma, she would be scolded and beaten up by Li Cuihua.
Therefore, in the future, whenever Lin Yuelan ran into them, she would take a detour. Sometimes, when she couldn’t avoid them, she could only endure the humiliation and be beaten and scolded by them.
From then on, Lin Yuelan never greeted them as her family anymore. She never greeted her former parents as her dad and mom either.
Lin Xinlan’s host, Lin Yuelan, thus greeted them as Elder Li, Elder Lin, Auntie Lin, and Uncle Li. In spite of everything, she made sure to extend them enough courtesy.
