The Village Girl Who Jinxes Her Husband Is Filthy Rich

588 Confrontation in Court

“If it weren’t for this commoner’s survival instinct, taking advantage of the time when they were discussing how to deal with this commoner, perhaps this commoner would be dead already.”

Lin yuelan’s description gave the person who made the complaint a sense of fear.

“This was my family.” What a heartless father. They didn’t give a child a way out. And this child was their granddaughter, niece, and biological daughter.

Just as this child had said, if they were really afraid of being jinxed, then they should directly cut off all blood relations first and cut off all kinship. Then they would not be so-called relatives. Since they weren’t family, then the jinx wouldn’t be able to harm them.

However, how did these people do it?

It was only the second day of the rumor, and they were already so cruel to their own granddaughter, niece, and even daughter.

This was too terrifying!

After hearing Lin yuelan’s story, Lin Laosan and Lin Sanniu’s expressions turned ugly and angry.

This wretched girl had actually aired the “family scandal”.

This really made them angry and annoyed.

Lin Laosan’s face turned ashen as he scolded Lin yuelan angrily, “Damn girl, what nonsense are you talking about? If the Lin family really wanted to kill you back then, would you still be standing in court and being so disrespectful to your own grandfather and father?”

“you wretched girl, you should die. Otherwise, our Lin family will not have a good life!” A sharp female voice was heard from the side.

County Magistrate Zhou smacked the gavel heavily and said sternly, ” who is it that dares to roar in court? do you know what crime you should be charged with? ”

This sharp and shrill voice could only come from li Cuihua.

When she heard Lin yuelan say that they wanted to kill her, she was as angry as Lin Laosan. That was why she instinctively cursed at Lin yuelan.

At this moment, after being shouted at by County Magistrate Zhou, she was so scared that she immediately shrank her neck and kept quiet. She avoided her eyes and did not dare to look at County Magistrate Zhou in the High Hall.

After intimidating the people who were making a scene, County Magistrate Zhou immediately shouted sternly at Lin Sandou, ” how dare you, Lin Sandou, shout loudly in court. Do you know what crime you should be punished for? ”

Lin Laosan was immediately jolted awake by County Magistrate Zhou’s words. He kowtowed and begged for mercy. “please forgive me, my Lord. I know my mistake.”

County Magistrate Zhou said loudly with a serious expression, ” alright, I’ll spare you this time on account of your good attitude in admitting your guilt. If you do it again, you will be punished ten times, and no one will be able to take the punishment for you, do you understand?”

When Lin Laosan heard this, he couldn’t help but kowtow. “thank you, Your Excellency.”

County Magistrate Zhou nodded and said, “Good.”

Then, County Magistrate Zhou confirmed with Lin yuelan, ” Lin yuelan, are you telling the truth? Do you have any evidence to prove it?”

When Lin Laosan heard this, he immediately wanted to interrupt, but when he thought of County Magistrate Zhou’s words, he immediately didn’t dare to say anything.

Lin yuelan cupped her fists and replied, ” my Lord, everything I said is true. When I escaped from the Lin family’s courtyard, I ran into the village chief and the other villagers. They can vouch for me that it was the Lin family who wanted me dead.”

When County Magistrate Zhou heard this, he immediately turned to Lin Sanniu and asked, ” Lin Sanniu, is what Lin yuelan said true? Were you the ones who wanted to poison your own daughter?”

Lin Sanniu was lying on the ground. He didn’t dare to answer County Magistrate Zhou’s question, but he had no choice. He braced himself and said, “Your Excellency, it’s true!”

This matter could be verified in the Lin family Village, so even if he wanted to lie, he couldn’t.

The moment Lin Sanniu admitted to this, the crowd by the door immediately went into an uproar.

They couldn’t believe this.

Such a truth was truly too terrifying.

County Magistrate Zhou smacked the gavel again, and the heavy sound immediately resounded throughout the entire court.

County Magistrate Zhou asked sternly, ” Lin Sanniu, Lin Sandou, do you know that killing someone is a capital crime? ”

The moment Lin Sanniu heard about the death penalty, the pale Lin Sanniu immediately panicked. He kept kowtowing and said, ” please spare me, my Lord! I know I was wrong!”

County Magistrate Zhou continued, ” since you didn’t commit any serious mistakes in the past, Lin Yuelan was spared, and you can be spared from death. However, you cannot escape from the punishment!

“As the head of the Lin family and Lin yuelan’s grandfather, Lin Laosan had ordered his own son, Lin yuelan’s father, to kill Lin yuelan in secret. This was a serious crime, and he would be flogged thirty times. Lin Sanniu, you have committed the crime of intentional murder. Since you were following orders, you had no choice but to do so. Your sentence will be reduced to twenty flogs of the wooden plank. Execute it immediately!”

Very quickly, a bailiff pulled the two of them to a long bench and laid them down. Then, the rod that was as thick as a baby’s arm immediately landed heavily on them.

Everyone was shocked by this unexpected result.

Didn’t the father come to sue his daughter for being unfilial?

Why did this result seem to be so awkward?

The accused was fine, but the plaintiff listed a few crimes and then was punished.

In reality, this result shocked the Lin family members who had come with Lin Sanniu and Lin Laosan.

When they came, they were confident that they could sue Lin yuelan and get her money, house, shop, and everything else. Then, they could live a good life with a group of servants and be served.

However, in this court, they had never expected that before the case was filed, they, the plaintiff, would already be charged with a crime.

What went wrong?
