The Village Girl Who Jinxes Her Husband Is Filthy Rich

592 Not Guilty

There was a moment of silence in the court. For a moment, everyone did not know what this could do. Lin Yuelan was still unfilial.

Jiang Zhennan nodded and then turned to County Magistrate Zhou and said coldly, ” three years ago, Miss Lin had already returned her blood to her father and her flesh to her mother. So, she has returned all the kindness of raising her. If that’s the case, how can there be filial piety?”

When he said this, everyone was stunned and could not react in time.

County Magistrate Zhou was also stunned. He could not help but nod and say, ” that’s right! Blood returned to father, and flesh returned to mother. The debt of raising a child had been cleared, and there was indeed no such thing as filial piety. Lin Sanniu, do you still have something to say?”

County Magistrate Zhou asked Lin Sanniu sternly.

However, Lin Sanniu’s reaction surprised Lin yuelan.

Could this be his potential that was stimulated by a difficult situation?

Lin Sanniu said with conviction, ” my Lord, I didn’t force her to return blood and flesh. It was only because she wanted to leave the Lin family that she made the decision. Besides, the body is inherited from her parents. It’s unfilial of her to bleed and cut her flesh.”

Well, that made sense.

Jiang Zhennan said sternly, ” if she didn’t do this in the first place, she would have been killed by her so-called family and parents. Don’t you know that she just wants to live?”

She just wanted to live.

Each word was sharp and deafening!

In order to survive, some people would do anything. Moreover, this child was only forced to leave the family in a way that would hurt herself. She was forced to do this by her family.

Such parents were even more cruel and heartless.

However, filial piety was greater than everything!

Lin Sanniu replied, ” so what? Isn’t she fine now? As long as she didn’t die, did she think that she could deny that Lin Sanniu was her biological father just because she had lost two or three bowls of blood? As long as we’re her parents, no matter if it was before, now, or in the future, she has to be filial to us.”

When everyone heard this, they took a deep breath. It was sad for this child to meet such unreasonable and despicable parents.

County Magistrate Zhou frowned slightly. It was impossible for him to protect Lin yuelan in front of such unreasonable, shameless, and aggressive parents.

The crisp sound of a few claps could be heard.

Everyone turned to look at the voice and was stunned again.

The person who clapped was none other than Lin yuelan.

However, what did she mean by this?

“That’s right. No matter what, I have to be filial to my parents.” after Lin yuelan clapped a few times, her loud and clear voice resounded in everyone’s ears in the court. “So, Your Excellency, it’s indeed as third uncle Lin said. It’s only right and proper for me to be filial to them. There’s no room for argument!”

Upon hearing this, everyone was very surprised. County Magistrate Zhou, Zhou wencai, little twelve, and Jiang Zhennan all thought doubtfully, ‘could it be that Lin yuelan really intended to be filial to these shameless relatives?’

“However, ” Lin yuelan suddenly changed the topic, ” according to the laws of the Long Yan Kingdom, all children need to be filial to their parents only when the men pass the age of 20, and the women reach the age of 15.”

As soon as Lin yuelan said this, the eyes of the people who were worried about her immediately lit up, and they couldn’t help but feel excited.

Zhou Wencai immediately patted his head and said loudly, ” that’s right. In article 1633 of the ‘law of filial piety,’ there is indeed such a written rule!”

County Magistrate Zhou’s furrowed brows immediately relaxed. He stroked his beard and nodded. “that’s right. There is indeed such a written law!”

“Your Excellency, what a coincidence, ” Lin yuelan immediately cupped her fists at County Magistrate Zhou and said, ” I’m more than 12 this year, not yet 15. I’m still two or three years away from the required age!

Lin yuelan was only twelve years old, and it would take three years to reach 15.

So, at her current age, even if her parents wanted her to be filial, they would have to wait until she was of age.

Lin Sanniu and Lin Laosan, as well as li Cuihua and Zhou Guixiang, who was listening from the outside, were all flustered.

All of them only wanted to sue Lin yuelan for being unfilial and then get the house and money from her. They didn’t even consider the issue of age.

Besides, they only knew that as long as the parents went to the county government to sue their children for being unfilial, as long as the government took the case, then the child would definitely be charged with the crime of “unfilial.”

They had never heard of such a law. It was too unfair and disadvantageous to them.

“that’s impossible, ” Lin Sanniu shook his head in disbelief, his face pale. “that’s impossible. Why haven’t we heard of it before? You are definitely trying to scam us!”

As for why he had never heard of it?

As far as they knew, most of the cases where parents sued their children for unfilial piety were when the children were already of age, so there was no need to mention this at all.

Pa!

County Magistrate Zhou once again slammed the gavel on the table and shouted, ” Lin Sanniu, are you questioning the laws of our country? Are you questioning me? If you don’t believe me, someone, go to the judicial Library and bring me the “law of filial piety”!”

“Yes, my Lord!” Someone immediately went to do it.

As Lin Sanniu and the rest were feeling uneasy, someone quickly brought a thick book over. This book was obviously the “the laws of filial piety”.

When the advisor flipped to article 1633, he first showed it to the Lord. Then, County Magistrate Zhou showed the law to the bystanders.

Some of the bystanders, who were literate, read out loud for everyone to hear.

In the end, County Magistrate Zhou picked up the gavel and slammed it on the table. He said with a serious expression, ” silence! The plaintiff Lin Sanniu has sued his daughter Lin yuelan for being unfilial, but Lin Yuelan is not guilty of the crime!”
