Chapter 92 Please Family Rules

At this time, Mother Lin said again: "They ruined my daughter-in-law's reputation, if I can bear it, wouldn't it be a joke for others!
Besides, they can talk about my daughter-in-law today, but who is it tomorrow?
There was also Mei Niang back then, who was guarded by orphans and widows in the village, but suddenly rumors spread, and you all remember the results later! "

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed.

Mei Niang was an escapee, she was about to starve to death, and the old bachelor in the village gave her a bowl of brown rice.

She is kind.

Furthermore, she was afraid of being hungry and wandering all the way.

The old bachelor delivered meals for a few days, and she followed him to the old bachelor's house. There was a big age gap between the two of them, but they lived a good life.

Mei Niang is beautiful, and the old bachelor married Mei Jiao Niang, and when he became a family, he became hardworking.

If he had no land, he would open up wasteland, and if he had no money, he would go to the wharf to carry goods.

After waiting for two years, a dilapidated thatched hut was repaired into a small yard, and the two gave birth to a sensible son.

It's a pity that the old bachelor's life was not good. He was bitten by a snake when he went to clear the land, and he couldn't be saved.

Meiniang led her two-year-old son to give the old bachelor a splendid burial.

In the future, no matter how others persuade her to remarry, she will not be moved by the best husband's family.

She just stayed in the small courtyard with peace of mind, guarding her son, and guarding the deceased old bachelor.

However, rumors suddenly spread in the village, saying that Meiniang is a prostitute who buys her body for money every night when her son is asleep.

One by one spoke with nose and eyes, as if they had seen it with their own eyes.

The rumors and gossip fermented more and more fiercely with the passage of time. As soon as Meiniang went out, she would receive contemptuous glances and pointing words from others.

It's not that Mei Niang has never looked for Li Zhenghe and the clan elders, but Li Zhenghe and the clan elders scolded the villagers.

On the back foot, a young couple quarreled because the husband cheated.

The wife asked her natal brother to question her repeatedly, and the husband named Mei Niang to protect the woman.

As soon as the wife was overwhelmed, she went to the door and scolded Meiniang severely in front of the children, and called her sisters-in-law to strip Meiniang's clothes clean, and smashed things in the yard.

Then as soon as the young couple left, other people spat at the door, and some people poured manure into her yard at night.

In the early morning of the next day, people found Mei Niang and her child hanged on the tree next to the gate of the yard in red clothes.

If someone died in the village, that would be a big deal.

But the patriarch and the others didn't want Li Zheng to be replaced, so they suppressed the matter.

They asked people to bury the bodies of Mei Niang and the child beside the grave of the old bachelor.

What's more, people in the village are very taboo about dying in red clothes.

Even if this matter passed like this, no one in the village mentioned the matter of Meiniang again.

Now hearing Mother Lin mentioning Mei Niang again, most of the people in the ancestral hall had a hint of guilt and fear in their eyes.

Especially those two women, they were scared to pee!

A trace of dissatisfaction flashed in Lin Zhiyuan's eyes.

Meiniang's death back then was a stain on his life as the patriarch.

He cast his gaze on Lin Huiniang, and said angrily, "Daughter-in-law Tada, this is so good, why are you mentioning Meiniang!"

Lin's mother drooped her eyes to hide the disdain in her eyes, she whispered: "My niece and daughter-in-law know my mistake!"

Lin Zhiyuan choked up.

After Lin's mother disturbed her, Lin Zhiyuan became even more angry with Changgui's daughter-in-law.

Holding his crutches, he slammed on the bluestone slab, and said in a deep voice, "Please follow the family rules!"

Everyone's faces changed.

The four big men squeezed out of the crowd, picked up the family rules in front of the memorial tablet, the mahogany boards and benches on both sides, and squeezed into the crowd again.

The patriarch took over the patriarchal rules, and he had already memorized the contents of them by heart, and after a while, he turned to the one that talks too much.

He coughed lightly, and said solemnly: "No. 30 and eight rules of the Lin clan, those who talk too much will be punished with a staff of twenty!

Thinking about the first offense, this time I will be punished five times with a cane, and I will be punished by kneeling for three days in the ancestral hall!
Do it now! "

A bench has been placed in the clearing.

Two big men stood on both sides of the bench holding a mahogany plank, while the other two walked towards the rich daughter-in-law and the others.

Every step forward, the nine women were frightened and took a step back.

As for the other two women, after being scared to urinate, they became soft-legged shrimps, unable to crawl!
These men are not merciful, they raised their hands to pick up a woman and walked over.

Throwing it directly made the woman lie on the bench, and then the big man holding the mahogany board began to wave the long board in his hand.

"Snapped--"

"Snapped--"

The wooden plank fell coldly and mercilessly, and a woman was fainted in two hits. Seeing this, the woman who was carried by a big man turned pale with fright and trembled all over.

But at this moment, she was being carried like a chick, and she could only watch helplessly as the fainted woman was hit by the board three more times.

Then a big man carried away the woman who was unconscious on the bench, and was thrown onto the bench.

"Snapped--"

As soon as the board landed, a burst of screams resounded through the sky, scaring the spectators around to flee.

Another board fell, and she also fainted.

Lin Guifen looked at the two comatose women, knelt on the ground in panic, cried and begged:

"Forgive me! I don't dare anymore, I promise I won't gossip again in the future, please don't hit me anymore"

Immediately afterwards, the begging voices of several other women also rose and fell, which was really ear-piercing.

Lin Zhiyuan kept a cold face, unmoved.

If I knew today, why was it in the first place!
Time passed slowly, and all eleven women were beaten five times and passed out.

Dr. Lin had been waiting for a long time, he took his pulse carefully, and after confirming that there was no problem, he took out the golden sore medicine from the medicine box and handed it to the patriarch.

It is impossible to kneel in the ancestral hall when people are dizzy, but this does not mean that it can be avoided.

The patriarch said with a sullen face: "The relatives of these eleven people will stay, and everyone else will get out!"

Everyone dispersed one after another, but they gathered at the entrance of the ancestral hall. They were all curious!
In the ancestral hall, the patriarch distributed the golden sore medicine and asked them to apply the medicine to the eleven women.

After waiting for the good medicine, he took a futon and put it under them.

"Let's go out when everything is done. Remember to send food and medicine for these three days. Although they are at fault, they can't kill people. Do you understand?"

Lin Zhiyuan said in a cold voice: "If you dare to obey others, then their end will be your end!"

Except for the relatives of the eldest daughter-in-law who is her sister-in-law, and the relatives of the two mother-in-laws who are daughter-in-laws, the relatives of the other eight women are all mother-in-laws.

But upon hearing the patriarch's words, there was an unnatural look on his face.

Lin Zhiyuan didn't bother to care about their thoughts, he turned and left before they could say anything.

Lin Boyuan and Lin Jinyuan followed quickly.

The people outside the ancestral hall saw signs of the door being opened, and quickly ran away without a trace.

Lin Hongfu remained expressionless until he saw the three of Lin Zhiyuan disappearing, then he curled the corners of his mouth mockingly.

He straightened his back and called out to Lin Guifen's mother-in-law.

"Sister-in-law Lin, is Lin Shen still used to doing that errand now?"

The old lady wanted to run quickly to hide, but when she heard that her baby bump was being mentioned, she knew she couldn't hide.
