590 Confrontation in Court
Such cold and heartless children who did not respect filial piety would be struck by lightning.
At this moment, everyone’s pitiful and sympathetic expressions toward Lin yun instantly changed. They began to condemn and curse Lin yun.
“Such a cold-hearted daughter, no wonder she’s called the jinx of her family.”
“That’s true. It’s no wonder that the family wanted to deal with her in secret. They had long recognized her ungrateful personality.”
“so, the family didn’t do anything wrong, ” someone said, and then eximed, ” didn’t they get beaten up for nothing? ”
“That’s right. In that case, the father and son’s beatings were in vain.”
“tsk, tsk, look at this. Although she cut off all family ties three years ago, she still owes her family nine years for raising her. How can she just watch their own grandfather and father get flogged? ”
“That’s right. Such an unfilial person should receive the most severe punishment.”
“Punish her, punish her....”
A series of shouts of “punish her” rang out in the court.
County Magistrate Zhou frowned. His expression was unusually serious. He did not expect that these people’s emotions would be affected by the Lin father and son.
He looked at Lin yun with some worry. After all, the situation was not in her favor.
After a moment, he mmed the gavel on the table and shouted, ” Silence!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the constables on both sides stepped on the floor with sticks and shouted, ” Wei Wu!”
After all, the dignity of the officials was still present in the court. These people immediately fell silent. Soon, the court became quiet.
“Lin yun, is what Lin Sanniu said true? ” County Magistrate Zhou asked loudly.
When Lin Sanniu drummed for a case, Lin yun knew that they hade prepared.
She had been in the county recently, so she did not know if Chen Xiaoqing was sick or not.
However, she now knew that even if Chen Xiaoqing were not sick, she would be made sick by these people in order to frame her.
She lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment. Then, she cupped her fists and said to County Magistrate Zhou, ” Your Excellency, some of the facts are true. I don’t know much about Auntie Lin’s illness. This was because I had been in the county all this time. Before I came to the county, auntie Lin was still working in the fields with a hoe in high spirits.
“Therefore, third uncle Lin’s im that I didn’t pay for Auntie Lin’s treatment wasplete nonsense. Besides,”
Lin yun changed the topic and said sharply,
“I know a little about medicine. Although I’m not very proficient in it, I’ve earned the title of ‘young Divine Doctor’ in An Ding town.
“May I ask my Lord, when auntie Lin is sick, third uncle Lin didn’t ask me to treat her but instead wanted me to give him money. What kind of logic is this?
“Could it be that I need to pay a fee to treat my mother? Or, is third uncle Lin going to pay me the medical fees?”
The ‘Mrs. Lin’ whom Lin yun was talking about, was Chen Xiaoqing, so it was obvious that third uncle Lin was referring to Lin Sanniu.
No one in the court thought that such a form of address was wrong.
After all, they had already cut off all blood rtions, so they could no longer call each other ‘father’ and ‘mother’.
As soon as Lin yun’s words left her mouth, the crowd in the court gasped in surprise.
This child was actually a Master of Medicine. She was hailed as the ” little Divine Doctor “. It could be seen that her medical skills were not ordinary.
If that was the case, then Lin Sanniu’s excuse that the child’s mother was sick was not valid.
Although the town’s doctors were not very good, they were already the best for these vigers. Since this child was called a young Divine Doctor, it was obvious that her medical skills were better than all the doctors in the town.
“Moreover, it’s true that third uncle Lin, third Grandpa Lin, and grandma li dide to me to ask for the so-called alimony. But, Sir, do you know how much they asked me for? ” Lin yun asked in a serious manner.
The corner of County Magistrate Zhou’s mouth twitched, and he asked very cooperatively, ” how much do they want? ”
Lin yun raised a hand and spread her fingers. She swept her gaze across the surroundings and said, ” five hundred taels!
“What?” The bystander was immediately shocked, ” five hundred taels!”
Five hundred taels. They actually asked a child for five hundred taels of alimony. How could they ask for that?
Lin yun continued to borate on the process of their demand for alimony, ” back then, I happened to obtain divine power and fought a big tiger on Mount da ao. When they saw this, they immediately rushed over and used the excuse of family support to snatch the big tiger that I had risked my life to hunt. I was not willing, so I used the excuse that I started to work in the fields when I was three years old and took on all the housework to hold them off.
“At that time, I thought that they would no longer ask me for alimony. Who would have thought that after I came to the county town for a few days, they would raise five taels of silver that could have been used to treat aunt Lin’s illness and use it to sue me? Your Excellency, I am truly wronged!”
Zhou Wencai’s lips twitched when he heard the truth in Lin yun’s words. He couldn’t help but admire Lin yun’s alertness. She was able to beat them at their own game and turned everything around.
Lin Sanniu used Chen Xiaoqing’s illness as an excuse to frame Lin yun. The only thing Lin Yun made was a im that she noticed Lin Sanniu’s wife was not sick at all before she came to the county.
Moreover, Lin yun’s medical skills were so good that she could treat her mother. It was unreasonable for Lin Sanniu to ask for money from Lin Yun to get someone else to treat his wife.
Besides, didn’t Lin Sanniu say that he didn’t have the money to treat his wife? Then, where did he get the five taels ofint fee for suing Lin yun for being unfilial?
The truth of Lin Sanniu and Lin yun’s story confused everyone. They didn’t know which side was telling the truth and which side was lying.
However, regardless of whether it was true or not, they were happy to watch the show from the side.
