Chapter 99

Mrs. Lin couldn't hold back her face anymore.

"Yan Niang!" Mrs. Lin shouted, "Don't be so big or small, and apologize to the old patriarch!"

"You guys surnamed Lin are colluding and want to bully me alone?" Mrs. Lin lost her head for a moment, and wanted to fight alone against a group of people surnamed Lin.

Mrs. Lin didn't expect Mrs. Lin to have a stubborn temper at the moment, and she refused to bow her head and give in. Isn't this going to push the Lin family into the pit of fire?
Patriarch Lin is about to detain the Lin family, how can we add fuel to the fire?
"Yanniang, you can do whatever you like alone, but you have to think about Xiaoqian and Zhiyuan. As a wife and mother, don't you even know how to behave properly?" Mrs. Lin wished she could be as big as Mrs. Lin Scratch her ear, so that she can be completely woken up.

Mrs. Lin woke up instantly as if a basin of cold water had poured her head and face.

She was really angry, she was too foolish to eat too much, and she wanted to confront the patriarch head-on. If she really offended the clansman, the future of Lin Xiaoqian and Lin Zhiyuan would be ruined.

"I'm sorry, patriarch, I've lost my head recently, and even the sorceress said that I was an evil person. I just said those words, but I didn't know why, so I just blurted them out. You have to believe that this is definitely not my intention. I am here to tell you You apologized!" Madam Lin immediately bowed her knees and apologized.

Patriarch Lin let out another cold snort of disdain, and said: "Where am I qualified to accept an apology from you, the second-rank madam? I, an old man, have buried myself in my heart, and I will have a good life in a few days. I didn't come out today for the sake of For myself, but for the descendants of the Lin family!"

"Yes, the old patriarch understands righteousness, and he must not be as knowledgeable as a woman like me. Please hold your hand high, please forgive me this time, and I will kowtow to you!" Mrs. Lin said as she knelt down, completely admitting cowardice .

Patriarch Lin didn't care about her.

"You don't need to kowtow. I didn't come here to learn from you. I just want to find out who started this fire. It can't be burned for no reason." Patriarch Lin said.

Lin Xiaoqian quietly pulled Mrs. Lin up, and then said to Patriarch Lin: "Old Patriarch, our family does have an unshirkable responsibility for this matter. We are willing to take on the responsibility of rebuilding the shrine, and we are also willing to be responsible for rebuilding the ancestor's monument."

"Do you think it will be all right if you rebuild it? That's because the ancestors got angry. If you don't appease the ancestors' anger, what's the use of pretending to be peaceful?" Patriarch Lin is not easy to fool.

Lin Xiaoqian asked hesitantly: "Then according to the wishes of the patriarch and the elders, how should we solve it?"

"Naturally, we must find out the truth and send the offender to the ancestors to be dealt with according to the family law, so as to appease the anger of the ancestors!" Patriarch Lin said.

Lin Xiaoqian became humble. In fact, he had been suspicious of Mrs. Lin for a long time, but now, Mrs. Lin can no longer afford this matter alone. He has to think about the whole family, and must not involve Mrs. Lin. .

"Old patriarch, calm down, this murderer is not easy to find out, the heavy rain washed away all traces, how to find out?" Lin Xiaoqian asked.

Patriarch Lin asked: "I started to investigate why you borrowed the shrine to pray for blessings, and then started to investigate why your daughter stayed alone in the shrine. Since she was chanting scriptures and praying in it, where did the fire start and how did she start?" Probably the clearest."

"Then...then call Ranran in and ask." Lin Xiaoqian said.

Patriarch Lin nodded, and Lin Siran and Lin Qianyu were brought in again.

Lin Xiaoqian then asked: "Ranran, the patriarch wants to ask you a few words, you have to think carefully before answering, don't talk nonsense, let alone spout something credible, understand?"

Lin Xiaoqian gave Lin Biran a wink, naturally warning her that some things should not be said indiscriminately.

Patriarch Lin frowned, and said to Lin Sianran: "Ran girl, you don't have to listen to your father, you just need to tell me the truth about what happened that night. As for what we old people think, it has nothing to do with you."

Lin Siran nodded and said: "Yes, my sister and I were ordered by my grandmother to pray for my mother that day. She said that she invited a witch to come over. Mother exorcising evil spirits and avoiding misfortunes, we went after dinner. After midnight, my sister suddenly said that she was sleepy and wanted to wash her face. She said she would be back in a while, but she didn't come back after a long time. I was a little worried and wanted to go out to see my sister. I didn’t come back, but the door was locked and I couldn’t get out. I went to push the window, but the window couldn’t be pushed. I was very scared, thinking that a ghost was hitting the wall, but I didn’t know it was on fire at this time!”

Lin Sizan seemed to be shrouded in fear at this time. When he said this, he was trembling, his face was pale, and tears were falling down. A group of old men shook their heads and sighed, showing their unbearable expressions.

"The fire was so big that it climbed up the curtain from the window, and burned from the curtain to the beam of the house. I beat on the door desperately and called for help, but there was no one there. The smoke choked me so much that I couldn't even shout. My maid Sui Er came over, she smashed open the door desperately, but the beams collapsed, I was trapped in the house, I couldn’t go anywhere, I had no strength, I thought I might really die. But no Thinking of the blessings of the ancestors, there was a heavy rain and the fire was extinguished... Then my father and grandmother came."

Lin Siran said while crying, covering her face with a veil, as if she had endless grievances.

Patriarch Lin let out a long sigh, and said, "Good boy, did the fire start from the window? What was placed by the window? Is there a candle?"

Lin Siran shook his head blankly, and said, "I can't remember, I'm too scared..."

Mrs. Lin took the opportunity of wiping Lin Siran's tears, and gave Lin Siran a look. She is as smart as Lin Siran, so how could she not understand her grandmother's mind?It can't be said, but to be clear, she has become the target of public criticism.

Both Mrs. Lin and Lin Xiaoqian breathed a sigh of relief, Lin Siran was still smart after all, and was not so confused as to tell the truth.

Mrs. Lin was secretly proud that Lin Siran was too young a girl, even if she wanted to kill her, she was powerless to resist, which made Mrs. Lin feel happy from the bottom of her heart.

Qin's dead ghost woman wanted to scare herself even after being a ghost, but how could she be so easily frightened?She scares herself, so she will deal with her daughter, who is more ruthless?
At this time, Mrs. Lin really wanted to go to the Qin family's grave to show off her power, so that the dead Qin family could fully understand that she would always be a winner, and she would never have a chance to turn around. Not only her, but also her daughter and Her fate is the same, she can only become a clay figurine in Su Yan's hands, kneading casually.

Patriarch Lin had no choice but to continue to embarrass Lin Sizan. After all, she was a little girl. After being so frightened, it was understandable that she didn't remember what happened.

"But why are the doors and windows closed?" Patriarch Lin asked.
