Chapter 290 - The Zhou Family Making Trouble
The Village Girl Who Jinxes Her Husband Is Filthy Rich
Translator: Lonelytree
Some villagers respected Lin Yiwei, but of course, there were also some who disliked him. This became more obvious when Lin Yiwei showed a clear bias toward Lin Yuelan.
Liu Liujiao asked, âDoesnât our chief tell you that the person who bought your familyâs land is the jinx of our village?â
âNo, not at all!â Mrs. Zhou and her son, Zhou Lin, immediately shook their heads.
Liu Liujiao was very satisfied with this answer. She immediately said sarcastically, âthis is the village chiefâs fault. Even if he was biased towards that girl, he couldnât keep this a secret, right? Doesnât he know that the jinx will curse anyone who gets too close to her? Hasnât he learned the lesson with his own family?â She was talking about Lin Mingqing.
At that moment, the door to Lin Yiweiâs courtyard opened.
Lin Yiwei and his eldest son, Lin Mingliang, happened to hear Liu Liujiaoâs last sentence.
Lin Mingliang was furious. He yelled at Liu Liujiao, âLiu Liujiao, we donât need you to meddle in our family affairs!â
Lin Yiweiâs sharp eyes also swept across Liu Liujiaoâs face. His calm and dignified aura made Liu Liujiao panic.
She just wanted to ruin Lin Yiweiâs image in front of the villagers, but she didnât want to really offend him. Everyone knew that the village chief could easily make their lives miserable if he wanted to.
Liu Liujiao backed off guiltily and shut up.
Lin Yiwei only gave Liu Liujiao a sharp look, then asked Zhou Pingâs wife and Zhou Lin, âwhatâs going on?â
Lin Yiwei was feeding his younger son at home. Then, he heard a commotion outside, so he followed his eldest son out to take a look. He was shocked to hear Liu Liujiao demeaning him before he came out.
However, when he saw Zhou Pingâs family of three, he frowned and did not know what was going on.
......
As soon as Madam Zhou saw Lin Yiwei come out, she lowered her head and was slightly happy.
Then, she pointed at Lin Yiweiâs nose and scolded him bitterly, âLin Yiwei, what are you trying to do? How dare you introduce your village jinx to buy my familyâs land? Are you trying to get my whole family killed?â
When Lin Mingliang saw Madam Zhou pointing at his father and scolding him, he immediately shouted angrily, âShut up!â
Madam Zhou immediately knelt down and hugged Zhou Pingâs head. She cried, âHusband, wake up! Look at how our family has been bullied. No one is standing up for usâ¦â
As Lin Yiwei listened, there was a faint trace of anger on his face. However, his good upbringing made sure that he didnât lose his temper.
He asked again, âZhou Pingâs family, explain yourself clearly. What do you mean by Iâve harmed you? I am a righteous man. What have I done to you?â
Zhou Lin seemed to have been waiting for Lin Yiwei to say this. His face was instantly filled with anger, and he shouted, âLin Yiwei, you know that the person you brought to buy our land is a jinx. Why didnât you say anything? Look at what had happened. Your jinx caused my fatherâs leg to be broken. Heâs still in a coma because of poor treatment. â
Hearing this, Lin Yiweiâs face darkened. He said sternly to Zhou Pingâs wife, âZhou Pingâs wife, when your family wanted to sell your land, I told you that the buyer is a young lady from my village. She has a bad reputation and is known as the jinx. However, you were in a hurry to get the money, so you agreed to sell without thinking. â
As he said this, his sharp and majestic eyes shot toward Zhou Pingâs wife.
Madam Zhouâs eyes flickered, and a look of panic flashed across her face. At this moment, she could not admit that Lin Yiwei was telling the truth.
She gritted her teeth and said, âno, you definitely didnât say that!â
After all, only Lin Yiwei, Zhou Ping, Zhou Pingâs wife, and Lin Yuelan were there that day. As long as they did not admit it, no one could prove that Lin Yiwei had said it.
Zhou Lin seemed to be even more furious now.
He pointed at Lin Yiwei and shouted, âLin Yiwei, donât think that you can force my parents to admit to your falsehood because youâre the chief of the Lin family Village! You clearly tried to scam my family. My fatherâs injury is caused by you!â
