Chapter 1173: Chapter 1173: Let’s Inform Clan Chief Lin

Everyone originally thought he had come to fetch his own father back home, even Elder Mr. Zhou himself believed that was the case.

Who knew that Second Master Zhou was not only not there to bring Elder Mr. Zhou back, but he also scolded his own father, as well as his elder brother and sister-in-law, without showing the slightest courtesy.

He thought that after today, Old Madam Zhou’s days of suffering would truly begin.

Without the house in Qianlin County and without the support of her second son, the second daughter-in-law treated him as an enemy, pointing at his nose and cursing him.

The rest of his life would now have to be spent in Ya Village, facing the loess and having the sky as his blanket.

"In the future, the Zhou family need not be concerned with anymore, Elder Mr. Zhou should be clear on that now," Lin Caisang said.

"I think he will still cause trouble."

Lin Changhong, however, disagreed with his sister’s words, thinking that Elder Mr. Zhou had an unusually thick face and was capable of doing anything that was immoral and unconscionable.

Especially now, Elder Mr. Zhou had become someone with nothing to lose and was capable of doing anything.

"We are a large family, are we afraid that we can’t deal with the Zhou family?" Lin Caisang asked with a light laugh, questioning her elder brother.

The people of Ya Village, although not all supportive of the Lin Family, would at least consider the abundance of silver in her hands and not dare to harm her. Even if Elder Mr. Zhou truly wanted to do something, she could easily deal with him, couldn’t she?

"Also, since they are going to live in the village, the Zhou family does have a few acres of land, don’t they? The money from digging the pond should naturally include their share. Big brother, go and mention this to Clan Chief Lin," she said.

Upon hearing this, Lin Changhong raised his eyebrows and nodded.

He would naturally mention this; why should the Zhou family get the better deal?

...

The Zhou family.

A long time after Second Master Zhou left, Elder Mr. Zhou just sat in the hall in a stunned silence, without saying a word.

At this moment, he couldn’t describe how remorseful he felt. How could he have thought that Lin Caisang was someone he could manipulate at will? Now that he had ended up in such a situation, he really had it coming.

But...

How could he resign himself to this situation, when even his own son wouldn’t take care of him and expected him to fend for himself in Ya Village?

"Father, you should have asked Second Brother for some silver just now. We need money to live in the village too," Old Master Zhou said with a deep look at his father, reminding him.

Though Second Brother had scolded father mercilessly, without any courtesy.

But after all, he is father’s son. How could a son truly neglect his father? Even if they were to live in Ya Village, filial support for father shouldn’t be lacking.

Otherwise, father could go to the county office and sue Second Brother!

"Shut your mouth!"

Elder Mr. Zhou, upon hearing his words, glared hatefully at this son who was particularly adept at causing him trouble.

"If it weren’t for that good son of yours causing so much trouble for the Zhou family, would Second refuse to care for me? It’s all because of your doing!"

He truly regretted it now. If he had known, he should have cultivated Second’s son well. Why did he pick such a useless clod, causing himself so much aggravation?

"I..."

Old Master Zhou opened his mouth to speak.

He wanted to say, wasn’t it all because of what his father indulged in? Including those few times taking Liang to the Lin Family – it was all his father’s doing, and his own advice had been useless.
