Chapter 466: Chapter 466 Lady Jin’s Arrival and Confrontation (4)_1
Lin Ershuan didn’t expect Jin Lingling to turn the tables on him again, and he quickly retorted, "No, no, this isn’t my handiwork. Miss, if you don’t believe me, you are fully welcome to come and see for yourself. This, and this, the wooden pegs of these two wheels are completely different. You can tell at a glance which was made by me and which was not."
It’s the same with carpenters, as it is with anyone else who works with their hands; they can recognize their own work no matter how much time has passed. The Jin family runs a vinegar brewery and couldn’t possibly fail to recognize their own vinegar if they tasted it elsewhere. What Lin Ershuan explained was precisely this concept.
Lin Yuan looked at Jin Lingling with cold eyes, her voice full of discontent, "Second Miss Jin, how can you be so certain that this wheelchair was tampered with by my brother? May I ask, he’s never even met Old Lady Jin face to face, so why would he want to harm her? Besides, if he really wanted to harm her, he most certainly wouldn’t meddle with his own work – wouldn’t that be too obvious? If even you could grasp at this, couldn’t others see it too?"
"Maybe he did it on purpose! Or perhaps, someone bought him off to do someone else’s dirty work!" Jin Lingling implied with her words, only to realize after speaking that Lin Yuan’s last sentence seemed like an insult to her.
Well, Lin Yuan, you dare to insult people in Jin Mansion, thinking just because you are from Fuman Building, you can behave so recklessly!
Before Jin Lingling could retort, Lin Yuan had already turned to Lady Jin and said, "Madam, since my brother has found the fault in this wheelchair, it proves his innocence. Furthermore, he said that the wooden peg has been replaced and not made by him – there must be a reason for that. Why not we ask Madam to visit his shop and look for a matching peg? If it can be found, we will admit our fault. However, if it cannot, I ask Madam to be fair and not accuse us of unfounded crimes."
Lin Yuan spoke with confidence and righteousness, causing Lady Jin to be momentarily taken aback, her view of the woman increasing a notch. No wonder she had caught the eye of Boss and Young Master of Fuman Building – such a woman would be likeable to her as well.
But then she thought of Lin Siyu at home, who only knew how to pout and add to her troubles, and Lady Jin felt disgusted, as if she had swallowed a fly. They were both from the same family; how could they be so different!
With a wave of her hand, Lady Jin immediately sent a young servant to Lin Ershuan’s shop to investigate. To prevent any mishaps, Old Lady Jin also sent Mother Feng to accompany him.
Lin Yuan was a bit worried that Mother Feng might be bribed, and just as she was about to speak, she saw Jin Yuyu gently shake her head from across the room, then her eyes swept towards Mother Feng, nodding her head.
Lin Yuan then realized that Mother Feng must be a close confidante of Old Lady Jin, not someone easily swayed by bribery, and she felt relieved.
Meanwhile, the family of Second Oldest Jin appeared somewhat panicked. Lin Ershuan’s shop had always been under their watch, and he was a very cautious man, who always followed customers closely without slack. Therefore, it was impossible for Second Oldest Jin to plant anything in Lin Ershuan’s shop. That was why Lin Yuan so readily agreed to let Lady Jin dispatch someone to search the place.
Second Oldest Jin and his spouse, though seasoned by many trials, regained their composure in an instant. Jin Lingling, however, was not able to keep her calm; her scheme seemingly uncovered, she frantically overturned her tea cup.
Jin Yuyu observed her sister’s demeanor, a slight smile creeping onto her lips, "What’s the matter, little sister? You seem to be very frightened. Don’t worry, the culprit who tried to harm our grandmother will be caught soon. Your sister won’t let the murderer succeed and target you again."
