589 Confrontation in Court

Before they could launch the complaint, the Lin family father and son had already been charged with a bunch of crimes and were covered in injuries.

The Lin family, especially the seriously injured Lin Laosan, had lost half of their lives after being hit thirty times. Fortunately, they had been working in the fields all year round and were strong. Otherwise, they might not even be able to return to the Lin family Village alive.

However, after thirty hits, his butt was already swollen, and there was blood oozing out. It was a ghastly sight, but Lin Laosan endured it. His face was pale, and cold sweat dripped from his forehead, but he didn’t faint.

Otherwise, not only would he suffer a great crime, but he would also not get anything. How could he be satisfied?

As for Lin Sanniu, he was obviously young and strong, and his body was in better shape than Lin Laosan’s.

After the previous ten beatings, there were now twenty more beatings. In addition to his pale face, his forehead was also covered in a cold sweat. However, he gritted his teeth and did not let himself shout in the court.

The punishment that should have been given to the two parties involved had already been given.

However, the case to sue for unfilial piety had to continue.

County Magistrate Zhou slammed the gavel on the table and said to Lin yuelan in a serious tone, ” Lin yuelan, regardless of whether you and Lin Sanniu have severed your father-daughter relationship in the past, as long as your parents need you, you must show your filial piety.

“The Longyan Kingdom ruled the world with ‘filial piety’.

“No matter how wrong your parents were, no matter how big a mistake they made, as children, you should not speak of your parents ‘mistakes. All children in the world had to repay the kindness of their parents for raising them.

“The Lin family Village’s Lin Sanniu is now suing his daughter, Lin yuelan, for being unfilial. This official is hearing this case in accordance with the laws of this country.

“The plaintiff, Lin Sanniu, is the Father, and the defendant, Lin yuelan, is the daughter.” County Magistrate Zhou tried the case in a serious manner.

Then, he slammed the gavel once more and shouted at Lin Sanniu, ” Lin Sanniu, why are you suing your eldest daughter, Lin yuelan, who you cut off three years ago?”

After being flogged 30 times, Lin Sanniu’s face was pale, and he had no strength left in his body. When he got up and knelt down again, he lay on the ground. He raised his head slightly and said in a nervous, scared, and old-fashioned manner, “Master, I feel deeply guilty for what I did three years ago. I had originally planned to have no contact with her other than to silently care for her.

“In these three years, although I didn’t care about my elder daughter, my wife cried day and night after my elder daughter was separated. Her body collapsed day by day, until a few days ago, she was so seriously ill that she couldn’t get out of bed.

“It was just that my family had no money and could not hire a doctor to buy medicine for his wife.

“On the contrary, the life of the eldest daughter, Lin yuelan, was getting better and better. She built a big land and also spent a lot of money to buy hundreds of acres of land.

“My wife is dying, but my daughter is thriving.

“In order to treat my wife’s illness so that she wouldn’t be tortured by her illness, I made up my mind and decided to ask my elder daughter to give me some money.

“but, ” his pale face showed an expression of hatred as he said angrily, ” this unfilial daughter actually used the incident three years ago as an excuse. What’s more absurd is that she actually said that we owed her money because we made her work when she was young. She said that the Lin family owed her and didn’t give her a single cent. She even called all the elders of the Lin family by their names.

“Now, this woman is rich and arrogant, but the Lin family has fallen on hard times. We simply can’t argue with the rich and powerful Lin yuelan.”

In front of everyone, Lin Sanniu lied about what had happened back then to make himself look pitiful. He blamed everything on Lin Yuelan.

He was clever because other than Chen Xiaoqing’s illness, everything else Lin Sanniu said was true.

However, the meaning was completely different.

Therefore, to everyone’s ears, Lin Sanniu didn’t do anything that bad. He didn’t pressure his daughter for money. It was because his wife was terminally ill and needed money for medical treatment.

However, as their daughter, when she saw that her mother’s condition had worsened and she was bedridden, she actually rejected her father’s request to help treat her mother.
