Chapter 115 Exposed! Return the property to its original owner?
Lin Jiusi turned his head slightly and saw Lin Yangyang's face.

His hand shook, and the wooden sign missed the secret compartment and fell straight to the ground with a crisp sound.

At the same time, with a "bang", the door of the study opened.

Lin Congli's eyes were wide open, staring at Lin Jiusi.

Perhaps out of anger, his fingers kept shaking. "Evil creature, how dare you do such an immoral thing? How can you be worthy of your fourth uncle?"

"Uncle, no, it's not like that." Lin Jiusi stepped back repeatedly but couldn't break free from Lin Yangyang's hand.

He didn't know why his uncle appeared here. Weren't they in the main hall just now?
Lin Congli walked quickly into the study, looked at the wooden sign on the ground, and his lips trembled slightly.

Just now, Lin Zhiqing and others insisted that Lin Jiusi and Concubine Chun were having an affair, but Lin Congli didn't believe it from the bottom of his heart.

In his heart, although Lin Jiusi was a little naughty, he was the best among the children since childhood. Not only did he follow his grandfather to make money, but he also learned general affairs under Lin Cong.

Although Lin Congyan didn't like Lin Zhiqing, he was completely unreserved towards Lin Jiusi.

When the Qianjin Pavilion incident happened, Lin Congyan was sad in his heart even though he didn't say anything.

But it was such a person who actually did such a shameless thing. Lin Congli's disappointment was beyond words.

"You evil creature, why do you have your fourth uncle's token?" Lin Congli was a little excited, but he lowered his voice when he thought of such a scandal in his family.

Lin Jiusi was at a loss, looking at the people in front of him, not knowing how to refute.

His gaze fell on Lin Zhiqing, and all sorts of strange things came to his mind, and suddenly they all connected: "It's you, it's you, right?"

His eyes were bloodshot, as if he wanted to tear Lin Zhiqing apart and eat him.

Lin Shian frowned, stepped forward and protected Lin Zhiqing behind him: "You made the mistake first, don't blame others."

Lin Yangyang tugged at Lin Jiusi, causing him to stumble. "Why are you glaring at Sister Qing? You've done something so shameful and you have no remorse? How come you're even thicker-skinned than me?"

"You... don't touch me!" Lin Jiusi was scolded by everyone and restrained by Lin Yangyang's hand. The anger in his heart burst out:

"You two are ganging up on me! When has Lin Congyan ever treated me well?"

"Grandpa and I are the only relatives in the Lin family. You all treat us as outsiders. Why do you have the right to teach me a lesson?"

Hearing this, the one who reacted the most was Lin Congli.

His lips trembled and he couldn't utter a word after saying "you" for a long time.

Lin Shi comforted Lin Congli and said with great worry: "Uncle, you..."

Lin Zhiqing couldn't bear to watch this anymore, so he stepped past Lin Shian and stood in front of Lin Jiusi: "When did the Lin family treat you as outsiders?"

"They say you can't draw two Lin characters with one stroke, but even in Shengjing City, is there any royal family with two branches running side by side?"

The clan concept is very strong in Dasheng. Perhaps because interests are involved, even brothers have to settle accounts clearly.

In the case of the Lin family, if the old system was followed, the second grandfather's lineage would not have come to the Lin family at all.

When the Lin family was at its peak, they did not separate the second grandfather out.

Later, when the Lin family fell into poverty, Second Grandfather did not cut ties with them, and Lin Zhiqing had no idea what he was thinking.

But if my eldest uncle and fourth uncle did not regard my second grandfather's lineage as members of the Lin family, the financial power of the Lin family would not be handed over to them.

It is precisely because of this that Lin Zhiqing feels it is not worth it.

She now suspects that Lin Congyan's accident may be related to Lin Jiusi.

After hearing Lin Zhiqing's words, Lin Jiusi tugged at his hand again... but still couldn't pull it free. Lin Yangyang was like a hemp rope, holding on to him tightly.

He took a deep breath and pointed his finger at Lin Shian: "Why can he be an official in the Ministry of Personnel, but I can't?"

"Be an official. Do you want to be an official in the court?" Lin Congli's chest rose and fell slightly.

"Why not?" Lin Jiusi raised his voice and puffed out his chest.

Lin Congli shook his head in disbelief: "Foolish, truly foolish!"

Lin Shian helped Lin Congli sit on the chair, then he straightened up and walked towards Lin Jiusi:
"Be an official? You know what I've done in the Ministry of Personnel. That's clearly a joke."

"Let's put that aside. The reason I had the opportunity to join the Ministry of Personnel was because I wasn't a direct descendant of the Lin family, but a member of a side branch. That's why the higher-ups gave me a small opportunity."

"An opportunity to tease the Lin family and give them hope."

He seemed to have used up all his strength as he said these words.

He hadn't realized this before, but too many things have happened these days.

After he followed Lin Zhiqing out of the original framework, he realized that he was very stupid before. He was so stupid that he could not see the true intention of the court and willingly became a laughing stock in the eyes of others.

He never expected that this was what Lin Jiusi had always dreamed of.

After hearing what Lin Shian said, Lin Jiusi just thought he was trying to evade him. People always yearn for things that do not belong to them.

Seeing that he was unmoved, Lin Zhiqing's patience reached its limit. He stood in front of Lin Jiusi and showed a very gentle smile:

"Do you still remember what happened in Qianjin Pavilion?"

Qianjin Pavilion? Lin Jiusi was stunned, and his lost memories surged up like a tide, and he suddenly covered his face.

Lin Zhiqing smiled even brighter: "Just remember it. If you don't tell me everything from the beginning today, I will not show any mercy!"

Lin Zhiqing moved a chair and sat in front of Lin Jiusi.

Lin Jiusi swallowed and his heart sank to the bottom.

At the same time, footsteps were suddenly heard outside the door.

When the people in the room heard this, their faces instantly became serious.

No matter what, the fact that Lin Jiusi and Concubine Chun had an affair must never be spread.

Lin Zhiqing sent people to guard the surroundings in advance, but now it seems that something is wrong.

Before they could react, footsteps arrived at the door: "Zhiqing, Shi'an, are you in there?"

It’s Fourth Aunt’s voice!

Lin Zhiqing gave Lin Congli a look. After all, this was his fourth uncle's yard, and it was not appropriate for them, the younger generation, to show up.

Lin Congli understood, took a deep breath, and tried to adjust his voice to a normal state: "Something happened to Jiusi, and it is related to Congyan. I will take them away now to avoid disturbing you."

"Brother, is it related to Cong Yan? Is it a big deal?" There was some anxiety in Fourth Aunt's voice.

"It's okay, it's not a big deal." This was the first time Lin Congli lied with his eyes open.

After all, Lin Congli still had a certain authority in the hearts of everyone in the Lin family. Fourth Aunt asked a few more questions and then left with her people.

After everyone left, Aunt Mu stepped forward to apologize, saying that she failed to stop Fourth Aunt.

Lin Zhiqing lowered his head and thought for a while, but had no clue, so he turned his attention to Lin Jiusi again.
