"What do you mean ’your sister’? We haven’t even come knocking yet, and you better hand over my second elder brother immediately. It must have been your darling sister who lured away my brother, and even instigated him to steal all the money from our home!" As soon as Zhang Baonni heard Lin Aiguo’s words, combined with what her mother had said earlier and the empty room of her second brother, she instantly concluded that Lin Aimei had a significant role in it!

After all, how could a grown man really think of fleeing home with money and remember to take clothing and quilts with him? Her brother Zhang Dongliang was just a big child who only knew how to eat, drink, and have fun; how could he possibly know that out in the world, it’s not always possible to buy clothes and quilts with money!

Having reached a conclusion, Zhang Baonni immediately turned the tables and hit back, pointing at Mrs. Lin who had just come in and screaming, "Let’s go, Mom, we need to report this to the authorities, saying that Lin Aimei learned about the large sum of money we had at home and she incited my brother to steal the household silver and run away!"

"What?!" Mrs. Lin, upon hearing Zhang Baonni’s words, was startled and asked back in shock. freёwebnovel.com

"That’s right. Just now, my mom checked where the silver was kept. The 300 big silver that we had just received yesterday are gone, and so are the wedding clothes and quilts prepared for my younger brother. If it weren’t for your Lin Aimei’s instigation, with my brother’s brains, how could he have thought that outside home, supplies are hard to come by and that these life necessities need to be prepared?!"

Zhang Yunni was not dumb either. Hearing her elder sister’s words, she quickly pieced together the cause and effect of the incident. She thought of the thirty big silver coins her mother promised to give her that were now gone, and felt a wave of discomfort. She immediately joined her elder sister in the sarcastic retaliation.

Lin Aiguo, seeing the reaction of the Zhang Family’s mother and daughters, immediately followed the direction they had come from earlier, rushing over to check, and indeed saw an empty new room. Not only were there no new wedding clothes or quilts, there were not even any old clothes to be seen!

Mrs. Lin, following her son to inspect, was also disbelieving. After looking over, she began to feel a sense of panic.

"You see your precious sister, eloping with the sole son of our family, and we haven’t even come to your door about it, yet you have the audacity to make a scene at our house?"

"Who’s lured whom is not yet decided!" Lin Aiguo, hearing what Zhang Yunni said, furrowed his brows, knowing that if indeed those 300 big silver coins were gone, it must have been his sister who incited it.

"Fine, Lin family, you better return the big silver and my son!" Lin Zhaodi, originally panicked about the disappearance of the silver and her son, reacted upon hearing her daughters’ words, charged towards Mrs. Lin screaming and shouting, and the two elderly women, not yielding to each other, started grappling.

Lin Zhaodi and Mrs. Lin were both concerned about saving face and weren’t experts in fighting, merely pulling at each other’s hair and clothes and seldom using pinching.

Lin Aiguo, seeing his own mother fighting with someone, had no interest in helping out since the other party was an elderly woman. Noticing that Zhang Yunni and Zhang Baonni seemed like they wanted to help, his eyes lit up as he stepped forward. If they dared to help Lin Zhaodi, he wouldn’t hesitate to rush in and take advantage!

It was really Lin Aiguo’s lecherous gaze, too direct for comfort. Being stared at with such a wolfish eye by him, the Zhang sisters, knowing his notorious reputation, didn’t dare to move any closer.

Fortunately, Lin Zhaodi and Mrs. Lin weren’t truly going all out. Both belonged to the Lin House, and even though there were no blood relations between them, they were still of the same surname and held back their full force.

"Aunt Zhi Guo, are you there?"

Just when everyone was at a standoff, a young man shouted from outside the courtyard!
