Chapter 217 - Avenge Himself
The front hall immediately went silent, Lin Jing and his brothers silently inhaled a long breath before they turned to look at their father who was sitting beside their mother, if their father really tried to scold Su Wan - they will definitely be the first one to stop him! After all, it wasn't Su Wan's fault that the old Lin family was so greedy and unlikable! If anyone was at fault here it was them not their Wan Wan !
If they weren't tied down to that family because of their father, they too wouldn't have stayed in that house for so many years!
However, even after waiting for five minutes, their father didn't say anything instead he didn't even mutter an ' uff ' which made them feel a sense of foreboding - looks like their father will scold Su Wan really fiercely!

Everyone turned to look at him, their eyes filled with mystification as they all stared at Father Lin puzzled. What did their father / father in the law mean by good ?
No one understood but Father Lin who had seen the worst form of cruelty at the hands of his half brother felt as if a heavy rock that was finally pressing on his heart was finally lifted. If he were to say that he have treated Grandma Lin and Lin Ze just like his own family then no one would dare to say that he was exaggerating.
He had indeed treated the old Lin family as his own, after the death of his father despite having no blood relationship with Grandma Lin, he has treated the latter just like his own mother. As for Lin Ze, it wouldn't be an embellishment to say that he treated this half brother of his better than a blood brother. He was filial to Grandma Lin and loving and caring towards his half-sibling, in fact, the money for Lin Ze's bride price was also saved by him.
He had treated them like family no matter what, and it was because of his kindness that acted as his poison. He treated them like family but in reality, that bunch of people were nothing but ingrates!
Father Lin was afraid of ruining his reputation, he knew how important a good reputation was for a better future for his sons thus, even though his heart was full of grievances because of Grandma Lin's abuse , he still carried on the responsibility as the only man of the household .
But who would have thought that even after treating the old Lin family with all his heart , those green-eyed snakes would bite him in the back? The only reason Father Lin tolerated the old Lin family was because whatever Grandma Lin was she was after all his father's second wife and deserved his respect? .Nevertheless, he have paid back whatever he owed Grandma Lin when her own son pushed him in the sea because of his own selfishness !
Now he owed no one ! Especially the Old Lin family !
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe was wondering how could Grandma Lin allow his sons and wife to dress up so nicely and he was even more surprised at the thought that she actually let them buy a new house . Turns out that they have actually separated households ! The last worry in his heart finally vanished like thin smoke .
Previously , he was worried about his family - not a day went by when he worried about whether his sons were getting enough food to eat or was his wife still being led around the house like slave . Even when? he set on the journey to the Dong Tong village , he was worried that the second he turned up at the old Lin house , Grandma Lin will find trouble with him because of Lin Ze and his family will be shut out of the house together with him . He was worried about burdening his sons and wife , in fact he was even prepared to live in a cave together with his family . He was a great hunter though his skills were a little rusted? he was sure that he could hunt enough game to sustain his family . And there were all a lot of wild vegetables growing at the foot of the mountains, as long as he worked diligently , it was impossible to starve to death .
But now that their family had separated from he didn't need to worry about anything and there wouldn't be any misgivings either . And it looks like his sons were doing good , he knew how capable his sons were and without Grandma Lin that blood sucking leech , it wouldn't take long for his sons to live a better life ! With his and Lan'er 's teaching they will definitely be filial towards him , their father . And if he asked them to raise the Qi siblings as their own brother and sister there was no way , his sons would refuse .
However, as their father who have been missing for so many years he couldn't just rely on his sons , so it was better to start working in the farm fields that his sons have bought . Without the slavery contract no one would come searching for him and there was no need for him to return back to south either .
" Father , what's wrong ? Did something happen? Are - are you angry at us ? " asked Lin Yan when Father Lin didn't say anything for a very long time . He was afraid that their father said the word ' good ' in satire and nothing else .
" Its nothing " answered Father Lin taking the hot sweet ginger soup from Su Wan and drank a few mouthful . The ginger soup was lukewarm and immediately warmed up his insides , he really wanted to tell his sons about what Lin Ze did to him but after careful consideration he stopped himself . He didn't have any evidence to prove that Lin Ze pushed him into the sea and if he told his sons that their uncle was the one behind their father's ' sudden death ' , then it was highly possible that they might do something ' irreversible ' in their anger and rage .
And honestly , he was too tired to deal with the Old Lin family . And this was his own feud , there was no need for his sons to avenge him - since it was his own mistake that made him suffer for so long then it was only right if he avenged? himself but he? currently he was too weak. Let him regain his strength and then - heh , Father Lin sneered inwardly … he would definitely make Lin Ze regret the day he laid his hands on him !
[ He is the father of these dark horses so of course he isn't weak either , his revenge will be fun to read and write ]
