Chapter 290: Showdown

There was chaos in the courtyard, sticks and fists danced together, and blood screamed and flew in unison.

In terms of fighting, who is the opponent of this gang of ruffians on the street. Begging for food on the street, fighting and brawling are as simple as commonplace, and the streets of Hangzhou are their battlefield. And these people are very bad when they fight, and what they are looking for is to defeat the enemy with one move. And these people are very measured, after all, in a street fight, bleeding and fractures are nothing, if someone dies, then they can't eat and walk around. So in the long-term actual combat, these guys have summed up a set of effective and non-lethal plays.

On the other hand, these people brought by Lin Song and Lin Run, where are the twenty shopkeepers who are the material for fighting? When I saw the scene of the fight, my legs were already weak. The twenty or thirty Lin family's guards and servants who came with them were not specially hired to fight. The little guys are running errands and serving people, although they have the strength to handle it, but when it comes to fighting, they are still novices. More than a dozen nurses have some skills, but unfortunately this is not a life-and-death battle with a sword and a sword, and it is impossible for them to come here with weapons, and they only rely on fists and sticks.

Lin Song and Lin Run didn't expect this to happen today, bringing people here was just to scare and scare Lin Jue, they thought that they didn't need to do anything at all, Lin Jue was afraid that he had already obediently admitted his mistake. Therefore, they didn't call a few practitioners of the Lin family who were good at fists and feet and were responsible for the safety of the head of the family on weekdays. Of course, I was also afraid that if I called these few, it would cause Lin Boyong's suspicion to ruin things.

Because of this, this brawl seems to be fierce, but in fact, from the moment the security team started, it was already a one-sided beating. The ruffians of the security team were bleeding from their fists to the flesh and sticks, and a group of shopkeepers and the guards were crying wolves. Lin Song and Lin Run were still shouting at first, but soon they realized that the momentum was not right. Their own people fell like gourds on the ground, and they were no match for them at all. When Lin Jue rushed in front of them with a wooden stick and Lin Hu in hand, looking at the bloody wooden stick that was dyed red, Lin Song and Lin Run screamed in fright, squatting on the ground with their heads in their hands, and almost peed their pants in fright.

However, Lin Jue's stick did not fall on them, and when Lin Run dared to peek through the crack in his palm, he found that Lin Jue and Lin Hu had bypassed the two of them, waving their sticks and beating them indiscriminately on the bodies of several shopkeepers behind them. Lin Song and Lin Run breathed a long sigh of relief, and their bodies were drenched with sweat.

Of course, Lin Jue is measured, he will not move Lin Song Lin Run's finger, once these two people are moved, things will take a turn for the worse. Although the shopkeepers are beaten, the guards in the nursing home are beaten, those who are in charge of the shopkeepers are the people who have been dismissed, and they are accused of trespassing on private houses, and the guards in the nursing home are disobeying the orders of the master to help outsiders, and there are sufficient reasons to beat.

After the meal, there were only people standing in the courtyard on Lin Jue's side, and the dozens of people on the ground who were moaning and rolling were a group of dismissed shopkeepers and a group of Lin family's guards and servants. They all had blue noses and swollen faces, some had blood on their heads, and some had blood from their eyes, mouths and noses, and they looked extremely miserable. But they are all jumping around, their hands are not broken or their legs are broken, and all the parts of their bodies are missing, which is the cleverness of this group of people in the security team. On the contrary, it was Lin Jue and Lin Hu who were the heaviest, although they were holding pine sticks, and they couldn't kill people. But his uncle and nephew opened eight or nine scoops, and those who were the ones whose heads were broken by Lin Jue and Lin Hu were the most seriously injured.

When Lin Boyong and Lin Bonian got the news and rushed to the compound of the Lin family's No. 1 dock ship company out of breath, the brawl had already ended. When Lin Boyong and Lin Bonian stepped into the courtyard, they saw a group of people who were tied up and dejected. And Lin Jue was sitting cross-legged under the shade of the tree drinking tea, and dozens of big men beside him were cross-legged like fierce men, and some were holding bloodstained sticks in their hands.

Lin Jue saw Lin Boyong and Lin Bonian coming in panting, put down the teacup and stood up. Without waiting for him to speak first, Lin Song and Lin Run, who were squatting on the ground holding their heads, let out a terrible wail at the same time, and rushed over with a rolling belt.

"Daddy, second uncle, you are here, you have to call the shots for us. Lin Jue is going to rebel, my Lin family is not going up or down, the three-room concubine is going to turn the sky upside down, and he is going to kill people. ”

"Yes, Daddy, Second Uncle, if you are one step late, we will be beaten to death by him. Does my Lin family still have family law? Is there still a royal law in the Great Zhou Dynasty? Daddy and second uncle, you have to call the shots for us. ”

Lin Song and Lin Run howled like pigs, rushed up and hugged Lin Boyong's legs one by one, crying tears. A group of dismissed shopkeepers who were beaten with blue noses and swollen faces also cried, and the scene suddenly became a mess.

Lin Boyong's face was pale, and he was annoyed when he saw his two sons crying and grabbing the ground, and shouted in a deep voice: "Get up for me, what kind of system will it be?" ”

Lin Song and Lin Run hurriedly stopped their grief and slowly got up from the ground. The two of them had messy hair, their faces were covered with dust and blood, and their bodies were dirty like beggars.

"Can anyone tell me what's going on?" Lin Boyong's face turned pale and asked in a deep voice.

"Sanfang Lin Gongzi has beaten us like this, family master, you have to call the shots for us."

"The head of the family, we are loyal to the Lin family, this Lin Jue just treated us like this on the first day of his appointment, the head of the family, you give a commentary, you give justice to the host."

A group of shopkeepers began to make loud noises.

Lin Boyong frowned and listened to these gossip, and soon he basically figured out a simple fact. These were all done by Lin Jue, and it was Lin Jue who beat these shopkeepers and scared Lin Song and Lin Run into such appearances. The anger in Lin Boyong's heart rose, and no matter how good he was, he couldn't accept the facts in front of him.

Lin Jue walked over slowly, came to Lin Boyong and Lin Bonian and bowed his hands, and said in a deep voice: "My nephew has seen the second uncle of the family. ”

Lin Boyong coldly pointed to the people in front of him: "Lin Jue, what's going on, are all what they said true?" Did you do all this? ”

Lin Jue glanced back at his great achievements, nodded and said, "It was my nephew who ordered it." ”

Lin Boyong looked at Lin Jue with a nonchalant look, and when he saw the blood stains on the cuffs that Lin Jue was holding, and the blood stains on his hands that had not been washed, the anger in his heart was difficult to contain. "What have you done?" I made you the chief steward, and that's how you were the chief steward? These people are all the treasurers of my Lin family, how dare you beat them like this? Lin Song Lin Run is your brother, you even dare to beat them, do you still know what it means to be humble and humble? Are you going to rebel? ”

Lin Jue frowned and said, "Family Master, listen to me." ”

"I don't listen, the facts are there, what is there to say? Lin Jue, Lin Jue, the old man thought you were a manufacturable material, although you were a three-room concubine, but I didn't dislike you. Let you be the steward and manage the business of the family, and you know how much I expect from you. Is this what you give me in return? It seems that the old man is still too natural, you are born with rebellious scales, you can't be disciplined, and maybe you shouldn't be too hopeful. Lin Boyong reprimanded angrily.

Lin Bonian whispered beside him: "Big brother, you have to explain the reason to him." ”

"What's there to explain? It's all you, and if you hadn't said that he was up to the task, I wouldn't have agreed to let him take over as the chief steward temporarily. But look, what did he do? Second brother, you have been in the capital for so many years, but you haven't experienced much. And those whom you are optimistic do, do these things. In broad daylight, beating the shopkeeper and beating the son of the long house in the compound of my Lin family's boat company, do you still want to defend him? Lin Boyong rebuked unceremoniously.

Lin Bonian was speechless for a while, and bowed his head with a rather ashamed expression: "Yes, yes, the eldest brother taught me a lesson." ”

Lin Boyong turned his head and shouted at Lin Jue: "Don't you want to let people loosen their ties? Give them an apology? What are you still doing? ”

Lin Jue frowned and was silent.

Lin Boyong said angrily: "Why, don't you even dare to listen to my words?" Are you really going to turn the other way around? ”

Lin Jue sighed lightly and said in a deep voice: "Master of the family, forgive my nephew for being difficult to obey." ”

"What?" Lin Boyong's body shook angrily, and his face turned pale. Everyone around was also stunned, Lin Jue actually dared to confront the head of the family in person, I was afraid that it was really going to turn the sky upside down.

"Lin Jue, Hugh is rude." Lin Bonian shouted.

Lin Jue shook his head and said: "Second uncle, I'm not rude, I can't let go of these people, and it's even more impossible to apologize." Not only will I not loosen their bonds, but I will also send them to the government office for questioning. ”

"What? Do you still want to make trouble in the yamen, and you still think this matter is not big enough? Lin Boyong shouted angrily.

Lin Jue said: "Family master, you came in and reprimanded me indiscriminately, and I didn't even have a chance to speak." Have you ever asked me why I did it to them, to tie them up and send them to the officials? ”

"It's true. Am I blind? These people are dying of blood from your blows, what else do you have to say? Lin Boyong shouted.

Lin Jue sighed and said, "There is really nothing to say, even so, why did the head of the family say anything last night, regardless of the main family or the concubine." In the heart of the head of the family, the main family is the main family, the outer room is the outer room, the descendant is the descendant, and the concubine is the concubine. Why say it so high-sounding. You want me to be the chief steward, but you are extremely reluctant in your heart, so why force yourself? Don't you feel tired when the head of the family is different? ”

There was silence in the courtyard for a few breaths, and the air seemed to freeze. Lin Jue's words were already extremely disrespectful, and saying that the head of the family was inconsistent in front of the head of the family was equivalent to pointing at his nose and scolding. Everyone watched with their mouths wide open in astonishment, not knowing what would happen next. Lin Jue is such a demon, I am afraid that he will not be able to gain a foothold in the Lin family.

Lin Boyong almost didn't come up in one breath, his face was terrifyingly pale. The gray beard trembled, the body trembled, and the whole person staggered and almost fell. Huang Changqing, who was beside him, hurriedly supported Lin Boyong, his eyes stared at Lin Jue fiercely, eager to eat Lin Jue.

"Okay, okay, my Lin family has a talent, a talent who dares to point at the old man's nose and scold the old man. Hehe, after the third room, the third brother gave birth to a good son! Amazing, amazing. Lin Boyong sneered and shook his head.
