After the cannon fodder father and daughter married into the family, the whole family regretted it

"I taught you propriety, righteousness, integrity and shame, but have you learned all of it?"

Master Chen is so disappointed with his son that he thinks he can do something better than what he wants. Why does he resort to such evil ways?

If you do something like this in the Lin Mansion, everything will be over in the future!

Fang Jin was already confused, but this slap actually brought him back to his senses.

In this situation, it was impossible for him to deny it. He looked at Qin Yan, unwilling to let his reputation be ruined.

"Sir, everyone, I was wrong about this matter, but I just wanted to embarrass him!"

Qin Yan raised his eyebrows slightly in the wheelchair, knowing that his "grand uncle" was about to start acting again and talk nonsense.

"You may not know this, but Fang was born in the countryside. My parents are just ordinary farmers with three children. They raised us three brothers by working day and night."

"Now that my parents are old and can no longer work, my second and third brothers have been adopted out one after another, severing ties with the family and never caring for them again!"

He spoke with such indignation that those present who were unaware of the situation were stunned.

"They were disloyal and unfilial, but my mother was sick and still worried about my two younger brothers. I'm the eldest son in the family, and I was really angry. Plus, I have the responsibility to teach my younger brothers, so I lost my mind and resorted to some crooked tactics. But I didn't intend to kill anyone."

Fang Jin lowered his head, looking sad, and wiped his eyes. "It's because of my incompetence as the eldest brother that I failed to befriend my younger brother. That's why I caused such a disgrace today. I apologize once again to Mr. Lin San."

He bowed deeply, as if he was truly repentant.

After hearing these few words, those who didn't know would think that someone was forcing him to poison. Qin Yan has always been calm and indifferent, so he was a little disgusted by his behavior.

The students looked at each other in bewilderment.

They originally thought it was related to the poetry club, but why does it sound like a family matter? They don't know the inside story, so it's hard to say.

Qin Yan saw someone looking at him and spoke calmly.

"Uncle, I underestimated you. In such a solemn occasion, you easily twisted right and wrong. Do you think that just because the capital is far away, everyone will believe your one-sided story? If you say this back in the village, everyone in the village will look down on you!"

Qin Yan was a man who would not tolerate any injustice, so he asked in a clear and logical manner.

"Grandpa Fang, if it's really as good as you say, then why did my father and second uncle get adopted out? Could it be that they don't want to live a good life?"

"The Fang family sucked the blood of their two youngest sons just to support their eldest uncle's education. They had no daughters to sell, so they forced my father to marry into the family. When you took the betrothal gift, you didn't even think about trying to keep my father!"

"As for my second uncle, that goes without saying. You almost sold him to the mines. If my father hadn't found him in the middle of the night, you would have drugged him and sent him away. I'm afraid we don't know whether he's alive or dead!"

"You keep saying that my father and second uncle are unfilial. What do you mean by unfilial? Do you mean that my parents should sell their son to support your so-called brother to study?"

"It's the eldest uncle who has received the family's kindness for many years, but now he openly poisons the second uncle. He is so cruel and vicious that it chills people's hearts."

As soon as Qin Yan said this, everyone immediately had a scale in their hearts, and their thoughts immediately changed.

We are all scholars, and everyone knows that studying is not easy, especially for people like Qin Yan and Fang Jin, who are supported by their entire family. There are very few of them.

What Qin Yan said is more true.

"Qin Yan, you are young and don't know some things. Fang Tong married into the family because he was lazy and wanted to live off his wife. Did his family ever force him?" Fang Jin would certainly not admit it.

Back then, he just wanted Fang Nanzhi to marry in his place.

Both sides had their say, but no one present was a fool, so they naturally had their own judgment.

Some people who understood the situation exchanged glances in private, looking at Qin Yan thoughtfully.

Qin Yan knew that even if the matter became like this, it would be difficult to report it to the police.

Not only is he related to Fang Jin, but the person who was poisoned this time was actually his second uncle, who was originally a brother of Fang Jin.

Even though they both knew it in their hearts, Fang Jin drugged him largely out of jealousy of him.

But, to outsiders, this seems more like a family matter.

As long as Fang Jin insists on this, the government will have no way to confirm it.

To take a step back, even if the government took action and he went to the yamen with them, he might not become famous by then.

He looked to the other side of the crowd and saw that the teachers had already arrived.

Sure enough, when Master Zheng saw him looking over, he shook his head at him calmly.

I'm afraid of the consequences, so I definitely can't go to this government office.

"Master Lin, the poisoning has been investigated. After all, it happened in the other courtyard. Although I am the victim, I cannot take over the responsibility. I still ask for your help in handling the matter."

Qin Yan didn't want to continue the argument, so he took a step back on the surface, but actually he was secretly holding a grudge.

Lin Bosheng didn't know what he was thinking. He felt that Qin Yan was to his liking and he didn't dislike anything he said or did.

He was not the kind of person who would cover up the poisoning. He had conducted a high-profile investigation before in order to catch the person behind it, but after the person was caught, he took a step back and handed it over to him for disposal. If he really had to go to the government office, it would not do any good to the Lin family.

Of course, it is not good for Qin Yan either. How can a younger generation punish an elder?

"If that's the case, this Fang guy is actually trying to poison people at the poetry gathering. In my opinion, he doesn't act like a scholar at all, and he doesn't even take our Lin Mansion seriously. So, we don't welcome him!"

"Someone, throw him out of the courtyard!"

The servants received the young master's order and dragged the man out and threw him away. Fang Jin shouted that he wanted to leave, but no one listened.

After everyone left, the atmosphere in the courtyard returned to normal.

The students dispersed in groups of three or four to talk about poetry and drink, but the topic always kept coming up with Qin Yan.

What happened today fully demonstrates that if you are not envied by others, you are a mediocre person.

Qin Yan went to the teachers and apologized to everyone for disturbing them and making the teachers laugh at him.

"Oh, it's okay. It's not your fault. By the way, is your second uncle okay?"

Qin Yan quickly bowed and said, "Thank you for your concern, Master. Master Lin asked the doctor to come just in time. The poison has already been cured. My second uncle is resting in the guest room right now."

After several teachers expressed their concern, Master Zheng found an opportunity to call him aside and told him that although he had let the tiger go back to the mountains this time, he should be more careful with Fang Jin in the future, saying that Fang Jin did not seem like someone who would give up easily.

"Don't worry, sir. I know this isn't the first time he's done this."

Only then did Master Zheng realize that Fang Jin had actually tried to frame Qin Yan during his previous exam.

Master Zheng was a little angry. If cheating in the imperial examination was confirmed, it would ruin someone's future.

Qin Yan was afraid that the gentleman would be angry, so he quickly changed the subject and talked about what happened when he was called away by Lord Lin just now.
