Reborn: Nothing to Regret

Chapter 2

When this voice sounded out, the expressions of all the surrounding servants immediately changed. The eight servants standing beside the brick bed did not dare to move again. Lin Xiao's father Lin Chongshan furrowed his brows and turned his gaze towards the person who had spoken.

Lin Xiao's gaze also turned towards the incoming person. He saw a group of people walking over from the direction of the entrance of the cemetery. Other than the leader, the rest of them were all dressed like servants.

The three leaders were all middle-aged. One was slightly fat, one was skinny, and the other was a little short. The looks of the three people were somewhat similar to that of Lin Chongshan.

The one who spoke was the middle-aged fat man on the left. At this moment, he looked at Lin Chongshan with a fake smile, as if he was waiting for his response.

Lin Xiao's gaze grew colder and colder. Next to him, Lin Youruo muttered in a low voice: "It's these bad guys again. A few days ago, they were still making things difficult for Daddy..."

Lin Chongshan frowned and looked at the people in front and the servants behind him. His eyes were cold, and he said in a deep voice, "What do you mean, Third Brother? Zhao Rong is the daughter-in-law of the Lin family. How could she be an outsider? How could she not enter the Lin family's cemetery?"

The smile on the fat middle-aged man's face became more and more obvious, and there was a hint of sarcasm and pride in it. "Oh? Since you said that she is the daughter-in-law of the Lin family, I dare to ask where is the witness of the marriage contract, where is the bloodline contract, and where is the birth of the Qin family's golden book?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Chongshan's brows furrowed even more, and his gaze became completely cold. He looked at the three people in front of him and said, "My wife is not the daughter-in-law of the Lin family, is she? Today is the day of the burial of my son. Please don't stop me on purpose!"

The people in front of him didn't have good intentions, directly stopping his wife from being buried, making Lin Chongshan angry. His tone was no longer polite, not even his older brother willing to be called again.

The fat man noticed the anger in Lin Chongshan's words and laughed. The skinny man in the middle of the three said slowly,

"Fourth brother, Qin Zhaorong didn't marry into our Lin family's house openly. Not to mention that she couldn't get the family record, this matter almost made our family become a laughing stock in Canghe County! Now you want her to be buried in our Lin family's cemetery. How can you do that?"

When Lin Chongshan heard this and was about to argue, the short, shifty-looking man next to him also spoke.

"Fourth Brother, as the sister-in-law, it's not reasonable to bury her in the Lin family's cemetery. Why don't you send her body back to the Qin family? The Qin family is a big family, so I don't think they can't tolerate the next one..."

"Bullsh*t!" Lin Chongshan, who was extremely talented, finally became furious when he heard these words and interrupted him with a shout.

"Send Zhao Rong's body back to the Qin Family? How can you think of that! Zhao Rong treats you very well in daily life. In the Lin Family, she always abides by the rules and never goes against etiquette. How can you be so cruel!"

Hearing Lin Chongshan's angry voice, the smile on the fat man's face disappeared. A trace of embarrassment appeared on the faces of several people opposite him. The skinny middle-aged man said again,

"But fourth brother, you buried Zhao Rong in the Lin family's cemetery..."

When Lin Xiao saw this scene, his eyes were as cold as a ten-thousand-year-old ice plain.

He was well aware of the reason why they came to prevent his mother from being buried.

His father, Lin Chongshan, and his mother, Qin Zhaorong, had caused quite a stir in Canghe County back then, so he naturally knew a lot.

His father was the strongest genius in the Lin Family in a hundred years and was also the top genius in Canghe County. He reached the sixth level of the first branch at the age of 25!

With such aptitude, it would be easy for him to open the Secret Chamber of the Vital Qi. Even if he opened the third vein in the future, there would be a glimmer of hope for him to open the Secret Chamber of the Spirit. He could be regarded as a dragon among men, and he was also a famous young hero in the entire Riverside Commandery.

During one of his travels, he met Qin Zhaorong, the apple of the Qin Family's eye. They fell in love with each other and traveled together. As a result, Qin Zhaorong got pregnant a year later.

In a panic, the two returned to the Lin Family to reveal the matter. Lin Xiao's grandfather, Lin Aotian, the head of the Lin Family, personally went to the Qin's Mansion of the county city of Linjiang to propose marriage with generous gifts.

However, the Qin Family was a well-known family that had been passed down for hundreds of years. They valued rules and etiquette the most. If the Lin Family and the Qin Family were equal, it would not be a big deal. After all, Lin Chongshan was also a handsome man. It was nothing more than a scandal.

But how could the Qin family think highly of a small overlord of Canghe County? Not only did they immediately chase Lin Aotian and Lin Chongshan out, but they also wanted to get rid of the fetus in Qin Zhaorong's belly and imprison him.

Of course, Qin Zhaorong refused to do so and threatened him with his life. The furious Qin Family spared Lin Xiao's life, but he drove Qin Zhaorong out of his house and removed her from the family history. He even abolished Lin Chongshan's first vein and broke Qin Zhaorong's hundred veins as punishment.

If it weren't for that, how could Lin Chongshan, the top genius in Canghe County, not be able to improve his cultivation for more than a decade and be bullied by his later cousin?

If it wasn't for this, how could Lin Xiao's mother, Qin Zhaorong, be so weak from then on and be plagued with all sorts of diseases? How could she let go of him at such a young age?

After learning about these matters, Lin Xiao naturally hated the aloof and merciless Qin Family to the core.

Therefore, even when he was desperate in his previous life, he had never thought of going to his nominal grandfather's house to seek refuge. Even with the power of the Qin family, it was easy to keep a small Lin family.

At this moment, Lin Xiao was naturally enraged by the fact that these uncles had stopped him from burying his mother.

His mother, Qin Zhaorong, didn't have a proper reputation, which would affect the reputation of the Lin family. However, the biggest reason was probably due to their jealousy and hatred of his father, Lin Chongshan.

At that time, Lin Chongshan was a genius born in the Lin Family for a hundred years. How high-spirited he was!

These uncles had been suppressed by him for so many years. In the face of the favor, comparison, and rumors of outsiders from their families, it was impossible for them to have no resentment in their hearts.

Furthermore, ever since that incident back then, even though the Qin Family did not openly deal with the Lin Family, they were still secretly suppressing them, causing the Lin Family's power to decline over the years.

Naturally, many people in the Lin Family bore a grudge against them. They blamed it all on their father, Lin Chongshan, and their mother, Qin Zhaorong.

As these thoughts swirled in Lin Xiao's mind, his gaze turned increasingly cold and sharp.

At this moment, the quarrel between Lin Chongshan and the others became more and more intense.

"Fourth brother, I don't care what you're up to. Anyway, Qin Zhaorong can't be buried in our Lin family's cemetery!"

"Yes, you either send her back to the Qin Family or send her out of my Lin family's cemetery!"

A fierce glint flashed across Lin Chongshan's eyes, just like a sharp blade. Just as he was about to say something, Lin Xiao, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly stepped forward and said,

"Uncles, you've been trying to prevent my mother from being buried. I have a question in my heart. May I ask if you can answer it for me?"

Upon seeing this scene, everyone was shocked. Behind Lin Xiao, Lin Youruo's eyes were wide open as she watched her elder brother's unexpected actions.

Lin Chongshan frowned and said subconsciously, "Xiao'er, why are you..."

Lin Xiao waved his hand, with a faint smile on his face. "Father, don't blame me. I just want you to answer a question for me."

Looking at Lin Xiao's expression and the trace of confidence in his eyes, Lin Chongshan seemed to have thought of something. After a moment of silence, he did not stop him.

"Well, it doesn't matter if you ask."

The few people on the opposite side were obviously shocked. They did not expect that Lin Xiao, who had been silent for a long time, would stand out at this time.

They looked at each other and opened their mouths slightly, but no sound came out. Obviously, they were communicating with each other through Secret Voice-sending.

After two breaths, they reached an agreement. The expression on their faces softened, and the skinny middle-aged man in the middle said,

"Since Xiaoqi wants to ask us a few questions, as elders, we certainly won't refuse. If you have anything to ask, just say it."
