Lin Xia had a car accident on the way to a blind date and unexpectedly transmigrated into a hear...
Chapter 54 Handle
"This... isn't everything okay?" Zhao Xiangdong looked at Lin Xue and saw that she was sitting there peacefully, and nothing serious seemed to have happened.
"Don't you know how many days my sister has been in the hospital? Then do you know that your mother doesn't give my sister food? And she even gives her all kinds of medicine?" Lin Xia asked directly, not knowing whether he knew about it.
"What do you mean by messy medicine? That's medicine for giving birth to a boy!" Zhao Xiangdong refused to admit that it was a harmful medicine.
Lin Xia looked at Lin Xue, "Where's the doctor's diagnosis?"
Mother Lin seemed to come back to her senses, and hurried into the house and took out a piece of paper.
Lin Xia took the paper and threw it at Zhao Xiangdong's face. With a hint of sarcasm in her expression, she said sternly, "Do you know how to read? Take a good look at it yourself."
Zhao Xiangdong looked at the paper in his hand with suspicion and saw that the diagnosis results showed signs of miscarriage and that the patient was severely malnourished.
Lin Xia's eyes were filled with disdain. "If you still don't believe it, go to the hospital and ask. The hospital should still have records."
Zhao Xiangdong seemed unable to believe it, and kept muttering, "My mother said she herself wouldn't eat it." There was a hint of disbelief in his expression, as if he just realized that he had been deceived.
"I...I'll go back and ask her." Zhao Xiangdong seemed frightened by the diagnosis. When he got home, he heard his mother lying at home and unable to get up. When he asked, he found out that his brother-in-law had come to their house.
Not only did he take his wife away, he also beat up his mother. His mother cried and said that Lin Xue disliked her for not serving her well, so their family took her back. He was furious when he heard this and just wanted to come to the Lin family to reason.
As for the medicine, his mother secretly told him that she had spent a lot of money to ask a master to get it, and it could make the baby in her belly a boy.
He really wanted to have a son, so he didn't have any doubt or objection to what his mother said. After all, his mother had always given birth to sons.
Zhao Xiangdong left, took the paper and went back to question Zhao's mother.
Lin Xia felt that she could definitely fool that crazy woman, and this was not a solution.
There was no way Zhao Xiangdong would let her go on his own initiative, so he could only use external force.
Thinking about the medicine powder, Lin Xia had a hunch that there was something fishy going on.
"Sister, what did that crazy woman say when she gave you a drink?" Lin Xia looked at Lin Xue, wondering if she still remembered the details at the time.
"It seems...it seems like he said he begged for it, and said he spent a lot of money or something like that, so why are you hungry?" Lin Xue recalled, but it has been a long time and he can't remember the exact words clearly.
When Lin Xia heard this, she understood what was going on. There are many such feudal superstitions in later generations. They are all deceptive means, and in the end the pregnant women are the ones who suffer.
It’s okay. Lin Xia thought for a moment, who should I ask to investigate this matter?
Mother Lin looked tired and anxious.
Looking at the look on her son-in-law's face today, she knew that he still believed in Zhao's mother. How could she feel at ease letting her daughter return to the Zhao family?
In fact, Lin Xia looked down on Zhao Xiangdong in her heart. She knew from the few words just now that he was a man without his own opinion. After seeing the diagnosis just now, he didn't ask about Lin Xue at all, but just made excuses for Zhao's mother.
Lin Xue's life will probably be difficult in the future. If she really gives birth to a boy, it will be okay. But if she gives birth to a girl, both mother and daughter will suffer in the end.
But divorce is not a good thing in this era. She grew up accepting the concepts of later generations. If she and Lu Yuxiu can't get along in the end, she is afraid of the criticism after the divorce.
But Lin Xue is afraid that it won’t work, and she doesn’t know whether the Lin family can accept it.
"Sister, you should have a good rest. Our family is here, so don't worry." Lin Xia persuaded Lin Xue. She had just come back to recuperate for two days, so it would be better for her to lie down in bed and rest.
After seeing Lin Xue enter the room, Lin Xia sat down and said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid Zhao Xiangdong won't get any results if he goes back to question her. I have to follow him back in the end."
"Then there will be no result of this matter?" Lin Jianguo was furious, and the day when he took his sister back seemed to appear before his eyes.
"Then is there nothing I can do?" Wang Yanmei felt a little distressed about Lin Xue's experience. She herself had never suffered since she married into the Lin family.
"Let's think of another way. Your sister is still too soft-hearted. She has to stand up for herself no matter what." Lin Xia comforted her. This kind of thing cannot be rushed. No matter what, they can just use the strategy of procrastination for now.
We had lunch at the Lin family. The Lin family was surprised to see Lin Xia taking care of An An.
I didn't expect Lin Xia to be so caring.
"Mom, I want to eat that!" An An was small and sat at the table. Her head was higher than the table, but she couldn't pick up any food, so she could only ask Lin Xia for help.
The word "Mom" made everyone in the Lin family pause.
Lin Xia didn't react at all. After she picked up some food for the little guy, she noticed that everyone in the Lin family was staring at her, and then she reacted.
He smiled at the Lin family, but did not explain anything to them in front of An An.
After dinner, An An felt sleepy and Lin Xia held him and coaxed him to sleep.
Mother Lin stood aside, watching her daughter taking care of the child so well, and felt both sad and relieved, as if she saw her daughter becoming a mother.
"When did she change her mind?" Lin's mother asked curiously.
Lin Xia thought of the day when she changed her words, and she felt soft in her heart, "It's been several days."
Seeing her daughter's happy face, Lin's mother thought of Lin Xue again, and a look of sadness unconsciously appeared on her face.
"Mom, have you ever thought about asking my sister to get a divorce?" Lin Xia thought about it and decided to give her mother a heads-up.
Lin's mother was shocked and couldn't understand why her daughter would have such an idea. "Why did you suddenly have this idea? How can you just get a divorce?"
When Lin Xia saw her mother's panicked face, she knew this was the result. In this era, divorce was something few people would think about. "From the time Zhao Xiangdong came to the time he left today, did he ever say anything about my sister?"
When Lin's mother heard this, she was stunned. After thinking carefully, she found that it was indeed not the case. She felt a little sad, but she still looked dissatisfied with the idea of divorce.
Lin Xia delivered another heavy blow, "If the baby is a girl this time, will she still be fed those messy drugs next time?"
Mother Lin shook her head, not daring to think further. She closed her mouth several times but still said nothing.
Seeing this, Lin Xia stopped trying to persuade them. She couldn't force them to accept her ideas.
Seeing her mother yawning, Lin Xia knew that she was sleepy and was only sitting there to accompany her, so she urged her, "Mom, go to bed. The sun is bright now. I'll be home soon."
Seeing this, Lin's mother asked her to go into their room and sleep, but Lin Xia refused, saying that the strong sun was just an excuse and she had other things to do.
Seeing that she couldn't be persuaded, Lin's mother left Lin Xia alone in the living room.
Lin Xia gently placed An An on the stool to let her sleep, and deliberately moved an extra stool aside to prevent her from falling when she turned over.
I got up and knocked on Lin Jianjun's door, and soon I heard footsteps from inside.
"Little sister? What's wrong?" Lin Jianjun opened the door and there was a hint of surprise on his face.
"Come here."
Lin Xia pulled Lin Jianjun to the corner of the yard, where they could talk without worrying about being heard, and they could also watch to see if anyone was coming.
"What's wrong?"
"Do you know anyone who can help me check something?" Lin Xia said softly.
As she spoke, she leaned close to Lin Jianjun's ear and whispered her plan.
"Really?" Lin Jianjun opened his eyes wide.
Seeing his younger sister nodded, Lin Jianjun knew what was going on. His family had been worried about Xiaoxue, but he didn't expect that his younger sister actually had a solution.
"Why didn't you say it just now?" Lin Jianjun didn't understand why he didn't say it in advance.
"The fewer people who know about this, the better. After all, it's not a good thing." Lin Xia replied.
