Lin Mansion.
Lin Chao got out of the car tremblingly.
"son!"
"Dad, Mom!"
"You've suffered." Mother Lin hugged Lin Chao, wiping away tears of heartache. "It's all Ning Que's fault. He got you into the Dali Temple. That place is no place for human beings. Go back home and take a shower. Xianhong, check on your brother and see if there's anything wrong. Prescribe some more supplements to nourish him!"
"Um."
Lin Xianhong nodded slightly.
In fact, Lin Chao did not suffer much.
It only takes a few days in total.
All follow the normal process.
Seeing her mother so concerned, Lin Xianhong felt an inexplicable pang of pain in her heart. After she had the abortion, her mother hadn't said a single word of comfort. If it was because she favored boys over girls, she would have been fine with it. But she was so kind to Lin Qinghuan, only to her, she was lukewarm.
Isn’t she the daughter of the Lin family?
"Bah, what a bad family!"
"Why did you let him out?"
"Why don't you arrest this bitch and throw her into the pig cage?"
"Do you really think we Jingyang people are easy to bully?"
"Brothers, something's lost!"
More and more people gathered in front of the mansion.
They were all filled with righteous indignation.
I don't know who started shouting.
Then came a blanket of rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs. Lin Jiang was immediately enraged, and just as he was about to open his mouth to lash out, something unknown smeared his face. The overwhelming stench nearly made him vomit.
"Hurry, go back home!"
Watching them flee back to the mansion in a panic did not dispel the anger of the people of Jingyang. All kinds of filth were thrown towards the vermilion gate, which was disgusting.
Who can be blamed?
Blame themselves!
Ever since Jingyang was placed under the administration of Qi Wang Tian Zhongxun, their nightmare had begun. They didn't want to cause trouble for Ning Que, so they just endured it. After all, they all had some wealth, and they were even in a heroic county and model township, so they didn't want to be looked down upon.
When the locust plague arrived, they tightened their belts and sold everything they had, but it was no match for their flippant promise of a price increase. In just a few days, food prices skyrocketed.
The county magistrate ignored them.
The King of Qi didn't care at all.
The four major grain traders simultaneously raised prices.
Just to squeeze the money out of their pockets!
When they were in despair, Ning Que came!
Brought an endless supply of food.
Ning Que, remembering their old friendship, paid them to plow the land.
Men work as workers, women help in the kitchen, and children remove locusts.
Not only are meals provided every day, but wages are also paid.
The Minister of Works personally led the people to the fields, teaching them how to grow wheat. Officials were even kept in record, and the whole process was a joyful one.
They couldn't even imagine such a day!
Even better than before the disaster!
However, some people don't like them.
They must starve and be forced to kneel on the ground as slaves.
They came to Chang'an to seek an explanation, but they saw Lin Chao being released. The anger that had been accumulated over the years finally erupted...
“What do you do?!”
Patrolmen dressed in black robes and carrying swords at their waists came out. They belonged to the Patrol Inspection Division, under the jurisdiction of the Jingzhao Prefecture Governor. Their main responsibility was to maintain public order in Chang'an and apprehend bandits, similar to the duties of public security officers.
"Your Excellency, we are coming from Jingyang."
"Today I'm going to seek justice from the Lin family!"
The patrol officer glanced back at the Lin residence, seeing it was completely obscured. He lowered his voice and said, "We've all heard about your story. You've been wronged, and it's only right that you come here to vent your anger. But please don't make things difficult for us. Know when to stop. If all else fails, wait until sunset before taking action."
"Okay, I understand."
They are also very respectful.
After all, that's what they said.
Looking at the Lin Mansion, they snorted heavily.
When the sun sets, the number of patrolmen will decrease.
If they took action at that time, the Lin family would be helpless.
…
"Rebellion!"
"Rebellion!"
"How dare a mere commoner come to the Lin family and act wildly!"
Lin Jiang stamped his feet in anger.
When have they ever suffered such injustice?
"Dad, you should go rinse your mouth first..."
"vomit……"
Lin Jiang couldn't hold it anymore.
The stench lingers.
"What's going on out there?"
"They have all dispersed."
"That's good." Lin Chao's face was filled with anger, and he said angrily, "These people are really despicable. They actually came all the way from Jingyang to cause trouble for our family. I dare say that this must be Ning Que's doing!"
"Is this even worth thinking about?"
Lin Qinghuan rolled his eyes and said sarcastically, "Everyone knows that he was officially crowned king today, becoming the only prince of Dafeng. He hasn't even taken the throne firmly, but he can't wait to call the people from Jingyang to cause trouble. It's obvious that he wants to slap our Lin family in the face."
"Um."
Lin Xianhong just nodded in agreement.
All the good feelings I had for Ning Que were gone.
Ning Que said things like, "Let's part ways and live happily ever after; we're strangers, we'll never meet again." He appeared carefree, but in reality, he was fussing over every little thing and keeping his eye on the Lin family.
Lin Xianhong just couldn't understand.
Now Ning Que has divorced her, taken back the betrothal gifts and dowry, and has brought the Lin family to the brink of bankruptcy. Why is he still pestering them?!
Can't you be more free and easy?
Bah, what a hypocrite!
"Brother, don't be impulsive." Lin Qinghuan grabbed Lin Chao who was about to leave and said quickly, "You've just been released. What if you get caught again?"
"Are you going to be bullied like this?"
"There's nothing we can do..."
Lin Qinghuan looked at them and said angrily, "I finally understand now. Ning Que is just turning love into hatred and is deliberately seeking revenge on our Lin family. He wants to use this to prove that if my second sister leaves him, we will die."
