Chapter 34: The Lin Family Was Looted
Mr. Li said "hmm" in a very arrogant manner and walked into the restaurant without looking back.
Seeing her smiling so happily, Zhong Heyang raised his hand and rubbed her head, "Okay, let's go home."
Lin Ziqiu sat in the back seat, clutching the corners of Zhong Heyang's clothes with both hands.
When the two arrived at the house, everyone else had already gone to bed.
Lin Ziqiu was tired after a day of work. She took out the cloth bag, took out the money inside, and hid it in her own space.
She prepared a wooden box for herself to keep money.
Once she has saved enough money, she won't have to worry about going to college.
In her previous life, she took first place in the city, but the Shen family was afraid that she would turn against them after going to college.
He even locked her at home and didn’t allow her to go, only allowing Shen Nanfeng to go.
Later, a leader from the city came and she took the opportunity to escape, thus winning herself the opportunity to study.
Later, she met a noble man, with whose help, she used her cooking skills to expand the small restaurant into a national chain.
Unfortunately, until now she has never met the noble person who helped her, and she doesn't even know his real name.
If she were lucky enough to meet him again in this life, she would definitely repay him for his kindness.
"what's on your mind?"
Zhong Heyang's voice interrupted her thoughts. Lin Ziqiu came back to his senses and reflexively propped himself up from the bed, "Nothing."
Zhong Heyang glanced at her and patted the edge of the bed, "Come and soak your feet."
He actually went to get himself some water to wash his feet! ?
Lin Ziqiu declined a little embarrassedly, "Still...you can go soak by yourself, I'll go downstairs to wash up."
Zhong Heyang, "Be obedient."
Lin Ziqiu felt a little embarrassed.
She convinced herself little by little, and finally slowly moved to the bed and stretched her feet over.
She hadn't even taken off her socks.
Zhong Heyang held her ankle with his slender hand and took off her socks with his other hand.
He held the little girl's feet and put them into the basin little by little.
"How is it? Is the temperature right?"
The man's low and hoarse voice was magnetic, and Lin Ziqiu's heart skipped a beat for unknown reason.
She bit her lower lip lightly, not even daring to look him in the eye, "Suitable, suitable..."
"good."
Zhong Heyang had never washed anyone's feet before, but when he saw that she looked very tired today, he thought of this. Originally he was worried that Lin Ziqiu would not agree.
Lin Ziqiu felt that every time the man's hand touched her feet, she couldn't help but tremble at the tip of her heart.
In order to divert her attention, she asked again: "Why did you pick me up at the hotel today?"
"Hmm?" Zhong Heyang raised his eyebrows.
Lin Ziqiu held his chin with his hand, "Did you do something bad behind my back?"
According to normal logic, Zhong Heyang knew that she was going to Lin's house tonight, so even if he was going to pick her up, he should go to Lin's house instead of the hotel.
Zhong Heyang laughed, "What bad things can I do?"
Lin Ziqiu pursed her lips and said, "How should I know? I'm not a worm in your stomach."
Zhong Heyang pinched her feet deliberately and said, "I need to keep track of my wife's whereabouts at all times."
Lin Ziqiu chuckled, "Let me guess, you won't go to see my grandpa today, right?"
Zhong Heyang paused, he didn't expect that she had guessed it.
This time it was his turn to be curious, "How did you know?"
"My grandpa wasn't surprised at all when he saw you tonight."
Zhong Heyang smiled and said, "You observe very carefully."
Lin Ziqiu felt a little embarrassed.
After washing his feet, he picked up the basin and went out. When he reached the door, he turned his head and asked, "Are you free tomorrow?"
Lin Ziqiu huddled in the bed and blinked blankly, "I have to go to work tomorrow, what can I do for you?"
Zhong Heyang has been thinking about taking Lin Ziqiu to buy clothes. He doesn't know what kind of clothes Lin Ziqiu likes, so he can only buy the most suitable ones by taking her to try them on.
"Then go ask at work tomorrow when you can take a break, and I'll take you clothes shopping."
Lin Ziqiu's eyes flashed with anticipation, and his voice became a little more excited, "Okay!"
When Zhong Heyang came back, he found that the person on the bed was already asleep. He immediately took off his clothes and got into bed.
…
The other side
After everyone left, Lin Dahai locked himself in and got very angry.
He even kicked open Lin Mengyao's door. If Zhang Xiumei hadn't stopped him, Lin Mengyao would have been severely beaten.
Zhang Xiumei stood in front of Lin Mengyao and cried, "Now that things have come to this, do you think that if you hit Mengyao, Lin Ziqiu will recognize you as his biological father? In the future, it will be my two children who will take care of you in your old age!"
Lin Dahai's face flushed red, his eyes gleaming with ferocity, "You've spoiled me like this! If it weren't for her, would Lin Ziqiu have taken the money?"
"Money, money, money! You only care about money! If it weren't for me, do you think your daughter would be able to get such a good marriage with the Zhong family?"
She felt so heartbroken when she thought of this.
In the past, Tulin Dahai was an employee. He had money and a house, and he was very considerate to her. Plus, she was quite good-looking at that time, so she was willing to be with him.
But now he realized that the house they had lived in for so many years was not his!
"If you are really that capable, you can find a good family to marry your daughter off to! Why send her to the countryside? I have raised her to this age, but it is useless!"
In Lin Dahai's eyes, Lin Mengyao would be of no use to her after going to the countryside. As a girl, if she gets bullied in a rural area, she will have to rot in the village for the rest of her life.
So when Lin Mengyao asked him for money, he was not as straightforward as before, but instead pushed it to her mother.
Zhang Xiumei was so angry that she raised her fist and punched him, "Lin Dahai! If I had known you were such a person, I would never have married you!"
Lin Dahai dodged and reached out to grab her, "You think you are such a good person! You are just a slut that no one wants! If I hadn't felt sorry for you, do you think you could have lived such a good life?"
"You bastard!"
Zhang Xiumei never expected that she was worthless in his eyes.
Neither of them gave in and started fighting right away.
Lin Dahai's face was scratched by Zhang Xiumei, and Zhang Xiumei was not much better off, with several bruises on her arms.
Lin Xiaojun cried and went to stop the fight, but Lin Dahai pushed him hard. He lost his balance and fell to the ground. The back of his head hit the corner of the table and he rolled on the ground in pain.
Seeing that their son was injured, Zhang Xiumei and the others stopped and hurried forward to check his injury.
Zhang Xiumei touched her hands with blood: "My son! Lin Dahai, you bastard! It's fine if you hit me, but you hurt your son like this, are you crazy!"
Lin Dahai also loves his son very much.
On weekdays, I can’t bear to beat or scold him.
He was in a panic now. "Send him to the hospital! Send him to the hospital quickly!"
So the couple took their son and ran to the city hospital overnight.
Lin Mengyao, who was hiding in the corner and witnessed all this, had no sympathy or worry about her brother's injury.
Seeing that they had all left, she suddenly got up from the ground, rushed into Zhang Xiumei and their room, and rummaged through the drawers and cabinets to look for the remaining money.
She can't stay in this house for even a second, she wants to go to the countryside!
Go find her happiness!
With the memory of her previous life, Lin Mengyao easily took away all of Zhang Xiumei's private money.
Not only that, she also packed up all the skin care products that Zhang Xiumei usually didn't want to use, such as vanishing cream, and took them away.
Everything of value in the entire Lin family was taken away.
…
The next day, Lin Ziqiu got up early and went to work as usual.
"Xiao Qiu, you're awake. Come and have breakfast. It's still hot." Li Guixiang happily handed her a bowl of porridge. "He Yang left before dawn. He told me to tell you that you should ride a bicycle to work. It's too far to walk."
The weather was getting colder and colder. Lin Ziqiu held the steaming bowl in both hands, and the warmth instantly spread from his fingertips to his whole body.
"Okay, thank you grandma."
Lin Ziqiu thanked her and sipped the porridge. "Grandma, it's cold. I'll cook in the morning. You can sleep a little longer. You don't have to get up so early for us."
Li Guixiang is a person who can't sit still. "I don't have much to do at home, you can just focus on making money and don't worry about the things at home."
"Then I'll make delicious food for you when I'm on vacation!" Lin Ziqiu knew that her grandmother was a caring person.
Li Guixiang smiled from ear to ear, "Okay."
Hearing the noise coming from the kitchen, Zhong Xuexi felt a little uncomfortable with the fact that her grandmother could get along so well with Lin Ziqiu.
She walked in and rolled her eyes at Lin Ziqiu, "You ride a bike to work, so what should I use?"
Li Guixiang couldn't help but ask: "Xue Xi, don't you have classes this morning? It's more convenient for your sister-in-law to ride a bike to work, so don't make trouble."
"How did I cause trouble? This car is not hers." Zhong Xuexi still resented the fact that Lin Ziqiu drove her back to the house when Wei Zhihe came to their house.
Lin Ziqiu didn't care how to go to work, but she didn't want to spoil Zhong Xuexi.
“Is this car yours?”
Zhong Xuexi crossed her arms and said, "This car belongs to my brother!"
"Oh, it's my husband's." Lin Ziqiu deliberately emphasized the word "husband". "Since my husband lets me ride him, even if you are his sister, you have no right to interfere."
Zhong Xuexi was suddenly speechless.
It was the first time that Li Guixiang saw her granddaughter being humiliated, and she couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Your sister-in-law is right. Your brother has the final say on the car. If you don't agree, go buy one yourself."
It’s not that Zhong Xuexi doesn’t have the money, but she has always been very stingy and would never spend more than she can.
Li Guixiang was helpless about her stinginess, because Zhong Xuexi was not only stingy herself, but she also forced Li Guixiang to be stingy as well!
So much so that every time she wanted to buy new clothes and things for Zhong Niannian and the other two children, she had to hide them, for fear that her daughter would find out and "lecture" her for spending money indiscriminately.
Zhong Xuexi gritted her teeth in anger, "Are you my grandma or her grandma?"
Li Guixiang picked up a meat bun, stuffed it into her mouth, and said with a smile: "I am the grandmother of both of you!"
Zhong Xuexi took a bite and groaned, but ultimately she didn't go against Lin Ziqiu anymore.
"Where are you going this morning?" Li Guixiang also served a bowl of porridge to her granddaughter.
Zhong Xuexi held the bowl and sat on a small stool. "There is a teaching experience meeting to attend in the morning at Yuquan Primary School."
Li Guixiang pondered: "Yuquan Primary School is not far from where your sister-in-law works. You can take your sister-in-law there by bike later. Isn't that perfect?"
"Why should I give her a ride?"
Zhong Xuexi refused outright.
Lin Ziqiu added coldly: "With your body shape, I will be exhausted if I carry you."
Zhong Xuexi: “…”
She has always hated being told that she is fat, but she can't control her mouth and can't lose weight.
Before she was so fat, people would always praise her for how blessed she was for eating so much.
Now everyone just laughs at her behind her back for looking like a pig, and even her students laugh at her.
She is really annoying!
After hearing what Lin Ziqiu and her grandmother said, Zhong Xuexi felt even more depressed. She grabbed the buns and ate them one after another without blinking, as if she was venting her anger.
Just when she was about to take the fifth one, she was stopped by someone, "You need to control your weight. Excessive obesity can cause many high-risk diseases."
As a reborn person, Lin Ziqiu naturally knows more about these things.
Zhong Xuexi shook off her hand, "Stop meddling in other people's business here! Besides, you don't need to take care of my health!"
Li Guixiang sighed, "Your sister-in-law is right. Xuexi, it's not that grandma doesn't want to give it to you. You really have to control yourself."
Zhong Xuexi did not appreciate it. She deliberately ate another meat bun, took away a bowl of porridge, and went back to the house.
Li Guixiang looked at her from behind and said helplessly, "When will this child learn something?"
Lin Ziqiu patted her shoulder and said, "When she realizes that obesity brings a lot of inconvenience, she will understand, and if she really wants to lose weight, I can help her."
Li Guixiang nodded, "Xuexi has been against you all the time, and you still think about her. I am ashamed for her!"
"But then again, you're too skinny. Don't just be busy at work. If you don't eat well, I won't let you go out to work."
Lin Ziqiu responded obediently, "Yes, I will definitely listen to grandma and eat well."
"That's right! I hope you can give me a big fat great-grandson!" Li Guixiang immediately responded. As if she realized something, she added, "A granddaughter is fine too! I like both boys and girls. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. We don't favor boys over girls in our family!"
Lin Ziqiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Her pressure didn't come from whether the child was a boy or a girl, but from making a baby...
When going out, Lin Ziqiu deliberately waited at the door for a while.
Although she had an argument with Zhong Xuexi, she would not ride the bike away alone for her grandmother's sake.
Li Guixiang called for her, "Xuexi! Are you okay? Your sister-in-law is waiting for you, come out quickly! Don't be late!"
Zhong Xuexi hesitated for a long time before coming out carrying a canvas bag.
She glanced at Lin Ziqiu unhappily, "Come down quickly! Don't waste my time!"
Lin Ziqiu asked: "Will you give me a ride?"
"What else? With your skinny arms and legs, I don't dare to give you a ride."
After preparing herself mentally, Zhong Xuexi faced this reality naturally.
Lin Ziqiu didn't care. She was happy to have someone providing free labor.
So, the two sisters-in-law, who had always been at odds with each other, rode in the same car for the first time.
A neighbor lady in the compound saw them and greeted them with a smile: "Xue Xi! Where are you taking your sister-in-law?"
Zhong Xuexi was still very polite outside, "Good morning, auntie, let's go to work!"
"Oh, you two have such a good relationship, just like real sisters!"
The smile on Zhong Xuexi's lips froze. She laughed dryly twice, left quickly without saying anything.
