Chapter 215: Forced Marriage
"You bastard! I feed you and clothe you!"
"From childhood to adulthood, I've never wronged you in the slightest, yet you act like a debt collector, begging for clothes and jewelry. Linzhi, why don't you just die, you useless, money-loser!"
Lin's father had a ferocious face and a stick in his hand, and he started punching and kicking Lin Zhi.
When Lin's mother heard the noise, she ran out and tried to stop them. However, when she heard the whole story, she also felt that Lin Zhi was an ungrateful person and joined in beating Lin Zhi.
Lin Zhi was not beaten to death because the neighbors could not bear to watch and hear it anymore and came out to stop this cruel and heartless couple.
Linzhi was beaten all over.
Father Lin pointed at her nose and cursed, "If you act like an ungrateful idiot again, no matter how hard others try to stop you, I'll beat you to death!"
Lin Zhi lowered her head and wiped her tears with her hands, "Dad, I know I was wrong."
Father Lin got angry when he saw her like this and kicked her again.
"Who are you crying for? Go cook!"
Linzhi lowered his head, not daring to say anything, and could only nod in a low voice.
He limped to the stove to cook.
After the meal was ready, the family looked at the dishes on the table, threw their chopsticks at Linzhi, pointed at her, and accused her of cooking a terrible meal.
Linzhi just lowered his head and ate in silence.
She has been beaten countless times by Lin's father and mother since she was a child, and she can be said to have become accustomed to her current life.
Whose child doesn’t get beaten?
Linzhi could only comfort herself in this way.
After three or five days, Lin's father and mother's attitude towards her became better, contrary to their usual behavior.
Lin's father even gave her a hundred bucks.
"Zhizhi, you, take this money and buy yourself a red dress and two flowers. You're a girl now, it's time to dress up."
Lin Zhi's heart skipped a beat, and she felt that something bad was going to happen. She looked at Lin's father with a bit of caution, not daring to reach out to take the money. "Father, why are you giving your daughter so much money?"
"It would be great if my daughter had the clothes and jewelry she has now."
Father Lin acted like a loving father, looking at his daughter with loving eyes, "You are getting married soon. Before a girl gets married, she should dress up well, at least buy herself a nice wedding dress."
"We can't afford gold and silver jewelry, but we can still afford one or two flowers for you."
When Lin Zhi heard the news that she was going to get married, she initially felt some hope and yearning. After all, she had been beaten by her father and mother ever since she could remember.
Her younger brother has been pretending to be invisible, enjoying the benefits of her parents' beatings.
Getting married is her only way to escape from this hellhole.
But the next moment, she subconsciously felt that her parents would not choose a good husband for her. After all, they had only one condition for her to choose a husband, that is, the other party's family background must be good enough, at least better than the Lin family, and be able to bring benefits to her parents, or in other words, to her younger brother.
Lin Zhi bit her lip and couldn't help asking, "Since my father said I was getting married, how come I didn't know anything about it? Who is the other party?"
The smile on Lin's father's face faded a little.
I don’t know why, but this girl Linzhi talked so much today.
"You've seen the pork butcher named Gao in the east of the city, the one with the scar on his forehead."
Linzhi suddenly widened her eyes and looked at her father in disbelief.
Gao the butcher loved drinking. Once he drank, he would go crazy and beat his wife and children.
His first three wives were beaten to death by him when he was drunk.
The third wife's death was the most tragic.
After drinking, he forced his wife to cook noodle soup for him. During the cooking process, he repeatedly pressed his wife's head into the soup.
So much so that his wife was boiled to death.
This kind of bastard should go to hell.
But his son actually spent some money, saying that he, as a son, had forgiven his father on behalf of his biological mother, and actually took the beast out of prison.
"Any parent who loves their daughter would not marry her to a bloodthirsty beast. Dad, I am your biological daughter. How could you marry me to that butcher Gao?"
The poor woman who was boiled to death by the butcher Gao was even strong and healthy, and usually cheerful and generous, yet she ended up like this.
What about her?
She had been beaten by Lin's father and mother for many years and had suffered from many minor illnesses. If it really came down to it, how could she be a match for Gao the butcher? I'm afraid she would die within three or five days after getting married!
"Dad! I won't marry!"
"If you want to marry, marry yourself!"
"I would never marry someone like that!"
This was the first time that Linzhi rebelled against his parents so fiercely.
As you can imagine, what she got in return was another slap in the face by Lin's father who couldn't bear it anymore.
"Shameless little whore, what are you talking about here? How can you decide whether to marry or not?!"
"Linzhi, I really raised you too well. I spoiled you until you didn't know how high the heavens were and how deep the earth was, and you even dared to disobey your parents!"
"Do you know how much betrothal gift that Butcher Gao gave to our Lin family?"
"What's wrong with marrying him? He's a butcher. Once you marry him, you'll have endless meat to eat!"
"Besides, he has a little daughter. If you marry him, we can take his daughter over and make her your brother's child bride!"
It is such a great thing that I can get money and find a wife for my son!
But Linzhi is the only one who doesn’t know what’s good for him!
The more Father Lin thought about it, the angrier he became, fearing that this stupid girl Lin Zhi would ruin the good things for him and his son.
He slapped her across the face, his face showing a warning as he said viciously, "You'd better buy your clothes and flowers and prepare to get married. Otherwise, even if you get married in the future, your mother and I will still beat you!"
When Lin's mother heard him beating the child, she came out and symbolically stopped him.
In the end, he couldn't help but accuse Linzhi of being ignorant.
Lin Zhi raised her head, wiped the tears from her face, and stared at her mother unhappily, "Mom, my father forced me to marry that murderous butcher Gao. Do you also think I'm ignorant?"
Mother Lin's eyes flickered. After a moment, she sighed, wiped her tears and said, "Zhizhi, this is fate!"
