Chapter 218: Life is too bitter, I need a piece of candy
The uncle sighed, with a look of pity in his eyes and a trace of reluctance between his brows, and slowly looked towards Linzhi.
"Zhizhi, I'm sorry for putting you through this."
Linzhi's eyes suddenly turned red. When she heard such comforting words, her nose felt sore and tears fell one by one.
All along, she didn't cry when Lin's father and mother forced her to marry that beast.
She didn't cry when Lin's father wanted to beat her to death with a stick.
But at this moment, someone suddenly stood in her position and said to her that she was wronged. She suddenly felt extremely sad and wanted to cry.
How can I not feel wronged!
From childhood to adulthood, she has always abided by her duties and has never been disobedient or unfilial. If her parents tell her to go east, she would never dare to go west.
But even so, her parents would always beat and scold her.
Her parents don't love her.
Since she was a child, only her uncle felt that she had a hard life.
Perhaps at this moment, only her uncle would feel sorry for her and tell her that she has been wronged.
Linzhi burst into tears, but held the knife tightly in her hand and refused to let go.
My uncle sighed again, and then showed some sadness, shouting that it was a sin.
He stamped his feet, turned his head angrily, and pointed at the black-hearted couple, "You two are not human beings!"
"Zhizhi is such a well-behaved and sensible child, and you are pushing her into the fire pit!"
"Do you two have any humanity left?"
After being scolded like this, Lin's mother felt extremely aggrieved and just raised her hand to wipe her tears.
She sobbed and said aggrievedly, "We are such a poor family, how can we find a good husband for her? If she doesn't marry, how can her brother get married?"
"With a child bride by our side, we can also support her brother's education and no longer have to worry about her brother getting married in the future."
"Do you think I, as a mother, really want to treat my daughter like this? There's no other way. If I were a prince, I would definitely raise Zhizhi like a treasure!"
Listening to Lin's mother defending herself at the top of her lungs, Lin Zhi stared at her coldly with a hint of sneer on her face, as if she had long seen through her mother's hypocrisy.
"That's enough, mother. You don't have to say this anymore."
"You don't find it disgusting to say this, but I feel disgusted just by hearing it!"
No matter what, if the Lin family was a wealthy family, they would definitely treat her like a precious treasure.
"If our family is really as you say, you'll probably marry me off to some powerful person with perverted hobbies so that your family can rise to prominence!"
People who don't love their daughters will not start treating them well just because their family suddenly has money.
They only think about how to sell their daughter for a better price.
Those words that come from the heart are just used to deceive yourself and others.
Father Lin had a ferocious look on his face, and Mother Lin was at least willing to pretend, but she didn't even want to act.
"Linzhi, you beast!"
"Your mother went through so much hardship to give birth to you and raise you, yet you actually said such outrageous words to hurt her heart. If I had known this, I would have strangled you to death!"
Lin Zhi just held the knife tightly in her hand and looked at him expressionlessly, "Daddy, if you want to kill me, it's not too late."
As she said this, she was indeed holding the machete tightly in her hand, refusing to let go.
If Lin's father really dared to attack her, I'm afraid the knife in her hand would not recognize who is her father and who is her mother.
“That’s enough!”
"How long are you going to force this on the child?"
The uncle spat at the black-hearted couple fiercely, his eyes filled with disappointment. "No wonder the child is so sad now, even using a knife to attack others. With parents like you, it's not Zhizhi's fault!"
He took the crutch in his hand and pounded it hard on the ground, and even hit Lin's father and mother several times with the crutch.
The uncle blew his beard and glared, protecting Linzhi behind him, with a bit of the meaning of protecting his calf, "I tell you, as long as I am here, none of you will force Zhizhi to marry that butcher!"
Linzhi lowered her head, and the tip of her nose felt more and more sore.
Since she was a child, her uncle was the one who treated her best.
When her parents forced her to marry the butcher, only her uncle was willing to protect her.
At this moment, Linzhi didn't know whether to be moved or feel amused.
How ironic.
Her own parents want to push her into the fire pit.
Only her uncle was willing to protect her and give her a way out.
Uncle's eyes were red. He reached out and touched Linzhi's head lovingly. "Zhizhi, let's go inside and talk."
Lin Zhi hesitated for a moment, then nodded, her voice choked with sobs, "...Okay."
She said yes, but she didn't put down the machete in her hand.
Now, this machete is her weapon of protection.
She would never drop her weapon easily.
When my uncle saw this, he just sighed.
Uncle and Linzhi went into the inner room together.
Only Lin's father was left outside, cursing Lin Zhi and Lin's mother was giving her hypocritical consolation.
Uncle poured himself a glass of water, and seeing Linzhi's expression, he felt more distressed. "Good child. You have suffered so much."
Linzhi shook her head, with bitterness between her brows. When she heard what the old man said, tears immediately flowed out again.
"Grandpa, I'm not suffering..."
What was so hard about it? She had been through this kind of life, being beaten and scolded countless times since she was little, and she had long been accustomed to it.
She just...
Lin Zhi couldn't help but tremble. With a look of sorrow on her face, she asked, "I just don't understand. I'm clearly their biological daughter, so why are they unwilling to leave me alive?"
"My brother is a human being, so am I not a human being?"
She asked almost hysterically.
They are obviously all children of Mr. and Mrs. Lin.
Why should she, as an elder sister, be inferior to her younger brother!
When my uncle heard this, he just sighed. Yes, why were Mr. and Mrs. Lin the only ones unwilling to leave Zhizhi a chance to live?
The uncle's voice was a little choked up, "Child, I want to persuade you, but I don't know where to start."
Where should I start to persuade?
He also didn't understand why Zhizhi, such a well-behaved and sensible child, had to be with that beast Gao the butcher.
But……
Forget it, my uncle sighed heavily again.
It is Zhizhi's fate to have such black-hearted parents. Perhaps Zhizhi owed this couple something in her previous life.
He fumbled in his sleeve pocket for a long time before he managed to piece together a few taels of silver.
This was what he took out from the coffin book.
It was also the money he had saved for most of his life.
He pushed the money to Linzhi and said, "Zhizhi, take this money. From now on, just pretend that your black-hearted parents don't exist and make good plans for yourself."
Linzhi was stunned at first, and then shook her head violently. Her uncle was not a wealthy man, and everyone in their area was poor.
How could she not know that the winnings were saved from her uncle's coffin money? How could she take it?
"No, Grandpa, please take the money back. I absolutely cannot accept it!"
She couldn't accept the money under any circumstances.
If she took the money, she would feel guilty for the rest of her life.
"No, you take it!"
The uncle forcefully stuffed the silver into her hand, his eyes reddening as he said, "You've had a hard life, child. I know no one has loved you since you were little, and I'm not a capable person."
"My child, you have suffered."
As the uncle spoke, he tremblingly took out a candy and gave it to Linzhi, "Child, have a candy."
"If you eat this candy, your life won't be so hard anymore."
Linzhi burst into tears.
When she was a child, every time she was beaten by her parents and ran to her uncle crying, her uncle would give her a candy.
"Grandpa, I can't accept this money."
"But I accept this candy."
It's too bitter.
This life is too bitter, she really needs a piece of candy to sweeten it.
