She didn't dare to hit Yang Lin; traditional ideas held her back.
But today she will absolutely not let Yang Lin off the hook.
Yang Lin tried to shake him off, but couldn't.
He wanted to push Sister-in-law Lu, but when he turned his head, he saw Qiao Wanyue and Lu Rong sharpening knives in the yard. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law each had a knife, which were sharpened to a gleaming shine. Qiao Wanyue was even gesturing at him with the knife.
Yang Lin felt a sudden surge of anger.
A wise man doesn't suffer a loss he can avoid.
He whispered, "I'm sorry."
Sister-in-law Lu deliberately raised her voice, "What did you say?"
Yang Lin gritted his teeth, "The eldest son's..."
Hohohoho
The sound of sharpening the knife grew louder.
Yang Lin:.......
He closed his eyes and reluctantly turned his head. "Xiao Hui, I'm sorry, Grandpa didn't mean it."
The child had no idea of any threat. He said in a soft, sweet voice, "It's okay, Grandpa. Don't sit on the doorstep next time, you'll block the way." The little guy's innocent words made the adults hold back their laughter.
Yang Lin's face turned a deep purplish-red. He wanted to beat the little guy, but when he saw the protective Sister-in-law Lu, with her angry eldest brother standing behind her, and the two women sharpening knives in the yard, he hesitated.
He felt a lump in his throat, as if he were about to choke on blood.
He angrily threw off his sleeves and stormed out the door.
Sister-in-law Lu carried the child into the house, but as for where Yang Lin went...
Nobody cares.
"Xiao Hui, be good, come here and Grandma will hold you." Lu Rong hugged the little guy and coaxed him.
The little guy wasn't one to hold grudges; he hugged his grandma's neck and gave her a quick peck on the cheek.
Lu Rong sighed, holding the child.
Qiao Wanyue magically produced a few milk candies from her sleeve and stuffed them into Lu Hui's hand, saying, "Here you go~"
The little guy happily took the big white leg milk candy, and started counting the candies on his little fingers. There were five in total. He struggled to get Lu Rong to put him down and divide the candies into portions for his grandma, aunt, and parents.
Finally, he looked happily at the two milk candies in his hand and said sweetly, "Thank you, Auntie."
Qiao Wanyue smiled and said, "You're welcome."
The little guy opened a candy and put it in his mouth.
They then went into the room.
As she watched her son's small figure disappear into the distance, Sister-in-law Lu unwrapped a milk candy and popped it into her mouth.
Sweet.
She turned to Lu Rong and said, "Mom, I just threatened my father-in-law. Will he go and complain to the brigade leader?"
Deep down, Sister-in-law Lu is still afraid of her elders. She was scolded and beaten when she was a child and was afraid of them. Her father-in-law threatened Xiao Hui many times before, but she didn't dare to resist because of her subconscious fear. She didn't know why she was afraid.
But she was still worried.
Lu Rong smirked and walked over to pat her on the shoulder.
"Eldest daughter-in-law, I'm sorry. It's all because I couldn't stand up for myself that Xiaohui suffered. Don't worry, even if he goes to complain, how can an old man like him bully a child? Don't be afraid." Lu Rong knew his eldest daughter-in-law's temperament.
Sister-in-law Lu had lost her earlier bravado and hung her head.
Lu Rong said, "He was taking this opportunity to make a scene and try to get our attention."
Lu Rong sighed.
He slumped to the ground, dejected.
Qiao Wanyue brought three stools from the house and had Lu Rong sit on them.
