Chapter 17 Where is Your Upbringing?
As soon as Mr. Qin finished his question, before his father and mother could speak, Mrs. Qin spoke first: "I will do as she says and make a clean decision.
That rebellious girl has little ability, but she has a big mouth. She is petty, selfish and overbearing. If she comes back, it will only do harm to our Qin family and no good at all."
After hearing this, Qin's father and mother looked at each other, and Qin's mother couldn't help but ask, "Is it really that bad?"
"What? Do you think I'm lying?" Old Madam Qin glared. "You haven't seen what she looks like. She's dark and skinny.
She is like a black monkey, walking with her head down and her back hunched, with no temperament at all. She only went to school for two years. Even if we wanted to train her,
There is no time. ”
When Old Madam Qin said this, she turned away angrily, with an expression that showed she didn't want to look at him any more.
After hearing this, Qin's mother felt even more complicated. After all, it was her own flesh and blood, and she never expected that someone would grind it into waste.
Alas, Qin's mother sighed and asked unwillingly, "Can't you really take her back as an adopted daughter?"
"No, she doesn't look down on my status as an adopted daughter, and she also said that I have to give her an answer tomorrow.
If you don't give her a perfect answer tomorrow, she will go to your workplace and the municipal party committee to make trouble. She wants everyone in the city to know about it."
Old Madam Qin became angrier and angrier as she spoke, and finally she slammed the table hard, saying that she had never seen such an ignorant child.
So what if she is the adopted daughter of the Qin family? Are they mistreating her?
Hearing that Xu Lin was going to make a scene known to everyone in the city, Qin's father and mother's faces immediately turned ugly. They were all people within the system,
But I can't afford to lose such a big person.
If this gets out, how will they be able to face going to work?
No, this matter must not be made public.
The couple got together to discuss what to do. If they really had to choose between the two, how would they choose?
To be honest, Qin Fang was raised by them, so they must have feelings for her.
Sixteen years, that’s not just sixteen days. The feelings accumulated over time cannot be severed in an instant.
The thought of their precious child having to go back to his family and suffer made both of them feel uneasy.
They kept complaining about Xu Lin being ignorant, asking why she couldn't understand their feelings as parents and why she had to force them to choose between the two.
Or does Xu Lin think they will definitely choose her?
The four parents were discussing enthusiastically in the study, but they were unaware that a slender figure was eavesdropping outside the window.
Only after the discussion in the room ended did the figure leave cautiously.
The next day was Sunday, and Qin's father and mother didn't have to go to work. After breakfast, they sent someone to the machinery factory compound.
It was the same man who came to pick someone up yesterday who knocked on the door, but this time it was not Xu Lin who opened the door, but Xu Nuan, who had dark circles under his eyes and down his nose.
Hearing that the visitor was looking for Xu Lin, Xu Nuan's face turned very ugly and she wanted to slam the door at that moment. She didn't want to pass on the message.
But feeling the pain in her body, Xu Nuan thought that she should just tell the truth, otherwise she would be beaten afterwards.
But Xu Nuan didn't expect that even if she passed the message, it still offended Xu Lin and she was pinned to the ground and beaten.
Of course, it was not only Xu Nuan who got beaten, but also Xu Kun, who was dreaming in bed, and Xu's father and mother.
As well as Mrs. Xu, who had just fallen asleep after being disturbed all night, no one in the family of five escaped.
Xu Lin said that he would be beaten three times a day, so there must be no less than one.
After stretching her muscles, Xu Lin, feeling refreshed, followed the visitor.
But she didn't know that not long after Xu Lin left, a woman with her head and face covered entered the Xu family's yard.
Soon Xu Kun and Xu Nuan were driven out of the main room and rushed to the gate of the courtyard to guard.
As for what the woman said to Old Lady Xu and the other two, the two siblings had no idea.
Xu Lin came to the Qin family again. Looking at the magnificent courtyard house, her heart that wanted to buy one started beating again.
The same environment, but with two more people. Xu Lin's cold eyes swept over the four members of the Qin family, and finally stopped at Qin's mother.
If I remember correctly, in the previous life, Qin's mother and Qin Fang had a very good relationship, which was well-known in Beijing circles.
Anyone who sees them will think they are real mother and daughter.
It was the first time that Qin's mother saw Xu Lin, and she couldn't help but look at her a few more times.
With that thin and dark face, short stature and frail body, Qin's mother couldn't help but compare Xu Lin with Qin Fang.
They are the same age and have the same birthday. Qin Fang is fair, slim, and a whole head taller than Xu Lin.
In comparison, Xu Lin seemed even more unpresentable. Mother Qin couldn't help but flash a look of disgust in her eyes, which was just caught by Xu Lin.
Dislike? Haha, Xu Lin was amused. As expected, some people just have no heart. How could she have the nerve to dislike herself?
Xu Lin curled her lips and quickly shifted her gaze to observe Qin's father's face.
Father Qin's expression was complicated. After the two looked into each other's eyes, Father Qin couldn't help but ask:
"Is it really impossible for me to return to the Qin family as an adopted daughter?"
"No." Xu Lin spoke decisively, interrupting Qin's father's next words. She knew what Qin's father was going to say without even listening.
It's just that they're adopting a daughter in name only, but in reality they will compensate her and treat her very well.
Oh, if you really want to make compensation, shouldn’t you kick Qin Fang out of the Qin family and bring her back openly?
Xu Lin doesn't want that kind of secret compensation.
"You." Father Qin sighed deeply, "Alas, you are too straightforward and will suffer losses.
You should understand that a single tree cannot make a forest. With Qin Fang growing up with you, doesn't that mean you have an extra companion?
Besides, if you two sisters encounter problems in the future, you will have someone to discuss it with.
A hundred years after we pass away, you brothers and sisters will be the closest people in the world, and you should support each other and make progress together. "
Seeing that Father Qin was about to give a long speech, Old Man Qin and Old Lady Qin just stood by and watched. Mother Qin kept nodding her head, thinking that what her husband said was absolutely right.
Xu Lin rolled her eyes and couldn't help but interrupt him again and asked directly:
"Comrade Qin, have you made your choice?"
The words that Qin's father was going to preach to him were stuck in his throat, and his face turned ugly. Xu Lin acted as if he didn't see it and said coldly:
"Just tell me your choice. Forget about raising a daughter. And don't try to blackmail me.
I tell you, I have no morals, and no one can kidnap me. I only give you two choices, understand? "
When Old Madam Qin heard this, she became angry and slammed the table and shouted:
"How dare you! Look at what nonsense you are saying. Is this what the Xu family taught you? Where is your upbringing?
Is this your attitude towards your elders? Is this your attitude towards the Qin family? "
Qin's mother found an opportunity to agree, "Mother-in-law is scolding you, Linlin, how can you be so narrow-minded at such a young age?
Your father said so much but you didn't listen to a word of it. And you still have to choose between the two. Do you know how you look now?
If our family...”
