Chapter Sixty-Six: The Four Great Families (1/2)



Regarding Xiao Hong's stalking of her, those two thugs spent two days finding her, and after two days of stalking, they hadn't gained anything! It's Saturday again! Lin Jin has no classes!

She was going to her godmother's house for lunch today, so she went to Liu Yilan's house early in the morning. Liu Yilan didn't know Lin Jin was coming today; she had gone out to do odd jobs. Only Xiao Tao and Xiao Pingping were home. When Lin Jin arrived, Xiao Pingping had just gone to sleep; she had worked the night shift last night and had only just returned this morning!

Lin Jin first checked Xiao Tao's pulse and found that he was recovering well. Xiao Pingping was a light sleeper, but when she heard that Dr. Lin had arrived, she got up. Lin Jin looked at Xiao Pingping's tired appearance and didn't want to disturb her sleep, so she left quickly.

She wasn't disappointed; after all, she had plenty of time to find out the truth about this!

Lin rode her bicycle to her godmother's house. Today seemed a little special because Qin Ming was also home! However, it was regrettable that Qin Xiao hadn't returned since leaving last year.

As soon as Lin Jin arrived at her godmother's house, she immediately and enthusiastically helped prepare lunch. One of the dishes on the menu was mouthwatering cabbage dumplings! The dumpling-making process was filled with laughter and joy. The family sat together, each using their creativity to make all sorts of dumplings, which were so delightful to watch.

In a lively atmosphere, everyone happily finished a sumptuous lunch. After the meal, Li Yanjun pulled Lin Jin to sit on the sofa and began chatting. Qin Ming politely went back to his room to read. Godfather Qin Guodong also went out to play chess with an old friend! Suddenly, only Li Yanjun and Lin Jin were left in the living room! It was a perfect opportunity for Lin Jin to ask her godmother about Xiao Hong!

Lin Jin hadn't wanted to investigate her background, but since they'd come knocking, she couldn't pretend nothing had happened! Regarding the Yu family, after arriving in Beijing, aside from initially helping an old man named Yu treat his asthma, she hadn't seen any other members of the Yu family. However, when she casually asked, the old man Yu claimed he didn't have a daughter at all! This puzzled Lin Jin greatly; perhaps they just shared the same surname!

Lin Jin looked at Li Yanjun and asked, "Godmother, are you very familiar with Aunt Liu, whom I helped before?"

"You know me well! Don't forget what your godmother does!"

Li Yanjun said proudly. Then she asked with some concern, "Why are you suddenly asking about her? Why is she looking for you again? Is her son not doing well again?"

Lin Jin quickly shook her head and said, "No, I went to get her son checked again today. He's fine. He's a little weak, but he'll be completely recovered in a month or so!" Then she changed the subject and said, "Doesn't she have a sister-in-law? I went there once and she happened to be there too. She was implying that she looked down on Aunt Liu's family. What does she do for a living?"

Li Yanjun was filled with doubt. She couldn't understand why her daughter would suddenly care about other people's affairs. However, despite this, she was still indignant, so she said angrily, "Hmph! That sister-in-law is a heartless person! Back then, her brother treated her incredibly well, and even after he got married, he still doted on her. Moreover, your Aunt Liu treated her very well, and Tao Tao's grandmother was even better. She emptied the family savings to help her with her job! She always gave her the best things in the house first! But what did she do? She looked down on her sister-in-law when she was a young girl, and after she married into the compound, she became even worse, looking down on her sister-in-law even more, and coming home less and less often!"

Li Yanjun grew angrier as she spoke, her voice rising several octaves involuntarily. "I heard that after Tao Tao's grandparents and father passed away one after another, he never came back home! What kind of family is this? He has no regard for family ties at all!"

Seeing her godmother getting more and more excited, Lin Jin quickly interrupted, "Godmother, you're amazing! You know all this!"

Li Yanjun was a little embarrassed by her daughter's praise and said, "I only heard that from other people! She's quite famous in their alley!"
