Chapter 14 Lin Yi was beaten
Lin Yi prepared the sweet potato porridge and luxuriously fried two eggs and brought them to Chen Wenjun.
"Eat it while it's hot. It will be daylight soon. Let's go to the vegetable garden."
Lin Yi heard the conversation between his daughter and Chen Wenjun just now. The two of them spoke naturally, not like strangers but more like an old married couple.
He believed that there was nothing innocent between his daughter and Chen Wenjun, but as a father he always had to consider his daughter more, and he didn't want his daughter to get too close to Chen Wenjun.
Chen Wenjun had no idea what Lin Yi was planning, so he followed Lin Yi out after having breakfast.
Lin Qin helped clean the table and washed the fish that Chen Wenjun brought.
At noon that day, the family still drank fish soup.
The next morning, when Lin Yi got up, he found there was still a fish in the kitchen, and even some snails. He couldn't help but frown.
When Lin Qin woke up, he couldn't help but mutter to Lin Qin.
"I told Chen Wenjun yesterday not to send any more gifts, but why did he send me another basin of snails? I'm so pissed!"
Lin Qin was speechless, "Dad! Are you unhappy that someone gave us something for free?"
"Why should I be happy? Is there a free lunch in this world? Don't think I can't see what Chen Wenjun is thinking! He is coming for you! Dad, I'm telling you, even if you can't get along with Liu Yongming, I can't let you be with Chen Wenjun."
This was the first time that Lin Yi made his point clear.
Lin Qin calmly held up his chin and looked at him, "Why? Because he is a Tanka family with no fixed place to live? Or because he has a son who is not very agile?"
"You already know this, and yet you're still asking!" Lin Yi glared at her unhappily. "Our family is already in a state of disgrace in the village, otherwise the Liu family wouldn't dare to bully you so blatantly! If you follow Chen Wenjun later, our family will become the laughing stock of the whole village!"
It's not that he looks down on the Tanka people, but the general environment is like this and everyone's deeply rooted ideas cannot be changed. He would rather Lin Qin marry a widower with land than have her get involved with Chen Wenjun.
Seeing Lin Yi's excitement, Lin Qin was amused. "Dad! Why are you saying so much? I'm not divorced yet. Even if I do get divorced, do I have to marry again? Can't I stay at home and take care of you in your old age?
What if I marry into a family that is even more corrupt than the Liu family? Will I be able to survive?"
"Bah, bah, bah, you are such a crow mouth, can't you hope for something better for yourself? What's the point of saying these bad things all the time? If you don't get married, what will you do when your daughter grows up? I can still accompany you for the rest of my life when I am old!"
The more Lin Yi looked at Lin Qin, the more worried he became. He only had two daughters. The eldest was doing well and her in-laws were supportive, but why was the younger daughter so difficult?
Lin Qin decisively shut up, ran to the kitchen to look at the snails, and said, "Dad! Let's keep the snails for two days and let them spit out the sand before cooking them."
Lin Yi listened to her and took another wooden basin to raise snails.
Liu Yaya stayed there for another three days until her back was completely scabby and the pain was gone before Lin Qin allowed her to go out and play.
Lin Qin took her for a walk around the village. When kind-hearted old ladies asked her questions, Lin Qin lifted up Liu Yaya's back to show everyone, and spared no effort to accuse the Liu family of their crimes.
Now the whole Shanglin Village knows that the Liu family is irresponsible, and also knows that Lin Qin and her daughter were abused in the Liu family.
When Lin Yi heard the news, he didn't say anything and went out to work as usual.
In the evening, Lin Qingxiang suddenly came to Lin Qin anxiously, "Aqin, your father was beaten in the vegetable field with a sack on his neck, go and have a look!"
Lin Qin knocked over the dishes and hurriedly took Liu Yaya to the vegetable field. When she saw Lin Yi lying on the ground covered in blood and groaning, she was stunned and anxiously asked everyone to help send Lin Yi to the hospital.
Fortunately, this was Shanglin Village, and Lin Qingxiang called on others for help, and sent Lin Yi to the hospital without letting Lin Qin intervene at all.
Lin Yi was still receiving treatment, so the captain brought the police over.
"Lin Qin, how is your father?" The captain looked worried.
Lin Qin quickly stood up while holding Liu Yaya in her arms, and replied in a hoarse voice, "Still inside, waiting for the doctor to come out."
The captain glanced at Liu Yaya in Lin Qin's arms, his eyes full of pity, "What's going on with your family recently? Accidents keep happening one after another, is there something wrong with your Feng Shui?"
Police: “.”
Lin Qin didn't know how to answer.
After a while, Lin Yi was pushed out and transferred to the ward.
The attending doctor said to everyone, "The patient has a head injury, two broken ribs, and a broken left leg bone. The leg bones have been X-rayed and the surgery will be done tomorrow. The ribs can only be healed by lying down. It will take about three to five months to heal. Fortunately, there are no vital injuries to the head. The family will go and pay the hospital fees later."
Lin Qin's mind went blank.
The captain and the police officer waited until Lin Yi woke up and asked him about what happened before leaving.
Seeing the captain was about to leave, Lin Qingxiang told Lin Qin, "I'm going to go back and get the money. You stay here and look after your father and the child. Don't run around."
"Uncle, I have money. I will pay you back when my dad is discharged from the hospital." Lin Qin expressed gratitude with tears in her eyes.
Lin Qingxiang waved his hand and said, "We'll talk about these things later."
Lin Qingxiang and his group left in a hurry, and Lin Qin used the phone at the nurse station to contact her elder sister Lin Ying.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief only after Lin Qingxiang sent the money and completed the hospitalization procedures for Lin Yi.
Lin Qingxiang recovered and cursed outside the ward, "If I catch that bastard, I will chop him to death! Ah Qin, did your father offend anyone?"
Lin Qin's eyes were red as she shook her head. "Uncle, don't you know what kind of personality my father has? He has never quarreled with anyone in the village over the years, and the only people he has offended are the Liu family.
Especially Liu Yongming, he came to grab the child that day, and my dad scolded him. I slapped him and smashed his bicycle, and that was it. "
Lin Qingxiang angrily pounded the wall, "I told you Liu Yongming is no good! Where is his home? I'm going to settle accounts with him!"
"No! Uncle, don't be impulsive. We have no evidence. Besides, the captain has called the police. Let's wait for the police to investigate." Lin Qin was afraid that Lin Qingxiang would act impulsively and make things worse.
The captain just came over and heard what Lin Qingxiang said. He scolded him angrily, "You are not as sensible as Lin Qin! You are so stupid even at such an old age. Are you really not afraid of death?"
After talking about Lin Qingxiang, the captain looked at Lin Qin and said, "I just came from the police station. The police have already gone to investigate. Although your father's vegetable field is close to the village entrance, it is still in the village. The money on him is not lost, which means that the other party is not after his money. He is so heavy-handed, it seems to be venting anger. Think carefully, who has your father offended recently?"
Lin Qin and Lin Qingxiang exchanged glances.
Lin Qingxiang shouted angrily, "It's Liu Yongming! It must be him! I'm not done with that bastard!"
Lin Qin was about to say something when she saw Chen Wenjun at the end of the corridor out of the corner of her eye and shook her head slightly at him.
Chen Wenjun immediately understood what she meant and turned away.
