Wang Xiuqin's curse left everyone speechless.
Her curse was truly vicious; only Lu Wanqing knew how ruthless she could be to herself.
As soon as she finished speaking, a dark cloud suddenly drifted into the blue sky, threatening a storm!
Lin Jianguo was still working in the field when he looked up at the sky. "Great! It's probably going to rain this afternoon, so I don't have to go out to work. I'm working myself to the bone every day, and I don't even get any oily food. I might as well stay home and sleep!"
Thinking this, he carried his hoe and walked home, and saw a crowd of people gathered in front of his house in the distance.
He rushed back into the courtyard, inquired about the situation, and finally understood what had happened.
"You woman, you're such a spendthrift!" Lin Jianguo squatted on the ground, smoking his pipe in frustration.
"Master, Lin Ye stole the money! We must make him hand it over today!" Wang Xiuqin said, her face contorted as she relentlessly pursued Lin Ye.
Just then, a thunderclap rang out in the sky, startling her so much that she shrank back.
Lin Jianguo, who was smoking his pipe, suddenly looked down at her buttocks. He walked over and touched them, finding a note that read:
"Mom, I'm going out to take care of some things. I'll be back in a few days!"
The handwriting was crooked and messy, like ants pieced together; it was clearly Lin Gou Dan's handwriting.
Wang Xiuqin also saw the words on it and was about to hide them when Lin Ye snatched them away with his large hand.
Show it to everyone.
Now, everyone looked at Wang Xiuqin with contempt. They never expected there to be such a vicious aunt who had bullied Lin Ye for so many years and was now framing him for stealing money!
"Let's disperse, let's disperse, otherwise, when someone gets struck by lightning, be careful not to get struck yourself."
Everyone dispersed, and Lin Ye led Lu Wanqing back to the kitchen to bring the prepared food back to the west room for dinner.
Xu Jianzhong, the head of the household, rushed over and whispered a few words in his wife's ear.
He Shujuan's pupils dilated, her legs trembled with fear, and she hurriedly asked:
"Is our son, Erlai, alright?"
"It's just a minor scrape, nothing serious," Xu Jianzhong said.
He Shujuan breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."
Seeing her best friend and her husband acting strangely, Wang Xiuqin quickly dusted herself off, stood up, and asked, "What were you talking about just now?"
He Shujuan gave an awkward laugh: "Well, I told you, don't get upset... Your son, Gou Dan, was hit by a car in the county town. Old Xu heard it from someone who just came back from the county town. He heard that one of his legs was broken..."
Before she could finish speaking, Wang Xiuqin's vision went black and she almost fell to the ground, but fortunately Lin Jianguo caught her.
After Wang Xiuqin recovered, she couldn't stop wailing, "My money! It's all gone!"
Everyone's lips twitched; so she was so agitated because she was afraid of losing her money.
Since things have come to this, there's no other way but to go to the county town to find my son.
They wanted to trouble Xu Jianzhong to go with them, but Xu Jianzhong held his forehead, looking visibly reluctant.
"I had a little to drink this morning and I'm still feeling dizzy, so I won't add to the trouble."
His son is fine, why should he go along? Anyway, he's a heavy drinker, so this excuse is perfectly reasonable.
Wang Xiuqin knocked on Lin Ye's door again, saying, "As the saying goes, even if we're not close relatives, we're still family. If Gou Dan gets into trouble, you can't just ignore it!"
Now that we know we're family, why didn't you say that when we were dividing the family property, or when you were framing him?
"Auntie, I can go if you want, but I have to get half of the money that Gou Dan has!" Lin Ye said through the door, holding his rice bowl.
I was still listening intently for an echo, but after a while I didn't hear anything. When I opened the door, I found that the person had already walked 500 meters away.
Good heavens, as soon as he heard about the money, just as he expected, he darted away faster than a rabbit!
In the past, Lin Ye would have gone to find the person without hesitation, even knowing that Gou Dan had probably gone to the illegal casino in the county town again.
However, since the family has already separated and the relationship is still so tense, it would be a huge mistake for him to go.
After everyone finished eating, Lu Wanqing cleared the table, and Lin Ye went to wash the dishes.
After tidying up the table, Lu Wanqing coaxed her mother-in-law to take a nap.
Elaine Chao has a habit of taking a nap in the afternoon, and she fell asleep quickly.
Snowball wanted to play more, but Lu Wanqing glared at him and he obediently went to lie down next to Zhao Xiaolan.
"Master, I lured Lin Gou Dan to steal money, and you didn't even praise me?" It rested its head on its front paws and said pitifully.
Lu Wanqing patted its head, thought for a moment and said, "Of course we should fight back if others bully or frame us, but we shouldn't deliberately harm others. Otherwise, what's the difference between us and them?"
She didn't want to be a saint, nor did she want to be a villain; she just wanted to be with Lin Ye, to be an ordinary person, and to live an ordinary life.
She coaxed Snowball to sleep, and then waited excitedly for Lin Ye to come into the house.
Just now in the stove, when Lin Ye wiped her face, the atmosphere was very nice, and she felt like there were pink bubbles all around. She believed that Lin Ye had already fallen for her.
Lu Wanqing covered her burning face, took two deep breaths, and then drew the curtains closed.
Unfortunately, even in broad daylight, the light is still plentiful with the curtains drawn.
The first thing Lin Ye said when he came in was, "Why are you drawing the curtains?"
In the countryside, it's considered taboo to draw the curtains during the day, as people will naturally associate it with things in bed, which can easily lead to gossip.
They live by the river, and few people usually come to visit them, but many people pass by the river to wash clothes.
Lin Ye's face immediately turned red after he finished speaking.
"I... Mom is sleeping, I'm afraid the light is too bright!" What is she thinking? There are more than two people in the room.
It seems I need to earn more money so I can build another house sooner.
At this moment, Lin Ye had the same thought in his mind!
Without further ado, Lin Ye picked up a wood-chopping knife from the corner of the wall and prepared to go to the back mountain to see if he could hunt some wild animals to sell for money.
Lu Wanqing wanted Xueqiu to come with him, but he refused. He really couldn't think of any way that little Xueqiu could help him!
I hadn't gone far when someone walked towards me from the edge of the field.
The man was wearing a dark blue homespun cloth garment with several patches on it. His hair was tied haphazardly back, with a few stray hairs still sticking to his temples. Because of sweat, they were stuck to his face, making him look extremely disheveled.
Looking at that face again, the skin was rough and dark, the lips were dry and cracked, and the eyes were tired; young but looking old.
"Sister, why did you come here?" Lin Ye felt a pang of anxiety when he saw her in such a hurry.
When Lin Chunhua saw her younger brother, she grinned helplessly and said, "Are you going hunting? I'll sit inside and wait for you."
"Hunting isn't something you have to do," Lin Chunhua said so humbly, and Lin Ye felt a pang of sympathy.
Since she married into the Wang family brigade, she has become increasingly haggard, looking like she has aged ten years.
He hurriedly led his sister back home.
