Chapter Ninety-Eight: It's still uncertain who will get shot.
She was almost fooled by Lin Bao's family, but now she realized that there is no way to determine whether a child is biologically related to the parents. The so-called "blood test" is completely unreliable; just add some alum to the water or use warm water and the two drops of blood will mix together.
Thinking of this, Yang's mother straightened her back, raised her chin high, pointed at Lin's mother, and said arrogantly, "Today I'm giving your Lin family two choices! Either your family brings out 'three turns and one sound' (referring to a set of jewelry), plus five hundred yuan as a bride price, and you marry my daughter into the family in style; or you let Lin Sanlang be arrested and shot! Guo Cuicui, you'd better think carefully, is your son's life more important, or your daughter's reputation!"
"You think you can scheme against my little sister?"
A cold voice suddenly rang out, and Lin Erlang was already standing at the front door, his glasses reflecting a few cold glints in the afterglow of the setting sun. He had just reached the door when he heard Yang's mother spouting this arrogant nonsense.
Yang's mother was momentarily intimidated by his imposing manner, but then she adopted a rogue's stance, spreading her hands: "What? You don't agree? Fine, then I'll just send your third brother to be shot!"
"We don't even know who'll get shot yet."
Lin Erlang sneered, his tone carrying an undeniable sense of oppression: "Get out of here now, and at most one person from your Yang family will suffer; if you keep bothering my sister, once the police arrive, none of your entire family will escape!"
In fact, before the Yang family arrived, Lin Erlang had already quietly gone out the back door and found some thugs he knew from the same village.
Ever since Sanlang told him that the Yang family planned to use Yang Chunyan as a bride in exchange, he has been spending money to hire people to keep an eye on the Yang family day and night.
This one look turned out to be quite significant; not a single member of the Yang family was clean!
The stuff that thug gave him was enough to send the entire Yang family to jail. Especially Yang Chunguang—he was definitely going to get rid of him.
In fact, from beginning to end, he never intended to let those scumbags from the Yang family go!
Lin Baozhu observed her second brother's composed demeanor and realized that he must have gone to meet someone when he went out earlier...
"Who are you trying to scare?" Yang Chunguang tried to appear calm. "I, Yang Chunguang, am over thirty years old, and I have never acted like a hooligan towards any woman! Unlike your Lin Sanlang, who humiliated my little sister and got her pregnant, and now you don't want to admit it? Let me tell you, no way!"
Lin Erlang chuckled softly, his tone mocking: "Yang Chunguang, I'd like to see how long you can remain arrogant. Do you really think no one knows about what happened three years ago?"
Yang Chunguang broke out in a cold sweat, his eyes darting around evasively—he had already dealt with that matter, Lin Erlang was definitely bluffing him!
"Lin Erlang, you don't want to acknowledge the child in my sister's womb, and you're turning around and blaming us? If you have the guts, go and call the police!"
Yang's mother panicked, pinched Yang Chunguang hard, and quickly tried to smooth things over: "Oh dear, if this gets to the police, won't we become enemies? If you ask me, we won't ask for a dowry. Just prepare three turns and one ring, and seventy-two legs. Our family has already made concessions, so don't be ungrateful!"
Yang Chunguang choked back tears: "Mother, what are you afraid of? Let them sue! We're in the right, why should we be afraid of what they say? My little sister is in this state, how will she ever get married?"
He didn't believe the Lin family would dare report him to the police—many people had seen Lin Sanlang helping his sister with chores. If things really escalated, they would definitely hold a grudge against the Lin family, and Lin Sanlang would have to suffer on the farm for a few years.
He provocatively scanned the Lin family members, his lewd gaze lingering on Lin Baozhu's face for a long time, his mind already filled with countless filthy thoughts!
He had his eye on Lin Baozhu for a long time, but he was too old. If he went to propose marriage through the normal channels, he would definitely be turned away. So he sent his younger sister to get close to Lin Sanlang, and when it came time to discuss marriage, his family would then ask for a marriage exchange...
At that time, the Lin family will definitely be reluctant to let their daughter-in-law run away, and thus agree to his family's request.
His plan has already begun. Just yesterday, a masked woman approached her and said she would give him five hundred dollars if he could marry Lin Baozhu.
If we can find her identity jade pendant, I'll add another thousand yuan.
A full 1,500! How many years would it take to save that up...?
If it weren't for the fact that there were always people in the Lin family, he would have climbed over the wall last night to look for the jade pendant.
No problem, once I marry Lin Baozhu, I'll get the jade pendant too.
Just then, Lin Sanlang's voice suddenly came from behind the crowd: "Mother, little sister, I'm back."
Before he finished speaking, he had already squeezed into the crowd, dragging someone along with him—the person had a bruised and swollen face, dried blood at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were fixed on the Yang family, filled with bone-deep hatred!
Upon seeing him, Yang Chunguang and Yang Chunyan's expressions changed drastically.
Yang Chunyan forced a smile that looked more like a grimace: "Cousin...cousin...are you here to stand up for me?"
The man scoffed, "Cousin? What cousin would crawl into bed with her cousin and let him do whatever he wants? I remember clearly how slutty you were in bed! You've been with me since you were fourteen, and my brothers and I have already played with you to death!"
"Have you forgotten that time on the hillside when the three of us ganged up on you, hitting you from all three sides? Your screams scared all the birds in the forest away! Should I call them over to help you remember?"
He became increasingly agitated as he spoke, and suddenly grabbed Yang Chunyan's hair and pulled her back, ignoring her screams, he roared, "Now you want to marry into the Lin family with this bastard child and live a good life? Yang Chunyan, you slut! I've given you my whole heart, how dare you!?"
Yang Chunyan was terrified: "No...you're lying! I'm carrying Lin Sanlang's child, it has nothing to do with you!"
"What a fine 'it's okay'? You have a mole on your inner thigh, a dark blue birthmark on half of your buttock, and a red mole on your chest. Three days ago, I even left a mark on your chest; you can see it as soon as you lift your collar..."
As he spoke, he reached out and grabbed her collar. Some sharp-eyed onlookers noticed the fading red marks on her neck. Anyone with experience would know what that meant...
Yang Chunyan struggled and screamed, "Shut up! Stop talking! Stop talking! What right do you have to slander me?"
Although she vehemently denied it, her flustered expression said it all.
The crowd erupted in uproar. No one had expected Yang Chunyan to be having affairs with three men at the same time... With such promiscuity, who would want her in the future?
Just then—
"ah!!!"
Yang Chunyan suddenly let out a piercing scream, and everyone snapped back to reality. They saw Jin Youcai punching her repeatedly in the face, cursing as he did so.
"What are you yelling about? You can't stand this? Damn it, only you know what I've done! You want to get married and live a good life, but you're afraid I'll ruin things, so you write a report against me? I spend half of the money I make on you, so if I'm in trouble, you're not getting away either!"
He struck with extreme force, and Yang Chunyan's face quickly became a bloody mess, swollen and deformed, her nose was almost smashed off, and she eventually fainted from the pain.
Throughout the entire ordeal, Yang's mother and Yang Chunguang didn't dare utter a single word in her defense; they were so frightened that they huddled together, trembling with fear.
Jin Youcai threw Yang Chunyan to the ground like trash, then suddenly turned his head, his bloodshot eyes fixed on Yang Chunguang...
