Lin Lan wondered what might be happening to the troops recently.
According to the plot, he should have changed his job and lived an honest life at home by now, but the original owner suspected him of cheating on her every day and wanted to catch her in adultery, which made him very upset.
In this life, because of her, he has not changed his career until now. Could it be that the butterfly effect has caused something else to happen?
She wanted to find Han Qingsong to ask, but she never saw him.
Lin Lan cooked the meal first.
She wanted to make something delicious for the children, so she cut the big steamed bun given by her third aunt into steamed bun slices, put some oil in a hot pan, dipped the steamed bun slices in cold water, and then fried them in the pan.
Soon the aroma filled the air and the steamed buns were fried until both sides were golden brown. It was a pity that there was too little oil and they could not be fried directly to a golden color.
After frying the steamed buns, Lin Lan called Xiaowang over to eat, and then started to make other things.
Stew the lentils and eggplants, and cook the pancakes on the side of the pot. It is simple and convenient.
Now that food has been distributed, Lin Lan no longer eats just cornmeal, but mixes it with one-third of flour. This way, the food is more nutritious and easier for the children to digest.
"Mom, what delicious food have you made?" Sanwang's pointed nose followed the smell and ran back home. When he saw the brown dried steamed bread after entering the house, he went to take it.
Lin Lan gave him a piece of paper and asked, "Where does your father work?"
Sanwang chewed the steamed bread slices with a smack, "It smells so good. Who gave me this big steamed bread? My aunt? (Uncle)... Are you asking about my father? I saw him rushing after it like a fire just now."
Lin Lan took out the telegram and asked, "Did this telegram come today?"
"Yeah... Mom, wait a minute, I'll go and find out for you." He ran out holding the steamed bun in his hand.
"Slow down, don't fall!" Lin Lan shouted at him.
Soon Erwang and Maisui came back together. They had gone to cut grass and also brought back some firewood, which were all dead branches that had fallen from the forest.
The children were very happy to see steamed bread slices to eat.
Lin Lan asked Da Wang again, this child was also very unpredictable, she thought he was closer to her, but he was moving around unpredictably, like a wild man.
Mai Sui ate steamed bread and said, "What can my elder brother do? He just fights... Oh, by the way, my grandma asked him to go to the county to deliver something to my younger uncle. It's bulging, so there must be money in it."
Lin Lan frowned. She was puzzled as to why the old lady didn't let other grandchildren go and only liked to use her own children.
Dawang is the same. Is his uncle so attractive? Why does he have to go to the city again and again?
I'll give him a lesson when I get back.
Lin Lan asked Mai Sui to make a fire while she spread out the cotton she had brought back and patted it to dry in the sun tomorrow.
Sanwang came back from outside and said mysteriously, "Mom, my dad went to the brigade to look for grandpa."
Lin Lan hurriedly asked what was going on.
Sanwang whispered in my ear, "I know. My dad asked grandma to call him at noon and asked him to give her some money. Dad said he had no money and had to go back to the army to do some work and needed to borrow some money. My grandma scolded him and told him not to borrow a penny from her. Then dad probably went to ask the branch secretary for money."
Borrow money?
If he goes back to transfer to a new job, the army will definitely give him a subsidy. According to the plot, it should be 1,000 yuan, which is the first in their team. For this money, the original owner fought with the old lady for seven days and seven nights, and also had a big fight with her uncle and aunt. In the end, she took 200 yuan back to her parents' home, 300 yuan was taken by her mother-in-law, and the rest was given to her daughter.
Why do you want money now?
She simply didn't want to think about it and would just wait for Han Qingsong to come back and ask.
After dinner, she sent the children to wash and rest. Da Wang and Han Qingsong did not come back.
Lin Lan lit some mugwort to repel mosquitoes, then placed the mugwort straw braid at the door of the main room and let the child sleep while she sat on a wooden block at the door waiting for Han Qingsong.
After the talking in the brigade yard died down, people went back to sleep. Soon Lin Lan heard Han Qingsong push the door and come back.
Did he join the group, too?
Although all the men in the village like to gather there, Han Qingsong never went there before, and she thought it was strange that she went there today.
Han Qingsong came in. It was dark in the yard and he couldn't see anything clearly. The light in the house illuminated her body, making her look surprisingly gentle. He asked, "Why aren't you asleep yet?"
Lin Lan: "Is there something wrong with you?"
Han Qingsong: "It's nothing. My parents and brother are all okay."
Lin Lan didn't expect that he would still care about her going back to her parents' home. "It's good. Mom and her family have gathered several kilograms of cotton. We don't have enough cotton, so we can't sew quilts and cotton clothes in winter."
Han Qingsong nodded and said, "We'll return it to them when we have it."
Lin Lan smiled and said, "Third sister also gave us two big steamed buns. I fried some dried steamed buns and will bring them to you."
"No, I've eaten it." Han Qingsong told her not to bother, "You should go to sleep first."
"Do you need money?" Lin Lan asked, "Why didn't you tell me if you needed money?"
Han Qingsong looked at her in surprise. She was so sensitive? This must be an illusion.
"It's okay, I'll figure it out myself. You go to sleep first."
"I wonder why you are like this!" Lin Lan said angrily.
Now she has no chance to use her knowledge to make money, and she and the children still rely on him. After all, they are grasshoppers on the same rope. What is his attitude?
Not sincere at all!
Han Qingsong saw that she was unhappy and wondered, "Then what should we do?"
Isn't it true that men should shoulder the responsibilities when problems arise so that their wives and children can live a stable life?
"We are husband and wife after all... a family. If you have any problems, you should discuss them with me. Whether it's financial or physical, even if I can't help you, I can still give you some advice and help you resolve them, right?"
This is even more wrong.
Han Qingsong stared at her, as if he wanted to see through her from inside out.
"Something happened to an old...comrade of mine. I have to go back and take a look. I need to bring more money to help him."
It was very likely that he went there to save lives, so he didn't say much to avoid scaring Lin Lan.
Lin Lan naturally understood. After all, although the situation had stabilized over the past 70 years, local struggles were still fierce.
There might be an internal movement going on somewhere.
"I...I have 280 yuan here, you can take it first."
It was 260 before, and I spent about ten dollars on seeing a doctor and buying glasses. I didn't touch anything else. I spent a few dozen dollars on the one hundred dollars split up.
Han Qingsong smiled. She really didn't give the money to her parents' home, otherwise the old lady and the others would have been thinking about it.
"Then lend me two hundred yuan. I will pay you back when I make money in the future."
Lin Lan suddenly got angry, "Why, you don't want to give me the money you make in the future?"
I want to give them all to the old lady!
"I'll give it all to you. Besides making money legitimately, I'll also find other ways to make extra money to supplement you." He promised.
Lin Lan did not doubt his promise, "That's about right."
She went to take out her money, which she had been hiding in Xiaowang's rags. Xiaowang's clothes all had the peculiar unpleasant smell of children, so before the separation of the family, even though Old Lady Han and Second Sister-in-law Han had entered the house several times to search when she was not at home, they could not find it.
She went out and handed the money to Han Qingsong. She believed that this comrade-in-arms and Han Qingsong must have a deep relationship, otherwise he would not be so nervous.
Han Qingsong looked at it in the dim light and only asked for two hundred, returning the rest to her, "Take these, if you need anything for the family."
Lin Lan didn't want it. She had already been generous enough to bear the pain and decided to be a good person to the end. "I'll keep some. You can't buy anything without coupons or tickets. You can take all of these. It's better to have more when you go out to do business."
Han Qingsong nodded, "Okay, I'll leave tomorrow and will probably be back in a few days."
Lin Lan smiled and said, "If you have any problems in the future, please speak up. Don't keep it to yourself. I'm not a god and I can't guess what you're thinking."
Han Qingsong also laughed and said, "If you don't mind, I'll tell you later."
Lin Lan remembered what he said before, "Don't tell me about those bad things you did outside." Then she turned around and blamed him for talking and laughing with his comrades, but having nothing to say to her.
I guess he's a bit confused.
The next morning, Han Qingsong went to say goodbye to Old Han and Big Brother Han, saying that he was going back to the army.
Everyone in his family thought he was going to handle the transfer procedures, and told him to go and come back quickly. The old lady even called him in and brainwashed him again, telling him to remember to bring the money home to her first after he transferred to another job, otherwise he would be unfilial.
Han Qingsong just listened, and the old lady was so angry that she asked him to leave.
Han Qingsong asked his eldest brother to help look after Lin Lan and the children and take care of them if anything happened.
Brother Han said, "Don't worry, Dad and I are at home, and your sister-in-law will also go over to take care of it, it's okay."
Han Qingsong said goodbye and walked to the county to catch the train.
He had military ID and could buy a train ticket at any time, but the train was at noon, so he had to wait.
Thinking that Lin Lan said Da Wang was going to the county town again, he left his luggage at the train station and walked to Lianzhong in the county town.
Han Jinbao and Han Jinyu, brother and sister, were studying here. The old lady sent Dawang to deliver letters and things to their uncle. As soon as Dawang arrived in the county, he followed his uncle around and refused to go home.
Han Qingsong has learned a lot about the situation here in the past few days. Erwang and Mai Sui have also been here and told him a lot of things.
Therefore, he already had some understanding of the behavior of his younger brothers and sisters.
Han Jinbao did not go to school seriously. He rode a bicycle all day long, wearing a green military uniform and a military cap tilted on his head. He looked like a city thug and hung out with a group of children from small cadres' families. He either flirted with female classmates or hung out with others.
Han Jinyu was not a serious person. She was busy with GM when she was in elementary school, and she went straight to high school after classes resumed. Nowadays, schools don't prepare for college entrance exams, but they are busy with GM all day long, doing this and that sports, so many people graduate from high school with only the level of elementary school before GM.
Because of the education reform, students do not need to take exams to enter junior high school and high school, and they can even study in the same course, shortening the six years to three years. Therefore, students are lazy and have no ideals.
At this time, middle school and high school students in big cities all went to the countryside to do great things in the vast rural areas, while high schools in rural counties allowed students to return home to farm after graduation.
If you are lucky, you may be able to find workers in the few companies in the county, but there are too many people and too few jobs, so it is not easy to allocate them and you need connections.
Han Jinyu and her brother should have returned home to farm long ago, but they always wanted to stay in the county and work in a factory, but they never had the chance.
So they spent money to find connections and stayed in school, waiting to get jobs in factories, supply and marketing cooperatives, state-owned vegetable markets, hotels and other units.
Young men and women of sixteen or seventeen will naturally cause trouble over time. Han Jinyu wanted to marry an official, a driver or a worker, while Han Jinbao wanted to work in a factory, or if that wasn't possible, he could join the army.
The result was always disappointment, so he was very upset and didn't want to go home. He just hung out in the city with a bunch of unemployed vagrants.
Han Qingsong did not find Han Jinbao, but only found Han Jinyu.
When Han Jinyu heard that his third brother came to see him, he ran out happily.
She was wearing the most popular Dacron dress of the time, with a slim waist, two pigtails, curly bangs, a ladies' watch on her wrist, a pair of black leather shoes with cross-straps on her feet, and snow-white socks. She looked no worse than the female students in big cities.
Seeing her dressed so stylishly and neatly, and thinking about Mai Sui and Lin Lan, Han Qingsong suddenly understood Lin Lan's dissatisfaction.
"Third brother, why did you come to see me just now? Haven't you been back for several days? Take me to the supply and marketing cooperative and buy me a semiconductor radio." Han Jinyu said like a machine gun, pulling Han Qingsong away, "You are a military officer, you can buy it without coupons, right? Jinbao bought one at a high price during the Chinese New Year, and he teases me all day long. I'm so angry, third brother, take me to buy one."
"Mom sent someone to send you a letter that day, why didn't you go home?" Han Qingsong asked her.
Han Jinyu smiled playfully, "Third brother, you won't blame me for not coming home to see you, right? Actually, I'm doing this for your own good. I heard that mother and sister-in-law were quarreling about dividing the family property at home, and it would be too embarrassing for me to go home. Besides, I'm out sketching with my classmates, so I don't have time. I just came back. I came out because I heard that third brother was coming to see me. If it was someone else, they wouldn't be able to find me. I'm busy."
Han Qingsong's face was as gloomy as water. "Where's Dawang? He came to deliver something to you yesterday and didn't go home."
"Don't mention that damn boy. He's so irritating. Hey, why didn't Mai Sui come? No one washes my clothes."
Han Qingsong frowned, "Mai Sui is so much younger than you, only nine years old."
"So what? She's happy. I said I'd give them to her when my leather shoes break. By the way, mom gave me money to buy me a new pair of leather shoes, but I haven't had the chance yet. Brother, do you think it would be good for me to buy a tweed coat? It's so expensive, more than a hundred yuan each." Han Jinyu was still immersed in her own dreams.
"Where is Dawang?" Han Qingsong asked.
"He went out to play with Jinbao. That brat made me so angry. I asked him to wash my clothes, but he insisted that it was a woman's job and he refused to do it. Third brother, you have to teach him a lesson."
"Where's JINBO?"
"Well, they should have gone to the state-owned hotel. At this time, they must have gone out to drink... Hey, Third Brother?"
Han Qingsong had already walked away with big strides, ignoring Han Jinyu calling him from behind.
Han Jinyu stamped her feet and said, "What's wrong with Third Brother? It must be that bitch whispering something in his ear."
…
In a state-owned hotel, a few young people were toasting each other.
Han Jinbao raised his wine cup and said, "Brother, the job at the factory..."
"Hey, why are you in such a hurry? We haven't hired any workers yet. When we do, my uncle will definitely pick you first."
"Thank you, brother. Thank you. Have another one."
After three rounds of drinks, Han Jinbao started bragging without thinking, saying that his third brother was a military officer, listened to his mother the most, and loved him the most.
"I'm telling you guys, wait until my third brother gets a group leader..."
"My third brother loves me the most, even more than his own son. That silly boy named Dawang, my nephew, is his own son. You all saw that he is my little follower, but I don't care about him..."
"Brother Liu, why doesn't Liu Ling come out to play? Let's go to the movies together."
"Bang!" The door behind him was pushed open with force, and a man strode in. His face was stern and his aura was as sharp as a knife, which scared several young men present so much that they gasped.
"Comrade of the People's Liberation Army, comrade, who are you looking for?" Several people stood up quickly and greeted respectfully.
Han Jinbao saw the person coming in and grinned, "Hey, Speak of the devil, this is my third brother I told you about..." He turned around and smiled at Han Qingsong, "Third brother, why did you come to see me just now?"
He went forward to put his arm around her shoulder, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, someone grabbed his wrist and pressed him down on the table.
“Ouch…it hurts, it hurts, it hurts…Third brother!”
Han Qingsong pushed him away and asked coldly, "Where's Dawang?"
"Da, Dawang, Dawang..."
"Where is Da Wang?" Han Qingsong stared at him sharply with eyes as cold as knives.
Han Jinbao felt a chill running down his spine, "He's going home."
Han Qingsong stared at him, as if trying to determine whether he was lying, and then turned to look at everyone.
Being stared at by him like this, several people felt as if they were being stared at by some ferocious beast, just like the two big wolfhounds in the county government compound. It was extremely scary and they couldn't help but shiver.
They saw the badge on his shoulder and knew he was the company commander, so they nodded and bowed quickly, "Third brother, Da Wang has really left and returned home."
Han Qingsong waved his hands and said, "The county town is not big. Please go there and send that naughty kid back to me."
Several people immediately dispersed.
Soon, they actually found Da Wang. The boy did not go home, but was wrestling with a group of kids behind the winery.
Han Qingsong glanced at Da Wang and asked, "Did you report to your mother before you left?"
Da Wang rolled his eyes in his heart, "My grandma asked me to give something to my uncle and aunt."
"Even if you send something, you have to report it to your mother first!"
Da Wang drooped his eyelids and suppressed the whites of his eyes.
"You go home now. If you dare to go out without your mother's permission again, I will come back and discipline you!"
Da Wang doesn't understand the weight of these words yet. He wishes he could leave as soon as possible. He has been meddling in everything for the past few days and doesn't even realize how uncomfortable he is.
He snorted.
Han Qingsong looked at Han Jinbao again and told him not to bring Dawang out to play again.
Han Jinbao: "Third brother, are you blaming me?"
Han Qingsong snorted, and Han Jinbao didn't dare to say anything.
Han Qingsong took Da Wang to the county public security bureau and found a policeman named Liu to send Da Wang back.
Da Wang: "No need! I can go back by myself! I've been back and forth so many times, why would I need someone to take me back?"
Liu Gongan said with a smile: "You kid, don't follow those bad boys, be obedient and be honest."
After Han Qingsong entrusted me with this, I went to the train station when I saw that it was about time.
After he left, Han Jinbao went to find Han Jinyu.
"Is Third Brother crazy?"
Han Jinyu was also angry, "Who wouldn't say that? Didn't you see the tone he used when he spoke to me? It was so fierce, as if I owed him a lot of money."
Han Jinbao said, "Didn't mother say that we were going to divide the family? How is the division going? We have to go back and take a look. Don't let that bitch take advantage of us at home. Look at what happened to our third brother because of her." He was holding back bad temper because Han Qingsong didn't give him face, which made him very angry. His lawless personality made him want to vent his anger.
The two of them went back to prepare after getting together. They packed up their things, including what they needed to take back and what they needed to wash at home, etc. Each of them packed a big bag.
As a result, before they left in the afternoon, Mrs. Han came.
Han's second brother borrowed a bicycle to carry her.
Old Lady Han came naturally because she saw her third son go out. When she saw her youngest son and daughter, she burst into tears, "Gold and treasures! This is incredible! All our money has been taken back by your third brother."
"What?" Han Jinbao was anxious, "Mom, what's going on?"
Old Mrs. Han started to scold them, "On the day of the family division, I asked your second brother to deliver the letter, why didn't you go back? If you were at home, would they still be so arrogant?"
Han Erge quickly said, "I did come that day and met Jin Bao, but it was Jin Bao who said he had something else to do and would not go back. I didn't even see Jin Yu."
Old Mrs. Han grabbed her children and started crying, crying about the money and how they had suffered a huge loss because they didn't go back.
One hundred yuan! Han Jinyu couldn't help but complain: "Mom, why are you crying now?" Her coat!
Han Jinbao pushed her and said, "Stupid, of course they want us to go back and get the money." He has been in the city for a long time and has learned a lot of tricks. He doesn't believe that he can't control a shrew!
Since the third brother is not at home, the poor woman has no one to support her, so she has to go back and ask for money.
So Han Jinbao said hello, rode his bicycle to carry his sister, and Han Erge carried the old lady, and the four of them went home together.
…
Lin Lan went to work in the afternoon. Just as she got off work, she heard the production team leader say that the county public security bureau had sent Da Wang back and asked Lin Lan to go and take a look.
Lin Lan was startled and quickly ran home with the hoe in her hand.
When we arrived at the yard, we saw a policeman in a Type 65 military green uniform pushing a bicycle, with Da Wang standing next to him with a dissatisfied look on his face.
Did you do something wrong?
Lin Lan ran over and said with a smile, "Thank you for sending the child back, Public Security Comrade. Is he not naughty?"
As he said that, he slapped Da Wang in the face and said, "You naughty kid, why did you go to the county town by yourself? What naughty things did you do to alarm the police?"
Da Wang turned his head away and said nothing.
Liu Gongan smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, it's okay. It was your eldest brother who asked you to send the child back."
Han Qingsong?
Lin Lan didn't expect that he would have time to find Da Wang and rush him back after he went to catch the train. She hurriedly thanked him, "Comrade, what's your name?"
Liu Gongan didn't expect a country girl to be so particular. He smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, please tell me your surname is Liu."
"Gong Gong Liu, it's already noon, why don't you go home and have a drink of water, rest your legs, and have a meal before leaving?"
But Liu Gongan refused, "Sister-in-law, I have a mission to perform. I'll leave first."
He waved his hand and rode away on his bike.
Lin Lan quickly waved goodbye, but seeing Da Wang standing there with his neck stiffened as if he had done nothing wrong, she immediately became furious and slapped him again, "You naughty boy, you're running away without saying a word?"
Da Wang curled his lips and said, "I used to run out every day and you never asked me anything, but now you care so much."
"Okay, stop arguing with your mother. You'll be in trouble when your father comes back. Go home and take a shower."
Da Wang turned around and ran, "I'm going to cut the grass."
He ran so fast that he disappeared before Lin Lan could react.
Lin Lan: ...My old mother, you don’t even take the basket and say you’re going to cut the grass?
She put the hoe against the wall and went to the garden to pick some vegetables for cooking.
Nowadays, every household has only a small private plot of land, and apart from growing food subsidies, they also grow vegetables.
When the old Han family split up, they gave the two vegetable plots to Lin Lan, but there are still vegetables now, so everyone eats them together and will grow their own vegetables when the vegetables are out of season in summer.
Lin Lan wanted to pick two tomatoes and make egg soup. The children exchanged the eggs with other people while cutting grass.
I also want to pick some lentils and eggplants to stew.
These are basically the vegetables we have at this time, and there are also pumpkins and other vegetables. Picking two of these pumpkins is enough for several meals, so she doesn't pick more.
Today she took a look and was surprised to find that all the dishes were gone.
Was he harmed by a bad kid?
She looked at her neighbors' houses, they were all fine and no one had touched them, so how come her own house was gone?
At this time, Zhang Caihong, the daughter-in-law of Han Yongshun's family, came over to pick vegetables. Seeing Lin Lan, she smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, your second sister-in-law picked all the vegetables a while ago. We can't finish them at home, so you can pick some."
When Lin Lan heard this, she wondered, "You still want to be like this?"
She smiled and said, "Thank you, Rainbow. I'll go home and get some after my second sister-in-law picks them."
She walked to the old lady's house, and when she reached the door, she heard exaggerated laughter in the yard. It turned out that her uncle and aunt had returned.
She didn't think much about it. She didn't think that Han's second sister-in-law deliberately picked all the vegetables and didn't give them to her. She thought that maybe her younger uncle and aunt had come back and there were not enough people at home, so the old lady asked her to pick more.
She went back to the vegetable garden and saw Zhang Caihong pulling weeds and catching insects there, so she said, "My uncle and aunt are back and they have a lot to eat. Sister Caihong, can I borrow two eggplants?"
Zhang Caihong said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, what nonsense are you talking about? It will be a disaster if we can't finish the food. Go pick some eggplants and lentils."
Lin Lan thanked him, picked two large purple eggplants, and a small pot of lentils. They grow large white beans here, which are especially delicious when stewed. The locals call them "rabbits rolling their eyes."
After picking the vegetables, Lin Lan helped to pull out weeds and catch insects, and also broke off broken branches and tidied up her own vegetable garden.
As the two were talking, Erwang came running over, shouting, "Mom, my uncle has gone mad and is smashing our jar."
When Lin Lan heard this, she ran home without even saying goodbye to Zhang Caihong.
…
A group of people gathered outside the courtyard, pointing and talking.
Han Jinbao's arrogant voice came from the yard, "Lin Lan, you bitch, get out of here! Don't bully the old lady just because I'm not at home!"
"If you don't come out, I'll smash all those jars of yours! Damn it, you're such a jerk for spending my money on all these junk!"
While shouting, he started smashing the jars in the yard with "bang bang bang" and one of them broke with a "bang".
"Bad guy, don't smash my jar!" Sanwang, Xiaowang, Mai Sui and others tried to stop them, but were kicked away one by one by Han Jinbao.
Some people couldn't stand it and tried to persuade Han Jinbao, "Jinbao, why are you messing around when your third brother isn't home? What's the point of bullying a woman?"
"That's right. This is too unfair. The division of the family was decided by the old branch secretary, and your parents agreed..."
"Bullshit! Who do I care who makes the decision? I, Han Jinbao, am not at home. If he doesn't agree, then it's not possible!"
He then swung a stick as thick as his calf and smashed it towards a jar.
“Don’t hit him!” Sanwang rushed over, hugged his leg and bit it.
"Ah——" Han Jinbao kicked Sanwang out in pain.
Sanwang bumped into the broken cylinder pieces nearby and blood immediately flowed out.
"Oh, you little brat, why are you so cruel?"
Someone shouted to report to the old branch secretary and the security director immediately, and someone else went to protect Sanwang and the children to prevent Han Jinbao from getting hurt.
Someone saw Lin Lan coming back and quickly made way for her, "Mother Da Wang, hurry up."
Lin Lan rushed over and saw San Wang's head covered in blood. Her heart ached. She grabbed the hoe at the wall and rushed towards Han Jinbao, "You beast!"
Han Jinbao was showing off his might, with his hat askew on, a straw stick in his mouth and a big stick in his hand. When he saw Lin Lan rushing over, he shouted, "Stop showing off!" He swung his stick and wanted to push Lin Lan aside.
Lin Lan was more agile than he thought. She dodged his stick and hit him hard on his leather shoe with the hoe.
"Ah——" Han Jinbao jumped up in pain, threw away the stick, and rolled into a ball holding his feet.
Lin Lan rushed over to see Sanwang, only to see a hole in Sanwang's forehead from the wound, with the skin and flesh turned outward. She didn't know if the bones were injured. "Sanwang, Sanwang, Mommy will take you to see a doctor."
Lin Lan picked up Sanwang, and the people around him also hurriedly lent a hand, "Go and call the barefoot doctor."
Here, Lin Lan and her friends ran away with Sanwang in their arms, but Han Jinbao was still holding him and screaming, saying that he would beat Lin Lan, the shrew, to death.
Soon, Old Han and Big Brother Han got the news and ran over from the field. They saw a pool of blood on the ground and Han Jinbao rolling there crying.
The old Korean leader quickly asked what was going on.
Han was so angry that he yelled, "Old Four, why are you such a jerk?"
Han Jinbao cried out, "Brother, am I not your biological brother? That bitch broke my leg."
Old Han was too busy to care about anything else. "Boss, get your mom to get some money. Let's go to the county hospital."
Brother Han looked around and was shocked to see the blood. "What's going on? Who is bleeding?"
Han Jinbao immediately screamed even louder, as if he was bleeding.
"Boss, quickly carry Jinbao back home!" Old Han was anxious.
Over there, Lin Lan and the others took Sanwang to the infirmary. The barefoot doctor was also at work. He hurried back to clean the wound, but he didn't dare to bandage it casually. "Let's go to the commune health center. We need to take out the debris inside."
Soon the old branch secretary, the team leader and the security director arrived and quickly arranged for a mule to take Sanwang to the commune.
Han Erge also ran over and shouted, "Secretary, hurry up and arrange a mule to take our Jinbao to the county hospital. His toes are broken!"
Han Yongfang spat, "Go away! Why didn't you kill that little turtle?"
Han Erge: "Master, why are you still cursing?"
Han Yongfang snorted, "It's fine if the child is fine, but if there is any problem, that little idiot will suffer."
They harnessed the cart and carried Sanwang onto it. Just then, Brother Han and Old Han came over carrying Han Jinbao on a door panel and said, "Let's go together." Old Mrs. Han followed behind unsteadily, dragging her half-wrapped feet and calling out to them tenderly.
Lin Lan grabbed the whip and whipped Han Jinbao on the door without thinking: "Get away, get out of here!"
The whip with a braided end hit Old Han's head, causing him to gasp in pain.
Old Mrs. Han suddenly went crazy and tried to grab Lin Lan, "You troublemaker..." But Dong Huaihua stopped her, "Auntie, stop making trouble." What's going on? You don't know anything about it.
The old Korean said, "Borrow another car, borrow another car."
Han Yongfang couldn't just ignore it, so he asked someone to harness a car and take Han Jinbao on board.
They were not far from the commune, and when they arrived at the clinic it was not yet dark, but the doctors were all off work, so they had to find the doctor on duty.
Old Mrs. Han cried and asked the doctor to see her son first. Her son's toes were black and swollen, and she was afraid that the bones were broken.
"Get in line!" The doctor said coldly, and told us to bring the child in quickly.
He first treated Sanwang's wound, cleaned out the debris inside with tweezers, and then rinsed it with saline.
Watching the blood mixed with water flowing down, Lin Lan felt distressed and guilty.
She hugged Sanwang and said, "When you get better, I'll buy you some candy. Eat as many as you want."
The doctor said sternly: "Eat less sugar! It's not good for wound healing!"
Lin Lan sniffed, "Does Sanwang feel any pain?"
Sanwang grinned, "It doesn't hurt, Mom, it just felt like a needle prick at the beginning, and now it's numb and cool."
Lin Lan said, "Doctor, please take good care of it. Don't leave a scar. It's only this small. If it grows into a big scar, I won't be able to tell my wife about it."
Crowd: …
The doctor paused in cleaning the wound, then started again.
Sanwang cried out in pain.
Doctor: "Do it more cleanly, it won't leave scars easily."
Lin Lan advised Sanwang, "Don't be afraid of the pain. It will hurt for a while, and you won't have to worry about it in the future."
It will leave a scar, which is so ugly.
This time Sanwang felt the pain, tears welled up in his eyes, "Oh my god, it hurts so much."
The doctor cleaned it, bandaged it, and prescribed some oral medicine. "Just change the medicine at this time tomorrow."
Dong Huaihua said, "Doctor, can you please ask the barefoot doctor in the village to help me change my job after I get the medicine?"
The doctor nodded, "Yes."
Lin Lan asked the doctor and found out that the problem was not serious and there was no injury to any vital parts. The barefoot doctor could bandage it, so she breathed a sigh of relief.
But my son has lost so much blood, we can't just let it go.
Old lady Han was still howling outside, so the doctor asked him to come in.
Han Yongfang's youngest son Han Qingyun helped to carry Sanwang. When he went out, Han Jinbao was no longer lying on the door panel, but sitting on a bench outside.
He glared at Lin Lan fiercely.
Lin Lan rushed over and pinched him with her claws again, and wanted to pinch him a second time but was blocked by Old Lady Han.
However, there were already three more bloody marks on Han Jinbao's cheeks.
Old Mrs. Han started crying again out of pain and wanted to hit Lin Lan, but someone quickly pulled her away.
Old Han was also very distressed. He couldn't say anything in front of so many people. He said to Lin Lan, "Go home quickly. The child is still waiting at home."
Brother Han looked guilty and said, "Is Sanwang okay, Lao San's family?"
When my third brother passed away, he was still looking after him, and yet this happened.
Lin Lan said calmly: "Sanwang is fine, but he is in trouble."
Something big is happening!
Han Yongfang was originally worried that Sanwang had been stabbed in the head seriously, but now that he saw that his life was not in danger, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The group hurried back to the village, and it was already dark when they got home.
Lin Lan thanked everyone, Han Qingyun helped send Sanwang home, and then said goodbye and left.
Mrs. Han was here with the children. Erwang and Maisui had already prepared the meal and took Xiaowang to eat.
Seeing them come back, Han's sister-in-law breathed a sigh of relief, "Sister-in-law, is Sanwang okay?"
Lin Lan touched Sanwang's head and said, "It's okay, but Sanwang needs nutrition. I have to catch two chickens to lay eggs for him."
She asked Sanwang to lie down, asked Xiaowang to go to sleep as well, asked Erwang and Mai Sui to keep watch, and asked where Dawang was.
Erwang hesitated for a moment, "Big brother said he went to the county town again and told us not to look for him. We don't know what happened."
Da Wang was familiar with the route to the county town, so Lin Lan was not worried about his safety. However, she was very disappointed that he was not at home when something like this happened. The child would probably have to wait for his father to come back and take care of him.
She carried a basket and said, "Sister-in-law, you should go and do your work. There are children at home too."
Mrs. Han: “It’s okay.”
Lin Lan still took her away.
Old Mrs. Han, Old Man Han, and the two older brothers all went to the commune clinic, leaving only the second sister-in-law Han, Jin Yu, and a few children at home.
Han Jinyu was losing her temper, scolding Lin Lan, and pointing at the niece of the eldest wife who was doing the laundry for her, "Don't be as lazy and bad as your Third Lady. If she wasn't in our family, she would have been divorced long ago if she were in another family. Look at how dirty you are..."
Hearing her scolding, Mrs. Han, who came in with Lin Lan, changed her expression.
Lin Lan first went to the chicken coop and took out three laying hens, tied their legs with hemp ropes, and then threw them into the basket.
When the family was divided, she didn't want the chicken. Why shouldn't she want it?
She took the basket and placed it at the gate, then went into the house.
When the people in the house heard the rooster crowing, they all came out to ask what was going on.
Lin Lan watched Han Jinyu come out, walked around and raised her hand to slap her, "You little devil who eats my things and spends my money, and you slander me behind my back, how can you be so mean!"
"Ah—you hit someone!"
Han Jinyu screamed and dodged here and there, trying to fight back but was no match for Lin Lan.
Mrs. Han stood aside with her hands in her sleeves, watching the commotion coldly. Her children naturally did not go to help and hid behind their mother.
Han's second sister-in-law still wanted to help, but her efforts were all in vain and she did not dare to confront Lin Lan head-on.
This mad woman even killed herself, let alone others.
Lin Lan beat Han Jinyu up, then rushed into the east room with a basket to pick up eggs.
"When the family business was divided, I didn't get any eggs or chickens. I wanted to leave them for you to eat. But I didn't know that the fourth son would be such a jerk. He actually beat my son and wouldn't let me live? I've said before that whoever wouldn't let me live, I'll make him suffer for the rest of his life!!"
After picking up the eggs, she was still angry. She saw an axe hanging on the wall. She stepped on a stool and pulled the axe down. She held it in her hand, furious.
"You can't do that, Old Third Family!"
Han's second sister-in-law was frightened and thought Lin Lan was going to smash the pot. How could she eat if the pot was broken?
She didn't dare to stop him, so she looked at Sister-in-law Han and said, "Sister-in-law, please persuade him. You have to eat too."
However, Han's sister-in-law knew that Lin Lan would not make a fuss, so she didn't care at all. There was such a pool of blood in the yard, and she was horrified just looking at it. If it was her own child, she would go crazy.
Han Jinyu ran out screaming, shouting all over the street: "Murder, Lin Lan murdered!"
Lin Lan looked at her back as she ran away and sneered, then walked into the east room, swung the axe and chopped at the coat closet!
