Tang Hehua was waiting outside and asked the child to come in to find out the news. She soon learned that her eldest brother had gone home and taken out 160 yuan to compensate Lin Mei, and that his whole family had given Lin Mei gifts and apologies. Lin Lan was even more unreasonable and bullied others by relying on her man's strength.

Tang Hehua couldn't stand it anymore. She rushed into the house without caring about her dignity and pointed at Lin Mei and said, "Dad, why is it that we apologized to her and she went back to her parents' home and beat me without saying a word?"

Seeing her come in, Lin Lan's eyes lit up. She was just about to ask Tang Laya to send you back and not allow you to go back to your parents' home, but you came instead.

Lin Lan: "You're just in time. Come here and let's talk it out in front of your parents."

When Lin Mei saw Tang Hehua coming back, she shouted outside, "Lin Leshui, get out of here!"

There were neighbors outside who wanted to come and see what was going on, but they were glared at by Tang Laoqi, who was hanging his arms in pain and said, "What are you looking at?" Those people were so scared that they left quickly for fear of being beaten by him. They all knew that the Lin family had a ferocious and evil relative-in-law who was not to be trifled with.

Zheng Yaozu pushed Lin Erdi over and said, "Hurry up and show it to your father-in-law. This guy was beaten out of anger. He is different from us."

Tang Hehua was a bit overbearing in her relationship with her husband, but in the past she would not let him get on the bed, or pull his ears, but she had never spanked him like she did today. Today she was bullied by Lin Lan and beaten by Lin Mei, so she vented all her anger on Lin Leshui, so she beat Lin Leshui much harder than Lin Mei beat her.

At this moment, Lin Leshui's face was severely swollen, with purple marks all over it, and there were also marks on his neck, back of his hands and wrists from being beaten by Old Madam Lin.

Lin Leshui was beaten badly today.

Tang Laoya's eyes widened, "Hehua, you naughty kid, how could you hit your aunt like that?"

Before, the daughter came home and only showed her swollen face to her family. He thought that Lin Leshui and the daughter had a fight, and the daughter was beaten by her son-in-law. Then the children started to make trouble, so he led his nephews and nieces to support the daughter and ask her father-in-law why she was beaten like this. Now it looks like the two of them were fighting each other, and the aunt was beaten more severely.

"Lotus, what's going on? Tell the truth!" Tang Laoya's eyes widened.

Tang Hehua wiped her tears aggrievedly and started saying that the children were fighting and she went over to scold them, but her third sister came over and beat her without asking any questions.

She pointed at Lin Mei: "She hit me."

Sanwang was outside with his brothers, listening attentively. When he found out it was time to retell what happened, he immediately rushed over and said, "I'll do it."

He repeated what happened word for word, clearly stating who said what and what they said.

Lin Lan glanced at Tang Hehua coldly, "You don't dare to confront me face to face, and take your anger out on my child?"

To settle the account of the report, let's settle this account.

Tang Hehua saw that her parents were captured by them. She couldn't beat them or reason with them, so she started to make a fuss, crying and making trouble, "You guys squeezed me out, you gave New Year gifts to others but not to me."

At this time, Xiao Xin also came over with his brothers and sisters from his grandmother's family. His face was swollen from crying. He pointed at Lin Lan and cried, "Fourth Aunt is partial! You used to say that you loved me the most and hated Xiao Wang the most, saying that he was a waste and should be thrown away. Why do you give him your good things instead of me? You don't love me, but love him now?"

Lin Mei sneered at Tang Hehua, "You still say that I beat you, am I wrong to beat you? Your fourth sister was good to you before, but you were not grateful. Now that she is good to her own son, you are taking advantage of you? That's all you taught your child. If Xiaoxin had more children, would they say these things? You really know how to teach!"

Lin Lan felt a little bit guilty when looking at Xiao Xin, but more of a sense of guilt towards her own child.

This pot was not hers to take, but she couldn't say it out loud. After all, nominally she was responsible for everything, as it was she who fueled Tang Hehua's appetite. She wasn't afraid of what Tang Hehua would do, nor was she afraid of what others would think, but she was a little worried about Han Qingsong and the children.

Would he think she was too much, caring only about her nephew and not her own son? And Dawang, that was what made him angry in the past. He complained that she was always looking for death and never talked properly, and that she only cared about her nephew and not her son. And Xiaowang, would he have a grudge against her? He didn't understand when he was young, but now that he's grown up, would he blame her? Mai Sui, Erwang and Sanwang were young at that time, but they also understood a lot of things. Although they didn't say it, it didn't mean they didn't have any thoughts in their hearts.

Lin Lan clenched her fists subconsciously.

After shaking hands and making peace, Han Qingsong stood next to Lin Lan. When she heard Xiaoxin blaming her and her face changed and the corners of her lips tightened, he stretched out his hand and put it on her shoulder and squeezed it gently, indicating that she didn't need to be sad and he wouldn't worry about it.

Lin Lan felt a warm current in her heart. He believed her. The corners of her lips slowly relaxed and she smiled slightly.

The children can't stand others bullying their mother. Although she used to treat Xiaoxin better than her own family, she changed her ways later! A mother who admits her mistakes and corrects them is still a good mother!

Sanwang rushed out immediately, pointed at Xiaoxin and said, "You were well behaved before, and my mother said she loved you the most. Now you are not well behaved, so of course my mother doesn't love you anymore!" He patted Xiaowang and laughed, "Now my brother Xiaowang is the best and the most obedient, so of course my mother loves him the most!"

Xiao Xin was stunned. Why was he not behaving well? Grandma and mother taught that Fourth Aunt was wrong, but they didn't say that they were wrong.

Mai Sui also sneered, "How funny, relatives are just being polite when they say this, who would take it seriously?"

Erwang also agreed with her, "We sometimes say that someone's mother is so nice, but we don't want to change mothers."

It's fine if the children take it seriously, but do adults take it seriously too? But Tang Hehua looks like she really takes it seriously. Even if she takes it seriously, you should also show your true feelings accordingly. My mother is good to you, and you should be good to her, but the truth is that you only want her things and don't care about her as a person.

Xiaowang's deep fear was aroused again, and he suddenly grabbed Lin Lan's hand, fearing that Lin Lan would want brother Xiaoxin instead of him again.

Lin Lan felt his nervousness and felt a pang in her heart. She held her son on her lap and said softly, "Of course, mother likes the good boy Xiaowang the most."

Xiaowang immediately smiled sweetly, happily hugged her neck and put his face against hers.

Xiao Xin became even more jealous and started crying and shouting.

Tang Laoya was annoyed, "What are you making a fuss about!" He glared at Tang Hehua, "It's all because of you teaching the child blindly. If you don't love Xiao Xin Gang, I wouldn't care if you love your nephew."

Tang Hehua just looked at the old lady.

Tang Laoya scolded the old woman again, "You taught me all this!" If the child has such thoughts, it must be taught by adults. If adults don't teach children, what will they know? The old woman must be to blame.

Old Mrs. Tang huddled to one side, looking aggrieved and pitiful, and she just wiped away her tears without saying a word.

Since she knew that she couldn't confront her man head-on, she learned to arm herself with her soft side, and was good at using tears and weakness to gain sympathy for herself. Because when she was like this, her daughters and sons would feel sorry for her, and her man would not do anything to her.

Sure enough, seeing her shrinking and pitiful appearance, Tang Laoya had to apologize on behalf of the old woman, "My dear girl, it is my fault for not being able to discipline her properly. I will never do that again."

Old Mrs. Lin just looked at the two young ladies, hoping that they would be just about right and not embarrass her in-laws, after all, they would have to interact with each other in the future.

Tang Hehua cried extremely sadly. She had never seen her father bow his head to others like this. In Tangjiaji or even in the surrounding area, who dared to do this to her father?

Lin Lan said, "Master Tang, you are too polite. Men are busy at work all day and don't care about the women at home. I have to ask the aunt and the young bride if it is really wrong. Should everyone live a good life in the future?"

Old Mrs. Tang sobbed, "My child, I was wrong. I was confused. I know I was wrong."

Tang Hehua was ashamed and angry, and she started to cry loudly, "You all bully me, you all bully me! I asked you to support me, why do you come together to bully me?"

Tang Laoya was embarrassed. If it weren't for Han Qingsong, he might have been able to get away with it with a fist fight. But now the situation was stronger than the person, so he had to apologize, and apologize sincerely. Anyway, he had already apologized heavily for the report, so this was not a big deal. Moreover, Tang Laoya felt that this beautiful and reasonable lady would not ask for money for this matter. If she didn't want money, it would be easy to deal with. It would be okay to let the lady kowtow and apologize.

He glared at her and said, "If you keep talking like that, I'll give you a slap in the face!"

Tang Hehua was crying, all the tears she had cried since she was a child were flowing out. She turned to look at her brothers, and they also said they were helpless.

Although some of Tang Laoya's sons were still not convinced, they were very convinced of Han Qingsong. They admired strength and the strong, and liked to solve problems by strength. When they met someone stronger than themselves, they would naturally admire him.

Second brother Lin quickly stepped forward to pull Tang Hehua, and bowed to Lin Lan and Lin Mei, "Third sister and fourth sister, it's all our fault. We apologize to you."

Lin Lan said, "What's the relationship between us? At worst, we can never have anything to do with each other again. I just want you to get along better in this courtyard. Parents, don't be too partial, and your brothers and sisters-in-law shouldn't be too demanding. Think more about everyone and don't just take advantage without suffering any loss."

The second brother Lin nodded quickly, "That's what my sister taught me."

Tang Hehua apologized to Lin Mei and Lin Lan in a frustrated manner: "Third sister, I was wrong. I shouldn't have tried to get involved in your business. Fourth sister, I was wrong. I shouldn't have deliberately avoided you."

Lin Mei: "Forget it, your father has already compensated me for my crime. You need to recognize your mistakes regarding your fourth sister."

Tang Hehua said reluctantly, "I won't do that again. I still remember how good Fourth Sister was to me, and I won't dare to complain again."

Lin Lan: "You always go back to your mother's house to complain and ask your brother to beat you up..."

Tang Laoya yelled, "Don't even think about it in the future. Be well behaved in your husband's house, be filial to your parents-in-law, respect your elder sister-in-law and elder sisters, and do the housework without embarrassing me!" He also said to Mrs. Lin and elder sister-in-law, "Mother-in-law, elder sister-in-law, if Hehua makes a mistake in the future, just beat and scold her, don't worry about my face, I, Tang Laoya, will not stand up for her. In her natal family, her mother didn't educate her well, so when she comes to her husband's house, her mother-in-law will just discipline her, teach her in any way that is appropriate, and I, Old Tang, will never say no. I'm also saying this today, I will never stand up for my daughter in the future, no matter what the matter is, the husband's family has the final say."

Mrs. Lin immediately stopped while she was ahead: "Don't worry, my dear relatives. They are just good children who made mistakes due to confusion. It will be fine once they correct it. We have finally married a daughter-in-law, and we will still love her as much as before."

Tang Hehua could only cry and say, "Fourth sister, I will never be willful and have a bad temper again. I will live a good life."

She can no longer control her parents-in-law and men, wuwu... She has no one to rely on, and her father has given her mother-in-law and sister-in-law a handle so that they can just scold her. She thinks that others will definitely be the same as her, and once she has no one to support her, they will definitely bully her. Thinking of being bullied by her mother-in-law, sister-in-law and sisters every day in the future, she is afraid and sad.

From now on, she can only live her life by depending on other people's wishes. How depressing that is. What status does she have in the family?

She didn't hate Lin Lan anymore, she was just afraid of Lin Lan. Although Lin Mei would hit people, Lin Lan was a smiling tiger. When her husband hit someone, she looked so proud. Her brothers were so powerful, but they were still kicked out by Han Qingsong.

Tang Hehua has always liked to seek support from her brother since she was a child. She was also instilled with the idea of ​​respecting the strong. Now that her brother has been defeated, she naturally respects him.

Now when she looked at Lin Lan, she felt like she was the head of the family, dignified and cold, and a single look from her made her tremble.

Seeing that everyone had forgiven them, Lin Erdi quickly pulled Tang Hehua back to the house.

Although he was beaten and had to pay gifts and apologize, he felt very happy in his heart. After all, he easily passed the test of his father-in-law. Moreover, his father-in-law actually smiled and talked to his parents, and even admitted his mistakes. From now on, Tang Hehua would never dare to beat him again, and would never dare to act rudely again.

Now, my father-in-law's eyes have become softer when he looks at me. He is no longer as scary as before, with a frown on his face and eyes wide open, as if he wanted to eat me up.

Haha, it’s worth getting beaten.

Tang Hehua felt guilty and grateful to her man at the moment. Everyone blamed her, and her father and brother didn't care, but he always protected her. Seeing the bruises on Lin's face caused by her beating, she couldn't help but feel distressed and guilty.

She held the second brother Lin's hand and sobbed, "Second brother, are you hurt? I was wrong. I will never hit you again."

With her backer collapsed, the formerly arrogant Tang Hehua was suddenly reduced to a bullied young wife.

Second brother Lin had to comfort her again.

In the main hall, Lin Lan had already dealt with the report, and Tang Hehua had also dealt with it, so she didn't get involved. She left the place to the old relatives to exchange feelings, after all, they still had to interact with each other on a daily basis.

She and Lin Mei walked out to the yard arm in arm to talk to their sisters.

Han Qingsong followed silently, and Zheng Yaozu immediately followed, "Brother-in-law, do you know how to play poker? Let's go play poker."

Han Qingsong: “No.” Seeing that the problem was solved, he went to hold Tang Laoqi’s arm without the other party asking for help.

Tang Laoqi's eyes turned red as he looked at his forearms that were numb, drooping and useless.

Han Qingsong patted him and said, "It will be fine in the evening."

Tang Laoqi held back his tears again.

Han Qingsong massaged Tang Lao San's chest after he was carried to the yard. Tang Lao San felt like he was alive again. "Thank you."

Han Qingsong: "Go back and lie down for two days, everything will be back to normal."

There are several old relatives in the main hall.

Tang Laoya said to him: "From now on, during the autumn wheat harvest, you will bring a brother to help the in-laws do the work for two days. Your sister and brother-in-law can't do it, and the in-laws and eldest brother can't do it either, so you can help me."

Old Lin immediately said no, his family could earn their own work points, and he could also weave mats and baskets. The village also raised fish, and his eldest grandson helped the brigade raise and catch fish to earn work points, so they could live a decent life.

Tang Laoya did not argue with him. Anyway, he would send his son to help for two days during the busy farming season. His son was capable and could do the work of Lin Leshui and his wife in half a day as well as they would take two days.

Tang Laoya's grandchildren and their daughters were still not satisfied. They squeezed aside and said they were beaten and wanted to settle the score with Sanwang and the others.

Tang Laoya's son has a similar temper to him. When encountering something, he gets angry and scares the other party first and then settles the score. He is like this regardless of whether the other party is right or wrong. He is also very domineering.

Tang Lao Er glared, "Who hit my child?"

Erwang, Sanwang, and Haonan stepped out and said, "We fought."

The Tang brothers were silent for a moment. Tang Er turned around and beat up his own child. "Don't you think it's shameful? They are younger and shorter than you. You still have the nerve to go home and complain after being beaten. Why don't you just jump into the dam and turn yourself into a turtle?"

All the Wangwangs: …………

The level of swearing is really consistent.

Even though some people were bleeding and beaten, the matter was resolved satisfactorily. Tang Laoya felt that from then on he could establish a relationship with Director Han and had a say, which was not a loss.

After all this trouble, half of the afternoon had passed and the sun was setting.

Mrs. Lin said to Mr. Tang, "Since you are here, why not have a meal and a drink?"

Old Lin glared at his wife. If the five old men stayed to eat, they would definitely become poor.

Old Man Tang waved his hand and said to his eldest son, "Okay, go get a piece of meat and carry 20 kilograms of flour. We came in a hurry today and didn't bring any gifts for my in-laws." He waved his hand again and told the other sons to take the old lady home quickly, "Let's go, let's go."

Don played the role of a courier for a day today, and also worked as a thug who was beaten down. At his father's order, he ran away again.

Tang Lao Er carried the old lady on his back and followed closely with his younger brothers.

Mrs. Lin even said she would invite them to dinner.

Old man Tang shook his thick neck, his gray hair flying everywhere. He said proudly, "Mother-in-law, they don't need to eat. I'm not bragging about these brats. It's not something that ordinary people can do to raise them like cattle."

It is said that young boys make their fathers poor, especially in the past few years, when children were extremely hungry and many of them did not grow tall. But he raised his sons to be big and strong, so Tang Laoya was naturally very proud.

Old Lin couldn't stand his bragging. He was clearly saying that his two sons were too skinny and not as strong as his son.

Old man Tang covered his face with a wine cup and gave gifts to his parents-in-law to apologize.

Old Mrs. Lin said that they were all family and didn't want to argue about it, but Old Man Lin wanted him to leave as soon as possible and not stay any longer.

Old Lin has now realized that his fourth son-in-law is the most useful. He said nothing. Just standing there, the wolf-like father and son of the Tang family would be scared. If it were to be delayed, would he reason with you? Would he apologize? He was conscienceless and closed his eyes to support his daughter!

He was afraid that his wife had been bought off, so he kept winking at her.

Of course Mrs. Lin is not stupid, but you can't divorce your young daughter-in-law and still have a good relationship? It later proved that it was necessary to have a good relationship. Not only were the Tang family father and son strong enough to help them do some work as if it was just a play, but their son and daughter-in-law also lived a down-to-earth life.

Sisters Lin Lan and Lin Mei were chatting while the children were having fun in the yard.

Zheng Yaozu was afraid that Han Qingsong would be bored, so he dragged him to play poker with his brother-in-law and uncles. "It's just to kill time in the first month of the year. It's not against the rules if you don't make money."

In the end, everyone else's head was full of grass, but Han Qingsong's head was clean.

Zheng Yaozu: ...Didn’t you say you couldn’t? ! !

Han Qingsong: I really don’t know how, I was just typing randomly.

…

…

100.

Xiaoxin was staring blankly in the yard with a dazed look on his face.

Grandpa and grandma were getting along well, as were my parents, my aunts were chatting animatedly, and my brothers and sisters were having fun, but no one paid any attention to him.

He began to cry silently, until his nose started to run. The more he thought about it, the sadder he became. Finally, he decided to just leave.

He took his small towel, wiped his tears and wanted to run away from home.

Seeing his silly look, Sanwang called him, "Xiao Xin, do you want to play siege with us?"

The siege game is very simple. Draw a frame as a city, raise soldiers in the city, and fight according to the rules. The soldier must stand on one leg and lift the other leg with both hands. The two sides collide with each other. The one whose lifted foot falls to the ground loses.

When Xiaoxin heard that he was being asked to play, he ran over happily and said, "Yes."

Children are vindictive but also tolerant. As long as others apologize and they forgive, they can reconcile and still be good friends.

Sanwang: "If you want to play, you have to contribute. How much money do you have?"

Xiao Xin immediately took out a penny and said, "This much."

Sanwang took it and said, "Join our share and give out a piece of candy." He handed Xiaoxin a piece of milk candy. This kind of candy was brought back from the county by Han Qingsong, and it cost about two cents a piece.

Xiaoxin happily peeled it off and stuffed it into his mouth, "It's delicious, and tastes like milk."

Sanwang: "Will you bully my brother again in the future?"

Xiaoxin: "Don't bully."

Sanwang: "My mother used to be nice to you, but later she wasn't so nice to you anymore. Do you know why?"

Shin-chan shook his head.

Haonan laughed and said, "Stupid! Because you are not well behaved. If you treat your brother Xiaowang well, my fourth aunt will definitely treat you well!"

Xiao Xin is not stupid. Once he recognizes the reality, he will quickly turn to the organization. He immediately apologizes to Xiao Wang, "Xiao Wang, I will treat you well in the future."

Xiaowang is a child who doesn't bear grudges. "Mom said that a child who admits his mistakes and corrects them is a good child. I forgive you."

Haonan then said, "Only if you do this will we allow you to join our bald team."

Now Shin-chan also wants to shave his head.

Erwang laughed: "Don't get a haircut in the first month of the lunar year, as it will bring good luck to your uncle." It is not allowed to talk about death during the New Year, so people usually use similar sounds instead.

Xiao Xin immediately covered his head. Thinking of his uncles, his face turned pale. If he shaved his head, he would be beaten to death. He looked at Er Wang and the others nervously, "You guys don't shave your heads either. I don't want my dad..."

The children laughed.

Sanwang: "Stupid, if my uncle really died from having his head shaved, then everyone would be left without a father or an uncle."

Mai Sui also said: "This is probably because some stingy uncle didn't give his nephew money for the New Year, so the nephew wanted to find a way to humiliate his uncle. I say, in the future, we can't say that if you don't shave your head in the first month of the lunar year, you will be in trouble for your uncle. If you say that if you don't shave your head in the first month of the lunar year, you will become a stupid cow, and I guarantee that no one will shave their head."

After drinking two cups of wine, Tang Laoya said goodbye and sincerely invited Lin Lan and Lin Mei to visit his house when they were free. After he left, the eldest and second sisters Lin also said goodbye and went home.

It was agreed that Lin Lan would stay with the children for two days, but as Lin Mei was afraid that they would not be able to sleep well, she took Mai Sui and Qiaoqiao to her home. Hao Nanlian stayed with Sanwang and Xiaowang, while Han Qingsong took Dawang and Erwang home.

Although Han Qingsong agreed, Lin Lan could see that he was a little disappointed. She didn't point it out but pretended not to know, but she laughed in her heart.

Xiao Xin and San Wang were already sticky after playing for a while. When sending Lin Mei off, he asked, "Aunt San, I want to go to your house in two days too."

Lin Mei smiled and said, "Okay, come over. Third Aunt will make you something delicious." Lin Mei repeatedly urged Han Qingsong to bring Da Wang and Er Wang to her home, and Han Qingsong agreed.

Xiao Xin was very happy and took Xiao Wang's hand, "Xiao Wang, can I come to your house in the future?"

Xiao Wang: "Let's go and ask your fourth aunt."

Xiao Xin took his hand and asked Lin Lan.

Lin Lan smiled. All children are cute. As long as they correct themselves, they will be good children. "Of course Fourth Aunt welcomes you."

Xiaoxin was completely happy.

Tang Hehua was hiding aside because she was shy, and she secretly listened to Lin Lan and the others being nice to Xiao Xin again, and she felt quite happy in her heart.

When cooking in the evening, Tang Hehua took the initiative to help Sister Lin, "Sister, let me help you light the fire."

Sister-in-law Lin looked at her and said, "What a good relationship. We don't have a girl to help with housework. I would be happy if you could be my sister."

Seeing that her sister-in-law did not bully her, Tang Hehua felt a little happier.

Mrs. Lin would naturally not bully her. In the past, when Tang Hehua was arrogant, she didn't dare to do anything to Mrs. Lin. Now that she was like a young wife, Mrs. Lin was naturally not afraid.

At dinner time in the evening, Tang Hehua diligently set the table for everyone, and Old Lady Lin, Lin Lan, and the eldest sister-in-law served everyone one by one.

Lin Lan saw that she was genuinely happy and didn't seem to be forcing herself to smile, and she admired her ability to adjust herself in such a short time. As long as she could live a good and stable life, Lin Lan naturally wouldn't care about it anymore.

Several children over there were also muttering. Xiao Wang said, "Xiao Xin, you can't read. You can't even play some games."

Children in the Lin family usually go to primary school for a few years and can read, but Xiaoxin didn't want to go to school before because his grandmother and mother said that going to school was useless. Old Mrs. Lin said it twice, but Tang Hehua didn't listen. But when the child said it, Xiaoxin was convinced and told his grandmother that he wanted to go to school.

After discussing it with his family, he decided that since he is eight years old this year, it would be just the right time for him to go to school in the fall.

Seeing her daughter-in-law and grandson getting better and better, Mrs. Lin felt very moved. She couldn't help but talk to her old man about what they did wrong and what they needed to correct so that they could do better in the future.

Old Lin said, "Just one thing, just don't be biased."

Old Madam Lin hit him, "You said I'm biased? This is all passed down from your family. Don't you remember how your mother was biased?"

Her late mother-in-law was very powerful. When the daughters of the family complained about their mother-in-law and sisters-in-law, she would beat them with a stick, making them so angry that they would not come back to her house. The daughters of the family who had married out were truly like water spilled out. Fortunately, she respected her daughters-in-law and daughters-in-law, and they were filial to her, so her later years were smooth. As for the daughters of the family, because they had no way out at their parents' home, they managed to control their husbands and teach their children well at their husbands' home, and learned to get along with their parents-in-law and sisters-in-law. Even if they were noisy and quarrelsome in the past few years, they had a good life when their children grew up. Now, two old sisters occasionally come back and talk to Mrs. Lin about the past and miss their late mother.

Old Lin said, "Although my mother has her own ways, I think my daughter-in-law and son-in-law are not bad either. It is better for them to live a good life."

Old Madam Lin laughed at him, "If it weren't for your fourth son-in-law's amazing ability, and if the Tang family hadn't come to embarrass you, you would have probably scolded your daughter-in-law and forbidden her from coming back."

Old Lin refused to admit it, "Not letting her return home is also for her own good, so she won't be bullied by the Tang family."

Although he was afraid of Tang Laoya, Tang Laoya didn't dare to hit him. He just came here to act wild.

Old Lin and Tang Laoya have some history. His grandmother's family and Tang Laoya's aunt's family are from the same village, and Old Lady Lin has the same surname as Tang's aunt. Back then, Tang Laoya saw that the girl was fair-skinned, pretty, and nimble, so he wanted his aunt to arrange a marriage for her. At the same time, Old Lin also liked the girl, and his mother had a sharp eye and acted quickly. As soon as she realized what her son was thinking, she immediately proposed marriage.

At that time, Lao Lin was also a handsome young man of about sixteen or seventeen, and he was a perfect match for the little girl. However, Tang Laoya began to grow abnormally at the age of fifteen, and when he was seventeen or eighteen, he was even more burly. His originally handsome appearance became more and more ferocious, even more terrifying than ugly, so the little girl naturally looked down on him.

In this way, Tang Laoya always disliked Lao Lintou. Although they were not in the same village and did not move around, he often picked trouble with him when he was young.

He was determined to find a daughter-in-law who was prettier than Old Lady Lin, but it was not easy to find one. He finally found the current old lady of the Tang family, but although she looked good, she had a lot of problems. Her eldest son was almost disabled by her. Fortunately, Old Lady Tang found her in time, so he took care of his son and let her take care of the household affairs.

At least he has many sons, so Old Man Lin is relieved of the pressure here, so he feels comfortable.

In fact, at the beginning, Tang Laoya not only had a crush on Brother Lin, but also on Lin Lan. He thought she was pretty and wanted to marry her to his son. He secretly asked someone to let the old lady Lin and her husband know about it, but Mrs. Lin resolutely refused and was determined not to let the children know.

Later, Tang Laoya changed his strategy and used some tricks to force his daughter to marry Lin Erdi.

Seeing that Lin Lan was handsome and reasonable, neither humble nor overbearing, Tang Laoya felt itchy again, thinking how great it would be if she was his daughter-in-law! He would go back and scold his sons and nephews, "Look at how ugly you all are!"

If he was as handsome as Han Qingsong, wouldn't he have married that pretty girl long ago? The old Tang family should also change their style.

He simply ignored what Lin Lan did in the first ten years after she got married. By the way, his wife was pretty and he was the ugly one, so he had to take the blame for his son's ugliness.

Lin Lan stayed at her mother's house for two nights, and then took Sanwang, Xiaowang and Xiaoxin to Lin Mei's house for two days. Han Qingsong and his two sons first went to Lin's house to pick up the mother and children, and then the whole family went to Lin Mei's house as guests.

Mrs. Zheng and her son were the happiest. Zheng Yaozu wanted to go to the county to take a family photo. Mrs. Zheng prepared delicious food and took out all the jelly saved from the New Year to entertain the little guests.

Lin Mei also discussed with Lin Lan, "We just want them to admit their mistakes and apologize, not for the money. Why don't you keep it for Xiao Wang's treatment?"

Lin Lan smiled and said, "This is what we should compensate you for. We paid for Xiao Wang's treatment ourselves. Besides, his father is an official, and he has comrades in the provincial capital. When we go to treat Xiao Wang, we can deduct most of the money. We can just pay for our own travel expenses and future medicines."

Lin Lan had always remembered this matter and would talk to Han Qingsong about it from time to time. Han Qingsong was also concerned about it and had written to his comrades to ask about it a long time ago. They helped to inquire about it, contacted the hospital and doctors, and also asked about medical benefits.

Lin Mei felt relieved to see that she had made arrangements.

Although she likes to make money from business, and sometimes she argues with others over a penny or a dime, she earns it with her own hard work, and she deserves it, not because she wants to covet other people's money. For example, she feels a little guilty about taking the money from the old Tang family, and feels uneasy and like it will bite her.

"Lan Huahua, if I give this money to my parents, will you be angry?"

Lin Lan laughed, "Why should I be angry? It was your idea to throw it away and burn it. I don't care. We were just trying to vent our anger and teach them a lesson. We asked the Tang family for money to teach them a lesson."

Lin Mei thought about it and decided to give the money to her parents. They could decide whether to give it to the second brother Lin or return it quietly to the Tang family.

Although Old Lin has many faults, he is very self-aware. He will not take money that is not his own, otherwise he will bite his hand!

Finally, Old Mrs. Lin thought of a solution. She would wait until the wheat harvest to see if Tang Hehua worked hard and the Tang family really came to help, and then she would slowly return the money to them.

On the ninth day of the first lunar month, the children went to visit Lin Lan's home again. Xiao Xin went with Lai Xi. He brought a small jar of lard for Fourth Aunt, saying that his grandmother gave it to him.

When she kept Qiaoqiao and the good boy at night, she would also let Xiaoxin stay for a few days, so that he could get closer to Sanwang and get rid of his little problems.

Xiao Xin is already 8 years old, and it is the time when he starts to stop clinging to his mother and likes to play with other children. There is no problem for him to leave Tang Hehua. In the end, he had so much fun playing with Haonan that he wanted to live in Sigu's house forever because Sigu's house is fun!

The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the day to visit relatives. After the fifteenth day, the first lunar month is over and people start to get busy.

Early in the morning, Lin Lan took the children to make glutinous rice balls and Yuanxiao and fed them with plenty of food. Then she sent Dawang to send Xiaoxin off, and Erwang to send Haonan and Qiaoqiao off.

Mai Sui went to play with the girls, and Sanwang also took Xiaowang out to play, so Lin Lan was left alone at home.

Without the chattering children and no longer having to rush around and shout at the top of her lungs, Lin Lan suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

I am most afraid of the air suddenly freezing.

She stood in the main room and forgot what she was going to do for a moment. Her mind was a little confused. Oh my god, was she going to get Alzheimer's disease early?

No, this is holiday syndrome. The originally lively and noisy suddenly became quiet, which made her feel uncomfortable and lost. She had this problem in her previous life. She liked to have fun with her close friends, but after the holiday, everyone returned to their own tracks and suddenly became quiet. She would feel at a loss for a moment and reluctant to leave.

Sometimes she would just cry for a while, but now she has a warm home and doesn't need to cry alone.

It's inevitable that she is a little hypocritical, and she couldn't help but complain about herself.

Han Qingsong happened to have just returned from Han Yongfang's house. As soon as he entered the room, he saw Lin Lan standing in the main room in a daze. Her dazed look made her originally clear eyes shrouded in a layer of mist, hiding the layers of starlight in them, and she looked confused and sad.

Sad?

Han Qingsong didn't understand why she was like this, she was fine in the morning.

He strode into the room, pulled her into his arms, and touched her head. "What's wrong?"

Lin Lan hugged his waist tightly, put her face against his chest, shook her head, and said in a wet voice, "Nothing." Her lost heart has been filled, and her fallen emotions have been backed up, so she will not feel sad anymore.

He lifted her chin and stared at the wetness in the corners of her eyes. "No?"

She smiled shyly, but a tear in her eye was squeezed out and slid down her cheek.

Just as she was about to wipe it off, he had already lowered his head and sucked away the tear, then kissed her passionately, leaving her no room to escape, squeezing the sadness and pretentiousness in her heart into bubbles that disappeared.

"Third, Third Brother..." Lin Lan panted and begged, trying to remind him that it was broad daylight and to be careful of someone coming over.

Han Qingsong refused to stop, "... Yeah."

He just wanted to keep kissing her, kissing her until she was completely powerless and limp in his arms, kissing her until her cheeks were as beautiful as roses and her entire skin was flushed with a warm and intoxicating color.
