The more Liu Cuihua thought about it, the angrier she became. When she got home, she told Lu Zhendong, Lu Jianguo and Li Xiuying about the incident with exaggeration. The whole family was immediately in an uproar.
"The Lin family is going too far! What rights do they have to ask the third son's wife for money?" Lu Zhendong said with a frown and an angry look on his face.
"That's right. The third brother worked so hard outside to make contributions, but we didn't get any benefits at all. But they came here and wanted to share the credit. It's impossible!" Lu Jianguo also echoed.
Liu Cuihua sat aside and said angrily: "I raised my son with great difficulty, this money cannot be given away to outsiders. If the third daughter-in-law really gave money to the Lin family, where will our Lu family put our face in the future?"
In this family, Li Xiuying was probably the only one who was silently happy. She was thinking about how she could use the Lin family's help to make Lin Yuexi suffer some loss.
Seeing that Li Xiuying remained silent, Liu Cuihua knew what she was thinking, so she said to her, "Li Xiuying, you have been silent for a long time. Are you happy that the Lin family is here to punish the third daughter-in-law to vent your anger? I tell you, it's impossible.
We can’t let the Lin family take even a penny of our Lu family’s money.
Besides, the third brother has already said that as long as I don’t cause trouble for his wife, he will treat me as a filial piety. If I help Lin Yuexi this time, maybe the third brother will increase the amount of filial piety for me…”
"Mom, I don't have any. Since I'm helping Lin Yuexi, I can let my third brother give you more money as a tribute, so I'll help you deal with the Lin family..."
After saying that, he added aggrievedly, "Mom, should we go tell the second son this time? His family is the closest to the third son's family, and he benefits the most from the third son."
After hearing what Li Xiuying said, Liu Cuihua curled her lips and said, "The couple in the second brother's family are very smart. Without you telling me, they must have heard the news a long time ago. They will definitely not sit idly by. After all, the third brother has made a name for himself now, and they are counting on him to help them more."
As they were talking, they heard footsteps outside. It turned out that Lu Jianmin and Wang Lijuan also heard the news and hurried over.
As soon as he entered the door, Lu Jianmin said anxiously: "Mom, I just heard about the Lin family. How can this be allowed? If my third brother's wife is bullied by the Lin family, what will my third brother think when he comes back? We can't let the Lin family succeed."
Wang Lijuan also echoed: "That's right, mother, after all, the third brother is your son, you must not let the third brother's wife be bullied by the Lin family."
Liu Cuihua looked at Lu Jianmin and Wang Lijuan who came over and nodded, saying, "You came at the right time. We are discussing how to deal with the Lin family. We can't be careless about this matter. If the third brother's wife is wronged, the third brother will definitely blame us when he comes back."
Lu Jianmin frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "Mom, I think we should let Lijuan tell Lin Yuexi that the Lin family is planning to come to our house to ask for money, and ask her to be on guard. If the Lin family really comes, let Ziyan and Xiyun tell us, so that we can handle them alone..."
Lu Zhendong thought about it and felt that Lu Jianmin was right, so he asked Wang Lijuan to remind Lin Yuexi first and told her not to be afraid, because the Lu family was on her side this time.
After the family had discussed it, Wang Lijuan waited for Lin Yuexi to return from the township clinic and then went to her house.
Wang Lijuan came to Lin Yuexi's house and saw Lin Yuexi drying herbs in the yard. She walked up to her and said softly, "Third sister-in-law, I just heard about the Lin family. Your stepmother is not a good person. I'm afraid she won't let it go. She will come to your house in the next few days to ask for filial piety money. You have to be careful. If the Lin family really comes to cause trouble, you can let Ziyan or Xiyun notify us and we will come right over."
Lin Yuexi stopped what she was doing, raised her head, eyes full of gratitude: "Second sister-in-law, thank you for coming to tell me. Li Sangru is really shameless, instigating my father to come to our house. Forget it! Don't worry, I'm not that easy to bully. If it really doesn't work, I'll let Zi Yan and Xi Yun come to you..."
Wang Lijuan patted Lin Yuexi on the shoulder and comforted her, "Don't worry too much, Third Sister-in-law. Although our Lu family has some bumps and bruises at ordinary times, we are definitely united in such a big thing. You have also contributed a lot to the family in the past few years, and we have seen it all."
Lin Yuexi nodded slightly, smiled bitterly and said, "Second sister-in-law, I feel much more at ease with your support. I suffered a lot of grievances in the Lin family before. I thought that after I got married, they would not come to torment me, but I didn't expect that they would still not let me go."
"Don't think about those bad things. What's past is past. Now that my third brother is promising and you have good medical skills, life will get better and better."
Wang Lijuan smiled and said, "By the way, has your third brother written to you recently? Is everything going well for him in the military academy?"
When Lin Yuexi mentioned her husband, a hint of tenderness emerged on her face: "He wrote to say that everything was fine, that he was studying very hard over there, and that he had made many like-minded friends. He told me to take good care of myself and the children at home and not to worry about him."
Wang Lijuan's eyes revealed a trace of envy: "Third brother is so motivated, and you are so capable, you are really a good couple. Well, I won't stay any longer, you should be careful. If there is any situation, be sure to inform us in time."
The two chatted for a while, and then Wang Lijuan said goodbye and went back.
At the same time, at the Lin family, Li Sangru, who was sneaky, greedy and naughty, said to her eldest son who had just returned: "You don't have to go to work tomorrow. We are going to ask Lin Yuexi for filial piety money, and you can go too..."
Lin Dashan said, "Mom, Lin Yuexi's money is all sent back by Lu Laosan from the army, how can she make the decision..."
"What do you know? Lin Yuexi is very rich now. Not only does she work in the village clinic, but she also receives an allowance from Lu Laosan.
I heard that this Lu Lao San treated her well. He gave her all his allowance without keeping a penny, not even giving it to his own mother. And now her house is very well-furnished, with all kinds of new furniture and so on. "
Lin Dashan has been working in the town with his uncle during this period.
He was tall and strong, and there happened to be a need for someone to mix mud, carry bricks and do manual labor to build a house in the town, so his uncle asked him to do the job.
I get 50 cents for a day's work, and I get a meal at noon. It's the off-season now, so I'm just sitting around doing nothing. I'll take every penny I earn.
Lin Dashan was so tired every day that he didn't want to work anymore. Besides, the house of that family would be completed tomorrow, which would be the day with the most work. When he heard his mother say that she didn't want him to go, he happily agreed.
He knew from a young age that Lin Yuexi was not her mother's biological child, and he had no feelings for her at all.
When Li Sangru was rubbing her, he helped her and often bullied her when no one was around.
Lin Dashan had the same idea as his mother: Lin Yuexi was nothing in their eyes, and everything she had should belong to them.
Lin Yuexi lives so well in the Lu family, but she doesn't send them anything. This is outrageous.
