Chapter 283 The Sin of Unfilial Piety
Baolinju was safe and sound, and the worried workers in Suijin Town continued to work.
Seeing that everything had returned to normal, Xue Zhuang and Hu Qing finally relaxed and disbanded the team that was maintaining order around the construction site.
Song Liyun only learned about this situation when she went to Lin Tao's house to ask a doctor to come and discuss the treatment plan.
A sense of heaviness rose in her heart. Only then did she realize that her safety no longer belonged to herself, nor was it just the three brothers and sisters of the Song family. It would also affect the stable lives of many families behind her.
Doctor Dai also heard about the Song family's affairs. He was a doctor and his only job was to treat illnesses.
When they arrived at Baolinju, Doctor Dai examined Song Zhenping's leg again and gave the brother and sister one good news and one bad news.
The good news is that Song Zhenping has been in good health over the past six months and can recover quickly after the operation.
The bad news is that Song Zhenping's health has recovered, and the difficulty of the operation has increased accordingly.
His legs used to be so skinny that you could almost see the deformed direction of the bones through the skin.
Now that the leg muscles are fully restored, reattaching the broken leg will require the doctor's medical skills.
This is, of course, not a big deal. Doctor Dai was hired at a high price because of his superb medical skills.
The three siblings were looking forward to the treatment the next day. Although the current treatment had some conflicts with Song Laoer's family, there was nothing they could do about it.
We can’t keep Doctor Dai for too long, as he has a clinic in the provincial capital.
If it is delayed for too long, once winter comes, wearing too thick clothes and not being able to exercise will be detrimental to the treatment.
While discussing leg treatment, in the inn in Qili County, Song Lao Er, with a red slap mark on his face, said fiercely: "Uncle Lizheng, you can agree to this or not, but I've made my words here. It's either her or me, and neither of us can win!"
He has been imprisoned, and Master Lin promised to send him back to Songfeng County for retrial, and now he has secretly released himself for a while.
Since I am not having a good life, the other three won't have an easy life either.
Song Lizheng was so angry that he beat his chest: "This is not something you can say in anger. You said it was unfilial and reported it to the authorities. Those children will have no future!"
Little Gu said sarcastically, "Uncle Lizheng, you are still pretending to be kind. If you hadn't sowed discord in my family, we wouldn't have agreed to the ungrateful person's labor service, that bitch wouldn't have run away, our family wouldn't have been robbed, and my daughter..."
As she spoke, she became overwhelmed with grief, tears streaming down her face. "My Shuirong would not have been ruined by that old pervert. This is all your fault!"
Song Lizheng's old face turned purple with anger, and what little Gu said sounded reasonable.
If he hadn't helped Song Liyun escape the marriage, Song Laoer's family could have used the money from selling their niece to find a good family for Song Shuirong, buy a good dowry, and let Xiaobao go to school.
They can continue to enslave the Song Zhenping brothers and make them work like slaves for their family.
Song Laoer and his family live in harmony, happiness and health!
But all this was built on the basis of sacrificing the eldest branch of the Song family. Now that the eldest branch is alone and the second branch is in decline, they blame others.
Song Lizheng didn't want to argue with this person who couldn't tell right from wrong, so he just shouted, "Those three kids are right!"
Song Laoer slammed the door and walked out. If this matter did not require the village head to testify, he would not have been slapped.
Little Gu wiped her tears and said, "Uncle Lizheng, they say that a husband and wife are bound by love for a hundred days. Although you and my mother-in-law have only proposed marriage, we can still be considered husband and wife.
Now that my mother-in-law is paralyzed on the kang and can't sit up, you should go and take care of her for a few days.
Even if it's inconvenient, you can give me some silver, one or two hundred coins a month to buy some meat to nourish your body.
She thinks of you day and night, and even said she wants to be buried with you after she dies, and be your husband and wife in the next life..."
"roll!"
Song Lizheng's face turned pale and he threw the tea bowl in his hand at little Gu who was talking nonsense.
Little Gu screamed and ran away with her head in her hands!
Mrs. Gu was paralyzed. At first, Song Lao Er said he would send it to his own home, saying that it was his mother's last wish.
The person is not dead, so what is a last wish? Besides, why should I support that shameless person?
In the past, the Song Zhenping brothers were controlled by them, and the villagers dared not speak out, let alone step forward to help.
If things go wrong, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will close the door and beat the child.
Now that the two brothers are gone, the villagers are taking revenge and grievances, and they will no longer tolerate anything.
As soon as Song Lao Er said that, the wife of the head of the village rushed to the door with her daughter-in-law, pressed the mother-in-law Xiao Gu on the kang and beat her up.
Mrs. Gu couldn't move and could only lie on the kang and curse.
Little Mrs. Gu had to deal with the village head's wife and her daughter-in-law alone, and was beaten black and blue.
People from Gujia Village came to the door, but were driven away by Xiaoshi Village.
The two villages fought fiercely and almost resulted in loss of life. It was the town’s public housing who stepped in to mediate and scolded Song Lao Er, asking him to pay money to apply ointment to the injured people from the two villages.
After this incident, Song Lao Er no longer dared to speak without restraint, and without the support of the young Gu family, he finally gave up the idea of stirring up trouble.
The village was at peace.
Now that there is no one else around, Xiao Gu is still using these words to disgust people.
Song Lizheng was groaning with anger. Song Dekui, who was trying hard to suppress the urge to hit someone, came forward to calm him down. "Dad, let's go tell Daping and the others. We're leaving now. Without you, Song Defu won't be able to sue the authorities."
Song Lizheng sighed with a bitter face: "You don't know, this Song Laoer is shameless and cowardly. He should be honest after being locked up and frightened. Now he wants to sue for being unfilial. It must be the person behind the scenes who instigated him.
Even if we walk, we may not be able to stop it. Alas! This is the only way we can try.
Third brother, you should go to Baolinju as soon as possible and tell Daping that we can't wait for his leg to be cured, so take Song Laoer away now and let him take good care of himself.
If I have time, I will go back to see him... Oh! It’s better not to say that. Just tell him that we will build a grave for his parents! We will also burn paper during the New Year and other festivals, so he doesn’t have to worry.
Song Dekui agreed and walked out, but when he reached the door, he was pushed back by a hand.
The person who pushed him was a guard in a gray shirt and a waistcoat.
Young Master Lin, dressed in bright brocade clothes, walked into the house slowly with his hands behind his back: "Where are you going?"
Behind him, Song Lao Er was nodding and bowing.
"Who are you and why are you stopping me?" Song Dekui staggered a few steps before he stopped and spoke angrily.
Young Master Lin looked at him coldly: It was this guy who ran from Xiaoshi Village to Suijin Town overnight, which caused Captain Jiang's raid to fail.
"I don't need to tell you who this young master is, you bad-mouthed pariah!"
Being called a pariah, Song Dekui was about to retort angrily, but was stopped by Song Lizheng.
Song Lizheng stood up and said in a deep voice, "This nobleman is going to Songfeng County to report the news."
Young Master Lin looked at him in surprise. "You old man have quite a good eye. It's true. I was the one who sent someone to Songfeng County to report the case. The Song family are fugitives. As long as you are a member of the Wu Dynasty, it is your responsibility to capture these criminals."
Song Lizheng suppressed the urge to curse and said calmly, "Young Master may not know this yet, but County Magistrate Jiang has already verified that the theft of Song Lao Er has nothing to do with the three siblings. I asked my son to go out and prepare the carriage and horses. I am preparing to go home."
Young Master Lin picked up a chair, lifted the corner of his robe and sat down, raised his eyebrows and said, "Want to leave? You haven't finished your work yet, you can't leave!"
