Chapter 298: Dirty and dusty - The sickly young lady eats melons in the courtyard

Mother Lin, Aunt Li, and Aunt Sui were all really exhausted yesterday. They didn't feel like moving much today and just wanted to rest more.

The three of them sat in Lin Qing's house and started chatting.

Aunt Sui asked, "Did those really go?"

"Should I go?" Aunt Li looked at the closed doors and windows of several houses in the front yard.

"Who knows what they will gain?" Whenever Aunt Sui thought of their gains yesterday, she wished they could run up the mountain today, so that all the good stuff on the mountain wouldn't be snatched away by those guys.

"Who cares when? The mountain is so big, it's impossible for them to bring back everything on the mountain." Lin's mother was open-minded.

"Hehe, that's right!" Aunt Sui thought about it and felt that she was a little narrow-minded, but she just couldn't help thinking that way.

Mrs. Li said the same thing as Mrs. Lin: "There is no end to the things on this mountain."

Mother Lin nodded. "Well, let's take a break for two days before going. We are really exhausted after this trip."

"Okay! Let's go again in two days." Aunt Sui was happy now.

Then the three of them started talking about other gossip.

"Hey, do you know about the Wang family?" Aunt Li suddenly brought up this.

When Mother Lin and Aunt Sui heard the word Wang family, they immediately thought of Wang Gousheng's family, and they looked at Aunt Li with shining eyes.

"What did you hear?"

"Hehe! I heard that old lady Wang went to the homes of her other three sons and directly put the blame for the theft on them, and specifically went to them to ask for compensation."

Mother Lin had a feeling that this was exactly what happened. "Is it coming?"

Aunt Sui also looked at Aunt Li, "No, of course not. Her daughters-in-law are not good people. Not only did they not get a penny, but they were also beaten for nothing."

Aunt Sui blurted out, "Ah? Another fight?"

Aunt Li nodded. "That's right. She went to each of her sons' homes one by one, and then she had a fight with each of their daughters-in-law one by one. She didn't get a penny back."

"I suddenly feel that she is a bit pitiful. What happened?" Lin's mother suddenly said.

Mother Sui curled her lips and said, "This man deserves it. This old lady Wang used to bully these daughters-in-law a lot. She even held all the financial power in the family in her hands. She is also biased. Everything in the family depends on her youngest son. Only because the daughters-in-law resisted, life has become a little better."

Aunt Li also nodded. What Aunt Sui said was true. To be honest, they were not the kind of people who would torture their daughter-in-law. They were very disgusted with Aunt Wang's behavior.

"I heard that old lady Wang even went to her son's factory to cause trouble."

When Lin's mother heard this, she realized that this was a serious matter. "Is she sure that this is really her son and not her enemy?"

They even brought it to the factory. Are they afraid that the work might be done too well?

Aunt Sui shook her head speechlessly, "Isn't she pushing her sons away?"

Aunt Li suddenly rolled her eyes. "Does it matter whether you push her away or not? All the sons in their family are like ungrateful wolves. In my opinion, Wang Xiaomei is the most filial."

Aunt Sui also rolled her eyes. "So what if Wang Xiaomei is the most filial? She was abandoned anyway."

Finally, Aunt Li couldn't help but sigh, "Alas, why is there such a policy of going to the countryside?"

Aunt Sui looked at Aunt Li's expression and immediately realized that this seemed to have touched a sore spot, so Aunt Li's youngest son went to the countryside.

The policy was very strict at that time, and the youngest son of the Li family did not catch up with the good times and had to go to the countryside.

Fortunately, they took the initiative to choose the location and specifically picked a rural area in the province, which is not too far away for them to come back when they have time.

On weekdays, I often send him things so that he won't be too sad in the countryside.

He is the only one in their courtyard who has gone to the countryside.

It must be said that the Li family's luck is really bad. There are only two people in their family who meet the conditions for going to the countryside, namely the youngest son and the youngest daughter of the Li family.

Now her little girl is still in junior high school, so there is no rush now, but it will only be two years. After graduating from high school in two years, if she still hasn't found a job, she will either get married or go to the countryside.

This topic was indeed a bit inappropriate, so Lin's mother and Sui's mother quickly changed the subject.

…

In the afternoon, after lunch, Aunt Li and Aunt Sui came to chat with Mother Lin again.

From time to time, I looked outside to see when Aunt Jiang and the others would be back.

"It's already this late, why haven't they come back yet?" Lin's mother looked at the time and thought it shouldn't be like this, as the buses would have come back by this time.

Aunt Li's heart suddenly skipped a beat. "Could those people have gotten lost in the mountains?"

Mother Lin and Mother Sui looked at each other and said at the same time: "No way?"

Lin's mother couldn't believe it. "How could they get lost? Did they go deep into the mountains? How dare they do that?"

Aunt Li suddenly became anxious. What was going on?

Mother Lin and Aunt Sui saw that Aunt Li was getting anxious, and they felt tired for her. It is not easy to be the manager of a school!

Lin's mother comforted him, "You don't have to worry. They did it on their own initiative. You didn't instigate them to do it. Even if something happened to them, it was their own fault."

Aunt Sui also quickly agreed, "That's right, they did go to the suburbs on their own initiative, it's none of our business, don't take everything on yourself."

After hearing this, Aunt Li calmed down. It made sense, it made sense. It wasn't her who asked them to go to the suburbs. They wanted to go there on their own. Whatever happened was their own business.

Mother Lin added, "Maybe they were delayed on the road and haven't come back yet. Wait a little longer, maybe they will come back soon."

Then they waited until after eight o'clock in the evening. The family members in the front yard found that the aunts had not returned yet. They were very anxious and hurried out to look for them.

Fortunately, there was only one way out of the city, so they followed the road to the suburbs and finally met them halfway.

The group of four were walking on the road under the moonlight, and all four of them were covered in dust.

Jiang Yang was so angry when he saw his mother walking out of breath. "Mom, why did you go to the suburbs for no reason? It's fine if you go to the suburbs, but why don't you keep track of the time?"

Aunt Jiang was so tired that she couldn't speak. Did they not want to check the time?

No, they don’t have watches, so they just look at the sky to tell the time. Who knows it will still be late?

They had no choice but to walk all the way back.

However, the journey was quite far, and they were almost exhausted after walking for so long and only two-thirds of the way.
