"You also said that you raised me with your shit and piss, then who have you fed your rice and meat to all these years?" Lin Qingping asked.
"You..." Wu Ah Xiu blushed, "That's what I said! How can you grow up if I don't give you food!"
"Yes, my second sister and I ate bran and sweet potatoes, while my younger brother had white rice, eggs and meat for every meal. After eating, we went to work from morning to night, under the scorching sun and cold wind, without ever taking a break. My younger brother, who got to eat good rice and meat, never had to do anything! So, why were my second sister and I able to be admitted to Capital University? Was it because we suffered more?" Lin Qingping wished he could bring up what happened in the next few decades.
When her father heard this, he felt so ashamed that he shouted angrily, "Shut up!"
Her father is a man who values his reputation very much and will never lose it no matter where he goes. Family matters were brought up like this, and she, as a daughter, was in the wrong in the first place.
"You're just a girl! It's good enough that you can be raised. What else do you want?" her father yelled at her.
Even if Lin Qingping were to be reborn, she would still feel chilled to the bone when she heard these words. She smiled faintly and said, "Yes, girl, a daughter who is married off is like water spilled out. Why are you looking for me again? What do you want from me? Do you think that when there are good things, the daughters will stand aside, and when there are bad things, the daughters will be asked to take the brunt of the consequences?"
"You..." Her father was not good at speaking to begin with, and when she asked him back, he got so angry that he wanted to hit her with his pipe.
The secretary persuaded her father to stay and spoke kindly to her mother. Lin Qingping then said, "Secretary, neighbors, I'm really sorry. As the saying goes, family disgrace should not be made public, but our family's disgrace has really been seen by everyone time and time again."
"But Secretary." She looked at the secretary, "I really hope this is the last time, because this time, we are really powerless to do anything."
The branch secretary knew that Lin Jiagui was caught for gambling, which was illegal. Comrade Xiao Lin was just a student, so what could he do?
He nodded. "That's exactly why I came here."
It was embarrassing for him, the village party secretary, to have such a thing happen in the village, but he was both the village party secretary and a fellow villager. Lin Jiagui had been sent to labor camp, and it was not a good idea to leave Wu Axiu alone in the capital. The old man of the Lin family had never been far away, so when Lin Qingping invited him, he accompanied her.
Wu Axiu was not willing to just let the matter go. She jumped out, grabbed the old man from the Lin family, pointed at Lin Qingping and cursed, "She caused Jiagui to have a finger chopped off! It was her fault! Make her pay for the finger!"
Her father's face turned blue. Lin Jiagui was the root of his Lin family. If one of his fingers was cut off, the whole thing would be useless!
Seeing that her father was about to get angry again, Lin Qingping said coldly, "How was this finger cut off? Find out first! Otherwise, my mother's finger will not be saved either!"
After hearing this, Wu Axiu couldn't help but shudder when she recalled the fear she felt when Lin Jiagui's fingers were chopped off that day.
Lin Qingping looked directly at her father, "Lin Jiagui, your precious son participated in gambling. Not only does he owe Second Sister's classmate these five thousand, he also owes another fifty thousand!"
The neighbors watching were shocked, "Oh my God! Fifty thousand!"
The previous number of 5,000 had already shocked everyone, and the number of 50,000 was simply unbelievable.
This is an era where everyone who earns 10,000 yuan is considered wealthy!
What kind of prodigal son could be so wasteful?
Her father's face went from furious to pale, and he took several steps back...
fifty thousand……
How long will it take to pay it back...
"So, Secretary, please be fair. No one can pay back this money even if they sell everything they have, right?" Lin Qingping asked seriously.
After hearing this, the branch secretary sighed.
"Besides, Secretary, my brother is in jail, but he clearly borrowed the money and there is an IOU. He said he would pay within three days, and if he couldn't pay it back, one of his fingers would be chopped off."
Lin Qingping looked at her mother and said, "Mom, the deadline has passed again, and people are looking for you all over the city! If you can't pay the money, are you going to give them your own fingers to be chopped off?"
"Then... weren't those people arrested?" Wu Axiu asked tremblingly.
"The person has been arrested, but the debt is still owed. Do you think someone else will come to you to ask for money?"
Her mother was so scared that she huddled behind Old Man Lin and began to tremble, but she was still unwilling to let Lin Qingping go. She hid behind Old Man Lin and pointed at Lin Qingping and cursed, "You have no conscience! You didn't even save your own brother! And you are still trying to scare me! I...I will go to your school and sue you! I will also go to your son-in-law's army and sue you!"
Lin Qingping sneered, "What are you suing for?"
"I'm accusing you of being unfilial to your parents!" Being unfilial is a serious crime! At least that's what Wu Axiu thought.
"Then what does it mean to be filial to your parents?" Lin Qingping asked, "Does it mean that you have to find a way to get your brother who is gambling illegally out of jail?"
"Yes! You clearly have a way to do it, but you don't do it!" Wu A Xiu scolded loudly.
Lin Qingping smiled and said loudly, "Let's not talk about the fact that we really have no solution. Even if there is, Gu Juncheng will not do it. As a soldier, Gu Juncheng's duty is to defend the country! To protect the safety of thousands of families! To protect the peace of thousands of households! To protect the motherland's territory from being violated! Instead of using the little ability he has to help lawbreakers get away with it! This is contrary to the interests of our people!"
Lin Qingping's words were powerful and every word struck the hearts of the onlookers.
The neighbors watching immediately applauded.
"Well said! Xiaolin! We support you!"
"Comrade Xiaolin! Captain Gu is a good person, and so are you. I applaud you!"
Lin Qingping was not exaggerating.
Gu Junben was originally such a person. His lifelong ambition was to defend his country. She would never let him do anything that went against his principles and tarnished his life and ideals.
