Li Yanhong saw him coming back and stretched her neck to look behind him: "Didn't I ask you to go pick up your wife? Why are you coming back alone?" Lin Jun: "My mother-in-law is sick, and Miaomiao said she wants to stay at her parents' house for a few more days."
"No." Li Yanhong was surprised. "How come you didn't know your mother-in-law was ill before?"
Speaking of this, Lin Jun was also helpless: "Miaomiao didn't tell me before. She said she was afraid that if I knew and told you, you would worry again."
"She also said that if I hadn't been so annoying and kept going over to pick her up, she wouldn't have been able to tell me anything until now."
He felt depressed when talking about this. It was as if he was an outsider and such a big thing was being hidden from him.
Su Lixuan stopped writing the test and drooped her eyelashes to hide the deep thought in her eyes.
Ever since we parted at the Song Family Old Restaurant, Sun Miao hasn't come back. There's been no news from him, and no signs of him having a falling out with Lin Jun.
Every time Lin Jun went to the Sun family, the Sun family was still warm and friendly, so much so that Lin Jun didn't notice anything wrong until now.
Such a reaction... is abnormal no matter how you think about it, especially not in line with the character of her sister-in-law Sun Miao.
For some reason, Su Lixuan felt that the current situation was very much like the calm before the storm. She always had a vague feeling that something was about to happen.
"Something happened!"
Just at this moment, Lin Wenhui ran in from outside. The first words she said when she entered the door were these two words. Su Lixuan's heart sank.
Li Yanhong also covered her chest and asked, "What's wrong? What happened? Who's in trouble?"
Lin Wenhui: "I heard that Lin Xi took that old man..."
She didn't know how to describe it, so she organized her words and summarized it in one sentence: "Lin Xi killed Kou Liyan!"
"What is that?!" Li Yanhong suspected that she had heard it wrong.
Lin Wenhui: "I didn't believe it at first, but that's how it spread. Kou Liyan's son even called the police, and Lin Xi was taken away."
Su Lixuan was shocked. Thinking about the few times she had dealt with Lin Xi, she really couldn't imagine that Lin Xi was such a reckless person.
She wasn't speaking for Lin Xi, she just felt that it wasn't right.
Su Lixuan: "Really? Lin Xi still has that guts? She doesn't even dare to run away from her marriage."
Lin Wenhui shook her head. To be honest, she didn't know the specific situation, but since Lin Xi was taken away by the police, it was probably related to her.
Li Yanhong murmured, "Something fatal has happened, but fortunately it has nothing to do with our family."
"Not necessarily..." Lin Wenhui seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Seeing the three people at home looking at her, she confessed in a low voice: "The reason I heard the news of Lin Xi's murder was because someone went to school to tell me."
"That person is my dad's neighbor. She also told me that my dad's family is in chaos right now, and my grandma is so angry that she fainted."
Hearing this, Li Yanhong frowned suddenly: "Why did she come to school specifically to tell you this?"
Not to mention that Lin Wenhui had moved her household registration long ago, just look at Lin Wenhui's age. How could she, a little girl, talk to her about Lin Youcai's mess?
Li Yanhong has seen people with big mouths, but she has never seen anyone with such a big mouth and still owe money.
Su Lixuan, however, thought of something else: "Mom, I remember you said something happened to A-Zhan's grandmother a while ago. Was she sick or something? Did you specifically tell Big Brother?"
Lin Jun nodded and told him, but he didn't care.
Su Lixuan pondered: "First, he informed Big Brother, and now he has deliberately used someone else to inform Wen Hui. If I'm not mistaken, A Zhan must have heard the news as well."
No matter how Li Yanhong thought about what her daughter-in-law said, she felt something was wrong.
Li Yanhong: "Li Xuan, what do you mean?"
Su Lixuan thought for a moment and tentatively guessed, "I wonder if the old lady of the Lin family wants to repair her relationship with Big Brother, A Zhan, and Wen Hui?"
"impossible!"
These words were spoken by Lin Jun in a firm tone.
He was the oldest when Lin Youcai divorced his mother, and he remembered his grandmother's expression most clearly.
People don't even want to recognize them. In the old lady's words, how great can the children born to Li Yanhong be? What kind of people can they become if they don't have good roots?
She recognized her own son and Chen Fei as her mistress, and thought that the child born by those two people was the one from her Lin family.
After so many years, it makes no difference whether he has a grandmother or not. It's impossible that the old lady feels that she has done something wrong in the past and now starts to miss him and his sister, right?
The old lady is not such a soft-hearted person.
After hearing what Lin Jun said, Su Lixuan hit the nail on the head: "But the problem is, Lin Youcai and Chen Fei haven't given birth to the so-called old Lin family's offspring in all these years."
"It seems that she won't be able to give birth in this lifetime. Even if she does, she won't be able to see the child grow up due to her age. So it's not impossible for her to turn around and come back to find you."
Of course, we can't guess so absolutely. After all, the old lady in the Lin family doesn't sound like a person with a conscience.
Su Lixuan played it safe and casually guessed the second possibility: "That may be because she needs you now."
Lin Jun: "Sister-in-law, what do you mean by this?"
Su Lixuan: "That's exactly what it means. Before, you two were young, so she didn't need you. Now that you're older, you need her. It would be beneficial for her to ease the relationship with you at this time..."
…
No one expected that Su Lixuan's casual guess, which was not made with much care, would turn out to be the right answer by accident.
Within two days, Lin Jun and his sister were visited by people from the old lady's side.
Lin Zhan had no time to exchange pleasantries with those people who claimed to be his relatives but whom he had never met before.
He simply sent two of his former hangers-on to scare the guy away.
It's different for Lin Jun and Lin Wenhui. One of them works at work and the other at school, neither of which is a good place to fall out with others.
I held my breath and listened to a lot of moral blackmail. Finally, under the strange looks of my colleagues and classmates, I had no choice but to grit my teeth and promise to go back to visit the old lady.
Just like that, when they came to their senses, both of them clearly felt that the way people around them looked at them had changed, and it was no longer the same as before.
This feeling is like a dumb person eating bitter herbs, they can't even express their pain.
You can't just explain to everyone one by one how messed up your family is, right?
That night, the brother and sister met after work and school, and without hesitation, they went straight to Lin Yuanshan's place.
First, I wanted to ask the old lady what she meant. Is she crazy?
Family disgrace must be made public.
As for the second one... because of what happened during the day, they would never want to go through it again. The embarrassing experience of being treated like monkeys by so many people was enough after experiencing it once.
The old lady wanted to see them, so they fulfilled her wish. If they had anything to say, they should just speak out and say it clearly, so that the old lady wouldn't have to order others to find ways to disgust them.
The brother and sister made up their minds, but compared to Lin Jun, Lin Wenhui was still a little timid. To build up her courage, she even went back home to ask her second sister-in-law to come out of retirement...
Lin Wenhui: "Second sister-in-law, you don't think I'm heartless, do you?"
