These people were barbaric and unreasonable and pushed Lin Wanjun away.
Fortunately, Du Jianhuai helped her and she avoided falling again.
"What are you doing! Erzhuang and Sanzhuang, what are you doing!"
Du Jianhuai protected Lin Wanjun behind him and scolded the men harshly.
"Jianhuai, where's your brother? I was just about to talk to him about this!"
A short and thin man stepped forward and complained angrily.
"That bitch Xie Xiulian had an affair with a man who was not her husband, and she even got pregnant with him! Do you think she should be denounced and criticized?"
"Since she's our sister-in-law, we don't want her life. We just have one request: get rid of the bastard in her belly!"
The woman named Xie Xiulian covered her swollen belly and cried.
"When your brother passed away, he left a will in front of all of you asking me to remarry. I stayed with him from the age of twenty to thirty. What else do you want from me?"
"I'm also a normal woman. Why can't I live my own life?"
…
From Xie Xiulian's crying, Lin Wanjun roughly understood what had happened.
This woman named Xie Xiu Lian and her late husband Du Dazhuang were engaged since childhood.
Although Du Dazhuang was a sickly man with not much time left, Xie Xiulian still married him in compliance with the agreement of her elders.
She took care of her seriously ill husband and respected her parents-in-law. At the age of eighteen, she took on the responsibility of supporting the family.
However, Du Dazhuang could not bear it. Less than two years after his marriage, he fell seriously ill and died.
Before he died, he specifically instructed that after his death, Xie Xiulian would not have to remain a widow for him, but should find a good man to marry.
Of course, after her husband passed away, Xie Xiulian did not rush to remarry, but continued to stay in the Du family, taking care of her sick father-in-law and raising her underage uncle and aunt.
Ten years passed like this.
She used her weak shoulders to support her husband's family in times of crisis, sent her father-in-law who was suffering from tuberculosis away, and raised her two uncles and two aunts to adulthood.
She even found wives for her two uncles. Logically speaking, she was a hero to the family.
Until someone tipped off Du Erzhuang that his sister-in-law was having an affair with a bachelor from the neighboring commune and even got pregnant with the bachelor's child.
Du Erzhuang did not make it public and asked his mother to observe secretly. It was not until last night that he confirmed that Xie Xiulian was pregnant with a bastard.
The entire Du family was furious.
Two married aunts, two uncles, and the elderly mother-in-law stood on the same front and unanimously demanded that Xie Xiulian have an abortion.
After hearing the whole story, Lin Wanjun felt very sorry for Xie Xiulian.
"As the saying goes, an elder sister-in-law is like a mother. She raised the four of you and prepared dowries for you. How dare you bully her like this!"
Du Sanzhuang didn't recognize Lin Wanjun and cursed, "Who the hell do you think you are? What right do you have to meddle in my family's affairs? Get out of here! Don't force me to slap you!"
After scolding Lin Wanjun, Du Sanzhuang stared at Xie Xiulian fiercely and raised his hand to slap her.
"You unfaithful bitch, are you worthy of my big brother?"
When Du Sanzhuang was about to kick Xie Xiu Lian, Lin Wanjun raised her foot first.
She kicked Du Sanzhuang in the back, knocking him to the ground.
"You fucking still know that she's your eldest brother's late wife? You fucking also know that your eldest brother has been dead for ten years!"
Lin Wanjun pointed at the noses of the four Du brothers and sisters and cursed them.
"What did your eldest sister-in-law say just now? Oh, after your father passed away, your mother, who was already 46 years old, remarried and left the burden of raising you to Xie Xiulian, who was in her early twenties."
"Hey, what do you mean by unfaithful? Your mother remarrying is natural? Your sister-in-law remarrying is unfaithful? You idiot, you've mastered the double standard so well?"
Du Jianhuai, standing by, whispered, "What do you mean by double standards?"
"That's double standards! They're lenient with themselves but strict with others. Simply put, shameless!"
Lin Wanjun sneered.
"What era is this? How many years have we been free of foot binding? How dare you allow a living person to be hanged on a dead person's grave?"
Lin Wanjun scolded the four Du brothers and sisters so fiercely that they could not even raise their heads.
The people watching around were also talking about it.
"That's right. Three years after Dazhuang passed away, Old Uncle Du died. In the spring of the following year, Dazhuang's mother abandoned her four children and remarried, finding a retired cadre!"
"Last year, the old cadre died, and his children couldn't tolerate Dazhuang's mother, so she came back dejected. Neither the second nor the third daughter-in-law wanted her. What a sin!"
"If I were Xie Xiulian, humph, I would remarry as soon as my husband died. Why would I care about uncles or aunts?"
…
The four siblings of the Du family were covered in saliva and could hardly raise their heads.
Du Erzhuang was so angry that he planned to drag Xie Xiulian back home.
"Just try touching her!"
Lin Wanjun stood in front of Xie Xiulian without fear.
Wu Hongxia, who came over, also supported Lin Wanjun. Afterwards, several other women stepped forward to fight against the Du brothers and sisters and protect Xie Xiulian.
After a brief confrontation, the Du brothers and sisters gave in.
"Alright! Xie Xiulian, you're awesome!"
Du Sanzhuang said, "From today on, there will be no one like you in our family. If you dare to set foot in our house again, I will break your legs!"
The two sisters-in-law were unwilling and murmured in low voices.
The eldest sister-in-law said, "Third brother, are you just going to let her go like this? If she leaves, who will take care of mother?"
"Anyway, let me make it clear first. My in-laws are difficult to get along with, and I definitely won't serve my mother. You three should discuss this!"
The sister-in-law was afraid of getting into trouble, so she left in a hurry, using the excuse that something happened at her husband's house.
The remaining three siblings looked at each other.
Lin Wanjun finally figured it out.
These three siblings simply treated Xie Xiu Lian as a servant so that she could fulfill their filial duties to their mother.
There is no such good thing in the world!
While they were making a fuss, Xie Xiulian suddenly groaned in pain and squatted on the ground holding her stomach.
Wu Hongxia was horrified.
"Oh my! She might have a miscarriage! Hurry, take her to my house and have Dr. Lin check her out!"
At that moment, several women helped Xie Xiulian up and walked quickly towards Wu Hongxia's house.
The Du siblings wanted to stop them, but Lin Wanjun glared at them.
"If you dare to touch Xie Xiulian again, don't blame me for fighting you to the death!"
When the Du siblings were not convinced and rolled up their sleeves to cause trouble for Lin Wanjun, Du Jianhuai, who had been watching the fight from the side, finally spoke.
"I will kill anyone who dares to touch her!"
There was an indescribable sense of disharmony when these words came out of Du Jianhuai's mouth.
Lin Wanjun looked back and saw that Du Jianhuai's eyebrows and eyes were full of hostility.
Wow, it turns out this person is a sinister and crazy person.
The Du brothers and sisters were so frightened that no one dared to touch Lin Wanjun again.
"Thank you! I'll go check up Xie Xiulian first."
Lin Wanjun nodded to Du Jianhuai to express her gratitude, then turned around and ran into Wu Hongxia's house.
It was not until Lin Wanjun's figure disappeared from his sight that Du Jianhuai finally came to his senses.
He touched the corners of his mouth, and after a moment, he smiled.
"stop!"
The Du brothers and sisters who were about to leave subconsciously stopped and turned back to look at Du Jianhuai.
Du Jianhuai walked up to Du Erzhuang.
"How did you know Xie Xiulian was with another man? Who told you? Was it Meng Shuan Gou, the director of Liulin Farm Commune?"
