Because those words were whispered in Granny Lin's ear, the younger members of the family did not hear them.
But none of this concerns them.
Lin Wang gleaned an important piece of information from the conversation of a group of women.
He asked incredulously, "What did you just say?"
The plump aunt put her hands on her hips and said proudly, "Our village chief's son-in-law is a military officer. He and Jing came back especially for Dashan when he was injured."
Lin Wang knew Li Hanting's identity better than anyone else. If he had a daughter, Su Jingjing wouldn't have gotten her.
If Da Niu gets arrested, Li Hanting might have been involved, which would make things complicated.
Lin Wang concealed the violence in his eyes. "Let's go back first."
"What?!"
Old Mrs. Lin, forgetting her lesson again, said, "Old man, Da Niu's matter hasn't been resolved yet."
"Father, didn't you say you were going to rescue my eldest brother?"
Lin Siniu thought to himself, wouldn't it be too embarrassing to go back in such a dejected manner?
"hiss……"
The next second, his wife pinched the only bit of flesh on his arm, making him wince in pain.
"Shut up." The fourth daughter-in-law of the Lin family glared at her.
Lin Wang noticed the couple's subtle actions, and his expression deepened.
"Let's go back and talk about it first."
After saying that, he put his hands behind his back and took the lead.
The rest of the Lin family looked at each other in surprise, and after regaining their senses, they followed behind.
The group came in all this way with great fanfare, but then slunk away, leaving the people of Sujiazhuang completely baffled.
A moment later, everyone burst into laughter, and the Lin family members stumbled.
As soon as they got home, Granny Lin couldn't wait to ask, "Old man, why are you so afraid of the Su family's son-in-law?"
Lin Wang slowly took a sip of tea and lifted his eyelids.
"What do you know? Li Hanting holds a high position and his family is powerful. Even Director Wang has to give him some face."
His brows furrowed into a deep frown. "If I'm not mistaken, it was he who suggested that the Su family call the police."
Wang Feng is an absolute cunning and treacherous person who generally doesn't bother with trivial matters in the countryside.
"Then...what should we do?"
Granny Lin panicked. Was her son, Da Niu, really going to jail?
When the eldest daughter-in-law of the Lin family saw her father-in-law helpless for the first time, she became frightened.
He pulled his son to kneel before him, pleading, "Dad, you must save Da Niu!"
"Tiedan and the others can't live without their father."
Tie Dan and his mother, looking completely bewildered, were forced to kowtow.
"Tiedan, Gou Dan, please beg your grandfather."
Tie Dan is not as clever as Gou Dan, and is just as silly as Lin Daniu.
Dog Egg's eyes darted around, and he quickly crawled to his grandfather's feet, hugged his leg, and cried out in a very emotional voice.
"Grandpa, save my dad. Gou Dan can't live without his dad, and Grandpa can't live without his son."
In the entire Lin family, Lin Wang's most beloved son was Da Niu, and his grandson was Gou Dan. He believed that the two of them inherited his intelligence and were just like him.
"Grandpa's good grandson, get up first. Don't worry, Grandpa won't let your father go to jail."
Lin Wang gently patted the dust off Gou Dan's knees and invited him to sit down and drink tea, a privilege not afforded to anyone else.
Looking up at the group of younger generation, he said, "No matter the cost, Da Niu must return safely."
He took a deep drag of smoke. "Tomorrow morning, Erniu and I will go to the county hospital to find out the situation and see what the Su family's attitude is before making a decision."
As long as their interests are not harmed, no one has any objections.
Only the second daughter-in-law of the Lin family felt indignant, as all the bad things happened to her and her husband's family.
Why choose Erniu?
It's simply because he's honest and doesn't talk nonsense.

Since Su Dashan's surgery, he has been resting day by day and his health has recovered quite well.
Yan Ling felt both happy and distressed, pondering that the hospitalization and surgery fees had cost nearly 1,100 yuan.
That amount of money could build a decent brick house in the countryside.
No, the Lin family must pay this money back.
"Jing, do you have a breakdown of the expenses we've incurred these past two days? Let's collect it."
Su Jingjing instantly understood her mother's meaning and smiled faintly, "Don't worry, Mom, I'll keep them all."
Yan Ling adored her daughter's intelligence, which was very similar to her own.
"It's truly gratifying to see Lin Daniu in jail; the Lin family should also suffer a bit."
Whenever Yan Ling thought of Granny Lin's wrinkled old face, she couldn't help but want to scratch her.
They've had a feud for decades.
Su Dashan handed the water glass to his wife. "Mom and Dad, Lin Daniu is in jail. The Lin family will definitely retaliate. Why don't we just scare him a little?"
The usually gentle Dong Qin disagreed with her husband's point of view this time.
"Dashan, we absolutely cannot compromise."
Yan Ling slapped her thigh, exuding a heroic air, "Xiao Qin is right. If we release Lin Daniu, the Lin family will not only not be grateful, but will become even more arrogant and domineering."
Su Jingjing and her husband shared the same thoughts as their mother.
Lin Wang had to transfer several times before finally arriving in the county town.
He took Erniu straight to the police station, hoping to bribe them.
To everyone's surprise, Wang Feng rejected him, even adopting a superior-like attitude.
“We cannot accept the hard-earned money of ordinary people. Your family’s case should be judged according to the proper procedures.”
Lin Wang's legs went weak immediately.
He continued with a shameless smile, "Director Wang, this is just a trivial matter in the village, it's not worth going to jail for."
As she spoke, she secretly stuffed a wad of cash into his pocket, saying, "This is all the savings our family has. Could you please make an exception for us?"
Wang Feng estimated that the wad of cash contained eight hundred yuan, and he felt a strong urge to take it, but his official position was more important.
However, it was truly astonishing that this village chief from the countryside had so much savings; he must have been skimming off the top of his pocket.
"I cannot accept it."
Wang Feng still righteously pushed it back.
"Seeing how sincere you are, I'll tell you something. The Su family isn't scary; what's scary is that they have a powerful and influential son-in-law who's someone we small-town folks can't afford to offend."
“If Li Hanting doesn’t give in, your Da Niu will definitely end up in jail.”
Lin Wang's face turned deathly pale, and he almost lost his balance.
"Dad, don't scare me."
Lin Erniu quickly helped him up.
Lin Wang wiped his face; it seemed he had to go find Li Hanting.
"Director Wang, thank you for reminding me."
After leaving the police station, Lin Wang went straight to the county hospital.
He bought some fruit from a roadside vendor, which cost him several yuan, and he was heartbroken.
Upon arriving at the county hospital, after making some inquiries, we finally learned about Su Dashan's ward.
Looking at the rows of bustling wards, Lin Wang couldn't contain his joy.
He subconsciously assumed that Su Dashan also lived there.
What rich son-in-law? It's all bullshit!
But when he stepped onto the third floor, the surroundings instantly became quiet, with only a few nurses moving around.
