Watching Lin Piaoxue's retreating figure, Lin Qinghuan felt a little better.
Lin Piaoxue just needs to be taught a lesson; to put it bluntly, she's just being a jerk!
Grandpa Lin couldn't help but chuckle as he watched Lin Qinghuan subdue Lin Piaoxue so badly that she didn't dare utter a sound. Not bad, she's worthy of being his granddaughter, she's just as domineering as he is!
Seeing Lin Qinghuan teach Lin Piaoxue a lesson, Lin Feng's depressed and aggrieved mood dissipated considerably.
Lin's father and mother looked at Lin Qinghuan with mixed feelings, feeling somewhat guilty. Lin Qinghuan saw their emotions but didn't take them to heart at all, turning around and going back to her room.
Grandpa Lin looked at Mr. and Mrs. Lin and said, "Everyone has their biases, but I've never seen anyone as biased as you two."
Lin's father and mother knew that they were biased and could not treat their five children fairly. However, with so many children, it was impossible to treat them all equally. Lin's grandfather favored Qinghuan and disliked Piaoxue.
“Father, even fingers are not all the same length. With so many children in the family, it’s inevitable that one will be overlooked. You also especially like Qinghuan and don’t like Piaoxue,” said Lin’s father.
Grandpa Lin scoffed and stared at Lin's father, saying, "I do favor Qinghuan, but she is filial and kind, and she has been abused by you, so I love her more."
“Unlike you, who are blind to the value of a selfish daughter and treat her like a treasure while beating and abusing the daughter who is sincere to you.”
Grandpa Lin looked at Lin's mother as he said this, "If it weren't for Qinghuan, you would be in your coffin by now, buried in the mud."
Lin's mother looked embarrassed. It was indeed Qinghuan who saved her life. If Qinghuan hadn't done her best to save her, she would really be dead.
"And you, if it weren't for Qinghuan, where would you get the money to open a brick factory? You probably wouldn't even be able to afford food right now." Grandpa Lin chuckled as he spoke. "The clothes you're wearing were all bought by Qinghuan. What has your precious daughter bought for you? Not a single piece of clothing, not even a thread."
Lin's mother and father were so ashamed by what Lin's grandfather said that they wanted to disappear.
Lin Feng and Lin Qing felt pleased to see their father and mother speechless after being told off by their grandfather.
Grandpa Lin looked at Lin's father and mother with a dark expression. "Second son, second son's wife, I know you favor Piaoxue and now you value Li Qiang. But I want to say something from the bottom of my heart."
“You can’t treat everyone equally, but you can’t be too biased either. Look at how you’ve pushed your other four children far away for the sake of Lin Piaoxue. You’ll regret it later.”
Lin's father and mother's expressions turned serious after hearing what Lin's grandfather said. They knew that Lin Piaoxue was selfish and only cared about having money. If they didn't have money, Lin Piaoxue wouldn't even look at them and would only think that the two old people were a burden.
One day when they grow old, unable to work or take care of themselves, who will they rely on? Will they rely on Lin Piaoxue?
Grandpa Lin and his mother knew perfectly well that Lin Piaoxue was unreliable; their other four children were much more dependable than her!
Lin Qing and Lin Feng noticed the expressions on their parents' faces, but the two had already given up all hope for them.
Lin Qing sighed, “Father, Mother, you both know you’re getting old and Lin Piaoxue won’t care about you anymore, but you still can’t help but be good to her. You’ve gotten used to being good to her, even if she treats you cruelly and heartlessly.”
"We've come to terms with it and no longer expect you to be kind to us four siblings."
Mr. and Mrs. Lin's expressions changed drastically, and an unspeakable pain welled up in their hearts. How disappointed their eldest son must have been in them to say such a thing!
"Eldest son, all parents in the world love their children. You will understand our difficulties and hardships when you get married and have children in the future," Lin's mother said sadly.
All five children were her children. Although Lin's mother favored Lin Piaoxue, she loved the other four children equally.
“Mom, I believe you love us too, but compared to Lin Piaoxue’s love, the four of us siblings are inferior. We are also the ones who were abandoned. In the future, when we have children, we must not let them follow in our footsteps,” Lin Qing sighed.
Lin's mother wanted to say something more, but Lin's father stopped her, saying, "Alright, that's enough."
Lin's father was worried that if they continued talking, Lin Qing and Lin Feng would become even more resentful towards them.
Lin's mother sighed helplessly. They were all siblings, so why couldn't they understand each other, help each other, and live in harmony?
Grandpa Lin gently shook his head. "They say you learn from your mistakes, but why can't my second son and his wife learn their lesson and let go of their resentment? They're hopeless!"
Grandpa Lin gave Lin's father and mother a disdainful look, stood up, put his hands behind his back, and prepared to take a stroll around the village to clear his head.
Lin Qing and Lin Feng were worried that their grandfather was getting old and might fall if he wasn't careful when he went out, so they hurriedly followed him.
"Grandpa, where are you going? We'll go with you," Lin Qing said.
Grandpa Lin said, "Seeing your parents upset, go out for a walk and clear your head."
“Grandpa, we’re in a bad mood and we’d like to go for a walk…” Lin Feng said.
Grandpa Lin smiled with relief. He knew that Lin Feng and Lin Qing were worried about him going out alone and were concerned that something might happen to him.
As Lin's parents watched Lin Qing and the others walk away, they felt a mix of emotions. Their son was very filial, but the object of his filial piety was not them!
I suddenly felt a pang of sadness!
