Chapter 117 [VIP]
Speaking of which, apart from the eldest brother Lin Qiu and Chen Rong, Chen Qingyun is the one who has the best relationship with Lin Sui in this family.
The two were about the same age, with Lin Sui only four months older than Qing Yun. They had lived together for a long time and had many secrets between them.
Seeing her former friend lying lifeless on the bed, Chen Qingyun was filled with anger and resentment. She was angry that Lin Sui was in such a hurry to marry him, and resentful that the man didn't cherish her at all.
“Sui’er…”
Lin Sui opened her eyes upon hearing the sound, "Qingyun, you're back."
"Lie down quickly." Chen Qingyun sat down beside his bed and held his hand, tears streaming down her face.
"Don't cry, I'm okay."
"How could you be so stupid? I heard that guy surnamed Huang kicked you so hard that you miscarried?"
Lin Sui buried her head in her arms and hummed in agreement.
Seeing him like this, Chen Qingyun felt heartbroken again. I took his hand and said, "Don't worry, everyone in the family is here. We will definitely get justice for you!"
Lin Sui held her hand and sobbed, "Am I so useless? I'm married and I still make everyone worry about me."
"You can't say that. We're still young. Let the elders handle things that need to be done. Besides, you didn't do anything wrong. The Huang family is the ones who are wrong, and they must pay the price!"
The two talked for a long time. With Qingyun comforting her, Lin Sui was in much better spirits than in the past few days, and she ate half a bowl more for dinner.
A mother's heart is connected to her son's. Seeing that her son was feeling better, Chen Rong also felt better and had more energy when she spoke.
When Cao Kun returned home in the evening, he saw so many carriages parked in the yard as soon as he entered the house. He knew that his aunt's family had returned, and he excitedly ran into the house.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw Chen Qingyan and Chen Qinghuai standing at the entrance.
"Cousin Qingyan, Brother Huai, you've arrived!"
"Yes, I just arrived this morning."
Why didn't you send someone to call me?
"It's nothing, so I didn't keep you from working."
Cao Kun washed his hands, went inside, first looked at Chen Rong, and then greeted Li Shi and Fang Ling.
Both of them had a good impression of Cao Kun. This nephew-in-law was capable and kind, and he treated Lin Qiu and Chen Rong well. Everyone valued him highly.
"How is Mother today?"
Chen Rong nodded, "I'm much better, don't worry about me."
"You need to take good care of your health and give us some advice. This matter will definitely not be left like this. If the Huang family dares to do the first thing, they shouldn't blame us for doing the fifteenth."
"Kun'er, please don't do anything foolish." Chen Rong was afraid that this matter would implicate Cao Kun. If something really happened, what would happen to her two sons?
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
Li and Fang Ling also reassured him, "Cao Kun isn't someone who doesn't know what's important. He has a plan in mind. Besides, we're all here. We definitely won't let him put himself in danger."
Chen Rong was finally relieved.
Lin Qiu finished decocting the medicine. Chen Rong and Lin Sui were both exhausted. After drinking the medicine and eating half a bowl of rice porridge, they both rested.
Cao Kun then took the others to a restaurant in the county town for a meal.
Wang Ying still remembers this restaurant; he and Qingyan came here together last year when they celebrated Xiaomai's one-month birthday.
Once inside, I discovered that the manager had changed, but the interior was exactly the same as when I visited last year.
Once upstairs, everyone sat together, but their faces didn't show much joy at the reunion; they were all preoccupied with Lin Sui's situation.
Chen Qingyan was the first to ask, "Has Huang Yong not returned yet?"
"No, I sent two men to keep an eye on him near his house. They definitely won't be able to hide it when they get back."
"That beast!" Wang Ying couldn't help but curse. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. What kind of grudge could drive someone to beat someone like this?
Li asked, "Have you thought about what to do if he comes back?"
Cao Kun said, "Give him a good beating first, then get a divorce from his family."
Chen Qingyun said, "Giving him a beating is too lenient! His old hag should also be given a good beating!" She only found out today from chatting with Lin Sui that she hasn't had a full night's sleep since she married into the Huang family.
He gets up earlier than the chickens and goes to bed later than the dogs every day. All the housework falls on his shoulders, but his mother-in-law is still not satisfied. She makes things difficult for him at every turn and speaks ill of him to Huang Yong.
Huang Yong was a beast. After hearing his mother's words, he took his anger out on Lin Sui. At first, he just cursed her, but later he started hitting her, often leaving her with bruises and swelling.
Wang Ying said, "Giving them a beating is definitely not an option. If we beat them lightly, it won't be enough to vent our anger, and if we beat them too hard, we might end up in court if something goes wrong."
Li asked, "What does Ying'er think we should do?"
“We need to think of a way to not only teach Huang Yong a lesson, but also make sure the Huang family can never hold their heads up in the county again…”

After the meal, Cao Kun led the group to a nearby inn to settle in. Because there were too many people and the Cao family could not accommodate them all, and Chen Rong and Lin Sui both needed to rest and recuperate, they decided to stay at the inn.
Wang Ying plans to go to the county tomorrow to find a short-term rental courtyard. The county exam is coming up soon, and she can't afford to not get enough rest. She wants to take advantage of the time before the exam to review properly, because even last-minute cramming can be effective.
Lying in bed, Chen Qingyan asked, "Do you have any thoughts on what you just said?"
“I have an idea, but we can’t do it ourselves. We need to ask Chen Guang for help.” Wang Ying turned over and pulled her husband aside to speak.
“We definitely have to beat him, but giving him a beating would be too lenient. It’s a human life, even though he died before he was born. We can’t let him off lightly.”
Wang Ying planned to have Chen Guang secretly kidnap Huang Yong and then give him a good scare.
If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear. Wang Ying had done such a thing before, scaring Zhang Xiucai to the point of madness. Naturally, she had a way of scaring Huang Yong half to death as well.
"Moreover, I think there is no love or hate without a reason in this world. He and Lin Sui have only been married for a few months. I think there must be other reasons for how he treats Lin Sui. Maybe we can even dig up other ugly things."
Chen Qingyan nodded repeatedly, "You're right, let's see if we can catch him in the next few days!"
Unexpectedly, Wang Ying's random guess actually came true.
*
In Majia Village on the outskirts of the city, Huang Yong and his family have been living in an old house at the entrance of the village for seven days.
This house belonged to Huang Yong's maternal grandfather. After the old man passed away, it remained vacant and uninhabited. Recently, because of this incident, his mother moved here with the whole family to hide away for a few days.
"Mother, when can we go back?" Before dawn, Huang Yong crawled out of Madam Ma's bed.
"Are you in a hurry?" Ma asked, smoothing her hair and leaning back against the pillow.
"Living here is so stifling. I have to be careful everywhere I go. The mud walls don't block out sound at all. I'm really afraid my older brother and the other brothers will find out..."
"What are you afraid of? You are my son. It is only natural for a son to serve his mother."
Ma stretched out her hand to him, and Huang Yong groaned awkwardly twice before crawling back into her bed. Soon after, unbearable panting could be heard.
To be honest, this mother and son had been having an affair for quite some time. Huang Yong was eighteen years old when the New Year came, and he had been having an affair with his mother since he was thirteen.
However, Master Huang was still alive at that time, and the mother and daughter followed the rules, at most only sneaking around a couple of times.
A few years ago, when Mr. Huang passed away due to illness, this mother and daughter broke the taboo for the first time, and before the 31st day after his death, they were already in bed together.
One was a middle-aged woman, desperately in love, while the other was a novice who indulged in pleasure. Before long, they lost all sense of time and place.
The two knew that such a thing was against human ethics, so they were very careful and cautious, afraid that they would be discovered. Huang Yong still had to take the imperial examination, and he couldn't let this kind of thing delay him.
But as time goes by, secrets don't stay hidden forever. Ma felt that her eldest daughter-in-law's gaze was a little strange, and she began to wonder if she had let something slip.
To conceal their relationship, he arranged to bring forward the previously arranged marriage, hoping to marry Lin Sui as soon as possible to avoid gossip.
It just so happens that Lin Sui also likes Huang Yong. The two fell in love at first sight during their first blind date. Madam Ma even quarreled with her son over this. Huang Yong finally managed to appease his mother, so naturally he didn't have a good impression of Lin Sui.
The marriage was also done in accordance with his mother's wishes; once he brought the woman home, he never considered having any further contact with her.
However, if a man could control his lower body, he wouldn't have ended up in his mother's bed. He slept with Lin Sui not long after they got married.
This was quite a shock. Madam Ma was so jealous she was practically in heaven. On the surface, she couldn't stand Lin Sui at all and wished she could torment him to death. Behind her back, she cried, made a scene, and even threatened to hang herself with her son, forcing Huang Yong to swear he would never sleep in the same bed with Lin Sui again before she would stop.
Huang Yong listened to his mother after all. After several attempts to sow discord, he lost all goodwill towards Lin Sui. At first, he only cursed her a few times, but later, Madam Ma felt that this was not enough, so she had her son beat him.
After hitting Lin Sui once and seeing that she dared not resist, he did it a second time, a third time... until this time he kicked Lin Sui so hard that she miscarried.
The bed rocked for a while before stopping. Ma Shi, her face flushed, got up to wash herself. After washing up, she changed her son's clothes. The two were not husband and wife, but they looked more like a married couple. Their disgusting appearance made people want to vomit.
"Don't rush, wait a few more days. Right now, Lin Sui's older brother is definitely not going to swallow this insult. Her husband is the manager of a porterage business and has a lot of employees working for him. If he really comes to beat you up, I can't bear to do that."
Huang Yong hugged his mother's waist and swayed her back, "Mother still loves me the most..."
"Hmph, you know how good your mother is, yet you still went to touch that slut. If you hadn't kicked her and caused her miscarriage, I wouldn't have known she was pregnant."
"I only touched him that one time after we got married."
"Can you get pregnant in one go?"
"Who knows? That child might not even be mine. Judging from how Cao Kun is protecting him, he might be having an affair with him."
Ma's eyes darted around and she said, "What you said makes some sense. Maybe the relationship between these two is really unusual! In that case, let's go back to the county town tomorrow. If Lin Qiu really dares to come knocking on our door, don't blame us for not giving him any face!"
Upon hearing that he could go home, Huang Yong happily picked up Madam Ma and carried her in his arms. "That's wonderful! I'll divorce him when we get back. From now on, I only need Mother to stay with me!"
The next day, the Huang family drove back to the county town with their large and small bags.
Ma's plan was that as long as the Lin family didn't make a fuss, they would pretend the incident never happened, at most apologize to Lin Qiu, and then he could recuperate and continue living his life.
If the Lin family investigates, just say that Lin Sui is not carrying their child. Then not only will they divorce Lin Sui, but everyone else will also lose face!
Unfortunately, she miscalculated. If it were just Lin Qiu and Chen Rong, she might have been able to outmaneuver them. But now that so many members of the Chen family have come, which one of them would tolerate her bullying them like this?
Huang Yonggang had barely arrived home and settled in when he was kidnapped while he went to the outhouse.
The Huang family didn't notice either. It wasn't until lunchtime that Madam Ma searched for her son for a long time but couldn't find him. She was so frightened that her face changed drastically, and she quickly grabbed her eldest son and ran to the yamen to report to the authorities.
