Chapter 39 Ruffian (4) (1/2)
Widow Zhang didn't go in directly to threaten, and she wasn't stupid either. She was a widow, and her only son was the cowardly one she despised most. Lin Shiheng was a fierce and aggressive guy, and the money was too much. Who knows? Where did he get it from? What if she threatened him and killed her without stopping?
Although she had never heard of Lin Shiheng taking action against the villagers before, Widow Zhang used herself to save others and felt that if she could have such a large sum of money, she would wish that no one in the world knew about it. If this money was really The unknown origin of her was revealed to others, so she really might have done something shady.
After secretly listening to the wall for a long time, it was nothing more than Temporary Ou coaxing his mother to say that she earned money by going to the city. Widow Zhang sneered in her heart.
They were all from the same village. How could she not know when Lin Shiheng was going to the city?
Just stayed in the city for two days and made so much money?
He could also deceive his silly old lady.
After the mother and son in the yard entered the house, Widow Zhang quietly left the wall, frowning along the way and thinking about what she could do to get the Lin family's land without letting Lin Shiheng take revenge.
What's more, maybe you can give her some money.
She has now determined in her heart that this money was definitely not earned by Lin Shiheng from regular channels. It would be much easier to take advantage of others. But the problem is, Lin Shiheng has such a bad temper, don't kill her again when the time comes.
Widow Zhang returned home thoughtfully. As soon as she opened the courtyard door, she saw her granddaughter squatting on the ground holding a branch and making blind gestures on the ground. While making gestures, she read out the written words in a clear voice.
She raised her eyebrows, took two steps forward and grabbed the branch from her granddaughter's hand, "Who taught you to write? Didn't I say that you are not allowed to read with those boys!"
The young girl, dressed in gray clothes, huddled up and said, "Grandma, I want to learn to read."
"How can you read! It is virtue for a woman to be without talent. This sentence has been passed down from our ancestors. I don't even know how to read. What are you doing if you don't know how to read? Go cut grass and feed the pigs quickly. The work at home is not finished yet. I’m sorry to be fooling around here!”
The girl was afraid of her, but looking at the crooked words she had written on the ground, she still begged in a low voice, "I've finished cutting the pig grass. Grandma, please let me learn to read. When I learn to read well, I will make a lot of money for you."
"Pooh!"
"You still make a lot of money like this, let me tell you Zhang Yatou! Don't think about making money. When you grow up, I will marry you off directly. I don't know which grandson you get it from every day. With these thoughts, I always thought about running to the city when I was young. If you earn me a betrothal gift, you will make money for me! "
"Okay, why are you crying there? Today's pigweed has been cut and tomorrow's will be cut! Hurry up and cut the pigweed for me! If you don't cut it, you won't be able to eat tonight!"
As soon as Aunt Lin came back from the fields, she heard her mother-in-law's angry and cursing voice from far away. Thinking that the voice was scolding her daughter, she hurriedly walked into the yard.
Sure enough, as soon as she entered, she saw Widow Zhang with her hands on her hips, cursing at her daughter, whose eyes were red and her face was full of tears.
"Mom, this girl is ignorant, don't argue with her."
Aunt Lin felt pain in her heart when she saw this scene. She quickly stepped forward to smooth things over, "Girl, hurry up and cut the pig grass."
When Zhang Yatou saw her mother, her tears fell even more fiercely. She originally wanted to cry to her with aggrieved eyes, but when she raised her head and heard these words, the light in her eyes fell and she lowered her head silently. , carrying the frame and going out obediently.
Sure enough, her mother wouldn't help her.
Aunt Lin watched her daughter go out and breathed a sigh of relief. She carefully looked at her mother-in-law's face and asked tentatively, "Mom, what did this girl do to offend you? She is young, so don't argue with her."
After hearing this, Widow Zhang became even more arrogant and scolded her daughter-in-law instead.
"She is too young, and her disobedience was not taught by adults. She really expected me to die. I don't know why I believed your mother's lies and spent a lot of money to let my son marry you. You coaxed my son to work for you every day, even if you didn't give me a grandson. The dead girl you raised is also restless. I have to talk to your mother one day and ask her if she has any grudge against me. That’s why I…”
As she was talking, she suddenly stopped talking.
Yes, the old lady Lin and Lin Shiheng didn't have to deal with each other, and unlike her, the old lady Lin had a son and a grandson.
When the Lin family was separated, Mrs. Lin offended her daughter-in-law who had lost her husband and her grandson who had lost her father. For such a long time, Lin Shiheng never refused to acknowledge her.
But whether he likes it or not, this old lady Lin is his grandma by blood, and it is much easier to do things than this roundabout relative of his.
Widow Zhang's eyes were getting brighter and brighter, and even her daughter-in-law didn't care to scold her, so she quickly turned around and walked outside.
She went to find the Lin family. Everyone in the Lin family was obsessed with money, but they were Lin Shiheng's serious relatives and elders. Lin Shiheng had made a fortune, how could he not give some to his elders?
If they were not separated, how could so many people in the Lin family be afraid of him?
They were all from the same village. She quickly walked to the courtyard of the Lin family. The Lin family was one of the few large courtyards in the village with a prosperous population. This was what Widow Zhang envied Mrs. Lin. Even though she only had one son. , Mrs. Lin actually gave birth to so many sons in one go.
But think about it, if she hadn't had many sons, she wouldn't have cared about a grandson like Lin Shiheng, and drove him out mercilessly when he was so young.
Widow Zhang rubbed her hands, looked around nervously, and then stepped forward to knock on the door. After a while, someone inside opened the door. They said a few words before letting Widow Zhang in.
None of them noticed that after Widow Zhang entered, a head popped up on the relatively dilapidated wall opposite. It was a gangster who usually followed Lin Shiheng in the village. He quietly climbed up and looked at the Lin family yard pulling Old Mrs. Lin. Widow Zhang who spoke quietly got off the ground again, turned around and ran towards Lin Shiheng's house.
"Brother Shi! I saw it really. Widow Zhang held your grandma's hand and smiled so affectionately. Didn't they always have a bad fight because of the bride price? When I saw Widow Zhang's smile I feel numb all over, there must be something wrong with her!”
Lin Shiheng held a large pair of scissors and cut the weeds outside his yard. He nodded while listening to the report from his men, "These two people are definitely going to cause trouble for someone. They are not easy to use."
"you do not say!"
The man clapped his hands, "I figured out that Brother Shi, you and them are all relatives. I was afraid that they wanted to join forces to plot against you, so I hurried over to report the news."
"Okay, I remember the brotherhood."
Looking at the grass in front of him that had been trimmed into sharp curves, Lin Shiheng took back his hand with satisfaction, narrowed his eyes slightly on his handsome face, and said with a smile, "How is the thing I asked you to do before?"
As soon as he mentioned this, the young man in front of him, who was younger than him, looked embarrassed, "I followed your instructions and helped my relatives a lot. They now see me as approachable, and... He said he wanted to introduce someone to me."
"Brother Shi, you said that we didn't have much contact before, so I helped you a few times. Why are they all so nice to me? Yesterday, my third aunt made chicken soup at her house, and she even brought a bowl of it from all the way. Give it to me, it tastes so delicious. I have never tasted such delicious chicken soup in my life. I wanted to give it to you when I saw the chicken soup, but I finished it after smelling it."
Speaking of this, his face was mixed with embarrassment and joy, and he stretched out his hand and scratched his head.
"If you didn't kiss them before, it was because you didn't want to have contact with them at all. You thought they were pitiful and had no father or mother, so you were kind to you. You rejected them yourself, and of course they didn't want to associate with you."
Lin Shiheng threw the scissors in his hand and watched as the people under his hands hurriedly caught them, "Relationships are just about kissing."
"Of course, except for a few people. If there is someone with an abnormal mind who wants to take advantage of you and make trouble for you every day, you are welcome. Just say hello directly."
The young man thought he was talking about himself, and shook his head with a hint of joy on his face, "My relatives are all pretty good, they don't have that kind of people."
Lin Shiheng glanced at him and didn't say that he was talking about their family.
"Brother Shi, are you going to the county this afternoon? I heard that two more brothers have found a partner, and they said they would treat everyone to a good meal."
"No, I have something to do in the afternoon, you go."
He has been busy running around recently, either doing things in the fields or doing things for Mother Lin's small bookstall. It's rare that he didn't go out today, sitting peacefully in the yard waiting for guests to come.
Lin Shiheng didn't wait long before Old Mrs. Lin came with a cane.
The genes of the Lin family are really divided into two levels. Lin Shiheng himself is good-looking and handsome, but Mrs. Lin has a standard slanted eye, a hooked nose, a thick mouth, and a face that is not good enough. Just standing there and looking at people makes her look... He looked like he was not to be trifled with.
It's just that she usually has good health. Lin Shiheng has never seen this woman with a cane so many times in the village. Today when she came to their house, she still had a cane on the pillar.
When she saw Lin Shiheng sitting at the door basking in the sun, Mrs. Lin frowned and looked at her with a disdainful look, "It's sunny in the sky, if you don't work hard, what are you doing sitting here!"
The young man sitting on the small bench raised his slender eyebrows and asked, "Who are you?"
Old Mrs. Lin choked, obviously she didn't expect Lin Shiheng to act so unreasonably.
"Who am I? I'm your grandma!"
"grandmother?"
Lin Shiheng suddenly realized, "Oh... I remember, it was the grandma who drove me and my mother out of the house with a stick when I was a child."
"What's the matter, today is not the anniversary of my father's death. Even if you want to come and kowtow, the day is a bit early."
Mrs. Lin, who originally wanted to say a few words, was very angry at Lin Shiheng's rude attitude. She was used to being the elder at home, so she couldn't bear this kind of attitude.
Besides, even if she kicked people out in the first place, it was because the family had been divided. There was no reason to bring the children to the house to ask for food after the family was divided.
Grandma Lin completely divided the so-called family and only gave her daughter-in-law and grandson food that could not sustain them for even a month. She only complained that her grandson did not know how to respect the elderly.
Since Lin Shiheng didn't give face, she no longer cared about the principle of blood relationship.
Grandma Lin put on a serious face, looking like she was going to attack the enemy.
"When you were young, I discovered that you were a naughty person. You would steal things at a young age. I didn't expect that you would become more courageous when you grew up. You dared to touch such a large sum of money without fear of being caught by the police. The Bureau will shoot you!"
This is what she often said to fool her grandchildren. The disaster in the past period scared the villagers, especially the old people like Grandma Lin, but some old people were afraid and would avoid talking about it. General people like Grandma Lin It was used to scare the younger generation, it was really unique.
It's just that she forgot that Lin Shiheng was no longer the child who was allowed to be manipulated by others. When she said this, she just smiled coldly, "I didn't break the law. Why did the people from the Public Security Bureau shoot me?"
"You didn't break the law?"
Mrs. Lin just thought he was still insisting, "You didn't break the law, where did your money come from?"
"Don't think I don't know, but there are several red tickets. Considering that I am your grandma, I don't need to tell the police about this."
She said this harshly, but Lin Shiheng just raised his eyebrows slightly after hearing this. He didn't say where the money came from, but asked, "Are you so kind?"
"It's just that you still have some foundation. It would be bad if the police investigate and find out. It's better to do this."
Thinking about the red tickets that the widow said, a glimmer of light flashed in Mrs. Lin's eyes, and she tried her best to show some kindness and kindness on her face: "You give these money to grandma for safekeeping. Grandma is old, the police Don’t dare to search me, wait until the storm is over and you can take it back.”
Lin Shiheng frowned, as if he didn't really believe what Mrs. Lin said. A pair of beautiful eyes stared at her, making her faint, and then he asked hesitantly, "If I give it to you, can you pay it back?" Give me?"
"It depends on what you kid said."
Seeing that his attitude had softened, Mrs. Lin waved her hand, "I am your grandma, can I still harm you?"
Lin Shiheng's frown deepened, "It's impossible to tell. I was almost starving to death. My mother took me to your house to ask for food, but you kicked me out without even a bite to eat."
"If you, Grandma Qin, didn't care about me, how could I be a gangster?"
As soon as his straightforward words came out, Mrs. Lin's wrinkled face stiffened slightly.
In fact, she had no contact with her grandson. After all, when he was young, Mrs. Lin was worried that her grandson would pester her and ask for food, so she always avoided him.
When her grandson grew up and became a gangster who was feared by everyone, Mrs. Lin had to hide away even more.
Although she was very confident about driving away her daughter-in-law and grandson every time she met someone, it didn't mean that she didn't know how ruthless she was.
In addition, Lin Shiheng held a grudge at the first glance, so Mrs. Lin naturally wanted to avoid him.
Therefore, in fact, she didn't know much about Lin Shiheng. She only learned more about it when chatting with others and listening to them talk about how powerful Lin Shiheng was and what kind of gangster he was. She really didn't know much about his character.
Unexpectedly, she was just pretending, and Lin Shiheng, who seemed extremely cruel to her, actually believed her.
Mrs. Lin couldn't help but feel proud.
Also, since she has so many grandchildren, she naturally knows that the more she ignores them, the more they will please her.
Lin Shiheng grew up without a father and followed his useless mother, so naturally it was the same.
She was thinking beautifully, and gradually relaxed her vigilance. She regained her previous ferocious expression, and still spoke softly about how uncomfortable and helpless she felt when she drove away their mother and son.
"Your uncle and others also had children at that time. You were always bullied by your cousins at home at such a young age. Grandma wanted to take care of you, but she also had to work. She was so busy that she couldn't spare any time. I have no choice but to let you and your mother separate from us. Although life is a bit difficult, at least you are in charge of your own affairs, and you will feel relaxed after a while. "
As she said this, Mrs. Lin sighed with a melancholy expression, "Look, aren't your family's lives pretty good now?"
"What a good thing!"
Lin Shiheng snorted coldly, "I haven't eaten meat in days. I can't even eat chicken if I want to."
Mrs. Lin's eyes lit up, and she was worried that she had no place to win over her grandson so that he would let him go and give the money to her, but he gave it to him himself.
Thinking of the old hen that was carefully raised at home and laid an egg every day, Mrs. Lin hesitated for a second and then gritted her teeth and said, "What's the point! I've raised so many chickens. If you want to eat them, I'll kill them right away." One for you!”
"May I?!"
Lin Shiheng's expression was really one of surprise, "Aren't your chickens all laying hens? Can you really give it to me? Don't you feel bad?"
To be honest, I feel a little distressed.
After all, it was an old hen.
Even if you don't lay eggs, you can still make a lot of money by selling them on the street. If that doesn't work, you can stew them yourself and eat them, which will also nourish your body.
Just as Mrs. Lin was thinking this, what Widow Zhang said flashed through her mind.
Several red tickets.
Yes, there are so many red tickets, a mere old hen is nothing.
This is what she calls it, she can't bear to let her son trap the wolf!
After trying hard to convince her reluctance to give up, Mrs. Lin firmly replied, "Isn't it just a chicken? You are my grandson, and I am your grandma. Let alone a chicken, even if it is a chicken every day A chicken is fine.”
“Is it okay to have a chicken every day?”
Lin Shiheng's eyes clearly lit up and he became a little interested. He simply stood up and said directly, "Then let's go to your house to eat chicken now."
"Now, now?"
Even though she was ready to sacrifice her chickens, Mrs. Lin did not expect it to happen so soon.
"Of course now."
After the handsome young man answered matter-of-factly, his eyes suddenly became a little more suspicious when he looked at Mrs. Lin. Even his slightly improved tone before was lowered, "Aren't you trying to fool me?"
"They said they wanted to treat me to the old hen, but actually they didn't even think about giving it to me."
Mrs. Lin's expression froze again. She really had this idea.
"No, no, how could I think like this? Come on, go home now. I will kill an old hen immediately to replenish your body. Shi Heng, you are grandma's grandson. Of course grandma loves you. You Don’t listen to the nonsense of those talkative women in the village. You were too young when you and your mother moved, and you didn’t know many things. She actually really cares about you. "
Facing Mrs. Lin's expression of "I am sincerely sharing with you how I love you from the bottom of my heart", Lin Shiheng was noncommittal and only showed a faint smile on his face.
It was this smile that made Mrs. Lin feel proud.
Young people are young people, no matter how fierce and fierce they are, as long as she shows her identity as her own grandmother and fools around with her for a few words, she won't be able to get it done very quickly.
Mrs. Lin was very satisfied with coaxing Lin Shiheng into "depositing" the money with her. As for the widow Zhang who tipped off the news to her, she had no intention of sharing the money with her after receiving the money.
Originally, this was her grandson. Why should someone with a foreign surname take the money that her own grandson paid filial piety to her?
There is no such truth in the world.
Thinking about the scene of those red tickets in her hands, Mrs. Lin became more and more proud. It is no exaggeration to say that she even felt windy when she walked.
Today, all the villagers who met Mrs. Lin Shiheng in the village were very surprised. How could this grandma and grandson, who had never dealt with each other, still walk together affectionately?
Could it be that the sun is coming out in the west?
Faced with everyone's doubts, Mrs. Lin didn't want to talk to them. After all, her wealth was not revealed, and she had no intention of paying back the money to Lin Shiheng. If people knew about this, Lin Shiheng would come to her to ask for it. What if a da:n'te:ng guy comes to testify?
Thinking about it, Mrs. Lin walked forward without looking sideways, and whispered to her grandson, "Shi Heng, you must not tell these people about your money. The less people know about it, The better, Nai has lived for such a long time and has eaten more salt than you have eaten. You heard me right."
"Okay." Lin Shiheng agreed happily. After a while, someone with strong curiosity came up and asked, "Lin family, why are you standing with Mr. Shi?"
"What do you mean? How can I stand with him? I am his Grandma Qin, and he is my grandson. Is it weird for grandma and grandson to walk on the road together? It's none of your business!"
Old Mrs. Lin's speaking voice was unpleasant, and she always seemed to have sand in her throat when she spoke. It wouldn't matter if it was just like this. After all, it was windy here, and almost everyone had throat problems to some extent, but she loved to talk. Dirty words, when this garbled voice is mixed with the dirty words, it makes people unable to understand a word and at the same time makes them all uncomfortable.
The man's tone was quite good, but when he asked something and was scolded, his expression immediately turned bad.
She didn't want to ask anymore, but Lin Shiheng opened his mouth and said with a smile, "My grandma said she would take me back to make chicken soup."
"Yo!"
The old lady immediately became energetic, "Are you still stewing chicken soup? Aren't the chickens in your house reserved for laying eggs? Why are you still stewing them?"
Moreover, it was stewed for the grandson who had never even looked at it before. Who would believe that there was nothing wrong with it?
Old Mrs. Lin originally disliked this old woman for being a gossip, just saying hello when she met her on the street, and asking questions. Now when she heard her mention this matter, she felt happy.
She was worried that she had no place to show Lin Shiheng how much she, a grandmother, loved him!
Thinking of this, she glanced lovingly at Lin Shiheng, who was standing there with a smile, and said with a smile, "Isn't this what my Shiheng wants to drink? A young man of his age should have eaten more good food. Look, he is so tall. , The body is still so thin, of course those who don’t care don’t think it’s a big deal. As a grandma, I feel very distressed. The old hen is the most nourishing. Shi Heng’s health is good after drinking it, so I feel relieved.”
"I can't tell. You actually know how to love your grandson. The last time your family killed chickens was probably two years ago. I remember that at that time, your little grandson was so hungry that he sat on the ground and cried. You didn't even look at him. Just put the meat in your mouth, that scene is awesome.”
"Can the little bastard compare to my Shi Heng?"
Hearing her mention old things, Mrs. Lin's expression immediately changed. She pulled Lin Shiheng forward and walked forward, "Shiheng, let's ignore her. Let's go. Grandma will make chicken soup for you."
Although her strength was great, to Lin Shiheng, it was equivalent to an ant trying to hold up a big tree, but he didn't show it, and he obeyed and allowed Old Mrs. Lin to pull him forward, and turned to face the gossiping old man. The wife said hello, "Grandma Fang, we are leaving now, see you later."
"See you later."
Grandma Fang stood there on crutches, watching the two people leave, secretly wondering in her heart.
How could these people who had been at odds for nearly twenty years reconcile just by saying they were reconciled?
Facts have proved that it is indeed impossible for people who have been at odds for nearly twenty years to reconcile just because they want to.
Old Lady Lin was thinking about Lin Shiheng's money, so she treated him well after bringing him home. Lin Shiheng also cooperated very well. Not only did he eat everything, but he also praised the chickens for being well-raised and asked if he could take two home.
What else could Old Lady Lin say?
She still expected Lin Shiheng to give her money.
So with a kind smile on her face but extremely distressed inside, Lin Shiheng walked out of the yard with two chickens, turned around and smiled at Old Lady Lin who came to see him off, "by the way" and mentioned the money, "This money is for my business, I can't use it to honor you."
Old Lady Lin's expression froze.
She never thought that after saying all the nice things, eating the chickens, and even taking two away, she would get such a result?
"Are you kidding me?"
"You, you bastard, I..."
Old Lady Lin opened her mouth to curse, but before she could get angry, Lin Shiheng at the entrance of the yard had already slowly moved the chicken in his left hand to his right hand, and very smoothly took out a knife from his waist bag.
Old Lady Lin's high-pitched curse was immediately cut off in the middle, and it was silent in an instant.
"Grandma." The young man in front of her was still smiling, as kind as when he was eating chicken and drinking chicken soup just now. "I have only killed animals with this knife. If it splashes with your blood, it will be considered dirty."
"You'd better stay at home and don't come out, otherwise, I don't know where this knife will be inserted in the next second, understand?"
"Also, don't come to my house again. If you really want to, remember to bring a chicken next time you come, otherwise, this chicken-killing knife may fall on your neck."
Old Lady Lin is afraid of death.
She has always been a person who fears death, otherwise she would not have been so impatient to throw away her daughter-in-law and grandson to save food during the most difficult period of her life.
She felt that she had enough sons and grandsons, so she didn't need a grandson. As for her granddaughter-in-law, her son was dead, so what was the use of her?
And now, the grandson who was thrown out of the door by her like garbage pointed a knife at her.
Now in broad daylight, young and middle-aged people are working in the fields, and even children have to go around cutting pig grass and digging earthworms for the family's livestock. Therefore, only some old ladies are wandering in the village. Now, in front of the old Lin's house, there is no one else except her and Lin Shiheng.
If Lin Shiheng really stabbed her with a knife...
Old Mrs. Lin stood there blankly, watching Lin Shiheng leave with his two chickens. After a long time, she finally came to her senses and sat on the ground.
She, she didn't get the money and lost three chickens?
What a sin! !
Old Lady Lin cried bitterly because of her three chickens, but she didn't dare to go to Lin Shiheng to make trouble. When the knife was pointed at her, the cold look of this blood-related grandson really made her feel cold all over.
She had a hunch.
If she continued to pester him, Lin Shiheng might really chop him down.
Old Lady Lin was so scared that her legs went weak. She rested in the yard for a long time. The people in the field hadn't come back yet, but Widow Zhang couldn't wait to go out and ask if Old Lady Lin had succeeded.
As a result, before she arrived at Old Lin's house, she met Lin Shiheng carrying two chickens on the way.
She mustered up the courage to ask where the chickens came from. Lin Shiheng smiled and replied, "My grandma gave them to me. She said she was happy."
He left first, leaving Widow Zhang to think about it in her mind.
Everyone knows that Old Lady Lin is the most stingy person in the village. She can take the initiative to give Lin Shiheng chickens. She must have got the money to be so generous!
Really! She said, if my grandmother stepped in, it would definitely work! Thinking of the benefits that Old Lady Lin promised her, Widow Zhang happily went to Old Lin's house and asked directly
"Old Lady Lin! What's going on?! Did Lin Shiheng give in?"
"I heard that you also gave him two chickens. How much money did he give you? You said you would share it with me..."
"Get lost!!!"
Old Lady Lin was already very angry. She was feeling sorry for her chickens, but Widow Zhang was the one who reminded her. She immediately exploded, slammed the table and stood up, yelling at her to get out.
Widow Zhang was stunned at first, "What do you mean? You forget who you know the credit for the money after you get the money, right? If it weren't for me, would you know that Lin Shiheng has money?"
"What a shitty money! You little bastard didn't give me anything and took my chicken for nothing!! You are not a good thing either. Don't think I don't know what you are thinking!! Get lost!! Get out of here!!"
Widow Zhang was not someone to be messed with. After hearing these insults, she immediately turned her face and put her hands on her hips to curse at Old Lady Lin.
"You're so good! Now that you've got the money, you've turned your back on me! You..." Lin Shiheng took the two chickens to the county and asked the brothers who knew how to cook to stew them and share them. When he returned home at night, he heard Lin's mother say in surprise, "Your aunt's mother-in-law and your grandmother actually had a fight. Several people tried to stop them but couldn't. I heard that both of them were seriously injured. They were taken home and still lying on the bed cursing. What kind of deep hatred caused them to be like this?" Under the light, the increasingly handsome young man put his luggage in the suitcase with a smile, "Whatever they do, it's none of our business anyway." "That's right." Lin's mother agreed, and she was even a little happy for her sister-in-law. After all, Widow Zhang was beaten and lying on the bed, so she naturally had no time to bully her daughter-in-law and granddaughter.
She put aside these gossips and turned her head to look at her son, "Shi Heng, when will you leave?"
Things at home are almost settled, and I will probably leave soon. Thinking about it, I really don’t want to leave.
"I'll wait a little longer. There's one last thing that hasn't been taken care of. Once this thing is taken care of, you can leave with peace of mind."
Lin Shiheng closed the box, raised his head, and smiled at his mother.
Mother Lin asked curiously, "What's going on? Aren't you clear about all these things at home?"
"It's my brothers' business. I'm not at home. Please help me take care of you."
"I'm such a big man, I don't need anyone to take care of me, so you can just work without worrying about me. I've been going to the roadside every day these days, and I met the Ke family by chance, and we had a great chat. I also met this kid Jialing. I’ve met him a few times and he’s a good kid.”
As soon as she mentioned her future daughter-in-law, Mother Lin immediately became excited. She patted her chest and promised her son, "Don't worry, Shi Heng. I will definitely help you get things done for Jialing's parents, but you also You have to work hard. If Jia Ling gets good grades, she will definitely go to college in the future. Although you two are young and have a good relationship, you have to be better to be worthy of someone else, you know?"
Lin Shiheng didn't dislike his mother's verbosity at all. He smiled and nodded, "Mom, I understand. You go to bed early and don't worry about it. I will definitely work hard. Not only for Jialing, I also have to provide for you in your old age."
Mother Lin looked at her son's tall figure and immediately felt comforted and felt that her son was becoming more and more calm.
Sure enough, having a girl you like means progress.
She made the bed and prepared to fall asleep, but before going to bed, she was still thinking about what Shi Heng said she had to do one last thing.
On the third day, the county suddenly announced a comprehensive rectification. People sent from the top led the county police and wandered around the streets to catch the hooligans.
The small group led by Lin Shiheng was reported, and the police went to the streets to arrest people. They originally thought that they would encounter stubborn resistance from gangster groups at most.
As a result, this small group did not resist and just followed the people away. However, a group of "poor people who were oppressed by the gangsters" in their view rose up to fight, holding large winter melon eggs in their hands to stop them from leaving.
"Why are you arresting people!!"
"Don't leave! Leave people behind!!"
The public security officers who were wearing uniforms and looking righteous and solemn, feeling that they were killing someone for their own sake, were collectively stunned.
The leader stood up and said a few words, "Folks! Don't be afraid. We have the people under control. They can no longer force you to pay money. If anything happens, we will protect you."
The words that were supposed to be comforting made the crowd even more angry.
"Why are you forcing us to pay? We gave it to you on our own initiative!"
"That's right!! Who is forced to pay?? I gave the money, and they helped me do things, gave me carts, and helped look after the stalls. Usually they are responsible for helping me find things if they are lost!! Why are they forced to pay? Money!"
This is exciting and controversial.
"Comrade Public Security, you can investigate. These are good kids. They have never done anything bad. The money we pay is equivalent to hiring. Why is it illegal to hire someone now and have to go to jail?"
This is done calmly and analytically.
"Brother An, Brother An!! Comrade, my husband is really a good person. Every time everyone thanks him and offers food to him, he refuses to accept it. He says that he cannot take advantage of the masses. This is following the party. Let the country go, comrade, let him go, our child is only half a year old, he can’t live without his father!”
This is what the family members are crying on the ground.
The scene was chaotic, and everyone who was passing by selling vegetables stopped everyone from leaving, their faces full of anger and excitement.
There was also a little child whose father was arrested, crying and being held by his mother and calling him daddy.
A group of police officers looked at a loss.
Aren’t they here to fight against criminals, eliminate violence and protect the country?
Didn’t the whistleblower say that these gangsters do all kinds of bad things and still force people to give them money?
Are they here to catch bad guys?
How do you make it look like they are the bad guys...
