Others are fleeing famine, but I am a salted fish

The village head was speechless when he heard the shameless remarks of the Lin family, although he sympathized with the dead people and children of the Lin family. But, one thing is one thing.

The village head stood firmly in front of Old Man Lin and Miao with his cane, and directly rejected all the crooked thoughts of the old man. He said frankly that if Old Man Lin really died, it would be a favor for the third son and his wife to send him off, and it would not be wrong if they did not send him off.

As for other people who want to get close to Lin Laosan's family, his old village head is still alive. The document of severing the relationship has been recorded by the government. There is a copy kept in the ancestral hall, and each of the two families has a copy. No one can think of taking advantage of the opportunity to get close to the other.

After saying this, the head of the village had his men escort Lin Laosan and his wife, and Lin Dahua and her son out first, leaving the people in the old house who had occupied the rooms to wait for Lin Xiaoyue to come back, to see if she could make these people obedient.

As a result, as soon as Lin Xiaoyue came back, everyone in the old house was anxiously looking for excuses.

At this point, Lin Xiaoyue and Lin Zhaodi couldn't help but raise the corners of their mouths with a hint of sarcasm. The people in the old house really had a good plan. They really thought that they could cover up all the past evil deeds by giving in and playing a pitiful role. What a daydream.

In Lin Dashan's house, two Lin families sat together, sneering at the naive idea of ​​the old Lin family. Even the head of the village disagreed. Lin Dashan and Aunt Dashan were also constantly comforting and convincing the Lin Laosan family, telling them not to be fooled by the old Lin family's temporary soft words.

They can't be coaxed easily. Do they really think that they only care about food and not beatings? What's more, the people in the old house have never given them a meal.

As for wanting to take advantage of them again..., everyone, in unison, cast their eyes on Old Man Lin, who felt like sitting on pins and needles under everyone's gaze.

Thinking of his past indulgence towards the old house, he couldn't hold back his face and could only stammer and say that he would go back and hide for a while. He was leaving for Wanbao Town tomorrow anyway, and if he didn't see the old house, he would not take advantage of the people there.

If you can't afford to offend, you can always hide.

Old Man Lin knew his complicated feelings towards Old Man Lin and Old Lady Lin, and was also certain that he was their biological son. Although he didn't understand why his parents had disliked him since he was a child, maybe people are just that mean, the more they lack something, the more they want it.

But today, he also knows that some family affection cannot be forced. What everyone in the old house did hurt him deeply, and he no longer wants to drag his wife and daughter down for the sake of that illusory family affection.

After receiving the clear response from Old Man Lin that he was completely disappointed with the old house, the Lin family felt completely relieved.

The one who is most easily shaken among them is Old Man Lin. As long as he doesn't hold back, the others will not let the people in the old house take advantage of the opportunity to break in.

Lin Xiaoyue and the others were satisfied with Old Man Lin's awareness, thinking that it would only be one more night, as they would set off for Wanbao Town tomorrow. They would go their separate ways in the future and no one would care about the people in the old house.

Of course, if they are really not afraid of death and are determined to go to Wanbao Town, then she will not be afraid.

Come on, act now, who is afraid of who now?

Without any worries, Lin Xiaoyue prepared to go downstairs and get another room, otherwise it would not be convenient to always stay in Uncle Dashan and the others' room.

Old Man Lin had no worries here, the sky was clear and the air was bright, but in the old house next door it was cold and rainy, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.

Everyone in the room was dejected, wondering why the third brother was still so stubborn even though they had already been so humble. The only sounds in the room were complaints, sobs, and low curses from time to time.

But they were only separated from the evil star Lin Xiaoyue by a wall, and they were also afraid that Lin Xiaoyue would rush over to teach them a lesson if she heard them. So they did not dare to curse too loudly. They could only hold back their voices and grit their teeth, cursing the third wife for being unfilial, cursing Lin San Ya for being vicious and cruel and not wanting to die a good death, cursing her for being so evil-hearted that she would never get married and would have to cut her hair and become a nun...

Anyway, no matter how bad it sounds.

But more than half an hour had passed, and everyone was tired of scolding, but there was still no sign of Lin Laosan and his wife coming over to humble themselves and serve the old man. They thought that Lin Xiaoyue's return must have restricted their movements.

The eldest aunt looked depressed, gently tugged at Uncle Lin's sleeve, and whispered to him what to do, whether to stay in this room or go back to the big bunk bed. Uncle Lin didn't have an idea either, he pondered for a moment and sat next to Old Lady Lin to ask her opinion.

"Mother, what do you think we should do next? The third girl is back, and the third brother will be even more difficult to pry open. What's more, the head of the village is still pressuring us. We can't use our family as an excuse. Look at this..."

Mrs. Lin was now focused on the dying Mr. Lin. Upon hearing this, she glared at her eldest son and said, "Why should we be afraid of a dead girl like her? As long as the old man and I are still alive, we will not tolerate him being unfilial. If anyone tells others about this, the spit of people on the street will drown him. Don't worry about that unfilial girl for now. Go and find Doctor Li to check on your father."

Uncle Lin had a big headache because his mother was too tight with the money. Even if his younger sister married into a rich man's family as a concubine, all the money she earned would only go into his parents' pockets and never be given directly to them.

Otherwise, he would have run away with his wife and children long ago. Who would still squeeze into the same bunk bed with the second wife? Aren’t they afraid that they would be stabbed from behind out of the blue?

"Mom, you know that I came here in front of everyone to ask Doctor Li to treat Dad, but he refused without mercy. With that resolute attitude, even if our whole family begged him on their knees, even if we offered him a large sum of money, it would probably not work."

"Bah, what the hell does he want? He's just a country doctor and he still wants money. We asked him to come and see the old man, and that was just a face for him, but he still dares to take advantage of it." Old Mrs. Lin refused to let go of the money and tried to get free food and accommodation from Lin Lao San.

Uncle Lin was speechless. The other party didn't owe you anything, so why should he give you a free consultation out of face? Don't you see what time it is now? He is still holding on to the money. If the old man really can't hold on and dies, the funeral expenses will cost a lot of money.

"Mom, please take care of Dad. He didn't eat well during the journey and he's been sick and barely alive. He finally made it to the state capital. If you don't find a doctor for him, I'm afraid Dad won't have much time left."

"Bah, didn't the doctor at the city gate check it out? He said your father was just stimulated and had a temporary brain rush. If he is fed well and taken care of, he can still survive for a while. It's not like he has contracted an epidemic. Why bother looking for a doctor? It's a waste of money."

Uncle Lin thought, "My God, doctors only treat plague, not other diseases. Besides, you said it was outside the city, and there were more than a dozen doctors sitting in a row, and there was not even a herbal medicine behind them. You still expect them to prescribe medicine for you."

Although he was complaining in his heart, Uncle Lin still looked like a filial son who was worried about his old father. "Mom, it's not like you don't have money. Didn't Fourth Sister give you a lot of banknotes earlier? You can use them to treat Dad. Are you afraid that Fourth Sister won't give you the money? Dad is the most important at this time. With you and Dad here, we will be more confident in winning Third Brother back."
