My daughter was sold, I want to divorce her and go back to my parents' home to escape the famin
Chapter 3: Hostage the Father-in-Law
Seeing the Sun brothers leave, Lin Qingxue ignored them. She held the kitchen knife firmly on Sun Tieniu's neck, motionless.
"Second brother, go ask mother for some money to buy Da Ya and Er Ya back. I'll go ask the village chief and others to help think of a way to rescue Dad from your wife."
Sun Daniu originally wanted to scold Sun Erniu for not being able to control his wife, but when he saw the wound on his hand, he was speechless.
After all, it was the fault of their eldest wife. If the eldest wife hadn't planned to sell the two daughters of the second wife, Lin Qingxue wouldn't have gone crazy.
"Okay, big brother, I'm sorry, it's all my fault..." Sun Erniu said with a guilty look on his face. He has never had his own opinion and always listened to his parents and big brother in everything. Even though it was his own daughter who was sold this time, he didn't care.
"Don't blame you, it's all Lin Qingxue's fault," Sun Daniu shook his head, hiding the gleam in his eyes, and said helplessly.
After hearing what Sun Daniu said, Sun Erniu felt a little better, but he still felt a little guilty.
He felt that as the head of the family, he should protect his family, but now he has put his father in danger.
He decided to find a way to rescue his father and not let him get hurt.
Sun Daniu looked at Sun Erniu and knew that he was feeling upset, so he patted him on the shoulder.
Comforting him, "Second brother, don't blame yourself too much. This is not your fault. Let's work together to find a way. We will definitely be able to save Dad."
Sun Erniu nodded, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes. He believed that as long as everyone worked together, they would be able to overcome this difficulty.
The two brothers soon parted ways to do their own things. Sun Erniu asked Sun Po for twenty taels of silver, walked to the village entrance, and took a ox cart into the city.
As for Sun Daniu, he went to the village chief's house alone. He did not say that Lin Qingxue went crazy because her two daughters were sold. He only said that Lin Qingxue suddenly went crazy and held Sun Tieniu hostage with a knife.
"What did you say? How could the Lin family do such a thing? Sun Daniu, are you hiding something from me?" The village chief glared at Sun Daniu, and he immediately felt guilty. This matter was originally started by him, so he naturally felt very uneasy.
"I..." Sun Daniu was so scared that he couldn't speak. He had always been afraid of the village chief, so how could he dare to hide it? He immediately told him that Grandma Sun had sold Lin Qingxue's two daughters.
"You are such a scoundrel. Da Ya and Er Ya are such good girls. They help Lin with laundry, cooking, and farm work every day. Yet you're thinking of selling them for money. Is this your wife's idea or your mother's?"
The village chief pursed his lips, feeling furious. He had been the village chief for decades and had never encountered a case of selling children. This was a precedent set by the Sun family.
"This is what my mother meant," Sun Daniu said without hesitation. The firmness in his tone almost made the village chief believe it.
But when he thought of the villagers' evaluation of Sun Daniu and his wife, he was extremely disappointed with the eldest wife of the Sun family. In order to let his son go to school, he sold his own niece. Both Sun Daniu and Sun Erniu were not human beings, and what they did was not human.
Thinking of this, the village chief didn't want to go to the Sun family, but he was afraid that Lin Qingxue would really kill Sun Tieniu, which would make things even more serious.
"Okay, I'll be there right away. You go to the elders' houses first and ask them to go as well," said the village chief. Sun Daniu nodded in agreement and turned to leave.
After Sun Daniu left, the village chief instructed his grandson, "Good boy, run to the neighboring Linjia Village and talk to Lin Qingxue's family about this matter. Ask them to come and support her."
After explaining all this, the village chief walked towards the Sun family.
In fact, it’s not that the village chief doesn’t want to favor people from his own village, but the Sun family has really gone too far!
Although Sun Tieniu's family is not rich, they are not so poor that they have to sell their granddaughter to support their grandson's education.
If you really can't come up with the money, you can sell some land.
The reason why the Sun family made this decision was simply because Lin Qingxue gave birth to two daughters, and Lin Qingxue's parents had passed away, so she herself did not have enough ability to support the family.
But after this incident, Lin Qingxue will definitely not be bullied by anyone like before. For the sake of her two daughters, she has to become strong.
At the Lin family's house in Linjia Village, when Sun Xiaomao arrived, the Lin family had just finished lunch and were sitting in the yard to rest.
"Is Lin Qingxue's family at home? Something happened to Lin Qingxue. You should go to the Sun family to save her quickly," Sun Xiaomao shouted loudly as soon as he entered Linjia Village, and ran into the Lin family while shouting.
"What did you say? Which family are you from? What happened to my Qingxue?" After hearing what Sun Xiaomao said, Mrs. Lin almost fainted. Fortunately, Aunt Lin next to her supported her in time.
"I'm the grandson of the village chief of Sunjia Village. Sun Daniu just came to my house to look for my grandfather and asked me to go over and seek justice. He said that Lin held her father-in-law hostage at knifepoint because the Sun family sold her two daughters, Daya and Erya, and used the money to pay for the three sons of the first wife's schooling."
Although Sun Xiaomao was only seven or eight years old, he was very articulate and quickly explained the whole story to the Lin family.
Sun Xiaomao explained it so clearly, how could the Lin family not understand? It was precisely because they understood that they became even angrier.
"Qingming's father, go to the village and find a few families who are on good terms with our family. Ask them to follow you to Sunjia Village and bring Qingxue and the child back. The eldest, second, and third brothers, grab your weapons. We will go to the Sun family to seek justice for your sister. The two younger ones will stay home to take care of the children. The women will go with you to see if Qingxue is injured. Otherwise, why wouldn't she come home to ask for help?"
Old Man Lin couldn't help choking up as he spoke. He didn't know how serious Qingxue's injury was. His granddaughter, who had been raised in the palm of his hand, suffered so much grievance after going to her husband's house. How helpless she must be alone!
The Lin family also thought about Lin Qingxue's personality. She had always been gentle and easy-going, but she would point a knife at her father-in-law. What did the Sun family force her to do? They made such a well-behaved girl do this. Damn the Sun family.
"Don't tell anyone that I came to report the news, otherwise it will be difficult for my grandfather to live in the village," Sun Xiaomao said. He wanted to run away, but he was worried that the Lin family would tell everyone that he came to report the news and bring a sack to his grandfather, so he couldn't help but say something and then ran home.
The Lin family rushed towards Sunjia Village with weapons in hand. After hearing about Lin Qingxue's story, everyone was filled with anger.
Most of the people in the village are relatives within the fifth degree of mourning. Although there are occasional dirty things, everyone is still very united on major issues.
