Lin Jianguo and his son came back from the city on the afternoon of the fifth day of the lunar month.
Lin Jianguo took his son Lin Xiong to the city, only saying that he would show him the world without telling him the truth.
After a trip to the provincial capital and seeing its prosperity, Lin Xiong became more and more eager to live a good life. When he came back, he talked to Deng Xiuzhi about the feasting and feasting in the provincial capital, which made him drool with envy.
Deng Xiuzhi also wanted to live a good life, but she knew that it could only be a dream.
As soon as Lin Jianguo came back, he was pulled into the room by Sun Guixiang. He closed the door tightly and asked in a low voice with a serious look on his face: "How did you find out? Can you go back to the provincial capital?"
Lin Jianguo smoked low-quality cigarettes continuously, frowning slightly: "I can't blatantly inquire about this matter, which is a matter of life and death, so I asked a few people, and they all said that the case has not been closed yet."
Sun Guixiang said dissatisfied: "It's been seventeen years, why don't you close the case?"
Lin Jianguo sighed: "This is what the national law stipulates. As long as the murder case is not solved, it cannot be closed."
Sun Guixiang asked disappointedly: "Then we still can't go back to the city?"
She has had enough of the poor life in the countryside and just wants to go back to the city.
Lin Jianguo thought for a moment, took a few puffs of the cigarette butt until it almost burned his fingers, and then threw it away: "That's not necessarily true, let's wait until we are severely beaten.
It doesn't matter if the murder case isn't solved by then.
Seventeen years have passed and the police will never be able to solve the case. What impact can an unsolved case have on us?"
Sun Guixiang would not be able to return to the city for a while, and it was useless to be anxious, so she asked Lin Xiong to find his wife to give her the New Year's money that Lin Mai gave to his two sons.
While Sun Guixiang and his wife were talking behind closed doors, Deng Xiuzhi also called her man into the room to talk privately.
She had already told Lin Xiong everything that happened when Lin Mai returned to her parents' home on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year.
When it was mentioned that Sun Guixiang even robbed Lin Mai of the five cents he gave to Big Dog Brothers to buy marbles, Deng Xiuzhi was filled with indignation:
"Come and judge, when our children have grown so big, what did your mother feed them? What did they buy?
As long as there is food, clothing and clothing at home, your mother will give almost all to your eldest sister, and no one will get even a cent!
I won't argue with this. Why did she not let go of the few cents Maizi gave my son?!
After snatching away those few cents, your mother is still not satisfied, and even tries to give the two children some lucky money!
What do you think your mother does with the two yuan of new year's money? She wants to make new clothes for your eldest sister!
Lin Xiong, don’t blame me for not warning you, if you dare to ask for these two yuan of new year’s money for your mother, our marriage will be over!”
Although the marriage between Lin Xiong and Deng Xiuzhi was arranged by their parents, they got married first and then fell in love. They were harmonious and Lin Xiong always listened to Deng Xiuzhi.
In addition, Sun Guixiang went too far when it came to giving her two children lucky money.
So when Sun Guixiang asked him to go to his wife to ask Maizi for the new year's money for his two children, Lin Xiong exploded on the spot.
She yelled at her biological mother: "If you want to love your eldest daughter, I won't stop you. What do you mean by giving my child New Year's money?"
How will you rely on your eldest daughter to support you in old age in the future? All the benefits of the family must be given to her!
Even if you really rely on your eldest daughter to support you in the future, you can't have any ideas on my two children. What do they owe you?"
Sun Guixiang asked in every possible way: "I'm good to you, but I'm not doing it for you and your wife?
Whether our family can turn around and whether your family of four can live a good life in the future all depends on Cai Chu.
If you marry well, you will be able to take care of our family and you.
If she doesn’t dress up beautifully, who is going to like her?"
If the murder case can't be solved for a day, her family will have little hope of returning to Jiangcheng via the route they took seventeen years ago, and the risk will be huge.
Then we can only rely on Lin Bei to marry a good family and bring them from the mountains to the county town.
Although the county town is far inferior to Jiangcheng, it does not require farming at all.
Sun Guixiang now regards Lin Bei as her family's only hope of leaving the mountains, so how could she not be kind to her wholeheartedly!
Deng Xiuzhi walked out of the room, leaned against the door frame and said sarcastically: "You believe in the pie painted by your eldest daughter, but we don't believe it!
All I know is that before Maizi got married, he worked as a cow and horse for the family.
After getting married, I went back to my parents' house and found out that each of my two nephews gave me one yuan as a new year's gift.
Your eldest daughter only knows how to suck the blood of the whole family and has never given any benefit to my two children, let alone us!
I’ve finally seen through it, anyone who believes in the pie she painted is a fucking idiot!”
Sun Guixiang was so angry that her face turned red and her neck thickened when her daughter-in-law accused her of being a fool.
Her mother quarreled with her brother and sister-in-law over her, so Lin Bei hid in her room and remained silent.
As a senior white lotus bitch, Lin Bei knows how to let others charge into battle for her benefit, and she stays out of it.
No matter what the situation ends up being, as the ultimate beneficiary, she can put on an innocent face and show that it has nothing to do with her, so that the people who are being plotted will hate the people who fought for her.
But seeing Sun Guixiang defeated, she had to step forward.
Lin Bei had no choice but to fight in person.
Before she could speak, her eyes welled up with tears, as if someone had given her a huge grievance.
She cried out to Deng Xiuzhi bitterly: "Sister-in-law!" and then began her tearful performance: "When I become rich in the future, I will give Big Gou and Er Gou more New Year's money, and I will also take you all out of the mountains!"
Deng Xiuzhi rolled her eyes in disdain and said, "Can you believe a word of your nonsense?
Just because you are fighting for food and drink with my two children at home, you will never be nice to our two children in the future!"
Ever since Lin Mai was tricked by Lin Bei into marrying Wu Xiaoyu, and what Lin Mai said to her, Deng Xiuzhi could clearly see Lin Bei's selfish and cold-blooded nature.
She can ruin her own sister's life for the sake of her own future. Don't expect her to treat anyone kindly or win over anyone with such a vicious person.
Lin Bei saw that Deng Xiuzhi was out of touch and knew that she would never be able to use her again.
Since she is a loser, then deal with her!
She has always had this character: those who follow me will prosper, and those who go against me will perish.
Lin Bei glanced at Sun Guixiang, who was so angry that her chest hurt, and filial piety helped her sit down on a chair.
He frowned and said to Lin Xiong: "Brother, I don't complain about anything my sister-in-law does to me. Who told me to be younger? I have to respect my sister-in-law!"
But...sister-in-law shouldn't be so angry with mom. It's the Chinese New Year, so why can't she let mom have a relaxing time for two days?
Mom works hard for this family and us all year round, we can't be so unfilial!" After that, she continued to complain.
Deng Xiuzhi looked at Lin Bei with nausea and vomiting: "Are you saying that I am unfilial?"
Lin Bei bit her lip and said nothing, but looked at Lin Xiong forbearingly.
That look in his eyes was clearly asking Lin Xiong for help: Your mother and sister were bullied by your daughter-in-law, at least you can do something!
Seeing Lin Bei's silence, Deng Xiuzhi snorted coldly and continued: "You are filial, you can see your mother's life and death, why don't you usually help with some housework within your ability!"
Lin Bei even closed her mouth tightly.
But I was cursing disdainfully in my heart: You are all my tools, and you are all destined to serve me. Let me do housework? It will not be possible in the next life!
After Deng Xiuzhi finished quarreling with Lin Bei, she turned around and said to Lin Xiong angrily: "Are you a fool or something? I didn't hear that your eldest sister was accusing me of being unfilial and provoking you to beat me! Hit me quickly and kill her.
Meaning!"
Lin Bei underestimated Lin Xiong's obedience to Deng Xiuzhi.
She provoked Lin Xiong to beat Deng Xiuzhi, but Lin Xiong showed no reaction at all.
When Deng Xiuzhi revealed her intentions, Lin Xiong immediately beat her to the ground and said, "I asked you to stir up trouble, but I can't beat you to death, you family troublemaker!"
Lin Xiong is a bit clumsy and doesn't know the severity of hitting people.
Sun Guixiang and his wife were afraid that he would beat up Lin Bei, so they all came to interfere with him.
The commotion was so loud that many villagers came to watch.
