Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After all, Su Shen’s pig farm was renowned in this region, bringing prosperity to the villagers as well. Coupled with the presence of influential figures at the wedding, who would dare to offend the Su family now?

Upon hearing Aunt Zhang’s words, the women’s scowls vanished instantly, replaced by ingratiating smiles. “We women do love to gossip, but we never mean any harm, Aunt Zhang. Please don’t mention this to Su Shen.”

Aunt Zhang chuckled, showing no mercy. “Since you claim it’s all in good fun, why not let Su Shen in on the joke? He might not even know how popular his wife is, being the subject of your amusement.”

The women blushed, their expressions turning frantic as they rushed to rectify the situation.

“Aunt Zhang, you misunderstood us. We didn’t mean any harm. From now on, I’ll keep quiet. It was them who led me on.”

“How could you say that? You were the one who started it. Aunt Zhang, I was just following their lead.”

“You all change your tune so quickly. You all get along well with Mrs. Wang normally. Now that Mrs. Wang claims that Gu Zi has ruined her relationship with her mother-in-law, Aunt Yang, you all start badmouthing Gu Zi. I’m the Innocent one nere.”

Aunt Zhang watched as the women started bickering amongst themselves. A satisfied smile spread across her face. She turned around, leading her grandson Shi Tou into the house, leaving the women to their accusations.

When Mother Lin and Li Hua returned to Little Lin Village, they felt a sense of unease as soon as they saw their house. The mother and daughter-in-law quickened their pace.

A crowd had gathered in front of the Lin’s house. Seeing the two women return, a villager hurriedly approached Mother Lin. “Oh, thank heavens you’re back. Your husband was injured by Lin Jie from Lin Laoyao’s family. His leg might be crippled. My husband has taken him to the city hospital. They should be there soon. ”

Upon hearing that her husband was injured, Mother Lin nearly collapsed, but was steadied by Li Hua and the woman who fed them the information.

Mother Lin felt that this incident was definitely related to the last time Lin Jie came and didn’t get the retirement money. Lin Jie was a petty man who often loitered around the town. It wasn’t hard for him to stir up trouble.

Li Hua angrily said, “Lin Jie is such a scoundrel! How could he do such a thing!”

Someone added, “We don’t know the specifics, but it all happened in front of your house. Lin Jie brought a few young men over, seemingly intending to force his way in. When your husband refused, they started arguing and then fighting.”

Another villager recalled, “I was working in the fields when I saw Lin Jie and his men go to your field, the sandy one. They trampled all over the vegetables you had painstakingly grown, as if they had a deep grudge against you. Probably unsatisfied, they came directly to your house, and your husband got injured while trying to defend it.”

Someone else chimed in, “I heard Lin Jie demanding the retirement money from your husband. That’s just unacceptable. The retirement money isn’t his to claim.”

Tears streamed down Mother Lin’s face as she listened. The Lin family was ruthless, like blood-sucking vampires. If they couldn’t get what they wanted, they were capable of killing.

Li Hua asked for help, “Could you please go to the pig farm and tell Lin Cheng to go directly to the train station? Mother, let’s put our things away and head to the station as well.”

Mother Lin nodded repeatedly. After putting away their things, the two women headed straight for the train station.

At the pig farm, Lin Cheng was informed that his father had been hospitalized and he became frantic.

Upon learning of the situation, Su Shen immediately drove him back to the Su family home. He then took Gu Zi and Su Le to the train station to meet Mother Lin and the others. The whole family then rushed to the hospital together.

Meanwhile, after injuring Father Lin, Lin Jie returned home. Upon hearing the news, Lin Laoyao slapped his son. “That’s your uncle!”

Only after hitting him did Lin Laoyao realize what he had done. This was the first time he had ever hit Lin Jie, his only son. How could he bear to do so?

His wife rushed over, distressed, and immediately checked their son for injuries. She defended him, “What’s wrong with what Lin Jie did? Lin Lao’er knew Lin Jie was getting married and didn’t even give a gift. We don’t need such a family member.”

Lin Laoyao was furious, “Just because he didn’t give you money, you went to beat him? Are you a bandit?”

But Lin Jie showed no fear and yelled back at Lin Laoyao, “So what if I beat him? What can he do, put me in jail?”

The more Lin Jie thought about it, the angrier he got. His grandmother and mother were too soft-hearted. They hadn’t gotten anything the last time they went, and listening to them would never lead to anything good.

His uncle deserved a lesson. After being taught one, he would surely behave in the future..
