My Beloved Super Fierce Wife-Chapter 84 This is cold violence

Lin Shou really didn’t know what to do with his wife. She was so stubborn, she simply didn’t listen to reason.

To become mother and daughter, what a great fate that is.

Just because she could no longer have children, she blamed an infant who didn’t understand anything. He couldn’t comprehend it at all.

Zhang Hongyan’s expression was obstinate, and her complexion looked very unsightly.

She didn’t soften her tone either.

"We do have Qingya, but Qingya doesn’t even have a brother.

What are we going to do when we’re old and if something happens to Qingya?

I don’t know what you’re thinking, but I’m not at ease.

That’s why, when I see Lin Xiaojing, I just..."

Her father was bullied, taken advantage of by the village people, and even ridiculed... all because he didn’t have any brothers.

It was the same for her.

She had been bullied all her life.

It wasn’t until she married Lin Shou that things improved quite a lot.

At the root of it all, wasn’t it because the Lin Family had many brothers?

Lin Shou gave her a look that was somewhat beyond words.

"Who says Qingya has no brothers? Aren’t Blue Mountain and the others his brothers? What do you think of them then?"

"You can mistrust everyone, but you can rest assured about our Lin Family.

I dare to say that even if I never have a son for the rest of my life, Blue Mountain and the others won’t ignore me."

Zhang Hongyan was rarely silent.

She knew the head of the family spoke sensibly.

But, she still felt uneasy in her heart.

As long as the elders are around, it’s fine.

But if we’re not around, who can be certain about the future?

As her husband for decades, Lin Shou knew very well what she was thinking.

He was about to say more...

But then, Lin Qingya, who had just heard that his own sister had jumped into the river, came running towards the riverside. When he arrived, the crowd had already dispersed.

Lin Qingya saw his parents and seemed to notice that they had argued, and he faintly heard his sister’s name mentioned.

Not sure what to think, he swiftly hid behind a tree.

After listening carefully to his parents’ conversation, Lin Qingya stepped out from behind the tree.

"Mom, what Dad said is right. With so many cousins, how can I have no brothers?

If you really care about my well-being, please be kinder to my sister.

If Xiaojing wants to get married, let her marry; if not, even if she stays at home for a lifetime, I’ll support her."

The young man’s expression was full of determination.

He felt endless pity for his sister in his heart.

He had always known that his mother didn’t like Xiaojing; he just assumed she was like those village women who favored sons over daughters.

Only today did he realize that Mom’s dislike for Xiaojing was actually all because of him.

Lin Qingya thought of his diligent little sister and felt a pang of sourness and discomfort squeeze his heart harshly.

The sudden appearance of Lin Qingya took Lin Shou and his wife by surprise.

Zhang Hongyan’s face stiffened, and looking at her son, she asked, "Qingya, did you hear all that?"

Lin Qingya nodded, and once again tried to persuade her, "I heard."

"Mom, Xiaojing is also your child, and she’s so diligent, doing everything without complaints at home. Please be nicer to her."

Lin Shou looked at his son with a face full of relief.

This is how it should be among siblings.

Zhang Hongyan didn’t feel she had been unfair to Lin Xiaojing. Immediately dissatisfied, she said:

"When have I ever been unfair to her? If I didn’t care for her, would I have spent money to let her go to school?

In the village, besides Tangtang and her, which other girl goes to school?"

They are all ungrateful.

Lin Qingya sighed, and replied, "You never outright mistreated Xiaojing, but you ignored her.

"You treat my little sister as if she’s invisible.

She never gets praise for doing good deeds.

You never ask when she’s sick,

You never care about her feelings...

Mom, haven’t you noticed that Xiaojing is closer to my first and second aunts than to you?"

This time, who knows how much bitterness she had accumulated in her heart to have the resolve to jump into the river.

Although Zhang Hongyan was obstinate, faced with the combined pressure of her husband and son, she finally relented.

"Alright, I get it."

Lin Qingya saw his mother agree and exchanged a glance with Lin Shou.

Father and son had a plan in mind.

The Lin Family’s old couple and the second branch returned to the village.

Lin Tang and his siblings watched their grandparents support each other ahead, showing they were used to it.

Grandpa only had eyes for Grandma, and Grandma’s heart was also only for Grandpa.

The younger generations like themselves were all accidents.

Lin Xiuyuan patted Zhao Shuzhen’s hand, with a low chuckle in his voice.

"Still unhappy?"

"Hmph, what do I have to be unhappy about?" Zhao Shuzhen retorted stubbornly, "The family has divided its property, the girl belongs to the third son’s family; if she doesn’t feel pained, what can I do about it?"

Her words were clearly insincere.

She was very dissatisfied with Zhang Hongyan forcing her granddaughter to jump into the river.

What kind of mother does that?

Lin Xiuyuan smiled, his once handsome and open-minded face shining through.

"If you’re dissatisfied with the third son’s wife, just bring Xiaojing back to the old mansion and raise her yourself.

After all, you are her real grandmother. Just say you want your granddaughter by your side, and it’s unlikely the third son and his wife will refuse."

Zhao Shuzhen thought for a moment and said, "That’s an idea, but let’s see how things go first."

Even if she was willing, she still had to ask if Xiaojing was willing.

Lin Qingshan took Lin Xiaojing to the old mansion.

Lin Tang and his mother returned home.

Li Xiuli took some brown sugar from the house.

"Tangtang, take this brown sugar to Xiaojing, and while you’re there, try to persuade her.

You’re about the same age as Xiaojing; she might be willing to listen to you."

"Okay, I’ll go right now."

Lin Tang agreed, took the brown sugar, and then left the courtyard.

Zhou Mei felt the pinch over that bit of brown sugar.

But then she thought that the stuff belonged to her in-laws and it had nothing to do with her, so she reluctantly looked away.

Soon after, she came back.

With a gossip-hungry look, she asked, "Mom, why do you think Xiaojing jumped into the river? Was it because Auntie Three pushed her to it?"

No way, no way, Xiaojing is her own daughter, isn’t she?

Auntie Three must really have a heart of stone.

Li Xiuli heard Zhou Mei’s prattling and her eyelids twitched.

Her voice suddenly took on an angry tone.

She shouted towards the outside of the kitchen, "Qingshui, come in here."

Lin Qingshui heard his mother’s voice and quickly entered the kitchen.

"Qingshui, keep your wife in line, she’s too loose with her words.

Are elders something you younger ones can talk about carelessly?"

Zhou Mei was flustered.

She had no idea what she had done to displease her mother-in-law again.

Distracted for a moment,

she was promptly pulled out of the kitchen by Lin Qingshui.

"...What did I say, I was just concerned about Xiaojing," Zhou Mei said confusedly.

Lin Qingshui curiously asked, "How were you showing concern?"

After hearing his wife’s words, his face displayed a massive speechlessness.

"Is that how you show concern? Then you better not show concern anymore."

Luckily, they were still at home.

If they were outside, who knows how outsiders would gossip about their family?

This foolish wife simply didn’t know how to speak.

After saying that, Lin Qingshui went to the backyard.

Zhou Mei hastily followed him, calling out loudly.

"Hey, don’t go, explain to me what you mean by ’don’t show concern anymore’?"

Li Xiuli heard this and shook her head helplessly.

They truly were a contentious pair!

Lin Tang arrived at the entrance of the old mansion and happened to run into his eldest brother and sister-in-law just coming out.

"Tangtang, why are you here again?" Lin Qingshan asked.

Lin Tang shook the brown sugar in his hand, "Mom sent me to bring brown sugar, is everything resolved?"
