The Lin Family had been in the city for a long time and didn’t know about Lin Xiang’s "achievements." They were puzzled when the mother and son started pulling at each other’s clothes, as many people from the Lin Family crowded in, making the already small courtyard even more cramped. Lin Xiang pointed at Lin the Fourth, who had rolled his sleeves up to his arms, and loudly accused, "Uncles, aunts, elders, it’s Lin the Fourth bullying our widow and orphan family!" Lin the Fourth had never witnessed such a scene before. Did half of the Li Hua Team come to denounce them? Previously, Zhao Xiuli and her daughter had a bad reputation, and not many in the village could stand them. What changed recently that everyone is standing up for them? "Lin Xiang, is this how your mother taught you?" "Lin the Fourth, is this how your mother taught you?" Lin Xiang retorted, hands on her hips, "Don’t say I sold a job slot for eight hundred yuan, but even if I did, who are you to ask me for money? What do you think you are?" "I am your fourth uncle!" "Yes, yes, you’re my fourth uncle, the fourth uncle who took away our only valuable sewing machine right after my father’s funeral. The fourth uncle whose help I begged for when my mom was sold by my aunt, only for you to beat me and chase me away with a broom. Having such a good fourth uncle really is my blessing!" Thinking about how Lin the Fourth treated her before, Lin Xiang was infuriated! Even Lin the Fourth didn’t expect that after a period of not seeing each other, Lin Xiang had become so articulate and what she said was undeniably true, leaving him unable to rebut. Mrs. Lin Sr. looked at Lin Xiang’s aggressive demeanor, exclaimed twice, and leaned into her daughter-in-law’s arms. Upon seeing this, Lin the Fourth started to blame Lin Xiang, "Girl, if you don’t want to give us money, forget it, but how could you speak ? See, look at what you’ve done to your grandma?" "My grandma? My grandma has been resting in peace for long! Not every elderly woman can be my grandma, or else under heaven, everyone would be my grandma, and I’d spend all my time bowing and greeting grandmas!" Lin Xiang dug her ear, "I’m not deaf; you don’t have to shout so loud to call me." By the time the Team Leader and Secretary arrived, Mrs. Lin Sr. had already fainted from Lin Xiang’s anger. Lin Xiang bounded behind the Team Leader for protection, "Uncle, you really have to help us; otherwise, we won’t even be able to keep these three broken rooms!" Mrs. Lin: Though the house is indeed worn out, there’s no need to be so straightforward! "What exactly happened, clarify." "Uncle, I came back from town just now and saw Lin the Fourth’s wife and his daughter-in-law hitting my mother together. Look at what they’ve done to my mom." The Team Leader looked in the direction Lin Xiang pointed; Mrs. Lin’s hair was messy like a bunch of dried grass, her clothes were torn, and injuries on her face might have been from yesterday’s beating by the Wang Family or today from Lin the Fourth’s wife, but she indeed seemed seriously hurt. Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⚫𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖⚫𝕟𝕖𝕥 "Lin the Fourth and his two sons even bullied my brother!" Lin Yun hurriedly said, "In the afternoon, my mother and I were making sweet potato powder in the courtyard, Lin the Fourth’s family barged in without knocking, didn’t say a word, and hit me on the back of my head with a stick. There’s still a lump on my head now." If it hadn’t been for Lin the Fourth’s eldest son sneaking an attack when Lin Yun wasn’t prepared, not just the three of them, even if two more came, they wouldn’t be a match for Lin Yun. The Secretary reached out and felt a big lump indeed. Lin Xiang immediately fumed, "You’re not only extorting but also attempted murder!" These two words Lin the Fourth’s family had never heard before, but they sounded intimidating. "Girl, don’t talk nonsense!" "Who’s talking nonsense! Your son hit my brother’s head with a stick without a word. Doesn’t everyone know the head is the most fragile part of the human body? You were aiming to kill! If it weren’t for my brother’s good health, just imagine... Brother, what happened!" Before Lin Xiang finished her sentence, Lin Yun collapsed. If it weren’t for Lin Yun winking at Lin Xiang before fainting, with his brilliant acting, Lin Xiang would’ve thought he was seriously injured! The whole family are drama queens! "Brother, don’t scare me! Team Leader, I need to quickly send my brother to the hospital. Could you help report this to the police and have the whole Lin the Fourth family arrested?" The Team Leader hesitated, "Girl, is it really necessary to report to the police?" "Huh?" Lin Xiang looked at the Team Leader, "Team Leader, my brother is unconscious. They attempted murder and extorted us; isn’t this serious enough to report to the police?" "You’re still family..." "Family with them!" Mrs. Lin cursed, "My Lin the Second was raised single-handedly by his elder brother; that dead old woman never took care of him for a day! Neither I, nor my daughter, nor Lin Yun ate a single mouthful from their family. How are we supposed to be family?" "Even if we hadn’t divided the family, do they think they could reason by coming to beat us and rob money? Team Leader, yesterday the Wang Family bullied us, you didn’t seek justice for us; now you want us to reconcile when we’re being attacked again today? Are we mother and children worthless?" No need to describe oneself like that. "Second wife, I know you’re aggrieved. I’ll mediate this matter and seek justice for you. But reporting to the police isn’t necessary. The year-end is approaching, reporting to the police would make a big fuss and affect Li Hua Team’s reputation and make it difficult to be rated as advanced." Lin Xiang showed a cold face, "Team Leader, the Li Hua Team being rated as advanced is more important than our lives?" Yesterday, when the Team Leader didn’t step in, Lin Xiang could still consider that he didn’t want to offend the Wang Family. After all, the Wang Family was powerful, virtually domineering in the Li Hua Team, it was somewhat understandable if the Team Leader didn’t want to take chances with them. Today when Lin Yun was hit unconscious and the Team Leader still hesitated, it was less acceptable. Lin Xiang’s respect for the Team Leader completely vanished. The Team Leader frowned, "I’ve already said, I’ll personally mediate for you. There’s no need to escalate to the police station. Lin Xiang, you need to consider the bigger picture and think about our Li Hua Team." "Fine, I’ll think about it for you." Lin Xiang said, "But my brother was injured and fainted, he should at least be taken to the hospital." Lin Xiang turned to Mrs. Lin, "Mom, take out the twenty yuan reward Director Chen gave me last time, let Liu You accompany my brother to the town hospital. I’ll stay with you to see how the Team Leader plans to get justice for us!"
