Reborn as a Rich Woman in the Eighties-Chapter 307 - 306: Injustice Strikes Panic

Qian Chunli suffered an acute stroke and was rescued, but she needed someone by her side to take care of her, and at that time, it was impossible for Lin Aiguo to serve her.

Afterward, Qian Jiang immediately returned to the village to bring someone back to care for her.

After Qian Chunli’s incident, Qian Chunlei and his brothers took Lin Aiguo to the staircase landing and talked with him for a long time.

The gist of their conversation was to advise reconciliation and not separation, promising that as long as he didn’t divorce Qian Chunli, they would never find fault with Lin Xia and the others, keeping to their own waters.

Lin Aiguo considered that Lin Qiang had indeed been sentenced too harshly for many years, and he was also worried that if he abandoned Qian Chunli now, he would not only be talked about behind his back by others, but all these people from the Qian family would go after Lin Xia and the others for revenge.

With Lin Xia and Lin Qiu, the two women, usually living at home, and Lin Dong still residing in the dormitory, how would they cope if something happened?

Therefore, he chose to temporarily put up with Qian Chunli, but he made an agreement with Qian Chunlei and the others. The moment anyone from the Qian family disturbed Lin Xia and the others, he would immediately divorce Qian Chunli and send her back to the village.

If it wasn’t for Qian Chunli’s mother coming down to take care of her, there wouldn’t even be anyone by Qian Chunli’s side to feed her medicine or give her water.

During the days Qian’s mother came down from the village to tend to her daughter in the hospital, she also understood the whole story from the complaints she used to hear from her.

The children they left behind had now become powerful and different from before, so there was no need to always be fighting a losing battle.

Besides, they were the ones who had started the trouble. Even though the others had become successful, they had no thoughts of revenge against them.

Taking advantage of the empty hospital room, she earnestly advised Qian Chunli, who was lying in bed sighing and groaning, "Chunli, Qiangzi is already imprisoned, so stop making things worse.

These days, there’s talk of those who won’t accept their sentences being given an additional five or ten years, or even execution. Why bother with this? If you behave well inside, you might even get your sentence reduced!"

The old lady loved her grandson dearly. Who wouldn’t feel sad and pained by such events? But one had to be realistic at some point.

Qian Chunli’s tears had been incessant, her eyes swollen to slits, filled with boundless resentment.

She slurred her words, "Mom! Qiangzi has been wrongfully imprisoned! He didn’t kill or set fires, yet he was sentenced to ten years! It’s all that bitch’s fault. If she had just bowed her head and agreed to let Qiangzi off, withdrawn the case, and we hadn’t hit the crackdown, perhaps there would have been no trouble... I won’t let her off even in death!"

She put all the blame on Lin Xia!

But she never considered that if her own son hadn’t committed the crime, if he had just stayed at home honestly, nobody could have touched him!

The old lady wiped away tears, "Chunli, if you keep thinking this way, what’s left for you in the future?

Ah! It’s just our family’s Qiangzi’s bad luck hitting at the worst time. I heard that those who committed crimes before also got heavy sentences. You better stop thinking about it and focus on recovering. Now Lin Aiguo hasn’t abandoned you, and he’s letting you go home to recuperate after leaving the hospital, which is already quite good."

She was clear-headed, understanding that if Lin Aiguo truly abandoned her second daughter at this time, they would have no recourse.

Returning to the village, given her condition requiring care, where would she find shelter?

Now, bedridden and ill, Qian Chunli was eager for revenge against Lin Xia but was utterly incapable of doing so.

With her functional right hand, she furiously pounded the bed. "Lin Aiguo is just guilty! He wouldn’t dare abandon me! If he does, I’ll lay down in front of his workplace and kill myself! Make him end up in a big prison too! How ruthless of him, I begged him so much, if he had just lent a hand, would Qiangzi be in this state now..." She was sobbing uncontrollably, the thought of her son spending ten years in prison was more painful than death.

"Chunli, when you see him, don’t talk such angry words! If he gets angry, he might really leave you. Where would you go then?"

The old lady also teared up, remembering how many people had once envied her for having a daughter with good fortune, a woman who could marry and have children in the village. Later, as a widow, she astonishingly found a worker and even changed their entire family’s household registration to the city.

The children were all bound to be successful, who could have imagined that the second daughter would end up like this!

But who is to blame for all this in the end?

Qian Chunli was well aware that Lin Aiguo was keeping her at home now simply to maintain a good reputation and avoid gossip.

But if she really angered Lin Aiguo, she feared she would not even have a place to stay.

"Mom! I feel so suffocated! Why is my life so hard..." Both mother and daughter began to cry woefully.

Perhaps crying had relieved some of Qian Chunli’s pain, for she stopped crying and asked the elderly lady, "Mom! When are my elder brother and younger brother coming to see me?"

She was bedridden, but she could not just do nothing, could she? Her heart felt so heavy it seemed there was no room left for air.

The son was behind bars, she had suffered a stroke and was half-paralyzed, and her daughter Lin Yu no longer went to school or came home; when she fell ill and sought her daughter, she could find no one.

"In a few days, there’s a lot to do at home right now!" the old lady soothed her.

Now, whom could the second daughter turn to if she wanted to settle scores?

It would still have to be her sons and grandsons to back her up and do things from behind the scenes, but with the current crackdown, one misstep could lead to a heavy sentence. She would not let such a thing happen, even for her own family.

Besides, since Lin Aiguo had agreed not to abandon the second daughter, they could not take any action. If they did and Lin Aiguo found out, divorce would await the daughter.

If she got divorced and returned to the village, who would accept her? Where would she belong?

So now, her son, her daughter-in-law, her grandson, and the entire family had all agreed not to get involved in the second daughter’s household affairs, to avoid bringing disaster upon themselves and ending up behind bars!

Therefore, Qian Chunli now had no one to turn to for support.

Lin Aiguo had finished work but did not return home. With no one else at home and no inclination to cook for himself, he directly went to his sister Lin Aijia’s place instead.

Lin Aijia worked close to her home, and they had their meals early; they were just finished with dinner and ready to clean up the table.

Yu Changbai and Yu Hongli were sitting on the edge of the kang, smoking.

"Big brother’s here! Have you eaten?"

"Not yet!"

Knowing he hadn’t eaten, Lin Aijia hurriedly asked Lin Fang to fetch some bowls and chopsticks.

Lin Aiguo only saw Yu Hongli and Lin Fang; not seeing Yu Hongmei, he asked, "Has Hongmei not finished work yet?"

As Lin Aijia was clearing the used dishes and utensils, she replied, "She went to her mother-in-law’s place for dinner today! The Cao family are discussing a wedding..." ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

"Ah! They’ve been talking for several years now, it’s about time..." Lin Aiguo took the rice Lin Fang had served him and began to eat.

Yu Changbai, knowing that his uncle had matters to discuss with Lin Aijia and her brother, took his son and Lin Fang to the next room.

Looking at the much thinner Lin Aiguo, Lin Aijia sighed. With Qian Chunli paralyzed, her son sentenced to prison, and the whereabouts of Lin Yu unknown, her big brother was truly suffering.

Lin Aijia felt indignant just thinking about it, "Big brother! Have you really thought it through, to keep her like this from now on?"
