Shrewd wife of Lin brothers

Chapter 512 What a sin

” Mother, its hurts so much!” Lin Ze has been living the time of his life, ever since he started to work with Lord Xing, little did he expect that he would suffer like this, ” Ah, my legs. It hurts so much, do something mother.”

Grandma Lin was jumping around like an ant on a hot pan, she wanted to do something but because the injuries Lin Ze received weren’t something she could see, doctor Gu and Village head Luo had locked her out of her the room, now she can only hop outside Lin Ze’s room and listen to her precious son’s screams. She was so angry at the bastard who did this to her but there was nothing she could do about it, in the end, she just waddled here and then waddled there if only she could –

While she was brooding in her thoughts, her gaze fell on Zhang Xiaohui who was heading to the fields with a hoe hoisted up on her shoulder and immediately her temper that she was suppressing jumped through the roof. ” You slut! What are doing? Where the hell do you think you are going?”

Zhang Xiaohui put the hoe down and looked at her mother in law, she would admit that she wasn’t an exceptional daughter in law but at least she fulfilled all her duties including giving birth to a grandson for her but still- she sighed and clenched the hoe in her hands. ” I am heading to the fields, my husband will require money for his treatment and we don’t have any money at hand currently. The remaining was robbed away by the thieves who attacked husband last night, if I don’t work then how will we pay for his treatment?”

Her words were reasonable and what was more than the shrew Zhang Xiaohui, who didn’t know how to work and only laze around was the one saying it! Thus, the impact of these words was great on the crowd that was watching the show was great, they all at once believed that under the tyranny of her mother in law and husband, Zhang Xiaohui have learned to be responsible. There were no secrets in the village and everyone knew that ever since Uncle Wu broke Lin Ze’s legs, all the work has befallen on Zhang Xiaohui and her sister in law, there were so many members in the Lin family, even if Lin Ze broke his legs it wasn’t the turn of these two women who should be staying at home and doing household chores to do the hard work in the fields. 

There was also Lin Che and grandma Lin who were still strong and sturdy, yet they stayed at home all day and did nothing. On the other hand, even Lin Yunxi passed her days playing around with her friends.

” Sister Xiaohui, how can you go to the fields under these circumstances?” said An Xia, smilingly mockingly as she added fuel to fire,” Don’t you think that at times like these you should stay with Brother Ze and take care of him? Just listen to his painful screams, how can you even think about heading to the fields, at this moment?”

An Xia looked down on the Lin Family and she severely looked down on Lin Ze but she still her vanity was great, she wanted to take a husband to hide her illicit deeds that she did with Xing Bengt but at the same time she thought that it was a sheer embarrassment for her to become a villager’s secondary wife. If Lin Ze was a minister she would have thought about it but he wasn’t and that was enough to douse her excitement of getting married again, Lin Ze might be just a sacrificial fool with whom she hooked up but she didn’t want to share her sacrificial lamb with anyone either. 

Thus, she has been fanning the flames from the side, such that the family would come to a conclusive decision. 

Just as An Xia expected Grandma Lin exploded as she lunged at Zhang Xiaohui, ” you- you are shameless, my son is crying in the room but you are still thinking about running out of the house, ahhh what sin I committed that I got a daughter in law like you?” These days Grandma Lin had no qualms about raising her hands on Zhang Xiaohui, she would hit her if there was too much salt in the food, hit her if the clothes weren’t dry and would continue to hit her if the house wasn’t properly cleaned, in short as long as she felt even the slightest bit of discomfort she would hit her daughter in law.

Her thinking was simple, An Xia was going to marry in her family, she was also carrying her grandson, thus Zhang Xiaohui who has been acting like a tyrant has lost her footing. A middle-aged woman with no backing where will she go? Nowhere! So, there was no need to worry about Zhang Xiaohui’s retaliation.

Generally, Zhang Xiaohui would have fought back by now but today she let Grandma Zhang pull her hair and wildly beat her in front of the villagers, she didn’t fight back but instead curled on the ground and shrieked in pain.

Old Grandma Lin didn’t even bother to listen to her painful screams, she kept pulling Zhang Xiaohui’s hair as she scolded her at the same time. 

”It’s your fault, you are a jinx! Ever since my son married you, all his business has been failing one after another. It must be you who cursed my son and had this misfortune befall on him, it’s you! I will beat you to death,  I will beat you to death.”

Her son just started to live a good life yet all of a sudden just in a day, he lost everything. Grandma Lin was bewildered and she vented all her rage on Zhang Xiaohui. 

Zhang Xiaohui was burning with rage, each time Grandma Lin hit her, the rage in her heart kept on building. She looked at her two children who looked away at once, sixteen years- she had given sixteen years to this family but enough was enough!
