Capítulo 36: Scared Away
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The man was Lin Sanshui's eldest nephew, the eldest son of the first branch of the Lin family, Lin Dashan.
Lin Sanshui still did not know what had happened.
Looking at Mrs. Zhang, who was jumping around in the courtyard, Lin Sanshui said with a headache, "Xiaoniu's mother, don't cry and make a fuss here. There are many people in our village here. How did we bully you? You have to say it so that everyone can judge. Look at you kept moving around. You can't even speak clearly. We don't know what happened either. How can we solve the problem?"
The villagers did not know who was in the right and who was in the wrong. However, they were biased toward Lin Sanhu because of how Lin Sanshui and Mrs. Zhang interacted.
Mrs. Zhang immediately stopped her thunderous crying and pointed at Xiaoniu's forehead. "Lin Sanshui, do you see my son's forehead? Do you dare to say that this isn't Xiaohu's fault? You have to compensate us today, or else I won't let this go!"
As she spoke, Mrs. Zhang suddenly sniffed and looked at the kitchen. Her eyes flashed with unconcealed greed.
When she heard that this matter was related to Xiaohu, Mrs. Jiang hurriedly waved at him. "Xiaohu, come here. I want to ask you, did you cause the wound on Xiaoniu's forehead?"
Xiaohu was already scared out of his wits. He shook his head and said, "It wasn't me. I went out with Third Brother to find pigweed today. I didn't see Xiaoniu."
Mrs. Jiang heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. She turned around and said, "See. Xiaohu said he didn't see Xiaoniu today, let alone hit him.
"So what if he didn't do anything? He lied to Xiaoniu. Otherwise, our Xiaoniu wouldn't have been so honest and kowtowed his head. I don't care. Xiaohu caused my son to injure himself, so you have to take responsibility!" Mrs. Zhang was pestering Lin Sanshui. She didn't care if she had drawn attention.
Lin Sanshui was enraged as well. "I don't want to be bothered by a woman like you. If you want justice, go back and get your man here!
With that, Lin Sanshui looked at Lin Dashan and said, "Dashan, go home and call your parents, as well as your second uncle and second aunt. We will have dinner tonight."
Lin Sanshui and Mrs. Jiang had already discussed the matter of eating, but Mrs. Zhang didn't know about it. When he said this, Mrs. Zhang was suddenly startled and said in shock, "What are you guys doing? Do you still want to fight?"
Not only did Mrs. Zhang think this way, but most spectators also thought this way.
Lin Sanshui did not explain but urged Lin Dashan. "Why are you still standing there? Hurry up!"
"Ah, yes!" Lin Dashan was shocked as well. His eyes flickered as he looked at Lin Sanshui with uncertainty.
His third uncle had always been an honest man, and he rarely looked for trouble. Why did he make a big deal out of it today?
Although the Zhang family was despicable, Lin Sanshui seemed a bit overreacted.
Lin Dashan left with a heavy heart.
When Mrs. Zhang brought Xiaoniu out, she didn't tell her family. When Mrs. Zhang saw the situation turned south, she immediately pulled Xiaoniu and ran. She cursed, "Lin Sanshui, don't think you're the only one with a large family. Our family isn't to be trifled with. If you dare to order people to beat us up, don't even think about ending this matter peacefully!"
So what if Lin Sanshui called reinforcement? She also had a few brothers in her family.
Mrs. Zhang gave birth to many daughters in a row. Yet, she could still stand firm in her husband's house because of the strong background of her maternal family.
