When Old Lady Han and the others came back from the commune, she heard her precious daughter cry very badly. She hurried home and found that her home was ransacked to the point where it looked like a thief had rummaged through her belongings.
Her children-in-law said that the shrew came to snatch the chicken and the eggs. Also, her youngest daughter had claimed that the shrew had grabbed an axe and as she seemed ready to attack someone at any given moment…
In fact, when Han Jinyu was shouting and demanding justice to be served, Han Yongfang was drinking some wine at home and he didn’t bother to care. The other cadres couldn’t care less when they heard that Lin Lan was throwing a fuss. After all, it was common for Lin Lan to lash out. Anyway, she’d either contemplate between hanging herself or drinking pesticides, in which both were used to merely frighten the onlookers around her to get what she wanted. They guessed that her outburst this time was definitely related to the fact that Han Jinbao had caused a commotion in her house and even injured Sanwang. Since Lin Lan couldn’t bear to just sit still and do nothing, she opted to seek death to threaten the Han family once more.
Han Qingyun was still anxious, “Father, won’t you go and take a look?”
Han Yongfang drank a bit more wine, “I’m exhausted from going there almost everyday. There’s nothing to see anyways, so don’t bother.”
“If she tries to take the pesticides again…”
“What have you guys been seeing in her? Looking at her now, do you think she really is going to hang herself or kill herself by drinking pesticides? Just let them settle the issues amongst themselves as a family. They can create a commotion if they so wish since it would do the good to rant and lash out, so as to not create an even larger issue that needs to be taken to court.”
Lin Lan appeared to be different since she drank the pesticides last time. She was now very normal in dealing with both people and matters. She was even polite when she had to be and was a hundred times more concerned about her children compared to her nonchalance before. In a glance, one could tell that she simply wanted to live her life peacefully.
Seeing that she was so anxious about the child just now, it didn’t look like she was seeking death in the slightest. She probably went to her in-law’s house to vent her anger with an axe.
I’ll just let them make a fuss.
Han Yongfang did not come forward, so naturally, the other cadres did not come forward either.
Without the cadres’ help, Old Lady Han was crying at home, jumping on her feet as she demanded her two sons to tie Lin Lan up and drag her here.
The eldest Brother Han refused to move, “Jinbao went to smash their house’s tank and even beat Sanwang into such an injured state, how could she not be angry as a mother? She’s just venting…”
“Fuck you, you useless asshole!” Old Lady Han raised her hand and gave him a slap, which shocked everyone who was present.
Old Man Han was stunned as his eldest son was sensible ever since he was a child. Hence, he had never been beaten.
The eldest sister-in-law’s eyes turned red all of a sudden, “What is this for? What is this for? Is it perhaps wrong for him to work hard to raise the family?”
Old Lady Han demanded them to get the chickens and eggs back. She angrily went into the room with the intention to count the number of missing eggs, but at a glance, she saw the split lock.
“Ah—” She rushed over to open the big closet.
