Chapter 276: Chapter 276: Lin Caisang, it’s all you! Chapter 276: Chapter 276: Lin Caisang, it’s all you! “You…”
As Lin Laogeng opened his mouth, he found himself suddenly silenced by Lin Caihe’s name.
It seemed no matter what he said to his granddaughter, it was useless. She was convinced that Sangsang had stolen everything from her. This unreasonable attitude was something he’d never encountered before.
“Enough, talking to you any further is pointless. Old Three, take her back. Let her sit in the room and think about what she has done.”
He guessed that she probably wasn’t the type to think things through clearly, but now was truly not the time to squabble with Lin Caihe. His gaze shifted to the pale-faced Liu Chushui on the oxcart.
“Old Three, Changfeng, where should we put this boy? We need to find a doctor immediately; this can’t be delayed.”
“What about my room?”
Lin Changfeng swiftly proposed.
Although everyone in the house had their own room, given the situation, it was inappropriate to put the boy in Changhong’s room. How could they let Changyi, a child, live with Liu Chushui, an injured man? Who would feel at ease with that?
His room seemed to be the only option left.
Lin Baiyi responded promptly, without a second thought.
“Third Uncle, take Chushui to my brother’s room. Brother Changfeng needs to study, he can’t be disturbed. It will be fine to put him in my brother’s room. My brother can keep an eye on him, and it will be convenient for everyone.”
Just as Lin Baiyi and Lin Changfeng were about to move him into the room, Lin Caisang and Lin Changhong entered the courtyard. Lin Caisang immediately spoke up.
Liu Chushui was a patient with serious injuries. Taking care of him would involve a lot of back-and-forth. Placing him in Lin Changfeng’s room would undoubtedly disrupt his studies.
“Right, it’s better to put him in …”
“Lin Caisang, this is all your fault!”
Just as Lin Changhong was about to agree, an all too familiar roar of fury erupted from the yard. Before he could react, a shadow swiftly rushed forward, hurling itself at Lin Caisang standing next to him.
Caught off guard, Lin Caisang was thrown against the courtyard doors, causing them to retreat with a loud creak. She couldn’t keep her balance and fell to the ground, scraping her right cheek against the bamboo door.
Everyone was shocked into paralysis, failing to react in time. By the time they came to their senses, Lin Caisang was already on the ground.
Beside himself with rage, Lin Changhong gave Lin Caihe a strong push and rushed to his sister’s side.
“Sangsang, Sangsang, are you okay?”
Feeling a burning pain on her right cheek, Lin Caisang knew she had been grazed by a splinter on the door, but she still managed to limp to her feet, shaking her head.
“I’m fine, I’m fine.”
“How can you say you’re fine, look at this …” Lin Changhong’s gaze fell on the wound on his sister’s face. Half of her face had been slashed by the sharp bamboo splinter, and beads of blood oozed out.
“I have medicinal powder in my room. Just get it for me to apply and I’ll be fine. It’s a minor wound.”
Lin Caisang brushed it off casually.
“Okay, I’ll go get it.” Lin Changhong immediately rushed to her room.
Unable to contain himself any longer, Yang Lin strode up and slapped Lin Caihe.
“Lin Caihe, have you lost your mind?”
“I’m not the crazy one, you all are!” Lin Caihe pointed at everyone, stomping her foot in rage.
“It’s you people who are crazy; all of you madmen are treating this sly little vixen, Lin Caisang, like a precious gem. What’s so great about her? She eats more than a pig and does less work than one, and her whole demeanor resembles a pig. And yet, you all prize her highly?”
