When Village head Luo found out where his daughter was he secretly made a trip to the capital and even arranged a meeting with Luo Chenxi who was called ‘ Xi Xi’ now. It was such a humiliating incident for him, he went to save his daughter and even went through all that song and dance only to listen to her say that she was never coming back. He tried to make her understand that she will regret this life sooner or later and that she should just return home with him. Even though he was old and not that rich, he will still take care of her but Luo Chenxi refused, saying that she loved serving men! And she adored the love that they showered on her.
After listening to such vulgar words coming out of his daughter’s mouth, Village head Luo gave up on bringing her back and simply took the carriage back home and then sent the words around that his daughter ran away with her lover and was now married with a child, the one in the capital had nothing to do with him. Though he said that, he hasn’t been able to sleep ever since that day and only got a few hours of sleep in the wee hours of the morning after tossing and turning the entire night yet he was woken up by the villagers before he could even finish a nap of one hour.
Currently, he was greatly sleep-deprived and tired. Thus, when he finished listening to what the villagers had to say about the current condition, his expression couldn’t help but turn dark, in the end, he stared at Grandma Lin with a fire burning in his eyes as he snarled, ” Madam Lin, I think you know it very well that commoners aren’t allowed to take in another wife without any rhyme or reason, unless the first wife fails in giving birth to a son, there is no need to marry another woman. Zhang Xiaohui has given birth to Lin Che, how can you allow such an absurdity to happen? Do you want the entire village to die because of your son’s vulgar actions? Once the fact if a commoner tried to marry two women like the ministers go out of the village, then it will be our head on the line! Have your beer thought about it?”
” I…I .. that” Grandma Lin was tongue-tied, of course, she knew but she thought that there was nothing wrong if she were to have another grandson, and as long as no one says a thing to the outsider was there even a need for them to worry about? It was a small matter, after all, her son wasn’t a minister or an emperor that he have to worry about whom not to marry and who to marry. If no one complains about him then the officials wouldn’t find anything and whats more compared to Zhang Xiaohui, who didn’t even bring any advantage to them, An Xia was different she once served Lord Xing, and as long as she was treated well by Lord Xing then they will be treated well by lord Xing as well, ever since she An Xia came to their life, her son’s life has been improving more and more, why will she let Zhang Xiaohui this deadweight drag her son back?
But this was something she couldn’t say to the village head currently so, she smiled trying to mask all the snide remarks that were running in her head and said urgently, ” Village head, we can talk about this later on but first send someone to call doctor Gu and have him check my Ze’er, you can’t just watch my Ze’er die like this village head.”
The reason grandma Lin created such a loud ruckus was that she wanted to call village head Luo out of his house, her thinking was simple, if she called Doctor Gu then she will have to pay the fees but as long as it was the village head who called him, she wouldn’t have to fork out a penny.
Of course, village head Luo knew what was going on in grandma Lin’s head but she was right, there was no way, he can just leave the matter of Lin Ze getting beaten up like this, so even though his head was throbbing painfully, he still ordered a few men to take Lin Ze to the Lin house and then asked villagers to call Doctor Gu.
——
Because Lin Ze was jostled around by the villagers a lot while they were bringing him to the old Lin house, Lin Ze who was unconscious woke up and the second he woke up he started crying. His screams coupled with his sobbing voice were enough to make the villagers shake their heads. The old folks were right, Karma leaves no one, just look at Lin Ze. Back when Lin Yu broke his leg, Lin Ze called him a cripple and said that he was nothing but a waste of space, now look at this… so many years later it was Lin Ze who became a cripple.
Whoever the deity was who broke Lin Ze’s leg had done an amazing job forget about leaving his bed again, Lin Ze have to use a walking stick from now on!
