Chapter 556 - The Resentment of Lin Sanniu’s Family
Ever since Lin Sanniu had been chased out of the Lin family, he had been living with his wife and children in the cowshed of a nearby villager.
They had left the family with nothing. Other than the clothes they were wearing, they didn’t even get a single cent. This made the Lin family villagers even more disdainful of Lin Laosan’s family. They all secretly cursed Lin Laosan in their hearts. He didn’t treat Lin Sanniu like his biological son at all.
The villagers didn’t know what Lin Laosan and Li Cuihua were thinking. His third son was so obedient and filial to him, but they looked down on him.
As for Lin Sanniu, although he was filial, he was foolish. The consequence of such foolish filial piety was that he had to suffer with his wife and children. Even when his family wanted him to kill his own daughter, he did so without a second thought.
Now, his parents didn’t want him anymore. His daughter didn’t want him anymore. Moreover, his daughter had become the richest person in the Lin family Village.
He was stupid and fake.
This was how many people evaluated Lin Sanniu.
On this day, Lin Sanniu brought his wife and son to the fields to dig up the soil. He wanted to see if there were any wild game hidden in the soil, such as frogs, hibernating snakes, or field mice.
The reason why Lin Sanniu was looking for these was that there was really nothing to eat in his house.
Ever since he was chased out of the house, they had no house, no land, and it was difficult to support themselves.
Fortunately, Lin Sanniu was known for his diligence. During those busy days, as long as the family was slightly well-off and needed more time, they would call Lin Sanniu over to help out. The salary was paid daily, so Lin Sanniu earned some money during this period.
However, when li Cuihua heard that Lin Sanniu had money on hand, she repeatedly asked for most of the salary in the name of filial piety.
Not only did she take the money, but she also complained to Lin Sanniu that he had hidden the money. Otherwise, how could he have so little money? She left while cursing.
Li Cuihua was really cruel. Did she forget that her third son’s family was chased out with nothing? Once she took his salary, they would really starve to death.
Fortunately, Chen Xiaoqing was smart this time. When Lin Sanniu handed her the wages, she really hid a part of it. Otherwise, they would starve to death in the cold winter.
“Aiya, I say, Sanniu, look at how rich your eldest daughter is. Look at your own tattered appearance. What a pity!” Some of the villagers mocked.
This Lin Sanniu was like the kind of person who would kill his own daughter.
Chen Xiaoqing, his wife, had never had a good day since she married him. She worked hard and was tortured by Lin Laosan and his wife every day. Her three children were now sallow and skinny. Their clear eyes had become dull and numb.
Parents should protect their own children. However, Lin Sanniu was a unique case.
His elder daughter was sentenced to death because of a casual word from the Taoist priest. The younger son and daughter, who were only three or four years old, had to take care of all the household chores in the Lin family and even work in the fields with their parents.
All in all, Lin Sanniu was an irresponsible and stupid man.
Now that he had been driven out of the house by his parents, not only did he not hate his parents for being biased, but he also had to return to li Cuihua’s house when the farm was busy. He returned to give her his wages.
This was simply bizarre.
“Aiya. Sanniu, if you didn’t have such a ruthless heart and wanted to kill your eldest daughter, perhaps you would have already become the Lin family’s old master by now. Why would you need to hunt for food in the middle of winter? That girl has more than enough money for your family to eat well, wear well, and stay warm.”
