170 Why Make Things So Awkward?
Lin Chenghai knew better than anyone how hard labor was.
He immediately ran home and called his entire family to the entrance of Youjia village to apologize!
Only by making the vicious woman in Youjia village calm down could everything return to normal.
Wang Mingyue’s stomach had already grown big and she was also dragged out by Lin Chenghai.
!!
Wang Mingyue said unhappily, “I’m not going.”
Old Madam Lin also said, “She’s pregnant. Why did you ask her to go?!”
The Lin family did not want Wang Mingyue to marry into the family. Unfortunately, the Lin family had only one son for three generations. It had been ten years since Li Hongmei gave birth to a son, but there was no further news at all.
Wang Mingyue was pregnant with a child and there was no need for any betrothal gifts. It was equivalent to getting a daughter-in-law for free.
After she gave birth, there would be an additional manpower in the family. Just like this, Wang Mingyue entered the family and become the only concubine in all eight villages.
Lin Chenghai’s son, Lin Yao, had been indoctrinated by his mother, Li Hongmei, that a concubine was a servant, and the child she was pregnant with was also a little bastard. Therefore, he often found opportunities to bully Wang Mingyue.
However, with Old Madam Lin protecting her, nothing major happened to Wang Mingyue.
Their entire family had to go to Youjia village to apologize. Why shouldn’t Wang Mingyue, a concubine, go?
Lin Yao was very dissatisfied and said to his father, “If we hit her, she’ll be obedient!”
Lin Chenghai had nowhere to vent his anger. Wang Mingyue was pregnant, so she could act pitiful. What kind of person was she? She actually dared to disobey him, so he slapped her hard.
The entire family was stunned.
No one expected Lin Chenghai to suddenly hit someone.
Wang Mingyue covered her rapidly swelling face as she cried loudly, “I am giving birth to a child for you, but you actually hit me!”
She pounded Lin Chenghai’s chest hatefully. Lin Chenghai, who had not vented his anger with a slap, slapped her again.
Wang Mingyue’s face was swollen on both sides. She had been beaten into submission and looked at Lin Chenghai plaintively.
Lin Chenghai was furious when he saw her. “You’re a jinx. I’m so unlucky because I touched you.”
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Wang Mingyue was jinxing him. He said hatefully, “If you dare to be disobedient again, I’ll sell you after you give birth to a son!”
Wang Mingyue was frightened and immediately became obedient. She cried and said, “Don’t sell me. I’ll listen to you. I’ll go.”
Li Hongmei touched her son’s chubby face in admiration and smiled. Since Lin Chenghai had such thoughts, she had to fulfill them for him.
Lin Chenghai’s family came to the entrance of Youjia village. Lin Chenghai said loudly, “Lin Chenghai, the village chief of Lintian Village, has brought his entire family to apologize to Madam Bai.”
The dark guard glanced at them, unmoved.
Old Madam Lin looked at her son and complained softly, “Why is this Madam Bai so ruthless!”
Lin Chenghai suddenly covered his mother’s mouth. These people from Youjia Village were not ordinary people. They were very capable. If they heard this, it would be useless even if they knelt down and kowtowed.
No matter what Lin Chenghai said, the dark guard ignored him.
He thought that it was because he did not show enough sincerity. He could only grit his teeth and take out a piece of silver from his pocket. He handed it to the dark guard and begged humbly, “Brother, let us in!”
He couldn’t go in himself. Firstly, it would be too embarrassing. Secondly, Wang Mingyue was pregnant and was still there to beg Bai Wutong. Bai Wutong would not want anyone’s life to be at risk, so she would definitely compromise.
Even now, he still wanted to use coercion.
Unexpectedly, even when the silver was handed to them, the dark guards still did not look at them.
Lin Chenghai clenched his fists and said loudly, “If Madam Bai doesn’t want to see us, we’ll wait here until she’s willing to see us and forgive us.”
The dark guards were still indifferent, as if they were not even comparable to a dog. Old Master Lin was so angry that his heart was beating rapidly. He could not stand such humiliation. “Let’s go. If she doesn’t want to see us, so be it!”
Lin Chenghai could not bear it either, but when he thought of the few months of hard labor, he could only suppress his anger and whisper into his ear, “Father, if I don’t become the village chief, other than hard labor, I have to go if there is conscription.” The war was not over yet!
If he was the village chief, he would not have to go.
When Old Master Lin heard this, he could only endure it.
It was hot in the summer. There was no shade in Youjia village entrance. Soon, all of them were sweating profusely and looking dehydrated.
Lin Yao sat on the ground and rested for a while. He couldn’t help but say to Lin Chenghai, “Dad, I’ll get you some water.”
Lin Chenghai’s mouth was dry as well. He nodded. “Then go quickly.”
Lin Yao stood up as if he was relieved and quickly ran home.
When he got home, he rushed into the kitchen, picked up a gourd dipper, and gulped down a mouthful of water. He took a breath before he felt like he was alive again.
“Coo, coo ~”
He was hungry. He rummaged around, found some food, filled his stomach, and felt sleepy again.
He had wanted to rest for a while before delivering the water. Instead, he fell onto the haystack and dozed for a while before sleeping like a dead pig.
Lin Chenghai was waiting for Lin Yao to return but to no avail. Instead, the officials came.
Yang Gongbing originally wanted to come personally, but he could not leave his official duties, so he could only send Bao Zhaoshan.
When Lin Chenghai saw the bailiff, his heart skipped a beat. He smiled and asked, “Sir, what brings you here?”
Bao Zhaoshan said in a business-like manner, “You’re blocking the entrance of Youjia village and obstructing everyone from entering and exiting. It’s a huge disturbance to their lives. They’ve come to report to the officials and asked to capture you.”
Lin Chenghai was dumbfounded. “Sir, I’m just here to see Madam Bai. I’m not blocking their way out.”
Bao Zhaoshan glanced at the pale Wang Mingyue and said, “You’re blocking the entrance with a six-month pregnant woman. Who is going to take the responsibility if anything happens? Leave quickly. She doesn’t want to see you. If you do this, won’t you offend her even more?”
Old Madam Lin tried to curry favor with him. “Officer, then help us put in a good word for Madam Bai. It’s better to be close neighbors than distant relatives. Why make things so awkward?”
Bao Zhaoshan knew why Yu Suisheng was unwilling to accept their fruits. He said in amusement, “You’re the ones who want to sell it for one copper coin per four catties. But you’re also the ones who want to go back on your word. If it were me, I wouldn’t have bothered with you from the beginning.”
Old Madam Lin was choked by Bao Zhaoshan’s words. Her face turned pale and she refused to admit their mistake. “But she didn’t compensate us for it. She’s the one who earned all the money. Is it too much for us to just ask for some fruit money?”
...
Bao Zhaoshan rolled his eyes at her and said mercilessly, “It’s not too much, it’s just that others don’t want to buy your fruits anymore.”
Old Madam Lin was speechless.
Bao Zhaoshan lost his patience and urged, “Leave quickly. Don’t continue to embarrass yourself here.”
If he returned like this, he would definitely lose his position as the village chief.
Lin Chenghai knew that Bai Wutong’s people must be secretly observing him. Suddenly, he knelt down and shouted towards Youjia village, “Madam Bai, it’s all my fault. It’s fine if you don’t forgive me. Please give our entire village a way out!”
No one in their village had collected fruits last year, but they had survived.
Why should he make it seem like Bai Wutong was not giving their entire village a way out if she did not purchase their fruits?
If word got out, how would others look at Bai Wutong?
How shameless!
