Chapter 306 made Grandpa faint from anger.
With an innocent look on her face, she said, "Hey, didn't Grandpa just tell my dad not to hold a grudge? Why is Grandpa holding a grudge now? You make my parents work but don't give them any money to spend, and my dad is already being petty for mentioning it. But you took away the inheritance left by my dad's maternal grandparents, sixteen acres of fertile land. You can sell a lot of silver for growing grain. Just give us some grain to eat, why is Grandpa so angry? Or is Grandpa just petty and unwilling to suffer even the slightest loss?"
Lin Xiaotang spoke fluently and quickly, giving no one a chance to interrupt or refute her.
After saying that, she felt completely refreshed.
In her opinion, people should not care about feelings, speak out when they encounter injustice, go crazy when they encounter shameless people, and fight back against those who turn the tables!
Old Master Shen was so angry that his face turned a deep purplish-red, his chest heaving violently, and he seemed unable to catch his breath. He could not even stand steadily and took two steps back before regaining his balance.
"You little brat! I'm your grandfather! How dare you talk to your grandfather like that? Your parents are both honest people, but how did they end up with such a sharp-tongued person like you? If I hadn't watched you grow up, I would have thought you were a monster in disguise! It makes me so angry..."
I'm so angry because of his disrespectful behavior as an elder!
Lin Xiaotang pouted and deliberately imitated her uncle's nonchalant tone, saying, "Grandpa, it's wrong of you to say that. Parents are honest and don't talk much, but that's because you and stepmother forced them to be. They listen to you in everything they do, and you still boss them around, always scolding and yelling at them. Do they dare to speak up? Do they dare to argue back? They've been pretending to be mute for so many years, isn't it all because you scared them?"
"Of course I'm different from them. What am I afraid of at such a young age? You're a scholar, well-educated. You should know the saying 'a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger,' right? Besides, I'm just a 'little girl' in your eyes. In the future, I'll become a 'married-out daughter,' like water spilled from a cup. Anyway, I'll belong to another family sooner or later, so why should I put up with this humiliation here?"
She chuckled, her eyes filled with endless mockery, and added, "At worst, I can do what my aunt did and cut off all ties with my family after I get married. But I won't cut off ties with my parents, I'll cut off ties with you all!"
As Mr. Shen listened, his face grew increasingly grim, and by the end, he almost couldn't catch his breath.
He gasped for breath, "You wretched child, you wretched child! How can someone so young utter such heartless and cold-blooded words? You must be possessed by a demon or monster! Quick... quick..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was so angry that he rolled his eyes and fainted.
The second, third, and youngest brothers all ran over and shook their father's body vigorously.
"Dad, Dad, what's wrong? Wake up! Don't scare your sons, Dad..."
The youngest son looked up and pointed at Lin Xiaotang, gritting his teeth as he scolded, "You brat, you made your grandfather faint. If anything happens to him, we won't let you off the hook."
Lin Xiaotang never expected that her grandfather would faint from anger. Every time they came to cause trouble, she would practice her verbal skills with her grandfather. She never expected that he would be so easily defeated this time.
Sigh, you can't entirely blame her. It's all because Grandpa always bullies her dad and takes advantage of him.
As a daughter, she would definitely defend her father and stand up for him.
Lin Qingchuan and Shui Sheng also went over to check the situation, but Shen Xiaochuan swung his arm and sent them back.
Shen Xiaochuan said fiercely, "Get out of my way, Dad doesn't need your fake kindness."
The second and third brothers were furious when they saw their niece had made their father faint. They were just as angry as Shen Xiaochuan, but the second brother was quicker-witted and had a longer-term perspective.
Now is not the time to break ties with their elder brother. They can only get a high price by selling their turmeric to him. If they sell it to Feng's Pharmacy, the price will be low, and they will have to carry it all the way to town, which is not worthwhile.
Moreover, the eldest brother has already separated from them and severed all ties, even changing his surname. If they really anger the eldest brother, he might do what Jinzhu did and leave the whole family to do business and never come back. In the future, if they encounter any problems and want to seek their help, they won't be able to find their home.
Not worth the candle!
Moreover, he felt the strangest thing was that his elder brother and sister-in-law and Shuisheng were doing business in town, but he had never seen them go out, and he couldn't even find out where their home was.
Composing himself, he frowned and said, "Third brother, Xiao Chuan, you two carry Dad home quickly. I'll stay and weigh and sell the turmeric. We'll get Dad a doctor to take a look at him. Put everything else aside for now. We mustn't let anything happen to Dad."
The third brother glared at his eldest brother, while the youngest brother let out a heavy snort. Finally, the third brother carried his father on his back, with Shen Xiaochuan supporting him, and they walked out of the Lin family's small house together.
Lin Qingchuan watched his father being carried away by his third brother and felt a little regretful. If he had known that his father was so easily angered, he would have advised his daughter to say less. His father's harsh and unreasonable words have been going on for a long time. He should just let his words go in one ear and out the other. If this gets out, his daughter will be known as a monster reincarnated. How will his daughter get married when she grows up?
Lin Xiaotang, of course, didn't care about any of that. Aren't all those gossips and rumors spread by gossipy people with just a few words? Whether it's ancient or modern times, the cost of spreading rumors is too low. Those unscrupulous people just spread rumors when they have nothing better to do.
Before they separated their households, she was still young and had to be careful about what she did and said, afraid that people would find out that she was born as a second mother. But now it's different. Her family has opened a shop in the county, and their supply business is stable. They're making money, so they have more confidence. Her parents and the whole family protect her, so she naturally doesn't have to be afraid anymore.
Shen Jiangchuan said with a displeased look, "Big brother, you really should discipline Xiaotang properly. You can't let her do whatever she wants just because she's smart. What will she be like when she grows up like this? No matter what, Dad is still an elder. He may be a bit stubborn and unreasonable, but he's not a bad person. How can he let a junior who is only a few years old do this... Sigh!"
He thought to himself, if it weren't for the fact that he still needed his older brother to give their father money to help them pay off their debts as soon as possible, he would have already given his older brother a good scolding.
Lin Qingchuan said somewhat guiltyly, "When Dad said those things, Xiaotang and I couldn't help but argue back a few times. I didn't expect Dad to faint from anger. He's getting old, and his temper is getting worse. Everyone knows what kind of person he is. No matter right or wrong, he always has the final say. Xiaotang argued back too much, and he got so angry that he fainted. This is Xiaotang and my fault. After we're done with this busy period and have sold all the turmeric, I'll have your sister-in-law teach her a lesson."
Lin Xiaotang's eyes darted around, and she quickly changed the subject, saying, "Dad, you're so busy you've forgotten everything. Mom just gave birth to a little brother for me and Xiaoyu, and she's still in her postpartum period. How could she have the energy to teach me?"
"What? My sister-in-law gave birth? And it's a boy?"
Shen Jiangchuan was extremely shocked. He hadn't seen his sister-in-law for almost a year, and she was not only pregnant again, but had also given birth to a boy.
