Chapter 273 Rumors
The noise in the Xie family's yard attracted the neighbors on both sides. They all gathered in the yard. Seeing Lin Mei going crazy, Xie Chunlei and Lin's parents went to separate them. After they finally broke up the fight, Xie's mother's face was already covered in blood.
Lin Mei was forcibly pulled away. When she struggled to get free, she glared at Jie's mother fiercely, like an angry lioness, wishing she could rush up and bite off a piece of her flesh.
Jie's mother was in a bad condition. Her scalp, face and neck were all burning with pain, and it was obvious that she was seriously injured.
The onlookers gasped when they saw the miserable state of Jie's mother with the help of flashlights.
"Damn, it's so horrible, there are blood marks all over his face."
"What happened just now? Why did Mei Zi fight with her mother-in-law?"
"I guess it's because Mr. Jie didn't agree with Mei Zi coming in. You know, Mei Zi was kidnapped for more than a year. Who knows what happened to her during this time?"
"What else could have happened? She must have been bought as a daughter-in-law by someone who couldn't afford a wife."
The villagers were talking quietly. Mother Xie felt that she had lost all her dignity and face. She slapped her thighs and sat on the ground, crying, "Oh, damn Lin's daughter, you want to come into my house and kill me! You Lins are too bullying. A woman who has been someone else's wife for more than a year wants to blame my eldest brother and stuff all the rotten things into my house! Folks, do you think that we Xies are rag collectors? Is there anyone like the Lins who bully people like this?"
The last two rhetorical questions directly escalated the dispute between the two families to a conflict between the two families.
I can empathize with you. The villagers all have the same surname. If their own children found such a terrible thing, they would be so angry that they would vomit blood.
Seeing the villagers' emotions being aroused, Lin Dahe was frightened and quickly spoke up: "Mother-in-law, what you said is serious. We passed by Jiejia Village and just followed in to have a good discussion with you, but we didn't expect you to be so unreasonable and not even let us in."
Li Xiu quickly followed up to explain: "Yes, mother-in-law, Chunlei knocked on the door but you didn't open it, so he had to jump over the wall to open the door, and you yelled at him without asking any questions. Do you treat him as your son?"
"Bah!" Mother Jie was so angry that her liver hurt. She spat on the ground, "Who are you relatives? Don't try to be related. I've said it before that ever since your daughter was kidnapped, she has no relationship with our family. A woman who has been played with by others still wants to enter my house. She's dreaming! I tell you, as long as I'm alive, she can never enter my Jie family again!"
As she spoke, Jie's mother pointed her finger at Lin Mei. It could be said that they had a fight. She hated Lin Mei so much that she wanted to slap her twice at the sight of her.
Lin Mei, who had been calm, saw Jie's mother pointing the finger at her. She suddenly jumped up as if stimulated by something, rushed to Jie's mother and slapped her twice.
"Clap!"
Two crisp sounds rang out in the yard.
Everyone in the yard was stunned.
As Jie's mother cried out in pain, everyone came to their senses and saw that her face, which was covered with blood marks, was visibly swollen.
"Sigh~"
Many people gasped.
Too bad!
If this happened to your own daughter-in-law, who could stand it?
"Enough!" Xie Chunlei stepped forward, grabbed Lin Mei's arm and threw her out.
Lin Mei took a few steps back and was supported by Lin Dahe and Li Xiu. "Chun Lei, how could you do this to Mei Zi? She is very weak now. Aren't you afraid that she will fall when you use so much force?"
When the villagers heard this, their eyelids twitched.
Some people couldn't stand it and said, "Sister-in-law Lin, what you said is funny. Why didn't I see that your daughter was weak when she beat people? Why did she become weak after being thrown away? You three rushed into our Jiejia Village to beat people. Don't be so arrogant. Do you really think that the people in our Jie family are dead and you can bully them however you want, right?"
The villagers were indignant at these words.
Seeing that she had provoked the public, Li Xiu curled her lips awkwardly: "My Meizi was mentally stimulated. She just acted excessively. She didn't do it on purpose."
Villager: "Ha, according to what you said, your Meizi is mentally ill now. If she is mentally ill, then our Chunlei is even less likely to have such a mentally ill person. What if she suddenly attacks and hurts someone?"
Some villagers echoed: "Yes, mentally ill people should get out of our Jiejia Village. Even if the Jie family is single, they don't want mentally ill people!"
"......Chunlei, look......" Seeing that the villagers were emotional, Lin Dahe asked Jie Chunlei for help.
Xie Chunlei did not go to see Lin Mei, but glanced at the villagers present and said calmly: "It's too late today, and it's not convenient for my family to entertain you. You should go back early. Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, when it's convenient for you, I will send Lin Mei's dowry back."
"Send back the dowry?"
Lin Dahe and Li Xiu were both shocked.
Li Xiu was so angry that she jumped up and down: "Chun Lei, she is your wife!"
Xie Chunlei glanced at her and emphasized, "She has been someone else's wife for more than a year."
She has slept with other men for more than a year. How could he possibly accept it now?
Are you dissatisfied that the turtle hair on your head is not green enough?
Mother Jie endured the burning pain on her face. After hearing her son's words, she felt refreshed. "My son is right. He slept with another man for more than a year and he still has the nerve to come back. If it were any other woman with a sense of shame, she would have hanged herself with a rope long ago. How could she have the nerve to come back and embarrass herself?"
The villagers of Jiejia Village also helped to drive the people away.
Li Xiu still wanted to argue with them, but the people from Jiejia Village did not give them a chance and pushed the three of them out of the yard.
Xie Chunlei looked at the receding figure, the light in his eyes flickering. He originally wanted to part ways amicably and sit down to resolve the matter, but the situation did not give him the opportunity.
At this moment, he couldn't help but think of Lin Shu.
If he had not agreed to cancel the engagement, or had married her a few years earlier, would the outcome be different now?
Today the business of the supply and marketing cooperative is not as good as in previous years. Many commodities no longer require tickets. Perhaps in a few years, the supply and marketing cooperative will have to lay off employees.
Then, what should he do?
Compared to women, men are actually more worried about their careers.
The three people who were driven out of Jiejia Village returned to Xiaohe Village cursing all the way. Compared with the disgust of the Jiejia villagers, Lin Dahe was more worried about what the people in his own village would think of Lin Mei.
Judging from the reactions of the villagers in Jiejia Village, the news of Lin Mei’s abduction must have spread to several nearby villages. After a while, I believe it will spread to the surrounding area.
What should our family do then?
How should Lin Mei live with rumors?
Rumors are like knives, they can kill!
Lin Dahe sighed and lay in bed like a pancake all night without falling asleep. He finally fell asleep at dawn, but was woken up by the noisy sound outside.
"What's going on? Can't you let me rest?"
Li Xiu pushed the door open and came in, whispering, "Keep your voice down, are you afraid that others won't know you're awake?"
Lin Dahe woke up and heard the noisy noise outside. He got out of bed and ran to the window in his slippers to look out. "What are these people doing outside our house?"
Li Xiu rubbed his brows, feeling tired: "What else can it be for?"
I just heard that Mei Zi is back and wanted to come and see their family make a fool of themselves.
Lin Dahe also reacted and felt a tightness in his chest.
I can't stay in this house!
"What is Meizi doing?"
Li Xiu pointed to the door and said, "I stayed in my room after breakfast."
She was worried all morning, fearing that Lin Mei would commit suicide because she couldn't stand the rumors in the village.
Just seeing that she had a good appetite for breakfast, I felt a little relieved.
Lin Dahe also reacted and kicked the foot of the bed angrily, "Damn, these people are just bored, what do they want to do by surrounding my house? Do they want to force Mei Zi to death?"
