Chapter 126: Chapter 125: Venting for You

Qian Chunli encountered her elder brother and second brother along with Lin Qiang on the way.

Along with her elder brother Qian Chunlei and second brother Qian Chunsheng, Qian Chunlei’s son Qian Jiang had also come.

Qian Chunlei and Qian Chunsheng looked alike, both having puffy eyes, bulbous noses, and thick lips, though Qian Chunlei was a bit taller.

And Qian Jiang must have taken after his mother, with big double-lidded eyes, not very tall, but robustly built.

The three of them, wearing thick cotton-padded jackets and trousers and topped with cotton hats, were briskly walking toward Lin Family’s direction, wanting to welcome Qian Chunli and her son.

When Qian Chunli saw her relatives, even though the siblings usually had their differences and competed among themselves, she felt a warmth in her eyes, "Elder brother, second brother, Qian Jiang, you’ve come!"

She sighed to herself that blood relations mattered, a few words from them could really make a difference.

Qian Chunlei sized up Qian Chunli and Lin Qiang. He was loud, and seeing them in such a state made him raise his voice even more,

"Little sister! What happened to you? You look so haggard! How did it get like this?

Lin Yu went up and didn’t explain clearly, saying that Lin’s children weren’t getting along with you? Weren’t things previously smooth? How did it get so severe?"

They all knew that those children Lin was raising were nothing special, and ever since their little sister had married into the Lin family, she had not only changed to a city residence status enjoying rationed grain, but also started working in the factory earning money, making her children coveted, which had always made the relatives envy.

How could they suddenly suffer such misfortune?

Before they came, they had analyzed it together for a long time, but their speculations were off the mark.

Qian Chunli pursed her lips, she had asked Lin Yu to secretly inform her elder brothers to come and help sort out Lin Xia, of course, she could not tell them the whole truth;

If she told these people that Lin Qiang had mutilated his stepfather’s head, her elder brothers might not react much, but the two sisters-in-law, knowing this, would definitely nag about who to take after, and then how could their three women ever have the face to return to the village?

"Forget it! Those few, now that they’ve grown wings and struck out on their own, then his eldest son secretly went to work out of town.

Lin knew and was furious, so he wanted me and Qiangzi to accompany him to settle the scores, but they angered Lin into the hospital;

That Lin Xia went to the hospital and gave me a tough time. Here I am, at this age, and she was hitting and scolding me, I’m so upset I can’t sleep! Elder brother, second brother! So you must stand up for me!"

Qian Chunli ended up crying, she was genuinely upset, only regretting she hadn’t dealt with Lin Xia properly in earlier years.

Hearing this, the brothers Qian Chunlei and Qian Chunsheng were infuriated, "This brat has turned the heavens upside down, she even hit you? Damn it, let’s go and settle this with her!"

Qian Chunsheng angrily agreed, "Exactly! Make her grovel on the ground looking for her teeth, does she think our Qian family has no one? Little sister! Don’t cry! In this cold weather, your face will freeze!"

"Aunt!" Qian Jiang waved his arms, "We’ll get even for you!"

His aunt usually treated him well, so when Qian Jiang heard that his aunt had been mistreated, he was furiously indignant.

Qian Chunli wiped her eyes and smiled, "Alright! Elder brother, second brother, great-nephew! Having your support brightens my heart! After we’re done with them, I’ll buy you folks drinks!"

She didn’t believe that Lin Xia’s three kids could outdo her elder brothers.

"Let’s not waste time, let’s go! Find them and settle the scores!"

Together, the group walked side by side toward Lin Xia’s house, Qian Chunli then said, "Our two bicycles are still left over there, I don’t even know if they’ve been stolen!"

She was genuinely worried about the bicycles, given how expensive they would be to replace now, and with things turning out this way, Lin Aiguo was unlikely to pay for new ones—she couldn’t count on it!

But for her to buy them herself, how much did she make a month?

Qian Chunlei howled, "If it’s lost, let them pay for it! If they dare not pay, beat them to death! Every one of them is asking for it!"

They bickered all the way to the cinema.

When they found Lin Xia’s house and saw the big lock on the door, Qian Chunli frowned, "Are they not home?"

Upon seeing the locked door, Qian Chunlei shouted, "What’s going on! They are not home? Then who do we settle accounts with?"

Lin Qiang fiddled with the lock, "Mom! What do we do?"

If it were up to his old temper, he would definitely have smashed the lock without asking.

But these days, he had been so disciplined that he no longer dared to act as recklessly as before.

Qian Chunli’s eyes darted around, coming up with an idea, "Big brother! You and Qiangzi jump over the fence and check out the situation in the courtyard and the house."

She didn’t know if the Lin Xia’s family had run away or not. If they no longer lived there, wouldn’t their effort be wasted?

Qian Chunlei took off his muffler and threw it to the ground, "Alright! Let’s jump in and check! Make sure no one is at home, pretending by putting a lock on the outside!"

This time, Qian Jiang spoke up, "Why jump over the fence? Aunt! Let’s just smash this lock and be done with it! Are we still indulging them at this point?" As he spoke, he looked around for a handy tool.

Qian Chunli quickly grabbed his arm to stop him, "Qian Jiang! Let’s jump in and check first. It’s been several days, and we don’t know if those kids have slipped away! Once we’re inside and see that they are indeed there, it won’t be too late to smash it!"

Qian Chunli had her considerations; at this hour, there were many neighbors and passersby coming and going. If they smashed the lock and caused a commotion, it could attract someone’s attention.

That day when the incident occurred, the neighbors around saw it, and Lin Aiguo, even unconscious, helped take him to the hospital, so it was hard to ensure they wouldn’t recognize her and her son, and if they started shouting, the story she told her brother might suddenly be exposed.

"Alright!" Qian Jiang, with no objections, listened to his aunt’s words. He followed Qian Chunlei and Lin Qiang over the fence.

Qian Chunli and Qian Chunsheng stood outside the gate waiting.

"How is it going?"

Soon, they heard noises from the door opening.

Qian Chunli’s heart stirred, "Are they at home?"

She was full of anticipation but then heard Lin Qiang shouting frantically from inside, "Mom! There’s not a single car in the courtyard! We looked in the house, and nobody lives here anymore—they’ve moved out!"

"What?" Qian Chunli almost lost her balance, "Did they just take everything away or did they not care at all that night?"

Those kids really had some nerve, way too cruel!

She suddenly remembered that Lin Xia hadn’t mentioned the bicycle at all when they went to the hospital that day.

Qian Chunlei asked from inside, "Little sister, everyone’s moved out, what do we do now!" They really wanted to help their little sister get revenge but finding no one there rendered their effort pointless!

Qian Chunli perked up, "Big brother, you guys come out of the courtyard first!"

It wasn’t right to keep shouting like this; better to talk when they were outside.

Just as Qian Chunlei, Qian Jiang, and Lin Qiang were about to jump back over the fence, a man on a bicycle came over and shouted sternly, "What are you doing?"

Standing outside, Qian Chunsheng stiffened his neck and challenged him, "What’s it to you?"

The man got off his bicycle and retorted angrily, "This is my house! How can I not care!"
