My Beloved Super Fierce Wife-Chapter 274 bad ones don’t work, good ones work
Chapter 274: 274 bad ones don’t work, good ones work
Xia Zhihao and Zhu Sihan, who had been beaten half to death, "..." were truly grateful for Lin Family’s mercy in not chopping them down!
After resolving the matter, everyone except for the people from the second branch returned to the village.
Lin Tang wanted to thank the uncles and aunts from the village who had helped, so she asked her family to take some candy to them.
Li Xiuli also sincerely thanked the villagers and agreed immediately.
In the second branch, such matters were always decided by Li Xiuli; if she said it was fine, no one else had objections.
So, a group of people returned to Lin Tang’s courtyard in the county.
Once home, Lin Tang took out all the candy from the cabinet.
There were chocolates, White Rabbit Creamy Candies, fruit hard candies, soft candies...
Colorful and indescribably pretty!
They filled more than half the table in no time.
Li Xiuli was absolutely dumbfounded looking at all the candy.
"Tangtang, how come you have so much candy?"
Lin Tang’s eyes flickered slightly, but she kept her composure and said, "I bought them in advance."
In reality, due to months of accumulation, there was too much candy in the System Space, so she took out half to put in the cabinet.
Li Xiuli didn’t probe further, only asking, "Are all these going to be given away?"
Just looking at it, there was candy worth dozens of yuan.
Lin Tang genuinely didn’t lack candy, but knowing her mother would probably be reluctant to give it all away, she said:
"Give a few to Goudan, set aside some for each of us, and the rest can be divided up and distributed."
Everyone had gone through the trouble, after all; giving away some candy was nothing.
Lin Lu, who had been silents all this while, finally spoke up, "... Let’s do as Tangtang says."
Once things were settled, they wasted no time and headed back to the brigade.
Leaving the county, Lin Lu’s shoulders slumped, and his back became hunched.
"Big brother, take your pig raising methods seriously, second brother, do your best at the Sauce Factory!"
"I’m getting old, and Tangtang will have to rely on you in the future."
"When you’ve made it, protect her well. Otherwise, I won’t rest easy even when I’m in the ground."
The honest farmer’s eyes were very red.
This incident had been a huge blow to him!
It pained his heart just to think about it.
Lin Qingshan knew his father was in distress.
However, upon hearing his father mention such inauspicious words about being underground, he furrowed his brows and looked rather displeased.
"Dad, why are you saying these inauspicious things?"
"The three of us brothers will work hard. How do you think Tangtang would feel if she heard you say that?"
With parents alive, one still has place in life; with parents gone, all that’s left is the journey to the end.
As long as their parents were alive, they could... still be children.
Lin Qingshui licked his dry lips, his eyes dimming.
The usually bright eyes now took on a touch of ink-darkness.
"Dad, it hurts us brothers just as much when Tangtang is bullied.
The incident happened; if our family strives to become better and stronger, to the extent no one dares to provoke us, isn’t that all that matters?"
"There’s a lot I don’t understand about the Sauce Factory, but I’ll learn diligently and try to support my sister as soon as possible."
Ever since he found out about his sister’s notice being snatched away, the daze in his head dissipated, only to be replaced by a burning anger.
That fire was vented when they beat up those two guys.
He thought that after beating them up it would be over, but it wasn’t!
What followed was an ambition to climb upwards.
Being weak meant getting beaten; the same applied within the family.
To protect one’s family, one still needed to be successful.
Li Xiuli was also startled by Lin Lu’s words.
She patted her husband’s shoulder forcefully a few times, and quickly spit out several times.
"... Bad luck won’t work if the good fortune does."
After muttering to herself for a while, Li Xiuli glared at Lin Lu.
"Why curse yourself? As long as we’re here, our children can stick together; if we’re gone, how long could those relationships last?"
The boys each had their own families now; how could they be expected to bother with Tangtang for a lifetime without annoyance?
As their parents, the situation was different.
Whoever dared not cherish familial affection would be rewarded with the sole of a shoe.
Li Xiuli concluded, gritting her teeth, "We’ve got to stay alive, and live well at that."

Meanwhile.
Dong Xiaolian and Xia Ru had just arrived home when the phone in the house starting ringing.
Xia Ru stepped forward to answer the phone.
No one knew what was said on the other end, but her face changed dramatically.
"... Please listen to my explanation..."
Before she could get to the point, "Beep, beep, beep..." the phone line went dead. freёnovelkiss.com
Xia Ru, infuriated, slammed down the phone.
With an outburst of frustration, she screamed sharply, her demeanor extremely agitated.
Exhausted both physically and mentally, Dong Xiaolian asked, "What’s wrong now?"
"I’ve been expelled from school!" Xia Ru’s eyes were bloodshot, "I can’t accept this, why expel me now? If it’s wrong, then be wrong to the end!"
The school had accepted her, so why expel her now that the truth had come out?!
It wasn’t her fault alone!!
She refused to accept this!
Dong Xiaolian was not surprised, "It’s normal that you’ve been expelled after the affair came to light."
Schools care about their reputation.
With the truth out, naturally they would want to make amends and set things right.
Xia Ru was furious, nearly grinding her teeth to dust.
"I don’t care, by expelling me now, doesn’t that make my previous time a complete waste?"
Being expelled would leave a stain on her record, something she absolutely couldn’t accept.
A stain on her record would make finding a good job in the future difficult!
Meanwhile, Xia Zhihao was momentarily forgotten by her.
Dong Xiaolian said helplessly, "So, what do you want to do?"
"With your father in this situation, let’s put your issues aside, and first ask someone about how to deal with your dad’s problem."
Only then did Xia Ru remember her father had also gotten into trouble.
Her eyes showed a hint of guilt, and she couldn’t bring herself to look directly at Dong Xiaolian.
After a moment of silence, a sudden idea struck her.
"Mom, with dad in trouble, grandpa surely won’t just stand by, right?"
Mentioning her well-connected grandfather made Xia Ru’s eyes gleam, and she excitedly said, "I’ll call grandpa right now."
Upon hearing this, a flicker of hope rose in Dong Xiaolian’s heart.
Perhaps her father-in-law would be willing to intervene?
Xia Ru picked up the phone, only to hear a series of ’beeping’ noises; she had broken it.
Dong Xiaolian took the phone, inspected it, and realized it was completely unusable.
Inescapably reproachful, she said, "Ru Ru, you really should change this habit of yours of throwing things around whenever you get upset."
"It’s one thing at home, but in front of others, who would feel comfortable with that?"
Xia Ru disliked Dong Xiaolian’s nagging and responded unhappily, "I know, don’t keep nagging..."
"I’ll go out to call grandpa."
With that, she stormed out, slamming the door behind her.
Dong Xiaolian was stunned, staring at the trembling curtain on the door, her eyes souring.
She glanced around the silent room.
Quickly pulling herself together, she grabbed some money and the family’s valuable items and left to pull some strings.
At the same time, in Jing City.
The news about a first-year second-class student Xia Ru stealing her classmate’s college entrance exam results spread like a whirlwind in all directions.
Students from many nearby schools had heard about it.
"How could someone have such thick skin? How shameful!!"
"What about that Lin Tang? What is she doing now?"
