Strict Wife Of The ’70s Manages The Household - Chapter 813
Sun Aifeng shuddered when Lin Lan said this.
Yanyan was originally at home to take care of her father, but when he passed, she found that the relatives and neighbours who came to visit suddenly became violent as they targeted her family’s belongings. One took a basin, one took a bucket and some others wanted to take their quilts!
Her Eldest Uncle, Aunt and Auntie were even more excessive. They forced her mother to hand over the keys and divide the money and grains.
All her mother could do was cry. Yanyan tried to stop one of the people but she couldn’t fight them off and was even pushed to the ground.
She was about to fall into despair. Why was this happening?
Why?
At this time, when Lin Lan supported her, it gave her a boost of courage. She wiped her tears and said, “Thank you, Teacher Lin. I’ll go find the Brigade Leader first!”
Then she ran away.
The outsiders who were watching saw that Lin Lan was supporting the girl, so some advised her, “Leader Lin, we outsiders shouldn’t interfere in this matter. Those who know better understand that you are being kind, but those who don’t use their heads would think that you want to swallow up the property of the Liu family.”
Lin Lan glanced at them and said, “You all live so close to them and some of you are even considered neighbours. The saying of distant relatives not being as good as close neighbours exists, so why do you all not seem to care?”
“Us? Haha, Captain Lin, you seem to have a good sense of humour,” These people usually have a good impression of Lin Lan. After all, they find it interesting to listen to her propaganda, “How can we be qualified to manage something like this? We are not from the same family.”
Even if they have the same surname as the Liu family, they still have to consider the distance within the family tree. If any of them had senior ranks such as a grandfather or great-grandfather, they would be qualified to intervene.
Moreover, in cases like this, the deceased’s brothers, sisters and cousins were usually the ones who were the closest to him. How could anyone else interfere?
“Is that so? If that’s the case, why do we still live in the same village, production team, and brigade?” Lin Lan was very angry, “If you encounter such a thing, would you want your neighbours to point fingers and joke about it? Do none of you think that this situation is unfortunate?”
“Oh, Captain Lin, why are you cursing at us?” Someone was unhappy.
Lin Lan said, “All I’m talking about is the facts. If you encounter such a thing, whatever it is, you should treat them the same way you want them to treat you!”
Everyone had a good relationship on the daily, but as soon as the man died, they stood here pointing fingers, making sarcastic remarks and gossiping. All they cared about was saying how pitiful it was for an orphan and a widow to live, but proceeded to accuse Wu Caixian of not being able to handle her own lust and would find another man to remarry in a short time.
What sort of good neighbour was this? Wasn’t it disgusting? Didn’t they say that those in the village should be simple and loving towards one another?
Some people did think that Lin Lan was right and said, “Captain Lin is right! It makes sense. We should go over and help out because this is too much. Even if she remarries, it’s her own business. Why should we care about them? The property is also her own and wasn’t something given to her by any of us either.”
