Chapter 250 Li Sisters
Previously, the family of a second-rate guy came to Lan Xin's house angrily to make trouble. The reason was that the man of that family followed others to break into Lan Xin's house and wanted to steal money. In the end, he was caught by Lan Qing and others, beaten up, and sent to the police station.
Lan Xin still remembers what happened that day, and she is still scared when she thinks about it. If it wasn't for Lan Qing and the others lying in wait, these two grown men would have brought knives with them at night, and she and her two daughters were the only ones at home, without any defense. It's really scary to think about it.
So in order to deal with these people and to deter other people with evil intentions, Lan Qing and his men beat them up and sent them to prison. I heard that they later set an example and received a heavy sentence. After this incident, no one dared to come to Lan Xin for trouble for two months.
Half a month later, one of the second-rate people named Li Shuigen found out about this and came to Lan Xin's house to threaten her and ask her to release the person. Lan Xin was not so easy to bully. She easily dealt with them and scared the person away. Now she takes a detour when passing by Lanjia Village.
Lan Xin remembered that the second-rate family seemed to have two daughters, and the eldest daughter seemed to be the girl she had just seen on Mount Sanqing. However, the girl looked much thinner than she had been a month ago, with a pale face, and most importantly, her eyes had changed from the original timid look to the current look full of hatred.
Thinking that her father was a burglar, Lan Xin took a breath and became alert.
Now that girl suddenly went to Sanqing Mountain to sell cucumbers. This matter is not simple no matter how you look at it, especially the way she looks at her enemy. Is she trying to avenge her for sending her father to prison?
Lan Xin couldn't help but frowned when she thought of this. She wasn't afraid of the little girl, but she was afraid that Yingying and Yueyue would be harmed. After all, they were still so young, and they couldn't run fast if they encountered anything.
After raising them for a few months, the two children are well-behaved and sensible, and are full of admiration for her. They are almost like Lan Xin's own children. If anything happens to them, Lan Xin will be heartbroken.
The more Lan Xin thought about it, the more she felt that she couldn't let it go so easily. She had to find out what happened to the family after what happened before.
The easiest place to get information in this village is under the big banyan tree, but it's almost noon now and there might not be many people. Lan Xin thought about it, picked up a few raw eggs, put them in a bowl, and walked towards Aunt Fat's house.
The liveliness under the big banyan tree is inseparable from people like Aunt Fat. Whenever they have free time, they gather under the tree and chat. The topics they talk about are very wide-ranging, not just Lanjia Village, they can also talk about gossip from other villages.
However, after being disciplined by Uncle Lan, those who were punished are still digging fish ponds. They are much more tight-lipped. At least they dare not talk nonsense if they have not seen it with their own eyes. As for Auntie Pang, who has a job, even if she is exhausted after a day, she is still willing to go under the tree and chat a few words after dinner.
Today they were taking a break after group shopping for groceries, and Auntie Pang was also taking a break. When Lan Xin came over, Auntie Pang was surprised and couldn't help asking, "Lan Xin, is there something urgent today?"
Otherwise, she couldn't imagine why Lan Xin came to her and looked for her.
"No, Aunt Fat, I want to ask you something." Lan Xin said as she handed over the egg in her hand.
When she saw the eggs, the smile on Auntie Fatty's face was so sincere. She took the eggs and said with a smile: "What's our relationship? If you have anything to say, just come to my house and tell me. It's so strange to bring eggs."
Lan Xin didn't take Auntie Pang's polite words seriously. They were all adults, so they still had to abide by some social rules. After Auntie Pang took the egg, her expression became serious and she patted her chest.
"Lan Xin, whatever you want to ask, just ask. There's nothing I don't know."
"Aunt Fat, I'd like to ask if you know what happened recently in the home of that second-rate guy named Li Shuigen in the neighboring Lijia Village?" Lan Xin found a bench and sat down, and asked directly. Li Shuigen was the thief who was imprisoned by Lan Xin.
"Why are you asking about this second-rate guy..." Hearing that Lan Xin brought a few eggs, such a precious thing, just to ask about this, Aunt Fat couldn't help but complain, but she soon remembered that this matter really was related to Lan Xin, and she immediately straightened up and looked serious.
"You know what? I really know something." Auntie Pang clapped her hands, her eyes sparkling. "Didn't you send those two people from Lijia Village to jail for stealing things from your house? I heard they were sentenced to five years in jail, and then sent to do hard labor for another ten years."
This punishment, in this era, is neither easy nor severe. After all, the more serious ones would be shot directly.
Moreover, Li Shuigen and the other man were domineering people in Lijia Village. The people in Lijia Village were happy to see them sentenced to faraway places and would not plead for them at all. The two men were sent away without even seeing their families.
After Li Shuigen was imprisoned, his wife packed up her bags and went home to remarry. Li Shuigen's parents certainly would not be happy about this, but Li Shuigen's wife was not jealous. Her scoundrel skills were no less than Li Shuigen's parents.
In addition, no one from Lijia Village helped them, and the few of them made a lot of noise, which made people from the nearby villages watch the fun. In the end, Li Shuigen's parents could only watch her leave in dejection.
Li Shuigen's wife ran away on her own and didn't care about her two daughters at all. Li Shuigen's parents took their anger out on the two girls, thinking that keeping the two girls would not only prevent them from carrying on their family line, but would also waste food.
The two girls, who had only been in school for two years, were taken directly back home and beaten three times a day by the two elderly people. Not only did they not have a piece of good meat on their bodies, they were not even given food to eat. Their life was so miserable.
"Those two girls had a miserable life. Not only were they beaten by their family members, but the adults and children in Lijia Village also looked down on them and bullied them."
Speaking of this, Aunt Pang couldn't help but shake her head and sigh, her eyes showing pity, while Lan Xin's brows were tightly frowned.
The two girls already had a hard life, and now it's even harder. The children are immature and have not yet formed their own sense of right and wrong. It's inevitable that they will get stimulated and blame everything on Lan Xin.
They felt that if Lan Xin had not sent their father Li Shuigen to prison, their mother would not have run away, and they would not have been abused by their grandparents.
Thinking back to the hateful look in the girl's eyes just now, Lan Xin felt that the girl might have this idea now. Now she was just looking at her with hateful eyes. It was hard to say whether she would go too far in the next step and hurt her. It was hard to say whether she would hurt the two children.
