Lin Xiaoyue entered the room and grabbed Liu Shi’s arm.
“They are here and disturbing my mother’s peace. As her daughter, how can I not come back?” As she said that, she looked at Liu Shi with a cute look.
When Liu Shi heard this, she looked worried again.
“Did they inform you?” Then, she looked out of the room in annoyance.
Lin Xiaoyue tugged at Liu Shi’s arm like a spoiled child, turned around with Liu Shi, and continued to walk into the room.
“Their mission is to take good care of you. Now that something has happened, what’s wrong with informing me?”
She helped Liu Shi to sit down by the bed and turned to look at her.
“Mother, did the Lin family make things difficult for you?”
Liu Shi’s expression changed slightly.
Under her daughter’s gaze, he finally sighed.
Then, she reached out and grabbed Lin Xiaoyue’s hand.
“Since they are already dead, the debt should be settled. They are still your father’s…”
Seeing the change in Lin Xiaoyue’s expression, Liu Shi did not continue.
“Forget it, just pretend like i didn’t say anything. Regarding the Lin family’s matters, you have the final say.” Liu Shi said again.
Lin Xiaoyue’s expression changed again.
She glanced at her mother, who did not look too good, and covered her hand with hers.
“Actually, Old Madam Lin, Lin Lanhua, and Lin Yuanshan, who bullied us the most back then, are all dead. For father’s sake, we can let go of those grudges.”
Hearing this, Liu Shi immediately looked at Lin Xiaoyue.
Lin Xiaoyue sighed. “But, the Lin family’s request isn’t that simple.”
Liu Shi frowned. “What do you mean?” She asked Lin Xiaoyue seriously.
She wanted to resolve her grievances with the Lin family on account of her late husband.
However, it did not mean that she wanted to see her daughter being schemed against.
“A while ago, Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife came to work in our workshop.”
“At that time, Zhou Shi saw that she was honest and had a good att.i.tude, so she let her stay…”
Lin Xiaoyue quickly told Liu Shi about how the rest of the Lin family had become restless after Fourth Uncle Lin came to the workshop.
When Liu Shi heard this, she remembered that when the Lin family came to apologize, only Old Master Lin and Second Uncle Lin’s family came. Fourth Uncle Lin’s family did not appear.
“Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife is an understanding person. He has changed for the better after marrying such a wife.”
“Look, have I ever made things difficult for them?”
Liu Shi shook her head.
Her daughter didn’t stop Zhou Shi from keeping Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife, nor did she stop her from entering the workshop.
Later, when they wanted to build a house, she did not stop Zhou Shi from lending money. Indeed, she didn’t make things difficult for them.
“But the others are different. They only wanted to take advantage of her.” At the mention of the rest of the Lin family, Lin Xiaoyue’s face showed disdain.
“After failing to curry favor with Fourth Uncle Lin and his wife, they pestered the person in charge of hiring.”
“Coincidentally, Zhou Shi was not feeling well, so the rest did not dare to disturb her. They actually thought that we were tolerating them.”
“Today, they actually took advantage of my absence and brought Lin Dachui to our door.”
When Liu Shi heard her daughter mention “Lin Dachui” she subconsciously frowned slightly.
He was an elder after all. Not only was he his daughter’s elder, but he was also hers. It was a little inappropriate for her daughter to call him by his name.
However, even though she had such thoughts in her heart, Liu Shi endured it and did not say anything.
What her daughter said made sense.
The rest of the Lin family, including Old Master Lin, had not come for a simple reason.
Actually, she had her own guesses. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have insisted that she should listen to her daughter.
Now, it seemed that her insistence was right.
“Mother, when these people need help, they try their best to curry favor. Once they realized that others could not help or were unwilling to help, they would immediately change their att.i.tude and even treat them as enemies.”
“The way they treated Fourth Uncle and his wife was an example.”
“Previously, they asked Fourth Uncle Lin and his wife for help. Jiang and Deng Shi personally came to deliver food. However, after being rejected, they took back all the food.”
“Is this something a normal person does? Anyway, I’m not that thick-skinned.”
Liu Shi nodded awkwardly.
According to her understanding of Jiang and Deng Shi, it was indeed not strange for them to do such a thing..
