The cooked food was processed and approved by him, and he even did the processing himself. How could it all end up being her fault?
Lin Jiayi could no longer hold back and let out her words.
But Li Guangyuan just looked at her coldly, even sneering, "I said it was good enough to just sell vegetables, but you had to pin the bla on , afraid that I’d get too close to other won. You said selling cooked food would make big money, so of course, if there’s a problem, it’s your fault."
"Now look what happened, not only did we not make any money, but we also lost so much, even sold the bicycle, and can’t even sell vegetables anymore. If it’s not your fault, whose fault could it be?"
"You don’t even know how to feed yourself, always thinking the grass is greener on the other side. Aren’t you just jealous that your sister’s family made a fortune? Have you ever considered whether you have that ability?"
Li Dongi also chid in on the side, "Yeah, sister-in-law, you even said that by selling our cooked food under the banner of Xiyang Food Factory, the business would be good. It’s a good thing we didn’t listen to you entirely; otherwise, my brother might still be locked up."
Li Dongi has now completely changed her previous attitude.
She originally thought that selling cooked food would lead to establishing Li Ji’s Cooked Food, and it would strengthen her position when looking for a husband’s family.
But it turned out terribly wrong. She now has a brother who has been to prison, and the dowry money her mother saved for her has been lost in the business. Now, the person who hates Lin Jiayi the most in the family is none other than Li Dongi.
"I say, Guang Yuan, you should just divorce her. Having such a daughter-in-law is a misfortune for the family; not divorcing her is just waiting for the day she brings down the house."
"That’s right, big brother, I heard that there’s a Sister-in-law Tian who used to sell vegetables with you. Though she has a child, she is a genuine urban resident, and mother also likes children. Marrying her would bring life to the household."
If her brother marries a city girl, would she still worry about not being able to marry soone from the city?
Old Mrs. Li’s eyes also lit up upon hearing this. They say mother and daughter have a strong bond, and at this mont, not only do their intentions align, but their looks are in perfect agreent.
Lin Jiayi couldn’t believe Old Mrs. Li and Li Dongi would say such things, she was still carrying Li Guangyuan’s son.
"You can’t treat like this; I’m carrying the Li Family’s child. Aren’t you afraid of people pointing at your spine?"
She looked towards Li Guangyuan only to see him indifferently looking down, as if he had no objection to this, which made her heart panic and imdiately after, her stomach started to hurt.
Old Mrs. Li sneered, "Point at our spines? People will only point at us if we have a ho-wrecker like you."
"Mom, you might be onto sothing. When big brother was going to the city to sell vegetables every day, and the sister-in-law was alone at ho, she suddenly got pregnant. If it turns out that the child isn’t my brother’s, then I really couldn’t live with such sha."
When Li Dongi finished speaking, Lin Jiayi felt a buzz in her head.
Her biggest reliance was the child in her belly. Although she was sowhat disappointed in Li Guangyuan, she did not think it was at the point of divorce.
Not to ntion being kicked out by the Li Family under such a pretext, what kind of life would she have then?
"Guang Yuan, you believe , she’s talking nonsense, the child in my belly is yours; you know that..."
Li Guangyuan hadn’t been eating or sleeping well these past few days in the police station, and now that he was finally ho, he just wanted to have a proper sleep.
Now, listening to his mother and sister’s outlandish talk, he’s even less inclined to get involved.
He turned and irritably wanted to go inside the house.
But his reaction seed even more like a denial of Lin Jiayi’s words.
Lin Jiayi panicked and suddenly felt a sharp pain in her belly and couldn’t help but cry out, bending over and holding her stomach.
"My stomach... My stomach hurts so much..."
Li Dongi was familiar with this scene and curled her lips into a sneer, "Enough, sister-in-law, stop with these little tricks. We are not as easily deceived as your mother..."
She was halfway through her sentence when suddenly it caught in her throat, and her eyes widened in disbelief.
Underneath Lin Jiayi, a lot of water and even so blood had trickled down to the floor.
Old Mrs. Li sensed that sothing was amiss. "Guang Yuan, go find a doctor."
Lin Jiayi, clutching her abdon, was in great pain. "Go find my mom..."
...
After several days of busyness, Lin Chuxia suddenly realized today was Monday.
The police station planned to present her with a certificate and award for her brave and righteous action today, and she heard that there would be county leaders and news reporters present.
Lin Chuxia didn’t dare to delay and quickly changed into more formal clothes, then she rode her bicycle out the door.
Normally, no one would want to visit the police station, but today, Lin Chuxia felt differently.
Chen Ping was specifically waiting in the lobby, on duty and waiting for her.
Seeing her, he stood up and ca to greet her.
"Mr. Chen, I’m not late, am I?" Lin Chuxia asked.
Chen Ping smiled and shook his head, "No," and then lowered his voice a bit, "Director Wang ca early and is already in the office. The county magistrate hasn’t arrived yet, but since it’s scheduled for 9:30, he should be here soon."
Acts of bravery and righteousness must be reviewed by the functional departnt responsible for comprehensive social order managent and reported to the corresponding level of people’s governnt for confirmation and public announcent.
The target of Lin Chuxia’s brave action was Mr. Chen of the Public Security Bureau, so the review of this item almost went through directly.
The case was quite significant, and once the county found out about it, they placed great importance on it as well.
Therefore, after confirming Lin Chuxia’s bravest deed, the county magistrate decided to personally issue the certificate.
Chen Ping first took Lin Chuxia to Director Wang’s office, where Director Wang had already been waiting. Seeing Lin Chuxia, he naturally offered another round of warm and polite greetings.
Chen Ping and Sun Hao were both capable officers in their departnt, having been at the forefront during the recent case, always involved in searching for clues, making the solving of the case much easier.
It was precisely for this reason that Chen Ping had found himself in danger.
Director Wang had started out as a young public security officer himself and felt a strong empathy for Chen Ping’s predicant at the ti, which is why he was especially grateful to Lin Chuxia.
Before long, soone reported that the county magistrate and his party had arrived.
Everyone gathered, and a conference hall was specially cleared out in the police station for Lin Chuxia’s award presentation.
The ceremony was full of gravitas.
Photographers from the news agency continuously clicked their caras, as Lin Chuxia took the certificate from the hands of the county magistrate, and posed for a photo with the county magistrate, the director, Chen Ping, and others.
Due to the special status of people like Chen Ping, this photo would not be published in the newspaper, but it could serve as a keepsake for Lin Chuxia.
After the award ceremony ended, the county magistrate kept Lin Chuxia behind to talk.
The fact that the county magistrate personally ca here was not solely due to this incident, but also because of Lin Chuxia herself.
County Magistrate Bai had long heard that the brave individual was the general manager of Xiyang Company, and the expanding business of Xiyang Food Factory had piqued his interest in this private entrepreneur considerably.
Seeing her today, he was indeed quite surprised.
"Lin seems quite young, in her twenties this year?"
Bai Qifeng was in his early forties and looked at Lin Chuxia with the eyes of an elder looking at a younger one, full of appreciation.
