Chapter 286: Chapter 286: Not Gone Dumb, But Gone Stupid

"What else did they say?"

"They also said they made a scene at the entrance of Xiyang Food Factory, tarnishing the reputation of Xiyang Food Factory. Not only did the factory call the police, but they also want to sue them in court. Now these people are scared to death, crowding at our doorstep demanding an explanation."

Upon hearing the police were called, Lin Jiayi also panicked.

She wasn’t in the mood to watch the excitement anymore. If the police started investigating, the meat was indeed sold by them.

"You go back first and have your older brother keep those people calm. I’ll figure out a solution."

Lin Jiayi quickly sent Li Dongmei away, fearing she might bring those people to her parental home.

Li Dongmei was out of ideas, now completely taking orders from her sister-in-law.

Just leaving the yard, she ran into Lin Jiadong returning from outside, hurrying without even offering a greeting.

Lin Jiadong curled his lips. Upon entering and seeing Lin Jiayi, he asked with confusion, "I just saw your sister-in-law, why are you still here? Aren’t you going back with her?"

Lin Jiayi couldn’t stand Lin Jiadong’s tone right now, "Why do I have to go back? This is my family’s home; I can stay wherever I want."

"You’re so fired up; what’s with you? I was just asking; why are you so agitated?"

"Lin Jiadong, don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking now. Isn’t it just because Lin Chuxia, that little wretch, is getting ahead? You look down on me now, but I’m your older sister. I’m telling you, other than our parents, only I treat you the best. Everything Lin Chuxia does is to hoodwink you, and only you are naive enough to see none of it."

Lin Jiadong looked at her as if she were crazy, "What are you raving about my younger sister for? What has she done to you, calling her a little wretch? They say pregnancy makes a woman dumber for three years, but have you gotten dumber instead of just dumb?" freeweɓnovel.cøm

"Who are you calling stupid?"

Lin Jiayi stood up, ready to scold Lin Jiadong, but Mother Lin intervened, "Enough, both of you say less, why the fuss while you’re pregnant."

Then she turned to Lin Jiadong, "And you too. Your older sister is still pregnant, as her brother, you should be more attentive to her."

"I was just showing concern for her, which is why I asked. When I went out just now, I heard that a group of people from Xiaoqingshan Village went to my brother-in-law’s place, seems like there was some trouble."

"Knowing the Li Family is in trouble, yet you still want your older sister to go back? Don’t you have a conscience? Your older sister loves you so much, she even gave you meat to eat."

Mother Lin disagreed as she spoke; she has only this one son and naturally favored him being close to his older daughter.

"Don’t mention it; the meat from my older sister’s home doesn’t taste good. I got a stomachache after eating it the other night. The meat from my second sister’s place is much tastier," when he goes to the city to study in the future, he could eat his second sister’s meat regularly.

Lin Jiayi could no longer contain her anger and threw a pillow from nearby, "Get out, don’t ever call me your sister again."

Lin Jiadong caught the pillow. His older sister had always been overbearing and liked to bully him and his younger sister since childhood; he was used to it. He put the pillow aside and straightforwardly returned to his own room.

"Mom, look at him; who knows what nonsense Lin Chuxia has fed him. Now he doesn’t even see me as his older sister anymore."

Mother Lin didn’t want to discuss this with her eldest daughter. Even if she looked down on her second daughter, the latter had now achieved great success. She was happy to see her son getting along well with the second daughter.

Moreover, her son had even told her that once he gets into high school, the second daughter would support his studies.

Lin Jiayi said this while tears fell. She held her belly with one hand and wiped her tears with the other, the picture of misery.

"I’m doing this for whom? Running a business to make money with a big belly, isn’t it all to make you and dad proud? Xiaoqingshan Village is so close to Daqing Mountain Village, I just want others to mention me and for you and dad to shine with pride. Plus, once I have money, you and dad can have some good days too. These days, I’ve been hustling to bring food home for you; how much has the second child done for you in all the years of business? They say blood is thicker than water, my heart aches the most for mom and dad, unlike those thankless wretches who no amount of caring for can buy their affection..."

"Why are you bringing this up again?"

Mother Lin quickly interrupted her and even turned her head to glance in the direction of Lin Jiadong’s room, her voice very low.

"How many times have I told you not to mention this issue? Do you think we’d benefit by bringing this up right now? I bet that damned girl is just waiting to cut ties with us."

Lin Jiayi also knew that now was the worst time to stir up this issue, but seeing her mother’s attitude, she always worried that her mother had forgotten who her real children were.

Mother Lin understood her daughter’s mindset and gently patted her arm, "You just wait at home, I’ll go to the village chief’s house. We can’t go on being forceful; we’ll try the gentler approach."

Lin Jiayi’s eyes lit up.

Right, why hadn’t she thought of that?

After all, they are family. If they can get the village chief to mediate, she didn’t believe Lin Chuxia would refuse to give face to the village chief.

"Mom, please hurry, and it would be best if the village chief can make a trip today. Even if the village chief can’t go, his sons can, Sun Bingnan and Sun Lanlan both have a good relationship with the second child."

"I got it."

Mother Lin didn’t delay, after a simple preparation, she headed to the village chief’s house.
