Chapter 413 - Chapter 413 Chapter 413 Making Trouble at the Door_1
Chapter 413: Chapter 413: Making Trouble at the Door_1 Chapter 413: Chapter 413: Making Trouble at the Door_1 Zhou Yongxian agreed wholeheartedly, rushing to the agricultural market right away to buy herself a cane. She had secretly hidden it in her room when she got home yesterday in fear of scaring her son. Now that He Jinlan had returned, and with the memory of being pushed by her flashing in her mind, the cane came in handy.
As soon as Yuan Xueshan heard this, he was quite anxious, “Then let me take you to the hospital! Bei Jiang would be worried if he knew.”
“It wouldn’t work unless I are rid of certain people’s provocations,” she retorted.
The implication made Yuan Xueshan’s face turn red, “Mom, you see, Jinlan is in such a pitiful state, could we take her in temporarily?”
Upon hearing his daughter-in-law’s plea, Zhou Yongxian, who was not unreasonable, heaved a sigh and advised, “If she just stays here quietly, no matter how long it is, I have no objection. But is she capable of behaving?”
“Mom, Jinlan has already hit rock bottom, she has changed.” Yuan Xueshan urgently pleaded, “Let’s give her one more chance this time!”
His eyes reddened as he continued, “In fact, I… my heart aches too, I feel like thrashing her every time I think about Jing Tong. But Jinlan is innocent, whatever happened before has nothing to do with her, we… we cannot lay the blame on her.”
“Have you lost your mind?” Zhou Yongxian pointed at him incredulously, “Is this what I am concerned about? Haven’t you ever thought about her long-standing affection for Bei Jiang?”
“Feelings are beyond control, I understand her inner bitterness…”
“Enough! Don’t say anymore.” Zhou Yongxian cut him off, “You must stay at home, you cannot go anywhere, nor can you listen to He Jinlan’s words.”
His daughter-in-law is beyond redemption.
Inner bitterness… Where did He Jinlan suffer?
She has been treated like a princess since childhood, pampered with good food and care, like their biological daughter. Yet she fell for her own brother, which was inappropriate in the first place, and he even understood her heartache.
This is simply madness.

The main street of the county town was unimaginably noisy, surrounded by a group of people wielding hoes and sticks. These people arrived at eight in the morning and by eleven, they were still there.
“Fight for justice.”
“A life for a life, a life for a life.”
“Compensation, compensation…”
A multitude of village folk, their emotions running high, brandished their hoes and other farming tools. Some more deadly ones even brandish sharp sickles, shouting aggressively.
