Reborn in the 1980s: Recapture My Devoted Husband-Chapter 676 - 654: Retribution

Moreover, the Third Son of the Zhang Family doesn’t meet the requirements.

If he were the material for a soldier, he wouldn’t miss the chance. But this Third Son of the Zhang Family is indeed unsuitable.

Decisively shaking his head, "How can he be a hunchback at such a young age? And his height doesn’t meet the standard. He’s not fit to be a soldier now. Better to find another path."

"How is he not suitable? Aren’t you the leader? If your own kid goes to the military, isn’t it just a word from you?" Liang Weixiang got anxious as soon as she heard bad news about her son. "Ah Mei, Guozhi, I was wrong before, it was my fault, but that’s all on me. You can’t let my mistakes affect the child’s future. If you’re angry, be angry at me. Yes... Yes, we’ll definitely pay back the money. Once Ah Hong becomes a soldier, he’ll have a salary every month. My Da Guo does carpentry, and after a couple of years, we’ll have saved enough money, and we’ll definitely pay you back then."

"This isn’t about money; your kid is unsuitable. I don’t have the power to give you any backdoor opportunities."

"Guozhi, how can this be a backdoor? The kid has the ability; it’s just a word from you. Please help the child. Our family will be grateful to you forever. We won’t trouble you in the future." Liang Weixiang felt a bit anxious.

She had humbled herself so much, yet they showed no regard for familial bonds.

"The military has discipline; if everyone were like you, what would the military become? Becoming a soldier isn’t a joke; you can’t join and leave on a whim. Your kid is unsuitable, just unsuitable. No point in saying more; you should go back." Liang Hongmei frowned and directly rejected on behalf of Lin Guozhi.

Since they’ve returned, many families in the village have this idea, and there are plenty more suitable kids than Ah Hong.

Even if suitable, her Guozhi couldn’t just promise them so easily. The recruiters are different every time and not always from their district.

If someone suitable wants to join the army, calling him to tell the recruiters at the time could simplify things.

But this Third Son of the Zhang Family is indeed unsuitable. Just getting past Lin Guozhi would be a challenge. He’s always known to keep personal and professional separate, and wouldn’t soften up just because they’re relatives, especially for Liang Weixiang’s son.

"Hmph, stupidity is useless; Uncle just looks down on our whole family. If today it were Ah Song asking, Uncle would surely agree without a second thought. People with abilities always look after their own. And you guys, you’d rather help outsiders than us. What kind of relatives are we, Mom? Let’s go."

This time Liang Weixiang was composed, but her son was being difficult and walked out with a sulky face.

Pushing her along as they left.

Liaing Weixiang looked at their family’s cold attitude, feeling aggrieved, sat in the cart, pointed at Liang Hongmei angrily and said, "Liang Hongmei, you’ve grown capable now, learned to hold grudges... I just went to S City to ask for a bit of help, find a job to make some money, and you not only kicked me out but watched as that tramp Ye Qing swindled us mother and daughter. That was fine, yet for those few hundred dollars, your daughter disregards our familial connections wanting to send us to the police station. I’m desperately begging now, admitting my mistakes to you, and you’re so cruel to ruin the child’s future? You’re heartless, getting some money and your tail goes up. Don’t even recognize your kin anymore." Early in the morning, Liang Weixiang shouted outside their door, every word loud and "reasonable," drawing nearby neighbors to look over.

Liang Weixiang seemed to not have had enough, suddenly smiled at Lin Guozhi, saying, "You probably don’t know, before you came back, my Ah Mei had an old beau. Heard he’s a little leader. I saw them several times while I was there. Always wandering into Liang Hongmei’s room. My Dan Dan works at the shop, sees that man going to the shop daily to find Liang Hongmei. She’s a woman, needing a man, how could she resist this temptation? Hugging like a mother hen every day, who knows how many green hats your wife has given you."

Liang Weixiang’s careless words seemed to have no impact on the Lin Family.

A shadow of a stern expression was on Lin Guozhi’s face, intimidating even without anger, his gaze at Liang Weixiang appeared frightening.

One expression from Lin Guozhi frightened Liang Weixiang into shrinking her neck, sudden fear without reason.

Liang Weixiang, initially speaking fiercely, suddenly quieted down, shrinking her neck and bowing her head, dared not make a sound.

The Third Son of the Zhang Family snorted, continued pulling Liang Weixiang out.

Neighbors, seeing nothing interesting, silently returned to their homes; no one would foolishly go forward to ask.

"Don’t let those two ruin our mood, let’s go play cards, back inside to play." Lin Guozhi pulled Liang Hongmei, calling the kids back inside to play.

They didn’t really care; they knew whenever encountering Liang Weixiang’s family, nothing good came of it.

Seeing her face and legs, seemed that after returning home a few days ago, she hadn’t missed a beating. But Liang Weixiang vented so unpleasantly that Lin Wan and the others worried their father might misunderstand their mother.

"Dad, don’t listen to Liang Weixiang’s nonsense, it’s all untrue," Lin Wan cautiously whispered.

Resulting in Lin Guozhi helplessly shaking his head.

"That Du Guangjun, right? Dad knows, mom told me privately about it."

The kids smiled instantly, glancing at their own mom with blame, seeing Liang Hongmei smile awkwardly.

Their dad trusted their mom, and no barriers existed between them, good thing it didn’t cause disputes over Du Guangjun.

Lin Guozhi chuckled, "Lucky I came back in time; if I were a little late, I’m afraid your mom would abandon me."

The way dad spoke to mom in front of the kids sometimes left them speechless.

Mom blushed profusely.

....

The Third Son of the Zhang Family, angry and unrestrained, reached Liang Jian Country’s home with a cold face, as if someone owed him money.

Visiting relatives over the new year, with such sour expression, it wasn’t pleasant for anyone.

It made Liang Jian Country’s family uncomfortable too; fortunately, the eldest son and daughter-in-law went visiting relatives.

That would’ve been it, but Zhang A Hong, after eating, left sulking without a word, ignoring Liang Weixiang.

Anger made Little Grandmother crash things.

Anger aside, seeing her daughter in such condition pained her, thinking how Zhang Daguo recently went too far.

Beating her this way without a word was bad enough, yet not taking Ah Xiang for treatment.

If her leg remained untreated long, how could she stand again?

No choice, originally Liang Jian Country thought of asking Lin Guozhi, having Han Yi drive them to the county to treat Liang Weixiang’s leg. Who knew they’d cause trouble at their home early morning, saying such nasty things.

Liang Jian Country had no face to request a car.

He borrowed the village’s tractor, took his youngest son and daughter-in-law to the county.

Upon examination, her leg bone fracture, untreated in time, had dragged too long, repeating the injury anew.

Even if healed, it wouldn’t be very agile.

Liang Weixiang cried directly on the spot, cursing Zhang Daguo’s ancestors for eighteen generations.

Liang Jian Country could only sigh beside, who to blame, blame his sister for lacking spirit, ruining a good home.

Though the sister erred, Zhang Daguo was not innocent either, nor his three sons.

Back home, Liang Jian Country took two sons and pushed Liang Weixiang to their village.

Telling off Zhang Daguo and his three sons properly. Zhang Daguo eventually promised to care attentively for Liang Weixiang.

Finally resolving matters.

Even on the second day of the new year, unrest persisted, leading to Aunt’s complaints, who returned and vented to their mom.

Lin Family thought this was self-inflicted by Liang Weixiang.

That night... Lin Guozhi and Han Yi quietly visited Li Fugui’s home late, while everyone was asleep. Plan was to search their place to find that old letter.

Who knew they’d stumble upon some spicy scene upon entering the courtyard. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Seeing this, Lin Guozhi frowned, bringing Han Yi back.

No outcome this time, yet discovering this secret was rewarding.

...Lin Family stayed home until the second day of the new year, departing early on the third.

They reached Z City on the fifth of the new year.

Lin Wan and Han Yi spent two days in Z City, then promptly returned to S City.

On the way, Lin Wan talked with Han Yi about buying a car. This time Han Yi didn’t oppose.
