Chapter 4 Liu Family Intimidation

On the gravel road heading north from Yangkou Village, Jiang Cheng was riding a dilapidated motorcycle at a high speed, with a gloomy expression on his sharp and chiseled face.

"My mother is not yet 50 years old, and her bones have always been healthy. Why did she suddenly need emergency treatment?"

Recalling Pan Lili's worried and hesitant appearance just now, Jiang Cheng knew that there must be some trouble here. There is no clinic in Yangkou Village, and his mother, Shen Qinglian, had a sudden high blood pressure last week, so she called an ambulance and took her to the county seat. He was hospitalized, and his little sister Jiang Xiaohan also went with her, and she didn't go home these days.

The motorcycle Jiang Cheng was riding was borrowed from Pan Lili. It had been left untouched in the warehouse since her parents passed away. The body was rusted in many places and had not been lubricated for many years. There are pumps and the rest of the gasoline in the warehouse. After filling the tires and filling the gas, Pan Lili bid farewell and left the village and went straight to the county seat.

At dusk, Jiang Cheng finally arrived at the county hospital. He locked his motorcycle and rushed into the inpatient department. Just as he was about to ask the nurse where his mother's ward was, he suddenly saw a petite figure carrying a lunch box. Cheng blurted out, "Xiaohan!"

While talking, Jiang Cheng was still running forward. When the other party turned around, the two of them happened to be facing each other. It was a little girl wearing simple yellow half-sleeves and gray sweatpants. She was thin and small but had a charming aura. Cheng then cheered in surprise: "Last night, I still dreamed of coming, and today, brother, you really came back!"

"I haven't seen you in four years. I haven't grown in stature at all, but I have the ability to predict the future?"

Jiang Cheng hugged his younger sister tightly, patted her slender back and taught him a lesson: "Didn't you eat well? You're old this year, why are you still as thin as when you were 14?"

Jiang Xiaohan shook his head quickly when he heard the words: "I ate a lot of food! I don't care if I don't gain weight...Brother, you are taller than before, must be 1.8 meters? Your body is also much stronger, full of muscle mass ..."

She hugged Jiang Cheng's waist, holding the lunch box in one hand, while stroking up and down with the other hand full of curiosity.

The nimble little hands groped back and forth unscrupulously, which made Jiang Cheng feel a little embarrassed. He pushed his sister away and said with a straight face: "You are already a big girl, but you are so shameless?"

"We bathed in a small bucket, why can't we touch it now..."

Jiang Xiaohan's mouth narrowed, and mist began to form in his eyes: "Brother, you have changed!"

"Hey, hey, don't cry..."

Jiang Cheng couldn't see his younger sister crying the most, and the image of a fierce reform-through-labour prisoner that he had maintained all the way quickly collapsed, and he coaxed anxiously: "Isn't it okay to let me touch, let me touch? What was it before, what is it now!"

"It's almost there~"

Jiang Xiaohan's tears disappeared immediately, his brows and eyes curved into a smug smile, and he reached out to touch Jiang Cheng's belly again, as if declaring his sovereignty.

Seeing this, Jiang Cheng could only sigh inwardly. Even if there is no blood relationship, they are brothers and sisters after all. Xiaohan will marry sooner or later, how can he live with him so carelessly for the rest of his life?

But when he changed his mind, Jiang Cheng felt that it was not absolutely impossible to live like this for the rest of his life...

Putting aside the messy and dangerous thoughts, Jiang Cheng changed the subject and said, "Xiaohan, how is Mom?"

"It was scary at first. My mother lost her mind on the first day, and now she is out of danger, but the doctor said that my mother can no longer be angry frequently, and must take good care of her."

When it came to the business, Jiang Xiaohan's face collapsed, bit his lip and hesitated for a moment, and told the ins and outs of the matter under Jiang Cheng's questioning.

It turns out that the most important source is the old man of the Liu family in Yangkou Village. It is said that he has a disease similar to asthma. The family received the county hospital and prescribed medicine according to the method for asthma. An eminent monk was invited to practice the Dharma, saying that there is a treasured place in Yangkou Village where Buddha's light gathered, and a Buddhist hall must be built there for Mrs. Liu to recuperate, so that the strange disease can be gradually cured.

This treasure land is Jiang Cheng's home!

If it is just to build a Buddhist hall for Mrs. Liu to live in for a period of time, it is not too difficult a problem. Although Jiang Cheng's family is not very rich, there is still some open space, which is more than enough to build a Buddhist hall. It doesn't matter if the help is effective or not. It is a good thing to accumulate merit.

However, the eminent monk meant more than that. He must remove all the sundries on this precious land, flatten it and build a Buddhist hall. Jiang Cheng's mother, Shen Qinglian, refused on the spot!

You must know that Jiang Cheng’s house is a house handed down by his father who died young for several generations. It can be said that it is the place of faith for several generations of Jiang’s family. Flatten?

When the negotiations between the two families reached a stalemate, Mr. Liu died. The Liu family suddenly seemed to have found a way to vent their dissatisfaction, and blamed Shen Qinglian's "cold blood" for the death of the old man. To build an ancestral hall for the old man, he still insisted on flattening the Jiang family's house, but Shen Qinglian still refused. As a result, the Liu family often came to harass the house, and even used dirty tricks such as splashing sewage and throwing bricks. Both Shen Qinglian and Jiang Xiaohan were smashed.

The more Jiang Cheng heard it, the more ugly his face became. In his memory, the Liu family of Yangkou Village was a group of people who believed in ghosts and legends extremely. He listened to the nonsense he said casually as if it were true. It seemed that the death of Pan Lilik's parents was also "helped" by the Liu family's broken-mouthed people to spread the word.

Seeing that Jiang Cheng's expression was not right, Jiang Xiaohan warned: "Brother, don't lose your temper when you see Mom for a while, it's been hard to stabilize the condition!"

"Don't worry, do you think brother is so unreliable?"

Jiang Cheng calmed down a little, touched Jiang Xiaohan's head and smiled lightly: "I haven't seen you in four years, you little girl is quite sensible, and you know how to read words and expressions."

"Of course~"

The two siblings walked and chatted and came to a ward on the third floor. His mother, Shen Qinglian, was lying on the hospital bed and looking out of the window. Her face was obviously sick, and her gray hair was born before her [-]s. Jiang Cheng felt sore at the sight. I couldn't help shouting tremblingly: "Mom!"

Shen Qinglian turned her face blankly, and after seeing Jiang Cheng's appearance, she immediately showed joy: "Son? Why did you come back so silently, at least let me know in advance! I will let Xiaohan pick you up."

"What will my family pick up? How have you been doing in the past four years?"

The reunion of the three members of the closest family inevitably asked each other about the past, but it was not long before they inevitably talked about the Liu family.

"Their old man was seriously ill, and he didn't want to find a way to find a big hospital in the city or the provincial capital for treatment. He insisted on believing the nonsense of a liar monk to set up a Buddhist temple, and it was our fault for delaying his illness and death. It's really worse than before. Overbearing!"

Jiang Cheng controlled his emotions and didn't show too much anger, but a cold light flashed in the depths of his eyes.

"If it's only in the village, Mom won't be afraid of them, but..."

Shen Qinglian sighed: "The Liu family has the support of people who live in the construction bureau in the county, we can't fight!"
