Lin Qing He was rushing to find faults back then. All was fine if old Lin Family was a little soft, even if they didn't her a lot of help. But how did old Lin Family react?
She didn't hesitate to make such a cut. For so many years, she hadn't asked the old couple's situation. Nor did she send a penny back.
She had put it into action.
She taken on the unfilial label. Who cared what other said. It was fine that she can live comfortably.
But in this situation, she and Zhou Qing Bai had to go back.
Not a problem. Second and Third were on vacation and Eldest was back. Going back now, they can come back before the New Year.
Lin Qing He first made a call to Third Sister-in-law.
"You guys are on holiday. No one would answer the phone in the office. So I called Xiao Mei's side." Said Third Sister-in-law.
"What's the situation now?" Lin Qing He asked.
"Their old house was too old. It was collapsed from the snow in the middle of the night. Uncle Lin reportedly ran out quickly, while Auntie Lin got crushed," Third Sister-in-law told.
So this the true portrayal of catastrophe strike, each fly their own?
Lin Qing He was silent for a while and said, "Then we will go back today."
"Then I'll let your third brother know." Third Sister-in-law acknowledged.
Lin Qing He hung up the phone with her and then came to the train station with Zhou Qing Bai to catch their ride. As for the home, it was left to the three sons to manage.
It took a few days to reach the county city.
She and Zhou Qing Bai first came over to Third Brother Lin's shop. Third Brother Lin wasn't at the shop right now. Only Third Sister-in-law Lin was there.
Seeing Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai, Third Sister-in-law Lin called out with joy.
"Where is she now? The hospital or at old home?" Lin Qing He said
"Took her back to old home the day before yesterday. She passed last night." Third Sister-in-law Lin answered.
Lin Qing He didn't have any expression and asked, "Where is Third Brother?"
"He's in the village." Third Sister-in-law Lin answered. Then she grumbled: "First Branch and Second Branch are really rotten. When this winter came this year, Ah Xiu's father went back to the village to look around, he felt that the roof wasn't stable. He brought them a cartful of things back for them to repair. However, those things were divided between First Branch and First Branch. The old house didn't get any repair. The snow fell a little bit that day and it was crushed."
Lin Qing He frowned.
"Since this winter, we sent home a lot of food. There were a lot of eggs and meat included. But those things often get divided between the two branches. Can't say anything about that. However those are for the roof and they took them!" Third Sister-in-law Lin uttered angrily.
Lin Qing He asked, "When will the funeral be done?"
Third Sister-in-law Lin chattered a bit to her, so her Third Sister won't assume her family didn't take care of the two elders. They had really took care of them.
However their son wasn't just her husband. In front of him were two older ones.
"The funeral will be the day after tomorrow," Third Sister-in-law Lin replied.
Lin Qing He nodded and said, "Let's go over that side first and then go back to the village later. Will my Third Brother come back?"
"He will get home in the evening." Third Sister-in-law Lin responded.
