Back to 1984: Earning Money, Raising Kids, and Keeping the Household Busy

Chapter 1 Framed

With a loud "bang!", the door was kicked hard, slammed against the wall, and bounced back quickly.

The commotion at Old Liu's house startled the neighbors, and several families in the alley dropped what they were doing and ran out of their homes to see what was going on.

Ma Cuihua glared bloodily at the man and woman embracing on the bed. She rushed over, grabbed Lin Qin by the hair, and dragged her off the bed, hysterically cursing, "Shameless, slutty whore! You actually brought a wild man into my house! I'll beat you to death, you shameless bitch!"

Ma Cuihua cursed incessantly, grabbing Lin Qin's hair with one hand and slapping her hard several times with the other.

Lin Qin was awakened by the pain.

Seeing that familiar and young face before her, the hatred in her heart spread like wildfire. Even though she knew she was dreaming, she didn't care and pounced on her, grabbing Ma Cuihua's hair with all her might and biting her arm hard.

"what!"

A mournful wail ripped through the air.

Ma Cuihua was in so much pain that she rolled on the ground, and Lin Qin, who was also thrown to the ground by her, did not let go.

Liu Yongguo and his wife were so shocked that they forgot to react when they didn't expect Lin Qin, who was usually weak and easy to bully, to fight back and bite Ma Cuihua like a mad dog.

Ma Cuihua's youngest daughter, Liu Li, was the first to come to her senses. She rushed towards Lin Qin, punching and kicking her, yelling, "Let go of my mother! You shameless bitch, let go of my mother!"

Lin Qin winced in pain; the pain in her body told her that it was all real, not a dream!

Listening to the neighbors pointing and whispering as they watched the commotion, she vaguely understood something.

She was reborn! Back to the time when her nightmare began in her previous life.

These are the people in front of you: Ma Cuihua, Liu Yongguo, Xu Manzhi, and Liu Li.

They framed her for sleeping with another man, confirming her infidelity, and even brought her family to the scene, causing her to be severely beaten by them.

No one listened to her explanation, and in the end, she was led back home by her family, who berated her all the way, and she was forced to divorce.

Her hometown village wouldn't accept her, and with nowhere else to turn, she chose to end her life by jumping into the river. Unexpectedly, she was saved by another victim tonight.

Although she survived, she lived every day under the scrutiny and gossip of others. Her daughter was also ridiculed and bullied because of her, and lived a life worse than livestock in the Liu family.

She herself was depressed all day long, and in her forties she fell seriously ill. She had no money for treatment, and after two years she ended her tragic life in pain.

Seeing that the man on the bed was not moving and was obviously not awake, she could only save herself now!
"Didn't you hear me tell you to let go of my mother? You shameless woman!" Liu Li raised her foot to kick her.

Lin Qin's daughter, Liu Yaya, rushed out just in time and clung tightly to Liu Li's leg, crying, "Auntie, don't hit my mom! Don't hit my mom! My mom isn't that kind of person, waah!"

Liu Li nearly fell over from the hug, and in a fit of embarrassment and anger, she kicked Liu Yaya away, yelling, "You brat, get out of my way!"

Liu Yaya rolled twice on the ground, crying loudly in pain.

Lin Qin's hatred intensified. She released Ma Cuihua, got up from the ground, and grabbed Liu Li's neck tightly. "You bullied my daughter, I'll kill you!"

Ma Cuihua's eyes widened in terror as she screamed, pounding her fist on the floor, "Boss, quick! Kill this crazy woman! She's going to kill your sister!"

Liu Yongguo and his wife immediately rushed over.

Knowing she was no match for them, Lin Qin decisively let go, scratched Liu Li's face twice with her fingernails, and pushed her toward Liu Yongguo and Xu Manzhi.

"Ouch, my face! My face hurts so much, Mom!" Liu Li cried out, clutching her face and collapsing into Liu Yongguo and his wife's arms. Lin Qin's reaction caught everyone off guard.

Liu Yongguo was furious. "You bitch! I'll kill you!"

With a loud "bang!", Lin Qin smashed a small earthenware jar for pickling vegetables at Liu Yongguo's feet, and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Call the police! Call the police! Uncles, aunts, uncles, and grandmas, I've been wronged! I don't even know the person in bed! I'll give five yuan to anyone who calls the police for me!"

The four members of the Liu family all changed their expressions.

Ma Cuihua screamed, "Don't call the police! She has no money, don't believe her! Lin Qin, you have no shame, but the Liu family still has our dignity! Nobody is allowed to go!"

Lin Qin sneered, "Let me tell you, I'm definitely calling the police today! I admit to what I did! Don't try to pin this on me if I didn't do it!"

The neighbors saw that Lin Qin seemed to be lying, and since she was usually honest and low-key, not the kind of woman who was promiscuous, some of them believed her for a while. However, no one dared to do anything. Although five yuan was a lot of money, they still had to live here. Offending the Liu family for five yuan was obviously not a wise move, not to mention that Lin Qin might not even be able to come up with five yuan.

Seeing that no one was moved, Lin Qin's heart sank to the bottom.

Just then, Lin Qin's father, Lin Yi, and her second uncle, Lin Zhi, and second aunt, Li Lian, arrived.

As soon as Li Lian entered the room, she stormed towards Lin Qin.

Lin Qin knew that this woman wanted to hit her.

Just as Li Lian raised her hand to slap Lin Qin, Lin Qin quickly dodged.

Li Lian slammed her hand heavily on the cabinet; the loud bang sounded painful.

Li Lian grimaced and covered her hand, cursing angrily, "You shameless brat! You dare to hide after doing such a shameless thing! Our Lin family must have had eight lifetimes of bad luck to have given birth to such a shameless slut like you!"

Lin Qin glanced at Li Lian with a cold look, showing no respect whatsoever for an elder.

In her previous life, it was Li Lian who spread rumors about her in the village, making it impossible for her to stay in Shanglin Village. In the end, she chose to drown herself.

Li Lian was intimidated by Lin Qin's gaze, and her cursing tone weakened somewhat, but she still stubbornly scolded, "Did I say something wrong? You did such a shameless thing and I can't even scold you?"

Lin Qin didn't argue with her; she only saw her honest, dull, and bewildered father.

Lin Yi is only in his early forties, but his hair is half white, making him look old and weathered. He has no sons, only two daughters. His eldest sister married far away and only comes back once a year for the Chinese New Year. The other one is her.

In her past life, she attempted suicide by drowning but failed. She was too ashamed to return to the village, so Lin Yi lived a lonely and impoverished life, suffering bullying from many people in the village. He didn't even receive fair treatment when the village was developed and compensated, all because of her!
Lin Qin suppressed her inner bitterness, walked to Lin Yi's side, and gritted her teeth, saying, "Dad! Go to the police station and report this to the police. I was framed. This matter must be investigated thoroughly today!"

"What did you say?" Lin Yi looked at Lin Qin in disbelief, then glanced at the Liu family members. Seeing their evasive gazes, his heart sank.

Lin Zhi frowned and said, "Second niece, you can't say things like that! You've already lost your reputation. If this gets out of hand, your father won't be able to leave the house anymore!"

Lin Qin glanced at the hypocritical Lin Zhi, then smiled calmly, "Thank you for the reminder, Second Uncle, but I still have to call the police today! If the police also say that I've been seeing other men, I'll kill myself here today to give everyone an explanation! If I didn't do it, no one can frame me!"

Lin Zhi looked at Lin Qin in surprise. In his memory, Lin Qin had always been a quiet and reserved girl who never uttered a word. When did this girl become so fierce?
Lin Yi realized what was happening and nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay! Dad will go right now."

He believed that his daughter, whom he had raised himself, was not the kind of person who lacked self-control.

Lin Yigang had just reached the door when he paused, turned around, and asked, "Which way is the police station?"

No torture for the main character! No torture for the main character! No torture for the main character! I'll say it three times because it's important! The female lead will encounter more obstacles in the early stages, but everything will be resolved smoothly.
