Free Days in Siheyuan

Chapter 1178: Escape from Tugouzi Brigade

How to avenge my father's murder?
Blood debt must be repaid with blood!
Although he was young at that time, he was not confused at all.

When his father was buried, he keenly noticed that there was something wrong with the expressions of his grandmother and second uncle, as if they had some kind of argument.

But at that time he was immersed in the grief of losing his father and did not think about it carefully.

As for how they discovered it later, it was all thanks to the "good second aunt" who had always looked down on their family.

If he hadn't overheard the other party arguing with his second uncle and saying that it was his second uncle who swung the shovel that killed his father, he would never have believed that someone would actually kill a blood relative for a job.

That was the elder brother who raised him since he was a child, but also the one who went to dig a canal at a young age in order to support his studies.

How could he do that?

How dare he do that!

How dare he...

My father's job was arranged after he saved a big shot, and that big shot arranged it for him in order to repay the favor.

Don’t think that because he was young at the time, he couldn’t see how envious these people were.

But it was precisely because he was too young at the time that he could not understand the evil of human nature.

They are not just envious, they are clearly jealous.

They feel that they are the same people, so why should their own father be superior to them?

It was precisely because he was young and naive that he lost control after hearing the truth and was discovered by the "good uncle and aunt".

Before he could react, he was knocked into the river on his way home.

After struggling for a while, he was finally pulled out by his grandmother who came to comfort his daughter.

He was lucky enough to survive, but the two men had no intention of letting him go. Not only did they replace his antipyretic medicine, they also prevented his mother from taking him to the county town for medical treatment.

In the end, it was grandma who noticed something was wrong and asked him to play dumb.

It just so happened that he had been having a fever for several days in a row, so it was normal for him to become stupid due to the fever, which is why he survived.

But this ordeal drained all his energy, and he didn't leave his room for three years.

But it was also because of this that his "good uncle and aunt" dispelled their suspicions and did not attack him.

For the next few years, he played the fool.

It was not until he was in his teens that he began to recover a little, but still slower than a normal person.

But even so, the two men had no intention of letting him go.

Do you really think he is stupid? He can't see that the old lady next door always sews shoe soles under the big tree in front of his house all year round to monitor him and prevent him from going out and talking nonsense.

Seeing that her son looked so similar to her late husband, the woman couldn't help but hug her son and cry.

You can imagine how much of a blow it was to her when her husband and son met with accidents one after another.

After knowing that it was her brother-in-law who did it, she hated him to death.

But what can she do?

More than half of the people in the entire brigade are surnamed Wang, and this area is basically the Wang family's territory.

Those people in the Wang family are not pushovers. They will not allow the mother and son to tell others about their deceased husband.

The fact that her son had a high fever and a group of people stopped her at the village entrance, using both soft and hard tactics to prevent her from taking her son to the county for treatment was proof of this.

Her family had no power and could not afford to offend Wang Jia. Besides, her late husband had already been buried, and without any evidence, those in the Wang family would not come forward to testify for her.

In order to save her son's life, she could only grit her teeth and swallow it, pretending that she knew nothing.

In order to dispel the suspicion of his brother-in-law's family, he even reluctantly let his son pretend to be stupid for so many years.

It's not like she didn't have the chance to go out over the years, but before she could leave the commune, she was brought back. Her mother and brother were beaten with clubs just because they approached the police station.

Afterwards, this group of Wang family members stopped her and prevented her from meeting her mother's family.

Thinking of this, a hint of resentment flashed in the woman's eyes.

The boy was held in his mother's arms, feeling her body temperature, and infinite courage surged in his heart.

"Mother, it's time for the evildoers to get their comeuppance."

As he spoke, the young man's eyes fell into the void, and he said firmly: "I will never let any of these people go."

"A Shou, mother only hopes that you can live well. It's been so many years since the incident. Can we stop thinking about it?"

The woman looked at her son pleadingly.

It's not that she doesn't want revenge.

But compared to her deceased husband, the most important thing at the moment is her son.

As long as her son is fine, she can tolerate anything.

After all, I have endured it for so many years, and nothing is more important than my son's safety.

The young man came out of his mother's arms, looked at her, and told her the news he had received today.

"Mom, Wang San has been arrested for maliciously damaging state property. Now is the time for us to take revenge."

The boy pleaded, "Mom, please let me go. If I miss today, I might never have another chance."

Looking at her son's shining eyes, the woman felt a pang of pain in her heart.

My son has grown up.

If my late husband were still alive, my son wouldn't have to suffer so much.

"Okay! Mom will go with you."

The woman was determined to fulfill her son's wish no matter what the outcome.

As for the Wang family's subsequent revenge, she no longer cared.

The mother and son discussed it and made a plan.

The next morning, when most people in Tugouzi Brigade were still asleep, the boy's house started to become noisy.

The woman, her face covered in blood, knocked desperately on the door of her mother-in-law's house.

"Grandma, Grandma, Ah Shou is vomiting blood!"

The sharp sound woke up half of the village.

The old lady next door, who was awakened by the quarrel between the mother and son, could not help but frowned and pushed the old man next to her: "Old man, what is the quarrel next door again? Is there something wrong? Why don't you go over and take a look?"

The old man who was being pushed turned over and yawned, still feeling sleepy. He complained, "What else could be going on next door? Except that sickly guy is sick again? I won't go. If you want to see it, go and see it yourself."

The old lady thought about the two dollars she got every month, and continued with some worry, "Old man, why don't you go and take a look? My heart is beating fast, and I always feel a little uneasy. Do you think the mother and son are going to take this opportunity to run away?"

The old man was feeling sleepy, and was annoyed listening to the old lady's chatter.

"What can happen? With their physical bodies, how far can they run? I think you are just idle. You do nothing all day long but talk nonsense. Go to sleep quickly. I am more sleepy than you!"

After hearing what her old man said, the old lady felt that she was overthinking. She muttered a few more words and lay back down to continue sleeping.

Anyway, even if the mother and son ran away, nothing would happen.

Someone had already arranged everything. Even if the mother and son went to call the police, they would just be persuaded to leave. No one would take it seriously.
