Qian Shizhong sat on the sofa with a gloomy look on his face, while Zou Ping next to him gritted his teeth.
"What a rotten person, a bitch who can be ridden by thousands of people!" Her sad and angry voice was filled with tears and tremors, "It's a shame that I invited her to eat in the house and fed her to a white-eyed wolf! What a shame.
…”
"Okay! What's the use of scolding her here?"
Yuan Xiaochuan put away his mobile phone, his face was not good-looking, and he shook his head at everyone in the living room.
"I can't even get through."
At the celebration a few days ago, Yang Sanli suddenly appeared and sounded the alarm to Lao Qian and the others. At that time, the eighteen black cell victims and Liu Weidong and his wife made an agreement to meet regularly to communicate with each other and work together.
Fight against Hong Daihai and a group of evil forces.
But within a few days.
Yuan Xiaochuan got a bolt from the blue.
Zhang Jie suddenly retracted her confession!
He quickly informed Lao Qian and the others and invited everyone to Liu Weidong's home to discuss countermeasures and cheer him up.
Unexpectedly, the number of people present this time actually dropped by one-third.
Those who were absent, no matter how they contacted us, either hung up the phone or simply turned off their mobile phones. The meaning behind their actions was self-evident.
The atmosphere in the venue was tense for a moment, with anger and hesitation spreading between each other's breaths.
Liu Weidong had a meek temper and could not see the atmosphere, so he took the initiative to comfort him:
"Don't be too anxious, everyone. Even if a few of them recant their confessions, we will still be there."
"Besides, those photos, surveillance videos and other physical evidence are all there, which is enough to convict the Anyuan gang."
Unexpectedly.
"Xiao Liu, think about it, are our enemies just those lackeys from Anyuan?"
Lao Qian immediately retorted.
It was not that he deliberately wanted to lose face to Liu Weidong, but he realized that most people in the room, like Liu Weidong, were just resentful of the betrayal of Zhang Jie and others, but did not realize the true seriousness of the matter.
"No!"
"Our enemy has always been Hong Daihai."
He stood up and explained loudly.
"Those physical evidences can only prove the Anyuan gang. Only we can prove that everything was ordered by Hong Daihai, and that Hong Daihai is the culprit behind it!"
"Yang San decided to rebel against Zhang Jie and the others, not to exonerate the lackeys, but to protect Hong Daihai, the dog owner!"
"Comrades."
Lao Qian’s words speak loud and clear.
"They are trying to survive by cutting off their tails! They are abandoning their cars to protect their commander!"
Most of the people in the living room suddenly realized it and started shouting.
"Okay! So that's what I had in mind!"
"Brothers, we must not let him succeed, and we must not retract his confession!"
"Yes! Whoever retracts the confession will be raised by the turtle."
…
Seeing that the ambition in the field was rising again, Lao Qian breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, there was one thing he kept on his lips that he did not say out loud, for fear of scaring these people. That is, if Hong Daihai succeeds, he will surely suffer the consequences instead.
No matter how badly you were hurt today, how cruel your revenge will be tomorrow!
So he took advantage of the good atmosphere.
"Comrades, I think it is precisely because of this betrayal that we must learn a lesson. We should be closer and more united, encourage each other, and supervise each other."
He took advantage of the situation and took out a "statement" that he had prepared a long time ago.
"I have prepared a statement here. The general meaning is that we must unite and help each other to jointly fight against the evil forces led by Hong Daihai. All confessions are based on the current ones. If you retract your confession in the future, it will be because of threats.
"
"I suggest that everyone come and take an oath, sign and fingerprint."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the venue was slightly stagnant.
Someone said displeasedly:
"Old Qian, don't you believe us?"
Lao Qian quickly waved his hand and was about to explain.
"I sign!"
Cao Xiaofang, a rural aunt, grabbed it in one step. She picked up the signature pen, wrote her name in a "brush", and pressed her fingerprints heavily.
But the words he said were completely different from his decisive actions.
"I, Cao Xiaofang, a rural woman with no money and power, have been fighting against the Red Mao Company for ten years. People around me laughed at me for being stupid, and my children didn't understand me. I almost died in a stone prison."
"I'm old and tired, and I can't fight anymore."
She looked around at the people in the living room, the anger in her eyes was so intense that no one dared to look at her.
"So if I can't bring down Hong Daihai this time, I'll crash to death in front of the Hongmao Building!"
…………
When Cao Xiaofang returned home, it was already seven or eight o'clock in the evening.
To be precise, this is not her home, but the home of her eldest son Xu Dahua. In the past ten years, in order to pursue the truth about the death of her younger son Xu Shaobin and seek justice, she has long abandoned the house and land in her hometown in the countryside.
, he chose his eldest son’s home as his place of residence and traveled around.
She knew that her eldest daughter-in-law, Shaofen, did not want to see her, so she walked in quietly and went to the kitchen to cook a bowl of noodles for dinner.
But when I arrived in the living room, I was surprised to see the eldest son and his wife sitting at the dining table.
The daughter-in-law stood up enthusiastically and instead of calling her "old woman" she called her "mom".
"Mom, come back. Come and eat quickly, we have been waiting for you for a long time."
Only then did Cao Xiaofang notice that the dinner table was filled with dishes, and the big plate among them was actually her favorite "Sweet Shao Bai". This was strange, because she was the only one in the house with such a sweet, fat and greasy dish.
I like it, but my son, daughter-in-law, and grandson are not willing to take a bite.
"Is this the sun rising in the west?"
"Mom, what are you talking about?"
The daughter-in-law kept saying "Mom" and her voice was sweeter than when she handed out red envelopes at the wedding. She diligently took out the bowls and chopsticks, filled the rice and soup. The eldest son watched on the side, as silent as a stone.
Until Cao Xiaofang sat down uncomfortably and just picked up the chopsticks.
The eldest son spoke angrily.
"Did you go to Liu Laizi's house again?"
Cao Xiaofang knew that her eldest son did not like her struggle, so she vaguely replied:
"I am busy."
"Didn't I tell you not to go again?"
The eldest son's tone was very strong, and Cao Xiaofang also frowned.
"I said, there are some things we need to discuss."
"What's there to discuss? I've said it several times. It's time to stop after we get the compensation. You can't fight Hong Daihai!"
"compensation?!"
Cao Xiaofang was already in a depressed mood, but this time, her anger was even more ignited.
"Am I doing it for money? I am doing it for Shaobin!"
However, this time, the eldest son, who never talked much, actually had no intention of giving in and ending the quarrel.
"Shaobin has been dead a long time ago!" He stood up immediately, "Mom, you can't torture the living for the sake of the dead!"
At this time.
The doorbell suddenly rang out from the entrance.
The daughter-in-law pushed her eldest son, but the excited mother and son ignored her.
"What is a living person? What is a dead person?"
Cao Xiaofang also threw down her chopsticks and stood up from the chair, every wrinkle on her face trembling with anger.
"Shaobin is your brother and my son!"
"Shaobin is your son, but I'm not?"
His eyes were red.
"In the past ten years, you have never cleaned the house once or cooked a meal. You were not here when Shaofen was in confinement; you were not here when my second sister got married; a few years ago, when I was hospitalized in a car accident, you were not there.
Still not here! You run around here and there every day, and this home is like a hotel to you!"
The anger in Cao Xiaofang's heart seemed to have been poured out by a basin of cold water.
"I know, but as long as it's overthrown..."
"You know? Then do you know that business is not doing well in my store. Every ten days and a half, there are inspections and troubles. Do you know that Shaofen is a helpless bag in the company? He works the most overtime and gets bonuses.
At least; do you know that Yangyang’s withdrawn personality and poor grades are because he was isolated and bullied by his classmates at school?”
Cao Xiaofang was silent for a moment.
Of course she knows.
In recent years, ever since she came into contact with the truth and more and more suffered from Hongmao's pain, these overt and covert exclusions and blows have come from all directions.
Some of them come directly from Hong Daihai's thugs; some come from people who please Hong Daihai; some come from people who fear Hong Daihai; and even worse, they come from people who follow suit and do evil.
She gritted her teeth and ignored them, and these rejections and blows naturally turned to those closest to her.
Cao Xiaofang knew that because of this, people around him laughed at him and his son blamed her.
But.
Is it wrong to pursue the truth? Is it wrong to seek justice? Is it wrong to do the right thing?
Even if she is wrong, in the past ten years, this matter has become her obsession and the motivation for her to live. Now, seeing that everything will be perfect, how can she give up, how can she be willing to give up?
She was speechless and had to change the subject abruptly.
"Yangyang?"
This is her lovely eldest grandson, who is the lubricant between her and her son's increasingly tense relationship.
"In the bedroom, go to sleep."
The son replied stiffly, and there was a long silence after that.
until.
"Ding dong."
The doorbell rang again.
This time there was no need for his daughter-in-law to push him, so he got up and opened the door.
Cao Xiaofang breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously. She picked up the chopsticks, but was too upset to take them down. She vaguely heard the brief and inexplicable conversation at the door.
"Are you there?"
"exist."
Then, there was a burst of messy footsteps.
She looked back in surprise and saw her son returning to the dining room with a dull face. Behind him were four people in white coats who looked like doctors.
The reason why it is suspected is that these four people are all strong and strong men, and their hair is very thick.
When Cao Xiaofang looked at the four people, the four white coats also smiled at her, revealing four sets of white teeth.
For no apparent reason, a trembling sensation spread from her tailbone to her scalp.
she asked her son.
"What do they do?"
"They are doctors."
"Doctor? Yangyang is sick?"
"Mom, it's you who is sick."
"What's wrong with me?"
"Your brain is sick."
………
Half an hour later.
Xu Dahua sat alone at the dinner table with a dull face.
A man in a white coat left and came back.
"Sign."
He placed a page of forms in front of Xu Dahua.
Xu Dahua didn't react at all, he just stared at the plate of sweet and cold fat meat, sprinkled with a layer of sugar, without touching a bite.
The white coat smiled.
"do not worry."
he said.
"The money has been transferred to your card."
"From now on, no one will harass you in your store."
"Your wife can go to work in the group tomorrow."
"Your son can transfer to the city's key high school and study in the top class."
Xu Dahua said a subtle "hmm".
I signed my name on the form titled "Hongmao Mental Hospital".
