In the car heading to Baijiang Province, the boy in work clothes looked at the vehicle with Chen Shui tied up behind it, and asked the bearded man in the back seat puzzledly:
"Brother, why don't you bring your sister-in-law with you? That woman is so charming. It's rare to see such a good woman in the countryside..."
The bearded man glanced at him and raised his hand to give him a big blow:
"You kid can't have anything else in your head?"
"Didn't you hear what Chen Shui said?"
"If Tao He comes out and returns to his position as master, and Chen Shui snitches on him, we will all be doomed!"
The younger brother looked indifferent and chuckled:
"But Tao He didn't come out?"
"Besides, we are following Brother Zhang Sheng."
"Who is Brother Zhang Sheng?
That's replacing Tao Sen, so just follow Brother Yaowen's orders!"
The bearded man didn't want to talk nonsense this time, so he raised his hand and greeted him with a shave:
"What the hell, do you really think of yourself as an onion?"
"I'm telling you, neither Tao Sen nor Zhang Sheng is a dog of the Tao family!"
"We people are worse than dogs!"
"Do your work honestly. We can't afford to offend a woman like Chen Shui. Let's bring her back to work honestly."
The younger brother was beaten to the point of losing his temper:
"knew……"
…
Two days later, on Beishan Mountain in Lianzhou City, two heavy iron doors slowly opened.
A bearded man walked out slowly, carrying a package.
He looked back at the towering wall, took a deep breath, with a complicated expression, and then said:
"I, Tao He, am finally back!"
As he said that, he turned to look at the road in the distance, but there were no vehicles or people on it, which made Tao He feel very unhappy.
"Fuck! No matter what, I am still the head of the Tao family, but no one from the Tao family came to pick me up?"
"Is it possible that they have replaced me?"
"Where's Chen Shui?"
"I just remembered, that bitch came to see me for the last time and said she wanted to end the relationship and go back to her hometown."
"Haha, ungrateful woman!"
"There are also Tao Xin and Tao Zilong, one is my brother and the other is my son, but neither of them came?"
There was no other way, so Tao He could only leave on foot.
But Beishan is at least fifty kilometers away from the city. If he walked back on two legs, it would probably take him three days and three nights. If he couldn't find a small shop on the way, he would starve to death.
But I have to go back.
Tao He bravely opened his legs.
He walked for who knows how long in the morning, and the sun was so hot that he couldn't help but open his mouth, like a wild dog on the roadside.
After walking for another whole afternoon, fortunately, Tao He became healthier inside and became less obese. After walking for a whole day, he didn't faint on the roadside.
But now he is sweating profusely, and his whole body is soaked with sweat. There is no trace of the family master's demeanor. He is like a beggar begging for food, as miserable as he can be.
Along the way, he had thought of making a phone call to inform the Tao family. Unfortunately, his cell phone was kept with someone else and had long since run out of power. He couldn't contact anyone and couldn't even call a taxi.
He also stopped passing vehicles on the road.
But who wants to pull a strange person?
Fortunately, just before nightfall, a truck driver saw how pitiful he was and gave him a ride.
After getting in the car, Tao He thanked him. If he hadn't had money, he would have given tens of thousands of yuan to the driver.
He is really nothing now.
Thinking of the days when he could make waves and spend huge sums of money, Tao He felt aggrieved. Sitting in the passenger seat, looking at the scenery passing by quickly outside the window, Tao He started to cry softly.
When the driver saw this, he sighed and said:
"Brother, it's not easy."
"Don't worry about it. As long as we are alive, we will do well and work hard to make money to support our family."
"Look at me, I drive a big car and run around outside every day, but my wife ends up having an affair with the guy next door, so let's get a divorce and give the child to me."
"Brother, I don't know what to do now, but life has to move on, so just keep working. Right now, I just want to have a child and don't think about anything else."
Tao He felt sad when he heard this. He couldn't help it anymore and burst into tears.
The driver was a little panicked and at a loss:
"Brother, you...what are you doing..."
"It's okay, it's okay, we are all grown men, there is nothing we can't get through."
"By the way... why are you alone on this road? I remember that this road passes by Beishan... Could it be that you..."
Tao He sighed and suppressed his sadness:
"Brother, I won't lie to you either."
"I was detained in Beishan for more than a month."
"I haven't even passed the New Year."
"Before I went, everyone in my family listened to me. They had good food and drink. They got whatever they wanted. Everyone in my family was flattering me."
"But when I came out, there was no one to pick me up..."
"I am... I feel really aggrieved..."
The driver brother sighed.
He didn't know how to comfort her.
Just like this, the two men, filled with sadness, drove towards Lianzhou City.
More than an hour later, the truck stopped in the suburbs of Lianzhou City.
The driver handed Tao He a cigarette:
"Brother, stop here?"
Tao He nodded:
"Man, thank you very much."
"Leave your mobile phone number..."
As he said this, he took out his mobile phone, but then he remembered that it had no battery. He felt a little embarrassed and said:
"Do you have a pen and paper? Write it to me. I will contact you when I have the opportunity. I will never forget this busy day."
The driver waved his hand and said nonchalantly:
"Young people in the world can do it with just a little effort."
Saying words that were very quaint, the eldest brother left.
Before leaving, he shouted something to him:
"Brother, now that you are out, you should be a good person.
This sentence, coupled with Tao He's transformation time in Beishan, and what he saw and felt today, Tao He suddenly felt that he was right.
He had thought about coming out to seek revenge against Li Longtu before, but now he gave up the idea.
Be a good person.
Not to mention how kind you become, at least stop doing the same things you did before.
Tao He thought about it, and first went to the bus station to find a place where he could charge his mobile phone.
After waiting for a few minutes until the phone could be turned on, he called Tao Zilong, thinking that no matter what, his son might not ignore him.
Unfortunately, the phone prompts that the other party has been turned off.
Tao He couldn't help but frown, and his mood fell to the bottom again.
Could it be that even his son blocked him?
He called Tao Xin again, with the same result.
Helpless, I gave Chen Shui a shot, but it was still the same.
Tao He refused to give up and finally called the head of the Tao family.
The five patriarchs answered the call over there and said impatiently:
