Qiao Shan was only trying to coax his wife and didn't have the patience to argue with him, so he said impatiently, "Qiao He, don't be so sarcastic in front of me. Did I force the Fourth Brother to do that? He did it himself! In the end, isn't it you and Mom's fault?"
Qiao He was so angry at his shameless remarks that he laughed: "Blame us?"
"It's hard, isn't it? Mom insisted on getting a divorce, and there was no woman to support the family. The fourth son was young and hot-tempered. When he met a gentle and kind-hearted woman like Lily, who showed a little concern for him, he fell in love with her. He thought Lily was interested in him, and then he forced Lily."
Liu Mei looked at her eldest son, her eyes filled with sadness.
He shouldn't be like this...
A few years ago, he married a good wife, lived with her wholeheartedly, and gave birth to the most promising grandson in the family.
But all this was ruined by Shi Lanlan.
Shi Lanlan must be just like herself, having come from a previous life. Only this could explain many of her actions.
Yes, yes...
Shi Lanlan didn't know what kind of person Ning Suxiang was, but she still insisted on marrying Ning Suxiang to Qiao Shan.
Now, the lives of these brothers have been destroyed...
Thinking of this, Liu Mei stood up tremblingly.
Maybe she was expecting too much.
The Qiao family hurt Qingqing in both lives, but in the previous life, Qingqing still helped the Qiao family live such a good life.
This time, Qingqing just didn't want to help a group of ungrateful people anymore.
So they decided their own destiny...
No matter what, at least they, father and son, had a rich life.
Liu Mei knew very well that she was powerless, so despite her grief, she could only persuade herself to accept reality.
When Qiao He saw his mother get up and leave, he thought she was heartbroken by Qiao Shan's words, and couldn't help but glare at Qiao Shan fiercely.
"Qiao Shan, just wait, if you continue like this, sooner or later there will be no good result!"
After gritting his teeth and saying this, Qiao He ran after his mother.
Whether he was touched by Qiao He's words, or because he felt sorry for his mother and felt guilty, Qiao Shan actually chased after her.
But just as they caught up with the two people at the village road, they saw the captain walking towards Fang Qianqian of the Qiao family with a sad face.
Qiao He's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly helped his mother turn around and said to the captain: "Uncle!"
The captain looked up when he heard the voice, and when he saw Qiao He and Liu Mei, his eyes suddenly became moist.
"Weiguo's wife, and Qiaohe, you little brat, are you willing to come to our village?"
Liu Mei didn't bother to correct his address at the moment, and hurriedly gestured to the captain.
Qiao He translated beside him: "Uncle, my mom asked why you were so anxious to go to my house. Is there something new with the fourth brother?"
When the captain heard this, he showed an expression of pity: "You... Alas! Please accept my condolences... I just received news that Qiao Chuan will be executed at the county court in three days."
"boom!"
Liu Mei felt as if her head was hit by a hammer. Her vision went dark and she staggered and almost couldn't stand.
Qiao He held his mother tightly, holding back tears, and asked with a sob, "Uncle...is there really no other way?"
"It's too late, He boy, your old man is so confused!" The captain said, shaking his head, with a look of disappointment on his face, "I reminded him at the beginning not to get too close to the people at the educated youth point, but he just wouldn't listen!"
Qiao Shan's calves began to tremble.
He wanted to leave, but he felt like he was nailed here and couldn't move.
At this time, the captain also noticed his presence.
He immediately lost his temper: "Qiao Shan, you are happy now. You are half responsible for the death of your fourth child! The Public Security Bureau said that you testified for He Lili, so Qiao Chuan's swaddling crime was confirmed."
After these words were spoken, both Qiao He and Liu Mei showed disbelief on their faces.
They only knew that He Lili killed Qiao Chuan, but Qiao Shan married such a woman and treated her as a treasure, so although the mother and son scolded Qiao Shan, they did not do anything excessive.
But at this moment...
Liu Mei turned around suddenly, raised her hand and slapped him hard!
Qiao He also roared with tears in his eyes: "Qiao Shan! You beast!"
In anger, Qiao He punched his elder brother.
…
Three days later.
There were many onlookers around the execution ground.
Supported by her second son, Liu Mei slowly walked towards the execution ground.
Qiao Hu followed behind with Qiao Weiguo on his back.
——Because Qiao Weiguo had a stroke, Liu Mei stayed at Qiao's house for the past three days to take care of him and his son.
After taking the medicine and under Liu Mei's careful care, Qiao Weiguo was finally able to get out of bed and resume movement, but not as agile as before.
As soon as they arrived at the execution ground, they saw Qiao Chuan's hands were tied behind his back and a piece of cloth was stuffed in his mouth.
His gaze fell on the crowd, but his eyes were unfocused.
What outsiders don't know is that Qiao Chuan has been half-conscious and half-awake these past few days, his mind is foggy, as if he has a fever.
When the Qiao family saw Qiao Chuan's appearance, they naturally thought that he was frightened out of his wits.
Qiao Weiguo sobbed and cried bitterly, his tears streaming down his face. In his heart, he regretted that he had not properly disciplined his son, which led to his son's missteps and death...
On the other hand, Liu Mei, as a mother, had no time to cry. She was anxiously begging the director to allow her to feed her son the last meal.
