Zhang Jizhou naturally knew that revealing the events of that year in public would definitely bring his mother's premarital pregnancy to the forefront of public attention, making it a topic of conversation for everyone.
However, the feud with Zhang Laowu had to come to an end.
Therefore, the fact that she was not his biological daughter could not be kept secret forever.
Rather than letting them use all sorts of filthy language to discuss or even criticize their mother in private.
It would be better to expose this matter publicly.
From a societal perspective, the mother's premarital pregnancy was indeed a breach of the law.
However, the mother did not harm Zhang Laowu; she had told him about it before the marriage.
And to make up for it, she gave him her own dowry after the marriage and supported him.
Zhang Jizhou believed that his mother's upright and honest character, her generosity in supporting Zhang Laowu without any complaints, and her refusal to spend a single penny of Zhang Laowu's money after their marriage were all commendable.
Even though she married Zhang Laowu while pregnant with her own child, she did not wrong anyone, nor did she owe anyone anything.
They should not be attacked with filthy language by uninformed people.
This is one of the reasons why Zhang Jizhou chose to reveal what happened back then in public;
The second reason is that Zhang Laowu's methods of murdering his mother were too subtle and cautious.
Even though he and Fang Yan were 100% certain that their mother had died at the hands of Zhang Laowu.
But they couldn't find any evidence to accuse him.
There was no evidence, nor were there any witnesses who could directly prove the case.
What can they do to him?
Do you intend to use this incident to bring Zhang Laowu to justice?
That's nothing short of daydreaming.
However, he was also very unwilling to let him jump around and find fault with him every day right under his nose.
Zhang Jizhou then thought that he had to peel off Zhang Laowu's fake skin and let people know that he was a murderer.
As his injuries healed day by day, Zhang Jizhou began to think that he should create an opportunity to lure out Zhang Laowu.
Unexpectedly, before he could even come up with a plan, Zhang Laowu came knocking on his door.
This saved him some trouble.
If learning that Zhang Jizhou knew the secret of his origins left Zhang Laowu's mind blank, then...
Then, Zhang Jizhou's last words, "I wish I could kill her," exploded in his mind like a ten-ton bomb, leaving him unable to think straight and turning deathly pale.
How did this bastard know about this?
However, the reason why Zhang Laowu has been able to live to this day unharmed is because of his firm will. For example, even though he killed Xue Wanxue, he subconsciously kept telling himself that Xue Wanxue died of illness.
The concern is that if such a day comes, his expression after the incident will betray him.
Because of his self-hypnosis, even though his mind was no longer functioning and his face was deathly pale, his expression remained flawless.
Zhang Jizhou observed Zhang Laowu's behavior, his brows furrowing slightly. He couldn't help but sigh inwardly, thinking that it was fortunate that Zhang Laowu was literate and had no "ambition" to venture out into the world. He was content to stay in Gouzi Village for the rest of his life, living off his mother's dowry and his own allowance, which was quite good for him.
Otherwise, if this person goes astray, it could pose a very serious and dangerous situation.
It's not that bad people are afraid of how bad they are, but that they must be very careful in their wickedness.
This makes arrest and interrogation extremely difficult.
Clearly, Zhang Laowu is this kind of person.
"Because you hated her, because you wanted to take her dowry for yourself, in the end, she still died at your hands."
Zhang Jizhou walked up to Zhang Laowu, bent down slightly, and gave him a strong dose of medicine.
The point was to make sure everyone heard it, so Zhang Jizhou didn't lower his voice. The onlookers around him heard every word he said, and they immediately erupted in uproar...
"What?! The third brother's mother was killed by Zhang Laowu?!?"
"Ah!!! Zhang Laowu killed Lao San's mother?!?"
"Wait a minute, didn't the third brother's mother die of illness?"
"So, Zhang Laowu has killed someone?!"
"Zhang Laowu is a murderer!"
...
Although everyone's impression of Zhang Laowu plummeted after his "crimes" against Fang Yanyan and Xiaoyuzai were exposed.
After the family split up, he kept making underhanded moves;
Even worse, he conspired with Fang Yaojin to frame the seller, Yan.
However, the failed attempt only made people dislike him a little more, not to the point where they were shocked and afraid to hear that he had killed someone.
Who wouldn't be afraid of a murderer who has killed someone?
What's more, he's a murderer who killed someone and has lived a carefree life for so many years, which makes everyone even more afraid!
I was also scared afterwards!
"Holy crap! I used to go into the mountains with Zhang Laowu to look for medicinal herbs. Luckily I survived, otherwise he would have killed me."
"This person is terrifying. He killed the third son's mother and all these years and he's still acting like nothing happened. In his eyes, is killing a person the same as killing a chicken?"
"Third brother, can we send him to be shot?"
...
...
This is shocking!
Nobody noticed that we should keep our voices down.
Their words reached Zhang Laowu's ears one by one. Gradually, his mind began to function again, and he subconsciously shouted at Zhang Jizhou, "Bullshit! You say I killed your mother, do you have any evidence?"
Zhang Jizhou's gaze was icy. "Purple sandalwood, ginseng chicken soup."
Even with Zhang Laowu's strong mental defenses, upon hearing those two words, his body swayed, and his legs felt so weak he could barely stand.
He staggered a few steps, finally managing to steady himself only by leaning on the chubby boy. He stared intently at Zhang Jizhou, staring intently...
But she just couldn't understand how this bastard child knew about this.
Even that bitch Xue Wanxue didn't know how she died until she died.
How could this bastard possibly know?
The old barefoot doctor is dead. In this world, besides himself, no one should know this secret anymore.
But!
But how did he know that?
Zhang Laowu stared intently at Zhang Jizhou, as if trying to penetrate his eyes and reach his brain to find out how he knew about the sandalwood and ginseng chicken soup.
Unfortunately, Zhang Laowu didn't have any special abilities in this area. Even if he stared at Zhang Jizhou with his eyes until he was like a sieve, he still wouldn't be able to find out how Zhang Jizhou knew about this matter.
"Old Zhang is feeling guilty and scared. It seems that the third brother's family is the real deal."
"Nonsense! Don't you even know what Lao San does? He's a soldier and an officer. Do you think what he says is false?"
...
Hearing the constant chatter around him, Zhang Laowu stared for a moment, then suddenly burst into laughter at Zhang Jizhou as if he had gone mad…
