As we walked, the sky gradually darkened. The deeper we went into the mountains, the lower the temperature became, and it felt even colder.

"Yang Zhiwen, I can't even find this."

"It's getting dark. We have to go back and can't go any further, otherwise we will all be in danger."

"Go back now and come back tomorrow."

The people who were hired to follow Yang's mother and Yang Zhiwen to the mountains to search were unwilling to go any further as it was getting dark.

"How can we go back like this? We haven't found our Gangzi yet."

"No, you have to keep looking after me after you've received the money."

When he heard that they wanted to go back before finding the person, he immediately got furious and his face was full of displeasure.

When Yang Zhiwen heard what his mother said, he secretly thought that something was wrong.

Is his mother still thinking that his father is a high-ranking official in the village? Is he still so high and mighty? Is he so arrogant?

As expected, when those people heard what Yang's mother said, their faces immediately fell and they turned around and walked back.

"We have received money, but we are hired by you to find people, not to work for you."

"It's dark now, and we're deep in the mountains. Who knows if wolves or bears will show up?"

"If you don't want to live, you can continue to search by yourself."

"We're going back anyway."

"You, you..." Mother Yang was so angry that her hands were shaking, but she could do nothing about it.

She turned her head and looked at Yang Zhiwen, "Zhiwen, we need to continue looking for your brother."

"It's getting dark, and we're in the mountains. If we don't find your brother quickly and wait until tomorrow, he might..."

As she spoke, tears began to fall from Yang's mother's eyes.

Yang Zhiwen naturally knew what Yang's mother said.

A fool, going into the mountains alone when it's dark, is bound to be in great danger.

But what the people hired to help with the search said was also correct.

It was dark and the wild animals came out.

They may also be in danger.

Am I going to sacrifice myself for a fool?

Of course it is impossible for Yang Zhiwen.

"So what does mother mean is that we should continue looking?"

"Then..." Of course.

Before Yang's mother uttered the word "yes", suddenly, a wolf howl was heard from the depths of the mountains.

After one sound, another sound came.

And the sound was getting louder and louder, as if it was getting closer and closer to them.

"The wolf is coming, why don't you hurry up? Do you want to wait to be eaten by the wolf?" Those people who had already walked a short distance shouted at Yang Zhiwen, while quickening their pace.

"Mom, you..." Before Yang Zhiwen could finish his words, his hand was grabbed by his mother.

"Zhiwen, there are wolves. They are about to come out and eat people. Let's go quickly."

Yang's mother pulled him and ran, his steps were so fast that he didn't look like an elderly person at all.

"Mom, didn't you say you wanted to continue looking for big brother?" asked Yang Zhiwen as he was being pulled forward.

"I won't look for him anymore. It was dark now, and we ran into the wolves. This is your brother's fate."

Yang Zhiwen was silent.

He turned his head and glanced deep into the mountains, only to find it becoming increasingly quiet and dark.

Yes, this is fate! Since it is fate, you cannot change it and you have to accept it.

…

Wei Rou has been waiting quietly at the Yang family.

She is also waiting for fate to judge Yang Zhigang.

She just sat there quietly, not knowing how long she had been there. It was getting dark and she could hear noises outside.

Are you here? Wei Rou raised her head instantly and walked out.

Wei Rou saw Yang Zhiwen and his mother who were still in shock, but she didn't see Yang Zhigang.

At this moment, Wei Rou had already determined something in her heart.

"Are you waiting for us?"

"I didn't find my brother." Yang Zhiwen walked towards Wei Rou.

"There are wolves in the mountains."

At this point, Wei Rou had completely understood.

Yang Zhigang, I can’t go back.

Wei Rou lowered her head with a slight smile on her face, but when she looked up again, there was a hint of sadness between her brows.

"Then continue looking tomorrow?" Wei Rou asked.

"I don't know. I'm going back to my room first."

Yang Zhiwen returned to his room, and his mother also went back.

Neither the mother nor the son mentioned whether they would continue looking for Yang Zhigang.

Wei Rou also understood it in her heart.

Sure enough, the next day, Yang Zhiwen and his mother never mentioned looking for Yang Zhigang again, and they did not go to the police station to report the search.

They have already acquiesced that Yang Zhigang is missing and will never come back.

In other words, it is assumed that Yang Zhigang went into the mountains and died.

Yang's mother seemed sad for several days, but she returned to normal after a few days.

Wei Rou also didn't know whether Yang's mother really cared about her stupid son Yang Zhigang.

She felt that perhaps Yang Zhigang had some weight in Yang's mother's heart, but not much.

Most of the time it's just for the purpose of continuing the family line.

Because Yang Zhigang is missing, Yang Zhiwen is not doing well, and Yang's father is also gone.

So the child in Wei Rou's belly naturally became the only remaining member of the Yang family besides Yang Zhiwen, and the one who would carry on the family line. Therefore, Yang's mother paid special attention to Wei Rou recently, and she never left her side, for fear that something might happen to the child in Wei Rou's belly.

Before, Yang's mother had been saying that she hoped the baby in Wei Rou's belly was a boy. Now, she hoped even more that the baby would be a boy.

However, if it's a girl, there's nothing we can do.

She would also love him. After all, he was the only offspring that the Yang family could inherit. At worst, she could just keep him at home and marry him in.

Wei Rou knew what Yang's mother was thinking, but she didn't pay any attention to her and let her mother do whatever she wanted.

However, something happened in the past few days.

That's what Yang Zhiwen said about losing his job.

"What do you mean it's gone? How did it disappear?" Yang's mother, who was originally sitting, stood up suddenly, and her voice suddenly became much higher.

Yang Zhiwen then briefly explained the reasons and process for his dismissal.

“How could this be? Your father is your father, and you are you. You are different. And your father is gone. How could they, how could they…” As Yang’s mother spoke, she began to sob.

"No, I have to go to the food factory and find your factory manager. I must talk to them and get your job back." With that, Yang's mother stood up and was about to go out.

"Don't go. The matter has already been settled. No matter what you do, you will just make a fool of yourself." Yang Zhiwen said impatiently.

Mother Yang was suddenly stunned. "Then, then I won't go. Then I'll just lose my job?"

"right."

Mother Yang's legs went limp and she sat on the ground, patting her legs with her hands. Tears kept falling and her voice was shrill, "How could this happen? Why is my life so miserable? How did it become like this?"

"My husband is gone and my oldest son is missing."

"Now, my youngest son has lost his job too."

“Why is my life so miserable?”
