"Of course not. Educating a child depends on how you educate him. Didn't you see he was dying? Is he your own son? Otherwise, how could you be so harsh?"
Zheng Wangshu, who was standing by, couldn't help but go over and help the child up.
Only when he got closer could Zheng Wangshu see the child's face clearly. Although his skin was very dark, he could see that he had good facial features and a delicate face.
In addition, there is a strange feeling in my heart that I can’t describe.
The child was now unconscious and shivering when Zheng Wangshu helped him up. He looked extremely pitiful.
Zheng Wangshu didn’t like children very much before, but since she became pregnant, the hormones in her body started to take effect, and whenever she saw a well-behaved and obedient child, her heart would always be filled with pity.
Thinking of such a young child being abused, Zheng Wangshu couldn't help but feel sympathy.
"It's okay, don't be afraid, we are not bad people."
Zheng Wangshu patted the child on the back and comforted him in a soft voice.
The child looked at Zheng Wangshu's pretty face and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, then grabbed Zheng Wangshu's arm.
Zheng Wangshu was startled, but didn't say anything. He just kept telling him not to be afraid.
Seeing this, the couple looked somewhat guilty.
"Where are you from? Stop meddling in other people's business. What does it have to do with you how other people discipline their children? You're really showing off. Gousheng, come home with me now, or don't blame me for being rude to your father!"
As the woman spoke, she glared at the boy fiercely, with a strong threatening look in her eyes.
Zheng Wangshu's arm was pulled by the little boy, and his desire to protect was aroused. He subconsciously protected the boy behind him.
"I've never seen anyone as vicious as you in my life. Are you my biological parents? How could you be so cruel? Do you live in a nearby village?"
If he just came down and said a few words and left, the little boy would probably be beaten even more severely when he returned, and this would not solve the actual problem.
Zheng Wangshu planned to take the child to the police station, at least to keep a file there so that the police could keep an eye on it and prevent the child from being beaten to death.
Hearing Zheng Wangshu say this, the couple became even more panicked and walked over to take the child away.
But if Zhou Jingchuan didn't want to, how could they get around him?
"I now suspect you two are human traffickers. You're being tortured into confessing. You must come with us to the police station. Then we'll call your village chief to prove your relationship. Only then can you leave with your child."
Zhou Jingchuan obviously thought more comprehensively than Zheng Wangshu. They were not good guys either. There were so many unfair things in the world happening at any time, and the status quo could not be changed.
Especially in today's society, many children are abducted and sold. The best outcome is that the children grow up, while the worst outcome is that they are beaten and disabled and forced to beg. Such children would rather die than live.
If I hadn't met him, it would be fine, and I naturally couldn't help, but since I have met him, I should help if I can. It can be considered as doing a good deed every day.
Moreover, the child was in a very bad condition. If they didn't help today, he would probably be tortured to death by the couple. This was a living life.
When they learned that they were going to the police station, the couple could no longer sit still. They started cursing and wanted to take the child away.
As a result, Zhou Jingchuan twisted the man's arm directly, causing him to cry out in pain.
Seeing this, the woman next to her cried and screamed, but it was all in vain. She was still threatened by Zhou Jingchuan and taken to the truck bed.
"You two, be quiet and don't move around up there. If you fall, I won't be responsible."
Zhou Jingchuan said this coldly before climbing back into the driver's seat.
The child followed Zheng Wangshu and sat inside, staring at Zheng Wangshu with his big eyes without blinking.
Seeing this, Zheng Guiying couldn't help but frown slightly and stared at the child for a long time.
"Why do I feel that this child looks familiar? I seem to have seen him somewhere."
Hearing Zheng Guiying say this, the old couple beside her nodded in agreement.
"It would be fine if you didn't say it. Now that you mention it, we feel like we've seen it somewhere before."
Zhou Jingchuan was driving and tilted his head slightly when he heard this.
"I think his eyes are quite similar to Wangshu's."
As soon as he said this, everyone was immediately awakened.
It must be said that the little boy's eyes are very similar to Zheng Wangshu's. Zheng Wangshu has big eyes and double eyelids, but the shape of her double eyelids is a little different from others. The tail of her eyelids is the kind that is raised, so her spirit is also a bit charming.
This little boy's eyes are exactly the same as Zheng Wangshu's, so he looks very familiar.
Zheng Guiying twisted her head and looked at the child's face for a long time before asking, "Little boy, can you speak?"
From the beginning till now, the little boy hasn't said a word. Zheng Guiying even suspects that he is a mute.
Finally, the child understood, nodded, and spoke.
“Yes.”
"Are those two people in the car your parents? Why did they hit you? Do they often beat you like this today?"
As Zheng Guiying spoke, she reached out to lift up his clothes. Wow, his body was covered with scars, new wounds stacked on top of old ones, and there was almost no good flesh.
Even the adults were terrified when they saw it, and Zheng Guiying, who had children, was naturally heartbroken when she saw this scene.
The little boy nodded and said, "It's my parents. They didn't beat me like this before. They only started beating me after my mother gave birth to my younger brother."
Everyone fell silent after hearing this. You can't just beat up the older child just because you have a younger one, right? How can a parent be so biased? Besides, the child is, after all, their own flesh and blood. How could they be so abusive?
Not to mention being a biological child, even a stranger would not be so cruel.
"Don't be afraid, we'll take you to the police station. The police will protect you, and they won't dare to beat you like this in the future."
As Zheng Wangshu spoke, he took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the child's face.
The little boy looked at Zheng Wangshu for a long while before he whispered, "Beautiful sister, you are so kind."
Zheng Wangshu felt warm in his heart and couldn't help but touch the little boy's head.
When they arrived at the town police station, the couple wanted to sneak away with their child, but were threatened by Zhou Jingchuan.
After entering, Zheng Wangshu and his team briefly explained what had happened. The police initially dismissed the issue. They said, "There are so many cases of parents disciplining their children. Whose children don't get beaten? These people are quite bored. Making such a fuss and sending the case to the police station? Isn't that just adding to their workload?"
But when they saw the scars on the little boy's body, they all fell silent.
This is not how you educate your children. The punishments people suffered in ancient times were not this cruel.
How did such a small child survive?
Nowadays, many people in the village have a weak sense of law. Even if their own children are beaten to death, they can just wrap them in a straw mat and bury them, and no one will be held accountable.
