Lian Xiaomin had just received 4 million Hong Kong dollars and was in a very happy mood. She didn't feel sleepy at all. She and Zhang Yuan were talking as they walked home.
It turned out that he had a despicable father in his hometown. He was almost fifty years old and was a notorious lazy man who even gambled.
It's such a waste of the eldest son Zhang Yuan, who is handsome and talented in both literature and martial arts. He was originally a soldier stationed in Guangdong Province with the army. He lived frugally and sent all his allowances home to support his younger brother's studies. He will also have a good future in the future.
Once, Zhang Yuan went back to his hometown to visit his relatives during the holiday, just in time for something big to happen at home.
His father, Zhang Laosi, owed several hundred yuan because he often gambled. One time, he drank too much and was walking on a mountain road at night. He fell down a big slope and died.
But he died, bringing endless troubles to his family.
The creditor is not a pushover. He came to collect the debt with bad intentions and asked his family to pay compensation. The debt could not be settled.
In addition to a younger brother, Zhang Yuan also has a 20-year-old sister, Zhang Meixiang, who is married to the old Xue family in the same village and therefore lives nearby. When she heard the news, she was worried about her mother and brother, so she hurried to her mother's house.
Unexpectedly, these debt collectors were local bullies who relied on being relatives of the director of the commune's pigeon committee to do many evil things. When they saw that Zhang Meixiang was really good-looking, they came up with a bad idea.
No matter whether you have a husband’s family or not, just pretend you don’t know and use her to pay off your debts.
Since graduating from junior high school, Zhang Mai stayed at home to farm because of the environment and the fact that school was closed and he could not go to high school.
Although he was only fourteen or fifteen years old, just a young boy, his temperament was the same as his older brother, very fierce. When he saw that these people were going to touch his sister, he fought with them.
But there were five or six people on the other side, how could he defeat them? Seeing that his sister was about to be humiliated, he got anxious and grabbed a knife from the kitchen, wanting to say some harsh words to scare the other side, and wait for the village militia to come quickly to prevent his sister from being humiliated.
If that happens, what will I do in my husband's family in the future? How can a newly married young wife live in the village?
It was quite a show of force. There was a leader named Bao Jianguo, who was used to being a bully. He didn't believe that a skinny kid could do anything to him, so he just rushed over.
Zhang Mai panicked and fiddled with the knife, which cut the opponent's carotid artery. The bleeding could not be stopped and the opponent soon died.
The remaining people didn't even wait for the militia to come and deal with them. They became furious. This is the nephew of the director of the Pigeon Committee. How are they going to explain this when they go back?
So, after Zhang Mai was kidnapped, this guy was definitely going to be shot.
The legal system was not yet sound at that time, so where was the "Article 20" or self-defense?
Zhang Mai was taken to the commune by them. She was in the dark and knew that she was doomed. Zhang's mother fainted immediately. After waking up, she hugged her daughter and cried bitterly, saying that it was all because of their damn father who had ruined his children.
The incident happened just two days ago, and unexpectedly Zhang Yuan arrived home on leave to visit his relatives.
The Xue family was pretty good. They let Zhang Xiangmei take care of her mother and also helped to find out information from the commune.
I heard that Michael Zhang had suffered a lot and was bound to be severely beaten up. He was first detained in the Pigeon Committee.
The plan was to torture him a few times to vent their anger, and then send him to prison to be shot, so he has not yet been taken to another place to go through the formal procedures.
Zhang Yuan was furious when he learned that such a big thing had happened in his family.
That was his most beloved little brother. It broke his heart to think of the torture he had endured.
This damn old father, it would be a relief if he died, but he caused his family to be broken up.
Brother-in-law Xue Erping asked Zhang Yuan what to do, we are all ordinary farmers, where can we go to seek justice?
If you want to pay off the debt, we can collect it by pooling our money together.
But now someone has died, who cares why you did this? Who cares whether the other party bullied Zhang Meixiang first or whether it was self-defense?
Alas, there is not even this word at this time.
None of this matters anymore because no one cares.
The other party just wants to kill Zhang Mai, and they won’t just sentence you directly. They want to torture you enough to vent your anger first.
Zhang Yuan didn't say much to his brother-in-law and asked him to go back first. When it was late at night and everyone was asleep, he told his mother and sister about his plan.
We must rescue Zhang Mai!
In fact, as soon as he came back and knew the whole story, he made up his mind that even if he died, he would not let his younger brother die in torture like this.
He dug out three throwing knives from the room where he used to live. These were things he had loved to practice with before he joined the army.
In the past, people in the village gave him the nickname "Zhang Sandao". When the team organized hunting, he would shoot birds and beasts and never missed.
Because he had been practicing martial arts since he was a child and had extraordinary skills, he was the first one in the village to report for conscription when the army was recruited that year.
If someone like Zhang Yuan wants to do something and makes up his mind, it is difficult for him to fail. After all, he has extraordinary skills and no ordinary person can stop him.
His mother said with tears in her eyes, "After you rescue your brother, you can run away. I am an old lady from the countryside. No one can do anything to me. I will take responsibility for anything that happens."
Besides, many people in this village are related to her, and she also has relatives there, who will at least protect her a little bit and will not ignore her.
Zhang Yuan had made up his mind and was determined to go all out this time. If anything happened to his younger brother, he would never let the gang in Bao Jianguo go.
Just like that, he said goodbye to his family and went to rescue Zhang Mai overnight.
He was a man with a plan for success. Before leaving, he told his mother and sister that if he succeeded in rescuing their younger brother, he planned to escape to Guangdong Province by riding on a train. He was familiar with the area and had a retired comrade-in-arms who was from Bao'an County.
I heard that in the past two years, after the movement began, many people went to Bao'an County, and from there found various ways to smuggle into Hong Kong to make a living, and there was more money to be made there.
