When Zhao Lihan heard this, he immediately stopped, slowly turned around and looked at him.
When Wang Xiaolan heard Zhao Sihai mention Zhao Lihan's mother, she ran out and said to the dog, "Da Huang, go in."
When the big yellow dog heard his owner's order, he wagged his tail and went to the backyard.
Wang Xiaolan opened the yard door and let Zhao Sihai in.
He walked in, looked around, and with a look of satisfaction on his face, he hunched his back and walked straight towards the door of the living room.
Wang Xiaolan's voice sounded from behind him.
"Just sit in the yard!"
Zhao Sihai stopped, turned around, and asked in confusion: "Why don't you let me in for a cup of tea?"
Wang Xiaolan thought to herself, "This old guy, even at this point, he's still so arrogant and doesn't consider himself an outsider at all."
"We just got back, and we don't have any water at home. Just sit here! I'll go in and call Zhao Lihan."
Zhao Lihan walked out of the house with a gloomy face. Wang Xiaolan took a bench and placed it behind him.
"Lihan, sit down!"
When Zhao Lihan looked at Zhao Sihai in front of him, he remembered how Zhao Sihai had asked him to do this and that before, and he felt disgusted.
Zhao Sihai looked at him and hesitated for a moment, then sat down opposite Zhao Lihan, staring at him and said, "Lihan, I'm sorry, and I'm even more sorry to your mother. I was momentarily bewildered, and I'm responsible for your mother's death."
When Zhao Lihan heard this, he immediately flew into a rage and yelled at him. "Just saying sorry, is that enough?"
Seeing this, Wang Xiaolan quickly came behind Zhao Lihan, put her hands on his shoulders, and said, "Lihan, don't be angry. Listen to him and tell him what happened to Mom."
After that, she said to Zhao Sihai: "Before this, I had heard some things about the cause of my mother-in-law's death, but I didn't pay much attention to it. It wasn't until Dabao and Liu San were poisoned that I began to doubt it."
Zhao Sihai looked at Wang Xiaolan in astonishment, thinking to himself, "This woman is no ordinary woman. She's long suspected Huang Jinhua of poisoning me, but luckily she hasn't found any evidence yet. I had hoped to come here this time to say some sentimental words to get Zhao Lihan to forgive me so I could live out my old age here. It seems like that wish has rarely come true."
"Your mother, she is not..."
Zhao Sihai paused for a moment, opened his dry lips and swallowed his saliva. Seeing that he was really thirsty, Wang Xiaolan came into the house and brought out a glass of water and handed it to him. He took the water and drank it all in one gulp.
"Your mother is not from our place."
Wang Xiaolan asked, "Where are you from?"
"No, but her accent is different from ours. Maybe she's from the provincial capital."
"She was carrying a bag and asked me for directions."
So he began to talk about his first meeting with Zhao Lihan's mother twenty-seven years ago.
…
It was a summer evening. When he was driving the cattle down the mountain, he met a young and beautiful girl. She was wearing an army green suit and carrying a small black leather suitcase. She looked like she had walked out of a picture magazine.
"She looks a bit like your wife."
Zhao Sihai was immediately attracted by her beauty. He thought, "It would be worth dying to find a woman like this to be his wife."
As the sky was getting darker, the girl happened to see Zhao Sihai coming down the mountain, so she walked up to him and asked for directions to Sixingang Commune.
When Zhao Sihai heard her say this, he looked at her in surprise.
"You're going the wrong way. You're still a long way from us. If you keep going like this, who knows when you'll get there."
When she heard this, she was so anxious that tears started streaming down her face. For a moment, she didn't know what to do.
Zhao Sihai thought, "It's so late, and there's no one around. I might as well sleep with this girl and take home a cheap wife."
He deliberately tried to scare her, saying, "It's late at night. Wolves often come down from the mountains. Not long ago, a passerby was mauled to death by a wolf."
When the girl heard what Zhao Sihai said, she was frightened and didn't know what to do.
Zhao Sihai took advantage of this and said hypocritically, "I think it would be a pity for you, a beautiful girl, to be eaten by a wolf. Why don't you stay at my house for a night? It won't be too late to continue your journey tomorrow."
"Where is your home?"
"It's not far, just over this mountain."
She hesitated a little, glanced at Zhao Sihai, then looked around. There was no shop in front and no village behind, so she could only agree and follow him timidly.
"May I have your name?"
"Tian Fengying, what about you?"
"My name is Zhao Sihai, you can just call me Sihai."
"OK."
"Tian Fengying, how old are you this year?"
"24 years old"
"I'm one year older than you."
Zhao Sihai learned from her conversation that she had just gotten married and had originally gone to visit her husband's army unit. However, when she arrived at the unit, she was told that her husband had been sent to a certain place to "support the left."
After arriving here, I asked passers-by for directions, but because I didn’t understand the dialect, I got the address wrong and got lost.
They walked and talked like this, and they were quite happy.
When he learned that she was already married, his heart skipped a beat. He originally wanted to take her back to the village, but then he changed his mind and took her to the valley where he often went.
At this time, Zhao Sihai was thinking about how to get Tian Fengying on the way when a strange cry came from the mountain. Tian Fengying was so scared that she quickly hid in Zhao Sihai's arms.
The scent of sweat from Tian Fengying's body filled her nose, and she was stunned as if she had been electrocuted.
He hugged Tian Fengying tightly, his face against her neck. The strong body fragrance stimulated every nerve in his body, and the blood in his body began to boil.
He kissed her madly, and his two dirty hands were rubbing all over her body, especially when he touched her towering breasts, which made his heart beat faster.
Tian Fengying was frightened by his action and screamed. She pushed him away with all her strength and ran forward desperately. She fell to the ground after only a few steps.
Zhao Sihai ran over angrily, sat on Tian Fengying's body and scratched her.
"Who told you to run? Run!"
Tian Fengying struggled and shouted for help, but her voice became hoarse and it was of no use.
"Stop yelling! Even if you scream at the top of your lungs, no one will notice. You might even attract the wolves from the mountains."
"I'm just going to cry wolf, so be it!"
He held down the struggling Tian Fengying and slapped her in the face. He glared at her fiercely and said, "Don't move. If you move again, I will kill you here."
Unable to move, Tian Fengying could only beg him bitterly not to touch her because she was four months pregnant.
Zhao Sihai flew into a rage upon hearing this, and yelled hysterically, "Why, you have a child with another man, and you are my woman."
At this moment, Zhao Sihai was like a mad wolf. He had lost his mind and could not hear her cries at all. He tore her clothes madly, pressed her tightly, and humiliated her again and again.
