Zhao Yonggang and his son were shocked.
"Dad, are the police here? Are they coming after you?
It’s over! I can’t escape this time.” Zhao Xiaoan muttered nervously.
The knocking on the door continued, and the father and son in the room were running around in panic.
Zhao Yonggang saw that the only place he could hide in the room was under the bed.
"Xiao An, get under the bed quickly."
He shoved his son under the bed.
"Open the door! Open the door!"
Hearing the voice, Zhao Yonggang and his son breathed a sigh of relief. It was Lin Xiuhua who came.
Zhao Yonggang opened the door of the room and as soon as Lin Xiuhua walked in, he was slapped twice by Zhao Yonggang.
"You damn bitch, how dare you scare me!" He slapped Lin Xiuhua a few more times while saying this.
I haven't done anything to her for several years, and now this damn woman dares to act like a tyrant and bully me.
Lin Xiuhua covered her face: "Zhao Yonggang, you dare to hit me! Don't you want to live a good life with me anymore?"
Zhao Yonggang kicked her to the ground and said, "Shut up! If you scream again, I'll kill you."
Lin Xiuhua was so scared that she didn't dare to say a word. Just as she was about to get up, she saw Zhao Xiaoan crawling out from under the bed.
"Xiao An, why are you under the bed?"
Zhao Xiaoan stood up and patted the dust off his body: "Mom, you can't be so scary.
What are you doing here?"
Lin Xiuhua got up and said, "You haven't been home for a long time. Mom doesn't know where you are?
Your father didn't tell me, so I had to secretly follow him to see you."
Zhao Yonggang stared at Lin Xiuhua: "Did Xiaoya tell you to follow me?"
Lin Xiuhua didn't dare to look at Zhao Yonggang. The man's crazy look just now made her unconsciously feel a little scared.
When I get home, Xiaoya will be there. I’ll see how she deals with this dead man.
Lin Xiuhua felt a little aggrieved: "When Xiaoya said you must know where your son is, I didn't believe it.
I thought if you knew, you would definitely tell me.
I didn't expect her to guess it right. You two don't even believe me and you want to hide it from me."
Lin Xiuhua wiped away her tears sadly.
Zhao Xiaoan yelled, "Mom, are you crazy? I'm your biological child!
You can't help Lin Zhiya plot against your own son just because she's rich."
Lin Xiuhua quickly defended herself: "Xiao An, how could Mom plot against you?
But Xiaoya is in trouble, and as her brother, it is your duty to help her.
Only when Xiaoya is well can our family live a good life, right?"
Zhao Xiaoan laughed in anger: "Mom, you clearly know that Dong Ge and the others went in to help Xiaoya, which means that the group Xiaoya has to deal with is not simple.
Instead of asking me to get out of the way, you asked me to stand up for her. Aren't you deliberately trying to harm me?"
Zhao Yonggang took out a cigarette, handed one to his son, took out a matchbox, lit a match, and the father and son lit the cigarettes.
Lin Xiuhua sighed, "Xiaoya is a stubborn child. She suffered such a great loss, and she would feel uncomfortable if she didn't retaliate."
Zhao Yonggang snorted coldly: "Then we still have you.
You can go and help Lin Zhiya yourself."
Lin Xiuhua just said: "They are not afraid of me."
Zhao Xiaoan then interjected, "Mom, go back and carry a kitchen knife with you. I guarantee that nine out of ten people will be scared of you."
Lin Xiuhua was speechless.
There was not even a stool in the room, so she had to lean against the wall.
"Xiao An, when will this hiding from place end?"
Zhao Xiaoan looked at Lin Xiuhua and said, "Mom, Dong Ge and the others are in jail, and I'm worried that they will betray me.
Please give me some money. I need to go out and stay away. I will come back when this storm is over and everything is fine.
When the time comes, I won't leave. I'll find a job, marry a wife to take care of you two, and give birth to a son for you to take care of and play with."
Zhao Yonggang and Lin Xiuhua's eyes lit up when they heard this. Their son finally became sensible.
Lin Xiuhua nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I'll give you the money tomorrow."
Zhao Xiaoan warned Lin Xiuhua not to let Lin Zhiya know about this.
Zhao Yonggang followed Lin Xiuhua back, but Lin Zhiya was still locked in her room and had not come out.
Just as Lin Xiuhua was about to go see Lin Zhiya, she was stopped by Zhao Yonggang.
"Don't disturb Xiaoya, let her have a good rest.
Take out the money, and I'll buy something for the child."
Lin Xiuhua thought for a moment and said, "It's not too late to get it tomorrow."
Zhao Yonggang clenched his fists and said, "It's Chinese New Year, and many shops are closed.
I might have to go to a few more stores and still not be able to buy it."
Lin Xiuhua took out the iron box containing the money, opened the small lock, and found more than two hundred yuan inside.
"This is all our family savings."
She took out five yuan and handed it to Zhao Yonggang: "Take this five yuan and buy some dry food for your son to eat on the road.
Let's send the remaining two hundred yuan to him together tomorrow."
When Zhao Yonggang saw Lin Xiuhua hid the box at the bottom of the wardrobe, he got up and went to cook.
While Lin Xiuhua was not paying attention, Zhao Yonggang took the iron box and ran away.
The box is locked and he can't open it, but Xiao An has a way to open it.
Sure enough, Zhao Xiaoan took the iron box, looked at the padlock on it, took out a small piece of wire from his trouser pocket, and opened it in two or three seconds.
"Dad, is this all the money our family has?"
Zhao Yonggang nodded and said, "Xiao An, I think your mother will definitely tell Xiao Ya about you.
Xiaoya is also a difficult person to deal with. Your mother might surrender.
You'd better leave now."
Zhao Xiaoan thought for a moment: "Dad, then I'll listen to you and leave now!"
Zhao Yonggang and his son rode their bicycles straight to the train station.
Lin Xiuhua prepared the meal and saw that Zhao Yonggang had not come back yet. Just as she was about to call Lin Zhiya to get up and eat, she saw her push the door open and walk out.
Seeing that Zhao Yonggang was not at home, Lin Zhiya asked Lin Xiuhua: "Aunt, when you went out with your uncle this morning, did you see your cousin?"
Lin Xiuhua shook her head: "Your uncle walked fast and I lost him."
Lin Zhiya glanced at her suspiciously: "Then why did you come back with my uncle?"
Lin Xiuhua looked back at her calmly: "Xiaoya, I met your uncle at the gate.
I asked him about it, but he denied it and left again in a huff.
Lin Zhiya was shocked: "Aunt, what did you say? My uncle is out again now?"
Lin Xiuhua snorted: "He's not out yet. Come on, let's ignore him and eat first."
Lin Zhiya yelled, "Aunt, if you ask him rashly like this, he must have gone to inform my cousin again.
You said how miserable your life is, that your husband and son are wary of you and don't agree with you."
Lin Zhiya's words touched Lin Xiuhua's sore spot, and she sat on the sofa and wiped away her tears.
