Such cruel methods of revenge made everyone avoid provoking him if possible, which made Zhang Lao Er even more arrogant.
They seized the martyrs' houses, drove their widows to suicide, and openly murdered them for money. Even the battalion commander could only secretly write a letter to the troops.
"Where's my machete?" Zhang Lao Er pushed aside the captain and looked around for the knife.
Old Man Tian ran to the mud house next door; that was Zhang Lao Er's house.
He took out a machete that was at least half a meter long and handed it to Zhang Lao Er, saying, "Son-in-law, I've brought you the knife."
The father-in-law's attitude towards his son-in-law was subtly obsequious.
Seeing that Zhang Lao Er had a machete in his hand, the captain did not dare to approach him, but repeatedly reminded him, "Zhang Lao Er, that's someone sent by the military region. If something happens in Peach Blossom Village, neither of us can be held responsible."
"Pah!" Zhang Lao Er spat on the ground. "A little wench trying to act tough on my turf. I don't care who she is, I'll kill her."
As he spoke, a lewd glint flashed in Zhang Lao Er's eyes.
The girl is pretty; her skin is just pleasing to the eye.
It would be best to rape her first and then kill her.
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and he couldn't wait to grab the machete and rush into the house.
crackling sounds...
Clang, clang...
The commotion was so loud that people outside craned their necks to look inside.
"Ah!" A series of screams rang out, making people tremble with fear.
A moment later, Lin Xiaoxiao came out from inside, carrying a machete in one hand and a rope in the other.
The other end of the rope was tied to a person whose face was obscured, with a bruised and swollen face covered in blood.
If it weren't for his clothes, no one would have recognized him as Zhang Lao Er.
As Lin Xiaoxiao took a step out, everyone took a step back, their eyes filled with terror as they looked at her.
Mother!
I saw the female Yama!
Lin Xiaoxiao didn't say anything, but kicked Zhang Lao Er away, sending him flying and crashing into Tian Laotou.
Then he turned and went inside.
Old Man Tian quickly dragged Zhang Lao Er back to the next room. When the little fat boy saw his father's miserable state, he dared not cry anymore.
Much later.
"Serves him right, karma," someone in the crowd whispered.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Zhang Lao Er's retribution has finally come.
The captain stood there for a moment, then led a few young men into Zhang Lao Er's house and rescued Zhang Duo, who had been locked up.
Old Man Tian was worried that his son-in-law had died, so he went to the clinic to find a doctor.
They made their way to Lin Xiaoxiao without any obstacles.
"Mommy..." The skinny little girl looked at Lin Xiaoxiao with frightened eyes, nimbly climbed onto the bed, and hugged Li Cuilan tightly, her little eyes particularly wary.
Lin Xiaoxiao smiled and took out a White Rabbit milk candy from her bag. "Want some?"
Zhang Duo abruptly turned her head away, refusing to eat.
He's still a very vigilant child.
Lin Xiaoxiao didn't make things difficult for her, withdrew her hand, and waited for Li Cuilan to wake up.
Li Cuilan woke up in the afternoon and saw her daughter sleeping next to her. She was overjoyed and hugged her tightly.
Overwhelmed with joy at having found what she had lost, tears streamed down her face.
"Duoduo..."
You're finally back with your mother.
"She stayed with you for a long time before she fell asleep," Lin Xiaoxiao said.
Upon hearing the voice of a stranger in the room, Li Cuilan instantly became like a frightened bird, clutching her child and shrinking into a corner, looking at her in fear.
Seeing this, Lin Xiaoxiao comforted her, "Don't be afraid. My name is Lin Xiaoxiao, and my man is Qin Yushen. You should know his name."
Upon hearing the name Qin Yushen, Li Cuilan relaxed.
Her husband's superior when he was in the army was a good man who sent money to her and her daughter every month for a year after her husband's sacrifice.
She kept this sentiment in her heart.
Upon learning that Lin Xiaoxiao was Qin Yushen's wife, Li Cuilan put her daughter on the bed and climbed off the bed herself, looking somewhat embarrassed.
"Please, please sit down. I'll get you some water."
When I came to my senses, I found myself back home, and I was a little dazed.
But she still went to the kitchen and poured Lin Xiaoxiao a glass of warm water.
"Thank you, sister-in-law," Lin Xiaoxiao said politely.
Li Cuilan sat awkwardly opposite her, wanting to break the silence, but not knowing what to say.
Noticing her nervousness and helplessness, Lin Xiaoxiao said softly, "Sister-in-law, don't be afraid, I'm here to help you."
“The army knows about your predicament, so they sent me.”
"Don't worry, we will not let any of those who blatantly bully the families of martyrs and disregard the military get away with it."
Li Cuilan lowered her head, and large tears dripped down her cheeks.
Ever since Lao Zhang died, she felt that life was meaningless, but Duo'er was still young and couldn't lose both her father and mother.
I wanted to raise the child well, which would be a way of giving Lao Zhang an explanation.
Who knew that Zhang Lao Er's brother-in-law was a scoundrel who snatched her child, occupied her house, and forced her to hand over all of Lao Zhang's pension money.
She had come here to escape famine and married Old Zhang, but now that she had been driven out of the Zhang family, she had nowhere to go.
Zhang Lao Er spread rumors about her outside, and none of the widowers and hooligans in the village looked at her with any respect.
Reputation is so important to a woman; rather than living a life of gossip and rumors, she might as well die.
That's why she chose to commit suicide again and again.
Thinking of Zhang Lao Er's methods, she wiped away her tears, looked up at Lin Xiaoxiao and said, "Comrade Lin, you should leave while it's still early."
Zhang Lao Er is a despicable man who is capable of anything.
