Chapter 601 Pretending to be deaf and dumb
Song Hexiu was going to take part in the provincial examination in the fall. With his ability, although she was reluctant to admit it, he would definitely pass.
The more capable he becomes in the future, the more things he will have to take care of.
If people knew that he ignored his biological mother, he would never have a smooth career in his life.
If a son is not filial, who can believe that he can be a good official?
Zi Yuan said impatiently, "Enough, we're not here to listen to you quarrel. Hurry up and answer my questions. Whose son is Song Hexiu? Why did you bring him back? What is your purpose in bringing him back?"
The people from the old Song family just knelt with their heads down and said nothing.
Seeing this, the villagers didn't dare to breathe.
It was the first time they had seen such a serious scene.
This is almost the same as the county magistrate interrogating a prisoner.
But the person interrogating me felt even more terrifying than the county magistrate. The county magistrate would at most just beat me with a stick, but this guy would use a knife at the slightest provocation.
Zi Yuan said, "Since you're playing dumb, don't blame us for being rude. Come on, cripple Song Hewei's legs. If they still don't tell the truth, cripple his hands!"
"yes."
The guards immediately took Song Hewei out alone.
One of the guards immediately drew his sword and was about to stab Song Hewei's knee.
Song Hewei had never encountered such a scene before. He had no time to call for help. His eyes rolled back and he fainted on the spot.
The guards didn't care whether Song Hewei was unconscious or not, they just focused on executing orders.
Song Xiangqian was instantly frightened and said anxiously, "No!"
The guard's sword just pierced Song Hewei's pants.
Ziyuan waved his hand and the guards immediately retreated.
"Hurry up and tell me, or none of you will go home alive today!"
Song Chuman sighed, this was too scary, fortunately Ziyuan was on her side.
Li Cuicui was anxious, "Do you really want to tell me? If you tell me, there will be no chance of living a good life."
Song Xiangqian yelled, "What's more important, the future or your son's legs?"
They didn't commit any murder or arson, and their crimes weren't capital, so they didn't need to sacrifice their son's legs.
Li Cuicui choked.
Ziyuan yelled, "Hurry up!"
Song Xiangqian had no choice but to tell you what happened that year, "I'm telling you the truth, whether you believe it or not, I'm telling the truth."
"This Song Hexiu in front of me is indeed not my biological son."
"I do have a son named Song Hexiu. When he was thirteen, my wife and I took him out. We were accidentally encountered by robbers on the road. While fleeing, my son accidentally fell off a cliff. When we found him, he was already dead, his body had been gnawed by wild beasts, leaving only a trace of skin."
"Fortunately, even though his face was injured, we were able to recognize him as our son."
"Song Hexiu was our eldest son, and we loved him the most. When he died, we were both heartbroken and couldn't accept the fact that we had lost our son. We stayed at the bottom of the cliff for a long time."
"Later, we remembered that we still had our two sons to rely on. Just as we were trying to gather our spirits and figure out how to bring our sons' bodies back, another person fell from the cliff. That person is now Song Hexiu."
"His luck was better than our son's, as he fell on a treetop just below the cliff."
"Just when the two of us were stunned, Song Hexiu fell from the tree again."
