Zhang Cuiying was also unsure. She had something on her mind, but she couldn't tell her son.
After spending more than half a month with Tian Wenjun, she found that this girl was very smart, much smarter than her daughter.
Tian Wenjun said: "Mom, let me tell you the truth.
I think Yang Wei will definitely not change.
If he could change, he would have changed it long ago.
I asked them to write a letter of guarantee because I was afraid that Xiaohong would suffer if she went back this time."
"You've thought things through, what are we going to do next?"
"Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and the day after tomorrow, Jianguo, Baoguo and I will go to their house early in the morning to check on them.
Things would have turned out well if Xiaohong hadn't been beaten.
If Xiaohong gets beaten, we have to bring her back even if she blames us later."
Zhang Cuiying said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Zhang Cuiqi felt a little more at ease.
On New Year's Eve, Chen Liye got up in the morning, cut some red paper, and wrote a few couplets in his poor handwriting.
Chen Jianguo put up the couplets while Tian Wenjun was making dumplings in the kitchen.
The family had dinner early.
Tonight, everyone seems to have a poor appetite.
They all knew it.
Chen Xiaohong was beaten so badly that she lay on the ground unable to move, and her whole body was in great pain.
Later she was awakened by the cold, and she struggled to get up and get into bed.
She didn't know how much time had passed, she only knew that at this moment she just wanted to go home.
No one in Yang Wei's family paid any attention to her.
She stared at the pitch-black sky above her head, smiled bitterly, and then burst into tears.
Mother Yang was right, she was really a bitch.
Knowing what kind of person Yang Wei is, he still foolishly believed him.
In the kitchen, Yang's mother made dumplings and served the hot dumplings on the table. Yang's father and son also drank a few glasses of wine together.
Yang Wei thought of the letter of guarantee and asked worriedly, "Mom and Dad, will Chen Xiaohong starve to death?"
"I didn't get a single bite of food or a single drop of water yesterday. Will she die?"
Mother Yang said, "You won't die from starvation for two or three days, so don't worry."
Father Yang said, "She died of starvation. She refused to eat or drink, not because we didn't give her food."
Mother Yang agreed: "That's right."
Yang Wei thought so too.
That night was a torment for the Chen family.
In the early morning, Zhang Cuiying had a dream.
In the dream, Xiaohong was covered in blood and standing at the door of her house.
Zhang Cuiqi woke up from her sleep in shock, breaking out in a cold sweat.
Chen Kaifang asked, "What's wrong?"
"I dreamed that something happened to Xiaohong."
Chen Kaifang sighed.
"It's useless to think about it at this point. Let's wait until tomorrow morning and let Jianguo and the others go and take a look under the pretext of visiting the emperor."
Zhang Cuiqi sighed again.
"It's the only way."
In fact, Chen Jianguo didn't fall asleep either. It was almost dawn when he closed his eyes and slept for a while.
Last night, he tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, and Tian Wenjun didn't sleep well either.
After dawn, Tian Wenjun pushed Chen Jianguo and said, "Get up. There's something going on."
Chen Jianguo opened his eyes, stood up and pinched his aching brow bone.
"Are you going to pick up Xiao Hong?"
"Yes, I hope we can get her back."
"What if she comes back?"
"If she doesn't come back, I will never care about her again."
Chen Jianguo got up quickly without even having breakfast. The three of them took the snacks and dried meat that Yang Wei had brought last time and went to Yangjia Village.
Early in the morning, Yang Wei and his family were still asleep when they were awakened by a series of hurried knocks on the door.
Yang Wei continued to sleep with the quilt in his arms, and his mother impatiently lifted the quilt, sat on the kang and yelled, "Who is it?"
"Chen Jianguo——"
When Yang's mother heard the three words "Chen Jianguo", she hadn't reacted yet, she just felt that the name sounded familiar.
Mother Yang muttered, "Whose unlucky son is this? He comes to bother me on the first day of the new year."
Mother Yang put on her coat as heavy snow was falling in the yard.
When the door opened, Yang Xue looked up and saw a tall man standing in front of her.
Who is this person?
Her eyes fell on Chen Baoguo who was standing beside her, and she was startled.
Isn’t this the second son of the Chen family?
Why are they here so early in the morning?
Mother Yang asked unhappily, "Why are you here?"
Chen Jianguo said, "It's the first day of the first lunar month, can't you come and see my sister?"
When Yang's mother thought of the person lying half-dead on the bed, her heart suddenly tightened.
It's over now. I didn't expect them to come to my door so soon.
No matter what, they must not be allowed to see Chen Xiaohong.
Mother Yang felt guilty and blocked the door.
"She's not okay, hurry up and leave."
Chen Jianguo felt something was wrong as soon as he heard it.
His expression turned cold.
"Where is she? Where is my sister?"
"I really don't know. Hurry up."
Chen Jianguo pushed Yang's mother aside and walked into the middle of the yard to look around.
Chen Baoguo said: "Brother, this room belongs to my younger sister."
Chen Jianguo's eyes turned colder and he strode towards Chen Xiaohong's room.
When Tian Wenjun was about to go in, Chen Jianguo said, "Don't go in yet. Let's go in and take a look."
Tian Wenjun nodded. She looked around the yard. It was full of pig manure and no one had cleaned it up. It looked terrible.
When Chen Jianguo went in, he saw that Chen Xiaohong had a swollen nose and face, she was not even covered with a blanket, her clothes were covered in dirt, her eyes were closed, and she was lying straight on the side.
He was shocked.
Sure enough, this bastard had no intention of changing.
He took a step forward and reached out to touch the tip of her nose.
She was breathing weakly, but still breathing.
Chen Jianguo picked up Chen Xiaohong and whispered a few times in her ear.
Chen Xiaohong opened her eyes faintly, and when she saw that it was her elder brother, she thought she was dreaming. She opened her cracked and hairy lips slightly and murmured, "Brother, I, I want to, I want to... go home..."
After saying this, she closed her eyes tightly.
Chen Baoguo, who was standing by, was looking at the bulging quilt. He pulled the quilt aside and saw Yang Wei wearing only shorts. He then dragged him directly to the snowy ground in the yard.
Yang's mother was crying miserably and wanted to step forward to stop them, but was stopped by Tian Wenjun.
Chen Baoguo was so angry that he lifted the door bolt and hit Yang Wei hard.
Yang Wei uttered two miserable screams and curled up in the snow.
After the doors were bolted, Yang Wei couldn't move or make any sound.
Yang's mother was trembling all over as she watched, and by the time she reacted, her eyes almost popped out.
"Hey, boss, please come out quickly, your son is about to be beaten to death."
When Father Yang heard the noise, he got up and put on his pants without even fastening his belt. He lifted the door curtain while holding up his pants, and saw his son lying on the snow in his underpants, twitching.
Tian Wenjun was also shocked when she saw this scene.
If Chen Baoguo beat someone to death because of this incident, then Chen Baoguo's life would be over.
Tian Wenjun stepped forward and grabbed Chen Baoguo's hand.
"Baoguo, now is not the time to hit anyone, go to Secretary Yang and send Xiaohong to the hospital first."
Chen Baoguo finally reacted.
He dropped the bolt in his hand, snorted coldly, ran out of the Yang family and went to find Secretary Yang.
When Tian Wenjun went in, she saw Chen Jianguo coming out holding Chen Xiaohong.
Father Yang said, "You are just like bandits. I'm going to call the police."
