Not surprisingly, Xun Xiangbin was beaten after he went to Luo Xiujuan's hometown.
The Luo family did not recognize him at first.
He came to visit with gifts, and Luo's father was puzzled at first, but later he found that he looked more and more familiar, until Luo Xiujuan's sister-in-law said, "Why does this man look so much like Luo Xiujuan's child?"
Luo's father recognized him at once and immediately picked up the hoe and hit Xun Xiangbin on the head.
Fortunately, Qin Zheng was there to pull Xun Xiangbin away, but Qin Zheng did not help Xun Xiangbin. He just separated Xun Xiangbin and Luo's father. He remained silent while Luo's father was scolding Xun Xiangbin.
All kinds of dirty and insulting words.
It seemed as if Father Luo had returned all the criticism and abuse he had endured in the past few years to Xun Xiangbin.
Xun Xiangbin didn't say anything either.
He fell to his knees on the ground, letting Luo's father point at him and curse him angrily.
Father Luo pointed at him and said angrily: "Don't think that kneeling down can solve the problem. Juanzi was kicked out of the house by me a long time ago. She may have died in the mountains. If you want to find Juanzi, go in and bury her with him!"
He is not a womanizer.
Beating and scolding Xun Xiangbin was just a way for him to vent the gossip he had endured over the years.
When Luo Xiujuan was driven out of the house, her sister-in-law was the most powerful. Luo Xiujuan's mother wanted to protect Luo Xiujuan, but Luo's father was afraid of offending his daughter-in-law who had a grandson, so he stopped Luo Xiujuan's mother.
Although he did not advocate kicking Luo Xiujuan out, he blocked the only hope Luo Xiujuan had left.
If Luo Xiujuan really died in the mountains, her father deserves all the credit for her death.
The excitement in the mountains spread quickly, and within a short while, the door of Old Luo's house was surrounded by people, pointing and talking at Xun Xiangbin who was kneeling on the ground and Luo's father who was cursing.
"This young educated youth actually dared to come back. Isn't he afraid that the Luo family will kill him?"
"Old Luo is very concerned about his reputation. He almost beat his daughter to death before. Isn't this educated youth looking for death by coming back?"
"He should be beaten to death. Don't you see what he has done? Old Luo has been holding his anger for so many years, and today he finally lets it out!"
"That's right. Now that Lao Luo has let out his anger, he can finally stand up straight and live his life as a man!"
No one felt sorry for Luo Xiujuan at all. They only cared that old Luo could get rid of the shame from now on, stand up straight again and be a normal old man in the village.
Only then did Xun Xiangbin realize that Luo Xiujuan was enduring more than just the criticism from outsiders.
The behavior of Luo's father and the words of the villagers made him suddenly realize that Luo Xiujuan was also being looked down upon by her closest relatives at home, and her life was in dire straits.
Xun Xiangbin kowtowed three times to the ground. The gravel scratched his forehead, leaving blood stains.
He knocked two of them.
One was taken by Luo Xiujuan.
Pushing the gifts he brought forward, he stood up and got on the ox cart without looking back.
Luojia Village is located deep in the mountains. Unlike Heishui Village, it is close to the township. Because a factory was built nearby, a flat mountain road was specially built.
The roads in the mountains become more and more difficult to travel as you go deeper into the mountains. The villages are becoming poorer and the people are becoming more and more fierce.
It snowed a few days ago and the snow on the road had not melted yet. It mixed with mud and rocks and froze into shaved ice. They couldn't drive, and didn't dare to drive, so they rented an inconspicuous ox cart.
By the time they got home, it was already dark.
Qin Xiang'e quickly prepared hot meals for them, and filled a thermos bottle for Ye Yun and put it in her arms so that she could warm up quickly.
Luo Xiujuan still didn't go home.
Tomorrow is Monday and Xiaohai has to go back to school. After discussing with Qin Zheng, Ye Yun plans to drive directly to the town tomorrow, take a look at Wangshan Tower, and then take Xiaohai back to the city.
This time Xun Xiangbin had no objection.
Luo Xiujuan wanted to draw a clear line with him completely and not even meet him in person, to let him know that he had lost all qualifications in Luo Xiujuan's sight.
Ye Yun and Qin Zheng wanted to go back to the city, and he couldn't stop them. The two of them had helped him a lot, and he couldn't disrupt their normal lives.
But his heart ached so much and his eyes were tearing uncontrollably that he couldn't sleep well the whole night.
The next day, the weather was nice.
The long-lost sunshine shines on the rolling hills. Although the temperature is still cold, the moment the sunshine shines on the body makes people feel a little warm.
Xun Xiangbin walked out of the house.
In just one night, the beard on his chin grew a lot.
Although he was not in good condition when he came, in order to meet his lover whom he had not seen for many years, he cut his hair and shaved his beard to make himself look as vigorous, clean and young as he was five years ago.
Now, he was reduced to his original form in just one night.
He said nothing, and quietly followed Qin Zheng and Ye Yun to finish breakfast and get into the car.
The car drove all the way to the Wangshan Tower in the town. Many landscapes passed by the mountains. Xun Xiangbin looked out the window blankly, but didn't see anything inside.
…
Wangshan Tower.
Luo Xiujuan was not idle in Wangshan Building either. She tidied up every room. While she was tidying up the hall, Xiaohai sat obediently at the table doing his homework. His serious look made Luo Xiujuan happier and happier.
Two months ago, she never dared to imagine that her son would still be able to go to school.
At that time, she was carrying her son on her back, and all she wanted was for the mother and son with the stutter to survive.
The car stopped near Wangshan Tower.
Ruan Boli, who was busy in the construction team, saw the car and immediately dropped the work in his hands and ran towards the car.
"Boss Ye!"
His shout attracted the other investors who were with him.
Ye Yun got out of the car and greeted him with a smile: "Boss Ruan, long time no see."
"That's right. It's been almost two months since I last saw you. Come and have a look. I'll take you to visit the resort we are building now!" Ruan Boli said excitedly, waving his hand and ready to take Ye Yun to the construction site for a tour.
However, a long arm waved before his eyes.
Qin Zheng stretched out his hand in front of Ruan Boli, put his arm around Ye Yun's shoulders, and said in a steady tone: "No need, she is too heavy to enter the construction site now."
Ruan Boli quickly apologized: "Yes, yes, look at my brain..."
"Lao Gao."
Qin Zheng shouted into the car.
The car door opened, and Lao Gao got out of the car with a donkey face. He waved at Ruan Boli in a bad mood and said, "Take me there."
Ruan Boli didn't understand.
He looked at Ruan Boli, then at Qin Zheng and Ye Yun, and was unsure: "This is..."
"Qin Zheng's partner, Boss Ruan, was it Lao Gao who helped us get Xun Xiangbin's construction materials?" Ye Yun explained with a faint smile.
Ruan Boli slapped his head and suddenly realized: "Boss Gao, come with me!"
After talking, the two entered the construction site.
Ye Yun looked at Lao Gao's back as he left, shook her head helplessly, and then thought of something and couldn't help laughing: "Lao Gao is a man of temperament."
Qin Zheng also curled the corners of his lips.
"He said he would be responsible, so let him be responsible. We don't have to worry about it anymore, right, wife?"
