Chapter 33 Supporting this family



Feng Guochao kicked Old Man Mu to the ground and said, "You are still quibbling. Everything has been searched out. Who would believe you if you said you didn't see it?"

Old Man Mu was kicked to the ground. He coughed violently a few times and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Grandpa." Mu Zining let go of Mu Dongdong and went to help Old Man Mu. "Grandpa, how are you?"

"Grandpa, Grandpa is fine. No, don't worry."

Mu Zining was so anxious that she shed tears: "Grandpa, I'm sorry for not taking good care of you."

"Ning, don't say that."

But Feng Guochao didn't give up. He stepped on the old man Xiao Mu's hand and crushed it a few times: "Don't you admit that the book belongs to you?"

Old Mrs. Mu could hardly speak because of the recurrence of her old illness and the piercing pain in her hands.

"Please don't hurt grandpa. I beg you." Mu Zining looked up and begged Feng Guochao.

Now that pretty face was tearful, and Feng Guochao liked it even more.

"Your family is stubborn and will not change. How can they be reformed if they are not severely punished? I am here to help you."

He exerted force on his feet, and Old Man Mu let out a scream.

"Grandpa, Grandpa."

Mu Zining: "Let Grandpa go quickly. Grandpa is very old and seriously ill. Don't torture him anymore."

"Huh, why should I listen to you?"

Feng Guochao gave a look, and Bao Zhuangzhuang grabbed Mu Dongdong and hit him on the face several times, making the guy cry loudly.

“Dongdong.”

"Sister, woo woo woo."

At this time, Mrs. Mu finally put down her bowl and chopsticks and rushed towards Bao Zhuangzhuang like crazy. She didn't hit Bao Zhuangzhuang, but was grabbed by Bao Zhuangzhuang and fell to the ground.

"grandmother."

Mu Zining didn't know whether to take care of both sides, and felt like she couldn't take care of either side.

He just kept kowtowed to Feng Guochao: "Please, please, let us go, let us go."

Bao Zhuangzhuang said coldly: "What do you mean by letting go? This is all for your transformation. It's for your own good. After you've been transformed, we can start over."

As he said this, he stepped on Old Lady Mu, who lay on the ground, waving her arms and legs, but was unable to do anything about it.

Mu Zining continued to plead with Feng Guochao: "Please release my grandparents and my younger brother. If you want to reform me, just do it. I am willing to accept your reform. I only ask you to release them, okay?"

"You!" Feng Guochao immediately grabbed Mu Zining's hair, slapped her on the face with his other hand, lowered his head and forced her to look at him closely.

Mu Zining suppressed the nausea in her heart and did not dare to resist at all.

Feng Guochao said: "Since you are willing to take the blame for your family, I must give you a chance. That's it for today. Come back in a few days and see how you perform."

The book they took away left a mess and a lot of old, weak and sick people in Mu's house.

"Grandpa." Mu Zining quickly helped Old Man Mu up. There was blood at the corner of Old Man Mu's mouth, and there was a pool of blood on the ground where he had just lain.

"grandfather."

"Ahem. Never mind. Go check on your brother and your grandmother first."

Mu Zining asked Old Man Mu to sit down and went to see Old Lady Mu and Mu Dongdong.

Mu Dongdong was so scared that her face turned pale, "Sister, sister, they said they are coming again, I am so scared, so scared."

"Be good, Dongdong, I will find a way to stop them from coming, don't be afraid."

Now, she is the only supporter of the family, and she must support this family.

"Sister, what are you going to do so they won't come?"

"I don't know yet, but I will find a way. Trust me."

Mu Zining went to help old lady Mu. The old lady's gray hair was messy and her expression was dull, but at this moment she seemed serious.

"Zining, grandpa and grandma are useless and can't protect you."

"Grandma, I failed to protect your grandfather and your brother."

Her grandmother had been acting crazy the whole time, only coming to her senses occasionally. It seemed that she was upset by what happened today, and she must be feeling very uncomfortable right now.

"Old man."

The two of them went over together and helped Old Man Mu into the house.

"Cough, cough, cough, cough." Old Man Mu coughed in a series of coughs, and Old Man Mu patted his back.

Mu Zining stood up: "Go and boil some water for grandpa." The kettle had been smashed, so she could only use the pot to boil water.

Old Man Mu said, "What banned book? They brought it here in the Ming Dynasty and secretly placed it in our house. They have the power in their hands, and it is easy to deal with us. They can easily find excuses to accuse us. Cough cough cough cough."

"Ah, this is it? Is there really no room for reason?" Mrs. Mu, who was temporarily sober, sighed: "We have done a lot of good deeds in the past. We donated money and food when we encountered natural disasters and the country fought, but in the end we still ended up like this."

"Some people want to harm us, but we can't defeat them. I don't know what the eldest and his wife are doing in the northwest. They deliberately separated us just to torture us. The second brother is being watched in the city and I'm afraid he's having a hard time. He can't protect himself, so he can't help us, alas."

Old Man Mu shed tears sadly. If he hadn't had his wife and grandchildren by his side, he would have voluntarily passed away long ago.

"Old man." Old Mrs. Mu cried.

Mu Zining brought some water: "Grandpa, have some water." She wiped away the old man Mu's tears: "Grandpa, you must take good care of your health. Grandma, please don't cry."

Old Man Mu and Old Lady Mu looked at their filial granddaughter and didn't want her to feel sad for them anymore, so they sniffed and stopped crying.

Mu Zining didn't know what to do now. Apart from stabilizing the emotions of the two good families, there was not even a barefoot doctor in the village as for her grandfather's illness. Even if there was one, she was afraid that the family might not come if she called them. She could only give old man Mu more water.

Old Man Mu rested for a while and didn't cough much.

Mu Dongdong was held by Old Lady Mu. At this moment, the guy was still curled up tightly, and his body kept shaking.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid."

While coaxing her grandson, she secretly made up her mind that if those people dared to cause trouble again, she would risk her life to fight them.

The whole family was trembling with fear, and they lay down on the kang late at night. They seemed to be asleep, but in fact they all kept their eyes open in the darkness, and no one could sleep.

Mu Dongdong finally fell asleep, but woke up because of a nightmare. They coaxed him together until dawn.

Both Mu Zining and Old Man Mu had to go to work, but as for Old Lady Mu, she acted crazy when she came, and when she went to work in the fields, she either destroyed the crops or the farm tools. The team leader simply didn't let her go to work.

Old Mrs. Mu felt very uncomfortable. She stood up for a while, then lay down again. Her lips turned pale and she looked weak.

"I can't seem to get up."

Mu Zining touched his forehead and said, "Grandpa, your forehead is so hot, as if you have a fever."

"Hey, why are you still sick at this time?" Old Man Mu slumped down on the kang in frustration.

Mu Zining said: "Grandpa, if you are sick, just rest at home and go to work in the fields. Let grandma take care of you at home."

"What if the captain sees it?"

"Captain, I will explain it to you."

"Well, there is no other way now, just do this."

Yu Jingjing cleaned up the house for her and asked the team leader for leave. She wanted to move in as soon as possible.

We have to clean up the house today and rebuild the kang.

Yesterday, she took the key away. When she came over after dinner today, Lu Yunxiao was already waiting at the gate.

"You always come so early, making the host feel embarrassed."

"If you feel embarrassed, just treat you to a few more meals in the future." Lu Yunxiao joked.

"Okay, I'm going to make you something delicious today."

Lu Yunxiao did so much work for her, so she must reward her family well.

"What are you going to do for me?" Lu Yunxiao asked.

"I won't tell you yet, but you can guess in your mind, but don't tell you the answer."

"OK."

The kang in the house had only collapsed, but the red bricks were still usable. No one dared to move the landlord's things, so they had been stored here. Lu Yunxiao sorted out the red bricks first.

Yu Jingjing was about to tidy up, and Lu Yunxiao asked her to clean up aside.

"This is for rough men. It's hard work and very dirty. You should stay away from it."

Yu Jingjing went to clean the house.

The team leader came to the foot of the mountain, where the Mu family worked, and found that only Mu Zining was there, so he asked her, "Why is there one less person today? Where is your grandfather?"

"Captain, 놖, 놖 wants to tell you something."

She estimated that the captain would not be able to take care of this matter, but she said that the captain would report it to those people, but that person would still come, and she didn't know who to ask for help.

"What's the matter? Tell me."

"Captain, yesterday a member of the Revolutionary Committee went to the cowshed. They searched your house and found a book, but your family didn't have any such thing. They said you were hiding contraband, so they beat you.

My grandfather has been ill recently. He was beaten yesterday and has a fever today, so he can't go to the fields. Captain, can you take Grandpa to the next brigade for medical treatment? ”

The captain frowned when he heard this, and then sighed.

"Don't worry, go over there and check on your grandfather's condition, and I'll give you an answer when I come back." As for the affairs of the Revolutionary Committee, he, a team leader, had no right to interfere.

"Okay, Captain. Thank you, Captain."

Before going to the cowshed, the team leader returned home, boiled two eggs, peeled them and put them in his pocket.

The old man is still running a fever, and they don't have any medicine to reduce the fever at home, so we'd better go to her place to talk about it.

To get to the cowshed, one had to pass by the landlord's old house. When Yu Jingjing was cleaning up the garbage outside, she saw him.

"Uncle Captain."
