There is always someone saying: God will not let a sparrow starve to death.
But in fact, because of him, the Bi family was almost left with no way out and could not survive.
I even took out my parents’ coffin books just to find out where the other person was taken!
His mother was gone, and his father lay on the kang with no medicine to take. He tried to reason with himself, but he found that he simply couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart!
I'm scared of squatting, I can't ruin myself again.
Bi Tielin repeated this thought in his mind. He sat there quietly, and the only thing he could tell himself was that he must not lose anything again because of that woman.
Bi Tielin clenched his fists tightly, and slowly scratched his palms with his nails until they turned purple and blue, until blood marks appeared.
"Xizi! Come in!"
Bi Tielin tore a piece of paper from his notebook, scribbled a few words, and handed it to Wu Yuxi. There was something ambiguous in his eyes, and his tone was cynical, as he had never before:
"Find a few brothers, and starting today, follow that woman. Find out who else is in her family, her husband's workplace, and her situation at work. Find out everything you can."
…
Zhao Tianyu was slumped on the sofa in his home and didn't even hear the sound of Zhao Tianxue opening the door.
"Sister, what's wrong with you? What are you doing?" Zhao Tianxue waved her palm in front of her sister.
"Ah!" Zhao Tianyu was startled, then covered his face with his hands and breathed a sigh of relief.
Her face looked extremely bad, but she said nothing. Instead, she shook her head and walked into the kitchen tiredly.
From that day on, Zhao Tianyu was being followed without knowing it, and she even played counter-tracking and followed Bi Tielin.
For two consecutive days, I stood at the street corner and secretly observed Bi Tielin who was wearing a black coat and driving a Xiali car.
And Bi Tielin always acted as if he didn't know.
Zhao Tianyu knew that she had no time to hide, but she seemed unable to control herself. She herself didn't understand why she was secretly observing him.
It was not until she spent more time with him and saw more that she understood why.

Bi Tiegang didn't like to hear what Bi Yue said. It was one thing for him to deny it in front of his children, but he still took it to heart.
Bi Tiegang squatted beside the big tree in the backyard of the People's Hospital, thinking about his worries.
His eyes were blurred by the smoke, and he half-closed his eyes to look into the distance. There was still black mud in his slightly long nails. He held a cigarette in his hand, and there were three cigarette butts at his feet.
He felt quite powerless.
The eldest brother struggled for several years and became so poor that he had to rely on his two children to improve his situation.
After his brother came out, he was still thinking that no matter what anyone said, it would be useless. Even if Bi Yue and Bi Cheng resented him as their father, he would still take out all his savings and do his best to help Bi Tielin.
It turned out that his younger brother didn't use a penny of his money, and only left a note. In less than half a year, not only his family, but even his sister Bi Jinzhi had to borrow money from him.
It seemed as if in the blink of an eye, life had changed dramatically for the better.
Bi Tiegang took two puffs of his cigarette in succession, and when he looked up at the sky, his forehead wrinkles deepened. With his half-white hair on top, he sighed.
As an older brother, he has now become the one who can interfere and take charge. It seems that the only thing left for him is to ask his younger brother to get married. In the end, he ended up making things worse.
Bi Tiegang stood up, his depressed back blending into the white snow in the backyard of the hospital.
…
Bi Cheng in the ward whispered to Bi Yue who was looking at his back:
"Sister, what's the big deal? Don't be so upset. They are our parents, we are family. Why would you say too much or too little? You have such good intentions, but you don't know how to say it properly."
Bi Yue snorted, wrinkled her nose, turned around and glared at Bi Cheng.
"If I don't explain it to you nicely, you won't take it seriously. If I explain it to you nicely, will you believe me? My father is so rude, it's hard to say whether he will listen to me or not.
Our mother won't listen to me.
Besides, I didn't say anything loud. He was probably afraid that I might have said something right, and that he would be upset and take it out on me."
No matter how much Bi Yue talked about the disadvantages, Bi Cheng didn't believe it from the bottom of his heart, so he didn't take it seriously. He also thought his sister was too nosy and muttered softly:
"Sister, are you overthinking it? Aunt Cui Liu looks so honest, and our uncle's words are very clear.
If anyone pretends to be ignorant while knowing the truth, then it is a problem of human character.
I'm not a shameless person. What you said seems to imply that if someone sees our uncle, they will sneak up on him. He's not a good person!
There aren't any people like that in our village. Besides, they're just distant relatives. Dad's attitude is that he thinks you're overthinking things. He's really angry."
…
Chu Yifeng was carefully trying to pry open the lid of the aluminum lunch box, but found that the lid was a little loose and could not be closed. He had just closed the lunch box when he turned around and was suddenly startled.
Chu Yifeng was frightened and surprised.
You know what he does? A soldier doesn't know when someone is standing next to him. It's so rare.
Especially him, he listens to all directions and observes all directions. He is not bragging, this description of him is absolutely true.
Chu Yifeng raised his eyebrows and looked Bi Sheng up and down scrutinizingly:
"Alright, kid. You're playing counter-detection on me, making no noise while walking down the hallway? What's the point of not going back to sleep?"
Bi Sheng pursed his thin, pink lips. When he spoke, he looked up and asked:
"Brother, are you really a soldier? A general?"
Chu Yifeng nodded, his face full of affirmation, and replied:
"Yes. I, your brother-in-law, will be a general in a few years. So, Goudan, isn't it very prestigious to be a general's brother-in-law?"
