When they saw clearly, they found Dad standing sternly beside a middle-aged woman who was already lying on the ground, with a kitchen knife next to her. This frightened both of them.
"I want to kill you all, kill you cold-blooded beasts," suddenly a woman’s voice ca closer.
The man on the ground didn’t get up, but his mouth was busy, "Lin Guozhi, I want to kill you to avenge my parents."
Liang Hongi and the children quickly stood beside Lin Guozhi, asking, "What’s going on?"
Lin Guozhi looked at the familiar face on the ground, over the years, although the face had aged slowly, he always rembered this person, "Soone from the Li Family."
Liang Hongi and the children frowned upon hearing this, Lin Yinghui clenched his fist and without hesitation went up to punch that man a few tis.
"Today, I’ll avenge my father first, just see if I don’t beat you to death."
"Ah Hui, that’s enough. This kind of person will be punished by the police," Lin Guozhi’s expression was calm, but Lin Wan noticed that Dad’s fist was tightly clenched at that mont.
Lin Wan quickly moved forward, silently grabbing Dad’s hand, Mom did the sa.
Lin Guozhi looked at his daughter and then his wife, sighed deeply, and patted their hands, reassuring them. The family had just reached the entrance of the courtyard. Nearby people saw soone holding a knife to chop others. They all gathered around.
Seeing that the person being chopped was still the eldest of the Lin Family, they were all surprised. This Lin Family’s eldest was now a divisional political commissar. After waking up, within a year, he directly parachuted into the position of a military political commissar.
Seeing that the person on the ground was a woman, of similar age, so started to wildly imagine, could it be that Lin Family’s eldest secretly had a lover?
Lin Guozhi kicked the knife out of their sight with his foot and asked, "Did you mistake for soone else? I don’t even know you. Bold enough to wield a knife on the street, aren’t you?"
"Lin Guozhi, you ruined my family, broke us apart... Unfilial child devoid of conscience... My parents were old and dragged to labor reform by you, they couldn’t survive this winter. My good job was destroyed by you all. Now my family can’t even afford enough food and is starving to death, it’s all you, you ruined us."
Lin Guozhi frowned upon hearing this.
"Unjust! Everyone co and see! Relying on skills, beating my husband like this, why doesn’t heaven take such a person away," the man’s wife cried as she helped the injured man up, wanting to gain everyone’s sympathy. By her side stood several children of varying ages, crying alongside her.
Among them were two roughly similar in age to their siblings.
"My parents took you in when you were a lost child, painstakingly raised you. Who would’ve thought you’d be so ungrateful? Back then, the family scrimped to send you to college, but didn’t live to see you repay, and you left to live freely without returning ho. Now you’ve found your biological parents. Forget not caring for your foster parents’ family, you even hard them. Saying we kidnapped you, do you have a conscience? How can you say that when your foster parents raised you for over a decade, you just left without a word, now coming back to harm our entire family."
"Comrade, you are the wicked one crying foul, clearly it was you who kidnapped our Guozhi. From childhood on, what life did he lead, should we spell it out?" "Who are you to talk? Didn’t we raise him? Let him speak for himself if he has a conscience." "Saying without conscience, who truly knows the heart... Making a six-seven-year-old child do laundry and cook, he was just a child, having him do all the housework alone, not to ntion the beatings and scolding, it was an old professor who couldn’t stand seeing your parents abuse my Guozhi, making him drop out to serve you. Secretly taught Guozhi so knowledge, then he worked hard to get into college. When he was in university, my man didn’t spend a penny of yours. anwhile, you stole his work, making him go to the countryside as a replacent for Li Family’s son to support building efforts. You calling us heartless, did you forget what your Li Family did back then?"
"Oh my, kidnapping soone’s child, that’s truly heartless," elderly people within the courtyard knew Lin Family’s eldest had gone missing. Those years, they saw Lin Family’s two running across the country for the child, only to hear no news.
Unexpectedly, it turned out they took him, not just took him, let alone how he was beaten and scolded, he also served that family day in and day out as a child.
A good noble son, happiness snatched away by them.
"About Guozhi going missing, the whole courtyard knew. After Guozhi woke up, his family realized it was those ruthless ones who took the child. When Lin Family’s second son took the police to arrest them, we heard too. Such people should be arrested and educated. Letting them roam free all these years."
"Yes, this family is just inhumane, was it easy for soone to go to college, stole his work, dodged governnt developnt and construction of national affairs, vile thinking, such people should have been re-educated long ago."
"Quickly call the police, arrest this vicious woman. Daring to wield a knife to kill at the military district courtyard entrance, if put into society, wouldn’t they cause even more harm?"
"Yes, yes, I’ll make the call."
"Thank you, Auntie," Lin Wan looked at the warm-hearted people, quickly thanked them. This increased the goodwill people had towards the Lin Family.
Their words were even more trusted by people around.
"You... Why arrest , I’m not wrong, he’s the one at fault, abusing power to ruin my career. Causes my parents to beco ill during reform, both die, our family raised him for over a decade, he’s ungrateful and wants to ruin his foster family to destruction."
"Abusing power? Family ruin? Costing you your job? Repeat that?" Lin Guozhi, although not involved, heard roughly so things from his second brother.
"Your parents back then deceived my family, tricked to take away, resulting in separation from my family most of my life. They started beating and scolding since age six in that hellish ho for ten years. At the age of five or six, clearly able to rember, yet because of constant beatings my brain was jumbled, unable to recall past events. If I hadn’t smartened up later, I’d have been beaten to death long ago. Now, sparing them from execution, just labor reform is already the greatest rcy for them. They couldn’t bear it, not anyone else’s fault." Lin Guozhi didn’t want to bring up the past, especially those years at the Li Family. Those were scars he had, for a long ti he desperately wished to escape that family.
No one knew how helpless he felt, a child a few years old, using cold water to wash clothes on a snowy, freezing day.
No one knew how, when he constantly drank water to quell hunger, he longed for soone to take him away.
So much helplessness and grievance, even his Nannan he never ntioned it to, let alone his parents.
Reflecting on the past, Lin Guozhi suddenly felt those two died too easily.
"Li Yongfang, back when I was eleven or twelve, you wanted to kick out, every day bringing your gang to beat at the door. Beating till one ti I fainted in a small alley overnight. If my luck wasn’t strong, I’d have been dead long ago. Now you’re telling about family ruin? Are you worthy?"
"Er Danzi. I was wrong back then, but now aren’t you fine? Just so petty squabble between brothers, why hold such a grudge? Can’t you talk it out, why imprison the parents? No matter their fault, they’re still your foster parents. You must be in high position now, found your biological parents, and want to shake off us poor relatives, huh. Unexpectedly, a distinguished military officer like you did such heartless, unrighteous acts. Everyone, don’t be deceived by him, when he was little, he had this appearance of good-heartedness, always seeking others’ sympathy."
Li Yongfang’s wife seeing her husband finish talking sat on the ground, slapping her thighs and crying, "Oh, how cursed our life is. Shaless!"
Among Li Yongfang’s family, a young man looking foolish rushed at Lin Guozhi after seeing Li Yongfang’s wife’s state, yelling, "Son of a bitch, kid, if you’ve got the guts, kill , kill already..." Saying so, he bumped against Lin Guozhi.
Lin Guozhi impatiently pushed him away.
Unexpectedly, he pretended to fall heavily to the ground, then he started rolling his eyes and foaming at the mouth.
For a mont, people gathered around were all surprised, stepping forward to check.
Only to see Lin Guozhi protect his wife and daughter with both hands, lift his foot, and stomp hard on the man’s hand.
