Chapter 607 Is this right, child? (2)
Xiong Bufan did not kill the ox; he simply threw the children onto the oxcart and slowly drove it away.
If I went to the police station, I might be able to get some food; but lying here, I'll just have to stay here.
The old ox knew it had been lucky to escape with its life, so it dared not go crazy or disobey orders, and could only quietly keep moving forward.
Kongkong: "Bufan, do you want to receive the memories now?"
"No, let's talk about it after I've settled down."
"I think it's better to receive the memories now. This way, we can understand the historical context and the original owner's experiences, which will make it easier to complete the mission. What do you think?"
Xiong Bufan was persuaded, "I think what you said makes sense, I'll accept it."
Nine out of ten tasks require Xiong Bufan to complete end in tragedy, and the tenth one is particularly unlucky; this one is no exception.
The original owner's name was Yu Aizhen. She was a little girl from the countryside. Before she was five years old, all her days were happy. She had a loving mother, a nagging but doting grandmother, and a father who, although often away from home, frequently sent food coupons, meat coupons, cloth coupons, money, and chocolates home. She was the happiest child in the village.
But from a certain day on, everything changed.
Grandma Chen Guihua would glare at her whenever she saw her, and several times she tried to drown her while washing clothes. When she went up the mountain to collect firewood, she deliberately didn't bring her back.
Yu Aizhen didn't understand why her beloved grandmother had become like this, but every time she went out, she would hold tightly to Chen Guihua's clothes, calling out, "Grandma."
Chen Guihua sighed deeply, her eyes filled with reluctance and reproach.
The mother, Zhang Xiuhuan, was much more straightforward than Chen Guihua. She would often grumble when Yu Aizhen wasn't looking, asking why Yu Aizhen wasn't a boy and why she was taking up a child's spot.
The original owner, at a very young age, experienced for the first time what it meant to be sexist.
Such days did not last two years. Dad Yu Jiangtao drove back in a Jeep, the first time anyone in the village had ever seen a car like that.
He came back, and brought with him a pregnant woman named Wang Wanjun, saying that she was Yu Aizhen's new mother, Wang Wanjun.
Zhang Xiuhuan had been busy taking care of the family for six or seven years, only to find that her husband had cheated on her with a child.
Anyone would find this unbearable. Zhang Xiuhuan lunged at Wang Wanjun, brandishing her claws, yelling, "I'll beat you to death, you vixen, you shameless bastard..."
Chen Guifang wasn't idle either; she stood to the side and cursed, still preferring her daughter-in-law Zhang Xiuhuan, with whom she had lived for five or six years.
The original owner had never seen such a scene before, and could only timidly hide behind the door, watching the farce unfold before her eyes.
Yu Jiangtao felt a headache coming on at the sight before him, but he couldn't let his wife suffer. He suddenly pulled Zhang Xiuhuan away, saying, "You ignorant country bumpkin, don't lay a hand on me."
"She seduced my husband, and I can't even lay a hand on her? What kind of twisted logic is that?!"
Wang Wanjun was not one to be trifled with either. She walked over and slapped Zhang Xiuhuan across the face, saying, "We've got our marriage certificate. You shameless woman, why are you still bothering Atao?"
It turns out that Yu Jiangtao and Wang Wanjun concealed the fact that he had already married and had a daughter in his hometown. He and Wang Wanjun had always said that Zhang Xiuhuan was his adopted sister, and that he had gotten pregnant out of wedlock and was raising the child at home.
Wang Wanjun looked down on this kind of woman from the bottom of her heart, but at first she still gave in to her because of her status.
The original owner hid behind the door and saw her mother being beaten. She rushed out like a cannonball, shouting, "You're not allowed to hurt my mother!"
No one expected a seven-year-old child to suddenly go crazy. Wang Wanjun was knocked off balance and stumbled, but was quickly caught by Yu Jiangtao.
After being shocked, Wang Wanjun pointed at Yu Aizhen and cursed, "You beast, you bastard, you want to kill my child!"
The original owner knew the insults weren't kind, so she bumped into them again, but this time Yu Jiangtao kicked her away. Then he accused Zhang Xiuhuan and Chen Guihua, "How did you raise your child? So vicious at such a young age. Do you know that Wanjun is carrying a boy?"
Yu Aizhen was kicked three meters away, her head hitting the steps and bleeding. Blood also appeared at the corner of her mouth. Her life was uncertain for a moment.
Regardless of whether Yu Aizhen was a boy or not, she was Zhang Xiuhuan's daughter.
Zhang Xiuhuan no longer cared about hitting Wang Wanjun; she picked up the original owner and ran to the village clinic, begging them to save her child.
Chen Guilan did care about the child after all. She kept scolding Yu Jiangtao, saying he was heartless and unfilial, but she never mentioned that Yu Aizhen was Yu Jiangtao's child.
Wang Wanjun didn't expect to encounter so many troubles so soon after arriving. She felt that if she stayed any longer, she would eventually turn around and leave in anger.
Yu Jiangtao hurried after her, turning back to scold Chen Guihua, "Mom, you're going to ruin me."
After hesitating for a long time, Chen Guihua still didn't chase after it. She could only watch as the car kicked up dust and drove away.
The original owner was sent to a clinic, where the old doctor said he could only try a few acupuncture needles and prescribe some herbal medicine. Whether the original owner could survive depended on his own abilities.
The original owner remained unconscious for two days before waking up, but it seemed that he had damaged his brain, his eyes became dull, and he also had occasional stomach aches.
Zhang Xiuhuan is Yu Aizhen's biological mother, but she gets tired of taking care of her for a long time. Besides, there is so much farm work to do at home and tasks to complete for the brigade, so she can't take care of Yu Aizhen at all.
So once Aizhen was able to run around, Zhang Xiuhuan rarely cared about the original owner anymore.
Chen Guihua regretted kicking Yu Jiangtao out. It's normal for men to have multiple wives and concubines. Yu Jiangtao's grandfather even had three concubines. Perhaps she shouldn't have been so harsh on her own child.
Yu Aizhen lived another three years in a daze. During this time, Yu Jiangtao did not send a single grain coupon or oil coupon home, nor did he send a single penny. After Chen Guihua wrote and called again and again, Yu Jiangtao finally returned.
I brought a three-year-old boy with me this time. He's chubby-cheeked and incredibly cute.
Chen Guihua genuinely liked this child, especially after comparing him to the silly original owner of the body.
Wang Wanjun also returned, and even though she was unwilling, she forced Yu Yaozu to call her "Grandma."
Chen Guihua was even happier and treated them with great hospitality.
There's no such thing as a grudge that lasts overnight between a mother and son; if there is, it must be because someone else stirred things up.
Some were happy, some were sad. The original owner was locked in an empty pigsty, listening to their lively voices, and rolling around in the mud.
Grandma said she would let her pretend to be a pig, and if she did it well, she would get a treat.
Looking at her daughter in the pigsty, and then at Yu Yaozu, who was cleaned up in the distance, Zhang Xiuhuan felt that this life was unbearable and there was no comparison between them.
She has now heard that in the new era, marriage requires not only a marriage certificate but also a marriage license; otherwise, one is considered an engaged couple.
Her mother-in-law's words were still echoing in her mind. Zhang Xiuhuan hesitated for a long time but still didn't go forward. Instead of bringing the original owner out, she went to cut pig feed.
Yu Jiangtao's reason for returning this time was simple: he wanted to have Yu Aizhen's household registration removed because she had taken up a child's place. Family planning is being strictly enforced now, especially for those of them who work for the government, so they had to set an example.
If Yu Aizhen is registered under his name, he cannot have a second child with Wang Wanjun, and Yu Yaozu's schooling will also be affected.
