Chapter 633: A Tragic Encounter
My eyes widened in astonishment, and beneath Wu Shuang's gentle and humble appearance was a scarred body.
The scars on his body were not ordinary scratches, but traces of abuse.
"This scar was burned with hot oil. I was only six years old at the time, and he had no food to eat, so I asked me to fry peanuts for him. Just because I poured too much oil, he scolded me for being a moth lying on him and sucking blood! Remove the oil from the hot pan and pour it raw on my arm. ”
Just listening to what Wu Shuang said, a picture had already flashed in my mind, and my heart couldn't help but tremble.
What a painful torture it was for a six-year-old child, who was about the same age as Xixi, when his skin was very delicate, and hot oil was poured raw on his hands!
And the "he" in Wu Shuang's mouth is naturally the old bachelor who likes domestic violence!
I can't imagine.
Even if the old bachelor mixes again, he is also Wu Shuang's biological father, how can he bear to be so cruel to his children?
Wu Shuang calmly unbuttoned his shirt, exposed his back and chest, pointed to the other scars on his body, and told me about them one by one.
"And here, this is what he smoked with wattles after drinking too much."
The scar was shallow, but it covered his arms and entire upper body.
It's not an ordinary wooden stick, but a thorny thorn, which is drawn on the body, it is simply a punishment.
This dense scar was not caused in a day.
My voice trembled: "He...... How often does he beat you? ”
"Yes." Wu Shuang sneered sarcastically, "When Wu Meixin escaped, he took all the money from the family. He had no money, so he borrowed it everywhere, gambled, drank when he lost the gamble, poured all his resentment on me when he drank too much, whipped me with wattles, beat me with a stick, and whatever he could hold in his hand could become a murder weapon! ”
"And here, this is when he was angry and pushed me down, my back was directly inserted by a nail on the wooden board, and then it became infected and inflamed, and I was glad that I was finally going to die, but God let me live again."
Wu Shuang's words made my heart overflow with sympathy. How desperate is it that a child would want to die?
But the source of all this evil should be the old bachelor of domestic violence.
Before I could ask deeply, I heard Wu Shuang snort coldly.
"You must think I'm miserable because of his domestic violence, no wonder Wu Meixin, right? But you know what? Wu Meixin obviously had the opportunity to take me away with him. ”
Although Wu Shuang's tone was calm, he still couldn't hide the disappointment in his eyes.
"She was able to escape because she gave birth to me, and she pretended to tell that person that she would live a good life with him, so that person let down her guard against her. And she took the opportunity to put sleeping pills in the dish. ”
Wu Shuang raised his eyes to look at me and asked me rhetorically: "If it were you, would you choose to leave with your child when that person has been dizzy and the person is unconscious?" ”
Of course I would.
But in the face of Wu Shuang's tragic experience, I couldn't bear to say the answer.
However, Wu Shuang had already guessed my answer in his heart.
He lowered his eyes and smiled bitterly, "You definitely will, because it's a mother's instinct." But Wu Meixin didn't, she took the money, but she didn't want to take me away. In her heart, I'm just a burden to her! ”
At this moment, I can understand the hatred in Wu Shuang's heart.
The hatred of being abandoned by a loved one.
The kind of hatred that everyone hates.
But it is clear that he is innocent, and if he can choose, he will not choose to be born.
"Probably...... She's scared of being abused. "I didn't know what to say to comfort Wu Shuang for a while, and I didn't want him to think that I was sympathetic.
Wu Shuang added to himself: "If she was scared at that time and didn't take me away, then I can forgive her." But later, after she was picked up by the Wu family, in order to take revenge on that person, she deliberately went back to the mountains once, and I also saw her with my own eyes. But she was always indifferent to me, watching the man punch and kick me coldly, but she was indifferent, and she didn't mention that she wanted to take me away! ”
In Wu Meixin's heart, Wu Shuang should be regarded as the shame brought about by those unbearable encounters.
She was indifferent to Wu Shuang, entirely because seeing Wu Shuang reminded her of those days of torture.
It's just that Wu Shuang was still a child at that time, but if Wu Meixin pulled him, he could let him escape from the sea of suffering, but Wu Meixin didn't.
Wu Shuang admitted frankly that since then, the seed of hatred has been planted in his heart.
"Later, the man died of an overdose, and I was finally free. Wu Meixin was very merciful and asked me to return to her, but she treated me like a subordinate, refused to admit my identity, and only said that I was her housekeeper. ”
After so many years, Wu Meixin is still reluctant to admit him, even if she has left him by her side.
Wu Shuang seemed to be saying these words calmly, but the tragic encounters he had experienced had left a great shadow in his heart.
He has never been loved, and the hatred in his heart will be even stronger.
At this moment, I suddenly sympathized with Wu Shuang, and I also regretted my yin and yang weirdness towards him.
I pursed my lips and apologized to him: "I'm sorry, I didn't know that your childhood was like this, I just think that you and Wu Meixin are blood relatives, so I will be suspicious of you." ”
I sincerely apologized, in exchange for which Wu Shuang smiled lightly, "It's good that you don't doubt me now." ”
When he looked at me, there was a little more envy in his eyes.
"In fact, when I saw Xixi being abused in a villa, I felt like I saw myself as a child. The difference is that you, as a mother, have to come to save him regardless of your own safety. ”
"So when you begged me to help you take Xixi away, I was in a trance for a moment, and I was thinking, if Wu Meixin could have taken me out of that place like you, perhaps, she and I would not have come to this point. It's a pity that Wu Meixin won't. ”
Wu Meixin's selfishness made her only have herself in her heart.
So even if she starts over, Wu Meixin will not leave with Wu Shuang.
With such a ruthless mother, I can empathize with Wu Shuang's state of mind.
Our quarrels and suspicions also gradually subsided in the memories of this past.
I took a deep breath, although I was still thinking about Su Yu, but as Wu Shuang said, I couldn't change anything, on the contrary, my existence would implicate more people around me.
I compromised, "I did have some impulsiveness just now, but the person who was arrested was my brother, and I really couldn't calm down for a while." ”
"I understand. But if you really want to protect the people around you, then you should deal with Wu Meixin first, otherwise all the people around you who you care about will become victims in the confrontation between you and Wu Meixin. ”
