Chapter 194: Inextricably Linked (95)
There are two paths in front of Zong Xianggui: either wait for Zhu Baoguo to come back, and then kill him in his Xingshi questioning, or be swept out of the house by him; Or run away now.
But thinking that after killing his ex-wife's whole family, after a long period of hiding in Tibet, pigs and dogs were not as good as pigs and dogs, Zong Xianggui was a little worried. So, he chose a safer way: running away.
Since you are running away, you must bring all your personal belongings.
There is no doubt that in Zong Xianggui's eyes, Hu Yuemei is also one of his personal belongings.
Back then, he declared that he had sacrosanct and inviolable permanent ownership of his ex-wife by killing his ex-wife, and now, he wants to elope to declare that he also has sacrosanct and inviolable permanent ownership of Zhu Baoguo's wife Hu Yuemei.
So, Zong Xianggui didn't think about it, and asked Hu Yuemei to quickly pack up her things and run away with her, and her words and demeanor completely regarded this as a matter of course.
Hu Yuemei, who often suffers from domestic violence, has long been unable to bear Zhu Baoguo's bad illness, and has fantasized more than once about leaving her husband to live again. Moreover, the matter of breaking shoes with Zong Xianggui has been discovered by the neighbors, even if he stays shamelessly, most of them will not be able to escape being beaten half to death by her husband.
After hesitating for a moment, Hu Yuemei quickly packed up her things and ran away with Zong Xianggui.
She originally wanted to take her 10-year-old son Zhu Dawei away, but in this way, Zhu Baoguo would definitely chase after her, and if she ran away with Zong Xianggui, she would inevitably have to eat and sleep in the open, and taking Zhu Dawei with him would only make him suffer, so it was better to leave him at home to eat and drink, and take care of his daughter. So, Hu Yuemei gave up this idea.
At this time, more than three years have passed since Zu Baoshan killed his ex-wife's family, and the pursuit of Zu Baoshan is completely less dense than it was at that time, which provides conditions for Zu Baoshan to flee again.
originally thought that she had jumped out of the fire pit and what was waiting for her in front of her would be a happy world of two, but slowly Hu Yuemei realized that what was standing in front of her was actually a volcano, but she had already jumped into a crater full of magma, and there was no turning back.
At first, the two traveled to many places, had no fixed residence, and their living conditions were very poor. The sky is the quilt, the ground is the bed, the wind and food are sleeping, and it is the norm to eat the last meal but not the next meal.
In the end, the two went through a lot of hardships to live somewhere along the coast.
Because they had no money, Zong Xianggui and Hu Yuemei slept under the bridge, or sneaked into the construction site and slept in the unfinished building.
In order to make ends meet, Hu Yuemei went to the station to shine people's shoes, and Zong Xianggui went to work as a small worker, doing a day's work and earning a day's wages.
This kind of difficult time has lasted for several years.
Their stories warn us that after elopement, we can live a happy life without shame or anxiety, unless we carry a large amount of money. In all the stories of elopements of talented and beautiful women, before departure, there is often a very important detail: some gold and silver are packed.
What's more, these two people are not talented and beautiful, and the most important thing is that there is also a murderer and fugitive among them, but Hu Yuemei has never known this.
It wasn't until the end of the 90s that the two saved some money, rented a single room, and declared that they were husband and wife, Zong Xianggui bought a tricycle and rode around picking up bricks to sell, Hu Yuemei's shoeshine business was getting better and better, and their lives improved.
Full of warmth and desire. After the pressure of life was reduced, the various vices that had been suppressed in Zong Xianggui's heart for a long time began to be slowly exposed.
After so many years, the pursuit of Zu Baoshan seems to have become uncaring, which makes him almost forget his identity as a murderer and fugitive, and even really regards himself as a fictitious "Zong Xianggui", so he slowly ceased to be cautious.
The life of eating, drinking, and living made Zong Xianggui no longer need to spend his thoughts and energy on these trivial things, but instead gave him the idea and behavior of pursuing higher spiritual enjoyment.
What is Spiritual Enjoyment? Of course, it is to make yourself physically and mentally happy, and the best way to be physically and mentally happy is to let go of yourself and release the desires in your heart.
Therefore, you have to eat meat in large pieces and drink wine in large bowls, which is the standard for a happy life; After a full meal, mahjong, poker
Cards are essential. The amount he earns in a day is not much to spend, but it doesn't matter, he can ask Hu Yuemei for money. Hu Yuemei's people are all his, and the money he earns is naturally his.
What makes Hu Yuemei mad the most is that Zong Xianggui's liking for domestic violence has gradually been exposed. At the beginning, Zong Xianggui caused his ex-wife to divorce him because of this problem. Now, he healed his scars and forgot the pain, began to release his desires, and continued to satisfy his violent penchant for beating women on Hu Yuemei.
The weak woman is like a helpless chick under his fist, with a trembling body, frightened eyes, and panicked screams, and this combination of movement and stillness always has a special beauty, which always fills him with pleasure and a sense of accomplishment to conquer everything. When it comes to such moments, he always feels like a successful person, not a loser.
For Hu Yuemei, it was because she couldn't bear Zhu Baoguo's domestic violence that she followed this man away, but the good days had not yet begun, in exchange for more than enough domestic violence and abuse, which made her extremely desperate and had nowhere to escape.
At this point, where does she still have the face to go back to Zhu Baoguo?
She also thought about escaping somewhere else, but Zong Xianggui grasped her life and used it as a threat: "If you dare to run, Lao Tzu will go to Zhubao Country and kill both of your children." Lao Tzu has one life, there is nothing that can't be done, if you don't believe it, you can try."
The timid and cowardly Hu Yuemei dared to take the lives of a pair of children to "give it a try".
Therefore, the idea of running away can only spin around in the mind and then quickly extinguish.
This kind of dark life lasted for 10 years, until 2009, when Hu Yuemei met a fellow villager in the same village as Zhu Baoguo when she was shining shoes, and some news from the villager made her sad and happy, and even made her think of a way that seemed to be able to get rid of the tragic fate in front of her.
The villager told Hu Yuemei that since she ran away from home, the lives of her two children have become a mess. This is completely contrary to her original intention of not taking the children away in the first place, thinking that the children would be able to avoid running around and live a better life by staying at home.
After Hu Yuemei ran away, her husband Zhu Baoguo almost collapsed, and he traveled everywhere to find his wife, and he couldn't take care of his children at all.
Zhu Baoguo has a bad problem, but he is not without feelings for Hu Yuemei, he just didn't find the right way to get along with his wife and love each other, let alone understand how to behave as a husband and father. In other words, he is most likely just a "giant baby".
The father was not at home, and the two children around the age of ten had to be self-reliant and learned to cook by themselves.
Occasionally, a kind-hearted neighbor would see the children and call them to their home for dinner.
When it's cold, the siblings can only wear the old clothes given by the neighbors to survive the cold winter, and during the winter and summer vacations, they will also go out to find their mother.
A few years have passed, and Hu Yuemei has never been heard from. The conditions at home are already very ordinary, and finding someone not only misses work, but also costs money. Slowly, Zhu Baoguo couldn't afford such a financial burden, the sister and brother dropped out of school before finishing junior high school, and the search for Hu Yuemei was forced to stop, and the family of three had to return to the life in front of them.
Among the two sisters and brothers, the elder sister has been married a long time ago, and the younger brother Zhu Dawei went out to work with adults in his early years, and he also got married last year, and now the young couple are working.
The sad thing is that when I ran away from home, my husband and two children would suffer so much.
The good news is that the two children have become families, and her son Zhu Dawei is still in the same city as her.
Thinking that her son was by her side, Hu Yuemei suddenly felt a lot more fulfilled in her heart, and even felt that Zong Xianggui, a man, did not seem to be so terrible for a moment. Parents are the pillars of their children, and children are not the pillars of their parents.
So, Hu Yuemei decided to meet her son Zhu Dawei, and even wanted to live with him. This is not only a mother's nature for her son, but also her attempt to get rid of the domestic violence by Zong Xianggui: In front of my son, you don't dare to beat me again, right?
At this time, Hu Yuemei's first thought was not to rely on her son to leave Zong Xianggui, but to try to use her son as a "backer" to scare Zong Xianggui's violent behavior. Perennial suffers from home
violence, it seems that she has become a "habitual masochist", that is: I can't stand you, but I can't do without you.
Eventually, through the phone number left by her fellow villagers, Hu Yuemei contacted the two children and invited them to the "home" formed by her and Zong Xianggui to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival.
The siblings wept with joy. They all know the between their parents, between their mother and Zong Xianggui, but compared to this reunion of close relatives who have been missing for more than ten years, those things are nothing.
So, the two sisters and brothers hid from their father Zhu Baoguo, took their respective small families, and happily came to Hu Yuemei's side and spent a very successful Dragon Boat Festival with her.
After the holiday, my sister's family returned to their hometown.
Hu Yuemei saw that her daughter-in-law had just finished confinement, so she proposed to live with her son and daughter-in-law and help them take care of the children. Zhu Dawei and his wife couldn't ask for it, especially Zhu Dawei, his mother's proposal could completely fill the missing part of his heart.
Zong Xianggui glanced at Zhu Dawei's daughter-in-law, and also fully supported Hu Yuemei's proposal.
So, Zhu Dawei simply rented another house in the community rented by Zong Xianggui and Hu Yuemei, moved in, and changed the place where he worked to a nearby place.
Zong Xianggui probably felt that he should be regarded as Zhu Dawei's stepfather, so he always put on an elder posture in front of Zhu Dawei, and then exported various education and theories to him.
