Chapter 10: Determination
When the sun set and the sky was late, Wu Lao Er staggered home, sat down in the hall with a big grin, patted the table with his legs crossed and looked ahead, and said in a loud voice:
"Hurry up and cook for Lao Tzu!"
He said it as if he were speaking into the air.
After a while, I saw Chen Cui, the woman who had been whipped by herself last night, come out of the kitchen with the meal that had already been prepared.
Wu Lao Er glanced at it, and saw that she walked freely like a nobody, and couldn't help but think of the warning of the Xiao family man last night, and immediately sobered up a lot with alcohol......
He still remembered the terrible feeling of last night, and he didn't dare to make too many mistakes, so he had to heavily: "Hmph!" and ate by himself.
Chen Cui saw that this Wu Lao Er had divided a lot, and his worried heart relaxed.
In fact, she is still very worried, and she knows exactly what her husband's personality is.
Xiao Dalang scolded him in front of so many people last night, he must have been very angry in his heart, but it was just that he hadn't had a seizure at that time, but it didn't mean that he would just forget it......
So seeing that his body was fine, he hurriedly got up and asked his son to hide when he was about to come back, so that he could serve him food.
At this moment, seeing that he was eating quietly and not going crazy, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, thinking that Xiao Dalang really had some ability, otherwise how could such a wicked person listen to him?
I heard my son say that Xiao Dalang is going to see him tomorrow, so he should want to teach his son some self-defense skills, right?
It's okay to save himself from protecting himself when he is not by his side, thinking of this, she can't help but frown.
That Wu Lao Er glanced at the woman inadvertently, and couldn't help frowning when he saw her eyebrows open and smile, and then he thought of something, and the corners of his mouth raised evilly and smiled:
"I'll wash Lao Tzu's feet later!"
Chen Cui was stunned for a moment, knowing that he must have forgotten in front of this person just now, and knew that he had to suffer some hardships, and a whip was inevitable, so he couldn't help but sigh in his heart......
In fact, Chen Cui was too worried, this Wu Lao Er just wanted her to satisfy her selfish desires.
Although this Wu Lao Er is more vicious, he is not stupid.
In his opinion, this Chen Cui's growth is not too bad, and he is still quite satisfied with being able to work and support himself.
Usually beat and scold and scold out of anger, if you really beat her to death, wouldn't you lose a lot?
When he had eaten his fill, he shaved his teeth, swaggered into the back room, and left a sentence when he was finished:
"Hurry up for Lao Tzu!"
............
Chen Cui silently cleaned up the table, hurriedly brought the rest of the meal into the kitchen, and prepared to have dinner with her son who was staying there.
Wu Heng saw his mother come in, he was also a little relieved, he was eavesdropping on the wall just now, and found that the person was not angry, and his mother was not wronged, so she put down her heart.
So he obediently took over his mother's work and smiled sweetly.
"Heng'er, you can go and rest after eating later! Since Aunt Lu helped you heal your illness, you should be fine, you can sleep in the bedroom, and you don't have to go to the hut anymore!"
Chen Cui said and rubbed her son's cheeks with some sadness......
Since the son had nightmares and began to cry in the middle of the night, he was driven to the small dark house by the man, and he was not allowed to sleep here at night except for working during the day, because it affected the man's sleep.
Although she tried to stay with her son several times, she was driven back by the man with a leather whip each time, and she was afraid that the man would be angry with her son again, so she had to bear to let her son stay there alone......
"Mother, Heng'er is okay when she gets better, don't you think about those unhappy things anymore, okay?" Wu Heng obediently rubbed his cheek against his mother's warm palm
"Okay, my mother doesn't want to think about it" Chen Cui was finally relieved......
......
After eating, Wu Heng lay on the bed, staring at his eyes and unable to fall asleep for a long time, thinking about his heart:
Alas, how can I do this? My mother usually always works alone to support the family, and she is too young to help with many things, but this is not enough, it is hard to work, but she has to be severely beaten by that person, and sometimes she even has to suffer for herself.
Every time he thought of this, Wu Heng's heart would always feel like a knife was desperately cutting himself, he was so painful! But he couldn't do anything......
His humble protest was exchanged for even more painful torture from his mother! His heart was dripping blood and roaring!
No! It can't be like this!
He clenched his little fists, his nails digging deep into his flesh......
I must be strong! I must not let my mother be hurt for me again! I will not allow my mother to be hurt again! The young man gritted his teeth, and his gaze became extremely determined......
But what should I do? I was too young to save my mother when the man was violent! Even the adults in the village didn't pay any attention to him......
No, it seems that someone can finally cure him, because his abominable father has not been so excessive since last night......
If he had come back drunk as usual, he would have had to scold him or whip him up, but just now he secretly observed and found that he was much more honest, and he didn't do anything other than to be served......
Wu Heng probably knew what happened last night, Aunt Lu's husband, who is often referred to as Xiao Dalang in the village, was rescued by him last night when he stopped the man from continuing to commit murder.
With his own understanding of that man, ordinary people can't deter him, unless it's very, very powerful enough to make him feel scared! Yes, it must be like this!
Don't look at Wu Heng is only eight years old, but he lives in such an environment and has more unfortunate experiences and experiences than ordinary children.
Although this experience is too unfortunate for a child, it also makes his mind far more mature than the average person.
Don't look at his usual wooden and restrained, but that's because he rarely has contact with people and is too introverted, but it doesn't mean that he is stupid!
From what happened last night to now, he understood it with a little thought in his head:
"Hmm, it seems that Uncle Xiao didn't do anything last night, and he just used words to obey that person, this is really amazing!"
Wu Heng seemed to remember something again, his little face grinned, but he suddenly took a breath again, and found that he had scratched his hand, grinning in pain, frowning slightly, and was immediately replaced by an excited mood......
That Uncle Xiao is so powerful, I must learn some skills from him, the kind of ability that can scare the other party without making a move.
But on what grounds should I go to him?
By the way, didn't Aunt Lu say today that Uncle Xiao wanted to see me?
Thinking of this, Wu Heng couldn't help but finally relax, patted his little chest, and suddenly felt a hard little thing in his arms, and then remembered that it was the medicine that Aunt Lu gave him today.
He reached out and took out the small porcelain vase from his bosom, and after carefully observing it by the moonlight for a while, he found that the small porcelain vase was very delicate.
As soon as the cork is uncorked, there is a refreshing aroma that smells very pleasant.
He shook the porcelain bottle, and immediately rolled out a small red pill from the bottle, looked at it, and swallowed it.
After a while, Wu Heng immediately felt comfortable, as if a warm current slowly surged from his limbs to his brain.
He made a comfortable ** sound, his eyelids were a little heavy, and then he remembered that he was a little sleepy after a tired day.
Hurriedly put away the small porcelain vase, and fell asleep with a little haha.
In his dream, he seemed to dream of the woman who looked like a mother and smiled at him......
Wu Heng grinned, his eyes narrowed into crescent moons, his face was full of happiness, and he murmured sweetly: "Mother, ......"
In this quiet bedroom, a faint moonlight shone on his body.
If anyone takes a closer look here, they will be surprised to find that the little hand he had just scratched is slowly healing at the moment, leaving only a few tiny scars......
What's even more incredible is that the blood stains oozing from his hands are slowly re-burrowing into his skin......
In the small open window, there was a round moon, and at this moment the clear light seemed to be smiling......
