Chapter 18: Admitting Mistakes
Just when I was provoking Lu Wenzhao in every way, I didn't hear who said it clearly: "There is no way, it can only be like this." Before I could react, I felt that someone had kicked me in the socket of my leg, and my leg fell to the ground with a weak leg. Just as I was about to stand up and turn back to look, I saw a rope wrapped around my neck, and then turned outward several hands pressed against me, pressing me to the ground, and after a few ropes, I was tied up strongly.
I flipped my body over with my feet, and I saw Chen Dake and Wang Gozhao looking at me apologetically. This hit me hard, I didn't expect these two brothers, who were usually close to me, to do such a cruel blow to me. I shouted to the two of them like crazy: "You two ungrateful bastards, you dare not go with me to take revenge, why do you tie me with a rope, and let me loose, if you let me break free, you just wait to eat your fists." β
Lu Wenzhao looked at me with his head down, walked in front of the two of them, and turned his back to me, my anger was getting bigger and bigger, and he continued to roar at them: "Chen Dake, Wang Gozhao, you two heard, hurry up and let go of me......" No matter how I shouted, the three of them didn't even look at me anymore.
Lu Wenzhao said to the two of them: "You two are too slow, if you do it later, I will have to fight him." Tell me, how will it end up when that time comes?"
Chen Dake was full of apologies and mixed with these grievances, and replied: "You can't blame us, this is our eldest brother, if we want to use a knife behind our eldest brother's back, can't we have some time to prepare?" You know how much courage it took us to break through this psychological barrier, and I'm embarrassed to say that we didn't come so late, if you come early, it would be impossible for Brother Chuan to make a move with Wei Xun. β
Lu Wenzhao waved his hand, grinned and said: "Okay, let's stop complaining to each other, hurry up and send him back, now at this time, Zhou Duwei should have already arrived at their house, you take him to go home directly without going back to the Punishment Division, this is also what Zhou Duwei ordered." I still have some small things to deal with, and after everything is done, I will go over, if Zhou Duwei asks, you can just say so, and he will know everything. β
After Lu Wenzhao left, the two of them also carried me back to my home. Along the way, I cried and fussed about the two of them, and the passers-by on the road thought that I was the outlaw caught by the two of them. Seeing that crying was useless, I scolded the two of them, what was ugly and scolding, and the two of them were only full of apologies, but more often it was helplessness. Even if I crouched on the ground and didn't move half a step, they would force me up and continue walking.
My mouth was dry and my voice was hoarse, but they still didn't say a word, and I had to cry silently. When I came downstairs to my house, I saw people in black suits, all of whom wore Wu Yu and Wu De Tang's waist badges. Seeing the three of us, they all got out of the way upstairs for us to pass. When I came to the door, the door was not closed, and when I walked in, I saw the portrait of my father placed on the small mourning hall in the living room. My mother was sobbing and talking to Uncle Da and a few other people from Wudetang, and when she saw me coming back, Uncle Da and my mother stood up, and Uncle Da walked up behind me and untied the rope that bound me.
Out of guilt, I knelt down in front of my mother and wept bitterly. My mother cried along with me, and when I looked up, she slapped me in the face four or five times in anger, and hit me with stars in the eyes. Covering his face and looking at her in a daze, but what was ushered in was a random beating, Uncle Da hurriedly stopped and said: "Sister-in-law, don't fight, Dachuan is still young, and it is understandable that he is eager to take revenge when he encounters such a thing." Now that the person has returned, there is nothing to do, just hit twice to get angry, don't do it. β
"Still young?" my mother pointed at me, her stern gaze seemed to pierce the skin on my body, "When his father was so old with him, he was already the most efficient deacon in Wude Hall. We spoil him on weekdays, but we don't want him to get involved in the world's strife so early. But today, Lao Xiao sacrificed in order to protect the Punishment Division, but he only wanted to go to the island because of a moment of grief and indignation, if he failed to stop him back in time, and lost his life in danger, how can I live in the second half of my life! This is not just a matter of losing my life, if this ruins the great plan of the command history, I don't know how many people's families will be ruined, I don't beat him, can he understand. β
These words were like a hammer in my heart, and I leaned over and cried to myself: "My son was stupid, I let grief and anger occupy my mind at that time, and I didn't think about so many things at all, so what my mother just said, my son didn't think about half of it, and now I have been woken up by my mother, and I won't be so impulsive." Mom, don't be angry, I was wrong, I was wrong. β
crawled on the ground and turned around, kowtowing to Uncle Da a few times: "Uncle Da, I'm sorry, I was confused for a while, and I almost made a big mistake, from now on, Xiao Jinchuan will definitely obey Uncle Da's dispatch, and ask Uncle Da for forgiveness, I was wrong." β
That's really it, on the way home, my emotions have gradually become rational, and I don't just think about revenge like I did at the beginning, and I don't think about any consequences. On the way home, what I thought about the most was what my mother would do if I also died, and if I were to implicate Chen Dake and Wang Luzhao and lose their lives, would their parents hate me? But I didn't think about the so-called big picture at all, many years later, I talked to a friend about it, and he laughed at me and said that I was occupied by hatred at that time, and from another level, my approach at this time was very naΓ―ve, and it can also be called shallow experience.
Uncle Da frowned, bent down to pull me up, and then said to me: "Today's matter is also reasonable, if I were you, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to tie it back." However, what your mother said is right, even if you don't think about the big picture, you have to think about your mother. Now that your dad is gone, if you make a mistake, your mother will be truly helpless for the rest of her life. The loss of a husband in his later years is a great grief, and if there is another pain of losing a child, no matter who is at our age, he will not be able to bear such grief. β
"Uncle Da, don't worry, from now on, I, Xiao Jinchuan, will never be so reckless again. He turned to his mother and said, "Mom, where is my father's body?" I didn't even have time to tidy up my father's clothes, and I want to go and tidy up his old man's house now. β
My mother wiped the tears from her face, put her arm on my shoulder, and said, "Your father's body has been placed in the funeral home by the people of Wudetang, wait for you to go over, burn him more paper money, he has been poor for most of his life, and he can't let him suffer when he gets there." If there is anything you need to prepare, you can do it, and when you come back early in the evening, you will have to keep a wake for your father. β
Leave the house, get your things ready, and head to the funeral home. After we arrived, there were no people from Wudetang, but after more than an hour, the number of people who came here to worship my father began to increase. Chen Dake and Wang Zhaozhao followed me to busy before and after, if it wasn't for the two of them, I would never be able to cope with it myself. After a busy day, the sky was getting dark, and the last wave of people who came to mourn were sent away, and the three of us returned home. My mother, like us, also received a lot of guests who came to mourn, and the house was chaotic. The four of us simply cleaned up, and my mother prepared some food for us.
After dinner, I asked Chen Dake and Wang to summon the two of them home to rest, and after taking care of my mother and sleeping, I knelt in front of my father's funeral hall. Looking at the portrait of my father, I couldn't help but cry when I thought about the past related to him. After crying for a long time, a wave of sleepiness suddenly hit, and after struggling a few times without success, he lowered his head and fell asleep.
In a daze, I felt that someone was pushing me, but when I opened my eyes, I was shocked, and the person who pushed me was my father. Hurriedly got up and hugged him, and plunged his head into his arms and wept bitterly. My father stroked my head with his hand, and said to me very kindly: "It's all young men, look at your crying virtue, like a child." β
Raising his head and staring at his father with tearful eyes, he choked up and said to him: "Dad, you are going to scare me to death, we all thought that you were sacrificed, and I will be relieved to see that you are okay now." I went and told my mother lest she grieve too much. β
Before I could turn around and leave, my father stopped me, smiled and said, "Don't worry, let her sleep for a while, let's talk about something." After saying that, Daddy took my hand and did it on the sofa.
hurriedly poured him a cup of herbal tea and asked: "You are really good at acting, at that time, I really thought that you were just leaving, and you still have ...... stuck in your body" Speaking of this, I suddenly found that something was wrong, my father didn't have a single wound on his body, not to mention that he still had three sharp blades stuck in his body at that time. I hurriedly asked my father, "Dad, how did your injury heal so quickly?"
Dad was still smiling: "It's not important, I'll tell you a few words first, you have to remember it carefully." β
I looked at my father in confusion, but he was not in a hurry, put down the herbal tea in his hand and said: "From now on, be kind to your mother, don't make her angry, you are now the only man in the family, you must be responsible." The pillars of the family are not called casually, and they must not be reckless in case of trouble, but must think twice and be cautious and orderly. In the future, if you still behave like today, how sad and sad your mother will be. β
"I remember, I won't dare in the future, don't worry. β
"These are all small things, you can understand them when you grow up, so I don't need to say too much. What I'm going to say next is what matters, and you have to keep it in mind and do what I say. β
