“Cough cough!” The old bachelor coughed twice and opened his eyes at once, seeing that Xu San and the others had disappeared, and seeing his old mother hugging him and crying bitterly, he hurriedly asked, “Mom, the gang didn’t hit you, did they?”
“No…… no……” the old lady cried, “This gang was beaten by heaven, they dared to beat my son, they all deserve to die! They’re all going to die. ……”
The old bachelor said with relief, “Mom, I’m fine, don’t cry, if you cry, you’ll ruin your health and I won’t have money to treat you.”
“Son, I won’t cry and break my body, as long as you are well, mum can live, if you are not there, mum can’t live either.” The mother said.
This old lady was really tenacious, she was not scared or angry to death by Xu San and the others, it seemed that she had a good psychological quality and ability to endure.
No wonder, there were so many waves of people who couldn’t do their job, Zhao Shan really had no choice but to get Yang Song to send someone over to use force on them.
“Ma, are these people from the construction team?” The old bachelor enquired.
“I don’t think so, I’ve never seen them before.” The old lady shook her head and said.
“Then are they the ones they paid to come here?” The old bachelor continued to ask.
“I suppose so,” the old woman said after a moment’s hesitation, “Yes, it was the construction crew who sent them ……”
The old bachelor said hurriedly, “Then we’ll go and sue them.”
“How can we go and sue someone if we have no evidence?” The old woman wiped a tear from her eye with her hand and said, “It seems that we can’t keep this small courtyard left by our ancestors ……”
“I won’t move out even if they beat me to death!” The old bachelor said stubbornly.
“Son, I am already about to go to the ground, you are also half in the ground, there is no need to fight with them, we can’t fight with them, I think it is better to move out!” The old lady lamented, “I now realise that living is better than nothing, you are not married and have no children, our He family has no descendants from now on, when we die, there is no point in keeping this place, let them take it away!”
Without waiting for the old bachelor to say anything, the old woman got up from the floor of the dam and walked towards the room.
The old bachelor was afraid that his mother might have second thoughts and do something unwise, so he followed her into the room.
The room was a mess, with smashed things and pieces of bottles and jars everywhere.
These were the things that mother and son had worked so hard to put together over the years, some of them “treasures” left behind by their ancestors, but now they were in ruins.
The old lady was so distraught, so grief-stricken, that she burst into tears.
Too angry to speak, she hobbled to her room and took her clothes out of the smashed wooden wardrobe, one by one, and put them on her dirty bed.
The old bachelor, seeing his mother in such a perverse state, asked in disbelief, “Mother, what are you doing?”
The old woman said with tears streaming down her face, “Ping’er, go and pack your own things in your room too, we’ll move out of here right away!”
“Why do you have to move out tonight?” The old bachelor questioned.
“When you were knocked unconscious by them just now, that bald man said that if they come tomorrow morning and find that we haven’t moved out from here, they will throw you into the well,” the old woman cried, “If you die, I don’t want to live either, we can’t hide if we can’t afford to mess with them? If the bandits come back, it will be too late for us to leave.”
Although the old lady was reluctant to move out of the house, she had a strong desire to live.
She had to bow down before the forces of evil for the sake of her precious son, who was dependent on her for life and whose life was more important than anything else.
She knew that all the earth around her house had been carried away, that it had become an island, that there was no one anywhere, that when they were bullied by this gang of thugs led by Xu San, no one would hear them even if they shouted to the heavens, and even if they did, no one would care.
“It’s so late, where are we going to move to?” The old bachelor said worriedly.
“We’ll take the covers and deal with the street for the night, then go to the demolition office first thing in the morning and ask them to help us arrange a place to live.” The old lady replied.
“That’s …… fine!” The old bachelor said with a nod.
The scene he had just seen when he had been pinned to the ground and beaten by Old Six and the others came to mind, and now, having been beaten all over his body, although his body was no longer bleeding, the parts that had been bruised were still vaguely painful.
Not wanting to be beaten again, he took his mother’s advice, rolled up his blanket, pulled the old woman with him, limped out of the house and carefully left the “island”.
……
At 9:00 p.m., Yang Song pulled a Mercedes 500 sedan to the entrance of the Dragon Python Group of Companies on time.
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the public.
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the public.
At this time, Xu San led a group of people to the nail household, after some smashing, the mother and son finally succumbed, the old bachelor is carrying luggage, holding his mother’s hand, from the home, leaving the “island”.
Yang Song, through the windscreen of his car, pointed at the mother and son who were cautiously coming down from above by the dim light of the construction site, and asked smugly.
“Shanshan, look at this nail-biter we’ve put right, what do you think of the efficiency of these little brothers of mine?”
“Sloppy,” asked Zhao Shan, pouting, “they won’t get us into trouble if they do that, will they?”
“Don’t worry, my brothers have their own rules. If they cause trouble, can that mother and son willingly move out of the house?” Yang Song said with relief.
While we were talking, a Santana police car with its lights flashing came down the street.
“Didn’t you say there was no trouble? Why are the police coming over?” Zhao Shan’s heart tightened and she questioned Yang Song.
“Huh? What’s going on?” Yang Song was also a little surprised to see that the police car was running their way.
It turned out that the person who drove past this Audi police car from the street was Tang Huimin.
She was driving home after a meeting at the Municipal Public Security Bureau and was unaware of what was happening here, but Zhao Shan and Yang Song had ghosts in their minds and were scaring themselves.
After the Audi police car passed in front of their Mercedes 500 car parked inside, they realized it was a false alarm and breathed a long sigh of relief to each other.
At this juncture, both Zhao Shan and Yang Song did not want the police to find them in trouble because the old city of Xicheng had just entered the construction phase, and she did not want the construction progress to be affected by the uprooting of the nail households.
