Chapter 480 A safe place
When Zhou Dazhu heard this, his eyes instantly warmed and his heart ached. He felt ashamed to see Xiao Xiong, but upon hearing that his son was doing well, his heart finally settled. It seemed that entrusting Xiao Xiong to his good brother Zhao Cunliang had been the right move.
"Take these back and eat them," Zhou Dazhu said, handing bundles of pheasants and rabbits to Guangzong. "I'm relieved that Little Bear can be with you."
Guangzong quickly stretched out one hand to take it. Zhou Dazhu then noticed that Guangzong's other hand was empty. His heart tightened. He suddenly reached out and grabbed the empty cuff and asked, "Guangzong, what's wrong with your hand?"
When Guangzong mentioned his disabled hand, he felt a wave of sadness in his heart. A bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said helplessly: "Uncle Dazhu, this hand of mine... was disabled by my wife."
Zhou Dazhu was filled with disbelief when he heard this. "What? There's such a bold woman in this world! How could Brother Zhao let such a wicked woman into the house? What on earth happened?"
Seeing this, Guangzong's eyes flashed with a subtle cunning, and he cried, adding fuel to the fire: "Uncle Dazhu, you don't know, Xiuying is the one who controls the village now, she is like a local emperor, dominating and wielding power.
"We were the only family in the village who dared to resist her domineering behavior. As a result, she held a grudge and forced Cuihua, the evil woman, into our home. Cuihua would hit us and scold us if we did anything that didn't go her way. She was completely unreasonable. She cruelly crippled my hand last time when I was trying to protect the little bear!"
The more Zhou Dazhu listened, the more fury he felt. The thought of his beloved son suffering at the hands of that woman instantly filled his eyes with rage. He clenched his long knife tightly and slammed his fist into the tree beside him, sending birds flying.
Seeing that Zhou Dazhu had taken the bait, Guangzong continued to exaggerate, saying, "Uncle Dazhu, don't worry. Our family will do everything in our power to protect Little Bear and will never let him suffer any harm from that crazy woman Cuihua and Xiuying. You don't know, Xiuying is very petty. Just because of Xiao Laoliu's matter, she pretends not to care on the surface, but in her heart she probably resents you."
At this moment, Zhou Dazhu's eyes suddenly flashed with murderous intent. He was a murderer, and now he had become a bandit in the mountains. In his eyes, killing was as simple as losing his head.
"Guangzong, don't worry!" Zhou Dazhu gritted his teeth and spoke word by word. "I will definitely find a way to get rid of that bitch Cuihua and avenge you! Since you lost one hand, I will kill her and then chop off the hands of Xiuying's seven daughters so that they can also taste the pain!"
After saying that, Zhou Dazhu turned around without looking back and disappeared into the dense forest in a few big strides.
Guangzong looked at the direction where Zhou Dazhu disappeared, and a hint of pride flashed in his eyes. Looking at Zhou Dazhu's ferocious look just now, he didn't look like an ordinary bandit, but clearly a ruthless character.
Humph, Xiuying, that evil woman Cuihua, and those seven worthless losers, their good days are probably over.
Guangzong turned around and carefully smoothed the tender grass in his backpack, trying to make it look fuller. Then, he gathered up the game Zhou Dazhu had left behind. The game was alive, tightly bound with straw ropes, occasionally fluttering. Guangzong's lips curled slightly as he leisurely walked home, carrying his harvest.
"Why did you come back so early today?" Cuihua lazily lay on a chair in the yard and glanced at Guangzong casually.
Guangzong carefully put down the backpack and put on a flattering smile on his face: "My wife, I am really lucky today. I encountered a lot of game in the mountains and caught some, so I came back early." As he said, he bent down, took out the hares and pheasants from the backpack one by one, and put them on the ground.
Tian Guilan was cleaning chicken manure in the chicken coop. When she heard Guangzong say that they had caught wild game, she quickly put down her work and hurried out.
Seeing the pheasants and rabbits jumping around on the ground, she couldn't stop laughing. "My eldest son is really amazing! He only has one hand left, but he can still catch so many game. If his other hand was still broken, wouldn't my son catch even more?"
Hearing his mother's praise, Guangzong felt as if something was choking his heart, and he felt indescribable discomfort. These words were particularly harsh in his ears, as if every word was reminding him of his disability.
Tian Guilan was overjoyed as she carried the rabbits into the cage and then released the pheasants into the henhouse. She had no doubt that Guangzong could catch so many prey with one hand. In her mind, her son was meant to have such an ability; he was born different.
Cuihua walked over slowly, looked straight at Guangzong, and asked with a questioning tone: "Are you sure you caught all these with your own hands?"
Guangzong's heart skipped a beat, but he still bravely said with a smug look on his face, "Of course! I caught all these with my own skills. I, Guangzong, have many skills!"
Cuihua looked him up and down without saying anything else. She simply glanced at the chicken coop and rabbit cage and said in a cold tone, "Okay, catch me two rabbits and three pheasants tomorrow. If you don't catch any, don't even think about eating."
When Tian Guilan heard this, she immediately became confident and shouted at the top of her voice: "Catch them. My son is very capable. Even if he catches ten, it's no problem!" But as soon as she said this, she caught a glimpse of Cuihua's face as cold as ice, and she was so scared that she quickly shrank her neck.
When Guangzong heard this, he couldn't help but curse inwardly. This was just a deliberate attempt to make things difficult for him. Where was he going to find so much game tomorrow? He was just lucky today, as Zhou Dazhu had given it to him. What was he going to do tomorrow...
Zhao Cunliang stood outside the kitchen, his eyes fixed on his son's broken hand. Only his utterly clueless daughter-in-law would believe his son's words. Seeing that no one was paying attention, he dragged Guangzong to the toilet.
In the Zhao family, the toilet is now the only safest place.
why?
Because Cuihua always used a bucket to relieve herself in the house, and then had Tian Guilan take it to the toilet to empty it. Cuihua disliked the toilet because it was dirty, smelly, and full of flies, so she would never go near it on weekdays.
The question "What do flies smell like" that Zhao Cunliang asked his sons was also in this toilet. He saw the flies flying around and then he figured it out on a flash of inspiration.
