Yun Lei also found the village chief and brought him over to Zhang family home.
Meanwhile, Yun Hai found Zhang Ming and his father and recounted the entire incident to them.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Zhang Mingâs face turned somewhat grim.
Zhangâs fatherâs complexion also reflected a similar discomfort.
âUncle, I would like to ask something?â
Although Zhangâs father had no idea what his brother-in-law wanted to ask, he still responded, âPlease go ahead, brother.â
âIs Zhang Jiang really Uncleâs biological son?â
Zhangâs father was taken aback, âMy dear brother, why such a question?â
âBecause I saw the matriarch condone her ten-year-old grandson hitting her four-year-old grandson, without uttering a single word of disapproval, even advising the younger grandson not to tell his parents.â
The faces of Zhang Ming and his father darkened even further with embarrassment.
Zhang Ming was honestly clueless about the entire situation.
âI hope Uncle wonât be biased.â With these words, Yun Hai left their home.
As soon as Zhang Ming entered the yard, he found the village chief, his in-laws, his wife, and his youngest son.
âVillage Chiefâ¦..â
âI came to know about the matter. Yun Lei asked me to handle it. Although itâs a family issue, Yun Lei went out of his way to seek my assistance, so I decided to check.â
âZhang Jiang, I heard that your wife and your son were at home. Call your son out and have him explain what happened.â The village chief directly addressed Zhang Jiang.
Little Zhang Yunxuan was brought back.
Yun Lei squatted down and softly touched his little face, âLittle Zhuzi, tell your second uncle, how did your mother get injured?â
Zhangâs mother attempted to silence her grandson, but was held back by Yunâs mother, âMother-in-law, rest assured. Little Zhuzi may be young, but he does not lie. He will tell the truth.â
This left Zhangâs mother speechless.
Zhang Jiang was feeling terrible inside.
His mother often said that they would rely on him, the youngest son, to take care of them in the future. Now recalling the past,
He used to wear his elder brotherâs hand-me-down clothes. He would often watch his elder brother adorned in new clothes while he wore the old ones. His mother always promised to make him new clothes someday. He waited and waited right until he was about to get married and finally stopped wearing his brotherâs old clothes because his brother was already married.
And his mother also controlled what he ate. She always said it was for his own good, but the way she behaved made his heart go cold.
Little Zhang Yunxuan, with his head bowed and in a small voice said, âMy elder brother came home looking for food. I ran away when he tried to snatch what I was eating. He shoved my mom in the process and she started bleeding. There was a lot of blood and he just ran away⦠Wah, Wahâ¦â
Zhang Mingâs face turned ashen.
âVillage Chief, my younger sister Xiaomen took some medicine and managed to save her child. But it canât end like this. If news of this incident spreads, and the other children in the village start to do the same, who would dare to marry their daughter into a family that has brothers?â Yun Leiâs mind was racing. His mother had whispered something in his ear earlier in a low voice about pitting uncle and aunt against Zhang Ming, to ensure that they are seen as separate bodies within the family.
âThey are just kidsâ¦â Zhangâs mother mumbled to herself.
Although the voice was almost a whisper, everyone heard and saw it.
âYes, kids, because children who kill donât break the law.â Yunâs mother coldly retorted.
