Chapter 153 People who are extremely sad have no tears
In the cowshed,
Chu Huaimin did not cry bitterly, but just lay quietly on the bed, just like the days when he pretended to be sick before, silently. The only difference was that he had his eyes open this time.
The only sounds in the entire space were those of a few people breathing.
No one spoke anymore, just stayed with him quietly, helping him digest the good news and bad news he had just received.
What is Chu Huaimin thinking?
There were no tears in his eyes. He just stared blankly at the dilapidated roof, as if he was thinking about something, but also as if he was thinking about nothing.
He blamed himself, blaming himself for not persisting in searching for his family. Would that have given him a chance to prevent his brother from dying young, and his Jiaojiao from dying...
Although I always think that kinship doesn’t matter, does it really matter?
If it was true, why would he be so heartbroken now? The person he wanted to save was either unable to do anything or it was too late.
The current situation is all caused by him. The family affection that I have always longed for has been destroyed one by one because of him!
At this time, Chu Huaimin fell into a vicious circle, as if these things would not happen without him.
"Huai Min?"
Wen Xue spoke with a trembling voice and sobs. She was afraid that if she didn't call him, the person in front of her would die.
"Don't be sad, you still have our family!"
Chu Xin knew that Chu Huaimin had suffered a great shock and needed motivation to help him get over it.
"Dad, you still have relatives in Kyoto, you still have a father, and a nephew.
I have never met my grandfather, but I have had more contact with my cousin. He is brave, straightforward and very open!
But now you don't have the ability to support the entire Chu family, so you can't be so depressed, there are people who still need you!"
Chu Huaimin's stiff body trembled, and then began to tremble uncontrollably. In a moment, his eyes were bloodshot, and no complete words came out of his dry throat.
Wen Xue was startled by his sudden loss of composure, and her hands kept rubbing Chu Huaimin's limbs.
"Huaimin, Huaimin, cry if you want to, please! Wuuuuuuu..."
Chu Xin and Wentai looked at each other. They were both helpless. He had to get through this hurdle by himself.
But Wentai could empathize more. How could Huaimin be sad about losing his brother? Today was also the day he lost his beloved daughter!
People who are extremely sad have no tears.
This always tenacious man really can't hold on any longer!
Chu Huaimin felt as if his throat was blocked by a lot of dry sand and gravel, and he wanted to struggle out of this feeling of powerlessness.
Even if he hits his head and bleeds profusely, he cannot be defeated!
Tears finally welled up in his eyes, and something seemed to be trying to burst out from his throat. Chu Huaimin opened his mouth hard, wanting to shout out the pain in his heart.
"puff!"
A mouthful of blood spurted out.
Wen Xue screamed and frantically wiped the blood from the corner of his lips with her hands.
Wentai also hurried to find medicine, staggering and almost falling.
Chu Xin stepped forward to support the man, "Grandpa..."
Wentai patted her hand and motioned him to go with him to find medicine.
After Chu Huaimin spat out the blood, he finally felt a little relieved. He grabbed his wife's blood-stained hands, hugged her in his arms, and burst into tears while holding her.
Crying like a child, roaring to vent the pain in my heart!
Wen Xue wiped away her tears and hugged him back, "Huai Min, I'm here, we're all here!"
Chu Xin, who found the medicine, did not go over to disturb them. Instead, he helped Wen Tai sit down on the only stool and waited for Chu Huaimin to calm down.
The other people in the cowshed were so frightened by today's strange events that they dared not go out. They were especially terrified when they heard the crying and howling in the Chu family cowshed late at night.
They all speculated whether Chu Huaimin was dying, but they also sighed for their situation.
It took a long time for Chu Huaimin to calm down, and Chu Xin immediately handed him the medicine.
Chu Huaimin took the medicine, took a few deep breaths, and then looked up at Chu Xin.
"Thank you for telling me this, kid. I'm trapped here now. Not only is it safe, but I might even end up making you a target for assassination!"
Wen Xue's hand holding the bowl trembled, and her fingers kept tightening, making a "squeaking" sound of friction, but she didn't say anything.
She looked up at Wentai and saw that her father looked calm, so she quickly lowered her head.
Chu Xin noticed it but didn't say anything. After all, she couldn't be like Jiaojiao and just stay by her parents' side.
She is going to go out and face the bloody storm, and Wen Xue has to accept herself like this!
Chu Xin nodded heavily towards Chu Huaimin, "I know, Dad!"
Then tell them that the farm will no longer persecute them, and they don’t have to live in fear until Gu Xuan discovers the situation here.
"It's better for you to stay here for the time being. It's very chaotic outside now, and it's not a good time to redress your wrongdoing.
Besides, Chu Ge and his mother are more powerful than us now, so it's not appropriate for them to go head-to-head. I will also find an opportunity to expose them!"
"No, child, I said that to warn you. I wouldn't trust you to fight them alone.
So don't force it, just put your own safety first. I will live well and live to see the day of revenge for the Chu family!"
Chu Huaimin treated Chu Xin as his own child and spoke sincerely.
Chu Xin smiled, her eyes full of cruelty.
"Don't forget what my job is. I have no qualms about investigating them, both for public and private reasons."
……
The time spent together is always short. After Chu Xin settled everything, he proposed to leave to carry out the mission.
The Chu family also knew that she still had a mission to complete, so they could only see her off with tears in their eyes as she disappeared into the night.
Just as she came, silently.
When Chu Xin returned to Brother Hu's house, the couple had not yet rested, and surprisingly, Yang Zheng had already left.
"I tried to persuade him but he wouldn't listen. I just asked for a little of each of the medicines you gave me. I was worried he wouldn't be able to handle it, so I gave them to him. Is that okay?!"
As soon as Liu Yanli saw Chu Xin coming back, she hurried to tell her.
Chu Xin: "It's okay, just give it to him if he wants it!"
No matter what he uses it for, it will be considered as a thank you gift for taking care of the family.
Chu Xin will be leaving tomorrow, so Liu Yanli didn't disturb her rest. She said a few words and went back to sleep.
Chu Xin waited until the couple fell asleep, then went out quietly again.
When she came back, she fell asleep almost as soon as she touched the pillow. She really had hardly had a good night's sleep during this period.
The next morning, when Chu Xin got up, Liu Yanli had already prepared breakfast waiting for her.
He also prepared some snacks for Chu Xin, "These are for you to eat while you're on the way."
Chu Xin didn't refuse. She took it and put it next to her bag, waiting to take it with her when she left.
At around 7 o'clock, Brother Hu drove his car to take Chu Xin to the county railway station.
Before getting on the bus, Chu Xin handed Brother Hu an envelope and said, "Open it when we get back to the commune!"
Brother Hu just thought it was the money she left for her family, and nodded with a smile, telling her not to worry.
When Brother Hu returned and opened the envelope, he found not only money but also a note addressed to him.
He opened it and took a look, his face full of suspicion, and quickly drove to the place Chu Xin mentioned.
Pushing open the half-open door that was barely hanging, Brother Hu frowned. It was obvious that no one had lived here for a long time!
He then went straight to the main room mentioned in the note and found a pin-and-tumble lock hanging on the door, which was totally out of place in the shabby house.
Brother Hu took out a key from the envelope, inserted it into the keyhole and turned it, and the lock opened.
When he opened the door, Brother Hu was stunned.
Did he know what Chu Xin meant by "If you can use it, use it yourself. If you can't use it, sell it and save the money for your parents?"
The whole room was filled with all kinds of mahogany furniture, rare electrical appliances, and even leather sofas. Not only was the room packed, but there was also a lot of food and nutritional supplements stuffed in every corner!
My goodness, how did his niece get these things here?
Could it be that they raided some high-ranking official's house like the Red Guards did?
