Chapter 130: Chapter 128: Repaying Debts: The Storm Approaches (Part II)
U.dted by BXN0VEL.cmBut Dad Di Yelei hesitated.
Ms. Zhao, let go of Third Child. Youre embarrassing yourself, a woman acting like this. I, Di Defu, must have no luck or virtue to have married a disaster like you. Sigh! Elderly Mr. Di sighed, looking as if he aged by ten years in an instant.
Ms. Zhao couldnt help but let go of Di Yeleis thigh, moving closer to Elderly Mr. Di with a whimper.
Old man, whats the matter? This is
Ms. Zhao! Im getting old! I dont have many years left, and I cant protect you for much longer, so you just take care of yourself.
After saying this, Elderly Mr. Di leaned on his crutch, shakily walking back into the room. The once shrewd and decisive man had succumbed to the passage of time, now walking with great caution in his old age.
Old man! Old man! Old man!
Ms. Zhaos mournful cries couldnt bring him back. Elderly Mr. Dis heavy steps led him into the room, and he closed the door behind him.
Old man! You damn bastard, are you really just abandoning me like this?
Ms. Zhao fell silent for a moment before suddenly wailing loudly, louder than at any other time.
Di Yelei ignored her, took the bamboo basket from Liu Sisis hands, placed it at his fathers door, and left the old house, not looking back.
I heard she is my mothers distant cousin. Although shes a few years younger than my mother, my mother liked her the most. When my dad had an arranged marriage with my mother, she was just a young girl accompanying my mother. She fell in love with my dad at first sight. Unfortunately, my dad and my mother were already in love, so when my mother married him, their feelings remained strong. She didnt marry until she was 20 years old and considered an old maiden. A big reason for my mothers constant illness was her presence. After my mother passed away and her husband died, she couldnt wait any longer and married over here after her three-year mourning period.
Di Yelei held Liu Sisis hand, speaking softly.
So there was such an inside story!
If thats the case, Ms. Zhaos feelings for Dis father should be considered genuine.
Liu Sisi nodded, recalling Elderly Mr. Dis words just now, suddenly understanding why Ms. Zhao was crying so bitterly!
Di Yeleis large hand felt exceptionally warm and strong, completely enveloping her small hand as they quickly walked toward home.
Halfway there, they could already see Di Xuan tumbling and crawling toward them from a distance, rolling on the ground by accident.
Dad! Somethings happened to Dad!
The two were shocked! Di Yelei took a few quick steps to help Di Xuan up.
Whats going on? Xuaner!
Something happenedat home Di Xuan gasped for breath.
Di Yelei suddenly pushed Di Xuan aside and sprinted towards home like a madman.
Dad, dont go! Someones there to catch you
Di Xuan, sweating profusely, yelled loudly, Dad! Dont go back there are there are so many governmental offices runners at home, they say they say theyre here to catch you!
To catch Yelei?
Liu Sisis head buzzed, and she couldnt help but sway a little.
Forcing herself to steady her body, she quickly grabbed Xuaner clothes, almost toppling him with her strength. What did you just say? There are governmental offices runners at home to catch Yelei?
Di Xuans face was covered with sweat and tears. He gritted his teeth and nodded, Mom! What should we do?
What can they do?
Get up! Lets go back and see!
Liu Sisi yanked Di Xuan up forcefully, no longer caring about anything else. They both sprinted towards home, and she didnt even bother to pick up the bamboo basket.
The short distance seemed insurmountable, and Liu Sisis mind was a chaotic mess, unable to recall anything.
Before she even got back to her house, Sisi heard YingErs cries from afar.
The doorway to the house was surrounded by layers of people, all pointing and chattering in the center of the scene, creating a loud, chaotic atmosphere.
Make way! Make way
Liu Sisi desperately tried to push through the crowd, which was tightly packed and left no gaps at all.
In her urgency, Liu Sisi bit the person in front of her fiercely, not even caring where her teeth landed. As expected, the person turned around and cursed angrily!
Seizing the moment, Liu Sisi squeezed through the crowd and finally got a clear view of the situation in the courtyard.
At the entrance of the courtyard, there were four officers with big blades standing solemnly on each side, successfully stopping the curious onlookers. YingEr sat weeping in the center of the courtyard, her once-clean body now covered in mud. Two more officers were standing on either side of the halls doorway.
Without saying a word, Liu Sisi lowered her head and rushed in.
Stop! Nobody is allowed to interfere with the governments legal process!
Two officers with massive blades barred the entrance, preventing Liu Sisi from entering.
Let go! This is my home! I am the mistress here! Let me in. Liu Sisi, completely disregarding everything, madly tried to break in.
Only then did the two officers let her pass.
Once inside, Liu Sisi quickly helped YingEr up from the ground: YingEr, YingEr, dont cry! Wheres your dad? Wheres your dad?
Dad, Daddy is in the room Mom! Waaaah
YingEr continued to cry uncontrollably.
Dont cry, YingEr, dont cry. Mom will go have a look. Dont cry!
Liu Sisi left YingEr and strode towards the hall.
YingEr wont cry, no more crying! YingEr wiped her tears away.
Before she could come any closer, the door of the hall opened from inside, and Zuo Xingyu came out with Di Yelei in tow.
Di Yeleis shoulders were wrapped in a thick iron chain, along with a heavy shackle, and his feet were dragging a large chain. With every step he took, the chain made a loud clinking noise that dumbfounded Liu Sisi.
Ye Lei! What happened to you? Didnt you say everything was fine? What on earth is going on?
Liu Sisi exclaimed as she rushed towards them.
Idle people must not interfere with the governments case!
Besides Zuo Xingyu, another elderly constable was holding Di Yeleis arm. The man pushed Liu Sisi away the moment she got too close.
Liu Sisi pleaded, Mr.Officer, please give me some leeway, I just want to say a few words, just a few words!
Let her say a few words! Law is not devoid of human kindness; there is always time for a word or two. Zuo Xingyu finally spoke up.
Fine! Its up to you, leader.
The man turned around and ordered the others, Hurry up! We have to escort the criminal back to the county government office immediately, we will have to travel through the night tonight, such terrible luck!
Sisi, Im sorry to have worried you again.
Regardless of the current situation, Di Yelei spoke softly to Liu Sisi, Dont worry, take care of yourself and the two children. I will return home safely. Think about it, have I ever broken a promise that I made to you?
His words carried an inexplicable reassuring power.
