She doesn't want to pretend anymore

"Yes, Dad, just tell us what you want us to do, but there's no need to be so angry."

"We had no choice back then. You couldn't just watch your grandson go to the countryside and suffer, right? I was pregnant at the time. If we didn't protect ourselves and went to the countryside, would we be able to keep the baby?"

The couple talked about what happened back then over and over again.

Uncle Hu's face went from having a stern expression at first to having veins popping out on it later.

"Look at our mother, she didn't make it."

It would have been fine if Mrs. Hu hadn't said this, but as soon as she said it, the old man became furious.

"Get lost, none of you have the right to mention her!"

Manshu finally understood that there was a story behind this.

It seems that the death of Mr. Hu’s wife is closely related to his children.

Manshu heard someone whispering, "This Aunt Hu was a beauty back then, she was in the cultural troupe. The He family man could sing opera, and Aunt Hu could dance. She used to be the daughter of a capitalist, and she married Uncle Hu, so logically there should be no problem with her background."

"But who let the eldest daughter of a capitalist hide the gold bracelet at home? Aunt Hu was also reported at the beginning, and was personally sent to be criticized by her son and daughter-in-law."

"Mrs. Hu's leg was broken by her daughter-in-law hitting her with a carrying pole."

Manshu was horrified when he heard this. Could there be such a vicious person in this world?

In that era, they probably didn't think of themselves as evil, but rather felt that they were the embodiment of justice.

As children, they should not cover up for their parents, but instead report them, parade them through the streets, and be the first to beat them up, always being the most brutal.

A dancer had her leg broken. This not only destroyed her body, but also destroyed the spirit of Aunt Hu.

"The daughter-in-law here is too vicious. She broke her mother-in-law's legs herself. What did she want?"

The old lady who knew the inside story whispered, "What can she gain? Back then, the relationship between my daughter-in-law and Aunt Hu was not good. Aunt Hu was not the original wife, she was beautiful and had money. My daughter-in-law wanted her jewelry many times, but she didn't give it to her. She also complained that my daughter-in-law was rude and had ruined her things. So..."

Needless to say, we all know that this daughter-in-law is jealous, jealous of Aunt Hu's beauty, and the best way is to destroy her and destroy her pride.

Doesn't she love dancing?

Then break her legs.

"Is this Aunt Hu mistreating Uncle Hu's ex-wife's child?"

Someone asked again.

The old woman said, "It's not that she treated me harshly, she just maintained a superficial relationship. She is a daughter after all, she wouldn't do such a mean thing. She is very polite to others, and she was not bad to the two children she gave birth to earlier."

"Then the Hu couple have lost their conscience."

"Isn't it? Boss Hu is not happy about it. He thinks that Master Hu is partial to his concubine and his youngest son."

"Speaking of which, Uncle Hu actually had a younger son, but he seemed to have been washed away by a flood in the countryside that year, and we haven't heard from him since."

"Mrs. Hu had a hard life in the countryside and her legs were not in good condition. When she was by the river, she blamed herself for not holding her son back. She died of illness before she could be vindicated."

Manshu thought to himself, this was not death from illness, but rather from depression in his heart.

My son couldn't be saved because his legs were useless and no one took good care of him.

I watched him being washed away by the flood, and we were separated from each other forever.

However, being washed away by a flood does not necessarily mean death.

What if you are still alive?

Someone asked the question that Manshu wanted to ask first.

"If he was alive, he would have been found long ago, right? Although I was young at that time, I am sure I would remember it."

"Speaking of which, Uncle Hu has spent a lot of money over the years to place an ad in the newspaper to look for his youngest son."
