After returning home that day, as soon as Hong Yanwu entered the door, he was scolded by his eldest brother Hong Yan.

This is not just because they ate dinner outside without telling their family, which caused the meals at home to be wasted many times.

It was also because of their delay in returning that Tailor Su became worried about his daughter and went to Hong's house to ask questions several times. The Hong family felt very guilty for this.

Fortunately, the two lunch boxes of "Zhulian Duck Breast" and "Sauce-fried Duck Slices" that Hong Yanwu brought back, and the seven duck racks, have the same effect as "exoneration charms". When these things were placed on the table, not only did the nagging elder brother stare at them, but also the mother and sister-in-law came around curiously and asked about the origins of the things.

Needless to say, Song Guofu was Hong Yanwu's most high-sounding excuse. Using him as an excuse easily dispelled his family's suspicions. Several old neighbors in the east courtyard were all beaming after receiving the two duck racks from the Hong family.

Especially Tailor Su. After listening to Su Xiu talk about this happy day, and then looking at the two duck racks his daughter brought back, he felt particularly embarrassed for bothering him when he went to the Hong family. I had to make a special trip to Hong's house and solemnly thank Hong Yanwu before I felt at ease.

But all these situations made Hong Yanwu's eldest brother feel as if someone had forcibly blocked his mouth with candy. It's sweet, but it's quite uncomfortable to have it stuck in your throat. So in an indescribable awkwardness, he was the only one who returned to his room in a bad mood.

However, although this small family turmoil ended in time, every family in the entire east courtyard also praised Hong Yanwu. But because Fang Ting had talked about Gao Ming's recent situation at the dinner table today, Hong Yanwu had a nightmare that night.

It can even be said that he had nightmares throughout the night.

Not only did he dream about every time he was convicted and imprisoned for helping Gao Ming in his previous life, he also dreamed about the days when he was imprisoned in the darkness by Gao Ming. By the end, he was even dreaming of horrific scenes that never happened.

In his dream, he returned to the day when the world ended. However, at the critical moment when he was about to escape from the villa on a snowy night, Gao Ming suddenly appeared at the door and blocked him. Then he chose They broke his hand tendons and hamstrings, and finally buried him alive in the ice and snow...

This kind of creepiness was extremely real. When Hong Yanwu finally couldn't help but let out a scream and rolled over from the bed, sweat had soaked the sheets.

Chen Liquan was naturally awakened by the shouting. He really couldn't imagine what Hong Yanwu had experienced in his dream, so he quickly pulled out the light cord. When he squinted at the alarm clock, it was only three o'clock in the morning, and asked in a low voice.

"Xiao Wu, what's wrong with you? What nightmare did you have?"

As soon as Hong Yanwu saw Chen Liquan's face clearly, his mood immediately became much calmer. At this moment, Quanzi was most fortunate to be able to turn on the light. Otherwise, he might have really thought that he had returned to the previous life and suffered the murderous hands of Gao Ming.

"I... dreamed of... that kid Gao Ming."

Hearing Hong Yanwu’s breathless reply, Chen Liquan became even more puzzled. In his opinion, what's so scary about a young man like Gao Ming who usually only plays tricks and uses their skills to show off his power?

"Huh? He alone can scare you like this in your dream? Whenever that kid sees us, doesn't he always nod and bow down? If he can't fight and has no sense of loyalty, he will use people and scheme. People, use some dirty tricks..."

But in response to Chen Liquan's disdainful questioning, Hong Yanwu gave a different answer with deep feeling.

"Hey, Quanzi, it's the boss who can use and scheme with people that's scary. If you're not careful, he can trick you and make you unable to stand up for the rest of your life. But it was all thanks to me, if I hadn't pulled you. , you won’t be implicated..."

After Hong Yanwu came back this time, he rarely expressed his deepest gratitude to Chen Liquan. Because every time he just wanted to say thank you or express his apology, Chen Liquan would look unhappy, as if the relationship between the two of them would be far apart after such polite remarks.

This naturally proves that the true friendship between him and Chen Liquan in times of adversity has gone beyond the ordinary loyalty of buddies. The two of them are actually closer than brothers. So it was the same this time. As soon as he said this, Chen Liquan's voice immediately became a little louder and he excused him first.

"Don't say that, what's your fault? It's all because of Gao Ming's wickedness! He asked us to come forward to help him beat up the teacher's son, but he kept us in the dark. When something really happens, Son, this grandson pushed him again. To be honest, if you are still angry about what happened back then, we might as well beat him up again to save you from having to worry about it."

Hong Yanwu could fully understand Chen Liquan's good intention of venting his anger on his behalf, but he shook his head and rejected the idea.

"No, didn't you listen to Fang Ting? Gao Ming has already joined the army. Before May Day, he will go to the army to report. If we beat him again, we will beat a revolutionary soldier. That boy will definitely do it. Make a fuss out of this crime..."

Chen Liquan hadn't woken up yet. When he heard that this method didn't work, he didn't have the energy to think of other methods. He fell back on the pillow and murmured advice in a semi-conscious state.

"How about forget it... I don't think it's necessary to talk to him anymore. Anyway, we have all been arrested and have been in the correctional pen, so what if we give him a beating now? We might as well... just... Shame on him... let's live our own lives..."

As a result, before he finished speaking, he fell asleep again.

On the contrary, Hong Yanwu was completely awake after an extreme fright.

To be honest, through a conversation with Chen Liquan, he finally saw his own heart clearly.

Originally, he thought that he could forget everything that happened in the past, just as if the things in his previous life had never happened, and start writing a new life again without any burden. But people are such strange things, and some hatred has penetrated deep into the bones like a knife and an axe.

Gao Ming and Fang Ting are absolutely different.

As the two people who hurt him the most in his previous life, he could forgive Fang Ting for being a philistine and not care about Fang Ting's betrayal. That was because Fang Ting had tried her best to take care of him and gave him a wonderful family life. It was also because he and Fang Ting were in a similar situation and were both the same poor people on a spiritual level.

But he would never forgive Gao Ming, because this man was full of condescending contempt from the very core, and what he always gave him was the conspiracy behind his smile and the poisonous sweet bait.

Now that I think about it carefully, Gao Ming has never been sincere to him, nor has he been an equal. To put it bluntly, I have never treated him as a person, only as a useful tool, or a valuable fool who can be used anytime, anywhere, and played at his disposal.

So, the feud between them is not just an ordinary hatred based on interests, but also about personality and dignity.

Yes, he absolutely cannot let go of this hatred. Because even if we don't mention other things that haven't happened yet, at least it was because of Gao Ming that his and Chen Liquan's futures were put to an end in the labor camp.

Yes, he was indeed powerless to change this outcome. Being receptive and swallowing his anger is innately incompatible with his character. He must not act like nothing happened, as Chen Liquan said, and let Gao Ming, a young man, go to work as a soldier with great satisfaction and wait for promotion.

In short, today he is no longer the Hong Yanwu he was in the past who had no self-esteem and only wanted to be comfortable. Although fate still locked his footsteps, it could not lock his heart of seeking justice. If his and Chen Liquan's futures were ruined because of Gao Ming, then this kid wouldn't even think about having a good life!

Justice! Yes! We must seek justice!

The more I think about it, the more my heart hurts. Gao Ming's face keeps wandering before my eyes. Hong Yanwu felt that it would be difficult to fall asleep again, so he simply lit a cigarette in the darkness. And as the cigarette **** flickered and smoke curled up, his mind fell into rapid calculations.

With the "Old Ghost" as a guarantee, and the money promised by "Bacha" and "Little Landlord", there should be no more problems, so I just have enough time to deal with this kid these days.

But...his father is an official after all. He is not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. Otherwise, just don't tell Quanzi. This way, even if something happens, he will not be implicated.

Hey, Quanzi is also Taishan. What if I really beat that kid? That’s too cheap for him!

Hmph, it’s still the same sentence, anyone who dares to mess with me will lose their skin even if they die...

Early the next morning, Hong Yanwu, who had already made up his mind, never mentioned a word about Gao Ming to Chen Liquan.

Chen Liquan thought that Hong Yanwu was over the matter in his mind, and was afraid that it would make him unhappy if he brought it up again, so he didn't dare to ask again.

But Chen Liquan did not expect that just after he went to work, Hong Yanwu walked out of the house and began to unilaterally prepare to settle the score with Gao Ming.

But this time, he did not plan to use violent means, but chose to learn from Gao Ming and use some "underhanded tricks" to scheme against people.

Because in Hong Yanwu's view, since Gao Ming had schemed against him to the point where he couldn't even tell the truth even though he suffered a huge loss, then he naturally had to let him taste the feeling of having to swallow his teeth alive even after his teeth were broken. .

So in order to achieve this goal, he quickly started doing several things according to his plan.

First of all, he tried to find out Gao Ming's daily activities.

Then, he asked Fang Ting to prescribe some medicine, and asked Song Guofu to borrow something.

Finally, he asked his "little wife", his former subordinate, to help him with a few things. The first was to find a place to work, the second was to find someone, and the third was to get him a tricycle...

Two days later, after all these things were implemented one by one, a hunting trap was quietly laid, just waiting for Gao Ming, the prey, to get in and fall into the trap.
