Chapter 1672: Chapter 1082: Heroine of the Republic 56

An Yi was speechless; how could such a thing happen even now?

"Mr. Qin didn’t return home because he was sacrificed? If he were sacrificed, there would be someone specifically visiting,"

"He just went missing for two years, and it’s not even missing; that’s just what they say publicly. I heard he was on a mission, but it’s hard to explain to the family. Who knows how the rumor spread that he was sacrificed? He hasn’t come back in two years, and his son changed his name to something like Wang Congming. It’s such an awful name, like they’re afraid people don’t know his son’s a fool."

"The child is a fool?"

The village chief’s wife nodded: "More than just a fool. He seems a bit abnormal. He used to be quite smart. But after he fought his grandfather once, he crippled him. His mother tried to stop it, but she ended up bleeding a lot. It was terrifying, no one knows what got hurt. Though his grandfather wasn’t a good person when he was young, it’s not the place for the grandson to punish him. Now her son avoids his mom, and such a good family is ruined, basically scattered."

"What about the child’s Grandma?" Maybe it was because she interacted with so many people, she felt this sentence revealed too much information.

"Grandma passed away long ago...," she thought she had guessed the root of the problem, but hoped she was overthinking it.

Since An Yi was at home resting for a day, the village chief’s wife didn’t want to disturb her, so after saying a few words, she left. An Yi treated this matter as a farce and didn’t care about it. But who knew, when she went to work on Monday, a teacher in the office, who happened to live in Qinjiatun, informed her of the follow-up.

The boy wasn’t missing; he was murdered; the murderer was his own grandfather.

When the child’s mom learned the truth, she stabbed the old man pretending to be paralyzed to death on the spot.

Indeed, the old man was faking paralysis to have the daughter-in-law serve him well. The boy beat up the old man because he repeatedly caught his grandfather bullying his mom, but she kept it suppressed to avoid disgrace, accumulating a lot of resentment over time, which finally broke after the old man molested someone drunk.

This old man was not a good person when young. Qin Zheng could serve in the military because he was just an adopted child, a child of a family who died out in the village. During the war, many died, and many were displaced. The old man’s wife couldn’t bear children, so he would often fool around outside but still couldn’t father a son.

Both Qin Zheng’s family and theirs are surnamed Qin, and everyone in the village were neighbors. When Qin Zheng became an orphan at five, he was adopted by Wang Congming’s Grandma after being persuaded by the village committee. Still, even being adopted, he was often beaten. At twelve, his mother tearfully sent him away to serve in the army, wondering if he’d survive into adulthood if he stayed.

When he came back on leave at twenty, he married the Wang Family’s daughter. After she got pregnant, he returned to the army, coming back for only a few days each year. When Wang Congming was seven or eight, Grandma passed away, reportedly pushed down by the old man and died from a head injury.

After his wife died, the old man changed overnight. Instead of hitting people, he began to verbally abuse them. If the daughter-in-law did something slightly wrong, she would be scolded. It’s said Wang Congming’s mother wept daily, but women of this era tend to endure silently. Little did she know her patience would lead to so many troubles later.

The biological grandfather took advantage of the darkness and, when no one noticed, lured the grandson to carry him to a certain place under the guise of negotiation. Waiting for the grandson to take him to the back mountain, he seized the opportunity to push him off, returning home acting like nothing happened, bullying the daughter-in-law, so no one would disrupt his good times. From the outsider’s perspective, he pretended to be paralyzed, and the daughter-in-law took care of him without complaint.

But unexpectedly so, the son returned, and as soon as he came back, he started to search for his son, mobilizing all forces to find him. Fearing exposure, the old man sneaked out under the cover of night to check the place where Wang Congming was buried. He got caught by his son, who had investigative skills.

Later, the truth came out. The daughter-in-law couldn’t handle the shock, and after killing the old man, she committed suicide by ramming into a wall. Overnight, Qin Zheng lost three family members.

This incident escalated because Old Man Qin was perverted and shameless, women bore humiliation for face, the child detested the home for his mom, Qin Zheng served the country and was rarely home. Whose fault is it?
