Chapter 932: How Can I Swallow This Anger
Chen family's eldest daughter-in-law, Miao Xiaohe, heard the newcomer's words: "What? Where is he? Who did he get into a fight with?"
While asking, she also wiped her hands on her apron.
The newcomer was panting unevenly: "Right in the east of the city. I was there on business today, and just as I was about to leave, I happened to see him fighting someone. Mainly, he was no match for that person. I had to run back to tell you. You should hurry over and check; don't let anything happen."
Hearing this, Miao Xiaohe was both anxious and furious. The New Year was almost here, and her sister-in-law was still in confinement. If her brother-in-law got into trouble, how could they possibly spend the New Year?
As she turned and ran toward the backyard, she also shouted to the person behind her: "Auntie Jiang, wait a moment. I'll go get Weidong right away. Please tell him the specific location."
Chen Weidong, who was attending to his own grandfather in the backyard, heard the commotion and came out of the house just then: "Xiaohe, what's wrong?"
Miao Xiaohe, in her panic, didn't lower her voice: "Weiping got into a fight with someone in the east of the city, and he's no match for the other person. Auntie Jiang happened to see it, and she rushed back in a panic to bring us the news."
Hearing this, Chen Weidong shared his wife's thoughts and said angrily: "He's determined to tear this family apart before he stops."
Saying this, he walked outside.
Miao Xiaohe, frightened, quickly grabbed him: "You absolutely cannot go there alone. You must first go tell Dad, and then you two should go together."
Seeing his wife's worried and pleading expression, Chen Weidong nodded: "I understand."
Seeing the messenger standing in the front courtyard, he said: "Auntie Jiang, tell me the exact location."
Auntie Jiang pointed in a direction and gestured: "Right near the city entrance. There's a primary school nearby. The place where they are fighting is just west of the primary school. You'll hear the commotion as soon as you get there."
Chen Weidong thought for a moment; that direction happened to pass the Supply and Marketing Cooperative. He shouted to his wife: "Xiaohe, I'll go find Dad right now, and then we'll go together. Don't worry."
As soon as he stepped out of his own gate, he happened to see Little Li still standing there: "Little Li, quick, hurry back to your unit."
Little Li had naturally heard their conversation and naturally wanted to go see the commotion. Without a second thought, he picked up the hand crank and started the engine.
Although it was bitterly cold, the vehicle had only just stopped here a short while ago, so starting it required no effort at all.
Little Li jumped nimbly onto the vehicle: "Comrade Weiping, hold on tight. We're leaving now."
What Chen Weidong didn't expect was that when he arrived at the Supply and Marketing Cooperative, the gatekeeper told him someone had come to call his father, Chen Jiefang.
Chen Weiping turned and went back to Little Li's tractor: "Comrade Little Li, the matter is urgent. Please drive me to the place where Weiping got off."
Little Li glanced at the old gatekeeper, saw no reaction from him, and nodded before getting into the vehicle.
He had naturally heard the woman mention the area beside the primary school, so he drove straight there.
From a distance, he saw a large crowd gathered over there.
As they approached, they heard Chen Jiefang's voice: "Weiping, calm down."
Chen Weiping, however, disregarded everything and still tried to rush over there: "How can you expect me to be calm? That wretch dares to betray me! No, that wretch has been playing me all along. Someone warned me before, but I was like my heart was stuffed with lard and simply wouldn't believe it. Now I even heard her say the child she bore belongs to that man. How can I swallow this anger?"
Hearing his son's words, how could Chen Jiefang not be angry? But with so many people watching, even if his son rushed up, he couldn't defeat the other party. Why insist on sending him to be a punching bag? "Listen to me. We don't do things that hurt a thousand others while costing us eight hundred ourselves. Not to mention their martial ability is superior to yours. Just report this to the police; there's no need to dirty your own hands."
