Quick travel to save a miserable life

Chapter 154 The concubine 24

Now that the family has a sum of money coming into their account, they can no longer shirk visiting Wang Xiuyuan in prison.

Although Ziming didn't say anything in the past two days, Lin Hui could tell what he was thinking from the several times he hesitated to speak.

So, two days later, Lin Hui took her two children and went to prison again.

As usual, they checked the cell leader again and stuffed them with a dime of money. After checking what they had brought with them, the cell leader let them in.

The Wang Xiuyuan I saw this time was in worse condition than last time. He was extremely thin, with disheveled hair and a long beard. His exposed face and hands were all black and chapped. He looked no different from a beggar on the street. different.

When the three of them, mother and son, arrived, Wang Xiuyuan was leaning on the corner of his cell, his eyes dull and his face dull.

Wang Ziming took the lead and shouted: "Father!"

Wang Xiuyuan seemed not to hear and had no reaction.

Wang Ziming came closer again, leaned against the fence of the cell and shouted again in a louder voice: "Father, my mother, my sister and I are here to see you!"

But he still had the same movements and expressions, without any change.

Until Lin Hui stepped forward and shouted softly: "Ms. sir, the children and I are here to see you!"

I saw Wang Xiuyuan's body stiffened slightly and his eyelids moved slightly, but the amplitude was so small that if Lin Hui hadn't had sharp eyes, he might not have been able to detect it.

However, the other parts of his body did not move, and he still had the same expression.

Wang Ziming couldn't help but burst into tears. How could his father, who he always admired and was so talented, become like this!

Lin Hui had no choice but to cooperate and wipe her tears. Only Yao Niang, who had a calm face, did not show any emotion at all.

The guard saw the two mothers crying to each other and came over to persuade them: "It's useless. Not long after you came last time, he has become like this. He stays blank all day long, doesn't talk, and doesn't move very much. If he hadn't been here every day, he would be like this." He can still eat, but he is probably as good as dead, and he doesn’t know anything anymore, so you are just looking at me for nothing!"

Lin Hui had no choice but to pass the things she brought in to him. This time she brought him not only food but also cotton-padded clothes.

It was already winter, and Wang Xiuyuan was still wearing a jacket. Lin Hui gave the guard some money and asked him to put on the clothes he brought from home when he went in to deliver food.

After the guard took the money, he was naturally happy for this trivial matter and readily agreed.

The family of three returned home feeling a little disappointed.

In order to prevent Wang Ziming from having time to think, Lin Hui assigned him a lot of work as soon as he returned, such as cleaning the main room again, cleaning the kitchen thoroughly, and making lunch.

Lin Hui went to embroidery. After all, this was her first cooperation with Jinxiuzhuang. She had to maintain a high standard and work attentively to ensure excellent finished products so that future works could have good prices.

Just like that, more than ten days later, a kind-hearted neighbor suddenly came over and told Lin Hui that the county government had posted a notice that an Autumn Judgment would be held at the execution ground in three days. Four people were to be beheaded, and Wang Xiuyuan In it.

In front of her neighbor Sister-in-law Zhou and looking at her sympathetic eyes, Lin Hui had to squeeze out a few tears after hearing the news, while Wang Ziming's tears kept spinning in her eyes.

After seeing Sister Zhou off, Wang Ziming couldn't bear it anymore and lay in Lin Hui's arms and cried loudly.

Sister-in-law Zhou also reminded them to give money to the executioner in advance so that he could leave more quickly and less painfully.

Even if enough money is stuffed, the skin on the neck and body of the prisoner may not be completely disconnected after execution, which means that the head and body are not separated, keeping the body intact.

Lin Hui said that she didn't want to spend this money, but looking at Wang Ziming's pleading eyes, she couldn't help but feel a little soft. Well, people are going to die, and the money for the coffin is the last payment. Don't be instigative at this time and leave a knot in the child's heart for a lifetime.

So, after Lin Hui inquired about the market situation, she took out most of her money and bribed the executioner Fang Er.

Different from Lin Hui's image of a tall executioner, Fang Er turned out to be a lean man with a short stature.

Fang Er's beheading skills were inherited from his family. His ancestors had been eating this bowl of rice since his great-grandfather. He was not surprised when he heard Lin Hui's request.

He was engaged in the job of beheading, so few people interacted with him on weekdays, and it was only at this time of year that family members of prisoners came to ask for help.

He accepted the money and didn't say much. He just said "I understand" and that was it.

Lin Hui wasn't worried that he would take the money and stop doing anything. After all, what he was doing was not a one-time deal. For the sake of the future "business", he would definitely keep his word.

After leaving Fang Er's house, Lin Hui went to the county government office of Li Wu and asked him to sew up Wang Xiuyuan's body after the execution, connect the head and body, and make it look better when buried.

When Lin Hui returned home from her work, she saw Wang Ziming looking at her expectantly. Lin Hui let out a sigh of relief and said, "Everything has been arranged. I have made arrangements for the executioner and the prisoner. I will definitely let your father do it." Walking neatly and decently.”

Wang Ziming breathed a sigh of relief and looked at his mother gratefully.

He had been smart since he was a child, and he knew that his father was only gentle to his mother on the surface, but in fact he didn't have much respect or love. His grandmother was also very picky about his mother, but his mother had always been docile and had no dissatisfaction.

Previously, Wang Ziming admired his father wholeheartedly and respected his grandmother. These were commonplace and accustomed to him. In addition, his mother worked in embroidery all year round and was not good at speaking. Although she was the mainstay of the family's income, she did not have much of a presence in the family, so he did not take it to heart.

It's just that since something happened to his family, his grandmother and his father had accidents one after another. After all, he is still just a child. He is inevitably frightened and helpless. He wants to find someone to trust and rely on, and this person is only his mother.

During this period of time, it was his mother who supported the family and gave him warmth and confidence, keeping him from falling into despair.

His mother taught him many things, not just the seemingly tedious housework. In the process of her mother teaching him, he also understood many truths that were not found in books, and also increased his understanding of his mother.

At the same time, he realized more deeply how ignorant and ignorant he was in the past, and how he had such indifference and disgust towards his mother and sister!

In fact, the mother is so innocent, and the sister has done something wrong, so she has to bear the contempt and white eyes from her relatives!

It's just that his grandmother has passed away and his father is about to pass away, so he can't say anything wrong with them anymore, but he secretly made up his mind that from now on he must honor his mother, love his sister, and support the family. Be the support of mother and sister!
