Just as she was hiding in her room feeling extremely sad, suddenly, there was a fierce knock on the door outside the yard, followed by the sound of a child's babyish voice, one after another...

"Grandma Zhang, Grandma Zhang, we are here to see you, please open the door quickly."

Old Mrs. Zhang quickly wiped away her tears. At this moment, she had to remain calm and pretend nothing had happened. She could not show even a little sadness, lest the murderer notice and kill her to silence her, and her son would have died in vain.

She insisted that I find a way to report to the authorities and avenge her son.

"Hey, here we come!"

She tremblingly picked up the crutch beside her, suppressed the great sadness in her heart, pretended to be normal, and walked out with a blank expression.

At this time, Mr. Zhang and his servants outside were also startled when they heard a knock on the door.

I don't dare to open the door, otherwise my identity will be exposed.

"Son! Someone is knocking on the door, why don't you open it? How rude! Go open the door quickly."

"This..." Mr. Zhang was in a dilemma. If he really went to open the door, and the other party was an acquaintance and recognized that he was not Zhang Sen, wouldn't his identity be exposed?

"Are you deaf? You don't listen to me? No wonder you are almost 40 years old and still can't find a wife. You don't understand the ways of the world." Old Lady Zhang raised her cane and hit him hard. Instantly, Mr. Zhang's head was broken and bleeding...

"You old woman, you dare to hit me?" He had a fierce look in his eyes. Just when he was about to kill Old Lady Zhang, he was stopped by the servant. He shook his head gently and whispered...

"Master, a little impatience can ruin a big plan. We still have to live here. If you kill her, no one will protect us."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Zhang's murderous intent was gone.

Forget it, just be patient for a while. When he leaves Youzhou City one day, he will definitely kill this damn old woman.

How dare you beat and kill him?

Old Lady Zhang was still cursing...

"Sen'er, you are such an unfilial son. You even dare to scold your mother, right? You were not like this before. No matter how your mother beat and scolded you, you never dared to say anything disobedient. What happened to you today? Why do you seem to become like a human being?"

Mr. Zhang suppressed his anger and said with a forced smile...

"Mom, it's all your fault. You hit me too hard and made me bleed. Look for yourself."

After saying this, he took Old Lady Zhang's hand and touched his bloody forehead.

Old Mrs. Zhang said with a face full of self-blame, "Oh my, it's all my fault that I was blind and didn't know the severity of the situation. I accidentally hurt you. Sen'er, the pain is in your body, but it hurts my heart. You are my only son, and I have always loved you the most. You know that. If I wasn't blind, how could I have hurt you? Hurry up and get the medicated oil to rub it on, otherwise, it will get infected and it will be terrible."

"Go quickly, go quickly."

As she was speaking, her crutch accidentally tripped Mr. Zhang, causing him to fall to the ground with a thud. His mouth was bleeding and he was grimacing in pain.

"You old woman, did you do this on purpose?"

Old Lady Zhang seemed to be unaware of what she had done. She said, "Sen'er, didn't I tell you? I didn't mean it. Don't blame me. I raised you from childhood with all my hard work. Was it easy?"

"You are so cruel." Mr. Zhang got up and tried to find some medicated oil to apply to the wound.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the knocking on the door outside became even louder...

"Grandma Zhang, open the door, open the door quickly, we are here to see you."

"Sen'er? Don't worry about it. Just go and apply the medicine. I'll go open the door." After saying this, Old Lady Zhang walked out tremblingly, leaning on her crutches.

Mr. Zhang wanted to run forward to stop them.

The servant stopped him again, shook his head gently, and whispered...

"Master, let her go. Otherwise, the people outside will keep knocking on the door, which will arouse suspicion. It will be fine as long as we don't show up and let the old woman deal with it."

"Well, what you said makes sense." Mr. Zhang nodded, and the two men hid quietly.

As for Old Lady Zhang, she walked out of the yard with a cane in fear. She was relieved to find that the villain didn't follow her. It seemed that he didn't know that she had exposed his conspiracy. With shaking hands, she opened the door...

"Squeak!"

The moment the door opened, I couldn't help but let the tears flow down my cheeks.

She finally escaped from the clutches of the murderer.

Huo Dong and Huo Xi were standing outside the door with a big carp in their hands. When they saw Old Lady Zhang opening the door, they smiled and said...

"Grandma Zhang, look, what have we brought for you."

After saying that, he put the fish in her hand and let her touch it.

Old Mrs. Zhang opened her toothless mouth and smiled with tears in her eyes: "Oh hey, it's a fish, Xiaodong, you are so thoughtful, thinking about an old woman like me every day."

It was not until this time that the two brothers realized something was wrong. Grandma Zhang was fine, so why was she crying?

They were just about to ask Grandma Zhang what happened and why she was so sad?

Mrs. Zhang immediately raised her voice and said loudly...

"Xiaodong, didn't you promise to take grandma to a restaurant for a delicious meal yesterday?"

"Huh?" Huo Dong was confused. When did he agree to take Grandma Zhang to a restaurant to eat delicious food?

Old Mrs. Zhang grabbed his hand and squeezed it hard.

Huo Dong reacted and said loudly...

"Yes, so I came here with my third brother today to take you to eat delicious food."

Old Lady Zhang couldn't wait to walk out of the yard with her cane and said, "Let's go."

The Huo Dong brothers looked at each other. They knew that something must have happened to Grandma Zhang, otherwise she wouldn't have behaved so abnormally.

Huo Dong held up the fish in his hand and asked, "Grandma Zhang, what should we do with this fish?"

Old Mrs. Zhang was worried that the two children would be in trouble after entering, so she quickly said, "Just hang it at the door, Sen'er will take care of it later."

After she finished speaking, she deliberately opened her throat and shouted loudly inside...

"Sen'er, Xiaodong has sent some fish to our house and is hanging it at the door. Come out and take care of it."

inside the house.

When Mr. Zhang and his servants heard that Old Lady Zhang was about to go out, they were extremely anxious and wanted to go out to stop her, but they were afraid of exposing their true identities and did not dare to act rashly.

Mr. Zhang cursed fiercely in a low voice, then raised his voice and answered loudly: "Mother, I understand. I will take care of the fish after I take care of the wound."

When Huo Dong heard his voice, he was stunned. He was used to hearing Uncle Zhang's voice, but this voice was obviously not Uncle Zhang's. What was going on?

"Grandma, he is not Uncle Zhang." He lowered his voice and whispered.

"Shh, don't say anything, let's go quickly." At this time, Old Mrs. Zhang's heart was in her throat. She was afraid that she would be pulled back by the two murderers in the house. That would be terrible.

She usually walked slowly with a cane, but now that she was nervous, she didn't even use the cane. Holding Huo Dong in one hand and Huo Xi in the other, she walked down the street with quick steps.

That speed is like that of a young person.

My hands and feet no longer shake.

Huo Dong and Huo Xi were both dumbfounded.

Is Grandma Zhang regaining her youth?

After walking for about dozens of meters, the street was crowded with people and cars. Only at this time did Old Mrs. Zhang breathe a sigh of relief. She couldn't help but burst into tears and suddenly collapsed to the ground.

Obviously, I was just pretending to be strong.

Huo Dong and Huo Xi were shocked and asked quickly, "Grandma Zhang, what's wrong with you? What happened?"

Old Mrs. Zhang told the story of her son's murder.

Huo Dong and Huo Xi had heard about Mr. Zhang Shanren a long time ago.

He also knew that Zhang Sen had worked in the Zhang Mansion.

Now the city gates are closed and the whole city is looking for Mr. Zhang Shanren.

Maybe Mr. Zhang couldn't escape from Youzhou City, so he had to hide in Grandma Zhang's house.

Huo Dong comforted her, "Grandma Zhang, don't be so sad. You can't see, maybe you guessed wrong, maybe Uncle Zhang is still alive."

Old Lady Zhang shook her head and said with a sad face...

"No. I know Sen'er must have been killed because I heard them digging a hole in the yard. Although I am blind, I have very good ears."

Huo Dong: "Grandma Zhang, tell us what you want to do, and we will help you do it."

Old Lady Zhang said with great hatred: "I will report them to the authorities and have them arrested. I want to avenge my son."

"Okay, we'll take you to find Uncle Long."

Just as the Huo Dong brothers were supporting Old Lady Zhang and preparing to walk towards the government office, they suddenly became aware that someone was following them.

Huo Dong lowered his voice and whispered, "Grandma Zhang, this is bad. We are being followed. Are they the two murderers who live in your house?"

Mrs. Zhang stopped immediately and whispered...

"In order not to alert the enemy, let's not expose it for the time being. Let's go to the restaurant to eat."

She was worried that Mr. Zhang would run away after finding out that he was exposed, and then she would not be able to avenge her son. So, she decided not to report to the government for the time being and to keep them calm first.

Huo Dong: "Well, okay, we will listen to you."

Afterwards, the three of them went into a nearby restaurant to eat.

Not far behind.

Mr. Zhang was wearing a bamboo hat and looking at their backs with a grim look in his eyes.

He thought the truth had been revealed.

Now it seems that the old woman really didn't see through his identity.

Servant: "Master, what do you think? Are we going to run away?"

Mr. Zhang glanced around tightly and found many soldiers patrolling the streets. He said viciously, "Run away, why bother? Do we need to kill Zhang Sen and take his place and hide here?"

"Let's go back to Zhang's house."

The servant glanced in the direction of the restaurant and asked, "Where's the old lady?"

Mr. Zhang: "Didn't she go to eat with the two little ghosts? Anyway, she didn't see through us, so let her be."

The two men were afraid of exposing their identities, so they quietly hid back in Zhang's house.

Restaurant, private room on the second floor.

Huo Dong looked down from the window and saw that the people following them had left. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, turned around and said to Old Lady Si...

"Grandma Zhang, they're gone."

Old Lady Si nodded, tears streaming down her cheeks. She cried and said...

"My poor son, he hasn't even got married yet, and he was murdered like this. My heart as an old woman is so broken, wuwuwu..."
