Liu Chungeng listened quietly. He pretended to be surprised but he sneered in his heart.

The whole thing about him getting married was all lies.

"Then mom, please take out the money and save your brother!"

Liu Chungeng was more worried about his brother's safety than the old widow: "The kidnappers only gave us two days. I'm afraid if it's too late, you won't be able to see your brother."

"Oh, I still have some money. Mom, you can also take out your money and we can pool it together. We should be able to get another 200,000 yuan."

"This way my brother will be saved."

The old widow looked at her eldest son with some emotion and said, "Chun Geng, I thought you didn't like your brother."

"Mom," Liu Chungeng said with a serious face, "After all, he is my brother. Now that he is in danger, I will not ignore him no matter what."

"Okay..." The old widow wiped the tears from her eyes with her sleeves and said, "You are my good son. Don't worry, after rescuing your brother, I will find you a good wife."

So the old widow took out the money and gave it to Liu Chungeng.

The anxious old widow waited and waited and finally her eldest son came back.

The old widow ran over from a distance. She pulled her eldest son's clothes and looked behind him anxiously and asked, "How is it? Is your brother back, or has he already gone home?"

"Mom..." Liu Chungeng said with an ugly face: "I was robbed, and the money was never delivered!"

The old widow was stunned. After a long while, she still couldn't believe it and said, "How is it possible?!"

"Did anyone know you had the money with you? Did the kidnappers set up an ambush in advance? They didn't want to let your brother go, so they intercepted the money?"

The more the old widow thought about it, the more she thought this was possible. She hurriedly asked, "Have you been to the place where the kidnappers said they were going to make the deal?"

Liu Chungeng said irritably: "I went there, but there was no one there!"

He didn't know how things turned out like this. He was halfway there with the money when he was suddenly knocked unconscious. When he woke up, the money was gone.

No matter how I think about it, it seems like it was premeditated. Could it be that, as his mother said, those two guys were trying to rob each other?

Otherwise, he couldn't think of anyone else who would know that he was carrying money and ambush him there in advance.

Just when the mother and son were puzzled and at a loss, the sound of sirens gradually approached from a distance.

This kind of sound is rarely heard in this small mountain village, and many people ran out to check what was going on.

The police car stopped at the entrance of the village, and a policeman got out to inquire about Liu Chungeng's address.

Both the mother and son standing on the street had a bad feeling.

"Spring plowing!" The lady who showed the police the way also shouted to them: "The police comrades are looking for you, come quickly."

Liu Chungeng stood there motionlessly, his feet felt as if they were filled with lead and so heavy that he could not move a step.

As the police slowly approached, the fear on his face became more and more intense.

"Are you Liu Chungeng?" The dignified policeman glanced sharply at the seemingly honest man in front of him.

"Liu Chungeng, you are suspected of a kidnapping case. Please come with us."

After getting a positive answer, the policeman took out handcuffs. The bright light flashed in Liu Chungeng's eyes, bringing him back to his senses from his daze.

“No…” Liu Chungeng looked at the handcuffs in horror and backed away: “It’s none of my business… I didn’t kidnap…”

Liu Chungeng panicked and turned to run. Two policemen rushed over, caught up with Liu Chungeng, and pinned him to the ground. The policemen swiftly put the silver bracelet on his wrist.

Everyone around them widened their eyes in shock, Liu Chungeng struggled desperately, and the old widow never recovered from the incident.

It was not until Liu Chungeng was caught by the police and passed by her and grabbed her clothes that she stared at her eldest son in disbelief and asked, "You kidnapped your brother?!"

"Mom..." Liu Chungeng knew that he had no way to defend himself. He knelt in front of his mother, desperately holding her and begging, "Mom, I know I was wrong... Mom, I don't want to go to jail... Mom, please save me..."

"Pa!" A loud slap made Liu Chungeng's head turn away, and also made him completely quiet down.

"Why did you do this?" the old widow asked bitterly, "He's your own brother!"

Liu Chungeng didn't know whether he was irritated by the word "brother" or by his mother's slap.

He slowly let go of his mother's hand, slowly stood up, and looked at the old widow.

At this moment, there was undisguised hatred and disgust in his eyes.

"You still have the nerve to ask me why?" Liu Chungeng's ferocious face frightened the old widow so much that she took a step back.

"Have you forgotten how you cheated on my father with that old man from the Zhong family?"

"Wow..." The surrounding area exploded.

The rumors that had been put to rest have now been brought up again, and were even spread by the old widow's own son. This is really exciting!

"My father had just passed away at that time. Are you so short of men? You didn't even mind a man who was more than ten years older than you. You are really not picky."

"You two are having an affair, so let me, your son, watch over the door for you."

"You gave birth to a son and left me alone at home, and you tricked me into going out to work so that I could earn money to marry a wife."

"I'm already over 30 years old and I don't even have a wife, but your son has a house and a car and has married a wife, living in the city and enjoying a good life?"

"I am also your son. Why should you let me stay in the village alone to serve you and keep watch for you?"

"Someone proposed marriage to me, but you refused again and again. Aren't you afraid that there would be outsiders around? Aren't you afraid that you and the old man from the Zhong family wouldn't be able to have an affair?"

"No..." Facing her eldest son's questioning, the old widow explained anxiously and sadly: "Chun Geng, I did that for your own good. I just wanted to..."

She wanted her son to find someone better, so she politely declined those she didn't like. However, the longer she waited, the worse the candidates others introduced to her became, resulting in her eldest son still not being able to find a wife.

But before she could finish her words, Liu Chungeng interrupted her with a roar: "Stop quibbling!"

"You just want me to serve you for the rest of my life, and you just want to leave everything to your bastard!"

"I hate you!"

After leaving these heartless words, Liu Chungeng walked towards the police car without looking back.

The old widow cried and ran after him. In the end, the police car ruthlessly took her eldest son away, leaving the old widow crying on the ground.

The surrounding villagers sighed, but no one came forward, not even those who were on good terms with her.

Because what she did was so despicable.
