Chapter 780 Asking For An Explanation
Chapter 780 Asking For An Explanation
Wang Qin leaned against the door frame for a long time before she regained her senses. Could it be that Qiao Tian really did this?
Wang Qin entered the house and questioned Qiao Tian, "Tell me, what exactly is going on? Did you fight with others, or did you do what Qiao Mei said? That you bullied her sister!"
Qiao Tian sat at the edge of the brick bed and did not dare to make a sound. He did not expect Qiao Mei to have such a bad temper, nor did he expect this matter to be discovered.
Wang Qin only had one son and a very young daughter who still needed to be taken care of. If her son was really sent to jail by Qiao Mei, she would have no hope for the rest of her life.
She must hang on for now. Wang Qin took out two woven bags from the storeroom and used them to cover the hole left by the broken window. Halfway through, she started crying. She missed Qiao Gui and having him around.
If Qiao Gui was at home, he would definitely not let them suffer like this. Now that there was no man at home, there was no one to fix the window. Wang Qin squatted on the ground and cried aggrievedly.
When Qiao Tian heard Wang Qin crying, he put on his pants and walked out of the house. He said timidly, "Mom… it's eldest uncle's Qiao Feng who asked me to do this…"
Qiao Zhuang did not have many grandchildren. The eldest son, Qiao Fu, first had a daughter and then a son. Qiao Feng had grown up by Qiao Zhuang's side and his temper and personality were very similar to Qiao Zhuang.
The boy often ordered Liu Ying around. Liu Ying did not like this son of hers very much and she gradually stopped caring about him.
Qiao Gui also had a son and a daughter, but his son was the older of the two children and was named Qiao Tian.
"Go back inside. It's so cold outside. I'll come in and deal with you later!" Wang Qin said.
After covering up the window, Wang Qin took a few blankets and went into the other room. Although it was a little damp, it was still habitable.
When she had settled everything, Wang Qin held back her temper and looked at Qiao Tian as she asked, "Tell me the truth, are you the one who did this?"
Qiao Tian confessed everything. He often bullied others in school. Now that Qiao Gui was in prison, the other children called him the son of a murderer and said that he was a scourge. He was very angry and wanted to teach these children a lesson.
During that time, Qiao Feng came looking for him. Qiao Feng hated Qiao Mei for causing Qiao Fu's legs to be amputated. Now that his elder sister was gone and his father was disabled, he only had his grandfather left.
Instead of being bullied by others, it was better to teach them a lesson. Therefore, Qiao Feng targeted Zhang Qin and convinced Qiao Tian to hurt her. Originally, Qiao Tian just wanted to teach her a lesson and did not intend to endanger her life. What he did not know was that Qiao Feng had been lying in ambush at that place and came out to push Zhang Qin down the slope.
At that time, Qiao Tian was terribly frightened when he saw Zhang Qin motionless. He thought that she was dead and he quickly returned to school. He was jittery for the rest of the day until he could make it home from school.
"It's fine. You just brought Zhang Qin into the mountain. You're not the one who did it. Don't be afraid." Wang Qin hugged Qiao Tian and comforted him.
She did not expect Qiao Feng to be like Qiao Fu, going around bewitching others to do bad things. Back then, Qiao Fu had bewitched Qiao Gui into going along to harm Qiao Mei. Now, it was Qiao Feng's turn to harm her son.
"Stay at home. I'll go and ask them for an explanation. You stay at home and keep an eye on your sister," Wang Qin said.
Qiao Tian lay in bed obediently and watched Wang Qin leave the house to look for Qiao Zhuang. At this moment, Qiao Zhuang and the others were still eating and listening to the radio, not realizing that something had happened to their family.
When Qiao Zhuang heard that Zhang Qin had met with an accident, he even specially opened a bottle of liquor. He thought that it was retribution from the heavens that caused Qiao Mei's family to face trouble and he was overjoyed.
"Are you eating in the house?" Wang Qin said sarcastically as she entered the house.
Qiao Zhuang did not even look at Wang Qin and continued eating. Jiang Ye said politely, "Second sister-in-law, you're here. Come and sit down to eat."
Jiang Ye stood up to get the cutlery but was stopped by Wang Qin.
"I'm not here to eat. I'm here to ask Qiao Feng what he said to my son and what he asked my son to do," Wang Qin said.
Qiao Fu immediately flew into a rage. He pointed at Wang Qin and roared, "What's wrong with you again! Father is quite happy today and you insist on coming here to find trouble!"
