1247 I Am Back
Unfortunately, Ma Meng did not have much say in this family and could only agree with Chu Ju’s decision. As long as the matter did not involve her, she would usually turn a blind eye.
“Hmph! If not for that b*tch back then! I would have gotten my eldest grandson long ago! The more I think about it, the angrier I get! I can’t wait to tear her into pieces!” Chu Ju said resentfully.
At that time, when Shen Na was still in emergency care in the hospital, there was only He Mei around to tell Chu Ju about what happened. He Mei had conveniently pushed all the responsibility to Qian’e and made her take all the blame regardless of whether she was actually the culprit or not. This had also led to Chu Ju hating Qian’e very much.
In the entire Ma family, Ma Meng was the only sensible person. Chu Ju had thrown her into a childcare facility since she was young and Chu Ju had not personally taken care of her for even one day. Therefore, she always looked out of place in the Ma family.
She really did not want to listen to what Chu Ju was saying and decided to return to her own room with her things.
Originally, they lived in a big villa. They each had their own room and could even choose a different room to sleep in every day. After Ma San and Shen Na divorced, they did not enjoy such a privilege anymore. Fortunately, Chu Ju had a backup plan. When Ma San and Shen Na were still together, she had siphoned away a lot of the Shen family’s funds and bought this big three-bedroom house. This was the only reason why they were not in dire straits at the moment.
It was a fact that Chu Ju had some foresight when it came to taking advantage of others.
“You wretched girl! Why is it so difficult for me to talk to you! Your elder brother is coming back tonight! Don’t forget to open the door for him, do you understand!” Chu Ju complained.
“Got it,” Ma Meng replied quickly.
At that time, Ma San had been sent to prison but he ended up being rescued for some reason. However, the conditions for his rescue were very strange. That person asked Ma San to leave the capital overnight to live somewhere else. He was not allowed to leave his new location without a letter from the person who rescued him. He was told that if it was discovered that he left on his own accord, he would be hunted down and killed.
During this era, it was not unheard of for people to die under mysterious circumstances. If a person was murdered and the dead body thrown into the mountains, and then subsequently declared to have been killed by wolves or tigers during the night, no one would suspect anything.
Recently, someone had sent a letter to Ma San and he was given permission to return to the capital. From the beginning to the end, he did not know who the person who helped him was. Perhaps this person had nothing better to do and just wanted to have some fun.
However, Ma San was not going to come back and do nothing. He wanted revenge! He wanted to take revenge on He Mei, make Shen Na pay the price and for Qian’e to die!
If not for Qian’e and He Mei scheming against him, he would not have lost his wife and family. It was all the fault of these two people! Even if he could live a good life in the future by keeping his head down, he would still be a good-for-nothing. He might as well take revenge and vent all the resentment in his heart.
At night, Ma San returned home on time. Chu Ju had prepared a table full of dishes to welcome him home. As soon as he entered, Chu Ju hugged him tightly and said, “My son! You’re finally back! I miss you so much! Why are you only back now! Do you know how much we’ve suffered!”
Ma Meng looked at the thin and dirty Ma San and then at the plump and healthy Chu Ju. She did not know who was the one who had suffered.
“I’m back, Mom. Our family is finally reunited. We won’t be separated again in the future!” Ma San said agitatedly.
“Come! Come and eat. I’ve made all your favorite dishes!” Chu Ju quickly led Ma San to the dining table. During the meal, the two of them chatted happily. Ma San even related to them what had happened to him during this period of time.
Not only had he learned how to cook, but he also learned how to chop firewood and do farming. These were all things that he had been forced to learn. At first, he felt that it was very boring, but when he knew that he could earn more money by doing more, Ma San worked very hard. At the very least, he had lived life positively for a while.
“My son, you’ve suffered. I never expect you to be living such a life! If your father comes back and sees you like this, he definitely won’t let those people off!” Chu Ju said angrily.
Ma San’s father used to run a small business in the capital, but after Ma San’s incident, his reputation was tarnished. No one was willing to do business with Ma San’s father, so he had no choice but to go elsewhere to earn a living. However, he also encountered many difficulties as it was not so easy to earn money in an unfamiliar location.
