"Back then, you and Brother Han Niu were chopping wood in the mountains when you saw me running, covered in blood. You thought I was injured."
Mrs. Hong was lost in her memories.
At that time, her mother had hidden her under a corpse, and she was drenched in blood from the body that had been hacked with wild knives.
Recalling it now, the fear still spread through her entire being.
She didn't even know where she had found the courage to run out.
"When you realized I wasn't injured, you and Brother Han Niu gave me steamed buns to eat and water to drink," Mrs. Hong said with tears in her eyes. "You two took me back to Black Dragon Village and hid me in Brother Han Niu's woodshed."
Tong Huaqiong shivered at the mention of Han Niu, who was Tong Dajiao's childhood friend.
On the day Tong Dajiao got married, he disappeared.
Later, his mother and sister left Black Dragon Village with him.
