Chapter 241 Conflict
So Zhang Baojia returned home safely. After returning home, he went straight back to his room.
There was no one in the room at that time. He closed the door, lay on the bed and burst into tears. However, he stuffed a towel into his mouth, so he couldn't make any sound even though he was crying.
While crying, Zhang Baojia recalled his past with Wang Tao. He really couldn't accept that Wang Tao died like this.
What might be even more unacceptable to him was that Zhang Yu had buried Wang Tao like this, letting him die so quietly without anyone knowing.
To be honest, Zhang Baojia is a little disappointed with Zhang Yu now, but he also knows that this is Zhang Yu's protection for himself.
If Wang Tao's body appeared in public, the biggest suspect would become Zhang Baojia, and he might be arrested immediately.
It was not until noon when it was time for lunch that Zhang Baojia opened the door and went out. By this time, Zhang's mother had already prepared the meal, and Zhang Yu and his brothers had also put their bowls and chopsticks on the table, ready to eat.
Seeing him come out with red eyes, Zhang Yu just walked over and patted him on the shoulder without saying anything.
Zhang's mother also noticed that something was wrong with him, but since her son had already gone to deal with it, she didn't ask any more questions.
Instead, his younger brothers asked with concern. As Zhang Baoguo had lived with him the longest, he could be said to know Zhang Baojia best.
Zhang Baojia, the eldest brother, has always been very much like an eldest brother and is very strong. It can be said that they have been brothers for such a long time, but he has never seen Zhang Baojia cry. But now his red eyes are very strong proof that he has cried.
So Zhang Baoguo asked with concern: "Brother, what's wrong with you? Is there anything wrong?"
Before Zhang Baojia could reply, Zhang Yu said, "Baoguo, let's eat first. I scolded your elder brother just now, but he ran into the house and cried. Don't ask about it anymore. Don't mention your elder brother's sad story anymore."
The remaining brothers looked at Zhang Yu's words and shut their mouths.
Only Zhang Baoguo was hesitant to speak. Zhang Yu, as their father, usually never scolded them and only talked to them about reason. So why would he scold his eldest brother for no reason? This really puzzled him.
But seeing that his elder brother did not refute it, could it be true? This aroused Zhang Baoguo's curiosity even more, and he had to find out why his elder brother was scolded this time.
The family finished their lunch in this strange atmosphere.
After dinner, everyone cleaned up as usual.
Zhang Yu directly called Zhang Baojia out. Looking at his eldest son whose eyes were still red, Zhang Yu sighed softly and told him where Wang Tao was buried.
And he instructed: "Baojia, although I know you have a good relationship with him, it is really not appropriate to pay homage to him now. I have already burned a lot of paper money for him. I hope you can pay homage to him after this sensitive period of time."
Hearing this, Zhang Baojia nodded and said, "Dad, don't worry, I know you are doing this for my own good, I will listen to you."
"That's good, Baojia. To be honest, I don't want him to get into trouble. I wanted to take him away and find out what happened before sending him away. But I didn't expect that he would have such an accident."
This time Zhang Baojia did not answer. Zhang Yu looked at his eldest son who was very sad, and did not ask any more questions. He patted him on the shoulder and let him go back.
After Zhang Baojia left, Zhang Yu turned around and walked out. Wang Tao was already dead, but there was still a Zhou Tian in Gongshan Town, and he had to find this guy.
After Zhang Yu rushed back to Gongshan Town and reunited with Liu San, the two had a heated discussion on how to find Zhou Tian.
Zhang Baojia, who had just returned home, fell into deep thought. He recalled what had happened during this period and found it so unbelievable.
He thought about it carefully and found that the time when all this changed was after Zhang Baohua and Ma Ping'an came back. Since they came back, he noticed that something was wrong with Wang Tao.
However, he did not care too much at that time, because he had already known the news about the college entrance examination during that time. They discussed leaving together after the college entrance examination, so Zhang Baojia was immersed in joy and did not notice anything unusual about Wang Tao.
Looking back now, it seems so obvious, which makes Zhang Baojia wonder, could this matter be related to Zhang Baohua and Ma Pingan?
Then, he remembered that Zhang Yu asked him to monitor these two people, which made him perk up.
He felt deeply uneasy. He felt that Wang Tao's death must be related to these two people, and Zhang Baojia knew about the letter in Wang Tao's room.
Thinking of this, Zhang Baojia took advantage of the fact that no one was in the room and flipped through the books of Zhang Baohua and Ma Ping'an. Suddenly, a note fell out of Zhang Baohua's book.
Zhang Baojia picked it up and saw that it was not Zhang Baohua's handwriting, but Zhang Baoguo's. But why was Zhang Baoguo's note in Zhang Baohua's book?
He looked carefully at the words written on the note and found that it was a passage from a textbook. Then he put the note back into Zhang Baohua's book.
Then he opened the door and walked out. He wanted to find Zhang Baoguo and ask him if he had written that passage.
Not long after he walked out of the room, a man appeared at the door. It was Ma Ping'an.
He walked into the room and checked his things, and found traces of being flipped through. Then he found that Zhang Baohua's textbooks were also flipped through, and the top book was the one with the note. He turned to the page with the note, and a strange smile appeared on his face. If you look closely, you will find that this smile is so similar to Zhou Tian's.
He did not touch the note. Looking at the desk that was messed up by Zhang Baojia, he personally restored the textbooks, notes, and notebooks to their original state.
Not long after he recovered, Zhang Baohua appeared in the room. Seeing Ma Pingan, he asked, "Cousin, when did you come back?"
Ma Pingan listened to Zhang Baohua's voice and said, "Oh, I just came back not long ago, why are you back too?"
Zhang Baohua closed the door, looked at Ma Ping'an expressionlessly and said, "Did you do the poisoning? Why did you make such a big move just after you came back? If it's traced back to you, do you think I'll be in trouble?"
Listening to Zhang Baohua's questioning, Ma Pingan said, "Baohua, why are you talking so loudly? Are you afraid that others don't know that there is a problem between us?"
"Don't give me that. Just tell me if you did this or not."
Faced with Zhang Baohua's questioning, Ma Ping'an just smiled, did not answer, and then picked up his textbook and started reading.
Seeing Ma Ping'an ignoring him, Zhang Baohua got angry. He grabbed Ma Ping'an's collar from behind and said, "It's better if it has nothing to do with you. If we are found to have a problem, I will not let you go."
Having said that, he let go of Ma Ping'an. After regaining his freedom, the other party straightened his collar and did not bother with Zhang Baohua. As for what he was thinking in his heart, no one knew.
