I became beautiful by eating melons

Cai Genshun stood in the yard, praising his brother all the time.

"My brother is very good to me. During the famine, I almost died many times. It was my brother..."

A large hand grabbed his neck and pulled out the roots like a carrot.

Cai Genshun looked at the man in fear.

The man had a gloomy face, his eyebrows were full of impatience, and his eyes were dark.

Jiang Chen grabbed the root of the vegetable by the neck and lifted the man higher and higher.

"Jiang Chen!" Xu Cheng was so scared that he hurried over to stop him.

"Bang!" A drawing hit Xu Cheng's face.

Xu Cheng was confused and looked at the drawing. There was a handsome man with clear features on it.

"Who is this?"

"Cai Gensheng."

"Is this Cai Gensheng?!" Xu Cheng widened his eyes in shock, looking at the draft and then at Cai Genshun.

Cai Genshun is a little over 1.7 meters tall, with fair skin, eyes, and small flat nose. He is completely different from Cai Gensheng.

Xu Cheng's face suddenly turned gloomy. He put down his hand that was trying to stop Jiang Chen and held up the drawing for Cai Genshun to look at.

"Are you two brothers?"

Cai Genshun's breathing was obstructed, he opened his mouth but couldn't speak, and his body was flapping its limbs as if he was swimming.

"Jiang Chen, put him down first." Xu Cheng advised.

Jiang Chen said coldly: "He won't tell the truth."

Cai Genshun is timid and afraid of death. His biggest dream in life is to live a peaceful life.

Now after hearing Jiang Chen's words, all his thoughts disappeared and he opened his mouth and uttered a few words with difficulty.

"I, I...speak!"

"Bang!" Jiang Chen shook off Cai Genshun.

Cai Gen fell heavily on his buttocks, and he covered his throat and coughed with saliva flying everywhere.

Xu Cheng said impatiently: "Hurry up and tell me."

Cai Genshun took a deep breath, sat on the ground and didn't get up again, spread his legs and leaned his head against it and said, "He is definitely not my brother, and we are not real brothers."

"Why lie?" Xu Cheng asked sternly.

"To survive." Cai Genshun's true identity was exposed, and his honest and timid temperament disappeared, and he became more unruly.

Cai Genshun's original name was Zhao Fugui. His father was a well-known landlord in the local area. During the land reform, most of the land was returned to the state, and the family became poor.

His parents couldn't stand it and hanged themselves.

Zhao Fugui was not convinced and wanted to find someone to take back their family's land.

He ran away from the village and wandered around.

When he was fourteen, he met Cai Gensheng, a deserter from the battlefield.

Zhao Fugui didn’t know Cai Gensheng’s real name, and he never asked.

He saw Cai Gensheng killing someone and almost died, but thanks to his cleverness he said he could give Cai Gensheng a legitimate identity, and thus he survived.

Afterwards, they changed their names and fled to the sparsely populated northwest.

They lived a peaceful life there for five years, but then a famine struck and they could no longer survive, so they fled all the way to the capital.

"That's all nonsense." Jiang Chen lowered his eyes and looked at him, "Just talk about the relationship between Tian Zihui and Cai Genshun."

Out of consideration for Cai Genshun, Xu Cheng did not ask who Tian Zihui was and just listened quietly.

This couple is very good at interrogating people.

His master used the Chinese medicine interrogation route, his methods were unique and the results were excellent.

Jiang Chen resorted to violent interrogation, forcing the coward to answer questions, and he always got the answers right.

"You really came here for her." Zhao Fugui did not struggle, but laughed at himself: "I had guessed that this day would come."

"Don't keep me in suspense, just say it." It was past midnight, Xu Cheng was yawning due to sleepiness, and his patience was completely exhausted.

"We met that woman on the way to Jing City."

They hadn't eaten for three days and were so hungry that they felt dizzy and their heads were numb. It is no exaggeration to say that they didn't even have the strength to think and their legs moved forward instinctively.

Just then, they heard the woman's cry for help.

The woman's voice was exceptionally soft, and even her scream of fear was not harsh.

Zhao Fugui took a curious look.

She was a very thin and fair woman who was dragged into the woods by two men.

Zhao Fugui often saw this scene. This road was too long and too hard. Women who couldn't bear it would seek refuge with some strong men at the cost of their bodies.

Of course there will be some people who are unwilling to do so, but it is easy to deal with these people. They can just be killed and eaten after the fun.

Yes, I ate it literally.

Zhao Fugui was timid and selfish by nature, so he pretended not to see anything and continued walking forward.

Cai Gensheng suddenly rushed out.

When he came back, his face and hands were covered in blood. He was holding the woman and was informed that he was taking the woman with him.

Zhao Fugui disagreed, but he was afraid of the roots growing, so he didn't dare to make a fuss openly.

Cai Gensheng is cruel and has no normal human emotions. He is like a wild beast from the mountains, and acts entirely on instinct.

He met many women like this along the way, and this was the first time Cai Gensheng saved someone.

Zhao Fugui couldn't see through Cai Gensheng and could only observe the woman secretly.

He wanted to know what was so special about this woman.

The woman said her name was Tian Zihui, all her family members had died, and she wanted to go to Beijing to visit her relatives.

She was quiet, loved to laugh, was thinner and fairer than the other women, but there was nothing special about her.

Zhao Fugui just thought that Cai Gensheng had committed too many sins and wanted to do good deeds occasionally, so he didn't think much about it.

until that day.

Cai Gensheng killed two people in order to save Tian Zihui.

These two people were the leaders of their team. They couldn't go back, so they had to leave the group and travel alone.

The three people fled all the way, and after leaving the northwest, they came across a small mountain village.

This place is like a paradise, with clean water and plenty of food.

Zhao Fugui’s idea was to borrow some food and have a place to stay.

But as soon as the three of them got close, they were shot.

The bullet bounced at his feet and Zhao Fugui screamed in fear.

Tian Zihui and Cai Gensheng's expressions did not change.

The people in this village are tough and everyone carries a gun. There are many disaster victims passing by here and they rely on guns to defend themselves.

Zhao Fugui begged that they could be given just one bowl of porridge.

Such a simple request was also rejected.

They refused to give the allegiance and drove them away.

Zhao Fugui and the other two had to leave temporarily.

That night, he was so hungry that he went to bed early. When he woke up, Tian Zihui and Cai Gensheng were gone.

He thought he was left behind and hurried to find someone.

Walking down the path, he saw the village during the day, with flames shooting up into the sky.

He thought that he could take the opportunity to put out the fire, gain the favor of the villagers, and borrow some food. Without hesitation, he rushed down the mountain, and when he approached the village, he stopped.

There were two people standing at the entrance of the village, they were Tian Zihui and Cai Gensheng.

Tian Zihui held a torch in his hand, his face grim: "Don't let any of them go."

Cai Gensheng held the gun, aimed sideways, and shot every time.

An entire village was killed.

Finally, a child staggered out, crying for his mother.

Cai Gen paused and did not shoot.

Tian Zihui smiled and waved at the child: "Be good, come to your sister."

The child staggered over, and Tian Zihui hugged the child, saying distressedly, "How pitiful."

Zhao Fugui hid aside and watched secretly.

The woman who was praising the child for being well-behaved just a second ago, suddenly reached out and broke the child's neck.

Zhao Fugui was so frightened that his legs went limp and he fell to the ground. He ran away without caring whether they heard anything or not.

He only knew that women were devils and Cai Gensheng was the devil's servant. If he wanted to survive, he had to stay away from women.

Zhao Fugui was lucky. He found a large group of people while fleeing and followed them to Beijing.

There, he met Cai Gensheng again.

Cai Gensheng leaned against the wall of the shelter, without Tian Zihui by his side.

Zhao Fugui plucked up the courage to ask, and Cai Gensheng said that the woman was dead.

He breathed a sigh of relief. He was always bullied at the shelter because of his thin body. Seeing that Tian Zihui was no longer with Cai Gensheng, he became interested and recognized this brother again.

Afterwards, Cai Gensheng used trickery to marry Wang Hong, used gold to pry open the mouth of the village chief, and stayed in Lijia Village.

Twenty years have passed in a flash.

Zhao Fugui heard Tian Zihui's name again.
