Preamble:
Just because his son is going to get married, he kills his own flesh and blood, is this the true meaning of home?
In this blood-soaked home, where everyone is hurting each other, who will be the next victim?
Why didn't the mother leave this house of violence?
In this family, the shadow of domestic violence began when his son Xiao Zhang was very young.
Xiao Zhang's father, Lao Zhang, has a violent personality and has a Xi of alcoholism.
Every time he came home drunk, he would beat his wife and son for no reason.
The mother endured for many years, suffering great physical and psychological damage.
Lao Zhang's fists and kicks never seem to stop, his mother's body is covered with large and small scars, and her back is especially serious, and she is often beaten with a belt by Lao Zhang, causing it to be red and swollen.
Over time, the mother's personality became more and more introverted, and there were even signs of mild depression.
In order to protect her son, her mother decided to take Xiao Zhang away from her hometown and live in another place.
My mother has always been working in other places, the conditions are difficult, and she faces the environment of being oppressed by her boss every day, but she would rather suffer herself than let her son grow up safely.
Xiao Zhang grew up, although life was still poor, but the mother and son cared for each other, and his mother used her limited time to teach Xiao Zhang Xi knowledge and told him to be a good person.
This deep affection between mother and son warmed each other's hearts.
Lao Zhang would occasionally call, but his mother would press it directly, and even changed his mobile phone number directly in the end.
Until Xiao Zhang was about to get married, a word came from his hometown, saying that Lao Zhang's temper was much better, he had quit drinking for a year, and he had never beaten anyone again.
Relatives and friends persuaded her mother to take Xiao Zhang back to live for a few days, after all, Xiao Zhang was going to marry a daughter-in-law.
The mother was hesitant at first, and there were too many scars to erase.
But seeing her son's expectant appearance, after hesitation, the mother decided to move back to her hometown.
She has never been able to give up, after all, she was born and raised for so many years, and the guardian still has a glimmer of hope, maybe Lao Zhang has really changed his ways.
Why did Lao Zhang commit violence again
Lao Zhang has had an easy time these years.
There is no wife at home, and his alcoholism has worsened.
He drank all day and all night, and almost all of the money was used to buy alcohol.
The people in the village ignored him, and some even scolded him to his face that he was a brute and unworthy of having a family.
Lao Zhang couldn't change his past wrongs, so he could only rely more and more on alcohol for solace.
Occasionally, when he came to his senses, he would cry to himself, but the next day he still went his own way.
This time the daughter-in-law is coming to live at home, and Lao Zhang thinks that he finally has someone to accompany him.
He happily packed up the house, and even started cleaning a month in advance, preparing to give a warm and happy home to a family of three.
I thought that my son would forgive me, but I didn't expect that as soon as my son and wife came back, the old problem would be committed again.
Maybe he was too excited, Lao Zhang couldn't help but buy a few cases of beer, thinking of drinking a little refreshment.
But soon he got drunk and fell unconscious, and when he came home, he began to make trouble.
His wife couldn't help but persuade him to drink less and not to repeat the mistakes of the past.
Lao Zhang was angry and began to beat his wife again, spilling out all the resentment accumulated over the years.
The son Xiao Zhang saw his mother being beaten, and finally couldn't bear it anymore and fought back.
After a stalemate, Lao Zhang was beaten by his son and his nose was blue and his face was swollen, and his mouth was covered with blood and fell to the ground.
Now the whole village knows about it, and they all say that Lao Zhang suffered by himself and deserved to be beaten by his son.
Lao Zhang has never been so embarrassed in his life, and he hates it very much in his heart.
Violence in despair
Originally, Lao Zhang thought that his son would slowly dissipate his anger, and the mother and son would move back, and the atmosphere at home would still be harmonious.
Unexpectedly, the next night, his wife and son directly told Lao Zhang that since he was like this, they would kick him out of the house!
The son said that he would never recognize this old man as a beast as a father again.
Lao Zhang panicked instantly, hysterically begging them not to do this, kneeling on the ground and saying anything is acceptable, promising that he will never beat anyone again in the future.
But those apologies and assurances sounded so empty to the son and wife.
Years of domestic violence have long made the mother and son lose all trust and expectations for Lao Zhang.
Not only that, but his son also has Lao Zhang's only 1,000 yuan in his hand, which he has finally saved to prepare for the New Year.
The son crumpled the money and threw it in Lao Zhang's face, as if he was taking revenge for his years of domestic violence.
Lao Zhang suddenly realized that in the hearts of the mother and son, he had long been penniless.
He was arrested six days later
This bloodstained house has finally put an end to this domestic violence.
村民报了案，警方展开追捕。
Through various evidence analysis and monitoring investigations, Lao Zhang's whereabouts were quickly locked.
After six days, Lao Zhang was successfully arrested by the police in a dilapidated rental house in other places.
The rental house is full of the remains of wine bottles, and there are still blood marks on the walls from Lao Zhang's emotional outburst a few days ago.
During the interrogation, Lao Zhang even killed his own wife and children, showing no remorse at all.
In his heart, this family has long existed in name only, and the little affection he has for his wife and son has long been wiped out in many violent situations, and now only full of resentment remains.
The court quickly sentenced Lao Zhang to death.
Lao Zhang, who was in prison, sat in front of the bars in a daze all day long.
His fellow inmates avoided him and hated a murderer who was a domestic violence and a murderer.
Lao Zhang often thinks of the scene when he was a child, holding Xiao Zhang, who was still a baby, with indescribable joy and expectations in his heart, and wanted to give him the best of everything.
Now that all this beauty is gone, how desperate is he to destroy it all with his own hands.
The scars of domestic violence are hard to heal
We all think that home should be a warm and happy existence.
However, as this tragic case demonstrates, long-term domestic violence can sow seeds of hatred in people's hearts that are difficult to eradicate.
Those scars do not disappear with time, but instead breed malignant tumors in despair, and finally erupt into a terrible murderous machine.
Domestic violence is not the true meaning of home.
It will only plunge this home into the abyss of destruction.
We must start from ourselves, cherish everyone around us, resolve all violence with love, and influence every lost person with tolerance, which is the only way for this family to move towards the light.
Everyone has both good and evil sides in their hearts, and we must support the good side.
Epilogue:
This tragic case of domestic violence is a wake-up call for us.
We must face up to domestic violence as a social problem and declare "zero tolerance" from the legal and moral levels.
Only a society that is full of the glory of humanity can prevent the recurrence of similar tragedies.
Let's join hands to protect all families from violence and protect all children from growing up healthy and happy.
