Dream Reading

After my granddaughter was bullied, the parents of the other party not only refused to apologize but were exceedingly arrogant.

Just because they had connections in the city, I went to the school, but the school dared not intervene. I went to the police, but they also told me to let it go.

They arrogantly told me that they had connections in the court as well and dared me to sue.

With nowhere to appeal, I had no choice but to take out the two first-class merit medals left by my son and daughter-in-law after their deaths and kneel at the gate of the military district compound.

This was because six years ago, when the chief personally delivered these two first-class merit medals to my home, he said:

My son and daughter-in-law sacrificed for the country; they are heroes, martyrs, the pride of the nation.

But now, I want to ask him again:
Why is it that when the daughter of a martyr is bullied, there's no one to stand up for her?


After My Granddaughter Was Bullied, I Knelt at the Military District Gate with First-Class Merit Medals

In the video, my granddaughter was cornered by a group of them.


My granddaughter was huddled alone in the corner, helplessly crying.


"People like her, with a father who doesn't care and a mother who doesn't love, are born for our amusement."


The bully aimed the camera for a close-up of my daughter's face.


My hand holding the phone trembled, I couldn't bear to watch any longer.


Tao Feifei's father sent a provocative message along with the video: [Old man, enjoying the video? If you don't sign the forgiveness letter, believe it or not, I'll spread this video all over the internet and make your granddaughter a laughingstock of the whole net!]


After saying that, he sent a picture of a skinned little rabbit.


Yaoyao's zodiac is the rabbit, and her favorite animal is the little rabbit.


"Don't you think this is going too far?"


"I'm just being excessive, what can you do about it? I have relatives in court, and not to mention beating people, even killing doesn't require taking legal responsibility. Your granddaughter will be miserable, having to live in the shadow of being bullied for the rest of her life!"


When I tried to message again, he blocked me.


I attempted to contact many law firms, but everyone told me they couldn't or wouldn't take the case.


The Tao Family really is, as the principal said, well-connected, even having relatives to help in court.


Could it be that justice for Yaoyao can never be sought?


Yaoyao's mental state is deteriorating; she finds it hard to sleep every night and even if she falls asleep, nightmares wake her up.


Yaoyao tearfully tells me she doesn't dare to close her eyes, every time she does, she dreams of the day Tao Feifei bullied her.


I hold Yaoyao, who sobs uncontrollably in my arms, with a heart full of ache.


"Grandpa, I just dreamed of Dad and Mom."


"I dreamed we were playing together at the amusement park, but soon after we started, they got a mission, saying the country needed them for a while, and that once the mission was completed, they'd come back home."


"But grandpa, when will the country return Dad and Mom to me?"


"If Dad and Mom were with me, no one would bully me for not having them around..."


"Grandpa, why don't bad people get punished?"


Staring at my granddaughter's pale face, I had no words to respond.


A surge of indescribable grief and a sense of powerlessness rose in my heart.
