親父の背中(7)
兄貴が弔辞で親父にはよく平手打ちを食らい壁に鮮血が飛び散ったと言っていた。僕の記憶では、兄貴は机の上に立たされて60センチくらいの竹の物差しで向こうずねをひっぱたかれていた。風呂場に追い込まれてぶん殴られて鼻血がタイルに飛び散っていた。
In his eulogy, my brother said that my father slapped him and spattered fresh blood on the wall. I remember him standing on a desk and hit on his shin with a six-foot bamboo ruler. He was driven into the bathroom and beaten so severely that his nose bled all over the tiles.
