Zhang Chunxue pouted at Zhong Hongqing and said, "Guess how this kid found his way here."

Song Xingzhi's face turned green. "So, I was followed by a child?"

He reacted quickly: "Is it his parents who are taking care of him?"

He also showed a disgusted expression on his face: "Why are you following me? Are you trying to find out?"

"I guess so!" Zhang Chunxue shrugged. "Who knows what Li Hongjuan wants to do?"

Song Xingzhi's expression became even more disgusted.

He couldn't help but look at Zhong Hongqing again: "Then what should we do with this child?"

Zhang Chunxue looked at the heavy rain outside and said, "I was thinking of waiting until the rain subsided a bit before heading to town to see if there were any people returning to the village so I could help bring them back...but the rain just won't stop."

"How about I send it back?" Song Xingzhi said as he was about to pick up the raincoat he had just hung up.

He knew that Zhang Chunxue had delayed the three sons, and therefore he also disliked Zhong Hongqing.

Zhang Chunxue, however, grabbed him and said with a face full of anger: "It's raining so hard, you're going out again and getting wet again?"

“What if I get sick?”

"Then I can only wait for Sister Chunxue to take care of me," Song Xingzhi said with a playful smile, pulling her hand with his backhand. "After all, Sister Chunxue has taken care of me, a sick kid, before!"

That was not long after he arrived in Zhongjia Village. Maybe it was because he couldn't adapt to the local climate, but he had a high fever for many days in a row.

When he was dazed, every time he opened his eyes, he saw Zhang Chunxue.

At that time, Zhang Chunxue always kept Zhong Chengfa by her side, helping him to get water, wipe his body, and cook for him.

After Song Xingzhi recovered from his illness, he went to thank Zhang Chunxue.

Zhang Chunxue just smiled and said that she was pregnant and about to give birth, so she couldn't go to work. Therefore, the village chief gave her five kilograms of coarse grains and asked her to come and find someone to take care of him, so Song Xingzhi didn't need to thank her.

It was only at this moment that Song Xingzhi noticed her bulging belly, and a hint of sadness flashed across his eyes.

But now, the person he loved but could not have has finally become his wife, and Song Xingzhi couldn't be happier.

Zhang Chunxue also remembered this incident and couldn't help but pinch Song Xingzhi again.

They were very affectionate, but Li Hongjuan was almost going crazy looking for Zhong Hongqing.

She never thought that Zhong Hongqing went to Zhang Chunxue's house.

Although she brought Zhong Hongqing with her when she followed Song Xingzhi last time, she never thought that a three-year-old child could remember this!

So after searching the town several times without finding anyone, Li Hongjuan immediately asked someone who was going back to the village to take a message to Zhong Chengfa, asking him to hurry to the town to look for the person.

When Zhong Chengfa heard the news that his son was missing, he was devastated.

He didn't care about anything else at the moment. He put on his straw raincoat and bamboo hat, called Zhong Chengyi, and hurried to the town.

When Zhong Chengfa asked him to go to the town, Zhong Chengyi didn't want to go at first, but when he heard that Zhong Hongqing was lost, he hesitated for a moment and decided to go anyway.

It was already very late at this time, and the sky was getting dark. In addition, it was raining heavily, so the two of them specially brought flashlights.

As Zhong Chengyi hurried on, he complained, "Sister-in-law is such a jerk! She took the child to town to buy something, and she ended up losing the child... I'm really impressed!"

"How far can Hongqing, a three-year-old child, walk in such heavy rain? I wonder if he was taken away by someone!"

Zhong Chengfa was already furious with Li Hongjuan, and when he heard this, his face became even gloomier.

Zhong Chengyi couldn't help but continue complaining: "Brother, when Mom asked you to divorce, you should have just done it! That way we wouldn't have to separate from Mom..."

"It's you and my second brother. One of you refuses to divorce, and the other insists on getting a divorce... I'm being dragged down by you!"

Zhong Chengfa was already furious, and when he heard Zhong Chengyi complaining, he became even more furious.

"Can't you just shut up?" He clutched the flashlight tightly in his hand. "Things have already come to this. What's the point of complaining now?"

Zhong Chengyi curled his lips: "Okay, okay, okay! Anyway, you will live your life on your own from now on!"

The two rushed to the town, and Zhong Chengfa found Li Hongjuan first.

Li Hongjuan is now standing under the eaves of the supply and marketing cooperative, crying uncontrollably.

Zhong Chengfa's rage immediately rose when he saw her. He strode over and started scolding her, "What else do you do all day? All you do is eat and sleep! I asked you to bring the child here to buy something, and you actually lost the child!"

When Li Hongjuan heard Zhong Chengfa scolding her without any explanation, she cried even more sadly.

"You still have the nerve to cry!" Zhong Chengfa gritted his teeth, "How on earth did the child get lost?"

Li Hongjuan sobbed and recounted the whole process.

Zhong Chengyi bared his teeth and said, "Where could Hongqing go on such a rainy day? Could he have really been taken away?"

When Li Hongjuan heard this, she cried even louder.

"Shut up!" Zhong Chengfa suppressed the urge to slap her twice, "Go find Haibu! Go door to door and ask!"

The three of them immediately split up.

Someone actually saw Zhong Hongqing walking to the side alone in the rain.

This made the three of them feel relieved.

At least the child walked out by himself and was not taken away by someone from the supply and marketing cooperative.

The three of them searched in this direction again, knocking on doors from time to time and asking nearby residents.

However, because the rain was so heavy, there was basically no one outside, so few people saw Zhong Hongqing. Finally, when they reached a crossroads, the clues were completely cut off.

Li Hongjuan burst into tears again.

Zhong Chengfa finally couldn't bear it anymore and raised his hand to slap him hard: "What's the use of me wanting you?"

The slap was so powerful that Li Hongjuan fell directly to the ground, and the oil-paper umbrella in her hand also fell to the ground.

Her body quickly became wet, and her face became red and swollen.

Li Hongjuan didn't get up either. She simply lay on the ground and continued to cry loudly.

Zhong Chengfa looked at her with disgust and was about to kick her, but Zhong Chengyi quickly stopped him.

"Okay, big brother, if you want to beat your wife, go back home!" He frowned. "Or think about it, where is Hongqing most likely to go now that he's here?"

Zhong Chengfa finally managed to calm down and said irritably, "Where else can he go? We don't have any relatives or acquaintances in this town!"

"He's only three years old and hasn't been to town very often..."

Zhong Chengyi glanced towards the road on the left: "Speaking of relatives... doesn't mom live in town?"
