Chapter 20: Poisonous Woman

Father Jiang was sitting at the door when he saw Jiang Mi come back. He asked anxiously, "What's the result?"

After all, this concerns whether the Jiang family can move to a new house.

Jiang Mi and Jiang's father closed the door and went into the house. Jiang Mi did not mention the affair between Jiang Aidang and Cui Mengrou. She picked out the important things and talked about Wang Sanshui's affairs. She said that she would have to wait until tomorrow to know the details. Since Sanshui wanted to see me, it meant that there was something hidden in this matter. She also instructed Jiang's father: "It's enough for us to know it ourselves, and let the Propaganda Department handle the rest.

Father Jiang sighed repeatedly: "The president is so confused. How could he do such a conscienceless thing?"

This is not thinking about Jiang Aidang.

Jiang Mi didn't say much. She said, "Dad, please wake me up at five o'clock tomorrow morning. I have to go find Sanshui at half past five." Without an alarm clock at this time, it would be impossible for her to wake up naturally at five o'clock. Jiang's father sighed and said, "Go to sleep."

The others in the room were also listening intently. Liu Yun felt relieved. Things were looking up for her house. She had always dreamed of moving to a better house.

Jiang Ning lowered her voice and asked, "Mimi, is this matter related to Second Uncle?"

Jiang Mi also said in a very low voice: "Yes. There is also a piece of gossip. Do you want to hear it? I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep after listening to it."

Jiang Ning: "Listen!!"

A woman's passion for gossip is unstoppable, even sleep is unbearable. Jiang Mi: "Let me tell you, Second Uncle and Cui Mengrou went to the reed marsh tonight."

Jiang Ning: Is that what you mean? Adultery with Sanshui's stepmother

Jiang Mi nodded: "Yes. Sister, don't tell my parents about this for now."

Jiang Ning was stunned by the news. After a moment, she said: "You want them to fight each other." @无限好文，全在Jinjiang文学

Jiang Mi nodded with a smile. It might be difficult to get out of the textile factory together, but getting out of the union was no problem. Jiang Ning couldn't sleep at this moment. She said, "We're living a good life, but Second Uncle is determined to go to a dead end."

Jiang Mi: "Second sister, I saw Sanshui being rescued. The child really almost drowned and was unconscious when he was rescued. Second uncle can come up with such an idea, he has a dark heart." After she finished speaking, she yawned, closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Jiang Ning was so shocked by the news that she couldn't sleep.

The next day, Jiang's father called Jiang Mi to get up. After Jiang Mi woke up, she lay on the bed for a while.

Mom came in with clothes and put them on the bed. "Hurry up and get dressed. It's almost half past five."

Jiang Mi suddenly woke up and put on her mother's favorite blue and white plaid skirt and a pair of black leather shoes. Mother Jiang was very pleased with her and said, "You look so energetic and beautiful. In two years, there will be so many people proposing marriage to you that they will knock down our door."

Jiang Mi was afraid it was too late, so she prepared to come back to wash up. She casually gathered her hair and ran out: "Thank you, Mom, for giving birth to such a beautiful me." When she reached the main room, she glanced at the clock hanging on the wall. It was four fifty...

Jiang Mi: "It's too early to shout!!!"

She wished she could go back to sleep for another ten minutes.

Jiang Ma: It's getting late. If you wash up and eat something, it will be half past five. If you don't say this, you will get up.

Jiang Mi:!!!

She needs a watch!

Jiang Ning walked out with a smile, "Our mom is like this. When we were in school, she always tricked us into getting up early." She was wearing a skirt and a pair of white mesh shoes. Her hair was braided into two fishbone braids, which she had slightly modified to better suit the aesthetics of this era.

Jiang Mi praised: "Beautiful."

After Jiang Mi finished washing up, Peng Yang came on a bicycle. Jiang's mother cooked some eggs for her to eat first, but she didn't eat them. She put them in her pocket and took out a can of beef, preparing to give them to Sanshui later.

Peng Yang took her to Wang Sanshui's house and rode the bike very fast. Jiang Mi squinted her eyes in the morning breeze, and she was completely refreshed. The air in this era is so fresh!

When I arrived at the intersection in front of Wang Sanshui's house, I saw a little child waiting there.

Wang Sanshui ran towards Jiang Mi, raised his little face and said, "Sister Jiang Mi."

Jiang Mi jumped off the bicycle and rubbed Sanshui's hair: "You got up so early, you haven't eaten anything, right?" She handed her the can of meat: Can you hide it? If not, then eat it now.

Wang Sanshui: Sure. Sister Mimi is so beautiful today, like a fairy from heaven. I almost didn't recognize her. "You're so sweet." Jiang Mi peeled another egg and gave it to her: "This is for breakfast." Wang Sanshui ate one egg in two bites and refused to eat the other, so he gave it to Jiang Mi.

Jiang Mi ate the eggs in small bites.

Peng Yang watched the two of them eating eggs and didn't mention the incident of falling into the water. He coughed and grabbed a handful of White Rabbit candy and gave it to Wang Sanshui: Sanshui, can you tell Sister Mimi how you fell into the river?

Wang Sanshui took the candy and said:

"Brother, stand next to that tree."

Peng Yang glanced at the tree that Wang Sanshui pointed at, which was five or six meters away! Wang Sanshui's eyes were cold and serious, and he didn't seem to be joking at all. It was obvious that Wang Sanshui didn't want to tell him.

He had no choice but to push his bicycle over.

Jiang Mi smiled and pinched Wang Sanshui's cheek: "Don't be so cunning, kid, or you won't grow tall."

Wang Sanshui peeled a White Rabbit candy and said, "Sister, have some. I washed my hands, face, and hair this morning, so I'm not dirty."

Jiang Mi suddenly couldn't laugh anymore. She felt a little uncomfortable. She squatted down, looked at Wang Sanshui, and ate the White Rabbit milk candy. It was so sweet.

She reached out and held the little hand that Wang Sanshui had given her candy. Why did she get up so early in the morning?

There was not a trace of moisture in Wang Sanshui's hair; she had gotten up very early.

Before Peng Yang had walked far, he heard Sanshui giving Jiang Mi some candy. He was offering his candy to Jiang Mi. This kid didn't act like a kid at all.

Wang Sanshui looked at her hand being held, which was tightly wrapped in Jiang Mi's fair palm. Since her father left, no one had ever held her hand like this. She smiled brightly: "I wanted to come here earlier to wait for Sister Mimi."

Wang Sanshui looked back at Peng Yang. As he walked away, there were trees blocking her view, so she couldn't see him. She took out a small gold lock from her pocket and handed it to Jiang Mi like a treasure: "Sister, this is for you. I'll give you money in the future, and you can support me."

Wang Sanshui didn't know whether she fell asleep last night. Anyway, she was thinking about Jiang Mi all night. She got up at dawn, washed herself clean, and waited here. She waited for a long time and thought for a long time. She made up her mind that she would let Jiang Mi support her.

Ginger honey:

Wang Sanshui put her hand in front of Jiang Mi's eyes again, asking her to look at the little golden lock. Seeing that she didn't react, she thought that there were not enough things, so she took out a stack of banknotes and presented them to Jiang Mi. She smiled even more brightly, revealing a pair of pointed little fangs: "Yesterday I was afraid that you didn't like the little golden lock, so I prepared these. Sister Mimi, please take care of me. I'm easy to take care of.

Jiang Mi only felt prosperous and dazed.

You are eight years old and I am seventeen. I can hardly support myself, how can I support you?

Wang Sanshui looked up and said seriously: "I will give you money. All this is for you. If it's not enough, I will give you more. I can cook, boil water, and wash clothes.

Jiang Mi: You are a child

, don't do these!!!

Wang Sanshui nodded, reached out and stuffed the things into Jiang Mi's pocket, wanting to give Jiang Mi the small gold lock and the banknotes: Here.

Jiang Mi grabbed her hand and said, "Why do you have so much money and gold? Don't take it out. Keep it safe. It will be valuable later. Since you have money, use the money to buy food at the supply and marketing cooperative. The supply and marketing cooperative doesn't cheat children. Children need to eat more, otherwise they won't grow tall and won't become adults."

Wang Sanshui couldn't possibly have these. Jiang Mi didn't know where they came from, and she didn't even dare to ask. If someone had left them to her, she could use them as she pleased. If she had stolen them, Jiang Mi didn't even know how to teach her.

In some environments, if you don't eat or take things secretly, you will really starve to death.

Wang Sanshui: "I'll give it to you. All of it is yours. The gold was left to me by my biological mother, and the banknotes were taken from my mother's cabinet." He added, "My mother is my stepmother. She doesn't know how to count and can't even count the money correctly. When I was beaten, I would steal and throw them into the river. If you don't want these, I'll throw them into the river too.

Jiang Mi:!!! She looked at the child in front of her, not knowing what to say.

Wang Sanshui: "Sister, you want to know how I fell into the river, right? My mother kicked me into the river. I can't swim, and I was struggling in the river. I almost died. Another uncle rescued me. My mother saw him coming and kicked me into the river. Sister, what else do you want to know? I will tell you. If you really don't want to raise me, then I will raise you.

Jiang Mi couldn't help but reach out and touch Wang Sanshui's head again. He had short, fluffy hair, a big head and big eyes, and a small body. It looked like a severely malnourished child. She must have been very scared at that time.

Wang Sanshui narrowed his eyes, showing his canine teeth and smiled, and rubbed his head against Jiang Mi's palm: "I'm not afraid of the river, I'm afraid that my mother will kill me. If I die, I won't be able to wait for my father.

Jiang Mi's heart softened all of a sudden. She was actually a very hard-hearted person, but she was especially soft-hearted towards children. In her previous life, she had been taken advantage of because of this, so she became wary of children. But when it came to Wang Sanshui in front of her, she couldn't be wary.

She reached out and hugged Wang Sanshui in her arms: Little Sanshui, you're putting your sister in a difficult position.

She and the people from the Propaganda Department are taking care of him.

It's better than following her stepmother.

But the child didn't play tricks on her. He gave her things that she thought were good things to please her, and told her whatever she wanted to know.

Wang Sanshui almost squinted her eyes as Jiang Mi held her. She stuffed the things in her hand into Jiang Mi's pocket. She wanted to reach out and hug Jiang Mi, but she didn't dare. She was reluctant to leave, but still said: "My clothes are not washed, they are dirty."

Jiang Mi: "Sanshui is very clean."

Wang Sanshui said proudly: "I don't have any lice on my body! Sister, you raise me and I will raise you, okay? If you think I'm not good enough in the future, just drive me away, and I will be fine.

Jiang Mi rubbed her head: I won’t stay here for long, I will go to the countryside.

She could see that Wang Sanshui had a tendency to be world-weary and depressed, indifferent to people, not caring about suffering, money, or whether he was hungry or beaten. The key was that he was too smart and difficult to raise.

If I leave it to the Jiang family first, I’m afraid that Jiang’s father and mother won’t be able to teach me.

Wang Sanshui was rubbed until he was drowsy, and said lazily: "Sister, I will give you my mother's job. She buys tickets at the station. This job is to compensate me. She will give it to me when I turn sixteen. Now I give it to you.

So when Cui Mengrou kicked Wang Sanshui into the river this time, she really intended to drown him. Jiang Mi was furious!

Sanshui, you can't stay with your stepmother anymore. She wants to kill you. I will help you get back everything that belongs to you. After you recover, we will go to school. Jiang Mi said: I won't follow your stepmother anymore, okay?

Wang Sanshui said happily: "I will listen to my sister. When my sister goes to work, I will wait for her at home and make delicious food for her, such as chicken soup, braised pork, egg noodles, and egg custard. I will make sure that everything is clean and tidy so that she can eat clean and delicious food. After eating, I will boil water for her to take a bath. If she likes someone, I will help her to trick that person back. Don't go rolling around in the reed marshes, it's dirty.

Jiang Mi: Uh...

This child has no moral values. When he cooked for Cui Mengrou before, the food must have been unclean. As for how unclean it was, I dare not imagine it.

Jiang Mi had a headache. The sky was getting brighter, and it must be around six o'clock. She looked at Wang Sanshui and made up her mind: "Okay, I'll support you. But from now on, you have to listen to me."

Wang Sanshui smiled even brighter, with her little canine teeth pointed and very cute.

She regretted agreeing to go to Beijing yesterday. It was not easy to go back on one's word. Besides, she was not familiar with Wang Sanshui's affairs.

Want to intervene openly.

With Jiang Shuyin's scheming, if she knew she was involved, she would go crazy and try to frame Jiang Aiguo. In the end, Jiang Aiguo would be accused of being jealous of his brother and would be thrown dirty water on him. She would use the quarrels between brothers and cousins to cover up the fact that Jiang Aidong had committed adultery.

If things go wrong, Cui Mengrou will drag Jiang Aiguo into the water.

She hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm not in the capital these two days and will be back tomorrow afternoon. In the next two days, Brother Peng Yang and Sister Zhang Yunying will deal with your stepmother and the uncle who saved you. If someone comes to ask you how you fell into the river, do you know what to say?

Wang Sanshui was trembling all over and shrank back. It had nothing to do with my mother. My mother didn’t kick me into the river. I fell into the river accidentally.

Jiang Mi burst out laughing and kissed Sanshui's little face. "You're really clever. Just act it out like this. Also, don't tell anyone about Cui Mengrou and Jiang Aidang going to the reed marsh. Just pretend you don't know about it. Brother Peng Yang and the others will make the arrangements."

Wang Sanshui was intoxicated by Jiang Mi's kiss. She nodded and said, "I will listen to my sister."

Jiang Mi: "Yes. Today, everyone will know that Cui Mengrou is a very bad stepmother. Sister Zhang Yunying will take you back to her home, and you will follow her for a day. She is a kind sister and will protect you temporarily. I will come to pick you up tomorrow and go through the adoption procedures. You must wait for me safely, okay?" She hesitated for a moment. If there is still gold, she must hide it well, don't let your stepmother know, and never take it out again. Just leave it where it was, and let the gold wait for you to grow up.

Wang Sanshui: "I'll give it all to you."

Jiang Mi: No need. What was the most important thing just now?

Wang Sanshui: Waiting for my sister to pick me up.

Jiang Mi pinched Wang Sanshui's face: "You have to protect yourself before I come to pick you up. You are so smart, you understand what your sister means, right?

The child is too thin, with no flesh on his face, like a big-headed doll.

Wang Sanshui nodded. Jiang Mi said, "Okay, I'll watch you go back. Someone will come to find you by noon at the latest, and then ask Sister Yunying to take you to lunch. Trust me, Sister."

Wang Sanshui walked away, looking back every few steps, and then hid in the corner to peek. He saw Peng Yang pushing a bicycle to Jiang Mi. Jiang Mi jumped on the bicycle and looked back several times.

, was the direction she had just left, she smiled with her eyes curved, Sister Jiang Mi was looking at her!!! She knew that Sister Jiang Mi was the best.

When Jiang Mi's figure disappeared, she ran out from the corner, stood at the place where Jiang Mi had just helped her, and looked for a while before leaving reluctantly.

Peng Yang asked anxiously: "What's going on?" Although it has been confirmed, he still wants to know from Sanshui.

Jiang Mi pondered the details of this matter. She said, "Cui Mengrou kicked Sanshui into the river." Peng Yang felt a little heartbroken. "This stepmother is really vicious. What should I do next? Should I take Sanshui to expose Cui Mengrou?"

Jiang Mi shook her head: "Does Sanshui have any other relatives?"

Seeing Peng Yang nod, Jiang Mi said: "Just listen to my arrangements." She sat in the back seat and spoke in great detail and seriously, leaving almost no loopholes, ensuring that every step was taken correctly and steadily.

Unlike the previous casual remarks, Peng Yang was left to figure out the rest. Cui Mengrou had to be hammered to death in this matter, not giving her the chance to hurt Xiao Sanshui again.

By the time they arrived at Jiang Mi's house, Peng Yang had already understood Jiang Mi. He was once again shocked by Jiang Mi's intelligence. They were both human, but how did she look like that? He said: I will do this beautifully.

Jiang Mi smiled: When Director Chen becomes the deputy factory director, I also wish Brother Peng Yang a bright future following the deputy factory director.

Peng Yang:!!!

He has low qualifications and has only been in the Propaganda Department for two years. He definitely cannot be the director. The qualifications of deputy director are there. He is so concerned about this matter, and it is also to repay Director Chen for his previous care and appreciation for him, so that his future path will be smoother.

He had never thought about continuing to follow the deputy director. This completely opened up new ideas for him. Should he continue to work in the Propaganda Department or follow the deputy director?

It would definitely be better to follow the deputy factory director! Once your qualifications improve, at the very least, you can return to the Propaganda Department and become a leader.

He assured her, "Sister, don't worry. I will do this perfectly. I will protect Sanshui and let Yunying take good care of him.

Jiang Mi nodded. "Brother Peng Yang and Sister Yun Ying are both kind and good comrades. They will definitely protect Sanshui. I'll call you when I get to Beijing, and we'll get in touch then."

Peng Yang rode away on his bicycle with great excitement, promising to get the matter done properly.

When Jiang Mi arrived home, it was almost seven o'clock. Every household was eating, and the Jiang family had eaten half. Shen Huaicheng led Shen Huaijing to sit next to Jiang Ning, and Xu Lening sat next to Jiang Ma. The breakfast was very rich, with big meat buns.

There were dumplings, fried buns, tea eggs, boiled rice porridge, two plates of cold vegetables, and a plate of fried bacon.

Seeing Jiang Mi come in, Xu Lening's eyes lit up: "Mi Mi, come and eat, you love the fried buns here, I asked my dad to buy some early today."

Mother Jiang said, "Why are you back so late? This is Jingjing, Huaicheng's sister."

Jiang Mi washed her hands and sat next to Xu Lening. She looked at the little girl with two ponytails across from her and said with a smile, "Hello, Sister Jingjing."

The little girl looked about ten years old and seemed very curious about her, looking at her with her big eyes blinking.

Shen Huaijing: You are the smart and beautiful little sister my brother mentioned.

Jiang Mi smiled and nodded: "We are both the youngest sisters in the family. Your eyes are so beautiful, like black gemstones. Your pink skirt is very beautiful. Did you buy it in Bincheng? I have never seen such a beautiful little skirt in Bincheng.

Shen Huaijing was delighted: "You are so smart. This is what my grandma sent me a few days ago. I bought it in Beijing. There is nothing in Bincheng. You are also very beautiful, even more beautiful than the most beautiful campus belle in our school!"

Jiang Mi: "Did you bring these buns and tea eggs?" She peeled a tea egg, which was really delicious.

Shen Huaijing was happy: "My brother and I bought this at the bus station. The tea eggs in the restaurant over there are so delicious. I can eat two or three every time.

Shen Huaijing: "Sister Mimi, I asked my brother to buy this for me. I thought you would like it!"

Jiang Mi: "I like it. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to eat such delicious tea eggs. If I want to eat them again in the future, I will go to the bus station to buy them."

A few words coaxed Shen Huaijing into a good mood. Shen Huaijing said, "Sister Mimi, if you want to eat, tell me and I'll ask my brother to buy it and send it to you."

Everyone: ....No, why do you all give things to Mimi so willingly?

Jiang Mi saw Xu Lening pouting so much that a soy sauce bottle could be hung on her lips. She picked up another pan-fried bun and took a bite: "The skin is crispy and delicious.

Xu Lening was immediately happy.

After breakfast, they packed their luggage. Jiang Mi hid the small golden lock in the crack under the bed. Before leaving, Jiang Mi told her father not to go to work today, to rest for two days, and then go to work in the factory tomorrow, and not to go to her second uncle's house.

Jiang Ma said, "If he steps out of the yard, I'll break his legs."

Dad Jiang

:.…

Jiang Mi and Jiang Ning each carried a small shoulder bag filled with clothes and money, and then put on a cowhide bag, and set off with Xiao Jiangbao by their hand.

When they arrived at the Red Star Guesthouse, they saw Fang Liuliu and Qin Yuan carrying Xiao Niannian coming out of the guesthouse. The elders of the Fang and Qin families had left first.

In addition to the car Qin Yuan had driven, they also left behind a military jeep. It was large enough to accommodate so many people. They had already obtained their entry permits to Beijing, which Qin Yuan had helped them with.

Xu Lening and Jingjing both wanted to ride in the same car with Jiang Mi. Xiao Jiangbao was lying on the jeep and was so excited that he almost jumped up. This car was so cool that he wanted to run to the roof to take a look.

Several of them were sitting in a jeep.

Qin Yuan drove a black car. Liu Liu made the back seat of the car very soft with bedding and let Nian Nian sleep in the back seat. She and Jiang Ning sat next to them, and Shen Huaicheng sat in the passenger seat.

Shen Huaicheng regretted that he couldn't sit next to Jiang Ning.

Once the car was on the road, it became quiet. Shen Huaijing was very carsick, so she sat in the passenger seat, which was a little more comfortable. She held a plastic bag in her hand for fear of vomiting.

Xu Lening was also a little carsick, but not as badly. He leaned against the window, closed his eyes, and dozed off. Xiao Jiangbao was also groggy. It was his first time riding in a car, and he got carsick too. He was curious about the scenery along the way, and the jeep was moving fast. The more he looked, the more dizzy he felt. He was vomiting.

Jiang Mi quickly stretched out the oilcloth bag and helped him vomit.

He covered his mouth, trying desperately not to spit it out. There was no point in spitting out the good food he had eaten.

Jiang Mi: "Go to sleep, go to sleep. You won't feel dizzy when you sleep." She let Xiao Jiangbao sleep on her legs.

The soldier driving the car asked Jiang Mi: "Don't you get carsick?" In this day and age, many people get carsick.

Jiang Mi shook her head: Not dizzy.

The two chatted for a while, and Jiang Mi also felt sleepy. She didn't sleep well yesterday! She got up early in the morning! In a daze, she was still wondering how far Peng Yang had gone.

It’s time to go to the Public Security Bureau.

The matter has indeed been reported to the Public Security Bureau.

After Peng Yang and Jiang Mi separated, he rode his bicycle home to talk to his mother. He was worried about letting others handle this matter.

□□ is now retired. She is usually a good talker. After taking the task assigned by her son, she went straight to the old sister next door, Zhang Yunying's mother, carrying a basket of vegetables. After the two of them greeted each other in the yard, two more retired old sisters came. The four old ladies went to buy vegetables with baskets on their shoulders.

We are all retired from textile factories.

The old worker, who also lived in the family compound of the textile factory, was the most concerned about the affairs of the textile factory. There were many things going on in the textile factory these days, and the most lively one was Jiang Shuyin from the Jiang family. First, she had sex with someone, then she instigated her grandmother to teach her uncle and cousin a lesson, and finally there was the matter of child brides.

Several old ladies sighed, saying that he used to be a good person, but now he is in such a mess. Then they talked about Zhang Yunying and Peng Yang, saying that they were good children with warm hearts and were like Lei Feng.

Peng Yang's mother brought the topic back to the story of Chairman Liao at the textile factory saving people. Yunying and Peng Yang just did a simple favor, and anyone would do the same if they encountered the same situation. Chairman Liao was the real Lei Feng.

Several old ladies began to praise Liao Weiming for the good things he had done.

An old lady sighed: Sanshui is a child with a miserable life. I heard that she has no father and was raised by her mother.

Peng Yang's mother said, "Those who survive a great disaster will surely be blessed in the future!" Wang Sanshui's good fortune lies ahead. When Sanshui's father had the accident, his employer had reserved a good job for her as a ticket seller, saying they would take over when she was older, but for now, her mother would take over. Their future was smooth sailing.

Zhang Yunying's mother said: "There is such a thing. Then there is hope for the future. The job of a ticket seller is good. When I grow up, I can find a good husband and live a prosperous life.

Peng Yang's mother: "Sanshui is still young and naive. Her mother has to worry about her. Why did she go to the river to play in the middle of the day? She fell in and almost drowned. It was so dangerous. If she died, how would her mother live?

Several old ladies sighed: "Oh, her mother must have been worried sick. Fortunately, Chairman Liao rescued her."

Several old ladies were standing in front of a pork shop and talking. Peng Yang's mother pointed at a piece of meat and said, "Give me a pound of fat and

"Then he continued: "In the future, you must keep your children away from the river. If you can't swim, don't dare to play in the river. The water on the other side of the riverbank is deep.

It's covering the adults' heads.

A shirtless strong man was standing in the pork shop. He was stunned when he heard it. "What? Is Wang Sanshui's mother Cui Mengrou?"

One of the old ladies: "Yeah. What's the matter?"

Peng Yang's mother: Pull the pork for me first. You also know Cui Mengrou.

The shirtless man said, "Wang Sanshui is my cousin. How could I not know she fell into the river? She's already in her seventies or eighties, how could she not know not to go to the river to play?"

;

An old lady said: "What nonsense are you talking about? Sanshui is a boy, obviously he is only three or four years old! How can you say he is in his seventies or eighties?"

Peng Yang's mother: "But his mother's name is indeed Cui Mengrou. Her name is written on the banner. My daughter went to see it and told me about it yesterday.

The shirtless burly man threw the meat cleaver onto the chopping board and said, "It's not a boy, it's a girl! She was dressed up as a boy by her stepmother. This vicious woman is harming my niece Sanshui. This vicious woman is trying to drown my niece Sanshui.

Peng Yang's mother: "You can't say that! How could a mother kill her child? If you keep saying that, we'll take you to the police station."

Zhang Yunying's mother glared at him: "What nonsense are you talking about!"

The sturdy man glared and wailed, "Go ahead, my poor niece Sanshui. Her mother is not her biological mother, but her stepmother. She abuses Sanshui and wants to take over her job and the pension her father left her. In a few years, Sanshui will be able to get a good job on her own, and she's trying to kill her. Go to the police station and sue this vicious stepmother."

The women had no time to bother buying meat; they all followed the strong man to the police station. As soon as he arrived, he started wailing, "This vicious woman is killing my poor niece, Sanshui."

The police officer said: You can’t say such nonsense. If it is false, you will be charged with slander and sent to a farm for reform.

The strong man paused in his howling, a little hesitant. After all, he was just guessing, without any evidence, and Sanshui, that damned girl, was determined to follow this vicious woman.

Peng Yang's mother said righteously: "Comrade Public Security, you are trying to scare the people. Sanshui looks like he is three or four years old. If he is really in his seventies or eighties, then he has been abused. Since we have encountered this matter, we must get to the bottom of it. Whether it is true or not, it is also because Sanshui's uncle cares about the child.

The other old ladies said, "This matter needs to be thoroughly investigated. You are also being frightened. What if this is true... Fortunately, Chairman Liao passed by, otherwise the child would not be alive.

The police were scolded by several old ladies and quickly said: Let's investigate it right away.

Peng Yang's mother said, "How are you investigating? I'm going with you to Sanshui. I won't believe it unless I see it with my own eyes." The strong man said, "I want to see my poor niece too. Her mother is so vicious. She won't let me see her. Whenever I pass by their door, she hits me with things."

The police are collecting evidence and conducting investigations, so naturally they go first.

Wang Sanshui's home.

Wang Sanshui was washing clothes at home. She was so smart. After listening to Jiang Mi's words today, she took off all the sheets and quilt covers and put them in the basin when she got home. She didn't wash much, just sat there and smiled foolishly. Tomorrow, she will be able to be like sister Jiang Mi.

Hearing some noise behind her, she began to rub the sheets and quilt covers with all her might. A group of people stood in front of her, and she looked up at them. An old woman said, "That's the child, Sanshui." She came over and said, "Sanshui, why are you washing clothes?" Another old woman said, "How can such a young child wash sheets and quilt covers? They are so heavy, how can a child wash them?" Wang Sanshui looked up and said, "Yes, I can wash them. I'm very capable. I could wash sheets when I was four years old."

Peng Yang's mother: "Poor Sanshui, how old are you now?"

Wang Sanshui: "I'm eight years old." Then he started rubbing the clothes again.

An old lady said: "Eight years old! How can he be eight years old! Sanshui, stop washing him. We won't wash him anymore from now on. This stepmother is so cruel. She tortures a child like this. I would believe her if she said she was only three years old.

Zhang Yunying's mother started to cry and quickly helped her up: We won't wash them. No child would wash bed sheets.

There are also children in some families who wash clothes and cook early, but they cannot wash bed sheets. The thick and wet sheets are too heavy for children to wash.

Wang Sanshui insisted: No, I have to wash.

The other residents in the yard heard the commotion outside and came out. A little boy said, "If Wang Sanshui doesn't wash, her stepmother will beat her. She can't not wash.

The public security comrades were furious when they heard this. "What about the Women's Federation? They didn't even care about this matter and let the child be abused." The little boy's grandmother said, "How can the Women's Federation do this? Sanshui is willing to follow her stepmother." Wang Sanshui: "My mother said that as long as I eat less and work more, my father will come back to find me." The little boy's grandmother sighed when she heard this.

Wang Sanshui's uncle then walked up to her and said, "Niece Sanshui, I am your wealthy uncle. Look how you've been abused. Now she wants to throw you into the river to drown you. What a cruel heart she has. From now on, I will raise you. Your father knows the way to my house. If you come back, please come back. Otherwise, I will move to your house and your father will be able to find you when he comes back."

Wang Sanshui's face turned pale with fear and he shrank behind Zhang Yunying's mother.

Peng Yang's mother spat at Wang Youcai and said, "You are so calculating that the beads have fallen on our faces. Her stepmother is not a good person, and you are not a good person either. Look at the child.

Scared. You retreat.

Wang Youcai:

This lady was just saying something nice to him, how come she changed her attitude so quickly?

Zhang Yunying's mother snorted coldly, "He's still in his seventies or eighties, and he doesn't even know how old a child is." The police officer also scolded him, "Stay away." Wang Youcai, stared at by several elderly women, took a few steps back.

The female police officer squatted in front of Wang Sanshui and touched a piece of peach cake to her: "Sanshui, eat it, don't be afraid. Auntie wants to ask you something. How did you fall into the river yesterday? Why did you go to the river to play?"

Wang Sanshui didn't even dare to take the peach cake. She shrank back again, lowering her head. "I'm going to the river to find my dad."

An old lady: "Did your stepmother coax you into going there? Did your stepmother throw her into the river?"

Wang Sanshui had already begun to tremble. She shrank back, as if she was extremely afraid of the group of people in front of her. She shook her head desperately: "It has nothing to do with my mother. My mother didn't kick me into the river. I fell into the river accidentally.

This is the child who was kicked into the river by his stepmother. The child looks like he is scared after being beaten.

Everyone was furious. What a cruel woman! She kicked such a poor child into the river. How could she be so cruel?

Zhang Yunying's mother was very kindhearted. Tears fell down her cheeks as she hugged Wang Sanshui. "Sanshui, don't be afraid. No one can bully you anymore."

Poor child, kicked into the river by her stepmother, yet she still spoke kindly to her. My heart aches. How could she be so vicious? She took the child's pension and raised him like this, and now, for her job, she wants to kill him.

This vicious woman deserves to be fryed in oil and cut into pieces! She deserves to be shot a hundred times.

"We can't let this vicious woman go. I will take care of this matter! She is destined to be shot." Peng Yang's mother said indignantly. She not only wants to return the job to the child, but also the pension.

Several old ladies talked at once, wishing they could throw the person into a frying pan and fry her, and then shoot her in the head.

Zhang Sanshui was terrified. Zhang Yunying's mother said, "Sisters, this child is so pitiful! Look how frightened she is. She must be so afraid of her stepmother. I'll take the child home first and make her a meal. Although I won't be going with you, my heart is with you. Don't let that vicious stepmother go!"

An old lady: Yes, children, don’t follow me.

She was frightened. Steam her a bowl of egg custard. The egg is mine. I’ll make it up to you when we get back.”

Zhang Yunying's mother: "My family still needs eggs for my children"

A group of people set out for the bus station in a mighty procession. Someone in the yard led the way. I knew she was cruel, but I didn't know her heart was not only black but also filthy.

When we arrived at the bus station, we found Cui Mengrou. A few old ladies first held her down and beat her up. The police shouted from behind, "Don't beat her to death! She's guilty! She should be handed over to the police and they will punish her!"

Cui Mengrou was used to a comfortable life. The bus station had let Sanshui's father down. The accident was caused by the bus. She was a widow, and she had a very good reputation at the bus station. The bus station had always treated Cui Mengrou well, but now they were shocked to see a group of old ladies beating her.

Comrades at the bus station advised: "Stop it, everyone. Don't beat Comrade Cui." But no one dared to go forward, for fear of being beaten along with him.

Didn't you see that the two police officers were just standing there watching? They just shouted but didn't take action?

Don’t beat Cui Mengrou half to death. Her hair is about to be pulled out. She cries out in pain. This is so unfair. You are going to beat me to death.

An old lady said, "We'd rather beat you to death than dirty our hands. You're a shameless, black-hearted, vicious stepmother. We already know that you abused Sanshui, tricked him into the river, and kicked him in.

Peng Yang's mother: "Just wait until you get shot at the police station."

Cui Mengrou was stunned. How could this matter be exposed? She howled, "Who the hell framed me? It's not easy to be a stepmother. I treated Sanshui wholeheartedly. For her, I never thought of remarrying. I have been devoted to her my whole life. Now someone says I kicked Sanshui into the river. Is this still human? They are trying to force me to death.

An old lady said: "You took such good care of Sanshui. You made her work hard and eat less. You even made her wash the sheets. She was so hungry that she looked like a three or four-year-old child."

Cui Mengrou cried: "Sanshui is a very thoughtful child and can't eat. I also don't let her work, but she has been sensible since she was young. If I don't let her work, she will cry and refuse.

Peng Yang's mother: "Bah, shameless. You threatened the child not to tell anyone, but how can the child know what to say and what not to say. You want to get away with it with a few words, that's impossible. This matter is easy to investigate. Someone must have seen you taking Sanshui to the riverbank, and maybe someone saw you kicking Sanshui into the water. If you did this, you can't get away." She clasped her hands together, "Fortunately, there is Liao Zhu.

Xi, you saved Sanshui's life, otherwise, poor Sanshui would have lost his life.

The other old ladies said, "Let's split up and investigate. I'll tell my daughters to go ask around on the street after get off work. I'm sure someone saw it."

Cui Mengrou shuddered, this incident was sure to be witnessed by someone, she cried: "Sanshui said yesterday that she missed her father. Her father used to love fishing by the river, so I took her to the river. She didn't dare to bring up Chairman Liao at this time, because that would prove that she threw Sanshui into the river.

Even if she had to make an argument, she had to do it at the last minute. Damn that bastard who reported her.

The old lady snorted coldly: "Don't try to quibble. Sanshui has already said that it was you who kicked her. Otherwise, we would know that now we want you to have no way to prove yourself! I don't believe that there is no witness.

Two police officers arrested her and took her to the police station. They glanced at Wang Youcai and said, "You also come to the police station to take a statement."

Wang Youcai now believed most of it. He had really hit the jackpot. He said, "Cui Mengrou, you vicious woman! Give up your pension and your job. From now on, Sanshui will be taken care of by me!"

Peng Yang's mother rolled her eyes. It was a nice thought, but now was not the time to talk about it. She had to send this vicious woman to the brink of death first.

Cui Mengrou only then saw Wang Youcai and started cursing angrily: You just want Sanshui's pension and a good job, you are framing me, you bastard, you will not die a good death.

A group of people carried Cui Mengrou away in a mighty manner. Several old ladies had to go to the Public Security Bureau to take a statement first, and then go to the textile factory to find people to investigate witnesses.

The bus station was buzzing with discussion about what had just happened. This was too abominable, a stepmother killing her son!

Director Fang walked towards the office, but before he even entered, he saw his secretary running out in a hurry. "Something's happened to the director, something serious has happened." Director Fang was unhappy: "What do you mean something's happened to me? I'm fine, aren't I?"

The secretary's forehead was covered in sweat. "Director, the shuttle bus had an accident. A rock rolled down the mountain and hit the bus."

Director Fang slumped to the ground, his voice trembling: "Say it again! Which bus?"

The secretary wiped the sweat off his sleeve. "It's the Beijing bus. Master Zhang just got to the Huangshi intersection when the car... got crushed under a huge rock." Director Fang's head tilted and he fainted.
