Zeng Xiaomao felt as if the sky had fallen when he heard this. His young face was filled with despair and fear, and he cried out in tears:

"Dad, I'm your son. You loved me so much before, buying me toys and playing games with me. How could you not want me?

I will definitely be obedient in the future. I will do whatever you ask me to do and I will never act naughty again. Please don't abandon me, okay?"

He cried heart-wrenchingly, and his little body kept shaking, but Zeng Qiang didn't even look at him. There was no expression on his face. No matter how Zeng Xiaomao cried and threw a tantrum, he never said a word, like a cold statue.

But how could Zeng Xiaomao give up so easily? Although he was young, Uncle Da Niu's daughter had been beaten or scolded since she was a child, and her life was miserable.

Although he is a boy, he is not their biological son. If he goes to live in Daniu's house, he will definitely not have a good life in the future.

But it was different when he was with his father. He had been protected by his mother since he was a child and was a little bully in the Zeng family. Not only could he eat whatever he wanted, but he could also enjoy all the love from his mother. Even though his father didn't spoil him that much, he was very good to him and would never let him suffer any grievances.

Yue Wenying heard Zeng Xiaomao's noise and frowned. She said with disgust, "Jianhua, this child's crying is making me upset. Please send him to the village chief immediately. Let the village chief negotiate with the Daniu family. We will not get involved in this matter. Oh, and bring the personal report as well."

"good."

After Lin Jianhua and his men left, Lin Nanxi looked at Zeng Qiang and said sincerely, "Uncle, do you want to go to the Magic City with us? There are more opportunities there, and the environment is better than in the village."

Zeng Qiang didn't feel comfortable continuing to trouble his niece. After all, his parents had already troubled her enough. How could a grown man like him take advantage of his niece? So he quickly waved his hand and said:

"No, I'll stay in the village, but my parents will ask Xixi, my sister, and my brother-in-law to take care of me for a while. When I'm settled, I'll bring them over."

Hearing this, Lin Nanxi disapproved and said, "Uncle, are you sure it's okay for you to stay here? Let's not talk about whether Zeng Xiaomao will come to pester you every other day, even the gossip in the village is not nice. Even if you don't consider yourself, you should consider your cousin, right?"

"My cousin is only fourteen now, in the throes of adolescence, and her mind is still immature. Are you sure she won't have any problems if she lives in this environment full of gossip for a long time? Have you considered the impact this will have on her growth and psychology?"

After hearing Lin Nanxi's words, Zeng Qiang fell silent. After all, his daughter's future was the most important thing. But he felt embarrassed for a grown man to depend on his niece for a living.

After all, he is a man and should be the pillar of the family, but now he has to rely on his niece for support. This gap has tormented his self-esteem, and he unconsciously reveals an expression of embarrassment and difficulty on his face.

Seeing that his uncle was hesitant, Lin Nanxi continued to persuade him, "After going to the Magic City, you can personally take care of your grandparents and show your filial piety. And your cousin can also get good educational resources, which will be of great help to her studies and future development. As for your uncle, my parents are planning to open a pastry shop soon and they are short of staff. You can help them if you go there."

Zeng Yaqing was originally worried about what her younger brother would do in the future. Now that her daughter had spoken, she quickly followed suit and advised:

"Aqiang, just agree to it. Besides, your brother-in-law and I are definitely too busy to run the shop. Since we need to hire employees to help, we might as well take you with us. After all, it's more reassuring when our own family members are working, right?

And Xixi is right. The educational resources and teaching environment in Shanghai are much better than our small place, which is also beneficial to Xiaohui's development. You can't delay your child's development just because you feel embarrassed! Think about it carefully. The child's future cannot be delayed.

Finally, after his niece and sister took turns to persuade him, Zeng Qiang could not resist the earnest persuasion and agreed to go to the Magic City.

After Lin Jianhua returned exhausted, Lin Nanxi said with a serious expression and a firm gaze:

"Let's leave at night after the villagers have washed up and gone to bed. Otherwise, if we leave during the day, a bunch of people will come up to us and ask for favors, and it will be difficult for us to leave."

When the family heard Lin Nanxi's words, they all expressed their agreement! However, at this moment, Song Li's family members all came out. It turned out that they were afraid that Lin Nanxi's parents would leave, so they hurried over and tried to extort money from them!

As soon as Song Ma entered the room, she started throwing a tantrum, yelling at the top of her lungs: "Zeng Qiang, I was a good, virgin girl. After marrying into your family, I gave birth to your children and took care of the household chores. Now you've been murdered! You must give me an explanation!"

Song Li's sister-in-law Su Yun also chimed in: "Yes, my sister-in-law is so beautiful, she was already at a disadvantage by marrying you, and now she has been killed by someone from your village. You can't escape this responsibility."

Hearing such shameless words from Song Li's family, Zeng Yaqing was so angry that she trembled all over and her face turned red.

Yue Wenying's eyes were wide open and she stamped her feet in anger. Seeing this, Lin Nanxi was about to rush out and give them each a big slap in the face, but Zeng Qiang and Lin Jianhua quickly blocked her way.

"Xixi, don't go out, or you'll definitely be stuck." Zeng Qiang said anxiously, his expression tense. "Why do you think Song Li's family didn't come to make trouble before? They must have been waiting for you to show up so they could extort money from you. After all, you're a public figure, and they're afraid of people making trouble. But they didn't hear any news of you coming, and instead they found out Zeng Xiaomao isn't my biological son, so they're worried."

Upon hearing this, Zeng Yaqing also hurriedly followed suit and advised, "Xixi, just stay in the house and don't go out, lest you get blackmailed by this family. Don't worry, your father and I are here, we can handle it."

Seeing this, Lin Nanxi was filled with anger but helpless, so she could only give up. Then she frowned and said, "Okay, if you can't solve it, let the housekeeper come forward."

"I understand. You should go back to your room, close the door, and don't come out no matter who calls you." Zeng Qiang said hurriedly.

Zeng Yaqing and his group then rushed out in high spirits. Zeng Yaqing angrily shouted, "Haha, why did Song Li die? Do I need to tell you again?"

Song Ma's eyes rolled around, and then she suddenly fell to the ground and started throwing a tantrum, slapping the ground with her hands and shouting, "I don't care. I was a good girl, and she died after marrying Zeng Qiang. This is your responsibility. Pay me, you must pay me!"
