Village chief Luo Changzheng saw Qian Meijuan crying and asked, "Xiaojuan, what's wrong? Who bullied you?"

When Qian Meijuan saw that it was the village chief, she cried even harder, and while crying she complained to him intermittently: "Grandpa Village Chief, my grandma is partial and favors boys over girls. She makes me work all day long and beats and scolds me. My brother doesn't even go to school, but she won't let him do anything."

Although Qian Meijuan acted very aggrieved, village chief Luo Changzheng found it difficult to empathize. Qian Xiaoshu was also a boy, so young, how could that old lady be willing to order him around like that?

He was too lazy to care about the Qian family's trivial matters and only said lightly: "Stop crying," and then asked: "Is your father at home?"

Qian Meijuan wiped her tears and said, "My grandma is at home, and my mom is working in the fields."

She didn't mention her grandfather, father, and brother because the three men with the surname Qian all did the same thing every day, just wandering around. It was only when her grandfather got older and couldn't wander around anymore that he started playing mahjong instead.

Luo Changzheng nodded and said, "I'm going into the house to talk to your grandma about something!"

Afterwards, Luo Changzheng entered the main room.

Old Mrs. Qian was leisurely leaning against a pile of quilts watching TV. When she saw Luo Changzheng enter the house, she said, "Village Chief, what brings you to my house?"

Luo Changzheng asked directly, "Is Xiaoshu home recently?"

When Old Lady Qian heard the village chief asking about Qian Xiaoshu, she said nonchalantly, "Doesn't that little bastard live at the lunatic's house? Why is he coming to my house to ask questions?"

Luo Changzheng said patiently, "That child has called you grandma for years. Why do you treat him so badly? He's been living with someone else for several months, and you don't even care about him?"

Old Mrs. Qian replied unhappily, "Isn't that because someone is thinking about you? What does it have to do with us?"

Luo Changzheng was speechless at Mrs. Qian's behavior. He said angrily, "Sister-in-law, what can I say to you? What crime did that child commit that you beat and scolded him in your house? The child has been missing for several days now, and your family doesn't know anything about it?"

"What? You said that little bastard is missing?" Old Mrs. Qian suddenly became excited.

Luo Changzheng didn't want to waste any more time talking to her, so he said, "He found him again. He was abducted by human traffickers and taken hundreds of miles away, but he managed to escape."

Upon hearing the news, Mrs. Qian felt a little lost and thought it would be better if it was really lost.

Luo Changzheng continued, "I'll have someone over there send the child back to you in the next couple of days. If the child comes back this time, you should take good care of him and stop taking him for granted."

Even if I raise a cat or a dog, I will have feelings for it, let alone a child? If the child comes back and I hear that you abuse him again, I will not turn a blind eye to it anymore..."

Luo Changzheng said something to Old Lady Qian and then left the Qian family.

Two days later, a police car drove into Luojiagou again and asked the villagers how to get to Qian's house.

Wow, this is something new in Luojiagou. In the past, it was rare to even see an ordinary car, but in just a few days, police cars have come twice, and each time they were heading towards the Qian family.

There were no secrets in the village; every villager was a gossip expert. The last time someone came to the Qian family's house to inquire about Qian Jindou and his wife, some villagers guessed they must have committed some crime and hadn't been caught, so they came to their hometown.

I don't know why they came this time. Some villagers were curious and followed them to Qian's house to see what was going on.

When I met villagers on the way, I promoted the event to them, which attracted more villagers to join in the fun.

After the police car stopped in front of Qian's house, two policemen got out of the car and knocked on the door.

Two minutes later, Mrs. Qian opened the door and saw the police officers in uniform. She couldn't help but feel nervous.

The other party asked politely, "Excuse me, is this Qian Jindou's family?"

The last time the police came, the Qian family wasn't in the village. But when they came back and heard the police were looking for their second son, they guessed that the second son and his wife had done something wrong.

The phone call to the second son's house has been unreachable these days. Old Mrs. Qian feels inexplicably anxious and always feels that something bad is going to happen.

The moment she saw the police, Mrs. Qian panicked to the extreme. In theory, apart from abusing Qian Xiaoshu, she had not done anything illegal, but she was frightened when she saw the police.

Before Mrs. Qian responded to the police, a bystander became anxious and responded on her behalf: "Comrade police, this is the Qian family. We are the only family with the surname Qian in our village."

Ever since Shen Nan and Qian Jingui separated from their family, the people in Luojiagou have consciously separated the third family from the Qian family.

Especially since Qian Jingui worked outside all year round, Shen Nan also became well-known in the village.

Seeing that Mrs. Qian was a little nervous, the police officer said gently, "Don't be nervous, Auntie. We are here today for good news. Your lost child has been found, and we have brought him back today."

When the news came out, Mrs. Qian wasn't surprised at all, but she wasn't as nervous as before. The expressions of the people around her were more varied.

The Qian family's lost child? Which child? Shen Nan's child? It's been missing for ten years. If it were really found, Shen Nan's madness would probably be completely cured.

The villagers hadn't heard about Qian Xiaoshu's disappearance yet. This was mainly because Xiaoshu didn't interact much with the villagers, so no one would have noticed if a child hadn't been seen for a few days.

When the policeman stuck his head into the car and called Sun Xiaohao to get out, the villagers were confused when they saw the very unfamiliar little face.

Who is this kid? I've never seen him in Luojiagou before!

Before the villagers could figure out what was going on, they saw the police officer holding Sun Xiaohao's hand and walking to the door of the Qian family's house. He said to Mrs. Qian, "Auntie, you have to take good care of the child this time.

We can’t contact his parents now, and due to some special circumstances, it’s not convenient to send him to be raised by his parents.

The child said his grandmother's home was in Luojiagou, so we sent him here."

This time, not only the villagers, but even Old Lady Qian was completely bewildered. The village chief had come and said Qian Xiaoshu was missing and would be returned in the next couple of days. But this child wasn't Qian Xiaoshu! She wasn't willing to raise the bastard child her daughter-in-law had given birth to, so she couldn't possibly keep this child, who had nothing to do with the Qian family.

So she said to the police: "Comrade police, this is a mistake, this is not our child!"

The police officer said: "The information about your family was given by the child himself, how could it be wrong?"

The police officer was about to ask Sun Xiaohao to repeat what he had said, but unexpectedly, Sun Xiaohao broke free from his hand, threw herself on Old Lady Qian, hugged her thighs, and called out affectionately: "Grandma, I missed you so much!"
