Chapter 74: A dozen people can make dozens of pairs...

Child bride?

Everyone was familiar with this term, but like Lin Tingyue, they did not expect that there were still child brides in this era.

Fu Qiao was even more surprised, but why did Shi Feizhou look confused? Didn't he know about it?

Being ignorant is also an accomplice!

[The girl hiding behind Shi Feizhou was bought by Shi Feizhou's parents from a fellow villager more than 20 years ago. The girl has been working for the Shi family since she arrived. If she doesn't listen to them, she will be beaten all over her body and have no food to eat. 】

[She's already working so hard, and she still has to take care of Shi Feizhou, her nominal husband... Damn it, she's still a child herself. 】

Everyone looked at the person behind Shi Feizhou. The girl's hair was disheveled and her face could not be seen clearly. Being stared at by so many people, she seemed very scared. She huddled behind Shi Feizhou, holding onto his sleeves tightly.

Those were not a pair of young girl's hands at all; they were too rough, with many scars on the protruding finger joints.

Considering what Lin Tingyue just said, I wonder how many old wounds she still has on her body.

Should we call the police? Fu Qiao thought.

Just as Fu Qiao was calling the police, Shi Feizhou also went over to make a phone call.

The girl hiding behind him followed him closely.

"What? You asked Sister Lian to come to see me... Mom and Dad, aren't you just causing trouble? I was about to date the girl I like, and Sister Lian showed up... Marry? How can I marry her? Isn't she a relative's foster child in our house?"

When they heard that Shi Feizhou was dating the girl he liked, his parents thought, a college student must be better than an illiterate child bride like Sister Lian, right?

They immediately told Shi Feizhou that they had made a mistake, and after hanging up the phone, they called Sister Lian again.

Sister Lian came to the city alone to find Shi Feizhou. Shi Feizhou's parents were worried that she would get lost or could not be contacted, so they bought her a mobile phone, but it was an old one.

When the phone rang, Sister Lian's embarrassment reached a certain level and then exploded.

Although she didn't know what was going on, everything she saw since she came here had changed her perception to a great extent.

It seemed that life shouldn't be like that, and everything she had in the village was not everything to her.

But if she didn't marry Shi Feizhou, she would be beaten severely.

Sister Lian answered the phone with trembling fingers.

The person who had just spoken softly to Shi Feizhou started cursing her viciously.

"What took you so long to answer the phone, you little bitch?"

"I think she's just itching for trouble. She'll just come back and give herself a beating."

"What are you talking about? Sister Lian, come back first. We can talk about marriage later."

Hearing Pan Zhu say this, Sister Lian had some doubts. She asked in a low voice, "Are you not getting married?"

Pan Zhu said impatiently: "Yes, we are not getting married. Feizhou is still in school, so it is not convenient for him to get married. You should come back first."

After hanging up the phone, Sister Lian was a little dazed. She didn’t want to get married. Did she do something wrong?

Shi Feizhou came over and said, "Sister Lian, let me take you to the station."

Sister Lian asked in confusion: "Feizhou, my mother-in-law doesn't want me to marry you. Did I do something wrong?"

Shi Feizhou was already annoyed, and he said with a stern face: "Sister Lian, don't follow them in making trouble. We are relatives, and it is impossible for us to get married."

But since she was a child, Pan Zhu and Shi Qing told her that she would marry Shi Feizhou when she grew up. One time, when she went out to chop wood, a man kindly helped her. When she returned home, she was beaten, saying that she was restless and that she was obviously the daughter-in-law of their Shi family, but she was still thinking about hooking up with someone else.

They beat her to death and forced her to kneel in the ancestral hall. They did not give her any food or water for a whole day and night.

If she didn't marry Shi Feizhou, would she be punished more severely than this?

Sister Lian was extremely scared.

Suddenly someone took her hand and brought her into his arms.

Fu Qiao put her arm around Sister Lian's shoulders, looked at Shi Feizhou warily and said, "Why go home? I've already called the police. Your family is breaking the law. Do you know that?"

Shi Feizhou was confused, "What law have I broken?"

But he soon realized that Fu Qiao was still angry with him. She liked him so much, maybe she was jealous.

Thinking of this, Shi Feizhou coaxed Fu Qiao in a gentle voice: "After I send Sister Lian to the station, I will naturally come back to date you. Fu Qiao, don't be angry anymore."

"ha?"

Even after all this, Shi Feizhou was still thinking about a date.

It's absolutely amazing.

Fu Qiao even wanted to travel back in time and slap herself to death for being arrogant towards Shi Feizhou.

[Hmm...it's hard to judge. Why don't you make an appointment with the cell? 】

Fu Qiao laughed out loud. Sister Lian looked at her in confusion. Fu Qiao patted her shoulder and said, "Don't be afraid. The police will be here soon."

The police arrived quickly, and after understanding the situation, they decided to take Sister Lian and Shi Feizhou back to the police station, and Fu Qiao also went with them.

Song Hezhu looked around, seeing everyone's eyes glowing, and said, "Shall we go take a look too?"

"good."

"You don't want a barbecue?"

“You can eat barbecue anytime.”

"Yeah, boss, it's worth a meal."

Song Hezhu laughed and laughed. She waved her hand and everyone got into the cars. There were two cars in total. They followed the police car and went to the police station.

It was Sister Lian’s first time in a big city and her first time in a police station. She was extremely panicked. The female police officer patiently comforted her for a long time and poured her hot water. Only then did she barely calm down and slowly tell her everything that had happened in the village over the years.

As soon as the policewoman left the house, she went berserk. "This is outrageous. What's the term 'child bride'? It sounds good, but isn't it just finding a free babysitter for their family? She was beaten so badly that there was not a single spot on her body. She was so young, and they had the heart to do that to her."

The male police officer who had just interrogated her also had a serious look on his face at this moment. "First notify Pan Zhu and Shi Qing to come over, and by the way, check her biological parents."

"Um."

The policewoman returned to the room and found that Sister Lian was hungry. She planned to take her to the cafeteria for dinner. The cafeteria was on the right side of the police station. After leaving the police station gate, Fu Qiao was the first to come over. She asked, "Officer, what's going on?"

Policewoman Meng Xuan recognized her as the person who called the police. She said, "We're still investigating. Sister Lian is hungry. I'll take her to eat."

At this point, Meng Xuan asked Sister Lian softly, "Do you have any other names?"

Sister Lian shook her head.

[The parents who sold her didn't think of giving her a name, and Pan Zhu and Shi Qing who bought her didn't think of giving her a name either. But one day, they suddenly realized that they had to give this girl who was at their service a name, otherwise she would be like a dog and they wouldn't know what to call her. So they rolled their eyes and saw the lotus flowers in the pond in front of the house, so they called her Sister Lian. 】

[Wuuuuuuu The lotus grows out of the mud but remains unstained. Sister Lian will also have a better life! 】

Yes, Meng Xuan touched Sister Lian's hair distressedly, "Don't worry, we will definitely investigate it thoroughly."

Sister Lian asked: "Can I still go back?"

[Oh my God, don’t go back. Baby girls can still be bought and sold in that village. Many people buy baby girls from other villages to be child brides. Some even go to the hospital to steal babies. 】

Meng Xuan's eyes sharpened. She made a phone call and then accompanied Sister Lian to the cafeteria for dinner.

…

It wasn't until a week later that there was a conclusion to Sister Lian's case.

Lin Tingyue saw it on TV. The TV reported that the police had recently destroyed a village where human trafficking was taking place, and all the people in the village had been rescued.

However, because these people have lived in the village since childhood, have never been to school, have low cultural levels, are seriously out of touch with society, and some even do not have a sound personality, the police plan to send them to a rescue school.

The school will provide education, food and accommodation until they are able to support themselves.

At the end of the news is the contact information of the rescue school. Kind-hearted people can contact the school and donate directly.

Money-loving Lin Tingyue took out almost one-third of her treasury.

Bai Yaxin joked, "Are we willing to give up Tingyue so much?"

Lin Tingyue said seriously: "When it's time to give up, you still have to be willing to give up."

Lin Tingyue really likes money. When she was just an ordinary office worker, she was obsessed with getting rich quickly. After she became rich, she would fire her boss and go out to have fun.

In addition to money, she also hopes to make the world a better place.

[If everyone keeps mending things, the world will definitely get better and better! 】

Bai Yaxin touched Lin Tingyue's little face. Except for Lin Tingyue, they all donated a lot.

…

The day Sister Lian went to the relief school was a sunny day with no clouds in the sky. The autumn sun was no longer glaring, but felt very warm when it fell on Sister Lian's body.

The school gate slowly opened, and Sister Lian suddenly saw a pond of lotus flowers on the outer wall of the school.

The person who came out to pick up Sister Lian saw that Sister Lian had been staring at the lotus flowers. She explained, "These were all painted by the students in the school. Now that autumn has arrived, we plan to change them to ginkgo leaves. You are welcome to paint with us then."

Sister Lian was a little embarrassed. She asked, "What if I can't draw?"

"You have never been exposed to painting, so how do you know you can't draw?" The person in charge held Sister Lian's hand, which was as warm as the sun. The person in charge continued, "The school will be a new world. Welcome to come and start a brand new life for you."

Changed.

The curses that lingered in Sister Lian's ears turned into these words from the person in charge.

The sun shines on the lotus, and the petals sparkle with dazzling light. I wish Sister Lian can get her new life.

…

This weekend, Lin Tingyue is going to attend a high school reunion.

Fan Qing and Lin Tingyue were in the same class in high school. Fan Qing had not originally planned to go, but when she heard that Lin Tingyue was going, she decided to go too.

The news that Lin Tingyue was a fake daughter had spread everywhere. Without even having to think about it, she knew that someone had bad intentions.

She has to protect Lin Tingyue well.

Lin Tingyue and Fan Qing pushed open the door of the private room, and the people who were chatting animatedly inside stopped and looked at them.

The mortal enemy in the memory attacked Lin Tingyue first: "Lin Tingyue, I thought you were not coming. It must be uncomfortable to be a fake daughter mixed with real daughters, right?"

Fan Qing rolled his eyes: "How come you still can't learn to speak after all these years."

The smile on Cao Namei's face froze, and while Fan Qing and Lin Tingyue sat down, she said again: "Oh, how can I compare to you, Fan Qing, are you going back to the Feng family?"

"I am happy to be with my mother, what's it to you?"

"you……"

[Qingqing is indeed not as good as them. There seem to be only a dozen people here, but they can form dozens of couples! 】

Seize the young master? ? ?
