Li Zhuzi and Old Man Li are actually somewhat related.

Old Man Li was originally from Li Family Village, where Li Zhuzi lived. He later went out to make a living and there was no news of him for half his life. His family thought he had died long ago.

During the three years of severe drought, many people in Lijia Village also died, including Old Man Li's only remaining relative, a nephew.

It was around this time that Old Man Li finally managed to contact his family, and he was particularly saddened to learn that he only had one nephew left.

Since the elderly couple didn't have any children, they wanted to take their nephew to live with them in their old age.

After receiving the news, the nephew showed off in front of Li Zhuzi.

Li Zhuzi felt envious, but he didn't show it.

Just then, someone in the village bought a wife for a lot of money, and he suddenly realized that selling people was very profitable.

So they found human traffickers and expressed their desire to work with them.

The traffickers said they lack informants in the city, not in the countryside, because children and girls abducted in the countryside are not as valuable as those in the city.

Upon hearing this, Li Zhuzi immediately thought of Old Man Li's nephew and casually remarked that he wished he were his nephew so he could go to the city.

Unexpectedly, the human traffickers became interested as soon as they heard this.

After asking carefully, they said it was worth a try and they would make the arrangements.

Then, the old man and his wife broke into his house and were killed. His nephew was also pushed into the river and drowned on his way to find him. Then, Li Zhuzi took his place.

He only told the villagers that he had found a job in the city and had taken his mother and wife with him.

I never went back after that.

As for the relatives who come to the door, they are all people sent by human traffickers to "deliver goods." Of course, many of them are hired temporarily. These people don't know what they are delivering. As long as they deliver the goods, they will get paid. Most of them are petty thugs or the like.

Based on information provided by the Li family, the police station began an investigation.

His identity was quickly verified, and it was indeed as he said. As for the human trafficker he mentioned who was in contact with their village, the police did not find him, but they did find the family that had bought the wife.

Now, the once innocent city girl who was abducted has been completely reduced to a rural woman, having given birth to four children. When the police asked her if she wanted to go home, she refused.

She said that she was already in this state, and taking her back would only bring shame to her family, so it was better to just pretend that they didn't have her as their daughter.

Hearing this, everyone was saddened, but they respected her choice.

As for the thugs who helped deliver the goods, they also found a few. They were all paid to do things and couldn't say anything about the people who paid them, probably because they were pretending.

So the trail went cold again here!

Moreover, the police station also discovered that their child, Li Datou, was also abducted and was not adopted at all!

Li Zhuzi and his wife were infertile, and he didn't know where the child came from, but he said it was a reward from his third brother.

The child was too young to remember anything when they arrived, so they treated them well and fed them well. Within a few days, the child began to regard them as their own parents.

As for whether Li Datou knew about the situation at home? The answer is no, because Li Zhuzi was afraid that he would go out and talk nonsense, so he did everything behind his back.

The police station is currently searching for his biological parents, but several years have passed and they have no leads, making the search difficult.

In addition, because he was raised by human traffickers, although he is a boy, he is old enough to remember things. Currently, no one wants to adopt him, so it is estimated that he can only be sent to an orphanage for the time being.

But Li Datou was spoiled rotten by his family and was extremely pampered. After entering the police station, he kept crying and wanted to find his parents. The police told him that the Li family members were not his parents, but he wouldn't listen. He even struggled when they were sent away, which was pitiful.
