Although they signed the agreement, the He family was still unwilling to accept it. Their long-term meal ticket was gone just like that, and to make matters worse, it was their precious son who caused the trouble. They had no choice but to grit their teeth and accept it!
After more than half a year, the He family felt they couldn't take it anymore. They used to receive an extra few dozen yuan in subsidies every month, but now that was all gone, even though they still had some savings.
However, they had become accustomed to extravagant spending. In the end, the family came up with a solution and decided to have He Erni marry Fang Huai.
But because they had signed an agreement, and were afraid that directly approaching Fang Huai would implicate He Dabao, they decided to start with that little money-loser.
Find an opportunity to take her away from the Fang family, then hide her in the countryside. When the Fang family starts to get anxious, pretend they have found her, and that way they can ask Fang Huai to marry He Erni.
He Erni waited for many days until Fang Huai's parents brought Nuonuo out of the supply and marketing cooperative. While they were buying things, she quickly picked up Nuonuo and ran away.
They hadn't run far when Nuonuo burst into tears. He Erni quickly covered her mouth, intending to take her back to the countryside as soon as possible, but they ran into Huang Jianjun, a busybody!
Huang Qinqin looked at He Erni in front of her. He Erni's face was full of anger, her eyes were wide open, and she was muttering something incessantly. She was obviously completely caught up in her emotions and had no intention of answering her question.
Huang Qinqin shook her head helplessly, reached out and gently tugged at Huang Jianjun's sleeve, and gave him a wink.
Huang Jianjun immediately understood. He carefully picked up the child and followed closely behind Huang Qinqin. The two silently walked out of the crowd.
Seeing them about to leave with the child, He Erni panicked. She rushed forward, spread her arms to block their path, and shouted angrily, "What right do you have to take my child away?! Give him back to me right now!!"
Before she could finish speaking, she reached out to grab the child, but Huang Qinqin noticed in time and stepped forward to stop her.
Huang Qinqin frowned as she looked at He Erni and questioned her sternly, "You keep saying this child is yours, fine, then tell me what your relationship with her really is? The child doesn't know you at all and doesn't want to go with you. Are you a child trafficker?!"
The elderly people watching the commotion couldn't sit still any longer! Several of them spoke up, saying, "Maybe she really is a child trafficker. When I came over just now, that little girl was crying so hard in her arms. Not only did she not comfort her, she even covered her mouth!"
"That's right, shouldn't we call the police right away? The child's family must be very worried!"
"That's right! That's right!"
Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, He Erni couldn't care less about anything else and hurriedly explained, "No, no! I'm not a kidnapper, I'm the little girl's aunt! I was just taking her home to see her grandparents!"
Huang Jianjun curled his lip: "If you really were her aunt, would she say she doesn't know you?"
He lowered his head and asked in a soft voice, "Tell your brother, do you know her?" He pointed to He Erni as he spoke.
Nuonuo shook her head and said in a childish voice, "Nuonuo, Nuonuo doesn't know her, I want Grandma... Waaaaah, waaaah, I want Grandma!"
As she spoke, Nuonuo became aggrieved, her eyes quickly welled up with tears, and she nestled in Huang Jianjun's arms, sobbing softly.
Huang Jianjun suddenly became flustered. He shook Nuonuo stiffly, his eyes revealing a hint of panic, while casting a pleading look at Huang Qinqin, as if hoping she could help him soothe the little one.
Huang Qinqin was also very troubled because she had hardly ever dealt with such a young child. But seeing Huang Jianjun's panicked appearance, she mustered up her courage and decided to try to hug Nuonuo and comfort her.
However, as soon as Huang Qinqin's hand touched Nuonuo, the little one quickly pulled away, as if she had an instinctive aversion to strangers.
Helpless, Huang Qinqin had no choice but to give up. She shrugged and indicated to Huang Jianjun that it wasn't that she was unwilling to help, but that Nuonuo was unwilling.
"Make way! Make way!" Amidst shouts, two police officers struggled to squeeze through the crowd.
As they pushed their way in, they anxiously asked, "Is there a human trafficker? Where is the person? Someone just reported it!"
The crowd made way for them, and then they realized that two elderly people who had been watching had noticed something was wrong and had gone to report the incident.
The police have arrived at the scene and, without saying a word, are taking Huang Qinqin, Huang Jianjun, and He Erni back to the police station for investigation.
Huang Qinqin and Huang Jianjun followed the police obediently, while He Erni panicked when she saw that the police were actually coming.
Seemingly realizing the situation was spiraling out of control, she hesitated for a moment, then suddenly turned and ran wildly in the opposite direction. However, she had only run a few steps before being swiftly apprehended by the police.
Seeing this, Huang Qinqin shook her head inwardly, thinking that He Erni seemed to be out of her mind.
Before the police arrived, she didn't run away; now that the police are here, she acts so impulsively. Isn't that blatantly implying to others that she has something to hide? Such foolish behavior is truly incomprehensible.
He Erni was genuinely stunned, because she had never anticipated this situation. She had always thought that as long as she took Nuonuo away, it would be easy to hide her at home.
After all, she had already staked out the area beforehand. And she didn't see anything wrong with what she was doing; she didn't intend to do anything to Nuonuo, she was just hiding for a while!
However, when she saw the police arrive, He Erni felt a jolt of fear, because she belatedly realized that if the child also said he didn't know her, her act of secretly taking the child away seemed rather strange.
But since things had come to this, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and go back with the police to cooperate with the investigation.
...
"Please wait here for a moment," one of the police officers said to Huang Jianjun and his group after they arrived at the police station.
Turning to He Erni, he said, "Behave yourself, don't even think about running away. You can run away, but you can't hide from the temple!"
Huang Qinqin saw that the little one had calmed down and stopped crying, but his eyes were red and his face was covered in tears, making him look uncomfortable.
They asked the police officer, "Officer, could you please get us some water? I'd like to wash my handkerchief to wipe the little one's face, is that alright?"
Police Officer No. 1 looked at the little guy, then at Police Officer No. 2, before saying, "Alright, come into the yard with me and wash yourself."
