Xiaofang felt a little embarrassed after hearing this. She tugged at the corner of Shen Anan's clothes and whispered, "Sister Anan, I'd better go back. My mother..."
But Shen Anan knew in her heart that with Wang Dacui's temper, she would definitely take it out on Xiaofang.
Touching Xiaofang's head, she said softly: "Xiaofang, don't be afraid, I'm here, let's go to Uncle Shen's house for a meal."
Uncle Shen smiled and said, "That's right, Xiaofang, you and this girl can come without any worries. I don't have anything else, but I can still afford a bowl of hot noodles."
Seeing that everyone said so, Xiaofang was afraid that her mother would beat her, so she nodded.
Shen Anan took Xiaofang and followed Uncle Shen to the next door.
Next door is also a small rural courtyard. Although the courtyard is simple, it is kept clean.
Uncle Shen’s wife was a warm-hearted old lady. When she heard that Shen Anan and Xiaofang were coming, she quickly got busy. After a while, water was boiling in the pot, ready to be cooked.
Shen Anan and Xiaofang sat on the kang, and Uncle Shen and his wife also sat down. Uncle Shen poured a cup of hot water for Shen Anan and said with a smile: “Little girl, drink some water first to warm your body.”
Xiaofang looked at the noodles in the pot, her eyes shining with anticipation. She had never eaten such hot noodles at home.
I didn’t expect that I could still eat it today after eating it once last night!
Shen Anan felt a little emotional when she saw Xiaofang like this. She glanced at the room again and saw how shabby it was. She knew that Uncle Shen's family situation was not good, but he was still so enthusiastic. She was grateful.
The noodles were cooked, and Grandpa Shen's wife served a bowl to each person. Although it was simple, it made people feel extremely warm in this cold winter day.
Shen Anan and Xiaofang were eating noodles. Uncle Shen and his wife looked at them and smiled lovingly. They knew that their family conditions were limited, but being able to give the children a hot meal made them feel warm in their hearts.
Halfway through the meal, Shen Anan looked up at Uncle Shen, wondering whether he should first find out where Shen Xiuxiu's home was.
So he opened his mouth, with a hint of inquiry in his voice: "Uncle Shen, your family has always lived in Wangjiazhuang, right? There is a person called..."
Before he finished speaking, there was a noise outside. When they went out to see, they found that it was the public security comrades who came. They came to investigate the abandonment case reported by Shen Anan yesterday, and they found out that they had come to Wangjiazhuang.
When Wang Dacui from next door saw the police coming, her eyes rolled and her expression immediately changed. She rushed forward, quickly pulled Xiaofang with her, and walked up to the police with tears in her eyes.
“Comrade Public Security, you have to make the decision for me. This Shen Anan wants to kidnap my daughter!”
When Shen Anan heard this, her brows tightened, and she pointed at Wang Dacui and raised her voice: "Wang Dacui, you are slandering me!"
Looking at this scene, several public security comrades were also confused. They looked at Shen Anan, then at Wang Dacui, obviously wondering who was telling the truth.
Uncle Shen and his wife stood up at this time. Uncle Shen walked to the police and said in a loud and firm voice: "Comrade, don't believe her. It was the old Wang family who didn't want their daughter. Comrade Shen Anan brought Xiaofang back with good intentions. She just asked us at the entrance of the village to find out whose child she was from!"
Turning around, Uncle Shen scolded Wang Dacui: "Wang Dacui, do you still have any shame? It was obviously you who threw Xiaofang away, so they brought the child back. Who are you being honest with by doing this?!"
After being scolded by Uncle Shen, Wang Dacui's face turned red and white. She opened her mouth and wanted to refute, but when she saw the stern look of the public security comrade, she swallowed her words back and didn't dare to say a word.
The old man also quickly agreed: "Yes, yes, we can all testify that this girl is a good person, she did not abduct the child, otherwise, she could ask other people, she asked many people to find out whose child Xiaofang is!"
After the public security officers listened to what Grandpa Shen and his wife said, and looked at Shen Anan’s determined eyes, they began to believe that Shen Anan was innocent.
Especially the next moment, Shen Anan also said: “If I really abducted a child, I can take the child to the public security bureau to report the case, then wouldn’t I be stupid!”
Everyone understood what this said.
yes!
Which person who trafficks children would bring the children to the police station? Isn't that walking into a trap?
But investigation is still necessary.
The public security personnel put in a lot of effort in Wangjiazhuang. They went from house to house, asking questions and getting to know all the major and minor happenings in the village. Uncle Shen and his wife were not idle either. They told the police everything they knew and praised Shen Anan's kindness again and again.
After such an investigation, the public security personnel finally figured out the whole story. They were sure that Shen Anan was innocent, not only did she not traffic in children, but she was also a good person who saved people in distress.
Wang Dacui lost her previous arrogance in front of the police. She bowed her head and admitted her fault. The police sternly warned her: "Wang Dacui, you are lucky this time. If you dare to frame a good person next time, you will not only be criticized and educated, but you will have to go to jail!"
After hearing this, Wang Dacui turned pale with fright. She nodded repeatedly and promised that she would never dare to do it again.
As soon as the police left, Wang Dacui's face was drawn. She pointed at Xiaofang and cursed: "Go back home, you disgraceful thing!"
Xiaofang's eyes were filled with tears. She lowered her head and dared not speak. She could only go back to the house silently.
Even so, Wang Dacui kept complaining, "Your own granddaughter took the gift money and ran away, and now you are meddling in our Wang family's affairs."
Grandpa Shen and his wife felt very uncomfortable after hearing this, but they also knew that what Wang Dacui said was true. Their disappointing granddaughter had indeed done something shameful, so they could only lower their heads and sulk.
