It seems someone is chasing us.
Chen Ximei's voice grew louder.
But the Chen family still didn't make a move.
A burly man arrived and immediately began shouting and cursing.
"What the hell are you doing?! I already said it was the Chen family who agreed to it. How can you make me lose face like this?!"
Chen Ximei shouted regardless of everything.
At that moment, she also saw Lu Xiaomei.
She immediately grabbed the man's arm and pointed at Lu Xiaomei.
"You're mistaken. That's the person my parents told you about."
The obese man looked him up and down.
He then looked away in disgust.
What use is someone who looks so thin and skinny?
I can't do any housework.
Lu Xiaomei felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave.
Her mother actually wanted to introduce her to someone like that!
She kept backing away.
Chen Ximei's hand was firmly held by the butcher.
She begged Lu Xiaomei for help.
Lu Xiaomei covered her ears and turned to run away.
They disappeared in no time.
Chen Ximei kept cursing, "You brat, you ingrate!"
She could only grip the doorknob tightly with both hands.
Butcher Wang noticed that some people around him were giving him strange looks.
He immediately became unhappy.
They tried to pull the person away forcefully.
Chen Ximei is quite strong.
Butcher Wang was actually quite pleased.
The pressure on his hands did not loosen.
He shouted a few times towards the Chen family's house.
The person who had just kept the door closed immediately came out.
"Brother Wang, what's wrong?"
"You accepted my betrothal gifts, didn't you say everything was agreed upon? Why are you still thinking of running away?"
Chen's mother smiled obsequiously and replied, "I guess that slut forgot. I'll tell her again."
As he spoke, he grabbed Chen Ximei by the ear and pulled her aside.
He threatened in a low voice: "Your husband has been dead for so many years. The fact that you can remarry is all thanks to my hard work. Don't be ungrateful. Let me tell you, he's the kind of person who can kill a pig all by himself. You'd better think carefully about your own worth."
"But Mother..."
"I've already accepted the bride price. If you behave well, the Chen family will still be your maternal family. Otherwise, just pretend I'm not your mother. Your son is still at the farm. Your eldest son isn't your biological son, so why would he care whether you live or die?"
"If it weren't for your brother's children, you wouldn't have anyone to take care of you in your old age. You should think carefully before you speak."
Chen Ximei looked at the man standing at the door.
I'm still very scared.
Seeing this, Chen's mother added another strong dose of venom: "I have already told your eldest son about you stealing the child."
"Mother! How could you!" This was her bargaining chip to get her eldest son to save the person. If she waited a few more days, she could use this secret to get her youngest son out.
Chen Ximei's accusing gaze had no effect on her mother.
She looked completely indifferent.
Chen Ximei's face turned completely ashen.
Chen's mother gave her a push.
They had no choice but to go back with Butcher Wang.
Originally, Butcher Wang just wanted to find someone to come back and take care of his family.
His son broke his head and has a habit of hitting people.
He's busy slaughtering pigs at the factory again.
I simply can't find the time.
Although Chen Ximei is a bit older, she looks sturdy and is quite strong.
Even if he were accidentally hit by his son, he could withstand it.
This was a tough job. He had originally planned to take good care of Chen Ximei, but she dared to run away...
She needs to know his methods too!
From then on, Chen Ximei was extremely busy, but dared not utter a single complaint.
At first, she was often beaten so badly by the butcher's son that her bones ached.
She thought that even if he was just a fool, she could fight back.
But she miscalculated; the butcher's son was no pushover either. Even if he was immature, people his age were exactly the kind of people even dogs wouldn't want.
She cries and makes a scene, and she'll tell everyone that her stepmother hits her...
Butcher Wang forbade him from hitting people, but tacitly allowed him to run Chen Ximei around.
Under the double blow to her body and mind, Chen Ximei's face soon turned sallow and her hair became dry.
Unconsciously, she recalled the time when she had ordered Lu Xiangze to take care of the whole family.
How similar he is to the butcher's son.
It's like karma...
Of course, that's a story for another time.
Qingshui Brigade.
After Lu Xiaomei ran home, she never mentioned Chen Ximei again.
He only said that he had already reported it to the police.
I believe we'll have a result soon.
Lu Xiangze understood perfectly well that Lu Xiaomei must be lying.
He knew the Chen family's character all too well.
Chen Ximei trusts her family the most. If anyone else knows about her background, it's probably only the Chen family.
At the time, he thought it would take a lot of effort.
Surprisingly, that family was afraid of ghosts.
Coincidentally, he arrived at night, which startled Chen's mother, who answered all her questions without hesitation.
Unfortunately, Chen Ximei's decision was made on a whim, and she only knew that the family seemed to be well-off.
I don't know what those people's names are.
He lost everything else that could prove his identity, but which was worthless.
This lead has temporarily gone cold.
By the time Chen's mother finally realized he was a real person, it was too late.
She has said everything she should and shouldn't have said.
They even revealed their schemes against Chen Ximei.
They're planning to use her to make some money; they've already chosen someone.
Chen's mother looked at Lu Xiangze with trepidation.
I wonder if he will stop them.
Lu Xiangze said nothing more and left the Chen family directly.
At the time, he wanted to see what choice the Chen family would make.
Now we see Lu Xiaomei's reaction.
Naturally, I knew the Chen family's choice.
Sure enough, like father, like son; the wickedness of Chen's mother and Chen Ximei was indeed passed down from generation to generation.
Evil people will be punished by evil people. Being betrayed by her most cherished family members is probably going to be a real problem for Chen Ximei.
Lu Xiangze did not hide these things from Su Qiao.
Including matters related to one's own background.
The trail has now basically gone cold.
Recently, with Xiaobai's help, he successfully conjured a new jade ring.
When he showed the jade ring to Li Xiangqian, his eyes were filled with tears...
Unfortunately, all he can confirm right now is that his father is Lu Haoyun.
Moreover, this person is still missing.
J City.
Inside the compound.
The man slammed the door shut and left.
When the woman chased after it, all she could see was the exhaust fumes from the jeep.
He went back indignantly.
The old man stood by the window, watching the man leave.
Her eyes were full of reluctance.
"Auntie, does Brother Lu really hate me?"
"You're a good kid. He's getting old now. Does he want to find a fairy godmother?"
"Auntie~"
After seeing the woman in red off, the old lady looked at her husband standing by the window.
"Old Lu!"
The old man slowly turned his head and sighed silently.
Why bother?
"He won't even find a girlfriend, and I haven't even had a grandson yet!"
"But Haoyun, no, Yuntian hasn't forgiven us yet."
“I don’t care if his name is Yuntian or Haoyun, he’s still our son. Is it wrong for me to find him a partner? Doesn’t he even know how old he is…”
"We were wrong..."
The old man's sigh dissipated silently in the wind.
