Chapter 149: The Right Time, Right Place, and Right People
When Fu Yanju heard the voice, she thought someone from the Chen family had come to the Fu family to cause trouble for them again, and her heart tightened.
So she quickly got up and went to meet him.
When she saw that thin figure, Fu Yanju burst into tears instantly.
"Wan... Wan'er..."
She covered her mouth and looked at her daughter standing in front of her in disbelief.
Chen Wan'er looks exactly like Fu Yanju. Both are thin and pale, with dry and yellow hair. It's obvious that they are malnourished.
I don’t know how Chen Zhijie did it. His family conditions are pretty good, but he raised his wife and daughter to be malnourished.
"Mother--"
As soon as she saw Fu Yanju, Chen Wan'er rushed up excitedly and hugged her mother.
"Wan'er~ Wan'er~" Fu Yanju couldn't help crying out loud.
Her daughter, Fu Yanju has been feeling uneasy ever since the Chen family came to make trouble today.
She was afraid that her daughter would be used by the Chen family to vent their anger on her.
She knew that Chen Zhijie's parents were extremely patriarchal and did not love their granddaughter Chen Wan'er at all.
"Mom, don't cry." Chen Wan'er is also a very sensible girl.
Since she was a child, Fu Yanju was the only one in the Chen family who loved her. Her grandparents always asked her why she couldn't be a boy, and that girls were just a waste of money.
Her father didn't dislike her at first, but he wasn't very close to her either.
Later, when Dad started beating Mom, sometimes he beat her too.
She and her mother have always depended on each other.
Knowing that her mother wanted to escape back to her parents' home, Chen Wan'er sensibly told Fu Yanju not to bother her.
Although she was also very scared, fearing that her father would see her mother running away and take his anger out on her, she didn't want her mother to be beaten by her father again.
Moreover, Chen Wan'er firmly believed that her mother would definitely ask her grandparents to come to the Chen family to pick her up.
Her grandparents treated her much better than her grandparents.
It is said that girls always become sensible earlier than boys. Chen Wan'er is only seven years old now and in the first grade, but she is already so considerate of her mother.
"Wan'er, how did you get here? Are you here alone?" Fu Yanju asked, wiping the tears from her face.
"It was Grandpa Liu who helped me to go around the back mountain and avoid the villagers, so I was able to escape." Chen Wan'er answered obediently.
It was mainly due to the right time, right place and right people. The Chen family members were called to cause trouble for the Fu family, so they left a daughter-in-law at home to look after the children.
Only then did Chen Wan'er have the opportunity to escape from the village.
Originally, Chen Wan'er wanted to avoid people and sneak away from the village, but when she was escaping, she was seen by Grandpa Liu.
Chen Wan'er thought that Grandpa Liu would capture her and take her back, but he took her around the other side of the mountain and escaped from the mainland.
Grandpa Liu said that he could only help her up to this point and hoped that she could find her mother safely.
Is it true that everything the Chen family does in the village is supported by the villagers?
Not really. Many people just didn't dare to speak out because of the power of the Chen family.
In fact, everyone still sympathized with Fu Yanju and Chen Wan'er, and when no one was watching, they were still willing to lend a hand.
"He is willing to help you, right? Thank God. Then what? How did you find this place?" Fu Yanju couldn't imagine how difficult it was for her daughter to find her here.
How could I be so selfish? I escaped and didn't care about my daughter's life or death at all.
She's really not a good mother.
"He took me to the main road, and I walked along it by myself, asking for directions when I met people. I walked and asked for directions for a whole day before I finally found my grandmother's house."
Chen Wan'er is still young and her language organization ability is limited, but the adults who heard her words couldn't help but worry for her.
It was really lucky for such a little girl to walk by herself along the way and meet many passers-by and villagers during the journey and arrive at the destination safely.
Not to mention any accidents, if Chen Wan'er meets a bad guy who wants to kidnap a girl, she may disappear from their side forever.
Fortunately, the people she met along the way were all good citizens.
This is also the characteristic of this era. Not so many people would do such unscrupulous things for money.
Not only did they help her, some of them took pity on her and gave her steamed buns and water.
Otherwise, Chen Wan'er might not be able to reach Shangyao Village due to lack of physical strength.
"Let the children eat first." At this time, Fu Dajun spoke.
"Yes, yes, yes, let's eat. Wan'er must be very hungry, right?"
Fu Yanju picked up her daughter with heartache, hesitated for a while, and walked towards the children's table.
Su He took a look at the dishes on the children's table, and found that there were indeed more than those on the adults' table.
"I'll go get Wan'er a bowl of chicken soup." Su He said to Fu Yanju.
Hearing this, Fu Yanju looked at Su He with gratitude and said, "Okay, thank you, Su He."
Su He gave her a reassuring smile, then went to serve soup to Wan'er.
Chen Wan'er was held by Fu Yanju and sat on a low stool. There were other children at the table, all looking at Chen Wan'er with their innocent big eyes.
Chen Wan'er had met many of the children before, but children have short memories and she hasn't seen them for a long time, so even though Chen Wan'er was older than them, she seemed very reserved.
"Are you Sister Wan'er?" At this time, the most sensible eldest sister asked first.
"Yes...yes." Chen Wan'er answered a little nervously.
At this time, Fu Yanju also served Chen Wan'er some rice and placed the chopsticks in front of her.
Looking at the food on the table, Chen Wan'er couldn't help but swallow.
It looks delicious.
Although many dishes were messed up by the children, it did not affect their delicious appearance at all.
It smells really good, and it looks like a lot of oil was used.
"Sister Wan'er, have a piece of chicken. It's made by your aunt and it's delicious." After Daya said this, she picked up a piece of nice-looking chicken and gave it to Chen Wan'er.
"Thank you...thank you Sister Daya." Chen Wan'er said a little dazedly as she looked at the chicken in the bowl.
The two little girls are of similar age, so naturally they still remember each other.
"Sister, the mushrooms fried by my mother are the most delicious, please eat some mushrooms." Although Niu Niu, who was standing by, didn't understand what was going on, she asked everyone in the family to come out and see her sister.
But no matter what time, it is her duty to promote her mother's fried mushroom chicken.
After saying that, she took her chubby little hand, picked up a mushroom and put it in Chen Wan'er's bowl.
"Thank you, sister." Although I don't know her name.
"My name is Niu Niu!" Niu Niu replied immediately.
"Oh, thank you Niuniu."
