Chapter 290 I Curse You to Die
As the cold old woman finished her words, she began to laugh breathlessly.
"The child is in Cheng Zhigang's hands. If you have the ability, take the child back..."
At the beginning, Mrs. Leng sold her children, but she didn't expect Cheng Zhigang to snatch the two children away from the buyer halfway.
Afterwards, the buyer came to argue with Old Lady Leng, and she found out that Cheng Zhigang had been sending people to monitor the Leng family.
Since then, Old Lady Leng has lived in fear. As for why Cheng Zhigang sent people to monitor the Leng family, she suspected it was because of Zhou Xia.
Zhou Xia raised her hand and rubbed her temple. She gritted her teeth and looked at the cold old woman: "I curse you to die a miserable death."
After leaving these words, Zhou Xia turned around and walked out. Zhou Yong took a deep look at the cold old woman who was still trying to yell at him, then walked away with big strides.
Zhou Ling followed, and the three siblings left Leng's house. Zhou Xia pushed her bicycle, looking at the blue sky, her heart was not at peace.
"Brother, what should we do next?"
Zhou Ling pushed her bicycle and followed Zhou Yong. She couldn't help but ask.
Zhou Yong got on his bike and said, "Let's go home first."
When they came, none of them expected that the matter would involve Cheng Zhigang.
Zhou Ling and Zhou Xia each rode their bicycles, and the three siblings were silent throughout the ride.
When they got home, Zhang Guifang looked at the brother and sister's faces and asked, "Didn't you find out where the child is?"
Zhou Ling took over the conversation and told Zhang Guifang what happened at the Leng family.
Zhang Guifang opened her mouth after hearing this, and after thinking for a while, she sighed: "I heard that Cheng Kuizi is a vicious person. We should not provoke him unless it is absolutely necessary..."
After experiencing the Xu Kuishan incident, Zhang Guifang knew very well how cruel people like them were.
Li Baotian frowned slightly and interrupted Zhang Guifang.
"If you don't understand anything, don't talk nonsense."
Zhang Guifang wanted to say something but stopped herself, and Li Baotian gave her a look.
Zhou Yong knew what his mother-in-law was worried about: "Mom, don't worry. Although Cheng Quezi and Xu Kuishan are the same kind of people, they have different styles of doing things..."
Zhang Guifang pulled the corners of her mouth and forced a smile: "Mom said this for everyone's good, Zhou Xia, don't take it to heart..."
Zhou Xia understood Zhang Guifang. After all, Zhou Kexin had only been discharged from the hospital a few days ago. If the Li family was implicated because of her, the adults would not care. The main thing was that Zhang Guifang was worried about the safety of the five children.
Li Baotian sighed: "We need to think carefully about this matter and we must not act rashly."
Zhou Yong nodded, and the few of them went into the house while talking.
After everyone sat down, they started a discussion about Cheng Zhigang's matter.
Zhou Ling suggested that they call the police directly and let the police station handle the matter.
Her idea seemed good, but Zhou Yong thought it wouldn't work.
Because Cheng Zhigang has been around for a long time, he has connections in both the black and white worlds. Even if the matter is brought to the police station, someone will come out to take the blame for him in the end.
In this case, Cheng Zhigang will definitely not return the child to Zhou Xia, and the situation will only get worse.
Li Baotian agreed with his son-in-law: "Zhou Yong is right. We can't just fight head-on. We have to find a compromise..."
Zhang Guifang sighed and said, "If it doesn't work, what about giving Cheng Quezi some money? What do you think?"
Li Baotian thought for a while and shook his head: "I'm afraid it won't work, because I heard that Cheng Guizi is very rich..."
Zhang Guifang opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't say a word, instead she sighed!
Zhou Xia saw that everyone was anxious because of her problem and said: "I will solve this matter myself, so I won't bother you."
Zhou Yong narrowed his eyes, and Zhou Ling opened her mouth and said, "Sister, how do you want to solve this? Are you going to fight with Cheng Zhigang?"
Zhou Xia smiled and said, "There is always a way out."
Zhang Guifang said worriedly: "Zhou Xia, listen to my advice, don't do anything reckless. We are just ordinary people, not the same kind as Cheng Guizi..."
Li Baotian echoed him, fearing that Zhou Xia might do something extreme in her eagerness to save her daughter.
Zhou Xia chuckled: "Uncle, don't worry, I know what to do. Xiaoyue and Xiaoqiu need my care, so I won't do anything stupid..."
After she said this, Li Baotian and Zhang Guifang breathed a sigh of relief. Zhou Ling looked at her elder sister and swallowed the words back.
Zhou Xia pretended to be relaxed and stood up: "Let's not talk about these things. Auntie, I want to eat some pickled vegetables."
Zhang Guifang smiled and said, "If you want to eat pickled vegetables, isn't that easy? Auntie will go to the garden to pick some for you..."
Zhou Xia took Zhang Guifang's arm and said, "Auntie, I wanted to eat yesterday but I was too embarrassed to say it."
"Girl, if you want to eat, just tell me."
Zhou Xia is a child who grew up under the care of Zhang Guifang. When they were young, she often played with Li Caiyun.
The two chatted and laughed as they took a small basket to the vegetable garden. Zhou Ling checked the time and said, "Brother, I'm going home."
"Let's go back after dinner."
Zhou Ling shook her head: "No, my old lady is sick. Zhao Min took the children there this morning. I have to go over and take a look..."
Zhou Yong nodded, Zhou Ling said hello to Li Baotian, and then she got up and went home.
After Zhou Ling left, Li Baotian said earnestly: "Zhou Yong, don't blame your mother for saying those things, she was scared by the Niuniu incident..."
Zhou Yong chuckled: "Dad, I understand my mom, and I understand you, too. But I can't ignore this matter. But I promise you that this matter will never implicate the family..."
Li Baotian looked at his son-in-law: "Dad and your mom are old and won't live for many more years. I just hope that you can all be safe and sound..."
Zhou Yong smiled and said, "Dad, you and my mom will live a long life, and our whole family will be safe and sound."
Li Baotian smiled, and Jiang Yue'e came out of the kitchen to prepare dinner, and the father-in-law and son-in-law ended the topic.
After a while, the two sisters Leng Yue and Leng Qiu, who had gone to the field to cut grass, came back with Li Jingan and Zhou Kerou. All four children were sweating profusely.
"Go wash your faces, you are all so hot."
The four children cut two large baskets full of grass and carried them back with great effort, which made them very tired.
Zhang Guifang smiled and praised the four children. Li Jingan was so happy, his face full of pride, that everyone couldn't help laughing.
Zhou Yong smiled and said: "This child loves to be praised. Every time he is praised, his tail is lifted up to the sky."
Li Baotian smiled and nodded, then took over the conversation.
The whole family came into the house to eat, chatting and laughing. Zhou Xia had no appetite, but she still forced herself to eat a bowl of rice.
After lunch, Zhang Guifang and Li Baotian went back to their room to take a nap, Li Jingan and Zhou Kerou went to Ma San's house, the sisters Leng Yue and Leng Qiu washed clothes in the yard, and Jiang Yue'e cleaned the kitchen.
"Brother, I'm going to the supply and marketing cooperative later. Do you want to buy anything?"
Zhou Yong frowned: "You want to find Cheng Quezi?"
Zhou Xia remained silent, while Zhou Yong fell into deep thought: "As far as I know, Cheng Quezi has been single for many years. I suspect he has not given up on you, otherwise he would not have sent people to monitor the Leng family..."
Zhou Yong even suspected that Cheng Zhigang already knew that Zhou Xia had returned.
"Brother, do you want me to trick him? Find out the whereabouts of the child first, and then find a way to take the child away?"
Zhou Yong nodded and looked at Zhou Xia: "But this way, you will be in danger, what if he wants to follow you."
Zhou Yong didn't say the rest. They were all adults, and Zhou Xia knew what her elder brother meant.
