Then, she looked at the woman in front of her and said eagerly, "Auntie, can you let me go? If you let me go, I will give you money, and then you can use the money to buy flour!"
When Aunt Yao heard Li Mingxi say this, she was so scared that she waved her hands repeatedly.
"No, no, girl, don't say that. I can't let you go, and I don't want your money. You should just eat quickly and stop thinking about these things!"
Li Mingxi refused to give up and continued to try to negotiate with her, "Auntie, can you please save me? I was tricked into coming here by my cousin and her friends. I don't even know them, I don't know anything. And now I'm trapped here. My mom and the others at home must be so worried!"
As she spoke, she began to wipe away her tears.
"Especially my grandma. She's old, and she can't sleep if she doesn't see me one day. You said I didn't go home today, and I don't know how worried my grandma would be!"
Aunt Yao looked at the crying Li Mingxi in front of her, and thought about how scared her own daughter would be if she encountered such a situation, and she felt heartbroken.
Looking at the little girl in front of her, Aunt Yao subconsciously wanted to help her.
But soon, she thought of her son who was now involved with this group of people. If she helped to release the girl, what would happen to her son?
After this girl gets out, she will definitely contact the police, and her son will definitely go to jail!
No, no matter how pitiful this little girl is, she is not as important as her own son. She can still tell what is more important. She can't harm her own son for an outsider!
After hardening her heart, she spoke.
"Miss, I'm so sorry. I want to help you, but my son is still with them. If I help you, I will be sorry for my son. I'm so sorry, Auntie, I really have no choice!"
As she spoke, she pushed the bowl towards Li Mingxi.
"My daughter, you should eat quickly and stop thinking about this and that. Don't worry, I'm watching over you. They won't do anything to you. Just stay here!"
Then, without caring about Li Mingxi's reaction, she rushed out the door.
After everyone left, Li Mingxi opened his mouth, but all the words that were on the tip of his tongue vanished into thin air!
She had planned everything, but she hadn't expected that the woman's son was actually in cahoots with this gang. In this situation, how could anyone help her?
Now that this old lady can't help her, she can only think of other ways!
We can't just sit here and wait for death, right?
At the same time, in the Dongfeng Brigade, Niu Cuihua was almost going crazy waiting at home!
Starting from the afternoon, she sat at the door waiting for her granddaughter to come back. Usually, her granddaughter would come home after lunch!
But today, she didn't know what happened. She waited and waited, but her granddaughter didn't show up. As it was getting dark, there was still no sign of her granddaughter. She became anxious!
I was originally waiting for Li Mingxi to come back home!
Call the old man and ask him to go to the village entrance to welcome his granddaughter.
Old man Li waited at the village entrance for more than half an hour but saw no sign of his granddaughter, and he became panicked.
It was getting dark and the person still hadn't come back. Either he hadn't come back at all, or something happened to him along the way!
For a moment, Old Man Li really couldn't make up his mind, so he had to go to his eldest brother's house to ask him for help in making a decision!
Li Tiezhu and his family were eating around the table. When they saw Old Man Li coming, they quickly asked him to sit down!
"Hurry, hurry, you're here just in time. Have you eaten yet? Boss's wife, quickly get your uncle a pair of chopsticks and let him sit down and eat something!"
Old man Li is in a hurry at the moment, so how can he have the mind to eat?
He quickly refused, "No, no, Captain, I can't eat it!"
Li Tieniu looked at Old Man Li's furrowed brows, somewhat puzzled. What was it that he couldn't eat? Could something have happened? Thinking of this, he put down his bowl and chopsticks.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
The rest of the people also looked at Old Man Li with confusion.
Old man Li was being stared at by everyone. He sighed first, and then told everyone that Li Mingxi had gone to the county town today and had not returned yet!
Li Tiezhu was still somewhat rational. Seeing the anxious look on Old Man Li's face, he started to comfort him.
"Don't worry, we still don't know what's going on. What's the point of getting so anxious?"
"Maybe the child saw that it was too late to come back, so he didn't come back. It's not certain, don't you think?"
Old man Li nodded. "That's right. I am worried, but what if something happens to the child? What will we do then?"
After a moment's silence, Captain Li Tiezhu finally spoke.
"Well, don't worry about it. We need to think about this matter carefully. If you act rashly like this, you will only worry in vain and accomplish nothing!"
"How about this, let's go ask first and discuss the details later. After all, no one knows whether the child has returned or not!"
In this situation, no matter how anxious Old Man Li is, he can only agree to this proposal!
Then the group walked towards Li Mingxi's house.
At home, Niu Cuihua waited and waited but no one came back. She was almost going crazy with anxiety!
Zhang Huilan was worried because her daughter had been missing, but when she saw her mother-in-law looking like she was about to faint at any moment, she didn't dare to say anything and could only comfort her mother-in-law.
"Mom, don't worry. Maybe Xiaoxi just came back late. It's okay. Don't worry. Besides, my dad went to pick up Xiaoxi. Maybe he has already picked her up. Don't worry, right?"
Niu Cuihua was very angry when she heard this.
"Are you still Xiaoxi's mother? The child is still missing. Aren't you worried at all? Is there any mother like you?"
Zhang Huilan was scolded so much that she remained silent.
After waiting for a while and hearing no human voice, Niu Cuihua looked up curiously, and saw Zhang Huilan silently shedding tears!
Seeing her like this, Niu Cuihua also reacted!
That's right, what mother doesn't worry about her child? Just now, her daughter-in-law saw that she was upset, so she tried to persuade her, but she just came up and scolded her, not even knowing why her daughter-in-law was upset!
After realizing this, Niu Cuihua regretted it so much. If she had known this earlier, she would not have said that.
Looking at her daughter-in-law crying silently, she spoke in a muffled voice.
"Okay, don't cry. That's not what Mom meant. I just can't find Xiaoxi now, and I'm upset. I didn't pay attention and said those words. Don't take them to heart!"
Zhang Huilan, who had been scolded by her mother-in-law, was wiping her tears when she suddenly heard these words. She was dazed for a moment. Was her mother-in-law apologizing to her?
