Chapter 79 No One Wants
Grandma Cheng's face was mixed with paleness, and Cheng Yaozu immediately walked over, threw himself beside Cheng Er's wife, and grabbed the hand of Cheng's second son.
"Mom and Dad, what do you mean by saying this? Don't you want me anymore?" Cheng Yaozu had witnessed the hard life that Cheng Putao had endured.
When he thought about the days that would come and he would have to live them, he felt that disaster was imminent.
"I am your child. No one else has the right to raise me except you!"
Hearing Cheng Yaozu's words of loyalty, Cheng Er's wife's eyes also showed a trace of pity.
No matter if he was a real son or a fake one, he was the child he had taken care of for so many years. There was nothing wrong with the children being schemed by adults.
"If my eldest brother's family is willing to sever ties with Yaozu and never see him again, then we don't mind supporting the two brothers." Cheng's second wife first consulted her husband and son before speaking directly.
If it weren't for the affection she had for raising him since childhood, she wouldn't even bother to make this suggestion.
Cheng Yaozu certainly didn't mind. He had always regarded Cheng Er's wife's family as his own family. He nodded and hurried over to join them.
But Cheng Da's wife immediately came over and hugged him, tears welling in her eyes: "Son, you should go back with me soon."
Grandma Cheng watched from the side, her face livid, and she subconsciously warned: "Are you really going to be so heartless?"
"It's not that I'm heartless, but you never treated me like a son from the beginning." The second son of the Cheng family stiffened his neck and spoke to protect his wife and children: "Look at Grape's body, then look at Yaozu. In what way have we failed you? To make you do this for a bite to eat?"
The strong man was now in tears.
His behavior also stimulated the villagers nearby. Sighs and discussions were heard one after another.
"That's not right."
"No wonder Old Lady Cheng changed her mind. It turns out she wants to use the second son's family's money to support her older children. This is too biased."
“…”
The surrounding discussions entered Grandma Cheng's mind. Her face turned pale, and she quickly walked over and slapped her son. Her eyes were stubborn and she said, "I'm asking you again, do you really want to split up the family business?"
"Even if you beat me to death, I will still divide the family business and will never let my wife and children suffer again!" The second son of the Cheng family gritted his teeth and promised.
Even if Grandma Cheng slapped him a few more times, he refused to let go.
Not long after, the eldest son of the Cheng family came over with a fat belly. He was smiling and didn't care at all that the child was lost.
When he heard that his younger brother wanted to divide the family property, his face changed immediately and he wanted to take action. Huo Jinzhi, who was next to him, simply grabbed his wrist and threw him to the side with a clever force, with a hint of warning in his dark eyes.
Cheng Zhuoyue understood the situation and took on the task without anyone telling him: "If you want to divide the family property, just come to our Public Security Bureau. I'm good at arithmetic and can calculate it for you quickly."
"Everyone, please come in and don't interfere with the business." Chen Zhuyi also reminded from the side. Looking at this farce, there was some sarcasm in his eyes.
Grandma Cheng was thick-skinned and didn't take everyone's ridicule to heart. She just snorted and followed them. But Cheng Yaozu wanted to stay. Cheng's eldest daughter-in-law was afraid that her son would be taken away, so after discussing with them for a few words, she followed Chen Zhuyi and the others.
"Let's go. Those of you who can find your relatives and remember their addresses will be sent back first. No one can beat Thomas again. This matter needs to be handled by the higher-ups."
As soon as Chen Zhu saw a little guy secretly reaching out to pinch Thomas, he quickly warned him.
Their attitude towards war criminals was relatively mild, and they also wanted to dig out the traces of other people from Thomas's mouth.
There are many cargo ships coming and going, and who knows which one of them might be carrying their innocent and suffering compatriots!
The child was scolded and lowered his head in grievance, but at least he didn't move. Commander Lu was waiting for them to come in not far away, his eyes full of satisfaction and a bit of complexity.
"The comrades above have actually been paying close attention to this matter, but we didn't expect that you would solve the problem so suddenly." Commander Lu sighed and looked at Chen Zhuyi with some guilt.
They were indeed sorry to Chen Zhuyi for being wronged.
However, Chen Zhuyi seemed to not understand his look at all, and told him everything that happened in the cabin indifferently.
If you think about it carefully, they were lucky because they knew to use money to pave the way from the beginning, so they did not arouse suspicion.
In addition, the time was short, and they gave the human traffickers almost no time to think, so they succeeded immediately after they appeared!
Of course, the cooperation of these comrades in leaving together increased the probability of success.
"How should we deal with their attitude? From what I've observed, those people don't think they've done anything wrong." Chen Zhuyi was even more curious about this, and his voice was a little solemn.
Not only do they not think they have done anything wrong, they also think that the self-righteous Country A is so powerful that it can suppress all unruly voices.
"These are matters for negotiation with the higher-ups. We are responsible for delivering the information." Commander Lu refused to comment and shook his head.
There are some things that they are not able to know too much about.
Chen Zhu nodded in understanding. She knew very well that every decision made by the country was based on their intentions.
And all she had to do was be an obedient one.
"Since you have had some contact with these people, please go and register your personal information with them. We will arrange for someone to send them back later."
Commander Lu made another arrangement.
This task was not difficult and did not take up too much of his time, so Chen Zhuyi had no reason to refuse.
An Yu's leg hasn't fully healed yet, but at first glance it looks like it's fine, so she came over to help with the registration.
There were quite a few men and women, all of whom were captured from coastal cities. Fortunately, they all obeyed the discipline.
But the children made Chen Zhuyi a little worried.
Most of them only know the name of one village and nothing else, but the motherland has a vast territory, and even the names of villages can be repeated a lot.
The dog was also rescued. It is still a little difficult for him to move, but at least he will not become disabled.
"Sister, can I follow you?" Zhou Siwei kept pestering Chen Zhuyi, and when it was time to register, he looked at her pitifully.
That pretended pitiful attitude can easily make people feel soft-hearted.
Seeing his reaction, Chen Zhu shook his head cruelly: "You have your own family."
"I have no more..." Zhou Siwei spoke of his suffering in a tearful voice, then carefully glanced around to make sure no one saw him, and lowered his voice a little.
"I am an unwanted child. No one likes me. They all think I am redundant..."
"Other people were trafficked there, but I was sold to Thomas by my family."
That's why he was able to accept the rules quickly, become a tamed puppy, and be a knife in Thomas's hand.
His family members had already arranged a way out for him: to follow the human traffickers and become a small trafficker!
Chen Zhu was stunned. Boys in this era were very precious. Once a child was born, the family would support him even if they had to sell everything they had. Why would they sell the boy?
