Chapter 119 What a coincidence
The little girl was wearing a children's bathrobe, and her short hair was damp, as if she had just played in the water.
She looked up at Chen Baomei timidly, then quickly lowered her head.
Chen Baomei asked in surprise, "Where did you pick up the child? Where are her parents?"
Niuniu explained:
"On the beach! Sister Qiqi and I were playing on the beach, and she was washed up by the water!"
"We asked her what her parents' names were, but she refused to tell us. She even said her parents didn't want her anymore. Grandma, she's so pitiful."
The little girl's eyes were filled with tears after hearing what Niu Niu said, and she was about to cry.
Jiang Qiqi said indignantly, "Her parents must have deliberately left her alone on the beach. When Niuniu and I found her, we searched for her nearby for a long time but couldn't find her parents. And it's been so long, and no one has come looking for her!"
Chen Baomei: "So, you brought the person back?"
Jiang Qiqi said a little embarrassedly, "We wanted to call the police, but Pan'er kept crying and her body was wet, so we brought her back."
"Your name is Pan'er?"
Chen Baomei slowed down her tone, squatted down and asked the little girl.
The little girl nodded timidly.
"Are you and your parents staying in this hotel too?"
The little girl shook her head again.
Chen Baomei looked at Niu Niu and Jiang Qiqi.
Jiang Qiqi shrank her neck and said timidly, "The hats sold in the hotel are too expensive. Niuniu and I went to the beach outside the hotel to buy them, and then we ran into Pan'er."
The hotel beach is separated from the public beach outside. There are many small vendors selling things on the public beach, which are much cheaper than those in the hotel.
Kiki and Niuniu walked around the hotel mall and found that the prices were very expensive, so they gave up the idea of buying a hat.
When they found something cheaper outside, they went out and bought it.
If they hadn't gone out to buy a hat, they wouldn't have met the little girl.
Chen Baomei didn't want to pursue the two of them for running around. "Pan'er, do you know your parents' phone numbers?"
The little girl shook her head.
Jiang Qiqi: "If I can't ask her, she won't tell me."
She and Niu Niu asked this question many times when they were on the beach.
Chen Baomei: "Let's call the police first and let them handle it."
This kind of thing can only be handed over to the police.
It would be troublesome if their parents came and blamed them.
Chen Baomei explained the situation to the police on the phone and asked Qiqi to blow dry the little girl's hair.
Jiang Qiqi said with some pride: "She was very dirty when she was washed up by the water, and I was the one who gave her a bath. Unfortunately, Niuniu is much younger than her, and we don't have any clothes for her to change into."
"It's okay, put on your bathrobe first."
Jiang Qiqi lowered her voice and said to Chen Baomei, "Grandma, when I was giving her a bath, I found many scars on her body. They looked like they were caused by pinching or cigarette burns."
Chen Baomei's brows were furrowed into a straight line.
"When the police come, tell them this as well."
"good."
Chen Baomei put the gray dress she had changed out of into a plastic bag and took them to the hotel lobby to wait.
The police arrived quickly, asked about the reason, and took the little girl to the police station.
When leaving, the little girl kept crying and refused to go.
Qiqi and Niuniu coaxed her for a long time before she got into the car with red eyes and followed the police.
"Grandma, what do you think Pan'er's parents think? She's been missing for so long, and they didn't even call the police."
After the police arrived, they contacted the police in the nearby area and asked if anyone had reported a child missing.
The answer is no.
It has been almost three hours since they met Pan'er.
Chen Baomei's expression didn't change. "Who knows? Some parents might just be naturally carefree."
"Next time you encounter this kind of problem, call the police first, don't bring the person back."
If they meet a difficult person, they won't be able to explain themselves even if they have a thousand mouths.
There are some things that Chen Baomei doesn't want to think about too deeply.
Jiang Qiqi: "I understand."
In the evening, Chen Baomei called the police station again and confirmed that the child had been taken away by his parents. Only then did they feel relieved.
It was just a small episode and Chen Baomei didn't take it seriously.
Shen Yin arrived at around ten o'clock in the evening. After she arrived, her schedule and activities were arranged by Shen Yin.
For convenience, Shen Yin also rented a car.
Sleep until you wake up naturally every day, then drive around when you wake up, eat local food, and experience the tropical customs.
Jiang Qiqi broadcasts live every day and posts on WeChat Moments wherever she goes.
Chen Jiao, who watched Jiang Qiqi's circle of friends every day, was both envious and jealous.
Finally, they also embarked on the journey to Sanya.
I don’t know why, but Wu Wenwan deliberately booked the same hotel as Chen Baomei and the others.
When Chen Baomei and her group came back from playing, they saw Wu Wenwan and her family of five checking in at the front desk.
When she saw Chen Baomei, Wu's mother greeted her first.
"Baomei, what a coincidence, you guys are also coming to Sanya?"
Chen Baomei raised her eyebrows. "What a coincidence! We've been here for five or six days."
Father Wu nodded to Chen Baomei as a greeting.
After getting on the elevator, Chen Yin couldn't help but mutter, "Why did they come here to play and stay in the same hotel with us? It's really unlucky!"
Chen Baomei: "The hotel is so big, and we don't own it. How can you screen the guests?"
"Relax and don't let irrelevant people affect our mood."
Chen Baomei was not affected much, but the Wu family was in a bad mood.
As soon as they entered the hotel room, Wu's mother couldn't help but complain to Wu Wenwan, "Your ex-mother-in-law is so arrogant that she wants all the good things piled on her. She has the temperament of a nouveau riche that can't be concealed."
Wu Wenwan: "It's like that when a poor person suddenly becomes rich, they can't wait to tell everyone they're rich."
She curled her lips and said in a mocking tone, "What kind of taste can a pig-raising peasant woman have?"
In fact, what they said is biased and too prejudiced.
Chen Baomei only wore a pearl necklace around her neck and two gold bracelets on her wrists, which was far from the good things they said she had.
Money can support people. If we talk about Chen Baomei's current condition and dress, she is much more refined and decent than Wu's mother.
To put it bluntly, Wu's mother felt unbalanced because the peasant woman who was inferior to her before now dressed younger and prettier than herself.
Mother Wu: "The child standing next to Chen Yin is the one Jiaojiao mistakenly took away?"
Wu Wenwan nodded.
Mother Wu snorted, "Children raised by peasant women are simply not presentable. They didn't even say hello when they saw us. After all, we are her grandparents, and she has no manners at all."
If Chen Baomei heard this, she would definitely curse.
Ever since Niu Niu was found, they haven't cared about her. Even at the family reunion party, the two old men never showed up. They still wanted Niu Niu to say hello to them. They are so shameless.
As Wu Wenwan packed her things, she said disdainfully, "What good things can she teach?"
At this time, Wu Hui, who had finished looking at the room, ran over and asked Wu Wenwan angrily, "Mom, why don't we live in a big room with a slide and a tent? The room that that damn girl Chen Jue lives in has one!"
Shen Jiao also said: "Yes, Mom, our room is too small, there is not even a balcony."
