On the other side.
Cui Hai took Xiao Xiao to his cousin's house.
His cousin is a village official; he has both money and power.
They were living a very comfortable life.
The only regret is that I cannot have children.
My cousin's wife has always wanted to have a child.
Cui Hai had always been aware of the couple's desire to adopt a child.
With that in mind, he set his sights on his own daughter.
So he sent his cousin's sister-in-law the cutest little photo of him.
My cousin-in-law thought the child was very cute and lively, and she really liked him.
She then discussed with her husband the idea of adopting her.
At first, Cui Hai's cousin disagreed.
What use is a girl?
It would be better to have a son.
Finally, unable to resist his fiery wife, he had no choice but to agree.
After agreeing on a price with Cui Hai, and considering their kinship, the matter was quickly settled.
Cui Hai's cousin-in-law prepared a lot of snacks and toys and kept them at home in advance.
When Cui Hai led Xiao Xiao into the house, the chubby little girl was held in her cousin-in-law's arms, who couldn't bear to let her go.
With a "pop," my cousin-in-law gave the little girl's face a kiss that she clearly loved.
"Sweetie, call me Mommy."
The woman picked up a plush toy and tried to coax the little girl into calling her "Mommy".
"You're not my mother, so who are you?"
Xiao Xiao looked at the unfamiliar woman and wanted to break free from her embrace.
She looked at Cui Hai again and said pitifully.
"Dad, I want to go home. I want to find Mom."
With a "whoosh," Xiao Xiao was genuinely frightened by the unfamiliar environment and the unfamiliar people.
"Little one, you'll be living here from now on. They'll be your mom and dad."
Cui Hai picked up Xiao Xiao and pointed to his cousin and cousin's wife sitting on the sofa.
"No, I want to go home, waaaaah!"
"Listen to me, this is your home."
"Mommy, Mommy, where are you?"
Seeing Xiaoxiao crying and screaming incessantly, Cui Hai instantly lost his patience and put her on the ground.
His face fell, and he said coldly, "Your mother doesn't want you anymore. Crying won't help; she won't come looking for you."
Xiao Xiao cried even harder.
Why doesn't Mom want her anymore? Is it because she's disobedient? Did she make Mom angry?
Xiao Xiao believed Cui Hai's nonsense.
She stood there, wiping her nose and tears with her little hands, calling out for her mother.
My cousin's wife couldn't bear to see her in such a pitiful state, so she quickly hugged her again and used a tissue to wipe away her tears.
He gently coaxed Xiaoxiao, "Don't cry, Xiaoxiao. Look at this doll, do you like it?"
The baby in her arms didn't respond; it seemed lost in thought.
My cousin's wife patiently took it one step at a time.
Seeing Xiaoxiao still sobbing, Cui Hai felt no pity and pulled his cousin outside.
After settling the last payment, he left without looking back.
Little Xiao spotted Cui Hai leaving and started shouting, "Daddy, don't leave Xiao Xiao behind, Xiao Xiao is still here!"
She was bound by the woman's hands and could not escape.
As her father walked further and further away, Xiaoxiao started crying again.
On the other side, Su Yinwan and the others also followed into the secluded path.
The car couldn't get in, so it had to be parked outside.
Everyone got off the bus and walked together into the village.
The dirt road here is winding and twisting, stretching as far as the eye can see.
The village seemed to be nestled deep in the mountains and forests.
Half an hour later.
They had just reached the village entrance when they looked around but didn't see anyone.
A cold wind blew, and the place felt somewhat desolate.
The roofs of the nearby houses had some missing tiles, the corners of the mud walls were covered with cobwebs, and the walls had collapsed.
At first glance, it looks like an abandoned, dilapidated house with no one living in it.
Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the house was inhabited by lonely elderly people living alone.
There were no lights, no television, no cell phone; a person sat alone by the fire, trying to keep warm.
As we continued walking, we gradually came across some intact houses.
Suddenly, Li Feng saw Cui Hai smoking a cigarette in front of her.
She ran over like a madwoman, grabbed the man's hair, and started hitting him wildly.
A mother's love makes her strong.
At this point, she had the upper hand and beat Cui Hai black and blue.
"Where's Xiaoxiao? Where did you hide her? What kind of father are you? You're worse than a pig or a dog."
"Ah, let go, you bitch! I've sold her to someone else. You'll never get your child back in this lifetime."
"You damned bastard, I'm going to take you down with me!"
At this moment, Li Feng lost her mind and, like a madwoman, bit the slap that Cui Hai threw at her.
Cui Hai cried out in pain, "Let go, you crazy woman!"
Li Feng bit down with all her might, refusing to let go.
But in the end, the man grabbed her hair with his other hand and pulled her head up violently.
Just as the two heads were about to burst into blood, Rong Jing turned around and gestured to Assistant Xu to come forward and help.
Assistant Xu first broke Cui Hai's wrist and then kicked him away expressionlessly.
Cui Hai, lying on the ground, was spitting blood and glaring fiercely at Li Feng and everyone behind her.
Seeing that he was outnumbered, he began to cry pitifully.
"Help! Someone's trying to kill me!"
Cui Hai simply refused to get up, lying on the ground howling and wailing to attract the villagers' attention.
Soon, many villagers came upon hearing the noise.
They were all people working in the fields nearby, carrying hoes, sickles, and carrying poles.
“Fellow villagers, please be the judge. I just came here to deliver something to your village cadre, Brother Wei, and they stopped me and beat me up. Look at the injuries on my body; they did it to me.”
Cui Hai solemnly addressed the villagers, distorting the facts.
"Bullshit! You're the one who brought the child here without telling me. I'm here to ask you to get the child back. Don't listen to his nonsense."
Li Feng wished she could snatch the hoe from the villager's hand and chop him down.
I was so blind back then, choosing such a beastly guy.
He even had bad intentions towards his own daughter.
The villagers listened to the two men's argument, unsure of who to believe, and began to discuss it amongst themselves.
"Whose words are more credible?"
"If you ask me, trust that guy. Look how badly he's injured."
"What if this woman is telling the truth? But look at those well-dressed people behind her, what's going on?"
At this moment.
Other villagers tipped them off and brought Cui Hai's cousin to the village.
When Cui Hai saw his cousin, his eyes lit up; he had finally seen his savior.
"Cousin, save me! This crazy woman brought a bunch of people to beat me up."
Cui Hai dragged himself to his cousin's side.
"What happened? How did you get injured?"
“Li Feng came looking for Xiao Xiao. She didn’t know I gave Xiao Xiao to your family as a daughter. Who knew she would actually find her way here.”
Cui Hai slowly stood up and whispered in his cousin's ear.
"You have to help me, cousin. We're all connected in this. If she really calls the police, we'll all be in trouble."
"you......"
