Chapter 272 Hemp Ropes Break at the Thinnest Point



Chapter 272 Hemp Ropes Break at the Thinnest Point

"Yi Yi, what do you think we should do about this?" Jian Yiwei was very conflicted.

Secretly, he wanted to beat He Wenyu up.

No matter what Jian Zhonglan's relationship with them is, it cannot change the fact that blood is thicker than water.

But reason told him that if this matter became public, it would be of no benefit to anyone.

Especially the two little ones.

"Brother, never make decisions for others." Jian Qingyi sighed.

If he lives a good life in the future, he may not necessarily remember your kindness, but if he lives a bad life, he will definitely blame you.

"If you were my aunt, what would you do?" Jian Yiwei asked.

"If it were me..." Jian Qingyi thought for a moment.

"If the money is in my hands, I will kick that bastard out immediately. If the money is not in my hands, I will get the money first and then kick that bastard out."

"What about Xiaoyue and Xiaofan?" Jian Yiwei asked again.

"As long as you have money, why worry about not being able to raise a child?" Jian Qingyi didn't care.

As long as people have hands, how can they starve to death?!

The most important thing is...

Are those coins in He Wenyu's pocket still in his pocket?!

Jian Qingyi was very suspicious.

"But if people outside knew that He Wenyu was having an affair, they would definitely laugh at Xiaoyue and Xiaofan..." Jian Yiwei was even more worried about this.

"But isn't it just that you laugh at others and others laugh at you in your life?" Jian Qingyi chuckled.

Face is something external to the body, you can have it or not.

If you value it, it will be as heavy as Mount Tai. If you don’t care about it, no one can hurt you.

The train stopped and started along the way.

By the time we arrived at the mountain city, it was already the afternoon of the next day.

The mountain city is truly worthy of its name, the mountain is the city and the city is the mountain.

At first glance, there are only mountains.

After eating dry food for two days and one night, the three of them could no longer bear it.

After finding a place to stay, the three of them went to the hot pot street in the mountain city.

As soon as I reached the intersection, the smell of hot pot wafted out.

The further you go in, the stronger the smell of hot pot becomes.

It feels like the whole street is marinated in the flavor of hot pot.

The three of them found a relatively crowded store.

As soon as I walked to the door, the waitress came to greet me warmly.

"Comrade, sit inside!"

The three of them found a seat by the window.

"Comrades, do you want to eat red hotpot or..." the waitress asked while helping them get the dishes and chopsticks.

"Double-boiled hotpot!" Jian Qingyi thought of Lu Yujing's light taste and said directly.

"Table 16, shabu-shabu hotpot." The waitress shouted towards the kitchen and went to get the menu for Jian Qingyi and the others.

Ordering food is Jian Qingyi’s strong point.

Beef, mutton, tripe, goose intestines, potato chips, prawns, bean curd sheets, lotus root slices...

Jian Qingyi made a series of "clang clang" sounds.

Lu Yujing used hot water to heat the dishes and cups for his young wife.

After all the tableware had been scalded, he poured tea for the young wife again.

Soon, the shuangyuan hotpot, which was half made of bright red hot pot soup base and half made of fragrant bone soup base, was served on the table.

The dishes were served one after another.

I have to say, the portions of dishes these days are really generous.

Unlike later generations, there were only a few pieces of beef as thin as cicada wings in a plate as big as a washbasin, and they were gone with one chopstick.

After eating dry food for two days and one night, the three of them ate heartily at this meal.

Even Jian Qingyi rubbed her stomach after eating so much.

Once you check out...

Fifty-two yuan.

For fifty-two yuan, you can eat a few vegetarian dishes in Yunlai.

Not only that, but after paying the bill, the boss also gave them three bottles of orange soda.

As night falls and the lights come on, the lights from thousands of homes and the twinkling stars complement each other, creating a comfortable and peaceful night scene.

The three of them strolled in the alleys of the mountain city, feeling the cool evening breeze, and their mood became particularly relaxed.

Jian Qingyi tilted her head and looked at the man's profile.

Those eyebrows, that outline...

He looks like a prince who walked out of a comic book.

But this is only on the road.

Once at the hotel, the man transformed into a wolf.

All the way on the train, he could only look but not eat, and the man was so angry that he was at the top of his head.

At this moment, you can both look at it and eat it, how can a man resist it?

next day

Jian Qingyi undoubtedly got up late.

The hotel they stayed in was high up in the mountain city. When they opened the windows, the entire mountain city seemed covered with a layer of translucent gauze, and under the warm autumn sun, it looked like a fairyland.

There is a breakfast shop below the hotel.

Bench noodles, pea noodles, oil tea, wontons...

There are quite a lot of varieties to choose from.

The food ordered by the three people has just arrived on the table.

Then I heard the people at the next table ask, "Have you found Tailor Liu's daughter?"

"It's been missing for a week, how can we still find it?" someone sighed.

"Tailor Liu and his wife are so pitiful. They raised such a daughter with great difficulty, and now she is gone." Someone shook his head.

"That's right. Tailor Liu's wife couldn't get pregnant when she was young. She was in her forties before she got pregnant with this girl..." At this point, the man couldn't help but sigh.

"It's true that a hemp rope only breaks at the thinnest part, and misfortune only finds its way to the unfortunate!"

"Those damned human traffickers are also despicable..."

For a moment, sighs and curses were heard one after another in the huge breakfast shop.

"Xiu'er, Xiu'er..." A panicked female voice drowned out everyone else.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound.

A middle-aged woman in a floral shirt ran towards the river with a panicked look on her face.

While running, he shouted, "Xiu'er...Xiu'er..."

"What's going on?" someone asked.

"I heard that she was bringing her daughter to the city to buy a dowry, but when the mother and daughter got off the train, they got separated at the station, and in the blink of an eye, her daughter disappeared." An insider came forward to reveal the information.

"It must be those damn human traffickers!" someone speculated.

In broad daylight...

It's truly insane.

"Brother, please contact the military district here. I will send Yi Yi up and then meet up with you." Lu Yujing looked at Jian Yiwei.

Places like train stations and bus stations are densely populated, and finding someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Jian Yiwei nodded and strode out of the store.

"Wife..." Lu Yujing lowered his eyes and looked at his young wife again.

"You go ahead. I'll just stay in the hotel room. If you're hungry, just eat something in the hotel. I promise I won't go anywhere." Knowing what the man was worried about, Jian Qingyi quickly expressed her opinion.

"No hurry, I'll take you upstairs before I leave." Lu Yujing held his young wife's hand tightly.

Those human traffickers are so elusive, how dare he put his young wife in danger.

Jian Qingyi originally wanted to persuade him to leave first, but seeing his serious expression, he looked as if he was determined.

Jian Qingyi had no choice but to quicken her pace up the stairs.

"Wife, stay in the house and we will be back soon." After sending his young wife into the house, Lu Yujing reminded her again with concern.

"Don't worry! I will never go out." Jian Qingyi almost swore to the sky.

She's not stupid.

If I go out alone now, I will definitely be giving sales to the human traffickers.
