...
At 4:30 a.m., after tidying up her daughter's blankets, Mo Yan went to buy ingredients, making sure all the meat was fresh, along with other things.
I started making breakfast for my daughter at 7:30. Today I made her pan-fried dumplings and wontons, served with a soup with shredded vegetables.
Mo Yan sent her daughter to school before making Zhang Ning a new breakfast.
Then I delivered it to him.
"Mr. Zhang, please have some. These are pan-fried dumplings, wontons, noodles, and shumai."
There's also a contract here; the rent will remain unchanged after three years. This is my way of thanking Mr. Zhang.
Without saying a word, the person rushed over. Since I lost a jade pendant, I should thank them properly.
Zhang Ning: "..."
"Then I'll go open the shop first."
Zhang Ning opened her mouth, but didn't say anything; she simply started eating breakfast.
The breakfast was pretty good; every flavor was acceptable. No wonder it's so popular every day.
At 11:30, everything was sold out, and Mo Yan prepared to close up shop.
At this moment, Zhang Ning brought over a bowl and chopsticks. "Thank you for the breakfast, landlord. This contract is unnecessary. Even if you weren't the landlord, I would still stand up for you."
Since they've said that, Mo Yan naturally accepted it, saying, "Thank you."
...
Nothing much happened for the next week.
Mo Yan opens her shop every day, and Zhang Ning's shop is being renovated very quickly.
The old lady didn't cause any more trouble.
They later learned that it was because the child had been lost.
That's right, Yu Yang is missing.
It turns out that after the old lady hit Yu Yang last time, she couldn't stop. Whenever she was in a bad mood, she would think of punishing Yu Yang.
Yu Yang was a brat to begin with, how could he possibly accept that? The two of them would sometimes even fight.
The child was no match for the old lady; she was very ruthless.
Yesterday, she couldn't hold back and hit the child too hard. By the time she regretted it, the child was gone.
The old lady then became anxious, remembering that it was her grandson. She called out to him everywhere, crying and pleading, hoping that the child would come back.
"Yangyang, Yangyang, where are you? Where are you? Please come back soon. Grandma misses you so much."
"Yangyang, Grandma was wrong. Grandma shouldn't have hit you."
"Yangyang, can you come back? Where are you?"
The old lady had no choice but to call the police. In an attempt to evade responsibility, she even blamed Mo Yan and Zhang Ning.
After a day of police investigation, the old lady approached the police and told them that she suspected Yu Yang had been secretly taken away by Mo Yan and Zhang Ning.
"Officer, it's those two people's fault. If it weren't for them, my child wouldn't have gone missing."
The police were quite helpless after learning the whole story.
"Auntie, what does this have to do with them? They never saw any security cameras around their shop where your child was.
As you can see, the child wasn't heading that way at all.
They also discovered that the child ran away in the middle of the night, and when he did, he had injuries on his body, which looked like he had been beaten.
“It’s them. My grandson used to be very well-behaved and would never run away from home. It’s because of them that a lot of things have happened to our family recently. You must arrest them.”
The old lady would never admit to making a mistake; if she was wrong, then someone else was wrong.
She wouldn't tell anyone that she had aborted the child.
"What happened to the child's injuries? We can see from the surveillance footage that the child had injuries and appeared terrified when he came out. Can you tell us what happened?"
They investigated, so there must be results, but the old lady is unwilling to say anything now, which has brought great difficulties to their investigation.
“I don’t know, there are no injuries. I don’t know. If there are any, they were caused by those two people. You don’t know, one of them was someone who went on a blind date with my son and almost became my daughter-in-law. The reason they didn’t end up together was because this woman disliked my grandson and thought he was a burden.”
It's a real shame that the old lady doesn't tell stories; when it comes to lying, she can make up a whole series of tales.
"Mo Yan dislikes my grandson and doesn't want to marry my son. The other one is the man Mo Yan is currently seeing. They say they're just landlord and tenant, but that's not true at all. Maybe they've been having an affair for a long time. They want to get revenge on my son and are jealous of his excellence, so they kidnapped my grandson."
The old lady's stories became increasingly outrageous, and she seemed more and more convinced that what she had made up was true.
The police were speechless; this old lady had quite the imagination.
"Auntie, let us remind you, this is a police station. If you lie here, it's against the law."
These words are getting more and more outrageous.
You have to take responsibility for what you say!
"I..." The old lady covered her mouth, then said, "What I said is true, and it is all possible."
That man even tried to sue us before, just because my child accidentally broke one of his stones, he demanded 100,000 yuan from me. He's heartless, so cruel, so outrageous!
This kind of person is definitely capable of doing such heinous things.
The old lady became more and more agitated as she spoke, so the police quickly pulled her to sit down.
"Auntie, we will investigate. We'll speed things up here, and you should also think about where the child is most likely to go."
