“Mmm…”
Aunt Zhao's hands and feet were tied up, and two rags were stuffed in her mouth, which made it impossible for her to close her mouth. She could only make vague sounds. The only eye that could move looked at Su Man and Xiao Feng in horror, completely unaware of what had befallen them.
Not only her, they also tied up the Zhao father and son who were sleeping.
Zhao Laoliu drank too much and didn't wake up until he was tied to death. Uncle Zhao was not as drunk as Zhao Laoliu. He woke up in the middle of the night, but was knocked unconscious by Su Man with a stick and passed out again.
Inside the house, Xiaofeng looked at the father and son of the Zhao family who were thrown on the ground, and then looked at Aunt Zhao on the kang. Besides feeling happy, she also felt a sense of unreality.
Those demons that kept her awake at night and made her live in fear day and night, just fell like that?
Just that, easy?
"Do you know where the car keys are?"
"Xiao Feng?"
Su Man called Xiao Feng twice before she came back to her senses, "It should be on Zhao Laoliu."
Following the direction she pointed, Su Man saw the key tied to Zhao Laoliu's belt.
After buying the "car", Zhao Laoliu deliberately put the key outside to show off, for fear that others would not see it.
Su Man took the key and was about to ask Xiaofeng to leave, but she found that she was staring at the Zhao family of three, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
Noticing Su Man's gaze, Xiao Feng said in a hoarse voice, "Xiao Man, please help me go to the hut and get Xiao Bao out."
Su Man looked at Zhao Laoliu who was tied up, and then looked at Xiaofeng who had never turned her head away, and seemed to understand something in her heart.
She followed his instructions and went to find Xiaobao nearby, leaving the space for Xiaofeng.
Although she was only two years old, Xiaobao was sitting alone on the kang, biting a deformed pacifier in her mouth. A quilt was hastily placed around the edge of the kang to prevent her from falling off.
Su Man was afraid that Xiao Bao was shy, so she smiled at her and said, "Come, let Auntie hug you."
Xiaobao looked at Suman with his grape-like eyes, and the next second he smiled, raised his little hands towards Suman, and his face was full of requests for a hug.
Su Man leaned over and picked up Xiaobao. Holding her small, soft body, her heart softened.
At this moment, she suddenly understood Xiaofeng's desire to protect her.
From such a small child to growing up, Xiaofeng spent a lot of effort. She didn't care about humanity and morality. As long as her child was safe, she didn't care about anything else.
When Su Man was carrying the child out, Xiao Feng also came out. She was holding a cloth bag in her hand. Seeing Su Man, she spread it out and said, "This is the money I found in there. There are only a little over three thousand, and there are two silver bracelets. Together, it's not even five thousand."
"Keep it for now, and discuss it with the Liu family later."
The two women were weak and it was unrealistic to snatch A Di back from Liujia Village. It would be better to return the money and redeem A Di.
"Then let's go."
Xiaofeng lowered her head, avoiding Su Man's gaze.
When she passed by Su Man, Su Man grabbed her arm. Xiao Feng was frightened and asked, "What...what happened?"
Su Man pointed at her face and said, "Wipe it."
Xiaofeng subconsciously touched her face, which was covered in blood that had been splashed on her face at some point.
Seeing the red fingertips, Xiao Feng's face turned pale instantly, "I... I am, I..."
"No need to explain to me."
Su Man looked at the closed door and said, "We'll go up the mountain to pick up A-Di and leave when it's late."
Xiaofeng opened her mouth, but in the end she said nothing and just nodded.
-
Liujia Village is very close to Tieshan Village, but the mountain road is difficult to walk on and there are many forks in the road. The two of us got lost in the middle and it took almost two hours to reach Liujia Village.
There are few people here and it is far away. I asked a few people before I found the family who bought A Di.
Before I even entered the yard, I heard sounds of beating and scolding, accompanied by crying.
"If you run again, I'll beat you to death!"
In the fenced yard, a man was beating a girl on the ground with a stick.
The girl was covered in dirt and didn't dare to hide from being beaten. She just kept crying, "Wow, uncle, please let me go."
"Let you go? Then who will give me my money? Your parents don't want you anymore, where else do you want to run to?"
"No, no, Mommy won't abandon me. I want to find Mommy..."
"You're still crying, I think you're just itching for trouble!"
"Mom... woo woo, I want mom..."
Seeing this scene, Xiao Feng's eyes became bloodshot. He was about to step forward regardless of anything, but was stopped by Su Man.
"You hide here, I'll go."
"But I..."
"You're Xiaofeng's mother. If he sees you're anxious to get Xiaofeng back, he'll definitely raise the price. Just wait here. I'll definitely bring A-Di back to you."
At this point, Xiaofeng knew that if she insisted on going, she would only cause more trouble. She listened to Su Man's advice and stopped, "Please, if you can bring A Di back, I will be your slave for the rest of my life."
"Okay, it's getting late. I'm off."
After comforting Xiaofeng, Su Man piled the scarf on her head in front of her face and ran towards the family.
Inside the fence, Lao Liu's attention was all on A-Di, and he didn't notice Su Man at all. It was only when Su Man called out to him that he turned around.
The man looked to be in his thirties, with his chest wide open and a large belly bulging. "Who are you?"
"Brother, I'm from Wangjia Village. I'm looking for a wife for my brother. Do you have any girls here?"
"Wangjia Village?"
Wangjia Village is not far from Liujia Village and is slightly richer than Liujia Village and Tieshan Village. Although he has never been there, he knows about them.
