Chapter 314 Mother and daughter hide their whereabouts
Lu Yongfu did not call back to Yaoshui Village.
He did not bring Lu Xiaoting back home either. He arranged for her to stay in a guesthouse and told her not to go out.
In the evening, everyone in the family came back, and Lu Yongfu also called Lu Mingqi and his wife to come.
He told them about Lu Xiaoting's current situation.
"What do you think we should do now? The child has come to Beijing and refuses to go back. I am also worried that Mingxuan will come to pick up the child, and then the sheep will fall into the tiger's mouth."
Liang Qiaoli said: "Tell Tian Liping about this and let her come to pick up the child. If it doesn't work, we will send him back. In short, the child cannot stay in our house. Don't let our children's ears be polluted by their dirty deeds."
Once it involves his grandson, Lu Yongfu also feels that he has not considered it carefully. Fortunately, he did not promise Lu Xiaoting anything.
After discussing, the family decided to call Tian Liping.
...
In the past few days, the villagers of Yaoshui Village have been helping the Lu family find the child, so there has been someone guarding the phone at the biscuit factory.
The village chief's wife answered the phone.
Lu Yongfu asked what was going on at home.
The village head’s wife said that Lu Xiaoting had not been found yet, and Tian Liping had gone out to look for her, and had not returned yet. She asked if Lu Mingxuan should answer the phone.
Lu Yongfu said no, and did not tell anyone that Lu Xiaoting had come to Beijing.
The next day, Lu Yongfu called back home again. The village head’s wife said that Tian Liping might have gone to a distant place to look for her, and had not returned yet.
Lu Yongfu was troubled by this.
Tian Liping was not at home, and Lu Yongfu was worried about letting Lu Mingxuan pick her up.
Liang Qiaoli said, “If it really doesn’t work, take the trouble to send her back.”
This was the best solution at the moment.
…
Du Yongfu went to the guesthouse and offered to personally send Lu Xiaoting back. When Lu Xiaoting heard this, she huddled in a corner and trembled, looking very pitiful.
"Xiaoting, Third Grandpa will personally send you back and will explain everything to your mother, asking her to protect you well."
Lu Xiaoting begged Lu Yongfu: "Third Grandpa, please let me stay. I can do everything, including washing clothes, cooking and taking care of the children. Just give me a place to live and something to eat."
Xiaoting, you are not a child anymore, and you should know that we have no obligation to take care of you.
Xiaoting stood up with a dejected look: "Since Third Grandpa is unwilling to take me in, there is no point in me living."
As she said that, Lu Xiaoting rushed to the wall.
Lu Yongfu quickly stopped her, and Lu Xiaoting's forehead was also scratched.
"Why are you so extreme, kid? The more you are like this, the more I can't leave you in our house. If something really happens, who can take the responsibility?"
"Third Master, I beg you, I promise I won't seek death in the future, as long as you give me a way out."
Lu Yongfu was in a dilemma.
He was afraid that Lu Xiaoting would have another accident on the way back, and he couldn't explain it. He
could only let Lu Xiaoting continue to stay in the guesthouse and go back to discuss countermeasures with his family.
...
Lu Xiaoting was not an adult, and there was no way to force her to go back.
Lu Yongfu looked at Shen Jiale: "Jiale, what do you think is the best way to deal with this matter?"
Shen Jiale said: "Dad, let me do it. I don't have any better idea."
Liang Qiaoli saw what Shen Jiale meant and said: "Why is their family always restless? It's fine if they make trouble at home, but they also come to Beijing to cause trouble for us. Send her back. She is his own daughter. If he doesn't behave like a human being, no one can stop him."
Lu Mingfeng said: "Leave it to me."
...
Guesthouse.
Lu Xiaoting came to the door of a room and quietly opened the door.
The door opened quickly and Lu Xiaoting was pulled in.
"Didn't I tell you not to come to me during the day? Why don't you listen?"
The person who spoke was Tian Liping.
Tian Liping was exhausted during the days of searching for her daughter, and her family's attitude made her heartbroken. She didn't want her daughter to continue living in that environment, so she sent her daughter to Beijing.
But Lu Xiaoting was a little girl who had never been far away, and she immediately became timid when she heard that she was going to such a far place.
Tian Liping was also worried about her daughter going out alone, so after thinking it over, she decided to leave with her daughter.
Lu Xiaoting asked, "Mom, will Third Grandpa really let me stay?"
"Did you say what I taught you?"
Lu Xiaoting nodded, puzzled, "Mom, why did Third Grandpa let me stay after I told him that Dad went into my room at night? Dad also went to my brother's room?"
In order to let her daughter stay in Beijing, what does it matter if she discredits her husband?
Anyway, Lu Mingxuan has no good reputation.
"Next, don't say anything, just insist that you will never go back to your hometown. Go back to your room and come to mother's room at night."
...
Lu Xiaoting was about to go to her room when she saw Lu Mingfeng standing in front of the door and knocking.
"Second uncle."
Lu Mingfeng asked, "Where did you go just now? A girl like you shouldn't run around everywhere."
Lu Xiaoting explained that she went to the toilet and opened the door to let Lu Mingfeng in.
"Do you really not want to go back to your hometown?"
Lu Xiaoting nodded.
"You are young and can't find a job. How do you plan to make a living?"
Lu Xiaoting lowered her head and said, "I can do any job. I can find a restaurant to wash dishes. I don't need wages, as long as I have food and accommodation."
"What if I am bullied by others?"
"I only work and never cause trouble."
"Sometimes, even if you don't cause trouble, trouble will find you. Aren't you afraid?"
Lu Xiaoting raised her head and said, "I am afraid, but I am more afraid of going home!"
Lu Mingfeng was silent for a while, then said to Lu Xiaoting: "What grade are you in at home?"
"Graduated from junior high school."
"Didn't you go to high school?"
"Grandma said it's useless for girls to read too many books, so she asked me to help my mother do more work at home."
"If I let you take the exam again, are you sure you can get into high school?"
Lu Xiaoting's eyes lit up: "Uncle, what do you mean, can I go to school again?"
"I can arrange for you to repeat in the third year of junior high school. There is not much time left. If you can get into high school, you can stay in Beijing to study in the future. If not, whether you are willing or not, I will force you to return to your hometown."
Lu Xiaoting said excitedly: "I will definitely pass!"
"I'll ask the village chief to send your household registration books to you and help you register for school."
Lu Xiaoting hurried over, took out the household registration book from her bag, and handed it to Lu Mingfeng with both hands: "Uncle, I've got it!"
Lu Mingfeng looked at Lu Xiaoting for a moment, then took the household registration book and said to Lu Xiaoting: "Call your mother over."
Lu Xiaoting was nervous and stammered: "My mother...my mother is in my hometown."
Lu Mingfeng stared at Lu Xiaoting without saying a word.
Lu Xiaoting's forehead was covered with cold sweat.
At this time, the door was pushed open and Tian Liping walked in: "I knew I couldn't hide it from you, Mingfeng. That home is like an abyss. I don't want Xiaoting to fall into it. Please help us. I
have money in my hand, which is enough for Xiaoting to go to school.
If you can help Xiaoting to go to school, we mother and I will never disturb your life in the future.
I just ask you not to tell them the news of our coming to Beijing."
