"You've done very well. The rest is up to them. Besides, this might be the same punishment they gave you before. You know, if you do too many bad things, there will be retribution."
"Okay, okay, let's stop crying. We're going to cry like little cats. Let's go home, okay?"

On this day, the Xia family still had not found their child, and their family finally accepted the fact that their child had been abducted by human traffickers.
So from then on, in addition to looking for people outside every day, they had another job, which was to wait for Old Man Xia at the police station all day.
After Xia Jin got the news from Dachuan, she didn't know what to say. If an ordinary person lost their child, she would be sad and worried, but this was her enemy, the person she hated the most, so she really didn't know what to say.
So she could only keep silent, as if saying anything would be wrong. After the people left, she went back to her room.
Monday morning
After finishing breakfast, Xia Jin rode Gu Jingmo's bicycle to school. When she arrived at the classroom, she put her things away and took out her textbook to study quietly.
After waiting for a while, Chen Xin came over. He put down his schoolbag and leaned over to Xia Jin and whispered, "Have you found Xia Qingqing's brother? Was he really abducted by human traffickers, or did he run away on his own?"
Xia Jin raised his head from the book and said, "They haven't found him yet. He must have been a trafficker. If he had gotten lost on his own, they would have found him long ago."
"They have no money and no place to stay, and those two can't stand any hardship. If they haven't returned in two days, they must have been kidnapped."
"They've searched the entire county these past two days, but haven't found it yet. I don't know if they'll ever find it again."
After hearing what she said, Chen Xin was silent for a while. He could no longer laugh at them or gloat over their misfortune like he had done before, so he could only remain silent.
After a while, she came over and said, "Did their family cause you any trouble? Didn't that old woman say you took their child away?"
"After you scolded her, her family didn't find the child and didn't come back to look for you?"
Xia Jin shook her head and said, "She didn't come looking for me, but I ran into Liu Xiu when I was having dinner with A Jing. We had a few arguments. It seems she still blames me, but she just couldn't find me."
"She looked like a madman, with bloodshot eyes. She might have not slept for a long time. Her clothes were not clean and her hair was messy. If someone didn't know her, they would really think she was crazy."
"But they didn't come to me, but they did go to the Luo family. At that time, they not only suspected me, but also suspected the Luo family, but they didn't curse them."
"After all, they also knew that they had a grudge against the Luo family, so they suspected that they kidnapped two children to avenge them. But that was the only time they were scolded and sent away by Grandma Luo."
"Maybe it's been too long since they found her, and they're in no mood to make a fuss anymore. After all, these two children are the lifeblood of their family. If nothing else, even if they want Old Lady Xia's life, I might give it to them without a second thought."
Chen Xin said, "Is that so? The two families are equally matched. Judging from the situation, Xia Qingqing won't be coming to school today."
Xia Jin sneered when she heard this and said, "Don't even bother coming to school. If they can't find her, there will be something worse waiting for her."
"She might be forced to drop out of school and then go looking for someone else. After all, it's their precious lifeblood that's missing."
Chen Xin said puzzledly: "I really don't know what these people are thinking. What's wrong with girls? I'm the only one in my family, and my parents didn't say anything."
"Girls can go to school and work in factories. I don't know what time it is, but they still don't like us."
Xia Jin smiled and said, "They think that girls have to get married, and their children won't have their surnames, so that's how it is. I really don't know what good inheritance they have when they are so poor."
"Look at our class of more than 40 people, and there are only 10 girls. Ninety percent of the people who go to the orphanage are girls, and if there are any boys, they are usually disabled."
"In their eyes, the only use of girls is to exchange for a dowry so that their brothers can marry and have children."
Chen Xin said, "It's really annoying. It's like my uncle who saw that I was the only one in the family and kept wanting to give his son to my dad, saying he would be the one to break pots when he got old."
"She said that girls will get married sooner or later, and sons are better. Bah, she's just attracted to our family's money. My father rejected her several times, but she still said the same thing, so our family cut off contact with her."
After saying this, he sulked for a while before adding, "Although I hate Xia Qingqing, I still hope his two brothers can come back. No matter what, we can't support human traffickers."
As they were talking, someone suddenly interrupted, "What were you two whispering about this morning? And so quietly, if you have something to say, tell us both."
Chen Xin was startled by him and scolded him with a smile: "You scared me to death. This is our Xiaojin's secret. I won't tell you. If you want to know, please beg me."
"Tsk, I'm not begging you. I can just ask Xia Jin. He knows anyway."
"Xiao Jin, don't tell him." "Xia Jin, tell me what happened quickly." The two people spoke at the same time. After they finished speaking, they looked at each other, and then avoided each other in disgust.
Looking at the two of them, Xia Jin said with some amusement: "Who should I listen to, you two?"
"Listen to me." The two people said at the same time.
After a while, they finally learned about this matter from Chen Xin. After that, Chen Xin didn't let them tell anyone else, so as to avoid it from spreading and causing some bad influence.
The two of them nodded repeatedly, and Li Xiangqian said thoughtfully: "I said that the person I saw on the street yesterday looked like Xia Qingqing's grandmother."
"But then I thought it was impossible. Fortunately, she is a wealthy family. How could she end up like that? She looks like a crazy beggar."
"Now that I think about it, I wasn't wrong. It really was her. If it was because of this incident, it's understandable that she ended up like that."
When the get out of class was over, Pan Qiancheng called Xia Jin out of the classroom. After following him out, he looked at the man standing there with an embarrassed look on his face and said with a smile, "Tell me if you have anything to say."
