After Zheng Xiaojuan took the baby, the first thing she did was check for any signs of congenital heart disease. She did look at the baby after giving birth, and the baby's face was blue, which the doctor said was a sign of congenital heart disease.
Since the child didn't cry, Zheng Xiaojuan believed the doctor's advice and gave up the child. However, she remembered that the child had a very obvious mole between his eyebrows, and this child also had a similar mole between his eyebrows.
She looked at the child's appearance carefully again and found that he did not look like the three daughters of Liu Laokou's family.
The three girls weren't particularly good-looking, not exactly ugly, but they weren't very likable either. This little boy, though dirty, had pretty features if you looked closely.
Zheng Xiaojuan and Shi Dayong were both not ugly. In other words, when Zhan Yinhua and the others chose their targets, they first had to choose the right time, and then they also had to choose the appearance.
People have spent money, who would spend good money to buy a deformed child?
Zheng Xiaojuan held the child and looked at Shi Dayong, nodding secretly, thinking that this must be their child. At least now the mark matched.
In addition, based on the child's appearance and the villagers' description of the child's origin, they can basically conclude that this is not the Liu family's biological child.
Zheng Xiaojuan said to the villagers in a tentative tone: "This child doesn't look much like her three sisters. Who does she take after?"
The villagers did not say it directly. After all, if this matter was made public, the villagers would offend others.
The three girls stood timidly in the yard, not daring to speak to these strangers. Zheng Xiaojuan said to the three girls, "Your parents are really willing to give such young children to you to raise..."
Erni was even bolder than Dani, and stammered, "We don't want to be in charge, but our parents insist we do!"
Zheng Xiaojuan asked again: "When will your parents come back? How do you usually live?"
Erni replied, "My parents didn't leave us any money, so we ate the food and vegetables grown at home. My younger brother also ate with us..."
While Zheng Xiaojuan was getting close to the children, Sun Aimin, Shi Dayong and Shi Erqiang went out of the yard and found a deserted place to discuss things.
Shi Dayong said: "My wife said that the child has a mole between his eyebrows. This child also has it there. It is very likely that he is my son..."
Shi Erqiang said: "No matter if he is my nephew or not, I think that boy is not the biological child of this family. He must have been abducted..."
Sun Aimin thought for a moment and said, "We can't just take the child away. There are so many people in the village, and if we try to rob her, none of us will be able to escape. I'll call the police first and have them come and take the child away."
After the few people discussed it, Sun Aimin took out his mobile phone and made a call directly to the director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau. The director then assigned a task to the County Public Security Bureau, asking them to send people to the village as soon as possible.
It was almost noon, and the villagers had gone home to cook. Liu Laokou's daughters, Da Ni and Er Ni, also began to prepare the meal. Sun Aimin and his friends stayed in the yard under the shade of a tree, letting the children do their own thing.
Zheng Xiaojuan held the little boy tightly in her arms, boiled some hot water, and said she wanted to give the little boy a bath.
The children didn't care. After all, they had no one to teach them how to be clean, even in the summer. Now that someone wanted to help their brother bathe, they didn't object.
While Zheng Xiaojuan boiled water, she handed the child to Shi Dayong. She found a larger wash basin in the outer room and repeatedly washed it inside and out with detergent until it was finally clean.
Then she scooped some cold water from the water tank and added it to the boiling water in the pot. When she was sure the water temperature was about the same, she put the little boy into the basin.
You don’t know until you wash it. You’ll be shocked when you do. A lot of mud can be rubbed out of this one-year-old child’s body, and the water from the first wash is black.
After pouring out the water, she replaced it with clean warm water and washed the little boy again, especially rubbing his face, neck, armpits, thighs and other parts carefully.
The child was dirty and sweating a lot in the hot summer, so his neck and armpits were red. He must have felt uncomfortable when he touched the water and cried.
After Zheng Xiaojuan gave the child a bath, he finally looked like a little baby, white and chubby, and quite adorable.
Zheng Xiaojuan asked Sanni to find some clean clothes for the child to change into, and the child kicked the ground happily with his legs.
Maybe because he was familiar with Zheng Xiaojuan, he was much happier in Zheng Xiaojuan's arms and could even babble a few words, but the words he could say were still less than those of a child growing up in a normal family.
Zheng Xiaojuan held the baby who had just taken a bath in her arms, and she couldn't let go of him. She was so fond of him that the grown men also came over to play with him.
Dani and Erni prepared the meal. It was a simple dish, just some white porridge, two cucumbers picked from the vegetable garden for a cold salad, some sauce from a big jar, and a few washed green onions. That was a meal.
Erni politely invited several strangers in the yard to have dinner, but Sun Aimin and others declined.
Zheng Xiaojuan was more careful and was thinking about how to get close to this family after arriving in the village. She specially bought a few bags of snacks and now placed them on the kang in the house.
Sanni had never seen anything like it before, and after studying it with Erni for a while, they finally opened it. The three sisters tasted the snack and were completely blown away by its flavor.
In the memories of these three sisters, except for the time when their mother bought them fried pancakes during the Chinese New Year market, they almost never ate anything bought outside.
Sanni held on to the snack bag tightly and didn't even eat her meal. Erni would reach out and grab a handful of snacks from Sanni's arms from time to time.
Sun Aimin and three others held the child in the outer room. Zheng Xiaojuan dipped a little bit of sauce with chopsticks, mixed it in the porridge bowl to add some flavor, and fed the child a bowl of white rice porridge.
The child must have been accustomed to eating this kind of food. He had a good appetite and even finished a whole bowl of porridge.
After they finished their call from Sun Aimin, they waited for about an hour before the people from the county public security bureau arrived.
The Public Security Bureau sent a total of four people in two cars, mainly considering that Sun Aimin and others needed to be transferred.
These people were all in uniform and drove police cars. In consideration of the strong reaction of villagers in some places to the anti-trafficking campaign, they were also equipped with guns.
