Chapter 409: Staying Out of the Spotlight
Gangzi frowned and thought about it, then waved his hand and said, "Don't think about it too much for now, just avoid the limelight first!"
After saying that, Gangzi hurried to the woodshed. He opened the door and found Xia Wange in a daze. She didn't react when she saw him coming. He frowned, grabbed the other end of the chain on her hand, and said seriously, "Follow me!"
Xia Wange glanced at the other person's expression, and without saying anything, she slowly stood up and followed him.
She was a little full from eating just now and now feels a little dizzy.
In order not to leave any food for that woman, she was eating desperately. If she stayed here for a few more days, she would gain weight by eating and sleeping.
The chains jingled against the ground. Xia Wange followed Gangzi silently. They passed a low wall and Gangzi greeted the people inside. "Aunt Wang, are you cooking? Is Uncle Wang here?"
"He went to help lock up his nephew's husband." Aunt Wang said while cooking, "He also brought a chicken. By the way, your wife also bought a chicken today. How does it taste?"
"It's fine. For the sake of the village chief's young master, I stewed some soup for the one behind me. See if it's much better than last time? Okay, Aunt Wang, I won't say any more. I'll send the person over first." Gangzi said, and then he continued to move forward with Xia Wange.
Xia Wange kept staring at Aunt Wang. She clearly saw that when Gangzi stopped asking questions, Aunt Wang breathed a sigh of relief. Then her hand, which had been hidden under her apron, slipped and a bottle fell out, with a strange colored liquid in the bottle.
Then Aunt Wang hurriedly picked up the bottle. She looked around and met Xia Wange's gaze who was observing her. Aunt Wang's eyes revealed panic and pleading.
Xia Wange smiled. Although she was weak, she still tried her best to shout to Aunt Wang: "Aunt Wang, your sweater is so beautiful! There are many patterns I have never seen before. It must have taken a lot of effort, right? And Aunt Wang, you are so fat. It must be because your cooking smells so good. If I were you, I would give more to your man and not eat it myself. Lose weight! You will still be beautiful when you go out in the future."
Aunt Wang's expression changed again and again. She walked to the door and spat, "You are the only one who talks too much. What's wrong with me being fat? Did I eat your rice?"
After saying that, Aunt Wang closed the kitchen door.
At this time, Gangzi pulled the chain and said unhappily: "What are you talking about? Mind your own business!"
Xia Wange curled her lips and said, "I plan to stay in the village in the future, so I should chat with them more now. After all, I will soon be the wife of the village chief's son, and I will have to take care of things in the future."
"Ha." Gangzi sneered, "You think too far ahead!"
After saying that, Gangzi quickened his pace and took Xia Wange to the southeast corner of the village.
The already weak Xia Wange staggered behind the other person, trying hard to maintain the balance of his frail body.
On the other side, after Aunt Wang closed the kitchen door, her hands were shaking. She took out the half-remaining bottle of pesticide with trembling hands and stared at the medicine in the bottle intently.
This was something she saved up bit by bit.
She has been here for many years. The kitchen knives are tied to the kitchen with a chain, and she is not allowed to touch any sharp tools. Living here day after day, she has become a little numb. The person who bought her is a chicken farmer. After she stopped making trouble, she has meat to eat every day. Her life is indeed much better than others.
Sometimes she kept thinking that this was how life was, this was how her life was, it was all fate.
But last night, she had a dream. She dreamed about the days before she was abducted. She was a college student, the pride of her family, and an excellent student that her teachers liked. Her life could clearly move towards another bright future, but now she was trapped here because she was satisfied with having meat to eat every day!
The resentment that had been buried for a long time suddenly sprouted in her heart and intensified. When she woke up this morning, she even wanted to strangle the man who was sleeping next to her!
But she held back and took out the pesticides she had saved bit by bit.
He had always been on guard against her and never let her touch anything dangerous. This was because she would always take advantage of the little bit of water left in the spray box when he came back from spraying pesticides.
I saved a little this time, a little that time, and after all these years, I finally saved up half a bottle.
Originally this was prepared for herself, but when she couldn't bear it anymore, she drank pesticide and committed suicide!
But now she is preparing to poison the entire family.
It just so happened that the man invited his family to dinner today. That was the best thing. She could poison all these beasts to death at once, including herself!
only......
What the woman said just now made her waver.
She complimented her sweater on how pretty it looked.
This is her mother's hand-knitted sweater! This is her favorite sweater. She wears it to go back to school, she wears it to participate in club activities, she wears it...
She was abducted while wearing it.
She had intended to die wearing it.
But she is not ready to die now. She wants to kill all those beasts and then walk out beautifully wearing this dress!
The village chief's house is also in the southeast corner. It stands on a slope and is a two-story building with a yard. It looks very different at first glance, as if it has a natural barrier with the entire village. The secret room under the tomb is also in the southeast corner of the village, just behind the village chief's house over a small hill.
It is not difficult to imagine that the human trafficking is led by the village chief's family. When the industry line matures, it will be handed over to a few selected smart people, and they will receive a share of the profits.
The village chief's family controlled the information channels, and even every time they escaped inspection, the secret room where the woman was hidden was closest to the village chief's house.
It was a bit difficult to walk uphill. Xia Wange followed Gangzi with great effort. As she walked, her originally weak steps gradually became firmer, and her heavy breathing after taking two steps gradually disappeared. Xia Wange looked down at the iron chain that tightly bound her wrists, and the corners of her lips slowly curled up.
You are finished.
As she had initially speculated, the southeast corner of the village was likely just outside her weak spot boundary.
Thinking of this, Xia Wange's expression became relaxed. Just as she was thinking about how to capture the entire village in one fell swoop, she suddenly staggered and almost fell to the ground.
Xia Wange widened her eyes and looked in shock at the place she had just walked past. She was completely speechless.
The boundary of emotional weakness is not a smooth curve at all!
This border is a crooked line!
No wonder.
No wonder the master said that the boundaries of her weaknesses needed her to measure them herself step by step.
One of her feet was empty, the other was solid, and sometimes half of her feet were empty and the other half were solid...
So abstract.
