"Public security comrades, please, please help us find our child and get rid of you." Mother Fu cried and threw herself on the public security comrades, almost kneeling on the ground to beg.
Fortunately, the young comrade reacted quickly and held her arms, preventing her from kneeling on the ground.
Seeing that Fu's mother was so excited, Zhang Xiaoqin couldn't remain indifferent. She also grabbed the young comrade's arm and begged, "Please, you must help me find my daughter, I beg you..." As she spoke, she was about to kneel down and beg.
This double-sided attack made it difficult for the young comrade to cope. He looked utterly embarrassed. He grabbed one in each hand and looked around, as if he was asking his colleagues for help.
"Don't get excited. I've already told you that we will do our best. Can you please calm down?"
At this moment, a police officer who looked like a leader came over. The young man looked at him as if he had seen a savior.
"Sister, aunt, please calm down. We will do our best to help you find it."
Zhang Xiaoqin and Fu's mother heard the voice and turned around to look at the man.
The young comrade hurriedly explained, "This is our director."
The two men then let go of the young comrade and turned to the director for help.
As soon as the young comrade was free, he quickly ran to hide behind the director. It was obvious that he had never experienced such a crying scene and was frightened by the two of them.
"Director, leader, you must help us!" Fu's mother said with tears in her eyes.
"This is our duty, and we'll do our best. It's just that you don't have any useful clues or specific suspects, so the hope of finding the child is slim. But we won't give up. Don't be too sad, and take care of yourselves first. Otherwise, if the child is found and you're devastated, then who will take care of the child?"
The director spoke a lot in one breath, with a very easy-going expression, and seemed like a good official who was close to the people.
Zhang Xiaoqin and Fu's mother didn't say anything, but just nodded in response.
The director said to the young comrade behind him, "Xiao Liu, call Lao Zhang and find a few colleagues who have experience with missing persons cases. Follow them back to the village to investigate. We have to investigate everything from the source."
"Yes, Chief!" The young comrade received the order and quickly ran away to find someone.
So, the three of them took a police car back to the village, accompanied by several public security comrades, who went back to the village with them to visit and inquire to see if they could find any clues in the village.
The police came to the village and began to ask questions and take statements from every household, asking them if they had seen any strangers.
Everyone was busy with their own work, so who would pay attention to these things? After a lot of questioning, no clues were found, and the public security comrades had to return empty-handed.
It was only after Zhang Xiaoqin and the others left last night that Wu Ju remembered Zhang Xiaoqin's unusual behavior today, which made her suspect that this was a play directed and acted by Zhang Xiaoqin herself.
After she saw the police officers leave, she forcibly dragged Zhang Xiaoqin into her room and asked her, "Xiaoqin, where did you take the child?"
Zhang Xiaoqin grabbed some peanuts from the table and, while peeling them, pretended to be confused and said, "Mother, what are you talking about? I don't understand what you are saying."
Wu Ju poked Zhang Xiaoqin's head with her finger. "You are my flesh and blood. I can hear even the slightest movement of your toes. Stop kidding me. Tell me, are you giving it away?"
"Ouch! Mother, it hurts! Can you please be gentler? I'm already old, please don't use the same trick you used on a child on me, okay? The child is fine, don't worry, you'll see her again soon."
Zhang Xiaoqin threw the peanut shells to the ground, crossed her legs, and looked very proud.
"You didn't lie to me?"
"Mother, I really didn't lie to you. When the child is older, I will let Niu Wa adopt her as his daughter. This way, the child can return to her biological father and I can solve my urgent need. Oh, right, you don't know! Those two old guys asked their son to come back without my knowledge and wanted to kick me out. Now that I don't have the child as solid evidence, I don't think they can do anything to me."
Wu Ju didn't say anything. She thought about Zhang Xiaoqin's words carefully and felt that what she said made sense, so she didn't ask any more questions.
The matter was left unresolved, and gradually, the villagers seemed to have forgotten that there was a child named Fu Jiaorong in this village. This matter went from being a topic of conversation after dinner to being slowly buried by time.
The two elders of the Fu family waited day and night for Fu Jun to come back, but in the end, it was as if Fu Jun had disappeared from this world, and there was no news from him.
Zhang Xiaoqin was originally afraid that Fu Jun would come back, expose the child's background, and kick her out of the house. But now she tried every means to get the child away, but failed to wait for Fu Jun to come back, so she was a little disappointed.
The old couple of the Fu family, perhaps feeling guilty for losing their child, and since Fu Jun had not returned, they did not make things difficult for Zhang Xiaoqin anymore. Instead, they lived their lives in peace and harmony, and everything was as calm as water.
Shumei is still the same as before, working hard while taking care of Zhang Binglin and two children.
In the past, everyone in the village thought she was fickle, but as time went by, no one thought so anymore.
Everyone saw Shumei's hard work and began to look at her with admiration, thinking that she was a remarkable woman who supported so many people with her own hands.
In addition to being busy with household chores, Shumei also has one thing she must do every month, which is to visit Tang Boyi in prison.
She always dressed herself up, fearing that Boyi would see her looking haggard and get worried.
