As soon as the two women entered, Aunt Feng became anxious. "Grandma, what should I do? She remembers! She remembers everything!"
As soon as Xie Li described the human trafficker's characteristics, Aunt Feng was terrified and almost gave herself away.
Grandma Ding said calmly, "What's the rush? It's nothing serious."
He paused for a moment, then instructed, "Pack your things and go to your nephew's house in the countryside later!"
"Go to the countryside?" Aunt Feng was stunned. Although she came from a rural background, she had never wanted to go to the countryside since she started serving the Ding family. Later, she even helped her son buy a house in Linjiang City and moved the whole family there, becoming city dwellers.
Life is getting better and better, and she's about to retire and enjoy her life. How can we let her go to the countryside to suffer?
Grandma Ding was furious: "Where else can we go if not the countryside? You want to live in your big house in the city? Aren't you afraid the Xie family will come knocking on our door?"
Aunt Feng immediately fell silent.
The Xie family caused a huge scene back then, but they only clashed with the Ding family and didn't affect her directly. However, that still showed her how powerful the Xie family was. Without any evidence, they managed to get the police to open a case and investigate, even taking all of the Ding family's servants in for questioning.
This time, Xie Li directly targeted her, and she feared that the Xie family had already obtained evidence and clues.
When Grandma Ding saw that she was cowering with her head down and looked extremely frightened, she immediately became furious.
"Why are you panicking? Only you and Old Zhang know about this. Old Zhang has been hiding in the south for over ten years. The trail has gone cold. The police have already investigated, haven't they? Look what they found!"
Aunt Feng: "That's not necessarily true. Xie Li remembers! She's been smart since she was little. How could someone so young tell me she remembers me!"
Aunt Feng became increasingly anxious as she thought about it, recalling the two-year-old baby whose eyes were as calm and composed as an adult's.
Grandma Ding cursed, "Remember my ass! I think she's just bluffing you! What does a two-year-old know? She doesn't remember anything!"
Grandma Ding dedicated her life to education and had the clearest understanding of a child's growth and development. A two-year-old simply can't remember anything.
Moreover, in the years that followed, her life was filled with painful memories of being abused and beaten. Aunt Feng's treatment of her was already quite gentle, and it's impossible that she would have left an indelible mark on her.
"Alright, alright, here's the money. You should hurry up and leave. Don't waste time, or Xie Sidu might become suspicious."
Grandma Ding wasn't worried about Xie Li; she was worried about her good son-in-law.
Xie Sidu is not as gentle and refined as he appears. If he discovers something, he will dig three feet into the ground to uncover the truth.
Grandma Ding got up, feeling very uncomfortable. "Even during the New Year, they can't let people have some peace and quiet. Oh well, I'll go back to the capital in a couple of days."
If we go to the capital and hold onto Ding Huizhu tightly, we won't have to worry about Xie Sidu causing trouble.
——
I went out the door and got into the car.
They watched as the car slowly drove away from the Ding family's house.
Xie Li whispered a reminder: "Dad, I'm telling the truth. That Aunt Feng is suspicious. If we don't control her today, I'm worried she'll escape."
After she returned, she considered whether or not to tell Xie Sidu about this.
Later, I thought that since I didn't plan to have anything to do with the Ding family anyway, I might as well repay Ding Huizhu for giving birth to me.
However, Xie Sidu was a meticulous thinker. After experiencing the "Xie Family Herbal Compendium" incident and knowing Xie Li's powerful memory, he found Xie Li in his study and asked him if he remembered the truth and details of the incident when he went missing.
