Chapter 321 Su Nancheng Takes Action
Chen Tang received a call from Zhou Su at noon the next day. He found out something. Chen Cui did have a new friend, and he had instigated her to reveal Chen Tang's information to the Chen family in order to gain merit.
However, when he went to check on that person again, he found out that the other party did not live in the courtyard house that Chen Cui mentioned. It seemed that he had deliberately created an opportunity to get to know Chen Cui, and now that he was discovered, he immediately ran away.
Zhou Su said he would continue investigating.
But Chen Tang knew that if he continued to investigate, he would not get any information. Haishi was too big, and the other party might not even be from Haishi. Now that he had disappeared, it was like a fish entering the sea, and it would be difficult to investigate.
Realizing that someone was really against him, Chen Tang stayed in his own little home these days and didn't go anywhere else.
It’s not that she didn’t want to find out who was behind this, but He Xu was not there and the child was still with her, so she couldn’t take any risks.
On He Zhi's birthday, Chen Tang planned to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some cakes and then invite his friends to have a meal together.
He Zhi was wearing clean clothes, and Qiangzi wanted to play with him, but he refused.
He put his hands behind his back, raised his head, and watched everyone play like he was lecturing: "Today is my birthday. See? These are new clothes. I can't get them dirty while playing with you."
Qiangzi saw that his short shirt was so white and reached out to touch it, but He Zhi slapped his hand away.
"What are you touching? Your hands are so dirty."
Da Hu said enviously: "Atang, your mother is so good to you. You even have new clothes to wear on your birthday."
Unlike him, he always wears his brother's clothes during the Chinese New Year.
Goudan said: "I heard from my mother that it's because Aunt Shen only has one child, Atang. If there were two more, there wouldn't be enough money to spend, and there wouldn't be so many good things."
Da Hu thought he was right: "My mom always says this to me and my brother. She always blames us two for eating up the family. In fact, we kids don't eat much at all. It's the adults who eat a lot, so she uses the children as an excuse."
Qiangzi touched his head and said, "But I am also an only child. My mother didn't buy me clothes or a small cake on my birthday."
Goudan thought about it and said something heartbreaking: "That's because your family is poor."
Qiangzi had a snotty nose and a dull look on his face: "Is my family... very poor?"
Goudan patted him on the shoulder: "It's okay, Qiangzi. My mom said that the poorer, the better."
Qiangzi rolled his eyes at him and said, "No, I'm too poor to have any cakes."
Seeing everyone arguing, He Zhi said generously: "Okay, stop arguing. My mother asked me to invite you to my house for dinner. My mother also cooked meat for me. Don't worry, we will eat enough today!"
"Wow, Atang you are so nice, Aunt Shen is nice too." Speaking of meat, Da Hu's saliva was about to drip.
He Zhi raised his chubby little chin proudly: "Of course."
At this time, Shi Tou ran over with a note in his hand.
"He Zhi, come with me to a place quickly, someone is asking for help."
He Zhi was confused: "Where did this come from?"
Shitou said: "My classmate secretly gave it to me. She is from a nearby village. Her father often comes to the farmer's market to sell fish. When I went to buy fish with my mother this morning, she cried and said she was going to be sold."
He Zhi: "What's written on it?"
Several children who could not read gathered together and looked left and right. Among the five people, less than two could recognize all the words above.
Shitou touched his head and said, "I don't know either. I only know the word 'tree'."
He ranks last in school.
He Zhi: "Then how do you know she asked you for help?"
Shitou: "She said that her father wanted to sell her to the idiot child bride from the next village."
He Zhi thought of the last time his mother was angry, and said hesitantly: "Well, then there is nothing I can do."
Shitou pulled him aside and said, "Think about it. Why don't we sneak out to help her? If that doesn't work, we can pool our money and buy her out."
"What next after buying it?" He Zhi asked.
Shitou was a little shy: "Just be my wife."
"Tsk~" The four children rolled their eyes at the stone.
"Then I can't just watch her get sold. Atang, you have a lot of ideas. Can you help me think of a way? Or we can sneak out and beat up her father, and then bring her back to the family compound."
He was praised by his parents for a long time for what happened last time, and he still feels a little unsatisfied.
He wanted to be a hero again.
"No, it's my birthday today and my mom is waiting for me at home. If I go out, she will find out in no time."
Shitou was very anxious: "Then, what should we do?"
He Zhi thought for a moment and said, "Then ask what's written on it first."
Shitou had no choice but to run back home to ask his sister.
After greeting, he ran back and said, "Atang, my sister said that it says that money was buried under the tree at the entrance of Qingshan Village."
He sat down on the ground, sobbing, "My little Mei, she's going to be sold, and she even told me about the money she had hidden away. Woohoo... She's so pitiful."
He Zhi was annoyed by his crying, and several other friends asked him: "When was Xiaomei sold?"
"Ten o'clock tomorrow morning, woo woo..." Shi Tou cried sadly.
He Zhi sighed: "Okay, okay, can't I help you?"
Shitou was immediately happy: "Really? Then our Sixth Legion can cooperate again!"
He likes to be a hero, and when he rescues Xiaomei tomorrow, his father will definitely praise him again.
It was He Zhi's birthday, and Chen Tang had originally only invited his aunt's family and a few of He Zhi's friends, but he didn't expect Xiao Wenwen to come to the door with gifts.
Since she was carrying a gift, Chen Tang couldn't chase her away, so he had to let her sit down first.
She spoke in a humorous way and could tell little stories. After a short while, Qiangzi and others had established a good relationship with her.
However, when Xiao Wenwen was telling the story, she did not forget to pay attention to He Zhi. Seeing him playing with his own car, her smile froze on her face.
"He Zhi, do you like the stories Auntie told you?"
He Zhi shook his head: "I don't like it."
Like how many ducks are there when they cross the bridge, or when you are taking the bus to visit your mother and you see a sick old lady, you have to give up your seat.
It's meaningless.
His mother told him many stories before he went to sleep. She said those stories were very interesting and much more fun than those told by Aunt Xiao.
"Then Auntie, please change another one." Xiao Wenwen thought he didn't like this story.
He Zhi ran away immediately: "I don't like the story you told, Auntie. I'm not riding the bus alone, and I don't know how to read. I don't want to count ducks. I want to be a hero in the future and learn from my dad."
Xiao Wenwen's face immediately darkened.
Chen Tang came out after hearing the noise and said with a smile, "This kid has been led astray by his father, don't mind it."
"Of course not." Xiao Wenwen said with a smile: "I will be back tomorrow. I still want to tease this child, but this child may not like me very much."
But she was extremely angry in her heart. This child really didn't know what was good for him. Just wait, as long as he fell into her hands, she would have plenty of ways to torture him, and then she would see if he would give in!
Chen Tang explained, "It's nothing. The boy was just a little naughty. Are you going back tomorrow? Have you reached an agreement with Captain Su?"
Xiao Wenwen nodded: "He and I have broken up peacefully. He can't return to Beijing in the short term, and it is impossible for me to live apart from my husband and raise the child by myself."
Shen Tang was still a little surprised.
But she didn't persuade her like others did, nor did she think she was too old. She just said, "That's because Captain Su is unlucky. Maybe you will find a good match in the future."
Xiao Wenwen was feeling proud as she thought that everything would be done tomorrow, and she didn't even look at Chen Tang, but only stared at He Zhi.
I think this child is good in every way, but it's a pity that he is not my own.
However, children who are too smart are difficult to tame.
When they get to Beijing, she will make the child sick. It would be best if the fever burns his brain so that he doesn't remember who he is.
Shen Tang saw that Xiao Wenwen was still staring at He Zhi, and she felt a little puzzled. For some reason, she always felt that Xiao Wenwen was a little too enthusiastic about her son.
But thinking that she would be going back tomorrow, I didn't speculate too much about her.
After dinner, Xiao Wenwen went back.
She had nothing to do in the staff quarters and often waited in Sunancheng's dormitory.
When he came back, he immediately asked, "Is the matter done?"
Su Nancheng's eyes were cold: "It's done, but if you don't treat that child well, I will kill you myself!"
