Chapter 52 Chen Tang asks for help
After sending the manuscript in his hand, Chen Tang planned to look for Lin Xiao.
Today should be the market day in the countryside, and there are quite a lot of people on the streets.
Especially the road to the supply and marketing cooperative was crowded all the way.
Suddenly, Chen Tang felt someone bump into her. She didn't fall, but the auntie who bumped into her from behind knocked her over.
When everyone saw that everyone had fallen, they dispersed to free up the space.
Chen Tang was the closest and reached out to help: "Auntie, are you okay?"
The old lady lay on the ground, groaned twice, grabbed her arm tightly, and cried out:
"My daughter-in-law, I finally found you. Our family is a little poor, but when you married Zhuzi, I gave you a full 200 yuan as a betrothal gift. You can't abandon your children and your man at home just because you found a man outside!
Oh my God, how could Zhuzi fall for a wife like you? You don't take care of the mess at home, eat more than anyone else, and run away with another man. I must be blind to let Zhuzi marry you!"
The people next to him cried and said, "This is a matter in our village. It's really a family disgrace that should not be made public.
Amei, you should hurry back with your mother-in-law. Your child is crying and has a fever and has been sent to the hospital. If you don’t go back, you may never see your child again.”
The onlookers also began to criticize: "This girl is dressed so well, maybe she stole money from her family to buy it. How heartless must she be to run away? Two hundred yuan for the bride price? She is marrying a rich girl, right?"
"That's right, girl, even if you don't like your husband, you have to think about your child. He's crying and has a fever. He must be so sad!"
Chen Tang suddenly panicked, thinking he had encountered a human trafficker!
But she is a modern person after all, and she has heard of many cases of trafficking in women.
When encountering such a situation, the worst thing to do is to only think about clarifying yourself, but instead fall into the trap they designed.
She tried hard to suppress her panic and keep herself calm.
"Don't be fooled by them, they are human traffickers. Look at this woman, she is wearing tattered clothes and her hands are covered with calluses. How can I, who has never done farm work, be their daughter-in-law?"
Everyone had never encountered this kind of trafficking case and they were confused for a moment.
Chen Tang was wearing small leather shoes, a Dacron shirt, and military pants. He looked well-off and did not look like a country boy.
The woman looked at the man who spoke first and cried even louder: "You are my daughter-in-law!
You are a city person, but your parents favor boys over girls, and my son likes you, so I spent so much money to marry you.
You can't just take the money and deny it, and bully a country bumpkin like me!"
At this time, a black-faced man squeezed in from the crowd, and tried to grab Chen Tang with red eyes.
"Wife, this is all my fault. I shouldn't have asked you to get up so early in the morning to cook. Don't be so angry. If you don't want to go to the fields, don't go. If you don't want to cook, don't cook. Come back with me. I will love you well in the future."
Chen Tang almost vomited when she smelled the sweaty odor on him. She simply kicked the old woman on the leg, causing her to let go of her hand in pain, and obviously avoided the man.
"You said I'm your wife, then why don't you show me your marriage certificate!"
The man immediately said, "Who would carry a marriage certificate with them? Honey, stop making a fuss and come back with me."
"That's right. Who would carry a marriage certificate with them? Girl, if you elope with someone, you will be sent to a farm for reform. If your husband wasn't so devoted to you, someone would have gone to the Revolutionary Committee long ago!"
"Why are you making such a fuss? Go back with your husband. Even though he's a little ugly, he really likes you and doesn't blame you for eloping with him. Just be content!"
Seeing that everyone was trying to stop her from leaving, Chen Tang bit her trembling lips tightly, and her red eyes swept over everyone. Suddenly, she saw an old lady in the crowd holding a lot of good things.
She immediately rushed forward and slapped the old lady who was speaking.
Then he snatched the fruit from her hand, threw it heavily on the ground and stomped on it until it broke into pieces.
The old lady screamed, "What are you doing? I waited in line for a long time to buy these bananas!"
The woman trafficker on the ground realized something was wrong and suddenly jumped up, grabbed Chen Tang's hand and dragged him towards the gangs, while apologizing to the screaming auntie.
"I'm so sorry, my daughter-in-law has a bad temper. I'll take her away now."
"You want to leave without paying? I spent a full ten dollars on these bananas. If you don't pay, go find the police!"
Chen Tang's eyes lit up: "Go find the police if you want, I won't compensate you, you are such a stinky and cheap person, I will never compensate you even if I kill you!"
The auntie was so angry that she rushed over and hit Shen Tang.
Chen Tang kicked the man who tried to cover her mouth in the lower body, and when the auntie hit him, she quickly lowered her head and slapped the woman trafficker with a crisp slap.
The scene was in chaos. Just as Chen Tang broke free from the woman trafficker's hand and tried to run, he was stopped by the man who had claimed to be from the same village.
She subconsciously glanced at the crowd and suddenly saw Han Zhongguo in military uniform.
Chen Tang was delighted and shouted loudly: "Captain Han... um~"
Her mouth was covered and her hands were controlled. Two human traffickers dragged her out of the crowd and said, "Wife, let's go home now. Don't make trouble anymore. I won't hold it against you for what you did before..."
The woman trafficker took money out of his pocket and gave it to the woman whose fruit was trampled. He bowed his head and said, "I'm really sorry, my wife has a bad temper. We will take her away now."
The aunt took the money and said, "Marrying a daughter-in-law like this is really unlucky for eight lifetimes!"
Chen Tang couldn't pull the other person's hand away, so he was so scared that he bit his hand until it bled, and then he kicked the other person so hard that he almost lost his offspring!
The man let go in pain. Chen Tang didn't care about his image and rushed to Han Zhongguo: "Captain Han, save me..."
Han Zhongguo looked at the finger marks on Chen Tang's face, his light brown eyes filled with tears, full of panic and hidden fear.
He was silent for a moment.
Quickly pull the person behind you.
His duty as a soldier did not allow him to see the victimized woman and do nothing.
Even though this man was his wife's enemy.
He looked at the three traffickers coldly: "What are you doing? Taking a woman by force in public?"
The crowd thought he was standing up for justice and immediately came to the defense of the three human traffickers.
"Comrade soldier, please don't meddle in other people's business. This is their daughter-in-law. They said she eloped with someone and was caught."
Han Zhongguo's face was cold: "This girl is from our military art troupe. When did she become your daughter-in-law?"
Everyone immediately stopped talking. What was going on? Could these three people really be human traffickers?
Shen Tang popped his head out from behind him, pursed his lips and tears welled up in his eyes, looking embarrassed and panicked, yet he had not forgotten his grudge.
"I said I didn't know them, they were all human traffickers, everyone should quickly catch them and send them to the police station, maybe I could get a reward."
The three traffickers looked panicked.
That woman didn’t say that the girl was from the military zone!
Even if they had a hundred courages, they would not dare to abduct people from the military district. If something goes wrong, all of them would be caught!
The three wanted to escape, but everyone stopped them immediately because Shen Tang said there was a bonus.
One by one, they grabbed the three traffickers tightly and rushed to the police station, fearing that the prize money would be taken away by someone else.
Just then, a tall man walked towards this side quickly.
"Sugar!"
