After breakfast, Hua Li collected the clothes she had washed the night before, folded them neatly, wrapped them in a cloth, and asked Luo Shicheng to deliver them to the neighbor next door.
"Let him go again?" Luo Yan was worried and pulled Hua Li along to follow.
Mo Xian didn't close the door. Luo Shicheng carried two bundles in and put them on a chair.
"Hua Li gave the children old clothes; they can wear them if they're still wearable, and if they're not..."
Before he could utter the word "discarded," Hua Li, who had just walked in, heard him and spoke up.
"If you can't wear it, send it to me and I'll alter it before wearing it."
Mo Xian was worried because all the cloth coupons in his family had been given to her parents' family by Wu Cuihua, and he couldn't even buy clothes for his children. Then Hua Li came to his rescue.
Moreover, Hua Li can also alter clothes, which is really great.
"Thank you, sister-in-law..." Mo Xian said sincerely.
She was right to bring her mom along; look how nice her mom is when she speaks, unlike her perfectly normal dad who just has a big mouth and can drive you crazy with a single sentence.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Hua Li and Luo Shicheng took their leave with Luo Yan.
Back in her own courtyard, Hua Li gave Luo Shicheng a reproachful look, then smiled and kissed Luo Yan's little face.
Luckily, my daughter insisted on going with me, otherwise it would have been a case of good intentions gone wrong.
Luo Shicheng was given the cold shoulder by Hua Li. Suddenly, he remembered that he was supposed to go to Datang Village today. He told Hua Li about it, but Hua Li disagreed.
If he disagreed, he wouldn't go. Luo Shicheng agreed, then picked up Luo Yan and said he would go tell Sun Bailing.
As a result, Hua Li waited until it was time for her to go to work, but the father and daughter did not return, so she had no choice but to lock the door and go to work.
On the jeep speeding out of Jiangcheng and heading towards Xingcheng...
Luo Yan really admired Luo Shicheng's reckless spirit; he had promised Hua Li and still dared to take her on the trip.
Sitting between Luo Shicheng and Sun Bailing, Luo Yan stood tall and straight, staring straight ahead, remaining motionless for a long time.
Sun Bailing patted the little girl's head, "Yanyan, what are you looking at?"
Children are usually very active, so it's rare to see someone as still as Luo Yan.
"elder brother."
She dreamt that Xiaoxiu hitched a ride on a truck and left Jiangcheng. Since she couldn't go too far to find Xiaoxiu, she could only seize every opportunity to go out.
The little girl wasn't just playing around; she genuinely wanted to take a short break, causing a moment of awkward silence in the carriage.
Xu Tianzhong's home is in Datang Village, Tongxian County, Xingcheng, which is close to Jiangcheng and only takes more than three hours to drive there.
Upon arriving in Tongxian, the car passed by the county government building.
Upon receiving the message, the county head and other administrative leaders, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately got into their car and followed...
Inside the supply and marketing cooperative, Hua Li had just finished a round of work when a child suddenly ran in and handed her a note.
Hua Li took the note and opened it; it was written in a crooked and messy manner.
'If you want to see your child, come to Jiudaying'
Hua Li looked at the note for a long time, then put it in her pocket and asked Xiao Yanru to watch it while she went to a public phone to call home.
I called several times, but no one answered at home.
Perhaps Luo Shicheng had taken Luo Yan out to play. Hua Li returned to the counter, intending to make a call later.
Hua Li received no more notes or made any calls home all day.
After get off work, Hua Li was heading home alone when Liu Fengling suddenly appeared and blocked her way.
"Hua Li, you are really heartless, you don't even care about your own child."
Liu Fengling lost her job and had a criminal record because of Hua Li and her daughter. After being detained, Qu Yingqiu went to jail again. She was determined to get revenge.
This time, she finally got a chance, but Hua Li didn't take the bait. That won't do.
"Liu Fengling, what exactly do you want?"
Although it was still some distance from the compound, there were constant pedestrians on the road, and Hua Li did not believe that Liu Fengling would dare to do anything reckless.
Taking a few steps back warily, Hua Li took out the small flashlight that Luo Shicheng had given her from her pocket.
"Your son is in my hands. If you want him, come with me."
When Hua Li saw the child mentioned on the note, her first thought was Luo Yan. However, with Luo Shicheng around, she didn't believe anyone could harm Luo Yan, so she wasn't in a hurry.
Upon hearing Liu Fengling mention her son, Hua Li immediately thought of the missing Xiao Xiu.
Hua Li followed Liu Fengling to a nearby abandoned house, and Liu Fengling turned around.
"If you want to save your son, you have to agree to three conditions..."
The room was empty, and Xiaoxiu was nowhere to be seen. Hua Li interrupted Liu Fengling.
"You said my son is in your hands, where is he?"
Liu Fengling grabbed a broken brick from the kang (a heated brick bed) and smashed it at Hua Li's feet.
“I will not let you see your son until we have agreed on terms.”
Hua Li dodged the broken bricks, suppressed her wildly beating heart, and spoke in a cold voice.
"You don't know this, do you? I found that child. I was just about to give up on raising him when you took him away. I should really thank you."
As he spoke, Hua Li took out ten yuan and handed it to Liu Fengling.
"I came with you to tell you that this is something you and I both know. You can do whatever you want with the child. I'm leaving now."
With that, Hua Li turned and walked away without looking back.
Hua Li picked up that child, how come she didn't know?
Liu Fengling chased after her, but Hua Li had already disappeared.
The foolproof plan backfired, and Liu Fengling stormed off to find her old flame, unaware that a figure was following her at a distance.
When they arrived at Wang Sheng's house, Liu Fengling imitated the call of a cuckoo twice towards the yard. Soon after, Wang Sheng came out and pulled Liu Fengling to a shady spot.
"How did the talks go?" Wang Sheng asked.
Liu Fengling repeated all of Hua Li's words and then showed Wang Sheng the money in her hand.
Wang Sheng pushed Liu Fengling away and looked around warily, immediately spotting a figure at the corner of the neighbor's courtyard wall.
