Chapter 262 Covering

Xia Zhizhi lay on the ground for a while and felt sleepy. Ah Ju turned to the side and let her lean on him to sleep for a while.

Not long after, the girl on the outside roadside was discovered.

The girl's name is Chen Shuchan. She lives in the commune. She has just graduated from high school. Her family is well off. She is the eldest child in the family, and her parents and siblings have all found jobs.

It's not that there is really no other way. Most families are reluctant to let their children go to the countryside. The family discussed and decided that the whole family should work together to save some money and find a suitable job for her after a while.

These days, jobs are so tight that in their area, jobs suitable for lesbians pay around 600 yuan, and there is still a shortage of supply.

Although her family conditions are okay, it is not easy to arrange work for the older children. Now her parents do not have that much money, so they can only spread the task among their children, with each of them paying about a hundred or eighty yuan.

Chen Shuchan is a sensible girl. Although the parents of her elder brothers had arranged jobs for them, the job market was not so tight in the past few years and the salary was not so high. Moreover, her eldest brother found a temporary job and got it permanent.

She had to spend so much money at once. Even though her family didn't say anything, she should have been sensible and made people feel that the money was not spent on an ungrateful person, right?

Little girl Chen Shuchan has some savings, including pocket money given by her parents and brothers, as well as New Year's money. She has saved up more than ten yuan so far.

Her elder and second brothers have been working overtime in the factory recently and have not been home for half a month.

The little girl thought about going to the market today to see if she could exchange some chicken, duck, fish and meat that did not require a ticket. She could stew them in the evening to nourish the whole family and also send some to her two brothers.

She strolled around the market, but couldn't compete with the aunts and mothers.

An old lady saw her looking lost outside and came over to whisper to her, "Girl, I have two chickens at home that I can exchange with you, but you have to give me an extra 20 cents for each one."

Chen Shuchan's eyes lit up, and she patiently bargained for the price. Finally, the old lady agreed to give her five cents less.

The old lady looked distressed and said, "You are too good at bargaining, if I hadn't seen that you wanted both, I really couldn't give you less. Forget it, forget it, I am an old lady with a disability, so I can save myself the trouble of running if I give them both to you."

The old lady pointed to a secluded place next to her and said, "I'm the boss, I'm looking after the things. It's over there. Please help me over there."

Chen Shuchan was a little puzzled as to why they didn't bring it to the collection.

Normally, buying and selling is prohibited, so everyone trades secretly. But they have two big fairs a year organized by the commune, and everyone shouts openly. After all, the law cannot hold anyone responsible.

She was just a little girl who had never experienced anything like this, so she was very naive and didn't think too much about it. After all, there were many people at the market and the place was not far away. If something really happened, everyone would be able to hear it if she shouted.

Nowadays, everyone is passionate and there is no such thing as standing by and watching someone in danger.

As soon as he avoided the crowd, he was knocked down by someone with a handkerchief on his face, put into a sack, and carried to the field like a piglet.

Xia Zhizhi placed Chen Shuchan against a tree with her eyes closed. Most passersby would think she was taking a rest in the shade.

It happened that her former deskmate Li Mingming passed by. The two had a good relationship. Li Mingming saw her leaning on the side and wanted to tease her. He walked behind her and patted her shoulder vigorously: "Hey!"

Chen Shuchan was dizzy, and when Li Mingming exerted force, Chen Shuchan fell to the side.

Li Mingming was startled. She quickly reached out to support Chen Shuchan and shook her vigorously: "Chanchan, Chanchan, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Seeing that Chen Shuchan was unconscious, Li Mingming pinched her philtrum with his hands.

Chen Shuchan heard someone calling her in a daze. She wanted to answer, but her eyelids were too heavy and she could only utter a few words in her sleep.

Li Mingming reached out and touched Chen Shuchan's face. It was a little hot. She suspected that Chen Shuchan had heatstroke. If pinching her philtrum didn't work, she had an idea. She opened her water bottle and splashed the water on Chen Shuchan, intending to cool her down.

Chen Shuchan was actually woken up by her. She opened her eyes in a daze and saw Li Mingming in front of her. It took her a while to react.

Chen Shuchan immediately got up, grabbed Li Mingming's hand, and looked around nervously. After making sure that there were people coming and going on the road and that everyone was safe, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing Chen Shuchan wake up, Li Mingming breathed a sigh of relief and said concernedly, "You just fainted from heatstroke. Let me take you home to rest."

Chen Shuchan reacted and said, "I didn't have a heat stroke. Someone was selling things. They just covered me with a handkerchief!"

"Human trafficker?" Li Mingming pulled Chen Shuchan to her feet and said, "Let's go find my uncle!"

Fortunately, people are more tolerant of people who call the police these days, and they all choose to believe Chen Shuchan and do not unreasonably ask her to produce evidence.

Li Mingming's third uncle was the captain of the militia. When he heard that someone was trafficking, he immediately organized his members and searched everywhere with guns in hand.

The traffickers saw this and knew that this was all they could gain today.

They had all the props and used rough movements, dragging and tugging the two sacks of Xia Zhizhi and Ah Ju onto the cart, and then putting a few more sacks of bran on top.

One of them muttered: "Why is this stuff lighter than before?"

"You must be mistaken. Let's go." His accomplice called her.

The militia did stop them.

The old lady stepped forward and said, "Niu Dan'er, I am Aunt Guihua from the neighboring commune. I held you in my arms when you were a child. What happened?"

The militiaman was a little embarrassed: "It's Aunt Guihua. Someone reported that someone was trafficking."

The old lady was horrified: "How did you, a plague trader, come to our place? Niudaner, you better be careful and pay attention to safety!"

Niu Dan'er scratched his head and said, "Aunt Guihua, please go back first. We still have to search other places."

After tricking the militiamen away, a man chuckled and said, "It's still up to Aunt Hua to take action."

Old Lady Guihua drooped her triangular eyes and said in a low voice: "What nonsense are you talking about? Hurry up and leave."

The cart rumbled along for a long time, probably heading up the mountain.

A man muttered: "It's strange, why are these two still not awake today?"

Ah Ju was awake the whole time. As for Xia Zhizhi, Ah Ju held up the sack on top of her and she fell asleep.

Hearing the sound, Xia Zhizhi woke up and scanned with her mental power. It was still the six men and an old lady who had set out.

Old Osmanthus said, "Be careful, I'm going back now."

The man said, "Okay, Aunt Hua, please go down the mountain slowly."

Soon, a man pushed the cart loaded with bran, and the remaining five wanted to carry Xia Zhizhi and Ah Ju into the woods.

A man shouted again: "I really think this girl has lost weight, at least 10 or 20 pounds."
