In the plot of the book, the original owner suddenly had a stomachache and went to defecate. After a while, the tractor that went to the town every day arrived at the village entrance. The human traffickers were afraid of being exposed, so they didn't plan to wait for the original owner and picked up Ning Erge and ran away.
After a while, the sound of a tractor was heard at the entrance of the village. The trafficker was reluctant to leave the other two people behind and decided to wait a little longer.
When Ning Hong saw the familiar person in the car, it was like seeing a ray of light in the darkness. She looked anxious and was about to speak.
"Zhang—Ugh!"
The trafficker noticed it first and covered her mouth tightly. After a moment of hesitation, he decided not to take the risk.
Although this girl is skinny and plain-looking, she is a girl after all and can be sold for at least 40 yuan.
Thinking of this, she looked at the direction where Ning Zhihuan was defecating with heartache, covered Ning Hong's face, picked her up and left in a hurry.
At this moment, a clear shout came from behind.
"There are human traffickers here. They are kidnapping people. Come and catch them!"
The villagers of Hongxing Village are most sensitive to the word "human traffickers". When they heard the sound, the tractor head turned heavily and chased after them with a "thump thump thump" sound.
The trafficker looked over and saw that the one who was screaming was the white doll that she thought was stupid.
"Damn it!" she cursed.
He hunted geese for years but was pecked in the eye by a goose.
Fortunately, the tractor was not going very fast and was quite far away from her. There was a small forest in front of her, and she could escape by going into it.
The human trafficker grabbed Ning Hong and ran according to the planned route. Suddenly, her feet slipped and she fell straight into a pit half a person's height. Someone had put gravel in the pit and there were also several sharpened branches stuck in it. She fell on her butt and it hurt so much!
Seeing that the villagers were about to catch up, the traffickers no longer cared about Ning Hong and grabbed the edge of the pit with both hands to get out. However, the soil at the edge was deliberately loosened, and when she exerted force, the pile of soil "clattered" and fell all over her face.
At this time, the tractor stopped in front of the pit. The person pulling the tractor was the village chief's nephew. He took the lead in controlling the human traffickers and rescued Ning Hong, who was covered in blood.
Brother Ning looked at the scene in amazement.
You know, this was the pit he and Huanbao had dug together yesterday, and he had also put the rocks and branches inside. Huanbao had said that this kind of pit was good for hunting, so he was afraid the prey would escape, so he loosened the soil on both sides.
"Huanbao, we didn't catch any prey, but we did catch the human traffickers." Brother Ning sighed.
"Isn't this the prey?" Ning Zhihuan smiled faintly, hiding his achievements and fame.
The villagers then called the village chief and took the trafficker to the police station. It just so happened that the trafficker had been committing crimes frequently in the town recently, and the police had even offered a reward. After confirming his identity, they arrested the trafficker and distributed the reward to the villagers.
After taking statements from Ning Zhihuan and Ning Erge, Old Lady Ning came to take them away.
She immediately passed her grandson and hurried over to Ning Zhihuan, hugging her tightly. "Oh my Huanbao, I was so scared! How could this damn human traffickers only target you and harm you?"
Brother Ning didn't seem sad at all about being ignored. He told the story again, raising his head proudly, "Grandma, Huanbao is very smart!"
"Huanbao is definitely smart, but you don't act like a brother. You can't protect Huanbao and you only hold her back." Old Mrs. Ning became more and more angry as she spoke. She picked up a bench and threw it at Second Brother Ning's butt.
Brother Ning covered his butt with one hand and raised the other hand above his head, "Grandma, I will try my best to be smart and protect Huanbao."
The police have handled many cases where girls were tortured to death due to preference for boys over girls. This is the first time they have seen an old man treating his granddaughter as a treasure and his grandson as trash. It is so rare.
Seeing that Old Lady Ning was really going to attack, he was so shocked that he hurried to stop her and waved to the village chief, motioning him to come over.
"The trafficker used to commit random crimes, but not this time. According to her confession, someone provided information about the Ning family and asked her to kidnap your granddaughter. I suspect that Red Star Village is hiding a related criminal chain."
The village chief shuddered.
Such a serious matter was beyond the ability of a small village chief like him to handle. It seemed that he had to report everything to the secretary.
Old Mrs. Ning thought more.
I heard from the second kid that it was Ning Hong who asked Huanbao to go out and play. Strictly speaking, the last time Huanbao was almost sold, it was Ning Hong who started it.
On second thought, Ning Hong was almost sold out this time. Maybe I was overthinking it.
After coming out of the police station, Old Mrs. Ning hugged Ning Zhihuan with lingering fear, fearing that she would be harmed again.
Ning Zhihuan wanted to suggest going to town several times, but seeing his grandmother's nervous look, he couldn't bring himself to say it.
Old Mrs. Ning had long noticed her granddaughter's hesitant look and couldn't help laughing.
"What, do you have something to say?"
"Grandma, I want to go to town alone." Ning Zhihuan held her wrist, as if to comfort her and coquettishly said, "Grandma, just promise me, I promise to come back safely."
In order to succeed, she also used her "killer move" - acting cute.
Her rosy little mouth pouted, her watery eyes opened, some water splashed out, and her chubby face puffed up, which was so cute that it almost melted Old Lady Ning.
God knows, after my granddaughter became smart, she never did this again.
Old Mrs. Ning held her chest, and Ning Zhihuan blinked.
“…Okay, okay.”
Ning Zhi hugged her arms happily, "Grandma, you are so nice, I love you the most!"
Old Mrs. Ning regretted her agreement as soon as she agreed. When she heard her granddaughter's words, she was so happy that she gave her many instructions before sending her on the tractor to the town.
After a bumpy ride all the way to the town, the tractor driver told everyone the time to return to the village, and then everyone dispersed to buy things.
Ning Zhihuan went to several state-owned factories where there were more women working, observing the women coming to work and chatting with the security guards.
She is fair and clean, and when she smiles she looks like the lucky doll in the New Year pictures. She speaks in a pleasant way, and even the security guard is willing to chat with her.
It wasn't long before Ning Zhihuan got the information she wanted. Seeing she still had plenty of time, she wandered around a bit, hoping to get a clearer picture of the market for clothing.
With a curious and inquisitive heart, she walked from one end of the street to the other, and her plans for the future gradually took shape in her mind.
After the country opened up, the economy got a huge boost, and although it’s not a market, it’s still bustling.
"Tanghulu, delicious and non-sticky Tanghulu—" the vendor shouted, "Little girl, would you like some Tanghulu? These candies are all homemade, so they're very safe!"
Ning Zhihuan swallowed.
In her previous life, she didn't have good hardware, so even though she was on Forbes, there were many things she had never eaten, and candied haws was one of them.
"How much is one?"
"Three cents!"
Ning Zhihuan felt his pocket and found only ten cents in it.
Forget it. I’ll wait until my family’s financial situation improves and then I can buy as much as I want.
She waved her hand regretfully and was about to leave when she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of her eye.
