Jiang Baige followed the man out of Huaqiao Village. Seeing that he was going to take a car, she quickly found a place to take out the bicycle from the space.
After the man got in the car, she followed him on her bicycle.
When the car stopped again and the man got off, Jiang Baige put away her bicycle and followed him slowly.
Jiang Baige looked at her watch. It was already past five in the afternoon and it was getting dark, but the man had not arrived yet.
But she didn't dare to scare the person. If he died on the road, how would she find the child?
Then they arrived at a village, and the man knocked on a house's door stealthily.
"Open the door! Open the door!"
Soon the door opened.
The person inside asked, "Why are you here?"
The man said, "Where's my dog Dan? Call him out. I want to take him away."
The person who opened the door was an old man. When he heard that someone was there to ask for a child, he looked unhappy.
"This is what we agreed to at the beginning. You can't go back on your word once you've sold it. You agreed to it, but now you want the child again. I don't agree. Leave!"
While they were talking, Jiang Baige was watching in the space.
After the old man finished speaking, he was about to close the door.
The man pushed the door and refused to let it close.
Jiang Baige didn't care what they said and went in first.
She went to see if the child was doing well, and hoped that he would not be like his brother, who was disliked, had to work and was beaten every day.
Not seeing the child in the yard, she had already gone into the house.
The people at the door were still arguing about the child. The man said, "I won't sell it anymore. I'll give you the money back, but I have to take the child with me today."
The old man had no children, and he spent all his family’s money to buy this child. This child is his family’s life. He has raised him for more than a year, so how could he just give him back like this?
The old man thought, if he asked for a little more money, since he couldn't afford it, he might be able to keep the child.
He said, "We bought it for a hundred dollars, and now we've had it for over a year. If you give me two hundred dollars, I'll return it to you."
The man swallowed and thought, two hundred yuan, that’s too much.
Jiang Baige didn't care about the people at the door. Anyway, they couldn't see her walk into the house so arrogantly.
I heard some noise in one room and headed towards that direction.
This is the kitchen. It seems like someone is cooking. An old woman is cooking and a child is washing vegetables next to her. The picture is very harmonious.
There was a wooden basin filled with water. Goudan rolled up his sleeves and washed the wild vegetables in the hot water.
Today he dug up a lot of wild vegetables. His grandparents were very happy when they saw it, and he was happy too. He had a full stomach every day and felt warm after eating.
Jiang Baige saw the water steaming and thought, this family is pretty good, at least they gave the child hot water.
However, when she looked at the child's clothes, although he was wearing very thick clothes, they were also very old. She didn't know where he picked them up, and they were patched up and very torn.
Goudan washed the vegetables and said happily, "Grandma, the vegetables are clean."
The old woman who was cooking smiled and came over to warm her hands.
Although the child did not suffer, Jiang Baige felt that the child could not follow them.
Judging from their age, they are at least in their sixties or seventies, so they can still support him for a few more years. If they are gone at any time, what will happen to the child?
Besides, the child’s brother was still looking for him, and I found him first, so he was taken back by him.
She was just thinking about how to take care of the child when she heard the old man coming in with the man.
The old man said, "Goudan! Your father is here to pick you up, go back with him!"
They had just been bargaining for a long time outside, and seeing that the child's father really wanted to take the child away, he insisted on giving two hundred yuan and refused to budge.
But what he didn't expect was that the other party actually gave it to him. Think about it, he could earn another 100 yuan a year, so of course he was willing to do it.
You can buy a child, but if you have a boy at home, you will have to spend money to marry him off in the future. If you raise a girl, not only will it be cheaper, but she will also just have to take care of the old couple when they pass away.
So after weighing the pros and cons, he agreed.
When the man walked into the house and saw his son, whom he hadn't seen for more than a year, the smile on his face froze.
"Goudan, it's Daddy! Daddy is here to pick you up, let's go home!"
Jiang Baige stood by with a look of disdain on her face. Her two sons, one named Xiaogou and the other named Goudan, were named so casually.
When the child saw this man, he said, "Dad," and he hadn't seen him for a long time and didn't remember him very well.
He was a little afraid of strangers, so he hid behind his grandmother.
The old woman was happily cooking dinner when she suddenly heard that she had to take the child home. She dropped the spatula in her hand and protected the child behind her.
She gets angry whenever she sees the man. When she first sent the child to her, he threw the child away like stinky dog shit, took the money and left. Now he wants to take the child back.
He snorted softly, "Hmph, if you want it, just take it! No way."
The man said, "I've given you all the money. I'm definitely going to take this child away today."
The old woman said, "I didn't agree. Please leave! You are not welcome in our home."
The old couple bought the child and raised him wholeheartedly.
Even though the family has no money, we try our best to feed the child good food. Now that he is fat and plump, he wants to go back home.
Goudan also secretly looked at this person. He remembered that this was his father, but he would beat himself and his brother. He didn't want to follow a bad guy.
He said, "You are not my father. You are a bad person. I don't want to go with you."
The old man was in a dilemma when he saw that the child was reluctant to leave.
The child is well-behaved, but he is a little torn between money and the child.
Two hundred yuan is not a small sum these days. This money can last the old couple for several years, but they also want to have a descendant to continue the family line.
Seeing that the child was reluctant to leave, the man thought for a moment and then asked.
"Goudan, do you still remember your brother? He's waiting for you at home. Be good and go back with daddy! Your brother will be waiting anxiously."
When he heard the word "brother", Goudan's eyes lit up.
"Seriously, is my brother back?"
The only person Goudan still thinks of is his brother. His brother is the best to him and always holds him in his arms every time he is beaten.
Seeing that the child was easy to fool, the man nodded and spoke vaguely.
"Yes, your brother is at home, waiting for you to come back."
The child looked up at his grandmother and then at his grandfather.
Can you believe what this person says when his eyes are full of it?
When they were talking just now, the old woman was pulled by her old man and saw the money in his hand.
The couple had a tacit understanding and understood what their old man meant.
After a moment, there was a response, and the old woman nodded.
Although he was reluctant to leave his child, he still agreed.
"Well, go back with your father!"
Goudan saw that his grandparents said this, which meant they wanted him to go back.
After thinking for a while, he said, "Then I'll go back to see my brother and come back. If he doesn't come back, grandpa and grandma will come to pick me up."
The old man and the old woman nodded, with inexplicable expressions on their faces.
Can they still take the child back?
