Chapter 4229: Escape 1
After Yuan Wense's phone call, Zhou Datou agreed without thinking, and then considered how to implement it.
In order to prevent the Li family from snatching Xiaosi away and causing unnecessary trouble, Zhou Datou placed the two sisters at his aunt's house and went back to discuss with his father.
Zhou Cang originally didn't want his son to get involved in his wife's family affairs, but when he heard Yuan Wense's promise to help Datou find a job in the city, Zhou Cang immediately agreed.
Originally, adults who were not particularly closely related to each other mainly relied on interests to help each other. Otherwise, no one with normal intelligence would easily agree to interfere in the internal affairs of another family.
Not to mention that Xiaosi was pitiful, there were many girls like Xiaosi in the countryside, and he had seen worse things in the commune, but he was not a savior, so how could he sacrifice his own family's interests to help these people.
Or Yuan Wense could see clearly that only profit could make Zhou Cang wholeheartedly help.
It is not easy to issue a certificate or buy a train ticket in this era. Of course, Zhou Cang has worked as a warehouse keeper in the commune for so many years and has a wide network of contacts. He has found connections, but train tickets are only available the day after tomorrow, so this
It's best for the couple to go home for two days so that they can remain calm.
Zhou Datou and his wife left their sister in the care of their aunt and returned home in fear.
Because these two couples don't think they are good at quarreling, they feel that a group of people from the Li family came over to ask them for a child, and they are really worried about whether they will expose their flaws.
However, they were particularly fortunate that no one came to see them the next day. On the third day, someone from the Li family finally came and asked them to go back. By this time, the three of them had already boarded the train.
Zhou Cang said nothing to the Li family, only that his son and daughter-in-law had something to do at a relative's house.
Zhou Cang just doesn't want to cause trouble, lest he be caught by the Li family making irresponsible remarks and causing a lot of unnecessary trouble. Anyway, let them solve the Li family's affairs by themselves.
As for whether Xiaosi's parents were hurt or sad, Zhou Cang said it didn't matter. They were willing to sell their daughter to a fool as a child bride. This small psychological barrier could still be overcome.
In the eyes of the Li family, Xiao Si simply ran away and disappeared on his own, but everyone knew that this was just a cover-up for the little girl's complicated mental journey after knowing that her family had sold her to a fool.
Mr. and Mrs. San Gouzi cried so hard that they were heart-wrenching. It made everyone sad when they saw it and shed tears when they heard it.
"Xiaosi, if you come back, my mother will regret it. She won't give you away. If you come back, my mother will be heartbroken."
Li Sangou's daughter-in-law was already crying beyond recognition. She hugged Xiao Wu and refused to let go. The little girl didn't know whether it hurt from the hug or was uncomfortable, but she also cried at the top of her lungs, crying so hard that she screamed miserably.
Everyone around was crying with them - 0 yuan and 0 pounds of cornmeal were just gone. Who wouldn't be sad?
The daughter was missing, so of course it couldn't be sold. The child was too young, so there was no need to make a grave. The couple cried and cried, and after some persuasion from unrelated people, the matter was finally settled.
During dinner, the neighbors finally left after chewing the entertainment news with relish. Of course, many felt sad for the children, but those sadnesses belonged to others. This sadness was like being dyed with the heavy bitterness of chocolate, with a hint of happiness.
