Chapter 68 Poor people must be hateful
Deng Xiuzhen turned around and saw a woman pulling away the woman who was hitting her (according to the people around her, the woman should be Yuan Qiwen's wife, Zheng Jing). While pulling her away, she said, "Talk things out. Don't hit people. If you really cause trouble, the police station will take care of it."
"Get out of my way! What's it to you?" Zheng Jing shoved the woman away and shouted.
"Hey, how can you be like this? She's just a young girl..."
"A little girl? A little girl seducing someone's husband? This isn't a little girl, she's a vixen! A slut!" Zheng Jing still held the girl down, pulling her hair with one hand and pointing at her with the other, then looked up and shouted, "Everyone, be the judge, shouldn't this vixen who seduced my husband be beaten?"
Many people watched the spectacle, and some even prepared to intervene, but upon hearing that it was a wife beating up a mistress, they all turned back.
Everyone stood by and pointed.
"He deserves to be hit! He absolutely deserves to be hit!"
"Why would someone so young be a mistress? Won't her parents be worried sick?"
"Die from worry? If it were my child, I'd kill him on the spot!"
"How shameless!"
Amidst the various discussions and accusations, Deng Xiuzhen remained silent.
She neither intervened in the fight nor stopped people from discussing it, because she had heard the truth about the matter in her previous life.
She didn't intervene because she felt the girl deserved to be hit and should be taught a lesson.
The girl was beaten so badly, but there's always a reason why someone is pitiful. What's hateful about the girl is that she gave up her self-respect and used her body to exchange for the opportunity to go to the city.
Deng Xiuzhen is a woman, a wife, and a mother of two girls. She doesn't want her husband to abandon his family like this.
It is hoped that these girls, who resort to any means to achieve their goals and even abandon their principles, will learn a profound lesson, serving as a warning to other girls and letting them know what they can and cannot do.
“You’re right, but you can’t fight anymore. If something goes wrong, you’ll be held legally responsible. It’s not worth it.” The woman didn’t pull Zheng Jing away anymore, but stood aside and earnestly advised her.
Zheng Jing seemed to have taken some of her advice to heart, and loosened her grip slightly. The girl seized the opportunity to get up, bend over, and run away with her head down.
The girl ran away, and the onlookers gradually dispersed. Deng Xiuzhen also planned to leave.
"sister in law!"
Deng Xiuzhen turned around and saw Qi Guomin. The woman who had broken up the fight was standing next to him, holding the hands of a boy and a girl.
It was them! Deng Xiuzhen remembered who Qi Guomin was!
In her past life, she had read about a child trafficking case online. An ordinary-looking, very approachable woman, along with her lover, trafficked more than a dozen children.
One family of four was originally happy and content, but their two children were abducted by human traffickers, and the couple embarked on a journey to find their children.
During her search for her son, the man died of illness, and the woman, unable to continue the search, waited for over twenty years in the place where her child was lost.
The child was only found after the traffickers were caught, but everything had changed; the child was no longer a stranger to her…
Out of sympathy, she took a few more glances and memorized the faces of those people, especially the family portrait of that family. She looked at it many times, and each time she cried.
“Sister-in-law, don’t you remember me? I’m Guomin, Yanlin’s friend. We’ve met before.” Seeing that Deng Xiuzhen was looking at them without speaking, he assumed she didn’t recognize him.
"Oh, my kin, hello, hello!" Deng Xiuzhen greeted him quickly.
"This is my wife, Fang Mei, and our children, Qi Ying and Qi Bai," Qi Guomin introduced enthusiastically.
"Girl, it's so nice to see you." Fang Mei greeted her with a light smile.
"Auntie!" the two children called out with smiles, their eyes crinkling into crescent moons.
Deng Xiuzhen's heart softened, and she became somewhat anxious. According to news reports from her previous life, their child seemed to have been abducted around this time.
"Come on, come on, come to my house for a visit," Deng Xiuzhen warmly invited them. She wanted to find an opportunity to mention it to them, to raise their awareness, and to prevent the tragedy of her past life from repeating itself.
"No, we..." Fang Mei wanted to say that they had other things to do.
Qi Guomin interrupted him, saying cheerfully, "Alright, then I'll trouble you, sister-in-law."
Fang Mei secretly nudged Qi Guomin.
Qi Guomin whispered, "Her child is a top student."
With just a few words, he had Fang Mei under his thumb. Not only did she follow him around like a puppy, but her expression became infinitely more affectionate.
Deng Xiuzhen pretended not to notice the interaction between the couple and started chatting with them.
Only then did she learn that Fang Mei's reason for advising Zheng Jing wasn't because she thought the girl was right, but because she knew the girl and couldn't pretend she hadn't seen it. Besides, the girl wasn't bad; she was just momentarily confused and got tricked by Yuan Qiwen and his group.
Deng Xiuzhen didn't mention the human traffickers along the way. It wasn't that she didn't have the opportunity, but rather that she hadn't figured out how to bring it up.
If she still had her personality from her previous life, she would definitely talk to them directly about human traffickers and warn them to be careful.
But she won't do that now; she'll be careful about her approach. Because in her past life, she had kindly reminded others, but they accused her of cursing them, not only ignoring her but also giving her a good scolding.
Take Qi Guomin and the others home, saying you have something to do outside. Have Wenjing keep Fang Mei and the others company, and have Wenxin and Wenyu play with Fang Mei's two children.
She went to Zhao Chunyan's house and told her about the human traffickers. She asked Zhao Chunyan to pretend to visit her house, and then mentioned that there was a group of human traffickers operating in Pucheng, and that some children had been abducted, and asked Deng Xiuzhen to be careful. Qi Guomin and the others overheard this and naturally took notice.
After the two discussed it, Deng Xiuzhen went back first and asked Zhao Chunyan to come over later.
When Deng Xiuzhen arrived home, she spoke a few words to Fang Mei. Zhao Chunmei hadn't arrived yet, but Tian Guoqiang came. The group had just greeted each other and hadn't gotten down to business when Zhao Chunyan came in.
When Zhao Chunyan saw Deng Xiuzhen, she said, "Xiuzhen, you need to be careful lately. A group of child traffickers have come to Pucheng. They befriend people and then abduct children. One of my relatives' children was kidnapped!"
Deng Xiuzhen pretended to be worried and quickly asked for details: "How was that child abducted?"
“Those human traffickers were quite cunning. They first rented a place next to my relative’s house, came and went normally every day, chatted warmly, and became familiar with my relative’s daughter. They became so familiar that my relative sometimes asked them to come and take care of the child. Then one day, the child was taken away.”
As Tian Guoqiang listened, some questions arose in his mind: There hadn't been any reports of children being abducted in Pucheng or the surrounding towns recently. Could it be that he hadn't heard about it since he was transferred to the bureau?
But he didn't interrupt. He always felt that the things Deng Xiuzhen mentioned were mostly for a reason, and that corresponding problems would always arise afterward. It seemed a bit eerie, but he had no choice but to believe it, because it always came true in the end.
