Rebirth 90: The Long Road to Finding a Son

The next morning, after Shen Nan sent her daughter Qian Baoge to school, she went directly to Old Qian's house. The big iron lock she hung on the back door of Old Qian's house was still quietly there. It was not because the Qian family did not want to open the lock, but because Old Qian had forgotten about it.

It was already evening when Mrs. Qian and her son and grandson returned home. They were all exhausted. Mrs. Qian was so angry that she didn't even go to the back door. Qian Jincai and Qian Longbin lay down on the kang as soon as they got home, so they wouldn't notice such a thing.

As a result, the next day, Shen Nan saved himself the trouble. After returning from the village primary school, he did not even go home, but went directly to the front door of the old Qian family. Now, the ten-year-old Qian Meijuan replaced Yu Min, who ran away from home, and became the main labor force in the family.

Under the pressure of Old Lady Qian, Qian Meijuan got up at six in the morning to cook porridge, and then heated the kang in several rooms. She combed her hair, washed up, and ate before going to school. While she was going out to school, everyone in the family was still sleeping in on the kang.

Qian Meijuan was so angry with her family, but she could do nothing about it, so she went out to school angrily.

When Shen Nan came to the Qian family's door and banged on the door and pots again, the lazy family was awakened. When they heard Shen Nan's voice, although everyone had put on their clothes, they stayed in the house and dared not say a word.

Shen Nan made quite a noise. Plus, it was winter and everyone had no work in the fields, so they loved visiting each other and joining in the fun. As a result, many villagers soon gathered in front of the Qian family's house to watch the fun.

While knocking on the big iron basin, Shen Nan listed all the things the Qian family had done, from how they spent the dirty money that the second son and his wife made from human trafficking, to how they worshipped the second daughter-in-law who had a body as big as a gas barrel like a sacrifice, to how they disliked the third son Qian Jingui's son and forced him and his wife to leave the house, to how they abused Qian Xiaoshu who had disappeared not long ago.

Finally, she started talking about the romantic affairs of the Qian family men. The villagers loved to hear this kind of gossip. Shen Nan kept talking about all kinds of gossip about the Qian family, occasionally mixing in some dirty scolding.

The news spread from one village to ten, and from ten to a hundred, more and more villagers gathered around the Qian family to watch the fun. Some even called people from nearby villages to watch the fun.

My goodness, the Qian family was surrounded in an instant. Not to mention that the Qian family couldn't open the back door to escape, they didn't even have the chance to climb over the wall to escape.

Everyone listened to the gossip just for fun, but when it came to the second son of the Qian family and his wife, the two extremely evil human traffickers, everyone was filled with righteous indignation, and their anger was directly transferred to the Qian family in the yard. They wished they could drag the whole family out and parade them through the streets immediately.

The most infuriating and sad thing is the disappearance of Shen Nan's son. In the past, when Shen Nan was crazy, he went to the Qian family to ask for his son. Some people thought that Shen Nan was crazy and his thinking was disordered.

Now, the story of Qian Laoer and his wife has been exposed, and those who once did not believe Shen Nan’s crazy talk now firmly believe it and are convinced that the child was abducted by Qian Laoer and his wife.

Everyone started to curse the family and some villagers were so angry that they picked up clods of dirt or went home to get garbage and threw them into the Qian family's yard.

Some villagers also brought sewage and poured it into Lao Qian's yard along the wall.

Although the Qian family members were all hiding in their homes, one could already imagine how dirty and miserable the large courtyard that the Qian family had built and was proud of had become.

Shen Nan calculated the time and left only when the primary school was about to finish school. The villagers also dispersed and went home to cook.

After venting her anger in front of Qian's house, she felt better. When she went to pick up her child from school, she didn't show any sign of having gone crazy just now.

Most of the children in the village primary school walk to and from school by themselves, and Shen Nan is one of the few who picks up and drops off children. She is afraid that her daughter will encounter an accident like her son, so she dare not be careless at all.

After school, many children went home in groups of three or five. Qian Meijuan was also surrounded by several female classmates, but they were not her friends, but the group that specifically bullied her.

On the way home, the girls started to insult Qian Meijuan again. Many children in the village have no sense of civilized language, and their elders like to swear, so they can swear at her.

Some called her a vixen because she was pretty and said she would seduce men when she grew up. Some called her family of human traffickers shameless. Some classmates even asked Qian Meijuan for money because her family was well-off.

It is winter now, and most people are wearing cotton-padded clothes made by their parents, with a half-worn and rustic coat on the outside.

Qian Meijuan, on the other hand, wore clean, fashionable and beautiful clothes, which were left over from her aunt Qian Jinling's twin daughters.

The two girls were the same age as Qian Meijuan. Because they had good nutrition and were taller, the remaining clothes they wore were just enough for Qian Meijuan.

Qian Jinling used to send these old clothes home a lot. Although they were leftovers, they were much better than the clothes of rural children.

Classmates were jealous that Qian Meijuan could wear such nice clothes. They all said that her family bought those with the money from trafficking children. Several girls started to throw dirt on Qian Meijuan and even took out a folding knife to cut through the clothes, revealing the stuffing inside.

Seeing Qian Meijuan become so embarrassed, the girls walked away contentedly.

Originally, Shen Nan could take Qian Baoge home quickly after school. However, after she accidentally discovered that Qian Meijuan was bullied, she wanted to see the power of those kids again.

Call her a gossip or be cruel, but she felt very happy when she saw the Qian family's children getting punished for the immoral things done by their adults.

She and her daughter stood not far away and watched quietly. Qian Baoge was just in the first grade and was young, so she had not yet formed a clear concept of right and wrong, good and evil.

Seeing someone bullying Qian Meijuan, she couldn't bear it and said to Shen Nan: "Mom, let's go help Sister Meijuan, okay? Those older sisters who bullied her are so mean..."

Shen Nan did not blame his daughter for saying this, but squatted down and said to Qian Baoge: "Little Pigeon, some people are not worthy of our pity.

Your brother was taken away and sold by her family, and we don't know where he is suffering now. She is suffering a little now, but at least she can still live with her family.

Compared to what your brother has suffered, her suffering is nothing. Little pigeon, remember, this is the retribution for doing bad things..."

Qian Baoge nodded, not quite understanding. Although she didn't know whether it was right to stand by and watch the incident, when she mentioned her beloved brother, she suddenly didn't think Qian Meijuan was pitiful at all.

If they weren’t Qian Meijuan’s family, why would her father not come home for so many years and always be outside looking for her brother?
