In the book, I changed the villain couple to be a daughter slave

Chapter 98: Do you really think that our family is a wealthy one? We pick up any child we want.

Before Wen Yan had time to speak, Li Mian's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Mom...can you come pick me up?"

The moment she heard her daughter's voice, Wen Yan's emotions that had been pent up for several days completely collapsed. She clutched the microphone tightly, choking up so much that she could hardly speak.

"Mom...Mom will pick you up right now..."

"Mianmian, Mianmian, where are you?"

When Li Mian heard Wen Yan crying on the phone, his eyes suddenly became hot and tears fell.

She bit her lip and cried aggrievedly: "I don't know where this is? A grandfather rescued me in the mountains."

Wen Yan was crying so hard that she couldn't speak. Her father had no choice but to take the phone from her and said softly, "Mianmian, this is grandpa. Give the phone to that grandpa. Grandpa will ask him for the address. We will come to pick you up soon, okay?"

"Okay~" Li Mian responded and returned the phone to the old man.

Afterwards, the uncle and Wen's father communicated with each other, and when the Wen family learned that Li Mian was actually in a city more than 100 kilometers away from Dijing, they were immediately shocked.

But now was not the time to worry about this. Wen Yan immediately contacted the search and rescue team, and then contacted Li Xiao through their walkie-talkie.

Upon learning that Li Mian was fine and had even called home, Li Xiao's tense mood of the past few days suddenly relaxed.

He had been following the search and rescue team over mountains and across rivers for two days, and now he was completely exhausted.

"Notify everyone that the child has been found. There's no need to look for him any further." Li Xiao paused for a few minutes before speaking to the captain of the search and rescue team.

"Are you sure? If you are, we'll call it a day."

Li Xiao: "Yes, the family has received a call from the child."

The leader of the search and rescue team was a little surprised and couldn't help asking, "So she left the forest area by herself? Are you sure your daughter is only five years old?"

Li Xiao didn't expect this either.

In such a big forest, not to mention a five-year-old child, even an adult could easily get lost.

Moreover, sudden dangers may occur at any time in the mountains.

He didn't even dare to think about it.

"I don't know the specifics, I can only make sure the child is fine. I'm going to go back and pick her up."

Afterwards, Li Xiao quickly evacuated with the search and rescue team.

When he got home, it was already midnight.

At this moment, the Li family's house was brightly lit, and Wen Boling also rushed back exhausted.

"Where is the child?"

As soon as he entered the house, Li Xiao couldn't wait to ask.

"In Los Angeles, the person who saved Mianmian just sent us his address." Father Wen said.

"Then there's no need to wait, let's go pick up the child now." Li Xiao didn't even think about changing his clothes, and was about to turn around and go out.

Qi Yue, who had been accompanying Wen Yan, said quickly: "Since you already know that Mian Mian is not in danger for the time being, you should rest properly for a night before going. You haven't had a good rest these past two days."

"Ayan hasn't eaten or slept for two days. You and President Wen have been running around in the mountains for so long. Your bodies won't be able to take it."

Jiang Yufeng did not interrupt, but after hearing that Li Mian was rescued, he finally felt relieved.

However, for Wen Yan and Li Xiao, there is nothing more important than picking up the children at the moment.

"You can also rest in the car on the way, there is no conflict."

Mother Wen said, "Then change your clothes. This time you are not only going to pick up the child, but also to thank the person who saved Mianmian."

Hearing this, Li Xiao lowered his head to look at himself.

His trouser legs and shoes were covered in mud, and his clothes were also very dirty.

"Then wait a few minutes for me."

Li Xiao obediently took a shower, changed his clothes, and then went downstairs.

Except for Qi Yue and Jiang Yufeng, the Wen family and the Li family all set off for Luocheng.

After all the cars drove away, Qi Yue finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Finally found it, luckily everything is fine."

Jiang Yufeng stood quietly beside her, but in his heart he was thinking about how to punish Li Xun, the culprit.

The next morning.

After talking to his family on the phone, Li Mian was filled with joy.

She sat on a bamboo stool, dangling her feet by the fire, watching an old couple weaving bamboo baskets.

The early mornings in the mountains are exceptionally cold, so the old couple lit a fire and boiled some hot water as soon as they got up.

After washing herself clean, Li Mian looked so delicate and as white as porcelain, just like a work of art in the shopkeeper's collection.

The most important thing is that she is so well-behaved, she doesn't make any noise, and she is not picky about food. She eats whatever they eat.

There is no need to worry about her meals, just serve her a bowl and she will eat it obediently.

The old couple looked at her from time to time, and they were very happy.

"This girl must be the child of a wealthy family in the city, she is raised so well. Unlike our granddaughter, who was raised roughly." The old woman sighed.

The old man smiled, and continued weaving the bamboo basket: "City people have their own way of raising children, and we mountain people have our own way."

"That's right, our granddaughter is fine too."

After the old woman finished speaking, she threw a cooked potato out of the fire, pinched the potato with her wrinkled and calloused hands, brushed off the ashes, then peeled it before handing it to Li Mian.

"Baby, do you want to eat this?"

Li Mian took it with a smile, and fiddled with it in his left and right hands as it was a little hot: "Eat."

The potatoes grown in the village are always more flavorful than those bought in the city. Li Mian took a bite of the fragrant potato and immediately squinted his eyes in satisfaction.

The soft, sticky and powdery texture is her favorite.

However, just when he had eaten half of the potato, he heard a noise outside the yard, and the big yellow dog tied to the door kept barking.

Li Mian originally thought that his father and the others had come to pick him up, but after calculating the time, it didn’t seem that fast.

"I'll go see who it is." The old man put down the half-woven bamboo basket in his hands, stood up and walked out.

Soon, the sound of several people talking was heard outside.

Li Mian held the half-eaten potato in his hand and stretched his head to look outside curiously.

Then I saw a middle-aged couple and a teenage girl walk in.

They were carrying luggage in their hands, and the smiles on their faces froze when they saw Li Mian.

"Dad, whose child is this?" the middle-aged woman asked with a hint of displeasure in her tone.

The old man smiled and took the things from his daughter-in-law, saying, "I picked up this child when I was herding cattle in the mountains. Her family will be here soon to pick her up."

When the daughter-in-law heard this, her expression immediately became unhappy.

She put the things in her hand on the ground and said in a sarcastic tone: "You really think we are a wealthy family and we can bring any child home."

The smile on the old man's face was awkward for a moment, and his tone became lower: "She will only stay for two days. Her family is already on the way."

"Besides, a child can't eat that much."

But just as she finished her words, the daughter-in-law saw the hospital receipt and some medicines thrown on the table.

She quickly picked it up and immediately exploded: "What? You took her to the hospital? It cost 700 yuan!?"
