Chapter 150: The Origin of the Girl
Liu Dawan was also puzzled.
Su Ran smiled, "That's the case, I went to the town two days ago, and I heard that the mayor of the town was going to be promoted because he participated in the arrest of human traffickers some time ago and made meritorious contributions in recovering all the children." Now is the special period for the mayor to be promoted, if it is because someone in our village abducts and sells children, hindering the promotion of others, what do you say the mayor will do? ”
The human trafficker incident also caused a sensation in the entire Linshan Town at that time, especially the villages near Linshan Town, and the people in Linshan Village knew that He Chi led people to arrest them.
By the time the two dozen men from the village arrived with the mayor, the traffickers had already been arrested, and the children had been rescued for a while.
And He Chi gave him the credit after negotiating with the mayor, and the mayor naturally wouldn't be stupid enough to say that it was all his credit, after all, there were still so many villagers who knew that they only said that they were generals passing by.
Everyone reacted, because of the trafficker incident, Linshan Village was also rewarded with one hundred taels of silver by the mayor.
Liu Dawan stood up suddenly, and said hurriedly: "No, the girl really didn't come from me." ”
"Then you say, how did she come here?" Lin Linong's face was serious, and he looked at Liu Dawan with suspicion in his eyes.
The girl raised her head and looked at Liu Dawan, "Uncle, I believe I didn't come from you." It's just that I want to know who the woman who gave me to you is? Is it my mother? ”
Liu Dawan was stunned, he didn't expect that when everyone, including his son, didn't believe him, the child who was ignored by him would believe him.
Although his wife kept telling the village elders that he had picked it up, it was only for the silver.
Liu Quanmei's face changed, and because Su Ran was in front of her, she had to show a flattering smile, "Girl, you were really picked up by your uncle, you don't know how pitiful you were discarded at that time, if it weren't for your uncle, you would have been taken away by wolves!" ”
The girl ignored her and just looked at Liu Dawan.
Several clan elders also began to speak, and one of the clan elders of the Lin clan said: "I heard that this child was white and tender when you brought it back, and it didn't look like it would be discarded. ”
Another clan elder also nodded, "That's right, doesn't this kid remember a woman." ”
Seeing Liu Dawan bow his head, the village chief said: "Liu Dawan, if you don't explain what happened clearly, you will have a reputation for this kidnapper, and you have to think about whether a few grandchildren can raise their heads in the future." ”
Liu Dawan looked at the girl with a complicated expression, "The rumor was passed on by you?" ”
"You blame her for this," Su Ran sighed, "It's all my fault!" Every time I saw her, her clothes were tattered and tattered than a beggar's, and she was thin...... I asked others to find out that the girl was not from your family, and then I didn't know who said that the girl didn't look like an abandoned child when she first came, and it was rumored to be like this. ”
After Su Ran finished speaking, he spread his hands, looking very helpless.
Liu Dawan's gaze moved from Su Ran to the girl, recalling the pink appearance of the child when he first came to their house, and then seeing the sallow and thin face of the girl now, how can he still have the appearance of the water spirit when he was a child.
And he remembered the scene when the woman gave him the child, and besides the child, there was silver, and ...... There seemed to be echoes in my mind what the woman said at that time, as much as a year, as short as half a year......
He happily carried the child in his arms, and returned home with more than a hundred taels of silver, and he was indeed very good to the child at first, even better than his grandson.
But...... Since when has she stopped looking at this child more, even though his wife, daughter-in-law and granddaughter beat and scolded her.
It seems that the woman did not come after a year, and slowly began to love the child less much, and the second year onwards, the wife always said that the woman would not come, and the daughters-in-law and granddaughters complained that they were partial to outsiders......
Liu Dawan sighed, raised his eyes and looked at the girl, "I don't know who you are about that woman, ten years ago, at that time, the family was very poor, I met the woman on the road dozens of miles away, there should have been someone chasing her, she couldn't help it, I met a stranger who entrusted you to me, and also gave a hundred taels of silver......
"Boss, what kind of silver, how can there be so much, you are old and confused!"
"Wow"
Even though Liu Quanmei interrupted Liu Dawan's words, everyone heard it, and she couldn't deny it.
Some people are envious, some people are jealous, and there is a lot of talk in the crowd.
Su Ran raised his eyebrows, he didn't expect this Liu Dawan to say it, but it seemed that he had woken up.
Liu Dawan continued: "The woman said that she would come to pick you up in a year or half a year...... Until now, I thought something might have happened to the woman. ”
As Liu Dawan finished speaking, everyone looked at Liu Dawan with complicated eyes, some disdain, some ridicule, and some ridicule......
The second uncle of the Liu clan pointed at Liu Dawan and said angrily: "One hundred taels of silver, you raise people like this?" Looking up at Liu Dawan's grandsons and granddaughters who had already walked out of the house, he stood up and knocked on a crutch, "You take other people's money and abuse people like this?" Kill you greedy and inhuman thing......"
Liu Guifa and Liu Gui were stunned for a moment, and they only now knew the origin of the girl.
Liu Guifa blocked the crutch knocked down for Liu Dawan, and his mood was also very complicated, he didn't expect his parents to hide it so tightly.
Liu Dawan looked at Liu Quanmei, who was sitting on the ground crying, "Go and take out the things." ”
Liu Quanmei didn't want to, but she had always listened to Liu Dawan's words, she was not stupid, she knew that things couldn't be kept, but she still struggled and said: "Obviously, you can't say it, where can you take back what you have given, our family has also raised her for ten years, and half of the silver has been used......"
After a while, Liu Quanmei came out with a small wooden box and baggage in her hand, still muttering in her mouth, and tears in her eyes.
Su Ran has seen a lot today, and a hundred taels of silver is a test of a couple's hearts and humanity.
"I said that your husband and wife have really lost their conscience, even if they don't come back, for the sake of one hundred taels, you shouldn't do what the child is."
A woman in the crowd walked out and looked at Liu Dawan and his wife with a condemning expression.
"Yes, a hundred taels!"
"I've never seen so much money in my life."
"This person can't do such an inhuman thing."
Liu Dawan opened the baggage, which contained a set of children's clothes and a gold lock, and more than fifty taels of silver in the box.
He pretended not to hear the discussions, his face trembled, and he handed the things to the girl.
"Some of the money has been used, and it's all here."
Liu Dawan glanced at Su Ran after speaking, he was not stupid, this young man was obviously supporting the girl.
