Feng Suqing was mentally unstable, and her son was taken away by Lin Shuyue, and she was still a little dazed.
Her son's name is Lu Chao, nicknamed Chaochao. He had met Lin Shuyue and had no aversion to her. When he was in her arms, he lay there obediently and did not move.
He is almost three years old, yet he feels very light when she hold him in her arms, probably only a dozen pounds, with not much flesh. When she touch him, she feel that his whole body is just bones.
"Sister Su Qing, have you eaten?" Lin Shuyue asked her enthusiastically.
It was just past four o'clock and not yet time for dinner, so Feng Suqing shook her head.
Lin Shuyue held Chaochao in one hand and pulled her with the other: "That's perfect, I haven't eaten either, and I'm worried about being lonely eating alone. Come on, come on, Sister Suqing, I'll treat you to some sweet soup. Chaochao, do you like sweet soup?"
"I like it." Chaochao's voice was childish. He hugged Lin Shuyue's neck and tried not to move, for fear of adding burden to Lin Shuyue.
Feng Suqing was very thin and was easily pulled away by Lin Shuyue.
There are dessert shops everywhere, including in Pingsha Village, which is just a few steps away from her street.
As soon as Lin Shuyue entered the room, she looked at the menu on the table and ordered four or five items.
It was Chaochao's first time to come to this kind of dessert shop. He sat on the chair and looked around. Feng Suqing, who was about to leave, couldn't say the words on her lips when she saw the curious expression on his face.
It was her inability to give birth to her Chaochao to suffer in this world. He has never even had sugar water since he was a child. He has no chance to grow up. She heard that the medicine will hurt a lot after taking it. Before taking it, just think of it as a sweet treat.
Feng Suqing was full of bitterness, and when she looked at Lin Shuyue, she apologized. Since they moved to Pingsha Village, the Lin Shuyue family across the street had been very kind to them. If they met Chaochao on the road, they would always give Chaochao some delicious food.
She often went to Lin Shuyue's house to fetch water. She had no special skills and could only watch them silently in her heart. Good people will have a peaceful and prosperous life.
Lin Shuyue was very sensitive to people's gazes, and Feng Suqing's grateful yet bitter expression made her very confused.
Originally, Lin Shuyue thought that Feng Suqing's good and evil value suddenly increased from 5% to 60%, probably because the Lu family treated her badly, so she rebelled and wanted to send the entire Lu family away.
But after discovering the black prismatic sun, combined with the task assigned to her by the good and evil classification system, it was obviously not that simple.
The three bowls of sweet soup grass jelly, purple sweet potato and taro balls, and double skin milk she ordered came first. Lin Shuyue distributed them at random and put the double skin milk in front of Chaochao.
Chaochao held the spoon himself and ate with great relish.
Lin Shuyue also started chatting with Feng Suqing: "Sister Suqing, where are you from?"
Feng Suqing ate the sweet and soft purple sweet potato and taro and replied, "I'm from Chaotou. Chaochao's father is from here. He lives behind Wangsan Village 3."
Lin Shuyue thought about it and realized that Wangsan Village was already a very remote rural village. Behind Wangsan Village, it was even more remote.
"I know that place." Lin Shuyue said, "Sister Su Qing, I heard from my mother that Ah Chao's father is much older than you. How did you two get along?"
Feng Suqing didn't expect Lin Shuyue to ask about this, but it was not something she couldn't tell. She said, "When I was sixteen, I went to work at a construction site in Pengcheng with my uncle and brother from the same village. Chaochao's father also worked at our construction site."
"I worked on the construction site dealing with cement, and Chaochao's father was a migrant worker. We worked together on the construction site for a long time. So we got together." Feng Suqing didn't care that Lu Chao's father was so much older than her, nor did she care that Lu Chao's father had two wives before he married her.
Anyway, they didn't have any children. What she cared about was the maturity, stability, and hard work shown by Lu Chao's father.
During the time when she first got together with Lu Chao's father, they were indeed happy and sweet, and this happiness and sweetness reached its peak after she gave birth to Chaochao.
The hard days began after Chaochao turned two years old.
Before moving to Pingsha Village and becoming neighbors with Lin Shuyue's family, Feng Suqing had moved to no less than ten places. Either they couldn't pay the rent and were driven away by the landlord, or Lu Chao's father wanted to move to a new place, so they had to move with him.
Before yesterday, Feng Suqing was mostly concerned about when to save enough money and what kind of kindergarten to send Chaochao to.
But now, all these thoughts were gone. Her Chaochao was destined to have no future.
Lin Shuyue nodded: "That's good. My mother used to work on the construction site. My sister and I were still young when my father divorced her. My brother was given away by my father without telling my mother. He lied to my mother that he was abducted by human traffickers."
"In order to find my brother, my mother sold everything she could sell in her hometown and moved us here. She raised me and my sister by working on construction sites. She worked for half a year, and for the remaining six months, she traveled around the country with the search team."
Feng Suqing didn't know when she stopped eating and listened to Lin Shuyue carefully.
She had never thought about divorce. Her hometown was in a relatively conservative mountain village in Chaotou. Whether in her family or her grandmother's family, there had never been a divorced woman in thousands of years.
Her female elders had always told her that women should be chaste and obedient, and that they should regard their husbands as their heaven. Her female elders had always told her that a woman's life was a struggle.
From a daughter-in-law to a mother-in-law, from an ignorant and naive girl to a shrewd-faced woman who only cares about the kitchen stove.
When the children grew up, got married, the mother-in-law passed away, the husband settled down, and realized the importance of family, they finally made it through.
Feng Suqing never thought of divorce.
But it is undeniable that after hearing Lin Shuyue say that Lou Fengqin was divorced and the reason for the divorce was that Lin Jianxin found a woman outside and it was the man's fault.
She couldn't help but ask, "Ah Yue, hasn't anyone gossiped about your mother since her divorce?"
It is only 2004 now. If we go back more than ten years, it was the 1980s. In that era, divorce was definitely a fresh gossip that could shock the entire village.
"Yes, many people have said so. Many people have advised my mother that the man is just having fun outside, and he will come back when he had enough fun. Some people even suggested that my mother talk to my father and let the woman in the city be the wife and she'll be the mistress."
When Lin Shuyue talked about this past event, her expression was half-smile. It was hard to imagine that in the new China, where monogamy had long been practiced, there would still be such idiots.
"My mother didn't want to, and then they changed their attitude, saying that my mother didn't care about men, wasn't kind, wasn't generous, and that she deserved to lose the child. Every time my mother heard such words, she would fight with others. After moving to Pingsha Village, we would never go back unless we had important things to do."
"Sister Su Qing, other people have their mouths, they can say whatever they want, but your life is your own, whether you live a good life or not, whether you are comfortable or not, only you can feel it yourself."
"My mother always told me and my sister that being happy is the most important thing, and everything else is secondary."
No one had ever said such words to Feng Suqing, and Feng Suqing stood there in a daze.
The small buns, fried dumplings with leeks, water chestnut cakes, golden cakes, cold cucumbers and cold chicken feet that Lin Shuyue ordered came. Lin Shuyue didn't say much, but just picked up a piece of water chestnut cake for Chaochao.
The water chestnut cake is delicious, sweet and crispy, and he couldn't stop eating it.
After eating so many sweet foods, he felt relaxed after eating some sour and spicy cold cucumber and chicken feet.
Feng Suqing didn't bother to be polite with Lin Shuyue, and the two of them finished eating all the food on the table. During this time, Lin Shuyue kept saying that if she had any problems, she could go to the police, the Women's Federation, or someone she knew, and she should never take it upon herself.
Taking advantage of the time to go to the toilet, Lin Shuyue went to settle the bill. When Feng Suqing wiped Chaochao's hands and went to settle the bill, the waiter told her that Lin Shuyue had already paid the bill. She didn't say anything.
But after returning home, he gave Lin Shuyue all the bacon and sausages that she had pickled last year and kept at home but had been reluctant to eat. Lin Shuyue wanted to postpone it but couldn't.
Lin Shuyue looked at Feng Suqing who left quickly, her whole body tensed up. Feng Suqing brought so many things, it seemed like she didn't want to continue living, it was really distressing.
Bai Pingping came back from cram school on her bicycle and saw so many cured meats and sausages on the table in the living room. She was delighted and said, "Second sister, were these meats and sausages sent by the young wife next door?"
In the past, Feng Suqing would bring this meat after Bai Pingping and her friends had eaten what they had given Chaochao. The bacon and sausage she made tasted great, and it was said that her mother had learned it from the educated youth who had been sent to work in the countryside in their village. Every time Luo Zhengjun fried bacon with peppers or onions, Bai Pingping would eat an extra bowl of rice.
Lin Shuyue nodded and waved to Bai Pingping to come over: "Pingping, when I'm not at home, please help me keep an eye on the young wife across the street. If she does anything abnormal, call me."
When Lin Shuyue said this, Bai Pingping's eyes lit up. Who is her second sister? She is a famous reporter in the entire Pengcheng new media community! Many cases were discovered because of her carefulness. The media and the police reported that if it weren't for her second sister's informant Lin, those criminals would have been at large for who knows how long and how many people they would have murdered!
The more Bai Pingping gets along with her second sister, the more she admires her!
Since being found, Bai Pingping has forgotten all the experiences she had as Bai Xuanting for more than ten years. Now she doesn't like to use her brain like before. She used to rack her brains and think hard because she had no way out.
It's different now. She has many people behind her who can protect her from the wind and rain. She doesn't want to use her brain anymore. She will do her best to complete what her second sister asks her to do.
"I'll make sure the mission is accomplished."
Bai Pingping didn't go to school because she was pretty, her family ran a supermarket, and she was generous. Unbeknownst to Lin Shuyue and the others, Bai Pingping had become the king of the children in the entire Pingsha Village.
She only needed to give away some of the snacks, and the rest were the children who helped her keep an eye on them.
Lin Shuyue trusts Bai Pingping very much.
Her phone dinged, and Lin Shuyue opened it to see that it was a message from Hang Jiabai, saying that Hu Xinrui had woken up. Lin Shuyue remembered the very hot chip in the system backpack, and in order to avoid any more trouble, she had to go out and send it away.
Lin Shuyue said something to Bai Pingping, then drove away.
Knowing that Lin Shuyue would not be back for dinner that night, Bai Pingping watched Lin Shuyue go away.
Sometimes she always felt that her second sister was like a hero, ready to fight at any time.
Bai Pingping admits that she cannot be as sincere as Lin Shuyue, but she also wants to speak up for justice like Lin Shuyue.
She already had a very clear idea: she wanted to study law and become a lawyer.
Lin Shuyue was unaware of the influence she had on Bai Pingping, so she drove all the way to the military hospital.
Hu Xinrui was transferred here overnight last night.
Lin Shuyue went through several levels before finally getting Hu Xinrui's room number. When she found the ward, Hu Xinrui was awake and the nurse was already removing the indwelling needle in her hand.
In addition to her, there was another woman in the ward who was much older than Hu Xinrui. Seeing Lin Shuyue coming, she nodded to Lin Shuyue and went out.
Hu Xinrui had suffered multiple knife wounds on her body. Her entire body was wrapped in white bandages, including several bandages on her head. Only her face remained clean.
She smiled at Lin Shuyue, and Lin Shuyue walked over and sat on the accompanying stool beside the bed.
Hu Xinrui thanked Lin Shuyue. She knew that if Lin Shuyue hadn't appeared at that time, she would have died! Because she lost too much blood, several wounds were so deep that the bones were visible.
She was able to hold on until she was rescued by Lin Shuyue because of her perseverance and her breath.
When she woke up in the hospital this morning, Hu Xinrui felt like she might have gone to heaven if those annoying guys hadn't appeared by her bed.
Lin Shuyue shook her head and asked, "Ms. Hu Xinrui, do you still remember how I defeated you in the second fight when we met at Master Jiang's martial arts gym?"
Lin Shuyue's good and evil system can crack the contents of the chip given to her by Hu Xinrui, but Lin Shuyue chose to ignore it. She felt that the less she knew about some things, the better.
Hu Xinrui was slightly stunned, and then immediately knew Lin Shuyue's true intention. She said, "Nonsense, I beat you in the second game! I beat you so hard that your sponge pad was knocked out!"
The code was matched successfully. Lin Shuyue moved the bag behind her to the front. The moment she reached in, she transferred the chip in the space backpack to her hand and put it in Hu Xinrui's hand.
After getting the chip, Hu Xinrui held it tightly.
The two of them pretended nothing had happened and said something, then Lin Shuyue said goodbye and left.
When Lin Shuyue left the military hospital, three fully armed vehicles came out of the hospital and then drove towards the military research institute.
Lin Shuyue went to the newspaper office. It was already dark, but there were still many people working overtime.
Huang Qiang was listless, Li Weisheng was typing on the keyboard loudly, and so was Li Mingfang from the art editing team opposite him.
Lin Shuyue sighed. This sour smell of love can really be smelled everywhere.
Lin Shuyue asked Huang Qiang: "Master, you didn't sleep when you got home this morning. Why do you look so listless?"
Huang Qiang slapped his lips and said, "I can't sleep at home. My father-in-law and mother-in-law came and accompanied the guests for the whole day."
"Then why don't you rest at home instead of working overtime?"
"My younger and older brothers-in-law arrived in the evening. If I stay at home, you can forget about seeing me in the next two or three days. I'm going to hide here for a while. I won't say anything to you. I'll just take a nap for half an hour and then go back." Huang Qiang estimated that when he went back in half an hour, his older and younger brothers-in-law would have almost finished having sex with each other, and he would just have to clean up the mess.
Lin Shuyue made an OK gesture, tidied up her desk, went to the administrative department to get a leave application, filled it out, and went to Wang Mingzheng's office.
Ever since the pimp Zhao Bing was arrested, there has been no appointment for the director of their news department. Now all matters of the news department are managed by the editor-in-chief Wang Mingzheng.
Wang Mingzheng was busy, and when he learned that Lin Shuyue's sister was getting married and she needed a week's vacation, Wang Mingzheng wrote his name on the leave application.
Although as a reporter, she had flexible working hours and could arrange them as she pleased, and Wang Mingzheng and his men would not interfere with her personal matters, but this was not the case for something as big as a wedding, not to mention that she had to go to Hunan Province.
After getting the leave note, Lin Shuyue had nothing to do at the newspaper office, so she said goodbye to Li Mingfang and Li Weisheng and left. Huang Qiang lay on his back in the office chair, snoring loudly.
Lin Shuyue returned home, and Bai Pingping said that Feng Suqing across the street had not made any unusual movements.
After having supper as usual, Lin Shuyue played games for an hour on the computer that crashed instantly from the system, and browsed around various forums and websites before going to bed.
Because Yang Ning and others randomly selected targets for self-help revenge in the forum, the Haijiao Forum became famous all over the country. Now the number of views has reached its peak.
Haijiao Forum also urgently apologized in the past few days and promised to strengthen the management of registered users and former employees from now on. It also introduced a series of forum management measures.
The original post was viewed by countless people, and even after so many days, it was still on the front page of the forum. The latest replies were also increasing everywhere.
Lin Shuyue knew that there would definitely be two factions in this post without clicking on it. Lin Shuyue was too lazy to read it, for fear that she would be so angry that she would have a cerebral hemorrhage due to the sensational remarks.
The next morning, Lin Shuyue had just gotten up when Feng Suqing came over. She had not slept the whole night and her face was pale. She was holding Chaochao and her whole body was shaking.
As soon as she saw Lin Shuyue, she knelt down in front of her and said, "Reporter Lin, can I leave Chaochao at your house? I beg you, I really have no other choice. If it's any later, he will die."
Lin Shuyue was shocked and helped her up from the ground: "Sister Su Qing, you get up first, what happened?"
Feng Suqing hugged Chaochao tightly and said, "Reporter Lin, have you ever heard of the Great Sutra Wheel Sect?"
Lin Shuyue's mind suddenly exploded, and she suddenly remembered what the tattoo on Feng Suqing's shoulder was.
The Great Sutra Wheel Sect is a cult that was introduced to China from Western countries in the 1980s. After more than 20 years of development, it has a large number of followers. Its members are not only involved in drug trafficking, smuggling, and human trafficking.
Moreover, the promotion process for members within the church is very demanding. Generally speaking, the selected candidates will spare no effort to complete the tasks assigned by the leaders.
Including killing fathers and mothers, killing wives and children.
