Chapter 175 Tears Behind Bars
Chapter 175 Tears Behind Bars
They did have an effect; once they stood at the door, Pan Xiaohua didn't even have a chance to reach the door.
Seeing that she had no chance to see Fu Leyi again, Pan Xiaohua could only sigh and leave.
Back upstairs, Huang Chun asked, "How did it go? What did she say?"
Pan Xiaohua shook her head and said, "I won't see my second sister-in-law anymore."
"Why? Doesn't she want to see you?"
"Yes, there were two bodyguards at the door, and they chased me away as soon as I got close."
Huang Chun clicked his tongue in amazement.
I think Fu Leyi went too far. It's wrong for them to switch children, but they didn't manage to do it.
We're all family, why make things so ugly?
Of course, I felt mostly envious.
Hiring a nanny or bodyguard was something Huang Chun, who grew up in the countryside and had little formal education, could only see on television.
After envy comes jealousy.
They're all daughters-in-law of the Pan family, so what makes her so special?
She just can't stand seeing her doing better than herself, especially by so much.
Huang Chun said, "Then shout outside, shout louder. They have money and a sense of shame. They're worried about making a big scene and losing face, so they'll definitely see you."
Pan Xiaohua looked at her with the same eyes that looked at a fool.
"Second Sister-in-law's family isn't just rich, they're powerful too. Do you think this is our village? In a fight, whoever shouts the loudest wins? You can cry, make a scene, threaten suicide, sit on the ground crying and cursing, and the villagers will take care of you, right?"
"Hmph, I'll make a scene, I'll embarrass them, you believe me? If I dare go, I'll be reunited with my mother and second brother very soon. If I go in too, leaving you alone in the hospital, do you expect Lanlan, who only has one arm, to take care of you?"
Huang Chun choked and shut his mouth.
She frowned for a moment, then patted the blanket and said, "What should we do?"
How to do?
Pan Xiaohua also wanted to know what to do.
She's such a young girl, at an age where she can't even make her own decisions, yet she has to worry about so many things.
"You rest first, I'll go buy you some food and baby formula."
Before leaving, he asked Pan Lanlan to take good care of her mother and younger brother, and also asked her what she wanted to eat.
Pan Lanlan answered softly, "I want to drink soy milk."
"Okay, then I'll buy you fried dough sticks and soy milk."
The person in the next bed realized that the child wasn't mute.
"Hey, this child can talk?"
"Yes, she is. She's just a little shy."
"..." This is more than just a little shy.
They came over yesterday, and this is the first time they've heard her speak. She's so shy!
Pan Xiaohua bought breakfast and milk powder, almost spending all the money she had on her.
He only had two yuan left in his pocket, and he had to go to the police station to see his mother.
Otherwise, they would all starve to death.
After explaining things to Huang Chun, she went to the nearby police station.
It's not far, less than two miles, you can walk there.
After handing over her ID card and explaining her purpose, the other party took her to see Ms. Wang.
"mother."
After being locked up in shackles for a night, Wang became completely obedient.
His expression was blank, his eyes were cloudy, and his reactions were slow.
When she heard the first sound, she was still in a daze, unsure whether it was a hallucination or reality.
"mother."
Pan Xiaohua called out again before Wang Shi reacted.
She dragged her anklet towards the window before she saw the person outside.
"Little Flower, Little Flower, you've come."
Wang clung to the window, asking anxiously, "Xiaohua, can I go out now? Please take me out quickly, I can't stay here any longer, not even for a minute longer."
"No, Mother, I can't take you out for the time being. You're still trying to figure something out. But we're out of money. My sister-in-law and nephew both need money, so I've come to you to ask for some."
Wang: "..."
"Hmph, you come here just to get money from me?"
"Oh dear, what can I do? Mother, stop talking now, give me the money quickly, or we'll all starve to death."
"When will you let me out?"
Pan Xiaohua: "This isn't up to me. I just asked, and they said my second sister-in-law's parents are going to sue you for child abduction, and also separately sue you for attempted murder. Mother, how could you be so foolish? How could you let my little niece fall off the building?"
"Oh dear, I never intended to throw that girl downstairs. I was just trying to scare them."
"You're saying this now? You're here and you're saying it's just to scare them? Do you think they'll believe you?"
"What should we do then? What does 'attempted murder' mean?"
“It’s like you wanted to kill someone, but you didn’t succeed,” Pan Xiaohua explained.
Wang was illiterate and did not understand how serious this matter was.
Hearing that no one was killed... I thought that since they didn't succeed, it probably wasn't too serious.
Have you gone to see your second brother yet?
"Not yet, I came to see you first, and then I'll go see my second brother."
"Alright, I'll stay for a few days if you want. You just need to get your second brother out of here. Only when he's out will he be able to find a way to rescue me."
Pan Xiaohua thought the same thing. If she were to save someone, how could she do it? She had no idea what to do.
Once my second brother leaves, I'll make him kneel down and apologize to his sister-in-law, and then we'll figure out a way to save my mother.
"Okay, then give me some money first."
"Where would I get any money? They emptied all my pockets when I came in."
"Huh?" Pan Xiaohua stumbled. They even accept money for this?
"Didn't you hide it in your pants? Did you take it too?"
"They took it. They said they could only return it to me after I leave."
The old lady didn't want to give the money and wanted Pan Xiaohua to figure it out herself.
But what can she do?
After some deliberation, Pan Xiaohua decided to try her luck.
She went home to get her documents, and then she came back.
“I am Wang Mei’s daughter. I’m here to collect her personal belongings.”
She submitted her ID card and household registration booklet along with the documents.
Wang valued these things highly. She couldn't leave them in her hometown, so she brought them with her.
After showing the items to the person, they said they could give the old lady her personal belongings, but only with her consent.
Pan Xiaohua had no choice but to go with her comrade to see Wang Shi again.
"Mom, someone said they gave me your personal belongings to take back, so I came to tell you."
"Huh? This...this won't do!"
Pan Xiaohua said, "Why not? If you don't give it to me, how am I supposed to get my second brother out? If my second brother can't get out, how are you supposed to get out? And my sister-in-law, your eldest grandson, they're all waiting at the hospital. What kind of time is this, and you're still wary of me? If you're going to act like this, then I'm not going to get involved in your affairs anymore. You and my second brother can just stay here and let my sister-in-law and her two children starve to death."
Wang felt a pang of heartache, but she understood that the situation was pressing, so she had no choice but to agree and let her daughter take her personal belongings away, and get her second brother out first.
Wang asked her, "How is your second brother?"
"What else? He's filled with regret, he's like a fool. Mother, you've really ruined my second brother's life."
“How did he get into such a mess? No matter what, he's Fu Leyi's man and the father of her child. What can they do to him? At most, they can scare him a little and lock him up for two days before letting him out.”
