Chapter 74: This is Ultimate Retribution

Chen Yiheng, who was helping with the fish vine, immediately ran over, his little face full of worry.

“Mom, are you okay?” he asked.

Hearing her son’s words, Li Xinyue felt a wave of relief.

“Thank you, baby. Mom is not tired, don’t worry,” she reassured him.

Chen Yiheng looked at his mother, who was covered in sweat, and ran off again.

Soon, he returned with a bowl of cold tea. “Mom, drink this.”

This son of hers was such a sweetheart!

Li Xinyue took the bowl with both hands. “Thank you, son!”

“You’re welcome, Mom. When I grow up, I’ll help you dig herbs!”

“Okay, then grow up quickly.”

Chen Yiheng clenched his little fist. “Okay, I’ll eat more, and I’ll grow up soon!”

Having such a loving son made the exhaustion fade away.

After drinking the tea, Chen Mingchuan said he had something to do and would be back soon. Li Xinyue guessed he was going to investigate what had happened earlier.

“Okay, go ahead. I’ll look after the child.”

“Okay.”

After fetching some hot water from her uncle’s house, Li Xinyue returned to the Chen family, took a bath, and went to pick up Chen Yiheng.

“Baby, Mom wants to take a nap. Do you want to sleep?”

“Yes!”

Chen Yiheng wanted to be with his mother, so he readily agreed.

The mother and son lay down on the bed, but before they could close their eyes, they heard Ye Juan’s panicked voice rushing in from outside.

“Mom, Mom, are you home?”

Mrs. Chen, whose hand was still injured, was naturally at home. She was lazy by nature.

“What’s the matter, yelling so loud? What happened?”

Ye Juan was extremely anxious. She had been chatting with someone and had forgotten about her son. When she finally remembered, the child was gone.

Remembering Zhang Caiyun’s instructions, she suddenly panicked.

“Mom, have you seen Fuyou?”

Mrs. Chen raised her eyes. “You brought the child, and you ask me?”

Ye Juan became even more anxious. “Mom, I was talking to someone, and he disappeared.”

What?

Now even Mrs. Chen panicked!

“Did Caiyun come back today?”

Ye Juan shook her head frantically. “I don’t know. I sent her a letter the day before yesterday, and she hasn’t replied.”

This made Mrs. Chen even more alarmed!

“Quickly, go search every house!”

Soon, everyone in the three teams knew that the fourth son of the Chen family had disappeared…

Immediately, everyone started gossiping.

“How could he disappear? Who would take a child?”

“Yeah, who doesn’t have a few kids? Maybe he got tired playing somewhere and fell asleep in a corner.”

“That’s very possible. No one would steal a child these days.”

Right?

The government encouraged everyone to have children. If you wanted a child, just have one yourself!

It’s not like you can’t give birth!

Even if you couldn’t have children yourself, your siblings would have plenty. Just adopt one from them, wouldn’t it?

And it would be blood-related!

Why would anyone buy a child?

Children were registered. If someone’s household register suddenly had an extra child, the government would arrest them!

Villagers who had never lived in the mountains didn’t understand the hardships of mountain people. They couldn’t imagine that anyone would buy a child.

These days, buying a wife did happen sometimes, because poor families couldn’t find wives.

But buying a child was rarely heard of.

The villagers weren’t alarmed, thinking the child must have fallen asleep somewhere.

Only Ye Juan and Mrs. Chen were truly panicked, because they had a guilty conscience.

“How could the child suddenly disappear? Who would want him? What are you all making a fuss about?”

Old Man  Chenwas working in the fields. He had come back before noon, which meant he would lose work points. He was in a bad mood.

Mrs. Chen was close to tears. “Old man, something terrible has happened! It’s really terrible!”

“What happened? Tell me!”

Old Man  Chen was completely confused by his wife.

“It’s like this, today originally…”

“Bang!” A slap landed on Mrs. Chen’s face before she could finish her sentence.

Old Man Chen’s face was ashen: “You damn thing, this is against the law!”

“You dare do such a thing, are you trying to die?”

“Now good, your grandson has been kidnapped, you go die!”

“Wuwuwu… Wuwuwu…”

Mrs. Chen was also filled with regret. She cried: “How could I have known this would happen? I just wanted, I just wanted…”

“Shut up! If you don’t want to go to jail, shut your mouth!”

These women dared to do such a thing, they were really asking for it!

Old Man Chen was both angry and anxious. He growled at Mrs. Chen and then ran into Old Four Chen’s room.

“What are you all standing here for? Hurry up and find Zhang Caiyun!”

At this moment, Chen Mingguo and Ye Juan were helpless, and they couldn’t let anyone know that the child had been kidnapped, because it was a crime!

At Old Man Chen’s urging, Chen Mingguo turned and ran out: “Juanzi, you hurry and find your second brother, quickly! I’ll go find Caiyun!”

Li Xinyue naturally knew that Chen Fuyou was missing.

She just looked indifferent.

Moreover, she guessed that the people who kidnapped someone were probably after her son, not Chen Fuyou!

She just didn’t know why they had kidnapped the wrong person!

Also, today’s kidnapping and attack were probably aimed at her!

Her fists clenched tighter: Ye Juan, Zhang Caiyun, if I don’t make you pay, I won’t be Li!

God bless, don’t let them find the child, let them never find him!

Chen Yiheng was young, but he wasn’t completely clueless.

When the sounds outside faded, he asked, “Mom, is my little brother missing?”

Li Xinyue didn’t plan to hide it from him: “Yeah, he probably ran around, didn’t stay close to the adults, and got kidnapped by bad people.”

“He might never see his parents again.”

Ah?

Chen Yiheng was terrified: “Mom, I won’t run around, I don’t want to be kidnapped by bad people!”

Li Xinyue hugged her son tightly, her eyes filled with coldness: “Good, as long as you don’t go with strangers, don’t eat things from strangers, you won’t be.”

“I won’t!”

Chen Yiheng clenched his small fists tightly… What if he never saw his mom again?

No, he didn’t want to be separated from his mom!

From childhood to adulthood, the only person who protected him was his mom, even though she was weak.

Now, his mom was no longer weak, she loved him even more, he would never leave his mom!

Li Xinyue didn’t know that her teaching that day was deeply imprinted in Chen Yiheng’s heart, and would have a profound impact on his life.

She was in a bad mood and couldn’t sleep.

Li Xinyue tossed and turned in bed, there were no sounds outside, they must have all gone to look for the child.

At this moment, Sanhu’s voice came from outside the window: “Third sister-in-law, it’s time for lunch.”

Li Xinyue got out of bed: “Okay, I’ll be right there.”

“Yier, let’s go eat.”

The mother and son arrived at their uncle’s house, and Wang Cuimiao quickly stepped forward.

She lowered her voice and spoke to her: “Xinyue, was Fuyou kidnapped?”

Li Xinyue nodded coldly: “Aunt, my dream was a warning!”

“If it hadn’t been for the Dream God reminding me, it would have been Yier who was kidnapped today!”

“Do you know? The people who kidnapped the child today were hired specifically to kidnap Yier.”

“Fortunately, I’m the daughter of Heaven, the Dream God gave me a dream warning in advance, I was extra cautious, so they kidnapped the wrong person.”
