Tie Zhu drove a four-wheeled vehicle and asked for directions, "Uncle Lu, which way are you going?"
Lu Shengmin replied, "Go to the county town first, and I will show you the way when we get there."
From Jinshui Village to the county seat, it takes less than 20 minutes to drive a four-wheel vehicle.
After arriving at the county seat, drive south for another half hour and arrive at Jinping Town.
Zhao Junqiang, a barber shop apprentice, lives in Liujiawan Village, not far from the town.
After entering the village, I looked around and saw that the village was developing very well. Many houses had high-walled blue-tiled houses, and some had small second floors.
Arriving at the entrance of an alley, Lu Shengmin said to Tie Zhu, "Tie Zhu, stop the car, this is it."
Tie Zhu's four-wheeler stopped at the entrance of the alley.
The whole family jumped out of the carriage. Lu Shengmin told Tie Zhu, "Tie Zhu, wait here while we go in to find someone."
Tie Zhu was an outsider. Firstly, he was afraid that Tie Zhu would see the young man's situation and talk more when he returned to the village. In addition, he was also worried about the four-wheeler parked on the roadside.
Tie Zhu sat in the driver's seat and nodded, "Uncle, go ahead, I'll wait for you here."
Xu Zheng and Jiang Ping followed Lu Shengmin and Xu Yuqin and entered from the alley.
The doors of the houses in the alley are very grand, either large and spacious iron doors, or painted wooden doors, which all look like they belong to high-rise courtyards.
Walking straight in, Lu Shengmin and Xu Yuqin stopped in front of a dilapidated small wooden door.
Compared with the previous houses, this small wooden door is almost invisible.
This is comparable to Mr. Lu’s shabby yard.
Xu Zheng and Jiang Ping looked at each other with solemn expressions.
There really is no harm without comparison.
The small broken wooden door was tightly closed. Xu Yuqin stepped forward and pushed it, but it didn't open. It was bolted from the inside.
If the door was not bolted from the inside, they would not be sure whether Lu Xiaoyue was in the house or not. The fact that the door was bolted quite a bit meant that there was no three hundred taels of silver in this place.
"Lu Xiaoyue, you damn girl, come out here."
Xu Yuqin kicked the broken wooden door.
Xu Yuqin was very strong and kicked the broken wooden door, which was about to collapse.
The courtyard was quiet, no one answered.
Xu Zheng couldn't believe that Lu Xiaoyue was so blind. He confirmed with a dark face, "Uncle, Mom, are you sure this is the place?"
Xu Yuqin nodded, "Of course I'm sure, this is the poorest family in this alley that I visited last time."
After receiving Xu Yuqin's affirmative answer, Xu Zheng stepped forward with a livid face and kicked the broken wooden door.
The broken wooden door could not bear the heavy blow and almost fell down.
The people inside were probably really afraid that the broken door would be broken into their hands today, so they said in an impatient tone, "Who is it? Come on, come on, what door are you kicking in during the Chinese New Year?"
Soon, the thick wooden stick that locked the door was removed, and the door panel was opened. A middle-aged woman who looked about fifty years old looked at them with a frown on her face and said in a bad tone, "What are you doing?"
"Let's come find my daughter and get her out quickly." Xu Yuqin had already squeezed into the yard, and Lu Shengmin and the others followed in with a sullen face.
Zhao Junqiang's mother's eyes flashed slightly, and she angrily stopped in front of Xu Yuqin, preventing her from going any further, "Didn't your daughter be taken away by you?"
"Don't pretend to be stupid with me. She ran away today when we weren't paying attention. Where else could she go except your house."
The dead girl was so obsessed with that street kid that she cried and begged her at home to allow them to be together. She could guarantee that Lu Xiaoyue would be here.
Zhao Junqiang's mother blocked their way and denied in a cold voice, "It's none of our business if he runs away. He has been taken away by you. Don't come to my house and mess around."
Xu Zheng rushed out fiercely and threatened Zhao Junqiang's mother, "Hurry up and hand him over, or we will call the police."
Zhao Junqiang's mother's eyes moved slightly with a guilty conscience, but her attitude remained tough, "Why are you people like this? I told you that Lu Xiaoyue never came to my house."
Xu Zheng couldn't help but rushed into the house to look for someone. Jiang Ping also went to another room.
There are only two rooms in this courtyard, the north room and the east room, and there is no one in them.
When Zhao Junqiang saw them running into the house looking for someone, she was not in a hurry. When they came out disappointed, she snorted, "Didn't you find them?? I told you that Lu Xiaoyue didn't come to my house at all."
Lu Shengmin asked in a deep voice, "Where is your son?"
Zhao Junqiang's mother replied, "He went to visit relatives."
Looking at this woman, she looked confident, as if she was really not at home.
Xu Zheng asked Lu Shengmin in a low voice,
"Uncle, will that damn girl go somewhere else?"
Lu Shengmin shook his head, "Impossible, where else can she go?"
"Will he go to my uncle's house?" Xu Zheng guessed.
"This, probably not."
If her niece Xu Qiaozhen came back from work, Lu Xiaoyue might go to her uncle's house, but this year Xu Qiaozhen did not go home during the New Year.
Xu Yuqin thought for a moment and still felt that Lu Xiaoyue was here.
Even if he is not here, he is still hidden by this woman.
Because after she brought Lu Xiaoyue home, she secretly begged her several times, hoping that she would agree to the marriage.
He said that he fell in love with Zhao Junqiang at first sight and would not marry her unless she was there.
But Xu Yuqin couldn't listen at all. That damn girl had fallen in love with Qin Feng at first sight before.
She is just three minutes hot. She has never seen the world. As long as he is a man, he can fall in love at first sight.
Xu Yuqin started to yell heartbreakingly,
"Xiaoyue, damn girl, are you in this house? Say something, you can't be so shameless and live in a man's house without a name or status. What will others say about you like this?"
"As long as you come back with us, we will agree to your marriage to Zhao Junqiang."
Xu Yuqin's own shouting was not enough, so she pulled Jiang Ping and asked her to shout together.
Men want to save face and can't make such a fool of themselves, but women can.
Shout as loudly as you want.
Then, she pulled Jiang Ping and sat down directly on the steps, "We'll wait here. If you don't believe her, she won't come out."
When Zhao Junqiang's mother saw them acting like naughty gangsters, she frowned and chased them away, "What are you doing during the Chinese New Year? You even looked for them in the house, and they are not at my house at all. Get out of here quickly."
"If you don't hand him over today, we won't leave. We will celebrate the New Year at your house."
Xu Yuqin's voice was really loud, which alarmed the neighbors, who all stood by the broken wooden door to watch the excitement.
When Xu Yuqin saw someone poking around the broken wooden door, she began to mobilize the power of the people in an attempt to wage a public opinion war.
This is the way she used to fight in her village.
"Everyone, tell us, my daughter was hidden by them. This is human trafficking and it is illegal."
"Has my daughter been sold by human traffickers? Or has her eyes and heart been gouged out?"
"Lu Xiaoyue, you damn girl, come out here. Your father, me, your brother and your sister-in-law are here to find you. You can't be so ignorant. We won't harm you. You follow someone like this without any name or status."
, people will not treat you as a human being in the future. If you want to get married, you must marry the matchmaker."
Xu Yuqin said something harsh and soft, crying and shouting in the yard.
Lu Shengmin frowned when he saw Xu Yuqin's playful attitude.
Still the same old thing.
She had used this method countless times in her village, and it worked sometimes.
However, if you are unfamiliar with the place here, the neighbors will just watch the fun and no one will judge you.
Not embarrassing enough.
Lu Shengmin whispered to Xu Zheng and asked him to find the village director to seek justice for them.
