"I looked for her last time, but you didn't see her face. She relied on her mother being there. It made me sick just thinking about her. And that Zhang Caihe, both her and her mother are not good people."

"You have to be humble when you ask for help. You've lived this long, don't you even understand this principle?"

"But when I thought about asking her for help, I felt so angry that I wanted to kill her."

As the two were talking, the door slammed.

Zhao Mei came in carrying a plastic bag.

"Dad, Mom, you're all here."

Feng Zhuanxia quickly turned her back and wiped her eyes vigorously, forcing a smile and saying, "Xiaomei, why are you here? Is He He being good lately?"

Zhao Mei chuckled: "Good boy, very good boy. Before, I kept staring at him and he became naughty. Now that I can't take care of him, he is obedient."

"That's good."

"Dad, Mom, I just got paid. Here's 100 yuan. Take it first."

Having said that, Zhao Mei handed over the money.

"No, no, how can we take your money? Take it quickly." Feng Zhuanxia declined.

"What's wrong with that? I'm your daughter, and it's normal for me to give you money. Before, it wasn't that I didn't want to give you money, but I didn't make any money myself and couldn't take care of you."

Feng Zhuanxia put the money away, sighed, and said, "Xiaomei, when will your brother come back?"

Zhao Mei pulled Feng Zhuanxia to sit on the edge of the kang, patted her shoulder soothingly, and said, "Mom, don't worry about your brother anymore. The police will definitely notify us if there is any situation. The most important thing for you and Dad now is to take good care of your health."

"But didn't you hear what they said? They said if he was fine, he would have been released long ago. They said your brother must have committed a serious crime and might be shot."

As she said this, Feng Zhuanxia couldn't help crying again.

"Oh, Mom, don't be like this. You believe the nonsense of a few illiterate people. If they were so powerful, they would have been employed by the government long ago. Why would they still need to stay in this mountain village and gossip?"

Feng Zhuanxia was comforted.

She nodded and said, "Mom will listen to you and never believe them again."

"That's right, just relax. Things like this can only wait."

Zhao Hong, who had been silent the whole time, finally spoke up: "How is your relationship with your sister-in-law's sister?"

"It's OK, what's wrong?"

"Ask her to help find out what's going on with your brother. It's almost the end of the year. What is it that requires them to investigate for so long? If they can't figure it out, then how are we going to survive without any income?"

"Yes, Xiaomei, go ask Youshuang. She knows a lot of people and should be able to do you a favor."

Zhao Mei was in a dilemma.

She was actually very grateful to Guan Youshuang for giving her this opportunity, and she herself was quite content with her current situation.

How could she talk about something like this?

This is a public security matter, and Youshuang definitely doesn't want to interfere.

To put it another way, even if Youshuang agreed, wouldn't she owe that person a favor?

What does she give back?

Seeing Zhao Mei hesitate, Feng Zhuanxia continued, "Even if she can't help, isn't her man in the Water Conservancy Bureau? They're both bureaus, so he must know someone in the Public Security Bureau."

"Dad, Mom, let's wait patiently for a while. The police will have news sooner or later."

Feng Zhuanxia's face darkened: "Why, you don't want to? He's your brother, not someone else."

"Mom, it's not that I don't want to, but Youshuang and the others can't do anything about this."

Feng Zhuanxia sneered, "How do you know they can't do anything if you don't ask? Your brother really loves you in vain."

Feng Zhuanxia stood up, took out the hundred yuan from her pocket, and said, "You can take the money. We are not worthy of it."

"Mom, what are you doing? This is...Okay, okay, I'll go ask for you guys."

"Okay, okay, remember, if she says she can't do it, remember to mention her man."

"I see."

After coming out of her mother's house, Zhao Mei looked back at the brick house.

Once upon a time, this brick house stood out among the adobe houses in the village.

But now, there is only deathly silence.

*

Zhao Mei originally planned to bite the bullet and ask Guan Youshuang, but Guan Youshuang had been in the county town during this period.

Feng Zhuanxia, ​​who had been waiting for several days without any result, could not wait any longer.

She decided to look for Guan Lei again.

That day, she was hunched over in the yard washing her hair. She hadn't been out for a long time, so her hair was extremely dirty.

I'm going to the county town tomorrow, so I have to take a shower.

At this time, the door rang.

Feng Zhuanxia raised her waist and turned around, then was stunned.

Guan Lei walked in with a big belly.

Seeing the woman she hated the most, Feng Zhuanxia wanted to tear her into pieces, but for the sake of her son, she held back and asked like a loving mother: "Leilei, you're back?"

Guan Lei nodded without saying anything and went straight back to her room.

Feng Zhuanxia didn't even bother to wash her hair. She quickly wiped her hair with a towel and followed him in.

"Leilei, have you found out about Zhao Yang? It's been so long, what's going on?"

"I've asked around and asked several people, but I haven't received a reply yet."

Feng Zhuanxia's heart sank: "So why did you come back this time?"

Guan Lei looked up at her and said calmly, "I'm tired. I came back to rest for a few days."

Seeing Guan Lei's attitude, Feng Zhuanxia cursed in her heart, but still with a smile on her face, she said: "Yes, you are in a heavy body now, you should rest more."

Guan Lei didn't say anything.

Feng Zhuanxia sighed and said, "Who the hell framed Zhao Yang and made you, a pregnant woman, work outside to earn money?"

Guan Lei still didn't say anything.

Feng Zhuanxia thought for a moment, and then tentatively said, "Leilei, about Zhao Yang's matter, why don't you ask your sister? Your sister knows a lot of people, and your brother-in-law works at the Water Conservancy Bureau. They will surely be able to help."

"The person has been arrested by the Public Security Bureau. What can my sister and brother-in-law do?"

Feng Zhuanxia choked and said, "It's already this late. We have to try it if there's any other way. You don't want your child to be born without a father, do you?"

Guan Lei thought for a moment, nodded and said, "I think you are right. Why don't I go find my sister?"

Feng Zhuanxia nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's right. Your sister only has you as her sister. She will definitely find a way to help you."

Feng Zhuanxia added: "Even if your sister can't help, your brother-in-law will definitely be able to help."

"Okay, then give me your household registration booklet and I'll try."

"Why do you need a household registration book?"

"Make copies of the documents. There are so many people with the same name. Without the household registration book, how can you prove Zhao Yang's identity? Or do you have Zhao Yang's ID card?"

Feng Zhuanxia shook her head: "No, he always carries his ID card with him."

"Then the household registration booklet. Oh, and the marriage certificate."

Feng Zhuanxia was stunned again: "You still need a marriage certificate?"
