Traveling through time and space to become a child, supporting the family by catching fish and shrim

Next to her, there was a young man sitting.

He looks like a decent human being, but his eyes are so cunning and unpleasant to look at.

Chen Xia was chatting and laughing with a young man when he suddenly felt someone staring at him. He turned around and his face turned pale.

Chen Lang chuckled, withdrew his gaze, insisted on paying the meal, and left Tianshangju.

When he was about to drive the ox cart away outside the store, Chen Xia ran out like the wind and opened his arms to block his way.

Chen Lang frowned and said unhappily, "What do you want to do?"

Chen Xia said in a trembling voice: "Chen Erlang, I'm warning you, don't talk nonsense when you return to the village, otherwise... otherwise..."

Chen Lang smiled contemptuously and said, "What else?"

"Chen Xia, have you forgotten that I always respond softly, not hard?"

Chen Xia's expression changed immediately. She walked over to Chen Lang, tugged at his shirt, and said in a delicate voice, just like when she was a child, "Brother, good brother, I just came out to play with my friends. I didn't do anything else."

Chen Lang raised his eyebrows: "Little girl, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say anything you want, and you can't shout at anyone you want."

"Who is your second brother?"

Chen Xia became anxious again and said, "You won't listen no matter how hard I try. So what do you want from me?"

Chen Lang said: "Little girl, what you want has nothing to do with me, and I am not the kind of person who likes to gossip about others behind their backs."

"But as a fellow villager, I'd like to kindly remind you to be more careful and not be deceived by other people's sweet talk."

After saying that, he waved the whip, and the cow slowly spread its four hooves and walked forward.

Chen Xia was stunned and muttered, "Cheating on her body?"

"Chen Lang, you bastard, how dare you say that to me... I'm not that stupid!"

Chen Lang ignored it and pretended not to hear it.

At this time, the young man who had been eating with Chen Xia also came out and asked curiously, "Who is that person?"

Chen Xia gritted his teeth and said, "What a bastard."

The young man said, "How about I find some people to teach him a lesson and help you vent your anger?"

Chen Xia almost agreed, but then she thought, if she really beat Chen Lang, he would definitely tell her mother what happened today, which would only cause more trouble.

"Forget it, let him go this time." Chen Xia said, "I have to go back."

The young man took Chen Xia's hand and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? I haven't spent enough time with you."

Chen Xia quickly pulled her hand back, her face flushed as she said, "Don't be so wanton. If someone sees me, I'm going to die."

The young man leaned close to Chen Xia's ear and said, "If no one sees, would you be willing to..."

Chen Xia's face became even redder, and he gently pushed the boy away, saying, "If you keep talking nonsense, I won't pay attention to you."

Then he turned and ran away.

The boy chuckled and chased after him.

This scene happened to be seen by Shopkeeper Hong. After thinking for a moment, he called the waiter, gave him some instructions, and asked him to find Chen Lang.

The waiter left in a hurry and saw Chen Lang's ox cart at the door of a grocery store.

After Chen Lang came out, he immediately stepped forward and said, "Brother Chen, please stay."

Chen Lang was slightly surprised and asked, "What's the matter?"

The waiter said, "Excuse me, can you please talk for a moment?"

The two of them came to the alley next to them, and the waiter said, "Brother Chen, I've been asked by my boss to tell you something."

Chen Lang said, "Please speak."

"Who is the little girl who blocked your way at the door of the store?" asked the waiter.

Chen Lang said frankly: "She used to be my younger sister, but now we are no longer related and have no contact."

"Why do you ask?"

The waiter said, "That's right. The boy who was dining with that little girl is named Hua Chengyu."

"This guy is not a good person. He specializes in deceiving young girls who are not familiar with the world."

"Although you've severed your relationship with that girl, she's still your sister after all. When you have time, persuade her to break up with Hua Chengyu as soon as possible. Otherwise, if something unexpected happens, it will be too late to regret it."

Hua Chengyu?

It’s no wonder that a sorcerer who performs shamanic rituals could deceive a little girl.

Chen Lang smiled and shook his head, putting the thought behind him. He said, "Little Second Brother, go back and thank the shopkeeper for me. I will persuade her, but whether she listens or not is her own business."

The waiter said, "Brother Chen, let me tell you something else."

"Even the shopkeeper doesn't know about this."

Chen Lang nodded and signaled him to continue.

The waiter said, "Hua Chengyu, after tricking the girls into giving birth, he imprisoned them and forced them to have children. If the baby was a girl, he would throw it away. If it was a boy, he would sell it."

"I saw it with my own eyes. He threw a mother and her child into the river."

"Poor kid, he was still alive when he was thrown into the river, and he drowned."

Chen Lang's face suddenly darkened.

The boy looked to be just over the age of pursuing studies, how could he have done such a vicious thing?

"Why didn't you save..."

The waiter looked at Chen Lang with a strange look.

Chen Lang sighed, knowing that he had asked a very stupid question.

He was just a waiter with a monthly salary of one penny and had no money to save people.

What's more, even if a rich person saw this scene, he would most likely turn a blind eye.

Because in this era, human life, especially women's life, is as worthless as grass.

"Sorry, I said the wrong thing." Chen Lang said.

The waiter said, "It's okay. Brother Chen is a scholar and has a kind heart."

Chen Lang asked, "Do you know where Hua Chengyu lives?"

"I don't know which one is in Maoyan Hutong in Xinghuafang. You have to ask for it yourself," said the waiter.

Chen Lang gave the shopkeeper a tip of more than twenty coins, then drove the ox cart towards Maoyan Hutong.

After asking someone at the entrance of the alley and finding out his specific address, he arrived at Hua Chengyu's door.

The door was locked and the yard was quiet.

No one is home.

Chen Lang didn't give up and peeked inside through the crack in the door.

"What are you doing!" A loud shout came from behind, startling Chen Lang.

Turning around, he found a middle-aged woman staring at him with a wary look on her face.

Chen Lang hurriedly explained, "Auntie, don't misunderstand. I'm here to look for someone."

"Looking for someone? Is this how you look for someone? You look so sneaky, I think you want to steal something." The middle-aged woman said relentlessly.

Chen Lang said, "I'm really here to look for someone. I'm looking for my sister. She's been having an affair with this family's son without her family's knowledge. She just came of age, and now she's been caught up in this. Her family is going crazy with worry."

When the middle-aged woman heard this, she said with a half-smile, "This boy surnamed Hua has a good appearance and a good mouth. It is indeed easy for him to deceive young girls."

"The whole family works at the Zhang residence during the day and only comes back at night."

"If you want to find someone, come back in the evening."
