Thanos's biological daughter in period fiction
Chapter 56 Don't Go Far
"Oh, right, I overheard them discussing..." Liu Fangmei told her husband about taking her son to find Song Dazhi.
When Xia Jixuan learned that they wanted to sell his daughter, he was furious. Liu Fangmei quickly calmed him down and told him about her own concerns.
She had reservations after hearing about where the human traffickers lived. She wanted to investigate herself, but she couldn't leave the village at the moment, and besides, she was a little worried about going to such a dangerous place on her own.
“You don’t need to go yourself. Just write what you know in an envelope and deliver it directly to Wu Zhihong at the police station. He’s my comrade-in-arms. Just tell him that you’re my wife, and he’ll know what to do.” Xia Jixuan didn’t dare let his wife take the risk.
"I understand. What about Song Dazhi and the others..." Liu Fangmei only now felt the fear she had felt after doing this. She had made the decision out of anger towards Song Dazhi.
She cleaned up the other two too, because she overheard what they were saying. But now that she thinks about it, she's not the law, and what she did was a bit impulsive.
"It's okay, try to see if you can pull me out..." The key is whether we can get out. If we can get out of here anytime, anywhere, then there are many more things he can do.
"Okay, let's try it out. Hold my hand, I'm going out." Liu Fang didn't hold her man's hand. She was thinking about going out, and she did go out. She was still thinking about trying to leave home and calculating the time to see if there was a time limit.
It was nighttime, which was perfect for him to do his experiment. He left the yard and drove around the village, but nothing seemed out of the ordinary. He only dared to step out when he reached the village entrance, intending to leave. Suddenly, everything went black, and he was back in his own yard.
The man's sudden appearance startled Liu Fangmei. After touching him and finding that he was unharmed, she sat down with lingering fear, waiting for her husband to speak.
"I walked around the village for about 40 minutes and didn't feel anything, but the moment I tried to step out of the village, everything went black and I came back." To this day, he only knows that he was fine as long as he walked around the village, and even after 40 minutes, he was still fine.
Now I'm wondering if it's a matter of time or location. If there were no time constraints and he could only stay in the village, then it would be fine for him to go home and spend time with his wife during his holidays.
"Let's see if we can get out. If we can, then it's a location restriction. Next time, we'll try to get out from somewhere else." No matter what, he had to try before he could give up.
"Okay, I've discussed it with the kids. After this autumn harvest, we plan to go on a trip. We'll go to the beach I discovered before I got married, and I'm thinking of stocking up on some seafood. But we can't tell anyone outside; we'll do it under the guise of visiting relatives." Liu Fangmei knew that the sweet potatoes in the field would be ready in a few more days, and there was no point in planting winter wheat now, since there were no wheat seeds left.
So once the autumn harvest is over and the grain is distributed, there's nothing else to worry about. In the past, after the autumn harvest, we could go up the mountain to get some wild fruits like chestnuts, but now, let alone chestnuts, we don't even know if the trees are completely dry.
Now, when you go up the mountain, you might not even find a single old wild vegetable, let alone chestnut branches.
The ground was so dry that it cracked, and even if they wanted to prepare for the spring planting of the following year, there was nothing to prepare because without water, many things simply couldn't be done.
"Is it safe? If it's not safe, then forget it. Come on over if you can't see clearly." Xia Jixuan didn't want his wife to take any risks. After all, there was so much food in Qingyu Residence that even if their family of five ate for two lifetimes, they probably wouldn't be able to finish it all.
Besides, this place is renewable; there's no need to risk everything for a little bit of supplies.
"It's quite safe. I discovered that place many years ago when I had no food. Back then, I caught a lot of things there to sell and pay for my parents' medical treatment. I lived there for quite a while and found that it seemed like no one else knew about that place except me." From the time she discovered it until she made money, no one knew about it. She wanted to replenish the sea in Qingyu Residence with some species. The goal was to enrich the marine life in the sea around Qingyu Residence so that they could always have whatever they wanted to eat.
"Alright, go ahead if you want. Be careful, let's try again over there to see if I can get out from there." Xia Jixuan thought the problem might not be the village itself, but the distance. So he wanted to get used to a few more places before drawing any conclusions.
"Don't worry, it's fine. We're all very strong now. I'll just put Tangtang in here while we're traveling, and take her out when we get there. Has it snowed where you are? When you're on holiday, go to the supply and marketing cooperative there and see if they sell any yarn. The sweaters at home are all worn out, and I want to knit new sweaters and pants for the kids." There is yarn here, but the colors are too bright. Taking a little to match the pattern is fine, but making the whole garment this color won't work.
"Isn't there some in the warehouse? Black and gray will do. I think this yarn is a bit too stiff. It's not suitable for a delicate little girl like Tangtang." He'd handled the yarn from the supply and marketing cooperative before. It might be fine for a rough old man like him, but it's really not suitable for knitting sweaters and pants for children.
If you have something in your own storage room, you can just take it out here. Anyway, you wear sweaters and long johns underneath, so as long as you don't wash them, who will see them if you hang them in the yard?
Xia Jixuan felt that his wife was overthinking things. What's wrong with a nicer color? A young girl should wear nicer colors.
Even if others see it, he can just say he sent it back. People will always find it interesting whatever he sends back from abroad. Yarn is a very ordinary thing; it's just that the colors are a bit bright, but that's not a big deal.
There are more and better colors in Haicheng. He went to Haicheng when he went out on missions and saw a lot of brightly colored clothes, but they are not available here.
"I know, but I was just worried about it being too conspicuous. Your mother and sister are not to be trifled with, and I'm too lazy to argue with them. They don't know about your salary now, but if they find out one day, they'll definitely make a huge scene." Liu Fangmei was still worried, after all, the old couple from the Xia family were her in-laws, and if they went too far, she would be the subject of gossip.
"Then don't let them know. During holidays, just send some things over to Shi Tou and the others as a token of your appreciation. Don't give them anything else. I've already given them two years' worth of alimony and food, so they don't need anything else for the next two years except for holidays." Xia Jixuan didn't want his mother to know either, after all, his sister and mother were too difficult to deal with.
