Chapter 404 - Return
Chapter 404 Return
Xiao Fuqi came to join the crowd. The villagers hadn’t been on a helicopter before, so they came to look. In the future, they could show off to people from the other villages. However, Xiao Fuqi soon heard from his son that Zhang Chunjiao had packed her things and left overnight. Xiao Fuqi thought that he had drunk too much and that he was hallucinating.
He asked again, “What did you say just now? Your mother has packed up and left?!” Xiao Fuqi’s son nodded and said, “Yes. I asked mom where she was going, and she said she was going to Grandpa’s place. But Dad, didn’t Grandpa and uncles say that they didn’t want Mom to go back to them? Why is she going back to them then?”
There were many people in the sunning field. Xiao Fuqi’s son also spoke loud enough that everyone could hear him.
At this moment, someone immediately joked, “Fuqi, did you beat your wife too much that she is escaping when you’re not home?”
“That’s right, Fuqi. You’ve been married to Zhang Chunjiao for at least twenty years. Despite what she did, you shouldn’t hit her like this.”
These people’s had a hint of mockery in their ‘advice’.
After all, the reason the table turned was something incredibly humiliating to Xiao Fuqi. Otherwise, with Zhang Chunjiao’s fierce personality, she would lord over Xiao Fuqi for the rest of her life.
However, Zhang Chunjiao had to do something stupid. She had a good family, but she wanted to have an affair. But perhaps that was in her bones. After all, before she married, she had already hooked up with a married man.
The villagers would sometimes ridicule Xiao Fuqi. “Fuqi, why are you doing this? So Zhang Chunjiao cheated on you. She’ll change. You don’t need to hit her so hard every time.” This sounded like advice, but it was also no different from exposing one’s scar.
“That’s right. You are already an old couple. Even if Zhang Chunjiao did those things on the streets… you two already have children. Zhang Chunjiao still needs to live with you for the rest of your life. Why not have some peace at home?”
“That’s right.”
Xiao Fu’s face turned green and red when he heard these things. He was angry and embarrassed.
Ever since Zhang Chunjiao did those things, his entire family had been looked down upon and criticized. It was simply infuriating.
At first, his family would still argue with the other villagers, but the more they argued, the more humiliated they felt. After all, what Zhang Chunjiao did was witnessed by everyone.
In the beginning, he had also thought about getting a divorce. However, for a person like him, getting a divorce was easy, but getting married was difficult. He didn’t have money, and he was old. He had a son and a daughter. Who was going to marry him?
So instead of finding his son a stepmother, he decided to stay with his wife.
“Your son, Xiaoqiang, said that Zhang Chunjiao ran away from home, right?” After joking for a while, someone remembered this detail.

Xiao Xiaoqiang shook his head and said, “My mother didn’t run away from home. She said she was going to Grandpa’s house.”
“Everyone knows that your Grandpa and your two uncles don’t welcome your mother back anymore.” The villager didn’t care that Xiaoqiang was just a child. He said directly, “Besides, it is midnight. Who would go visit in the middle of the night? Xiaoqing, your mother left home and didn’t want you anymore.”
The child didn’t like this joke. When Xiao Xiaoqiang heard that his mother didn’t want him, he immediately burst into tears.
Xiao Fu was annoyed and shouted angrily at Xiao Xiaoqiang, “Stop crying!”
Xiao Xiaoqiang was a little afraid of his own father. He did not dare to cry after that. However, tears continued to flow down his face, and his face turned red.
Xiao Fuqi didn’t care about his son. He didn’t care about the crowd too.
With a livid face, he turned around and left in a hurry. “The damn woman actually dared to run away from home. I’ll beat her until she can’t get down from bed for at least half a month!’
When Xiao Fuqi left, he ran into Xiao Lingyu and Gong Tianhao.
Xiao Lingyu looked at Xiao Fuqi’s flustered expression, and a light flashed in her eyes. She instantly had a guess in her heart. ‘If it were really her, she wouldn’t be able to run away.’
Gong Tianhao helped Xiao Lingyu over. When they saw Xiao Fuqi’s expression, the two of them looked at each other and nodded in tacit agreement. Then, they continued to walk forward.
When they reached the sunning ground, the moonlight was very bright. Xiao Lingyu saw Xiao Xiaoqiang, who was crying in the crowd.
She walked over and asked, “Xiaoqiang, what happened to you?”
A villager beside him immediately said, “His father scolded him.”
Xiao Lingyu frowned and asked curiously, “Uncle Fuqi scolded Xiaoqiang? Why?”.
“Xiaoqiang came over to tell his father that his mother packed up her things and went to his grandfather’s house,” a villager explained, “Then, we made a few jokes and said that his mother didn’t want him anymore. He burst into tears and was scolded by his father.”
Xiao Lingyu and Gong Tianhao’s eyes lit up. The traitor was most likely Zhang Chunjiao.
Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “Auntie Zhang went back to her maiden family so late at night. Isn’t she afraid of being chased away?” “We think so too.” A villager immediately echoed, “Besides, her family cut off all relations with her. Would they open the door for her now?”
“This is so strange.” A villager was puzzled. “Actually, I think Xiao Fuqi has stopped hitting Zhang Chunjiao in the past week. Why would she choose this moment to go back to her maiden family? She didn’t run home when Xiao Fuqi beat her the hardest.”
“That’s true.”
While the villagers were discussing it, Xiao Lingyu said, “Third uncle, Taoyuan Village is about 40 miles away from Xiaba Village. And the journey is through the mountains. Auntie Zhang left in the middle of the night. I’m worried about her. Should we send two people to get her back? After all, safety is most important. She can leave in the morning,
right?”
This third uncle was Xiao Bangfu. He was a busybody in the village.
Xiao Bangfu thought for a moment and said, “Xiao Fuqi has left to chase after her. He should be able to find her.”
Xiao Lingyu immediately revealed a worried expression and said, “But third uncle, will Uncle Fuqi hit Auntie Zhang again? Auntie Zhang suddenly ran away from home. If Uncle Fuqi didn’t hold back his temper…” Xiao Bangfu heard this and was silent. Then, he said very seriously, “Lingyu, you’re right. I’ll ask someone to go with me to take a look.” But he didn’t want to move. After all, these rural people hadn’t seen a real helicopter before. Even though the Gong Family had helicopters flying in and out daily, they were small planes. This was a big one, so they wanted to stay to look. After all, they wouldn’t have the chance to ride on the plane. They could at least watch it up close.
Xiao Lingyu was very clear about the thoughts of the villagers. Of course, she would not force them.
Xiao Lingyu said with a smile, “Third uncle, there’s no rush. We should ask Xiaoqiang to go back home and take a look. Hopefully, Auntie Xiao hasn’t left. That way, Uncle Fuqi wouldn’t be so angry. Then, we’ll go and look for her later.”
She guessed that Zhang Chunjiao wanted to make her escape after hearing that Little Light and Big Light had been found. The countryside was filled with mountains and forests. If Zhang Chunjiao went to hide in the mountain, they would spend a lot of effort to find her.
Without any evidence, Xiao Lingyu needed to stall. When the police came tomorrow with concrete evidence, they would arrest Zhang Chunjiao.
She couldn’t tell everyone that she suspected that Zhang Chunjiao had something to do with the disappearance of the two cattle. These things required evidence.
Xiao Bangfu agreed and said, “Yu ‘Er, you’re right.” Then, he turned to look at Xiao Xiaoqiang and said, “Xiaoqiang, go back home and see if your mother has left. If she has, see if your father has gone to look for her or not.
“If your mom is still home and your father hits your mother, come back to tell Third Grandpa, okay? Actually, come back and tell us no matter you found your mother at home or not.”
Xiao Xiaoqiang wiped his tears with the back of his hand and nodded. “Okay.”
After Xiao Xiaoqiang left, Gong Tianhao went to a deserted place and made a phone call.
“Ah, the plane is coming down. The wind is so strong!”
When the plane landed, it attracted a lot of attention.
“Yeah. You can’t find this gust from those small planes.”
“Ah, everyone, step back a little, step back a little,” A villager shouted.
Fortunately, the sunning ground was very large. Even if there were many people standing there, there was still a lot of space.
A moment later, the plane landed.
When the plane completely stopped, some of the bolder villagers curiously surrounded it. Even more daring villagers used their hands to touch it.
“Wow, I’ve touched a helicopter!” Most people were curious and excited about new things.
“Me too! This is a real one. Not a model plane!”
More and more people ran over and touched the plane.
Only the Xiao family members looked at the cabin door excitedly.
Not long after, the cabin door opened, and the first person to walk out was Situ Xing.
He was wearing a white suit and a pair of sunglasses. The corners of his mouth curved as he looked at the crowded crowd below.
After he walked out, Big Light and her son appeared.
When Little Light stood at the cabin door, he raised his head and mooed. On a silent night, it was unusually loud and shocking. “The Little Cattle King is back.”
“He is as spirited as ever.”
“As expected of the Little Cattle King. He took a helicopter before any of us did.”
“Does this mean we’re worse than a cow?”
“But that’s true! Haha.”
Everyone was talking about Little Light and Big Light and their adventure on the plane.
Situ Xing saw Gong Tianhao from the plane.
Then, he noticed the woman beside him.
The moonlight was cold, but it couldn’t hide Situ Xing’s curious eyes.
The moment he got off the plane, he ran straight to Gong Tianhao and called out, “Boss.”
Then, before Xiao Lingyu could react, Situ Xing called out, “Hello, sister-in-law.”
Xiao Lingyu, “…” The Xiao Family, “…” Is this man Gong Tianhao’s brother?
Gong Tianhao didn’t correct Situ Xing. Gong Tianhao raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile, “Why are you here?”
Situ Xing said, “I happened to be wandering around that area when you gave the order. I accepted it and dealt with it myself.”
Gong Tianhao was speechless.
Situ Xing was wandering around every day. No one could tell where he was. How could it be so coincidental that he was there?
Situ Xing had weird habits when he came to his medical practices. But at normal times, his favorite hobby was gossiping. He was probably intrigued by the facts behind this order and came to look.
The corner of Gong Tianhao’s mouth twitched, but he said directly, “Alright, you can go back now. After all, the mission has been completed.”
Speaking of the two cows, Situ Xing had something to say.
He said, “Boss, they are the two most obedient and sensible cows I have ever seen.”
Gong Tianhao raised his eyebrows and asked curiously, “Oh, is that so? What do you mean?”
Situ Xing said, “When we found them in Chuan-Guang rest stop, they were drugged and unconscious. For the convenience of transportation, we originally planned to continue to drug them. “But they woke up in the middle of the transportation. They didn’t jump around and run away like the other cows. They looked at each other, and I swore they exchanged a look before they started to struggle.
“It was dangerous because we were up in the sky. At that critical moment, I told them directly that I was flying them home. At first, they were confused. But eventually, they stopped fighting us.
“I didn’t expect them to quiet down. Then, I told them it was a man called Gong Tianhao who asked me to rescue them. They became completely obedient after that. They were as quiet as children on the plan.”
Xiao Lingyu and Gong Tianhao, “.. Is this really that shocking?
