Chapter 172, Back to the Countryside
Twenty thousand yuan was a huge sum of money in those days.

With this money, their lives will be better.

Only then did Cheng Wanhua go into the village and take Sheng Yueqing away.

Originally, I just wanted to exchange Sheng Yueqing for money.

But Zhong He was afraid that Sheng Yueqing would recognize them, so he wanted to silence them.

Or it could be the poisonous and mute Sheng Yueqing.

But if Sheng Yueqing returned with serious injuries, Mr. Sheng might not forgive them.

So I just wanted to silence him.

But Cheng Wanhua disagreed. If she didn't get the money, wouldn't it be a waste of effort if she just killed the child?

So the two of them started arguing.

Finally, Mr. Sheng came and took the child away.

Sheng Yueqing was puzzled, "Where does Mr. Sheng come from?"

Why can we join forces with Zhong He and others?
Mr. Sheng narrowed his eyes, "This old man turned out to be a powerful opponent that the higher-ups wanted to deal with."

It is said that Old Man Sheng’s background seems to be not simple.

He is a very powerful villain among the older generation.

But he had been hiding for many years and no one could find him.

I didn't expect that I would hide in such a remote countryside and stay there for decades.

Even his child was taken away.

Sheng Yueqing was puzzled, "What did Mr. Sheng want to do by taking me away?"

Could it be that he wanted to use her to threaten his father?

Mr. Sheng shook his head. "He might want to keep you as a pawn so that he can use me as a trader in the future."

Or maybe he wanted to train Sheng Yueqing to be an enemy spy.

But looking at Sheng Yueqing's character, that doesn't seem to be the case.

Sheng Yueqing recalled, "He didn't teach me anything except how to read and write, and how to identify herbs, nothing else."

If you really want to train her, you must teach her a lot.

But Old Man Sheng obviously didn't.

Mr. Sheng was also wondering about this.

He is obviously a villain, so why doesn’t he lead the kids astray?
Could it be that you felt compassion for the child?

Sheng Yueqing recalled, "In fact, Mr. Sheng was quite nice to me. When we were young, he played chess with me and praised me for being smart."

If Zhang Dahua didn't give her food, the old man would secretly roast sweet potatoes for her.

The only warmth in her childhood came from Old Man Sheng.

Mr. Sheng was touched.

Maybe old man Sheng, in his old age, has some sympathy for children.

However, the higher-ups asked Sheng Yueqing to go over and cooperate with the investigation.

After all, he is such a big villain.

They were also afraid that Sheng Yueqing would be corrupted.

Mrs. Sheng was worried when she heard this. "Why are you still investigating my daughter?"

Mr. Sheng told her that it was a serious matter, "It's better to ask them, so that they can feel at ease."

He asked Sheng Yueqing, "Are you sure the old man is dead?"

Sheng Yueqing nodded, "He died when I was in high school. When he died, he encouraged me to study hard and get out of this mountain."

"Did he give you anything?"

Sheng Yueqing recalled, “Yes, he gave me some books.”

And some pocket money.

There is nothing left.

Before the old man died, he asked Zhang Dahua to burn all his belongings so that he could take them away.

Zhang Dahua didn't want to keep the old man's things taking up space, so she burned them.

Mr. Sheng frowned, "He might have burned all those important things."

"But you need to bring back those books."

"The people above will go with you then."

Sheng Yueqing understood.

Maybe the people above were afraid that she was also a small enemy spy.

This matter was decided in the next few days. At the end of the month they would have to go south to the countryside to get those books.

Mrs. Sheng looked worried, "Will this matter implicate our Qingqing?"

The child itself is a victim.

If I get implicated, it would be an unexpected disaster.

Mr. Sheng shook his head. "It'll be fine. I'll be watching."

At worst, they could just give up their positions and live a free life in the countryside.

Mrs. Sheng knew that if she didn't investigate the matter thoroughly, she would never be free in the future. He Yushen also frowned as he listened.

"Wife, why are we so unlucky?"

Just coming to Kyoto has caused so many problems.

Sheng Yueqing is quite open-minded.

"I guess this is destined to happen."

There weren’t so many things going on in my previous life, but the ending wasn’t good either.

My life has been opened up. Not only did I open a factory and become a boss, I also recognized my parents.

Now that there is a small disaster, it can be regarded as a reward for these benefits.

Besides, she is not a bad person and is not afraid of investigation.

The next day they sorted out the accounts here, packed up their things, and prepared to go to Shanghai first and then return to the countryside.

When Mrs. Sheng heard that they were leaving, she wanted to follow them.

Mr. Sheng said, "You are already old. Don't travel back and forth. It's not good for your health."

Old Mrs. Sheng was very reluctant to leave.

"What kind of thing is this? He just came and left. I haven't even had a few days to spend with my granddaughter."

Sheng Yueqing hugged her and said, "It's okay. I'll come back to see you when I'm done."

Although Mrs. Sheng was reluctant to let them go, she also knew that they were busy with work, so she said with reluctance, "Then come back to see me soon."

"I'm afraid I don't have many years left to live, and I'm afraid I won't be able to see you before I die."

As he spoke, he began to cry.

Sheng Yueqing felt sad and hurriedly wiped her tears.

"Don't say that. I think you can live to be a hundred years old with your face."

"You're still decades away from being a hundred."

"We'll come see you when we're done."

"I'll give you a little great-grandson by then?"

When talking about her little great-grandson, Mrs. Sheng didn't want to die anymore.

"That will have to wait until you come back. Remember to come back and give me great-grandchildren."

When people get old, they hope for the prosperity of their family.

She was looking forward to her granddaughter giving her a few great-grandchildren.

Sheng Yueqing tempted her, "How about letting you take care of the baby instead of my mother?"

Old Mrs. Sheng immediately perked up.

"Okay, I'll help you take care of it. Grandma will definitely take good care of it for you."

Sheng Yueqing smiled, "Then you should lose weight first."

"If you were still this fat before I came back, you would never have been able to snatch it from my mom."

Old Madam Sheng immediately waited for Madam Sheng vigilantly.

Mrs. Sheng raised her chin, as if to say, "I'm going to snatch it from you."

Mrs. Sheng immediately became excited, "Okay, I'll lose weight, I must win."

Having said that, he immediately ordered the kitchen to eat light meals from today on.

Mr. Sheng laughed.

I thought this trick really works.

The departure was now smoother, and they set off the next day.

They first went to Shanghai to look at the shops.

Seeing that the shop was doing well, he went to the countryside.

It’s been almost two years since I came out.

When I went back again, I actually felt a little homesick.

He Yushen hugged her and said, "It's okay. We are all with you this time."

Sheng Yueqing looked at his family around him and felt confident.

This time she was not alone, her family members were with her.

When you get to the countryside.

That is what Shengjia Village looked like in its original state.

But the road seems to have improved and is much easier to walk on than before.

Mr. Sheng looked at this place and felt that it looked familiar.

Looking towards the direction of Yuanjia Village, we can see that the two villages are indeed in the same area, but the trees were so dense back then that they covered the area and we couldn't see this place.

Looking at it now, one can see that the two villages are in the same circle.

No wonder the child was brought here.

The women at the entrance of the village were eating melon seeds and chatting, but when they saw so many people coming, they immediately gathered around and asked curiously, "Who are you looking for? Are you from out of town?"
