Chapter 158 Save me, I want to go home
To avoid arousing suspicion from the villagers, Jiang Yuan could not go to the scene and had to entrust the task to Xiao Moyan and Xiao Xiaohui.

Her heart pounded, worried that Xiao Moyan wouldn't be able to persuade the family to keep their livestock.

"Yuan Yuan, Yan will try her best!" Little Black Swallow could sense Jiang Yuan's anxiety. "If we can't convince them to help, Yan will go and cause trouble herself!"

Jiang Yuan reached out and stroked its feathers, smiling, "Thank you, Little Ink Swallow."

"You're welcome!" Little Ink Swallow said before flying out the window with Little Gray.

Jiang Yuan stood by the window, watching their silhouettes gradually blend into the night. Her brows furrowed deeper and deeper, as if a heavy stone was pressing on her heart.

If her plan fails, He Yingying will have to spend the rest of her life healing from the shadow of today.

"Don't put pressure on yourself." Si Heng walked to her side, his tone calm. "You've already done your best."

“Yes, Jiang Yuan.” Xiao Xu walked over and took her arm. “We can only do our best and leave the rest to fate.”

Jiang Yuan knew they were worried about her, and her heart warmed. A faint smile appeared on her lips. "Thank you."

"I think Jiang Yuan, you should see a psychologist and get some counseling when you have time," Meng Xiaokai earnestly suggested.

“Yes.” Chen Ziqi agreed. “I’ll teach you how to make an appointment when we get back. It’s free.”

To do this kind of work, you need a strong heart.

Jiang Yuan has handled so many cases in less than half a year; her mentality is bound to suffer.

Si Heng frowned, a pang of self-reproach flashing through his mind.

He actually overlooked something so important.

Hearing everyone's concerned words, Jiang Yuan nodded solemnly and said, "Okay, then I'll trouble you to teach me how to make an appointment when we get back."

Meng Xiaokai said with a smile, "Don't be so polite, we're all family here."

After about a minute, Jiang Yuan said with a serious expression, "I still think we can't just wait here. I need to think of another way."

If Xiao Moyan and the others had failed, He Yingying wouldn't have been ruined by that scumbag with one leg and the other leg.

"What are your thoughts?" Si Heng asked softly.

Jiang Yuan stared at him with her dark eyes. "I saw a snake nearby during the day when I was upstairs."

"A snake!" Xiao Xu's pupils contracted slightly, and he couldn't help but shudder. "That's terrifying!"

"You understand snake language too?" Meng Xiaokai looked at her in shock.

"It should be possible." Jiang Yuan has snake language in her dictionary, but she has never come into contact with snakes.

"Should?" Chen Ziqi frowned in disapproval. "What if it bites you if communication fails?"

He Lewei also spoke up: "It's not convenient to go to the hospital in this remote mountain area."

Jiang Yuan knew they were worried about her, and said gently, "No, I'm sure."

Si Heng asked in a deep voice, "How confident are you?"

"Eighty percent," Jiang Yuan answered conservatively.

Si Heng pondered for a few seconds, then looked at her again with his deep eyes, "Then let's give it a try. I'll go out with you to find snakes."

Jiang Yuan nodded. "Let's go now."

“Then I’ll go too!” Meng Xiaokai said quickly.

Chen Ziqi, not to be outdone, retorted, "Count me in."

Xiao Xu was terrified of snakes and said timidly, "Then... I'll wait here for your good news."

“It’s alright, Si Heng and I can go together,” Jiang Yuan explained. “Too many people will only scare them.”

"Alright, then be careful," Chen Ziqi instructed.

"Okay." Jiang Yuan and Si Heng went downstairs together. The two opened the door and went outside, walking around the building and into the overgrown weeds by the dim light of their cell phones.

Xiao Moyan and Xiao Xiaohui arrived at Aunt Mei's house.

They assumed that since pigs were the largest, they must be the most destructive, so they came first to persuade the pigs in the pen.

Before we knew it, the pigs started to doze off after only a few words, their snores filling the air.

Little Ink Swallow was frantic. "Those pigs are awful! They fell asleep before I could even finish speaking!"

"There's nothing we can do, they're just pigs." Little Gray seemed quite philosophical about it.

"This is infuriating!" Little Black Swallow was furious and even retaliated by pecking at the pigs, but they still slept soundly.

Little Mo Yan knew she couldn't waste her time on these pigs, so she went to find the dog instead.

Aunt Mei's family only kept one big yellow dog, which was lazily curled up on the ground.

"Do you want to eat meat?" Little Black Swallow flew to its front.

The big yellow dog stared at the suddenly appearing bird, its eyes instantly turning wary.

It did not answer Little Black Swallow's question, but instead made a gesture as if preparing to attack.

"Dog friend, I know a human who has a lot of meat. Do you want to eat it?" Xiao Moyan asked again.

The next second, the big yellow dog suddenly pounced on it.

The little swallow was so frightened that it quickly retreated, and several feathers were torn off by its sharp claws.

"What's wrong with you, you dog?" Little Black Swallow flapped its wing across its chest in alarm. "I'm trying to talk to you nicely, and you not only don't answer, but you also try to scare me!"

The big yellow dog barked loudly, "I can't be bothered with you!"

Xiao Moyan: "..."

What bad luck to run into an unreasonable dog!

"This dog is brainless, it won't work," Little Ink Swallow said, turning to Little Gray. "Change it!"

"Okay." Little Gray flew towards the chicken coop.

Xiao Moyan followed and said to the chickens in the coop, "Hello, can you do me a favor? I'll give you something delicious."

A rooster asked curiously, "What kind of help?"

in the room.

He Yingying was woken up by a bucket of cold water.

She opened her eyes and saw the face covered in black spots, and almost fainted again from fright.

Aunt Mei leaned closer and looked her over carefully.

When He Yingying saw her, she immediately grabbed her clothes and choked out, "Auntie, please save me, I want to go home..."

"Sister." Aunt Mei forcefully pried her hands open and said with a forced smile, "Since you're here, settle down and live a good life with Bangzi. If you can give Bangzi a few big, healthy sons, we definitely won't treat you badly."

"What did you say?" He Yingying's eyes widened in horror, and she asked in a trembling voice, "You want me to have his son?"

"Yes, that's right." Aunt Mei nodded. "Our family spent 60,000 yuan. You have to give Bangzi at least six sons."

"Impossible!" He Yingying shook her head desperately. "I'd rather die than give him a son!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Aunt Mei slapped her across the face, saying, "Sister, you don't have a choice!"

"You said you spent 60,000 yuan, right?" He Yingying pleaded urgently, enduring the pain in her cheek. "I have money, I'll give you double, please let me go."

"We don't want money!" Aunt Mei reached out and pinched her chin, patting her face with her other hand. "I want you to give birth to a son for Bangzi! The water's over there, get yourself cleaned up, and you have to give birth tonight!"
