After locating the target for revenge, Wu’s sister-in-law went to find a fat man, who ca from the sa village as her.
Wu’s sister-in-law’s maiden village was very peculiar; officially, it was called Xiaopanshan Village in the county records, but locals secretly referred to it as Kidnapper Village, as its residents had made a living from kidnapping for a long period before liberation.
After the liberation, Xiaopanshan Village, under the governnt’s crackdown, saw its residents reform and beco lawful farrs. However, a few years ago, so of the villagers picked up their ancestors’ old trade and resud kidnapping, increasing their number as they went.
The leader among them was certainly the fat man, Yu Hongguang. Yu Hongguang had about a dozen underlings, all from the sa village, and despite everyone knowing what he was doing outside, they all chose to remain silent or ignore it.
Moved by what Wu’s sister-in-law had to say, Yu Hongguang took action, but they never anticipated being bitten by their own ga!
A resentful Duan Hongguang, as soon as he got caught, snitched on Wu’s sister-in-law right away. Therefore, Wu’s sister-in-law was sentenced to ten years in prison for being an accessory to the cri, which was only possible thanks to good timing; otherwise, she might have been detained for a few days and then released.
The ten traffickers, without exception, were all sentenced to death, charged not with trafficking but with being hooligans. On the day of the firing squad execution, these individuals were blindfolded with black cloth, tightly bound, and paraded around the city on a truck with signs hanging from their necks.
Many people from the County Committee Building went to watch the execution and vividly described the scene upon their return.
When Wu Jingsong learned of this, he felt extrely guilty and personally went to apologize. Given that debts have their debtors and grievances their culprits, Sisi of course did not bla him. Truth be told, Wu Jingsong and his three children were the most pitiable; saddled with the dark past of Wu’s sister-in-law, his children would be affected in their schooling, work, and relationships, moreover, Wu Jingsong’s career was likely over.
Despite the unhappiness brought about by the traffickers, this did not affect Sisi’s family’s New Year spirits at all. On the eve of the Lunar New Year, they squeezed into a cave dwelling to have their New Year’s Eve dinner and watch the Spring Festival Gala, bursting with joy.
This year’s favorite act at the Gala for Sisi was the cody sketch "Lamb Skewers" perford by two famous actors. Even having seen it countless tis in her past life, she still couldn’t help but laugh and hold her stomach.
The performance was genuinely entertaining. Despite not having real lamb skewers, the two actors made it seem utterly real, unlike so later actors whose acting was diocre at best but whose stages were grand, completely subrging the perforrs in lavish props, hardly fitting to be called a performance.
Unfortunately, both actors were banned in the 90s and never perford sketches again, a significant loss to the performing arts community.
After Spring Festival, He Xuewen and Mo Ye were the first to leave Huang Yuan, followed by Tian Manmu, Jin Wanming, and Zhu Aiqing. Tian Manjin and his two sons stayed a bit longer to finalize their land lease negotiations.
Tian Xinhua was very supportive of Tian Manjin coming to Huang Yuan to lease mountainous land, and Du Changlin and Hu Dingkun had no objections. They were more than happy to have soone invest in Huang Yuan!
Thus, Tian Manjin leased nearly ten thousand acres of mountain and flat land in Huang Yuan for innovative breeding practices, which had already proven to be highly successful in Yuequan Village and were not difficult to implent.
Before the school term began, Tian Manjin also returned ho, while Tian Qinghua stayed behind, busy every day. Tian Donghua, on the other hand, left directly from Huang Yuan and headed to school with his classmates.
After finishing her maternity leave, Sisi had to return to work, and Du Du was left in the care of Granny Zhao. Fortunately, Du Du was already four months old and could eat so supplentary foods like egg yolk, vegetable porridge, and soft noodles. He didn’t need to breastfeed as often as before, making it relatively easier for Sisi to go back to work.
Despite having a child, Sisi’s figure remained as slim as before, except her bust had beco much fuller, adding a charm of a young matron to her, and Tian Xinhua found her irresistible.
The female teachers at the school were extrely envious of Sisi’s figure, and they all asked her how she managed to slim down.
Sisi, a bit embarrassed, smiled and said, "I didn’t intentionally try to lose weight, and I’ve been eating quite a bit. I guess all the nutrition probably went to my child; Du Du has a very good appetite."
What Sisi said was true; her appetite during breastfeeding was indeed large, yet she visibly slimd down quickly. Thinking of Du Du’s enormous appetite, Sisi couldn’t help but feel secretly relieved.
The other female teachers teased that Sisi was really lucky; her figure even after having a child was just like that of a young girl, which made them incredibly jealous.
Sisi also joined in the jesting. She tidied up her desk and discovered that there were so items that didn’t belong to her in the drawer, like snacks, a mirror, a comb, sanitary paper, and other small things, while so of her own things had vanished, causing Sisi to frown.
Before her maternity leave, she had inford everyone in the office that her desk should not be used by anyone else, so whose things were these?
"Mr. He, your desk was taken over by the new Teacher Shen. We all told her this was your desk, but she wouldn’t listen, and there was nothing we could do."
Seeing Sisi’s expression, other teachers quickly explained. Sisi smiled at them, but inside, she felt a certain dislike for this new Teacher Shen.
Sisi took out all the items belonging to Teacher Shen from the drawer, packed them in a cardboard box, and placed it on the ground. Initially, she had intended to throw them directly into the trash, but in the end, she managed to control her temper.
The students, seeing Mr. He after four months, were extrely excited; the whole lesson was about Sisi’s child, leading Sisi to take out Du Du’s photos to finally calm the students down.
Unbeknownst to Sisi, while she was teaching, a young woman outside the classroom was staring at her. The woman was naturally beautiful and young, but the smile on the corner of her mouth looked rather sinister no matter how one looked at it.
After the class, Sisi finally t the legendary Teacher Shen. Teacher Shen’s na was Shen Baozhu, in her twenties, with a baby face, beautiful and innocent, a delight to the eyes. However, her current expression didn’t look pleasing to Sisi at all.
Because Shen Baozhu was looking at Sisi with teary eyes, holding that box of items as if Sisi had done sothing extrely cruel to her.
"Mr. He, why did you throw my things on the ground?"
This Teacher Shen’s voice was very pleasant, eerily similar to that of a famous actress from an island nation in a past life, known for her voice which was enchanting yet innocent, extrely seductive to n. Just by looking at the compassionate expressions on the male teachers’ faces in the office one could tell how soul-stirring Teacher Shen’s voice was.
