3.32% Farming Space Makes Me Rich / Chapter 38: Going Home

Kapitel 38: Going Home

Xingyin Newspaper and the television station reported the story. The human traffickers' gang led by Sister Hong was finally caught.

Eight women and six children were rescued. A dozen families could finally be reunited.

After the criminals were caught, the police tracked down the other victims using the clues provided by the criminals.

...

At Taoyuan Village, a family of old and young sat before a black-and-white television watching the news.

"Based on the statement given by Chief Jiang, the police were able to track down the human trafficker thanks to the courage of a heroine. The girl used herself as bait. She pretended to be lured by Sister Hong, and that was how the police managed to arrive at the criminal's lair. The police set up an ambush and captured all the criminals!"

"Chief Jiang, can we meet this heroine?" The reporter asked curiously.

Jiang Tao shook his head and said thoughtfully, "I'm sorry, at the request of the heroine, she doesn't want to reveal her identity. She is very smart, brave, calm, and composed. Without her aid, we wouldn't have captured this gang so quickly."

The reporter laughed, "Haha. It looks like the heroine has left a deep impression on Chief Jiang. We like to meet her, so this is a pity. On a related note, Chief Jiang, will the government provide this nameless heroine with any reward?"

Chief Jiang smiled. "The government plans to reward this heroine with 50,000."

"Wow, 50,000? That's a lot!" A teen about 10 exclaimed, "If I have that money, I can buy so many books!" As soon as he said that, he was hit in the head.

The teen rubbed his head and mumbled, "Brother Ye, why did you hit me?"

Brother Ye was an eighteen-year-old kid. He wore a white sweater, a black jacket, and a pair of blue jeans.

Xiao Lingye said, "Little Brat, the heroine used her life as bait to lure in the criminals. Do you think life is only worth 50,000? Plus, do you really think she was doing this for money? You should not place so much importance on money. It'll affect your life values."

The boy, called Xiao Xiaohui, asked, "Brother Ye, what are life values?"

Xiao Lingye explained, "It means what you anchor your life with."

Xiao Xiaohui nodded with some understanding, "Brother Ye, I think I get it."

A young woman, Liu Chunhua, stood up to smack Xiaohui on the back of his head. She said with a smile. "What is it that you get? You have much to learn from your Brother Ye. Your Brother Ye scores the first in class every year. You also place the first but from the back!"

"Mom!" Xiao Xiaohui was embarrassed. He rubbed the sore spot on his head. "I understand. I will learn from Brother Ye." But internally, he muttered. 'Brother Ye can take all the first places he wants. Studying is too annoying.'

As his mother, Liu Chunhua, knew what was on her son's mind with a look. She rolled her eyes and hit the boy on the head again. "Don't think I don't know what's going through your mind!"

"Mom, why did you hit me again?"The boy groused.

"You know why." Liu Chunhua chuckled. "You and your studies are such headaches to me. Look at your Sister Yu. She was admitted to the university and found a job in a big city. She receives a high salary every month, and she has a comfortable life. Unlike us, she doesn't need to break her back every day, and we don't even earn as much as she does."

The boy grumbled, "Mom, I also want to study, but I just can't do it. What can I do?"

Liu Chunhua, "..." That was a problem. Liu Chunhua glared at him. "You brat, perhaps some spanking can help." She raised her hand.

Xiao Xiaohui immediately ran towards a middle-aged woman and shouted, "Second Auntie, help! Mommy wants to hit me!" He ran behind Second Auntie.

Xiao Xiaohui's Second Auntie was Chen Qiuying. She was in her forties and was of medium build. She had a round face and a pair of big eyes that were exactly like Xiao Lingyu's. She was incredibly beautiful when she was young. Unlike Xiao Lingyu's eyes which occasionally flashed with temper, Chen Qiuying's eyes were serene with wisdom accumulated over the years.

"Chunhua, what are you doing?"Chen Qiuying shielded the boy behind her. "You can't beat a boy just because he doesn't like to study. Do you think that can fix his problem?"

Liu Chunhua stopped and sighed. "Second Sister, this rascal runs away all day, climbing trees, fishing, and swimming in the river. But the moment I tell him to sit before a book, all his energy fades away. He is real trouble for us."

Chen Qiuying said, "Chunhua, I know that you're worried about Xiaohui's studying. But beating is not going to solve any problem. Perhaps you can help with his homework."

Liu Chunhua frowned and said with concern, "Second Sister, I also know that. But Ming Yang and I haven't been to schools ourselves. We can't help Xiaohui even if we want to. So spanking is our only solution."

Chen Qiuying frowned at this too. She knew about that, but if she was asked, the real problem was because Xiao Xiaohui was too active, and he didn't like to sit down and study.

Xiao Lingye smiled and said, "Third aunt, the school is going on holiday. How about I stay to give Xiaohui some tuition?"

Xiao Xiaohui stuck his head out from behind Chen Qiuying and said, "Brother Ye, do you have any idea how much tuition you've given me already? I just can't process the lessons. It's not going to help me in any way. Just let me be free!"

Liu Chunhua immediately shouted angrily, "You Little Brat, get over here. All you want is to play. This time, I'll break your legs, so you'll have to sit at the table to study!" Liu Chunhua moved towards Xiao Xiaohui.

Xiao Xiaohui immediately ran for his life. Liu Chunhua chased after him and shouted, "Little Brat, why are you running? I'll break your legs when I catch you."

Xiao Xiaohun grinned as he ran. "Haha. But you have to catch me first!"

Bang!

"Xiao Yu!"

Kapitel 39: Chen Ran’s Parents

Just as Xiao Xiaohui was about to run outside, he bumped into someone. He fell with his butt to the ground.

"Xiao Yu!" Seeing the person he bumped into, Xiao Xiaohui and the others called out in joy.

"Sis!" Xiao Lingye was exceptionally happy when he saw his sister. "Why didn't you inform us you're coming back? We could go fetch you!" The young man snatched the luggage from Xiao Lingyu's hands and carried it into the house. As he carried the luggage, he looked behind Xiao Lingyu and asked with confusion, "Sis, where is Brother Ran? Didn't he come back with you?"

Everyone in the village knew that Chen Ran and Xiao Lingyu were a couple. They were not yet engaged, so Xiao Lingye didn't refer to Chen Ran as his brother-in-law.

Chen Qiuying also looked around and asked in confusion, "That's right, Yu 'Er, didn't Chen Ran come back with you?"

Xiao Lingyu's expression changed with the mention of Chen Ran. She announced calmly, "Mom, I broke up with Chen Ran. Don't mention him in front of me again!"

The others looked at each other and agreed that Xiao Lingyu's sudden return must have something to do with Chen Ran.

Liu Chunhua was very observant. She grabbed Xiao Xiaohui out the door. She turned around and said, "Second Sister, I'm sure you and Ye 'Er have many things to catch up with Yu 'Er. We won't disturb your family reunion."

"Okay, Chunhua. See you later." Chen Qiuying nodded. This was family affairs, so Liu Chunhua excused herself.

After Liu Chunhua and Xiao Xiaohui left, Chen Qiuying's expression immediately changed. She ordered Xiao Lingyu, "Get in, and we'll talk!" Then she turned to Xiao Lingye, "Ye 'Er, go to the fields and get your father!"

"Yes!" Xiao Lingye wouldn't go against the head of the house, his mother.

After he placed Xiao Lingyu's luggage, he raced out. As he passed his sister, he whispered, "Sis, no matter what happens, I'm on your side. I'll go get help for you!"

The help was Father Xiao.

Mother Xiao frowned when she saw the siblings mumble to each other. She coughed and said, "Xiao Lingye, what are you doing? Hurry up to look for your father!"

"Yes!" Xiao Lingye immediately turned around and replied. Then, he quickly ran out.

Once Xiao Lingyu exited, Mother Xiao asked with a serious expression, "Tell me, what happened between you and Chen Ran?"

Mother Xiao knew her daughter well. If there were nothing serious, Xiao Lingyu wouldn't opt for a break-up. After all, Xiao Lingyu and Chen Ran had been in love since junior high. At the time, Mother Xiao was very against this because she worried a relationship would ruin Xiao Lingyu's studies. Mother Xiao beat and scolded Xiao Lingyu, but the girl insisted on being with Chen Ran. Xiao Lingyu promised that her study would not be affected.

In the end, Mother and Father Xiao relented. However, Mother Xiao did warn Xiao Lingyu that they were not allowed to do anything unless they got married. Or else they would disown Xiao Lingyu.

Thankfully, Xiao Lingyu lived up to her words. When she was dating Chen Ran, her results were still top of the class. Chen Ran and Xiao Lingyu were the first and second place scorers, and they entered a famous university with excellent results together.

Chen Ran and Xiao Lingyu's junior high didn't approve of the relationship between students so young. However, since both Chen Ran and Xiao Lingyu did so well in class and exams, the staff chose to close an eye.

Later, this pair of young lovers even made their school proud. They got into a great university together.

Throughout university, Chen Ran and Xiao Lingyu maintained a loving relationship.

So, how did all those years of relationship shatter after two years in the work field?

Xiao Lingyu did not hide anything. She said calmly, "He cheated on me, so we broke up."

Xiao Lingyu didn't go into details because she didn't want her mother to worry. Mother Xiao was about to ask for more when a loud shout from outside startled them.

"Chen Qiuying, get out of here now!"

Mother Xiao frowned. She glanced at Xiao Lingyu and said sternly, "Don't go out yet. I'll go take a look!"

Just moments ago, her daughter told her she had broken up with Chen Ran. And now Chen Ran's parents came to find her. Perhaps they had known about the break-up.

However, these were Chen Ran's parents. They would side with Chen Ran no matter what.

Xiao Lingyu nodded. She entered her room.

Chen Qiuying walked out of the house and saw eight people standing in her courtyard. The two people in the lead were relatively thin and small. They were in their fifties or sixties, but they were dressed in gaudy clothes. They were showing off.

These two were Chen Ran's parents, Chen Dahua and Lan Erying.

When Lan Erying saw Chen Qiuying, she demanded arrogantly, "Chen Qiuying, why are you so slow? Do you know how long we've been waiting for you?"

In Chen Qiuying's eyes, Chen Ran was the best man in the world. Xiao Lingyu must have collected plenty of karma in her previous life to catch the attention of her son.

Chen Ran's parents had stated their demand for an exorbitant amount of dowry. At the very least, Xiao Lingyu's parents had to provide them with a shop and a house in town. They also wanted a car. They didn't ask for the best car, only one around 100,000 RMB. Despite all these, Chen Ran's parents thought they were being kind to Xiao Lingyu's parents.

After all, their son, Chen Ran, was a manager at a large company. He had a high salary. Xiao Lingyu only had to enjoy luxury after she married Chen Ran. 

Therefore, ever since Chen Ran and Xiao Lingyu got together, Chen Ran's parents had been going around talking big. They said they would not allow Xiao Lingyu to marry Chen Ran unless the dowry was a shop, a house, and a car.

The Xiao Family was incensed when they heard this.

Thankfully, Xiao Lingyu's parents were reasonable people.

They saw how happy Xiao Lingyu was with Chen Ran. Furthermore, Chen Ran also promised them that he didn't need that much dowry from them. He only needed Xiao Lingyu.

That was why the Xiao Family did not counter anything the Chen Family said.

The Chen Family, though, took this as a sign of surrender. They believed Xiao Lingyu had no one else to marry other than Chen Ran. Therefore, the Chen Family always acted superior before the Xiao Family. 

In the past, Chen Qiuying didn't want to argue with these people for the sake of her daughter. But now that her daughter had broken up with Chen Ran, she did not need to be polite with them anymore.

Mother Xiao took in their arrogant appearance and sneered, "Lan Erying, are you the empress? Why should I hurry out to welcome you? Who do you think you are?"

The Chen Family, "..."
