Chapter 1326: The Enemies of the Entire Village
Zhong Jiaxiang suddenly thought of a question: No, Gougou was abducted at more than two years old, how did he become this woman’s godson?
Could it be a trick on him?
Indeed, Tiger Valley has its own rules, which is that each person handles their own family matters; unless someone dies, no one has the right to meddle in other people’s family affairs.
Of course, this does not apply if the person being bullied is your relative.
Could it be that Mengyu felt pity for Gougou and wanted to manage his affairs, so she deliberately claimed Gougou as her godson?
He suddenly looked up at Mengyu: "Miss, when did Gougou become your godson?"
Mengyu looked into Zhong Jiaxiang’s eyes, realizing he was suspicious.
Humph, so what if he’s suspicious? She happened to know Gougou’s background.
Gougou was indeed a bit nervous; he recognized Mengyu as his godmother last night. If they were recognizing godparents after being abducted, the buyer must consent. Therefore, recognizing godparents last night, the Zhong couple might not acknowledge it.
She raised her chin: "When I adopted Gougou, what difference does it make? Or do you think I will adhere to your Tiger Valley’s rules?"
Zhong Jiaxiang felt deflated; yes, this young woman is so formidable, even You Laoer and those people were detained by her, does she need to follow the village’s rules?
Who knew, Mengyu glanced at Gougou and then added: "But I can tell you, Gougou’s real name is Qin Wenju, and his father’s name is Qin Chaowen."
As the buyer, Zhong Jiaxiang naturally knew Gougou’s lineage. Seeing Mengyu openly stating Gougou’s family background, he was even more dispirited: she knows, she knows everything. So, her claim of being Gougou’s godmother must be correct.
He even had a feeling that Mengyu came not to rescue Pi Yuhua but to save Gougou.
Thinking of this possibility, Zhong Jiaxiang shivered; if the villagers found out he bought a foster son and it brought Mengyu, the plague, here, then the consequences...
Sure enough, Mengyu’s next words confirmed his suspicions.
"Honestly, I came this time for Gougou, no, for Wenju, my godson Nan Mengyu. Because I heard from women rescued last time that there was a boy, two or three years old, sold to Tiger Valley, who was being constantly mistreated by the buyer, and surely wouldn’t grow up well.
I asked around and suspected he was my godson Qin Wenju, so I hurriedly came to Tiger Valley. As soon as I saw Gougou, I immediately recognized him as my godson. Moreover, he himself has memories and remembers me as his godmother.
So, my purpose in coming today is to rescue my godson, and dealing with You Laoer and the others is just incidental."
Upon hearing this, the villagers of Tiger Valley shot fiery glances at Zhong Jiaxiang. They blamed him for being inhumane in abusing Gougou and not concealing it, letting the whole village know, otherwise those rescued women wouldn’t have discussed it.
Especially You Laoer, with that Poisoned Knife-like gaze, it almost turned tangible. If eye knives could kill, Zhong Jiaxiang would be suffering from wounds all over.
Zhong Jiaxiang wants to say it wasn’t true, but what can he deny? He did abuse Gougou, and even scolded the neighbors who gave medicine and food to Gougou harshly.
Furthermore, to prevent neighbors from helping Gougou, he retaliated against Zhu Asi who helped Gougou, establishing authority among neighbors. How could those neighbors conceal his abuse of the foster son?
