Chapter 1582
"You are right, Xiao Jian knows Pei Yanzhou, and he was one of the suspects who kidnapped Pei Yanzhou."
Father Mu nodded with a wry smile.
Mu Ruoqi's eyes widened, her whole body seemed to be stunned, and then her breathing became rapid.
"Dad, you...don't lie to me."
Her voice faltered.
Can't believe the truth I heard.
"Don't tell me that you were also involved in the kidnapping case back then." Mu Ruoqi held Mu's father's arm tightly.
"I'm not involved."
Mu's father shook his head, but the next words made Mu Ruoqi almost collapse.
"Listen to me, not long after Xiao Jian was arrested, the new leader made the management of the place worse and worse. We couldn't get any jobs at all. Then I went to work in Shishan County, where I met your mother. Then there were you and Xuetong. Your mother had to take care of you at home at that time. The pressure at home was all on me. I had to help at the construction site during the day, and at night I had to work part-time at a supper shop owned by a relative at home. Then, I saw Xiao Jian again."
Recalling what happened in the past, Mu's father looked responsible, "We haven't seen each other for many years. I almost didn't recognize him. He was doing very well and was wearing a thick gold chain. He looked very rich at first glance. I At the time, I couldn’t figure out why I was worse off than someone who had been in prison when I worked so hard.
I wanted Xiao Jian to take care of me, so I took the initiative to talk to him, but he looked down on me at all.
Many times when I was bringing food to the private room, they would suddenly quiet down and become very alert. I always felt that they were quite mysterious.
Not long ago, one time when you were in poor health, your grandma told you about a wild prescription, saying that eating wild Polygonum multiflorum was useful. I went back to the mountains in my hometown to dig, but I didn’t expect to see Xiao Jian and his gang wandering around in the mountains. They As he walked, he said, "Brother Long, this place I chose is good. I'm sure that after I kidnap that kid, no matter how hard his family searches, they won't be able to find him in this remote place."
Father Mu looked at his pale-faced daughter, "I was stunned at that time. You said how could I dare to come out and recognize someone? You scared me so much that I quickly hid in the grass. I heard a rough idea of what they said. I Only then did I realize that Xiao Jian and his gang were engaged in kidnapping and extortion. This time, it seemed that someone had hired them to kidnap a very wealthy young man. From what I heard at the time, it sounded like this rich young man had hundreds of millions in his family. assets."
Hearing this, Mu Ruoqi roughly understood, and she murmured, "So you didn't save Yan Zhou by accident at all, you did..."
Mu's father closed his eyes and said, "Ruoqi, you should understand how hard we suffered when we were children. Your mother and I were not hardworking enough. We worked from early in the morning to late at night, but no matter how hard we worked, some people could always take it easy. I made a lot of money. I thought at the time, I didn’t do bad things. If I could find an opportunity to secretly rescue someone and send him home, the billionaire’s family would definitely compensate me a lot of money. If nothing else happened, You can get one house."
"But you didn't go back with Yan Zhou..." Mu Ruoqi said.
"I can't help it, he has lost his memory."
Mu's father smiled bitterly, "He didn't know where his home was or who he was. At first, I regretted it a little. I also asked the police to inquire. In fact, I didn't know who lost the child. The Internet was not developed at that time. When I was at a loss what to do, I suddenly saw an article in the newspaper. It told the story of a childless couple who kindly adopted a child. The child succeeded and was admitted to Peking University. After graduation, he bought a house and a car for his adoptive parents. Bought a pension insurance...
After reading it, I immediately thought about it. After all, Yan Zhou is seven or eight years old, and he is a boy. He does not need my care. I only need to be responsible for his three meals a day, and there is usually someone at home to help with the work.
And when he grows up and establishes a deep relationship with us, he will repay us when he grows up.
