Chapter 9 Shooting yourself in the foot
In her previous life, she only lived until the late 1980s and died. She herself had no idea about the future, but she finished reading an entire book before her rebirth. Through the author's perspective, she knew everything.
The society of the future will develop very well. Every household will live in a high-rise building, everyone will have a car, and everyone will have meat for every meal and new clothes to wear every day.
There are also mobile phones and computers. No matter how far apart two people are, as long as they have a mobile phone and a computer, they can see each other and chat face to face, just like they are next to each other.
She must try her best to live until that time and live a life like that.
After coming out of the post office, Wen Xi quietly put the stamps into the system warehouse, and then walked towards the supply and marketing cooperative. At this time, there were obviously fewer people in the supply and marketing cooperative than before. She first took a look around and learned about the things sold at each counter, and then went to the back to queue up.
While waiting in line, she took out some tickets from the system warehouse. Everyone in her family treated her well, but her second brother treated her the best. Every month after receiving his salary, he would give her all the tickets and part of the money. It can be said that Wen Xi has never lacked money since her second brother started working.
When Wenxi went to the countryside, he took a lot of things from home. In fact, there were not many things he lacked, but nowadays in the countryside, interpersonal communication is very important.
If you don't want to be isolated and helpless, you have to get along with the villagers.
So Wenxi weighed several kilograms of cheap fruit candies. With these things, he could get along well with the children in the village, and he would have more little helpers.
Afterwards, Wenxi bought a bag of brown sugar, a portion of peach cakes, four padlocks, three pairs of yellow shoes for work, three pairs of work gloves, and three pairs of boots. This is the central and southern part of the country, and there are leeches in the farmland. He had been bitten in his previous life, so he had to be fully prepared in this life.
After buying the things, Wen Xi did not stay in the supply and marketing cooperative, but walked out of the cooperative carrying the things. As soon as he came out, he saw an old woman with a headscarf covering her head and a sallow face at the entrance of the alley across the street. She was holding a little girl tightly in one hand and the other hand on the little girl's face, but it seemed more like she was covering the little girl's mouth.
The little girl was dressed beautifully and cleanly, wearing delicate little leather shoes. One could tell at a glance that she was not something a poor family like the old woman could afford to support; she must have come from a wealthy family.
Wen Xi immediately understood that this must be a human trafficker.
"System, system, we found human traffickers ahead, what should we do?" Wen Xi is unarmed and is definitely no match for the traffickers. If she reports to the police now, it will be too late. If she follows the traffickers, she might get involved as well.
In this life, she still wants to live well!
Watching the old woman hunched over and continuing to run into the alley, looking back to check the situation as she ran, Wen Xi hurriedly and carefully followed her from a distance.
"Host, watch me." The system responded and then took action.
Wen Xi didn't see it make a move. She only saw the old woman fall to the ground with a thud. There was no sound at all. She must have fainted.
The little girl in his arms also fell out, rolled over on the ground twice, then sat up, with a look of confusion on her face, and then burst into tears of fear.
Wen Xi hurried forward, helped the little girl up from the ground, and gave her a quick check, but didn't find any obvious problems. It seemed that someone had just abducted her and hadn't had time to take her home, so they didn't have time to do anything with her.
"Little sister, do you know this person?" Wen Xi asked, pointing at the old woman on the ground.
It would be bad if someone was wrongly accused.
But her intuition told her that there was no relationship between the two people at all.
The little girl stopped crying, looked towards the old woman's face, and then shook her head in panic, "I don't know her, she was the one who caught me, she is a bad person..."
Seeing the panic of the little girl, Wen Xi quickly took her into her arms, patted her back gently, and comforted her, "It's okay, it's okay, sister has already dealt with her, we will send her to the police station later and put her in jail, so that she can never hurt others again, okay?"
The little girl sobbed, "Okay."
At this moment, a young man in police uniform suddenly appeared at the entrance of the alley. The man was breathing slightly, and the sweat on his forehead looked greasy in the sunlight.
Wen Xi was just worrying about not being able to go to the Public Security Bureau when a patrolling police officer appeared. He hurriedly carried the little girl over and whispered, "Comrade Public Security, a human trafficker was found here. He just used drugs to knock this little girl unconscious..."
Wen Xi looked up, and her eyes were immediately attracted. The man in front of her was handsome, with a high nose bridge, deep eyes that seemed to look at everything with deep affection, facial features as clear as sculptures, wheat-colored skin that looked healthy and sexy, and those long legs that looked powerful and explosive.
Although Wenxi is still young and doesn't plan to find a man, it's okay to admire handsome guys, right? After all, everyone loves beauty!
Wen Xi was looking at the man, and the man was naturally looking at Wen Xi as well. He couldn't even look away. When he realized it, he forced himself to regain his senses. It was really incredible that someone could make him unable to look away without anyone noticing.
"Dad, Lili was almost kidnapped by a bad guy just now." The little girl stepped forward and hugged the man's legs, crying in fear, "It was this sister who saved me, otherwise Lili would never see Dad again."
Wen Xi didn't expect that he was actually married. No wonder he looked so mature. However, people in this era get married very early, with men getting married at the age of seventeen or eighteen, so it was normal for him to be married. After all, he looked good and had a good job, so many people wanted to marry him and many people wanted to introduce him to other people.
Yan Zheng asked Yan Lili to call him Dad instead of Uncle when they were around lesbians, but when she called him Dad today, he felt like there was a blockage in his chest.
It's really like shooting yourself in the foot.
Yan Zheng squatted down, hugged Yan Lili, and said softly, "Lili, you stay with your sister for a while, and uncle will go catch the bad guy, okay? Otherwise, if the bad guy wakes up and runs away, we won't be able to catch him later."
Yan Lili wiped her tears with her hand and nodded with a sob, "Okay."
Yan Zheng took Yan Lili to Wen Xi and thanked him sincerely, "Comrade, thank you for saving my niece. You saved not only my niece, but also our whole family."
My eldest brother and his wife work at a research institute. They only have one child, Lili. They leave her at home in the care of her parents. If someone successfully kidnaps Lili, her parents will blame themselves and feel guilty for the rest of their lives. They might even become seriously ill and...
He didn't dare to think further, so he was really grateful to the little girl in front of him.
