What neither Qin Tian nor Han Yao expected was that it took them more than four and nearly five hours to travel from Wanjin County to Qingshui Village.
And 80% of the whole journey was country roads. Fortunately, the car Han Yao drove this time was an SUV with a higher chassis. Otherwise, they might not have been able to reach Qingshui Village and would have been forced to stop halfway.
When Qin Tian and Han Yao arrived near Qingshui Village, it was already around six o'clock in the evening, and it was almost dark.
Han Yao parked the car at the end of a muddy dirt road and said, "Qingshui Village is ahead. The car can't drive in. We have to walk in!"
"Huh, the location of Qingshui Village is really unusual!"
Qin Tian let out a breath, opened the door and jumped out of the car.
After sitting for so long, the most important thing was the bumps all the way, which made his butt hurt.
Afterwards, Han Yao got off the car and the two walked along a trail at the end of the road into Qingshui Village.
Qingshui Village is surrounded by mountains. Because the village is extremely remote and located in the mountains, and there are no roads leading to the village, Qingshui Village is a notoriously poor village in Wanjin County.
There are a total of hundreds of households in Qingshui Village, half of whom have gone out to work. Those who remain in the village are basically the old, weak, sick and disabled who cannot go out.
Qin Tian and Han Yao walked on the path and looked at Qingshui Village, which was almost all low-rise houses made of bricks and tiles, and even bamboo and mud houses. Even Qin Tian, who was also born in the countryside, frowned.
Qingshui Village is backward and the level of poverty is too much. Even in their hometown village, every household has built a building.
As for Han Yao, who grew up in the city, she was extremely shocked when she saw the situation in Qingshui Village.
I am amazed that there is such a backward place in the world!!!
The two entered the village, and when Han Yao was about to ask Meng Xiaoli where she lived, a burst of noise reached their ears.
" Meng Xiaoli, let me tell you, if you dare to run away today, I will break your legs!"
"Mom, are you my biological mother? Are you going to force me to death?"
"Sister, just promise mom, don't make her angry, our mom is not in good health to begin with!"
"Ah, Mom, let me go, let me go..."
Qin Tian and Han Yao looked at each other and immediately followed the direction of the sound source.
After a while, the two came to a house built of bamboo and mud, and saw Meng Xiaoli quarreling with a man and a woman.
Among them, the man was in his twenties and relatively tall. Qin Tian recognized him at a glance as one of the men who dragged Meng Xiaoli into the van in the afternoon.
The other woman was thin and stooped, with a sallow face. She was wearing old clothes and her hair was messy. She was in her fifties or sixties, but she looked like an old lady in her seventies or eighties.
Through their quarrel, Qin Tian and Han Yao knew that the other party was Meng Xiaoli's mother, Xia Mei.
The man is Meng Xiaoli’s younger brother, Meng Fei.
Approaching the house, Qin Tian saw that in order to prevent Meng Xiaoli from leaving, Xia Mei also attacked Meng Xiaoli and grabbed her hair.
Xia Mei looked like an old lady, but she was very vicious when she moved her hands. Meng Xiaoli had no power to parry and could only scream in pain.
"Sister Meng!"
"stop……"
In this situation, Qin Tian couldn't bear to look at it and immediately shouted.
"What are you doing???"
Han Yao couldn't help but speak out.
The three of them paused and turned to look at Qin Tian and Han Yao.
When Xia Mei and Meng Fei saw Han Yao, Qin Tian keenly noticed that a bright light appeared in their eyes...
Xia Mei first let go of Meng Xiaoli and asked Han Yao, "Who are you?"
Han Yao was about to answer, but before she could open her mouth this time, Meng Xiaoli hurriedly said, "Qin Tian, why are you here? You go quickly, go quickly!"
There was a hint of panic in her voice.
Qin Tian felt it and didn't know why.
But he was not busy thinking so much at this time and asked, "Sister Meng, what's going on? What are your mother and others forcing you to do?"
"My mother, my mother..."
Meng Xiaoli hesitated for a moment, but finally told her, "My mother wants me to lend money to my brother online, but I won't do it!"
Well.
In an instant, Qin Tian and Han Yao's shocked gazes turned to Xia Mei.
Meng Fei saw this and pointed at Qin Tian, "What are you looking at? This is our family matter. Do you still want to meddle in it?"
Immediately afterwards, he said to Meng Xiaoli, "Sister, I'm in trouble now. I asked you to help me borrow some money but you still refuse. You are still not my biological sister!"
"I just can't borrow money online. If I could borrow money myself, I wouldn't have to ask you!"
"Meng Fei, how many times do you want me to tell you that those online loans you asked me to borrow online are all usurious loans. Once I borrow them, I will fall into the same trap as last time. I finally got out this time. Are you going to do it again?"
Want to push me into the sea?"
Meng Xiaoli's eyes were red, and she cried and said to Xia Mei, "Mom, do you know how I came here these past few months? Last time, because I helped Meng Fei borrow the gift money, I was forced to work at the Rainbow Nightclub in the county town. Every day
I have to accompany several men..."
"Mom, if you have such a desire in your heart For my sake, Ding Dian, I beg you, please don’t force me to borrow money online, okay?”
"I was just rescued today, I don't want to get trapped in it again!"
Meng Xiaoli couldn't stop her tears from flowing out. At the end of the sentence, she knelt on the ground, hugged Xia Mei's legs with both hands and begged.
However, no matter how much she begged, Xia Mei folded her hands in front of her chest, always looking indifferent.
"Meng Xiaoli, stop talking nonsense to me. I'm telling you, if you don't come up with 50,000 yuan this time, you will never go out again!"
"I don't have to force you to borrow money online. Then come up with 50,000 yuan yourself. Come up with it..."
She let go of her hands, spread her hands and asked for Meng Xiaoli.
"Wow, how can I still have money now? All my money has been taken away by you a long time ago!"
"Then you're talking nonsense, hurry up and borrow it from the Internet!"
Xia Mei pushed Meng Xiaoli away from her feet again.
Meng Xiaoli stumbled and leaned back. Fortunately, Han Yao caught her in time and did not fall to the ground.
"Miss Meng, stop kneeling, get up quickly..."
Han Yao helped Meng Xiaoli up from the ground.
And listening to their words, Qin Tian finally understood what was going on.
Meng Fei wanted money, and Xia Mei, a mother, asked Meng Xiaoli to lend money to Meng Fei through an online loan.
Xia Mei didn't care at all whether the interest rate of online loans was high or what consequences it would have on Meng Xiaoli after borrowing it.
Even though some time ago, Meng Xiaoli was forced to work at Rainbow Nightclub to pick up customers because she borrowed gift money from Meng Fei, Xia Mei and Meng Fei didn't care at all.
The two of them completely regarded Meng Xiaoli as a tool, a cash withdrawal machine!
