Chapter 158 The trafficked girl
The night has not yet faded in the morning of early winter. The car is driving slowly on the bumpy road, and a hint of coldness drifts into the car through the window.
The car was very quiet. It was Lu He's first time to drive in conditions of low visibility, and he kept tensing up and looking ahead. Lu Zhenghai sat on the passenger seat and dozed off.
In the back row, Ning Xi, Zhang Ying, and Ning Xiuhe squeezed into the same seat. Secretary Lu, Wang Xiuqin, and Lu Bei squeezed into the back seat. Lu Lin and Lu Xiaoyu sat on small stools, and one climbed on Ning's bed. Xiuhe was fast asleep on his lap, and the other one was fast asleep on Secretary Lu's lap.
Ning Xi sat in front of the window bored, watching the scenery passing by outside the window.
In fact, there is no scenery outside the window. The bumpy muddy road is surrounded by withered weeds and rows of bare trees. Some branches still have a few withered leaves hanging on them. A cold wind is whistling past. There are only a few of them. The leaves fell one after another.
Just a muddy road can tell that Jiang City was poor and backward at this time.
After undergoing one reform after another, it has finally become a second-tier city that many people yearn for and is suitable for a slow life.
“Xiao Xi.”
"Well!" Hearing Wang Xiuqin's cry, Ning Xi turned her head and looked at Wang Xiuqin, "What's wrong, Second Aunt?"
“It’s Chinese New Year, will Xiaonan come back?”
this…
She never asked Lu Nan, nor did Lu Nan mention it.
"He probably won't come back. His legs and feet are not very convenient right now. It's not convenient for him to ride in a car alone. Moreover, he has just returned to the army for a few months. I'm afraid he won't be allowed to take annual leave again."
Wang Xiuqin nodded to show that he understood, then paused and asked, "How is his leg?"
"Much better." Ning Xi also asked Lu Nan several times how his legs were doing. According to her estimation, Lu Nan's legs should be almost healed by now, but Lu Nan said that he still needs external force to stand up now.
I don’t know whether he miscalculated that the pills were not effective enough or whether he was unable to stand up without the help of external force because of the lack of acupuncture time.
“I really want to see that kid stand up again.”
Ning Xi smiled. Why didn't she want to be by his side, accompanying him in his recovery and standing up with him?
The sky was gradually getting brighter. Lu He drove into the Zhouxiang Comprehensive Market. Lu He had accompanied Lu Xu to deliver goods several times, and he easily found the Zhenghua Garment Factory behind the market.
The new Zhenghua Garment Factory is very large. The gate alone is twice as big as the previous one. It looks very grand from the outside.
“Squeak!” With a harsh sound, the van suddenly stopped in place.
The people in the back row who were still talking and sleeping fell over like those in front of them, following the inertia.
Ning Xi reacted quickly. When she was about to hit the front seat, she quickly put her hand against the front seat to avoid hitting herself.
"ah!"
“Bang!”
Others were not so lucky. Lu Zhenghai was resting with his eyes closed, and before he could react, his head had hit the windshield in front of him.
Zhang Ying, Ning Xiuhe, and the three people in the back row except Lu Bei all crashed into the seats in the front row. Lu Lin and Lu Xiaoyu also fell off their stools.
Lu He didn't care to check the situation of everyone, he put on the handbrake and got out of the car. There was a person lying backward in front of the car. Lu He had only stepped on the brake when he saw this person suddenly rushing out.
Ning Xi checked on Zhang Ying and the others and made sure that everyone was fine. Then she noticed the situation outside the car and walked quickly out of the car.
Lu He did not dare to get too close to the people on the ground. He stood aside and bent down and said, "Hey! How are you?"
Ning Xi walked forward, "What's going on, second brother?" "I don't know! This person suddenly came out." Seeing more and more people watching the excitement around him, Brother Lu hurriedly said, "I didn't hit him. ,real."
“Let me take a look first.” Ning Xi stepped forward.
Ning Xiuhe has already got out of the car. She has been out all year round and has seen all kinds of people. She hurriedly stopped her, "Farewell, Xi'er. What if it's someone with bad intentions?"
Unfortunately, she spoke a few seconds late. Ning Xi had already knelt down next to the man. She observed the man first.
Lying on the ground was a woman. She was very thin. Her face was only about the size of a palm. Her face was a little dirty. It looked like she hadn't washed it for a while. She was wearing a patched, fat and colorless cotton-padded jacket. , there is still this unpleasant sour smell wafting from the body.
She opened the woman's eyelids and looked again and again, then grabbed the woman's hand and felt her pulse.
While Ning Xi was examining the woman, Lu Xu and the others also ran out after hearing the sound. Seeing Ning Xi checking her pulse, Zhou Hui hurriedly asked, "How is it? Is she okay?"
"It's okay, I must be hungry." Ning Xi just heard the woman's stomach growl. "Auntie, help me get some water and food first."
"Okay." Zhou Hui responded and hurriedly went in and brought out a bowl of water and some food. He called two female workers and directed the female workers to help the woman up and give her some water.
“Cough cough cough!” The woman choked on the water and coughed violently several times. She slowly opened her eyes. When she saw people surrounding her, she shrank back in panic.
"You don't have to be afraid, we are not bad people." Ning Xi comforted her and handed the bowl in her hand to the woman. "You are hungry! Eat something."
When the woman saw the food, she rushed forward to **** the bowl away without any hesitation, grabbed the food in the bowl and stuffed it into her mouth.
After the woman finished the food in the bowl, Ning Xi asked aloud, "What's your name? Where are you from? Did you get into any trouble?"
The woman does not look like a beggar, she is probably in some kind of trouble. Since they are in trouble, if you can help, you can help her, it will be a blessing for the two children.
The woman looked at Ning Xi for a long time, and seemed to be sure that Ning Xi was not a bad guy before she whispered, "I...my name is Yun Zixian. I was abducted and managed to escape. I want to take the train home. I passed by When I was here, the staff on the train found out that I didn’t have a ticket and chased me off the train.”
Another poor woman.
Probably because of her past life experience, she felt more compassion for the people who were abducted. Ning Xi raised her head and looked at Lu Xu and others, "Brother, can I..."
Before Ning Xi could finish speaking, Lu Xu had already said with a smile, "Take her in! Since we are destined to meet her, please help if you can."
Ning Xi lowered her head and said with a smile, "Come back with us first, take a shower and eat something. I will take you to buy a ticket later."
“You want to buy a ticket for me?” Yun Zixian asked in disbelief.
“Well! Let’s go!” Ning Xi stretched out her hand towards Yun Zixian.
Yun Zixian hesitated for a few seconds and put her dirty hand in Ning Xi's. As Ning Xi stood up, she let Ning Xi lead her into Zhenghua Garment Factory. Zhou would let two female workers take her. Yun Zixian went to the staff dormitory at the back to take a shower and got her a new set of clothes.
Chen Jing brought a set of clothes, "Xiao Xi, you should go and wash them too. You are pregnant and your immunity is weak."
Ning Xi did not refuse and followed Chen Jing to the bathroom.
A lot of people have come to the factory, most of them are Lu Xu's customers. Lu Xu chatted with a few people and then went to greet the customers. Zhou Hui and Lu Zhenghua sat with a few people in the yard. chat.
