Chapter 1909 Great Fortune
On the other end of the phone was a pleasant baritone voice.
"Hello, Ms. Zheng, I am Pei Jian."
Zheng Xuemei was completely numb.
Two minutes later, she hung up the phone and looked at Caibao blankly: "He answered."
"what?"
Pei Jian just told me that he would help me apply for a retrial.
Cheng Xuri quickly explained to Caibao what a retrial meant.
The little guy listened intently, nodding occasionally and making "oh oh" sounds.
After Cheng Xuri finished explaining, Leo asked curiously, "Sister Caibao, did you understand?"
Anyway, he didn't understand.
"No."
Everyone fell.
I didn't understand, but I pretended to be so convincing.
but--
Caibao looked at Zheng Xuemei and asked her, "Auntie, are you happy?"
Zheng Xuemei nodded happily, tears streaming down her face: "I'm so happy, I'm so happy."
Although Chen Chuan didn't ultimately take her case, it was Pei Jian, someone she wouldn't have dared to even dream of back then. To put it bluntly, in her heart, Pei Jian's status was definitely higher than Chen Chuan's.
After all, Chen Chuan's claims of being incredibly capable only exist in magazines. Who knows if the foreigners are just ignorant and unsophisticated?
But Pei Jian's achievements in Hai Province are undeniable.
The top lawyer favored by the wealthy in Hai Province—how could a poor person afford to hire him? But now, he's contacting her, offering to be her lawyer, and most importantly… for free.
What's the difference between this and a "pig butchering scam"?
The pie was so big that she was hesitant to take a bite.
Is that really Pei Jian? Could it be someone impersonating her to deceive her?
However, he arranged to meet her, and once they met, he would know whether it was true or not. Anyway, she was already in a bad situation, so there was no point in lying to her.
Regardless of whether it's real or fake, she was treated with the utmost kindness and generosity regarding the treasure.
With tears in her eyes, Zheng Xuemei said to her, "Once I've finished things here, I'll come to Hecheng to find you. From now on, I'll be your servant, and the same goes for my children!"
Don't say she's not a good mother, letting her child work as a servant for someone else.
If they don't avenge their great grudge, their whole family will be worse than cattle and horses. They'll be acting crazy every day. If this goes on for a long time, who knows if they're faking it or if they're really crazy?
If you receive a great favor from someone, what's a little servitude? You could do anything, even be a chicken or a duck!
Caibao shook her head: "No need, Auntie, I told you, you don't need to do anything."
She took out a good luck charm and gave it to her, saying, "Auntie, you must take good care of yourself from now on. This world is a wonderful place."
She likes this aunt and hopes she can be happy every day.
Leo handed Zheng Xuemei the painting he had just finished in Baishi Village.
"Beautiful lady, the name of this painting is 'Rebirth.' I hope you can start anew, just like the painting."
Everyone's eyes fell on the painting at the same time.
It seems...it looks like...a woman throwing a punch at the sea. Most importantly, the woman...is naked...
Even though it's an abstract painting, everyone can tell the difference.
The butt is right there in front of you.
Zheng Xuemei recognized it; it was her own buttocks, with a heart-shaped birthmark on it.
She crumpled the drawing into a ball with a blank expression, blew hard against her nose, and then threw the ball of paper out of the car window!
Leo was dumbfounded.
His art, his inspiration, his!
"How could you do this..."
"Snapped!"
Zheng Xuemei slapped him: "You scoundrel!! Shut up!"
She can take her clothes off, and he can look! But if he paints it and dances it in front of her, that's just being a jerk, and she can beat him up! Don't talk to her about art; a shrew doesn't see art, only lust.
Leo covered his face, shut his mouth, and looked aggrieved.
Zheng Xuemei looked at Caibao: "You continue."
Treasure: "Huh?"
Zheng Xuemei handed her the amulet: "Here, take this."
Caibao readily handed her the talisman again, saying, "Auntie, I hope you'll be happy from now on."
Zheng Xuemei got off the bus crying.
She received the greatest kindness of her life from a complete stranger, and suddenly she reconciled with the world and stopped hating it.
Originally, she thought that after dealing with Zheng Yuguo's family, she would go all the way and put rat poison in the wells of all the families in the village who had mocked her and stood by.
Since she doesn't want to live anymore, then none of them should live either. Anyway, none of them were good people, so they deserve to die.
But now, she doesn't think so anymore.
Her life is precious, and so are everyone else's. No one has an obligation to help you, just as helping her wasn't an obligation, but an act of kindness.
No one should die just because they're not kind enough. Even if someone has a wife, children, and parents, and has no other reason to be unwilling to help, that's not a reason for them to die.
Zheng Xuemei herself didn't know that her values, which had been distorted by long-term suffering, were slowly returning to normal because of a child's kindness.
As a result of Caibao's good deeds, Baishi Village escaped the fate of almost being completely wiped out.
This must be what they mean by great destiny, right?

Caibao's trip to White Stone Village took a full five days.
She returned from Hai Province laden with seafood, bringing back a ton of gifts for her parents, relatives, and friends. Items that are usually ridiculously expensive in dried goods stores were practically free in Baishi Village.
The little guy is very clever. He collected a whole truckload of goods from one end of the village to the other. The villagers were happy, and they were happy too.
Most importantly, she's also good at bargaining.
The current Caibao is no longer the silly child who would haggle higher and higher. She follows her father around to buy groceries every day and has long since learned his haggling skills. If she really can't get a lower price, she will always ask someone to give her something extra.
Anyway, no matter what, I have to give it away, even if it's just a hoe from home. I can't waste anything that can be taken for free.
Finally, Zheng Shou's Hummer couldn't fit everything, so they rented a Lalamove to load it in.
Heaven knows, besides seafood, Caibao also took a bunch of other random things, including fishing nets, fishing rods and all kinds of fishing gear, and even winnowing baskets and brooms.
They insisted on having the goods "delivered" to them when they received them.
As for why you asked her for these things? I don't know, but why not take them? She's Chen Chuan's daughter, just like him.
When they drove back to Hecheng in a grand procession, before they even reached the entrance of Zigui, they saw Fang Shiyou and the others guarding the gate, eagerly waiting for them.
Upon spotting the familiar car, he was overjoyed and quickly ran over.
The treasure lowered the car window.
"Master!! Master!!"
"Friend, there's no room left!"
Fang Shiyou: ...
Come to my house!
The rest of what he said was unintelligible. Huang Haohui stepped on the gas and drove into the residential area.
The Lalamove team followed them in. Normally, they wouldn't be allowed in, but Caibao's face was the master key.
Who in Zigui Property Management doesn't know Caibao? Who doesn't know Chen Chuan?
Who dares to stop?
Besides, Caibao was smiling so sweetly.
"I'm back, Uncle! I brought you gifts!"
