Reborn in the 80s and Remarrying an Officer, Let the Ungrateful Cry! novel Chapter 234

Chapter 234: Chapter 234: Request

"Sister Wang, are you saying the little girl next door was taken away by her grandmother—the one who so clearly favors boys?"

Wang Xiang nodded. "That’s right. They took her away first thing this morning."

"I think they were supposed to be on yesterday’s train, but they ended up taking the five o’clock one this morning."

"Hao Rong went to see her off himself, and he didn’t even realize his own daughter was gone."

"By the time his wife, Cui Meihong, found out, she rushed after them—but of course, she couldn’t catch up. The train had left long ago."

Fu Mingxue was speechless. "But doesn’t that old woman hate her granddaughter? Why would she take the child away?"

Wang Xiang pursed her lips. "Who knows! I bet she’s up to no good."

Just then, Mrs. Fu spoke up. "She definitely took her granddaughter back so she could have some leverage over the couple. Without the granddaughter, how could she control her son and daughter-in-law?"

Wang Xiang nodded quickly. "Right, right, right, that’s what I think too. She’s just awful. That poor little girl is going to have a rough time in her hands."

"So what’s the plan now?" Fu Mingxue asked curiously. "Are they going back to their village to find her?"

"I don’t know. Hao Rong can’t, though. I saw him rush back only to leave for a mission right away. Cui Meihong is heading to the school now, but I don’t know if she’s going to work or to ask for time off."

"I heard she just passed the exam to become a teacher! If she has to ask for time off right after getting the job, it could put her position in jeopardy."

The school was only hiring because they were short on teachers in the first place.

If she takes leave, they’d just have to find someone else, wouldn’t they? They can’t let the students’ classes be delayed, after all.

Fu Mingxue was a little surprised by this.

’Becoming a teacher at the school is a great opportunity, though.’

’But this really puts her in a tough spot.’

"Mom, I’m going to get some breakfast." She had slept in and woken up late; it was already past seven.

Mrs. Fu said quickly, "Go on, hurry up and eat."
