Chapter 491: Chapter 0491 End of Training 3_1

The little fellow actually nodded, and as soon as his mother finished wiping his bottom, he eagerly followed Father Lu outside to see the mules.

Father Lu immediately held his grandson in his arms. "Acheng, help your aunt with her luggage."

As the father-in-law, and Feng Qingxue being his daughter-in-law, with his son not around, although they were accompanied by his one-year-old grandson, Father Lu deliberately asked Guan Cheng to come along to receive Feng Qingxue and her son, in order to avoid prying eyes and potential gossip.

Guan Cheng poked Xibao’s chubby face, "I’m on it."

"No need!" Feng Qingxue and Wang Cuilan came out carrying three large bundles. Their summer clothes were thin, and apart from bedding and other home essentials, there wasn’t much else. Their heavier clothes had already been washed and gradually brought home. Out of the three bundles, two were full of Xibao’s clothing, shoes, diapers, and plush tiger toys.

Guan Cheng stepped forward to take them, and they were indeed light.

Just as he was packing items on the mule cart, Guan Cheng turned around to see a middle-aged woman hurriedly rushing from the back alleyway. She suddenly knelt before Feng Qingxue and Wang Cuilan, "Xiaoxue, Xiaoxue, I’m your own aunt, your own aunt. Please, ask Mayor Cheng to help my husband, he cannot be in trouble! He cannot be in trouble!"

She clung to Feng Qingxue’s legs, preventing Feng Qingxue from escaping.

Father Lu promptly turned his back, holding Xibao, so that Wang Fengmei wouldn’t see his face. Even if Wang Fengmei did see him, she likely wouldn’t recognize him, yet he remained cautious.

In the past, he was the pampered young master of a rich landlord’s family, handsome and charming.

At present, he was just a bad character undergoing labor reformation in the cattle shed. Under the sun and wind, he now resembled any other old peasant in the countryside. What’s more, it had been two to three decades and his appearance was no longer the same as before.

Feng Qingxue gently pushed Wang Fengmei by the shoulder, causing her to immediately sit down on the ground.

"Oh my, you really have a sense of humor. Would it matter to me whether a stranger is in trouble or not? Please don’t use the status of my aunt to pressure me. As a matter of fact, we have only met once, there’s hardly any emotional attachment! Furthermore, everyone knows that the city committee officers are all upright and honest, adhering to the spirit of enduring hardship and diligence in performing their duties. Are you asking me to plead with Mayor Cheng, to breach the law for his own benefit? That’s truly audacious!"

Feng Qingxue’s words were sharp, like a knife, leaving the other party’s face stinging with their harshness.

She stepped back two paces, avoiding Wang Fengmei’s attempt to cling to her legs again. Looking at the curious residents from the backstreet and the pedestrians who had stopped to listen, she berated even more harshly: "It is the discipline inspection department that conducts the investigation into Commissar Zhao’s matter! What use would it be to find us? How could we interfere? If Commissar Zhao remains upright, the discipline inspection department will surely clear his name!"

It was precisely because she feared that he might not have acted upright, Wang Fengmei was desperately seeking help. She had racked her brains and saw that only Feng Qingxue might have influence with Cheng Baoguo. As long as Cheng Baoguo stepped in, the discipline inspection department would certainly give some face and mildly deal with Zhao Yide.

"Xiaoxue, I beg you, I plead with you. For the sake of you and your mother sharing the same bloodline, save your uncle!" Wang Fengmei sat on the ground, her face stained with tears and looked utterly distressed. "Your cousin is now bedridden and can’t move at all. I can’t let your uncle get into trouble! If he does, what will my daughter and I do?"
