Chapter 261: 261 The Photo that flew away_1

The content of He Dongxue’s letter wasn’t much, just talking about her studies and also asking on behalf of her father the questions he had previously asked over the phone, such as how she was doing living alone in the capital. However, at the end of the letter, He Dongxue mentioned something that left He Zhilan unsure whether to laugh or feel sympathy.

The granddaughter of Sanpozi, who was involved in child trafficking, was lured away by someone with a piece of candy.

He Zhilan remembered that the aunt who had sold her to the village was named Sanpozi. Sanpozi had many children, however, only one son survived to adulthood and got married. Unfortunately, her son and daughter-in-law died young, both passing away on the same day when their daughter was less than a year old. Sanpozi treasured her one and only granddaughter as if she was her life. Surprisingly, the granddaughter who was now eight years old, was abducted.

He Zhilan didn’t know whether this could be called karma. In her younger years, Sanpozi sold many children, whether kidnapped or unwanted by their families, she sold them all, recognizing only money and not feelings. Now in her old age, her only granddaughter couldn’t escape being abducted.

However, was it cruel to let an eight-year-old girl pay for Sanpozi’s sins?

He Zhilan knew she was lucky. She was fortunate to meet a family like the He Family, who not only treated her well but loved her immensely. But how many people in this world were as lucky as her? Those children who had lost their homes at a young age, yet could still experience fatherly love and warmth from the world.

As for those children who were seen begging on the streets regardless of wind and rain, or burning sun, with despair written on their blackened faces, whose missing children were they?

The letter also mentioned that after learning her granddaughter was deceived and taken by a stranger, Sanpozi reported to the police. Unfortunately, the person who led Sanpozi’s granddaughter away was an out-of-towner, a face nobody recognized, nor did anyone remember what they looked like. Thus, the police could do nothing.

Liang Jing wrote more about this in her letter, only briefly mentioning Sanpozi’s granddaughter’s abduction, mainly about the reaction of Father He upon hearing this news.

Actually, He Zhilan also knew that Father He was a very kind-hearted person. Even though he knew Sanpozi herself was a child trafficker, as a father, he would always have compassion for children.

Moreover, the He Family also had a person who was still missing — He Da.

Upon hearing such things, Father He always couldn’t help but think of He Da. He wondered if He Da was also deceived and taken to somewhere unknown. Was he also deceived by child traffickers and became someone else’s son? Did that family fear He Da would run away, so they kept him locked up every day?

Liang Jing told He Zhilan that the decision to hide from Father He that she had been abducted before she came to study was right. Now, everyone who knew about Sanpozi’s situation said that it was karma, that the sin Sanpozi committed has now affected her innocent granddaughter. If Father He had known that He Zhilan was abducted, would he have thought that because he bought He Zhilan, he had committed a sin which led to heaven depriving him of his son, He Da?

"Why do you look so serious?" Jiang Biyun and Chen Xiting had been watching He Zhilan’s reaction as she read the letters. Seeing that He Zhilan had finished reading and was about to slip the letters into a book, they once again opened their mouths to ask, "Is something wrong at home?"
