Chapter 256: Chapter 130: This Time It’s a Swindler (Part 3)_3
He truly realized that his parents didn’t want him, and even despised him deeply, when he was seven years old.
Grandma passed away, leaving no direct relatives in his hometown.
Su Min then thought that his real parents should now take him back to the city to live with them.
However, after his real father came back to deal with Grandma’s funeral, he went to see an uncle from a family outside the Five Tribes and, after some discussion, sent Su Min there.
Every year, his real father gave the uncle some money and even transferred Su Min’s household registration to his family.
Later, when he grew up, Su Min learned the reason: his real mother was pregnant again, but the country had a policy that even rural households could only have two children.
His real parents didn’t want to pay the fine, so they "adopted out" their larger, disliked daughter to their uncle.
From then on, Su Min lived a life dependent on others.
In fact, if it were just about poor food, poor lodging, having to work, and facing disdain, Su Min wouldn’t have felt so much hatred.
But when she turned twelve and began to develop, showing the slight features of a young girl, even her uncle, who was older than her real father, started to look at her in an inappropriate way.
Su Min was terrified.
She somehow managed to get her real parents’ contact information and called them, using the little spare money she had saved.
His real mother, who answered the phone, didn’t believe her cries at all and said impatiently, "Just listen to your uncle, stop being so ignorant. Your father and I are both working hard to make money and take care of the two children, we are already struggling enough, don’t make it worse!"
Su Min, holding the public phone at the village store, could hardly convey her feelings in that moment to anyone.
Despair! Anger!
Su Min almost turned malevolent.
The only light in her heart was when she had inadvertently run into Guiyuan Temple in her youth and met a kind Old Taoist Priest and a cute young Taoist.
The Old Taoist Priest taught Su Min how to recognize herbs, and the young Taoist played with her.
After the Old Taoist Priest passed away, Su Min cried her heart out.
Although she did not formally become his disciple, she held deep respect in her heart for this elder, whose soul was noble and compassionate.
Su Min was very smart; she grew up with a lonely old lady in the countryside, where you had to be either confrontational or physically tough to avoid being bullied.
Su Min wasn’t either, but she was clever; her grandma couldn’t protect her, and the village children bullied her, so she relied on her wits.
So, she suggested to the young Taoist, "To bury our master, we must not hesitate to sell our family’s genuine talisman," and they sold the Old Taoist Priest’s peace charm, which was originally priced at five yuan, for 50 yuan.
It was Su Min who opened the door to a new world for He Qingfeng.
And He Qingfeng himself was not dumb; he just couldn’t think of it before because the environment he lived in was too closed off, too simple.
But he was capable of learning by inference.
Once Su Min set the stage, He Qingfeng began to assert himself.
Later, the two of them would even collaborate in "operations."
During holidays or after classes, these two teenagers, dressed in Taoist robes, one as a senior brother and the other as a junior sister, would begin roaming the Itinerant World.
He Qingfeng and Su Min were both very good-looking, fair-skinned, elegant, with long hair in Taoist buns, appearing very obedient and cute.
So, even if people guessed they might be swindlers, upon hearing their auspicious words, they still couldn’t resist pulling out their wallets.
Beauty is justice, indeed.
It was only because of Guiyuan Temple and He Qingfeng that Su Min didn’t completely turn malevolent.
One night, when her uncle actually came into her room and began to touch her inappropriately, Su Min kicked him right in the crotch, dashed out the door, and fled to Guiyuan Temple.
That year, Su Min was only thirteen years old.
Although coerced by her uncle, even Su Min’s own mother didn’t believe her, let alone outsiders.
Moreover, Su Min didn’t want to make this public because although that disgusting old man would be cursed, she would also be subject to the pointing fingers of the people in the village.
Victims are to blame, indeed.
People would always say things like "It takes two hands to clap," "If he’s shameless, you’re no better."
Having seen the ugliest side of human nature, Su Min naturally couldn’t expect things to turn out too well.
To prevent any further problems, Su Min decided to become a swindler herself.
She went to Guiyuan Temple and, after discussing with He Qingfeng, Su Min returned to Su Family Bay.
The uncle’s family was furiously searching for her, with help from the neighbors on both sides.
Seeing Su Min return, because there were outsiders present, the uncle couldn’t just hit her outright.
So, the aunt scolded Su Min and then locked her in a room, planning to seek compensation from Su Min’s parents after dawn.
But, in the middle of the night, someone set fire to the uncle’s woodpile, and in their sleep, the uncle, aunt, and their two sons were all beaten up.
Bruised faces were the least of it; the three men nearly had their limbs broken...
