Transmigrated Into the Vicious Stepmother in a Historical Novel - Chapter 272

He was very afraid that the villagers would point at his back and accuse him of mistreating children.

If Old Mrs. Lu didn’t care about her own reputation, he still wanted to keep his! He couldn’t understand what Old Mrs. Lu was thinking all day.

In the past, when Old Mrs. Lu played mahjong with others in the village, she was just idle all day long.

Now that she wasn’t playing mahjong anymore, she started coming up with these crooked ideas.

This time, the place Old Mrs. Lu went to wasn’t far. She had taken a few buses and then a taxi, making her way there.

If they only rode the bicycle, it would have taken a long time, so after some thought, Sheng Fei and Lu Ting decided to borrow a vehicle to find Lu Sanya.

“This vehicle is too slow. We must borrow another means of transportation.”

“Is there anyone in the village? Oh, there’s a tractor. Right, I remember my friend has a car. I’ll go find him.”

Suddenly, Sheng Fei and Lu Ting recalled that their friend had a car, which was fortunate because it would be faster.

After briefly explaining the situation to his friend, the friend was shocked. He didn’t expect the child’s grandmother to be so cruel as to sell the child.

It seems that you really can’t know a person’s heart by their face.

Without delay, after hearing Lu Ting’s account, the friend immediately took the car to join them in searching for Lu Sanya.

After getting directions, they quickly found the house next to a small alley where Lu Sanya had been sold.

Lu Ting and Sheng Fei quickly knocked on the door and finally saw Lu Sanya.

Upon seeing her, the family initially thought they were troublemakers, only to realize later that it was Old Mrs. Lu who had secretly sold Lu Sanya without telling them.

The child’s uncle and stepmother were completely unaware!

However, Sheng Fei didn’t mention that she was the stepmother. She claimed to be the child’s mother, explaining that Old Mrs. Lu had sold Lu Sanya behind their backs.

Initially, they just wanted to ask if the family was willing to adopt her, but after hearing Sheng Fei’s explanation, they realized that the decision had been solely Old Mrs. Lu’s and the child’s parents had nothing to do with it.

The couple originally just wanted to adopt one child, and this situation left them a bit confused.

This couple was somewhat status-conscious. After Sheng Fei and Lu Ting finished explaining, they called Lu Sanya out.

At this moment, Lu Sanya had red eyes and immediately hugged Sheng Fei.

In the past, she would have instinctively trusted Lu Ting first in such a situation.

But now, everything had changed. Lu Sanya trusted Sheng Fei the most.

After hugging Sheng Fei, Lu Sanya began to cry.

She said she didn’t want to leave her parents, but the couple wouldn’t let her go. Lu Sanya had heard that her parents sold her, and she couldn’t believe that Sheng Fei was that kind of person, so she had been making a fuss all night.

Although the couple wouldn’t let Lu Sanya leave, they didn’t mistreat her. They just kept her locked in a room.

After all, when children first leave their parents, they tend to protest and refuse to adapt to a new environment, but eventually they get used to it.

So the couple hadn’t thought much of it.

Now seeing Sheng Fei hugging Lu Sanya tightly, the couple finally realized that they had been deceived by Old Mrs. Lu.
