The Kitty Became a Cutie and Was Pampered in the 80s-Chapter 824: Visiting the Xiu Family (3)

Jiang Bin clearly wasn’t an ordinary person, whether he had money or power, it was all good for her.

After all, she had always found Xiu Xun an eyesore. Although he could earn a few bucks every month and do some chores, how could that compare to the extravagant wealth in front of her eyes?

Hu Yun was becoming more agitated by the minute, crying and howling, drawing a crowd of neighbors.

When asked, she pointed at Jiang Bin crying, accusing him of trying to kidnap her child, and said that Wu Guoqun, the Captain, was unethical, and even the village secretary bullied their own villagers by helping outsiders kidnap her child!

Indeed, Wu Guoqun was so angry that he was smoking with rage.

The village secretary too was so furious that he had a heart attack, staying silent for a long time.

Jiang Bin, with all his years of education and knowledge, still couldn’t handle the situation unfolding before him, looking completely at a loss after Hu Yun’s commotion.

Even though Wu Guoqun was yelling that trafficking humans was illegal and that the relatives who came looking should have the child returned, in that era, to the uneducated rural folks, a child bought with money should belong to them.

They had no real sense of the seriousness of the situation.

They began to accuse Wu Guoqun, the Captain, of inaction.

Amid a mix of scolding and bickering voices, Xiu Xun, who had been silent all along, suddenly said, "Since you can’t bear to part with me, then I’ll just stay with the Xiu Family."

"Xiaoxun!" Jiang Bin exclaimed in surprise, attempting to grab him, but Xiu Xun had already gotten up and went outside the Xiu Family’s kitchen, starting to move firewood inside, calm as if he were not the center of this dispute.

In the midst of the chaos, Hu Yun, who had been calculating how much money she would demand, was stunned.

She was dumbfounded.

Wu Guoqun and the village secretary were also taken aback, not quite able to react. So, what now?

Xiu Xun had already carried several bundles of firewood into the kitchen, and after that, he went to get the clothes they had left unwashed from the day before, took the wooden basin, and went to the small gutter steps in front, kneeling down and starting to wash as if nothing had happened.

Hu Yun sat on the ground, still dumbfounded, watching him moving back and forth carrying firewood, and then carrying a basin of clothes to wash by the front water gutter; she was utterly unable to react.

She thought this boy wanted to go back with them, so she had already decided on a price in her mind.

But now this boy suddenly says he wants to stay?

Stay?

How could that be possible!

With his monthly salary of just a few bucks, how many years would it take him to earn ten thousand?

Yes, the amount Hu Yun wanted was ten thousand.

Before, she would never have dared to demand such an exorbitant price, but in August, when the Ruan Family made wine, they received several tens of thousands in gifts, which really opened her eyes.

And the person in front of her clearly had a good relationship with the Ruan Family, she knew that the Ruan Family was now the wealthiest household in the village, able to earn quite a bit of money with their restaurant making over a hundred in revenue every day.

So, anyone who has good relations with the Ruan Family must also be wealthy, like the person in front of her, ten thousand yuan probably wouldn’t be a significant issue for him, so she wanted to make a big scene, a huge scene, to force him to compromise.

Little did she know that things were developing well, but then Xiu Xun suddenly made this move, not leaving? Staying at the Xiu Family?

Even the clever Hu Yun started to panic at this moment.

If he really isn’t leaving, then how would she get her ten thousand?

Looking at the spectators from the village, then at the village secretary and Wu Guoqun, whom she had angered to death, Hu Yun was feeling somewhat regretful.
