Chapter 183 -184: Find a Helper_1
Early this morning, Mrs. Chui and Lin Yang hastily ate breakfast and immediately set off for Chatu Town. There was no time to delay.
“I’m sure that wretched girl is in that house. Today, even if we have to make the whole village aware, we must turn that damned girl out!” Mrs. Chui seethed with rage. She hadn’t slept well the whole previous night and was almost murderous now.
Lin Yang nodded in agreement, too afraid to provoke her.
Just as they were eating, they heard a loud pounding at the door, “Open up! Open up!”
The voice was very aggressive.
Mrs. Chui’s temper flared instantly. Who dared to come looking for trouble at such a time? She was the most feared person in town, and anyone who dared to provoke her was in for a storm.
“Which son of a bitch, so full of himself, dares to pound on our door! Looking for death, are you!” Mrs. Chui cursed as she flung open the door with a swoosh.
But she was shoved to the ground by a group of menacing men and even rolled around on the ground. Before Mrs. Chui could react, she heard a furious shout:
“Which son of a bitch? Open your dog eyes and see clearly, is our master someone that you lowly folks can curse at?”

Mrs. Chui looked up sheepishly and saw the men make way, as a man pushed a wheelchair inside. On the wheelchair sat none other than Mr. Zheng, Lin Kexin’s future husband.
Although Mr. Zheng was advanced in age, his temper was explosive: “Where is Lin Kexin?”
Mrs. Chui hastily replied, “She, she, she’s inside, about to be married. A girl in her three months before marriage shouldn’t see anyone! Why are you in such a hurry, Mr. Zheng? Once they’re married, you’ll have plenty of time to see her!”
Mrs. Chui knew she’d made a big mistake and regretted it deeply. If only she had seen who it was before cursing. Mr. Zheng was a big power in Jinyang Town, and offending him was like seeking death.
What was even more dire was that Lin Kexin wasn’t at home right now. If Mr. Zheng found out anything, Mrs. Chui didn’t dare to think about it.
But Mr. Zheng suddenly turned pale, lifted his foot resting on the wheelchair, and kicked Mrs. Chui in the chest, “Shut your damn mouth! Don’t think that because I’m crippled, I’m also a fool. Did Lin Kexin run away?”
Mrs. Chui was in excruciating pain from that kick just as Lin Yang heard the commotion and came running out. Seeing his wife being abused, he rushed over, “How can you hit people like this!”
A tall man beside Mr. Zheng sneered and kicked Lin Yang to the ground, “In Jinyang Town, there’s no one our master can’t beat!”
Lin Yang was so scared his face turned white as he huddled beside Mrs. Chui on the ground, shivering.
Mrs. Chui pinched him fiercely, suppressing her pain as she flashed a forced smile at Mr. Zheng, “Yes, yes, yes, a person of Mr. Zheng’s stature could squash us just as easily as crushing ants. How could we lowly folk ever catch Mr. Zheng’s eye.”
But Mr. Zheng was not swayed in the least, and he barked sharply, “Where is Lin Kexin?! I was originally sincere towards you all, I gave fifty taels for the betrothal gifts. Now with the wedding so close, you’re telling me the bride is gone! Do you really think I, Zheng, can be so easily fooled?!”
Mrs. Chui’s head shook like a rattle-drum, “We dare not! We dare not! Where would we get the guts to deceive you? We’re anxiously searching as well. That wretched girl has no sense of fortune; she doesn’t realize how lucky she is to marry you and has the audacity to run away. Once we catch her, we will certainly teach her a lesson, make her obedient, and then send her to you!”
“Wait for you to find her? Don’t think I don’t know you’ve been searching for several days without so much as a shadow! Now you still want to play me for a fool?”
Mrs. Chui broke into a cold sweat out of fear, “No, no, no, we’ve already found out where she is. She only knows a few people; she must have headed for Chatu Town to seek refuge with her elder sister. Let’s go find her right now; we will be able to find her! Today, we will definitely bring her back for you. Rest assured, in Jinyang Town, we wouldn’t dare offend anyone—especially not you, sir. The marriage will not fall through!”
Mr. Zheng’s expression softened slightly, and he snorted coldly, “You better recognize the situation. If you don’t bring her back today, I’ll make you regret it.”
Mrs. Chui promptly agreed, but then her eyes quickly shifted as if she had come up with a clever plan. The light in her eyes brightened as she appealed to Mr. Zheng, “Mr. Zheng, it’s not that we don’t want to search. Just yesterday we went to her elder sister’s, but her sister is now a servant to a wealthy family, and the lady of that household has a nasty temper. She wouldn’t let us look for her. Even if we know where Kexin is, it’s tough for us to act.”
Mr. Zheng stroked his beard, as if pondering something.
Mrs. Chui hastened to add, “Yesterday, my husband and I were chased away by the lady of that home. I couldn’t stand it. They’re just slightly richer than average in this poor village, who are they to show us such attitude? If she knew that the lost bride was to be yours, Mr. Zheng, she would not dare to stop us. But, of course, they would not let us search coming from our lowly status.”
Mrs. Chui’s tone carried a hint of grievance.
Mr. Zheng, upon hearing they were dealing with a “rich family” from a mere village, sneered, “They’re just a small-time household, getting above themselves. Are you certain she’s there?”
Mrs. Chui nodded vigorously, “Absolutely! There’s nowhere else she could be!”
Mr. Zheng turned to his son, Zheng Duobin, who was pushing the wheelchair by his side, “Then you take a few brothers with you, and bring her back. First drop my name; if they refuse to cooperate, just barge in and search. I, old man Zheng, am not afraid of these people.”
Zheng Duobin hurriedly bowed, “Father rest assured, I will take care of this and will bring her straight to you.”
No wonder the old man was so keen on Lin Kexin; the women of Lin Family had good genes, and Lin Kexin was particularly outstanding. Her beauty was unmatched in Jinyang Town. Had the old man not set his sights on Lin Kexin, this beautiful delinquent, Zheng Duobin himself would have liked to take her into his chambers as a concubine.
Yet, Zheng Duobin would not be foolish enough to compete with his own father over a woman. After all, the girl was still young, and once the old man passed away, he’d still have a chance to have his taste of her. This greedy thought flashed through Zheng Duobin’s mind as a glint of lust appeared in his eyes.
Mrs. Chui was even more delighted inside. With Mr. Zheng’s men by her side, wouldn’t she have much more confidence? Catching the girl would be a piece of cake, wouldn’t it?
