Chapter 434 A sudden mudslide occurred, and he hit a rock while unconscious, resulting in amnesia!
Just as Qiao Runming was about to hang up, an old male voice hurriedly said from the other end of the line, "Son-in-law, I am your father-in-law."
"Ah, hello Dad!" Suddenly having a dad made me feel a little embarrassed to call him that.
He Dechang also felt embarrassed, and with a straight face, he said "Mmm": "We'll be staying here for a few more days to shut those two down. Bring the child to the office tomorrow, and I'll call them."
Qiao Runming remained silent for a full minute before saying, "Father, you're putting me in a difficult position!"
Li Hailian thought the old man was incredibly unreliable, so she reached out and pinched his arm: "We've waited all these years, what's the rush? Do you really think you can just pick up a child whenever you want?"
Ho Te-chang even complained, "I just want to hear my grandchildren's voices!"
Qiao Runming was in a dilemma. On the one hand, it had been raining in Qingshan Brigade for the past two days, and he really didn't want to take the child out to suffer.
On the other hand, it seems inappropriate to refuse a request made by one's father-in-law for the first time.
He was afraid that He Nian's family would have a problem with him.
Just as I was hesitating, I heard Qiao Manman say, "Don't listen to my grandpa. He's been absent from my mother's life for so many years. Let him wait!"
Qiao Runming felt like he had been granted a pardon: "Okay, okay, I'll hang up now."
He hung up with a snap and let out a long sigh in the office.
"Factory manager, I'm done!"
Miao Shoujun came in and asked curiously, "Your father-in-law?"
"Oh right, my Niannian isn't an orphan. She got lost when she came here on a business trip with her family."
Miao Shoujun knew he wasn't telling the truth, but so what? They were family, so he believed whatever he said.
"That's pretty lucky, you've finally found your family!"
"Yes, yes, Niannian's parents have been looking for her for many years."
Miao Shoujun pointed out the flaw in his words: "Are you sure you're not mistaken about the place? Our county is so small, how could we not have found our daughter for more than ten years?"
Qiao Runming was stunned, unsure how to cover up the lie.
Even though He Nian is quite old, he still doesn't want people to know that she was once abducted and trafficked, fearing that others would spread rumors and ruin her reputation.
"Oh right, I remembered wrong. He Nian, she..."
"I graduated with a degree in geology. I was surveying the terrain here with my professor when a mudslide suddenly occurred. I was swept into the water, and while I was unconscious, I hit a rock and lost my memory."
Qiao Runming's eyes lit up after hearing this. He thought to himself, "As expected of a leader, he's much smarter than me!"
Nodding like a beckoning cat: "Yes, yes, you're right, she was swept away by the mudslide!"
"If anyone asks, just say you found her teacher and that's how you found out the truth. Because she was swept away by a flash flood for dozens of miles, she went the wrong way and missed it for so many years!"
Qiao Runming admired Miao Shoujun so much that he wanted to kowtow to him.
"Did you remember your father-in-law's number? Call him and let him know!" Miao Shoujun reminded him.
Qiao Runming shook his head: "I forgot!"
"It's alright, just spread the word first. Manman is so smart, she'll definitely understand what it means."
"Okay, okay, I'll tell my coworkers right away!"
Qiao Runming ran away, laughing like a silly roe deer.
Miao Shoujun shook his head with a smile, thinking to himself that fools are often blessed, and he was strangely lucky.

In Dong Province, Qiao Manman once again chose to ignore He Dechang's accusing gaze.
He went upstairs with a grin, but then he got so angry that he yelled, "This is outrageous! They don't respect their grandpa at all!"
He Jingcheng patted his father's shoulder with a smug look on his face: "Now you know how I feel about being kicked out by those two."
"If Lu Yuan were here, you'd probably have a heart attack from anger!"
"Is he really that awful? Why don't you talk to Manman and tell her to get a divorce and find someone who's obedient?"
"I wouldn't dare. The couple is of one mind. What if I mess things up and they treat me like a nobody?"
He Dechang patted his chest, thinking to himself that his granddaughter was truly, truly capable!
He wasn't so cowardly towards He Jingcheng: "By the way, how did you find your niece? You were vague on the phone and couldn't explain anything clearly."
"I was in Guangdong Province at the time..."
He Jingcheng vividly recounted the harrowing experience, but He Dechang astutely grasped the key points.
"How did Manman end up in Guangdong Province? And you mean she was accompanied by a bodyguard at the time?"
He Jingcheng first shook his head, then nodded, indicating that he didn't know and was certain.
What does your niece do for a living?
"Like us, doing scientific research, but I don't know exactly what area!"
Ho Te-chang was extremely surprised: "You mean she's also a researcher? I thought she worked at a hospital!"
"No, it's in the research institute, next to our unit."
"Then how come she knows medicine?"
He Jingcheng learned this on the way: "My niece's grandfather is a military doctor!"
"Oh, that's not bad!" At least from a genetic point of view, the son-in-law is not bad.
It's a pity that he was replaced and didn't receive a good education, leading to a somewhat mediocre life.
He Jingcheng nodded: "It's a good match in terms of social standing."
Upstairs, Qiao Manman looked at the brand-new room and was quite pleasantly surprised.
"You must have spent a lot of fabric ration coupons to buy these sheets and duvet covers, right?"
"It's alright. Your grandfather and I are usually at the research institute, farming all day long. We don't need to wear new clothes, so we naturally saved up these cloth coupons."
"Saving is one thing, being willing to spend is another. Thank you, Grandma!"
Li Hailian touched her face affectionately: "It's because your grandmother didn't take good care of your mother, causing you to be stranded outside for so many years!"
"Please don't say that. If my mother hadn't been harmed by villains, she wouldn't have met my father."
If I hadn't met my father, I wouldn't have been born. It was all predestined!
Li Hailian smiled and nodded: "That makes sense. If it weren't for this ordeal, your mother would have had to suffer in the Hua family's den of wolves, and her life would have been ruined."
It's clear that God still has mercy on us.
Qiao Manman agreed and chatted with her for a while before yawning and seeing her off.
Li Hailian closed the door and told her to get some rest.
When I got downstairs, I saw the father and son whispering to each other. I went over to listen and realized that their marriage was truly preordained.
“Our son-in-law’s experience is quite legendary.” He’s just like our daughter, no wonder they got together.
The three exchanged a glance and smiled with relief. However, there were more important things to do right now.
He Dechang picked up the phone and used his entire network of contacts at this moment.
Call the boss, call your favorite student, and complain about how unfortunate their family is, how they are bullied by the Hua family.
Li Hailian and He Jingcheng also used a combination of sob stories and coercion to get people in the scientific research community to take action and put pressure on the Public Security Bureau.
"The evidence is conclusive, Lao Zhang. If the Hua family weren't so powerful, would I have called you and reopened my wounds?"
"Yes, Secretary Qin, the Hua family has serious problems. If it weren't for my Nian Nian being lucky enough to be rescued, who knows how much suffering she would have endured!"
The police chief was overwhelmed with calls.
There was no time to interrogate Yin Yuhan and Hua Yihai before they went to the Hua family to arrest them.
