Chapter 504 Asking for help
Su Mei is missing.
Zheng Erlian was extremely anxious when she found out that Su Mei was missing. She had already guessed in her heart that Su Mei must have secretly gone to Beijing.
However, Zheng Erlian knew that Su Mei had no money, and she had a lot of money...
Zheng Erlian couldn't help but glance at Old Lady Su's room, pursed her lips slightly, and quietly told Su Shengguo about Su Mei.
Su Shengguo couldn't help but frown when he heard this and said, "Meizi doesn't have a letter of introduction, so she probably can't get far. I'll go to the county to look for her and bring her back when I find her. Don't tell mom about this for now."
Zheng Erlian said quickly: "I thought so too."
Su Shengguo found an excuse and went to Xiyuan County.
Su Mei did not have a letter of introduction, and she could not go to Zhao Youcai to get one, because she ran away after stealing the money from Old Lady Su's house. If she went to Zhao Youcai to get a letter of introduction, it would be very troublesome when her family found out. So, after stealing the money, Su Mei went directly to the county town to find Wu Tao.
"Su Mei!" Wu Tao was stopped by Su Mei not long after he got off work. He had been dating Su Mei for a while. Even though Su Mei had wrapped her face tightly with a scarf, Wu Tao still recognized her at a glance: "I've broken up with you, why are you looking for me?"
Wu Tao hasn't seen Su Mei since Su Shengguo returned to Lihua Village, so naturally he didn't know about Su Mei's disfigurement. Now that he saw Su Mei coming to him in a secretive manner, he became a little impatient.
"Wu Tao, since we were together before, can you do me a favor?" Su Mei said directly to Wu Tao without any nonsense.
Wu Tao frowned: "What do you want me to help you with?"
"Help me get a letter of introduction to Beijing City." Su Mei said, "It won't be difficult for you."
Su Mei knew that Wu Tao's second aunt was the street director, so getting a letter of introduction would be no problem for Wu Tao.
"You're going to Beijing?" Wu Tao looked at Su Mei in surprise. "What are you going to Beijing for?"
"I have something to do in Beijing." Su Mei said, "Wu Tao, please do me a favor."
Wu Tao sneered when he heard this: "Su Mei, don't think I don't know that you are back in Lihua Village now. If you need to go to Beijing City, you can openly get a letter of introduction from your village branch. You don't need to come to me at all. Do you take me for a fool?"
Su Mei looked at Wu Tao and knew that if she didn't say something, Wu Tao would definitely not help her. Ever since her father lost his job, Wu Tao decisively broke up with her. Su Mei knew that Wu Tao was not an easy person to get along with. The warmth and gentleness he showed in front of her was just a show. If Wu Tao really liked her, it would be impossible for him to break up so cleanly and decisively.
After taking a deep breath, Su Mei said, "My face is injured, and I need to go to Beijing to find my second aunt. But as you know, my family and my second aunt have fallen out a long time ago, and they don't agree. So, I can only come out secretly, and naturally I can't ask the village branch to get a letter of introduction."
"What!" Wu Tao was shocked when he heard this: "Your face is injured?"
As he said that, Wu Tao quickly pulled Su Mei's scarf. Su Mei didn't stop him, and the scarf fell off a little, revealing the scar on Su Mei's face. Wu Tao was shocked: "Oh my god, how did you get hurt like this?"
Su Mei was annoyed and hurriedly covered her face with a scarf, choking with sobs: "If I hadn't been injured like this, I wouldn't have thought of going to Beijing to find my second aunt. The doctor who can treat my face is in Beijing. I heard that my second aunt has a way to find that doctor, so I want to go to Beijing. Wu Tao, please help me, I don't want to live with a scar on my face for the rest of my life."
Wu Tao looked at Su Mei's face and inadvertently thought of Su Qing. When he first met Su Qing, there was also a deep scar on Su Qing's face. Later, the scar gradually became lighter. Later, the scar should have been completely removed. It's a pity that he never had the chance to see Su Qing afterwards.
Thinking of Su Qing's eyes and imagining what Su Qing would look like without the scars on her face, Wu Tao's heart began to stir again. He was dating Su Mei before, so it was difficult for him to pursue Su Qing, but now he is single!
"Is the scar on your cousin Su Qing's face gone?" Wu Tao asked.
Seeing that Wu Tao still remembered Su Qing, Su Mei felt annoyed. As expected, Su Qing had a coquettish face and seduced men everywhere. Maybe Wu Tao was seduced by Su Qing when he was dating her before. Otherwise, how could Wu Tao still remember Su Qing after such a long time?
However, now is not the time to argue with Wu Tao about this issue. She said, "Do you like Su Qing? If you do, I can tell you Su Qing's address in Beijing. You can go find her later. But you have to help me get a letter of introduction to Beijing. Also, I want to borrow some more money from you. I don't have enough money."
Now Su Mei no longer has the same feelings for Wu Tao as before. What she needs to do now is to maximize her own interests.
"You want to borrow money?" Wu Tao frowned.
"I've provided you with information. You can pursue Su Qing. I just made a small request. Besides, I'll pay you back in the future if I borrow money from you." Su Mei said hurriedly, "Also, you may not know that my second aunt has recognized her parents in Jing City. If you can pursue Su Qing in the future, you can go to Jing City. Moreover, Su Qing has a house in Jing City, so you can become a Jing City citizen. Isn't it better than living in this county?"
Wu Tao was surprised when he heard that. Su Qing actually had a house in Beijing. If he could pursue Su Qing, wouldn't it be equivalent to having a house in Beijing? Even if he didn't go to Beijing in the future, it would not be a loss to marry Su Qing. However, he still had to find out what kind of relatives Su Qing had in Beijing, so as not to end up with a bunch of poor relatives. That would be troublesome.
Thinking of this, Wu Tao said, "I have to think about this matter."
Su Mei got anxious when she heard this: "Wu Tao, I ran away secretly. If my family finds me and takes me back, I won't be able to go to Beijing."
"I have an empty house. You can stay here for two days. I'll talk to you after I've thought it over." Wu Tao thought for a while and said. After all, he couldn't suffer any loss in this matter.
Seeing Wu Tao say this, Su Mei knew that it was useless to say more, so she could only say: "Okay, then I just need a place to stay first."
"Okay, come back with me first." Wu Tao said, and took Su Mei back to the empty house of his own and placed Su Mei there.
Su Shengguo rushed to the county town and waited at the bus station until the bus to Penang left Xiyuan County. Su Shengguo still did not find Su Mei, and finally had to return to Lihua Village.
