fulfill the promise to you

Calling for help, it was still this time, Zhaoqian suddenly became angry.

"Okay, I just want to ask you to come to my house to take care of Sister Yuan Qiu before I return to Nanjie? Don't let anyone enter there, in case the landlord rents it out to others."

"Are you really going abroad?" Zhaoqian was startled, opened his eyes and sat up awake in an instant.

Xiao Nuo answered "No", and there was the sound of insects on the phone, and then the sound of closing the door. Listening to the sound, Zhaoqian felt that it was the closing sound of an old wooden door.

A shadow emerged from the bad memory. Zhaoqian thought that the sound of insects was coming from near him, but when he heard the sound of closing the door, Zhaoqian vaguely felt that something was wrong.

"Where are you now? I heard that something happened to you, are you okay?" Zhaoqian asked softly.

"I'm fine. I'm out of town now. I can't go back for the time being. I'll go back after I've dealt with some things."

"It's as simple as asking me to go to that house to keep an eye on Yuan Qiu? You'd better tell the truth, or I can send someone to find you in a few minutes." Zhaoqian snapped.He's not stupid. He took over so many orders back then, and this kind of situation happened a lot.

Xiao Nuo hesitated for a moment and didn't speak, Zhaoqian heard the sound of breathing in from the other end, Xiao Nuo spoke again, with a strong nasal voice.

Zhaoqian asked him curiously, "Are you crying or are you catching a cold?"

"It's really fine, please, please protect Sister Yuan Qiu and wait for me to go back."

"Are you back? I heard from your neighbor that you haven't shown up for a long time. Did that woman ask you for trouble?" Zhaoqian visited Xiao Nuo several times during the period, but there was no one at home, and Yuan Qiu also said that he didn't know what happened.Until the long-lost opponent came back in the last few days, I didn't know anything about him.

"Lu Teng is back? Did he say anything?" Xiao Nuo was a little worried. If Lu Teng knew something, his parents would know it in a second.

Zhaoqian reassured him that he didn't ask any random questions, and even lied to Lu Teng that Xiao Nuo was on a business trip. Lu Teng, who was questioned before, accepted the question foolishly without the slightest doubt.

"Excuse me, if Sister Yuan Qiu asks, tell her, I will definitely go back."

"Hmm—" Zhaoqian felt puzzled, answered absent-mindedly, and hung up the phone.

How could this Xiao Nuo say such things for no reason?I heard that the neighbor said he didn't go home, so where did he go?

Zhaoqian threw the phone back on the sofa, climbed back to bed and continued to sleep.

As for Ye Mushi, since he received the news of the retrial, Gu Yuanyang asked him to find the whereabouts of the forensic doctor. Now after several inquiries, he finally found the man's residence.

I heard that the forensic doctor lived in a compound.When Ye Mushi came to the compound, he found that there were not many young people here, only the elderly and some children who had not yet reached school age.

There are many pagoda trees planted in the compound, and the branches that used to be lush with leaves are a little bare in this near-winter weather.

Ye Mushi walked through several buildings before finding Mr. Forensic Doctor's home.When he arrived at the door of his house, the door was closed tightly. Looking at the dust on the door, it seemed that no one had been there for a long time.

"Could it be moving?" Ye Mushi guessed that there was such a possibility, and went back to the place with the most crowds to ask a few old people.

Several old women and their grandchildren were sitting at the door basking in the sun while doing some small manual work. Ye Mushi approached and asked, "Mama, where has the forensic doctor in building A4 moved now? I heard they live here." for many years."

The white-haired old woman in a padded jacket with a hundred-flower pattern on it looked at Ye Mushi, and slowly put down the handiwork in her hand to respond: "Old Wei?"

"It's Mr. Wei." Ye Mushi nodded in reply.

A slightly younger woman sitting next to the white-haired mother-in-law asked Ye Mushi: "Why do you want him?"

"I need his help now."

"He passed away, three years ago."

"What?" Ye Mushi's mind suddenly went blank. The forensic doctor had passed away three years ago, so who would ask for a retrial?

Ye Mushi turned around and was about to leave, but within a few steps, the white-haired old woman called out to Ye Mushi.

"There is someone you can go to. They are colleagues. If Lao Wei knows it, he should know it too."

Ye Mushi turned around, and saw the old woman beckoning a five or six-year-old boy to go home, and soon the boy came back, holding a yellow-brown note in his hand, and he gave the note to Ye Mushi .

Ye Mushi took the note.The note was only the size of a palm, and there was only one line of phone number written inside.

Ye Mushi drove to the company to work. Although it has been a while since he took over the company, the difficulty is still arduous.In order not to let work affect his body, Ye Mushi came home from get off work on time.

I was so busy all day that I completely forgot about going to the compound in the morning to find someone, and I only remembered the note after I took a shower and was about to go to bed.

Ye Mushi got up from the bed suddenly, and checked the time on the phone, it was already 23:[-], and he was too embarrassed to call at this time to disturb others' rest.

Thinking about getting up tomorrow and calling again, I was about to lie back on the bed again when I remembered where the note had gone.

Ye Mushi looked for the wallet and found it was there, and then went to the laundry room to look for a pocket for a change of clothes, but there was still none. When he was wondering where it was, his eyes suddenly opened, and he suddenly ran to the parking lot.

☆, looking for forensic partner

When I arrived at the parking lot, I found that the car was not there, and ran to the lawn in the backyard non-stop. Before I reached the lawn, I heard the sound of spraying water.

"It's over, it's over..." Ye Mushi knew that it was hopeless, so he slowed down.

Next to the car, a 50-year-old dark-skinned man with a cut head was washing the car. When he saw Ye Mushi coming, he just nodded to him and continued working.

"Why are you washing the car now?" Ye Mushi didn't show a disappointed expression, thinking that he would just ask the old lady for it tomorrow.What I'm curious about now is why this uncle washes the car here so late.

"It's past eleven o'clock now, don't you go to rest?"

"Hurry up, did I disturb you?" The uncle was a little worried, and looked at Ye Mushi with fearful eyes.

"No, I'm just curious why you are still washing the car so late, did you do other work earlier?"

The uncle turned off the water, and replied truthfully: "I just came back from working outside."

"Part-time job?" Ye Mu really didn't understand. Could it be that he is not a part-time job when he washes cars here?

The uncle looked at Ye Mushi's puzzled expression, and explained: "Your family asked me to wash the car and trim the flowers and plants, but there was no rule on when to come, so I decided to come here during the day and once at night. Go work elsewhere."

"Are you going to be able to receive a pension in a few years? Why are you still working so hard? Did the child just go to college?"

The uncle shook his head, smiled and said again: "The children are all married and have children, but they don't have a house, so they all have to work hard together. As for the pension, people like us who have no knowledge and no ability, how can we have it?" pension."

"Go to bed early, I want to wash the car in the future, and I will ask you to wash it." Ye Mushi turned and walked back to the room slowly.

Early in the morning, Ye Mushi drove to the compound before seven o'clock, and it was almost eight o'clock when he arrived at the compound. The old people in the compound were chatting and working in the same place as usual.

As soon as Ye Mushi entered the compound, he looked around, looking for the figure of the old woman who delivered the note yesterday.

Under a locust tree, an old lady was sitting under the tree doing handicrafts, and there were a few aunts sitting next to them. They still remembered Ye Mushi. When Ye Mushi approached them, one of the aunts with a ponytail stood up.

"Young man, did you find anyone?" the aunt asked Ye Mushi.

The old woman looked up at Ye Mushi, and when the sun hit her eyes, she immediately narrowed her eyes and stretched out her hand to block it.

Ye Mushi nodded to the auntie, walked up to the old woman, smiled apologetically, lowered her head and said, "I'm sorry, mother-in-law, I was too busy yesterday, so I left the note you gave me on the car, and lost it when I washed the car."

The aunt next to her laughed a few times and looked at her mother-in-law.

The old lady also laughed, but also showed an apologetic expression after laughing.

"Young man, my mother-in-law only has this note. I didn't remember it before, and you can't find it anymore."

Ye Mushi froze in place, not knowing what to do.

"Go look for him where he works, what a fool." Aunt Ponytail joked, and Ye Mushi suddenly realized how he could be so stupid.

"Inquire about the Ruitai Hotel. When you get there, ask someone where to go to Guangyuan Thirteenth Street. Someone will know Lao Lu."

Ye Mushi learned from the aunts where his forensic colleagues used to work, and only when he got there did he know that it was a police station.

"Just tell me it's the police station. Why do you say it's the back of the hotel?" Ye Mushi was very helpless with the introduction of the aunts, but now that they have found it, Ye Mushi is already very content.

After turning a corner, look up and see the sign of the police station. On the blue plaque, there are two big words "公安" written from left to right, with a badge in the middle and "POLICE" in English.

Before the person entered, he heard a roar coming from inside, Ye Mushi stopped outside the door for a few seconds, and continued to move forward.

As soon as he entered, he saw a few young men with tattoos were caught and squatted in the corner for interrogation. Someone saw Ye Mushi coming and looked at him with a straight face, waiting for Ye Mushi to speak.

Ye Mushi missed the man's wink, and saw two young ladies sitting in front of the computer in a place similar to an office, and asked one of the short-haired women.

Ye Mushi lowered his waist slightly and asked, "Excuse me, did Mr. Lu Jian work here before?"

The short-haired woman nodded yes, and Ye Mushi asked again.

After going back and forth, I finally got the old gentleman's contact information.Just as I was about to go back, I suddenly remembered that there was something I hadn't done, so I turned around and asked again.

"I'd like to trouble you. Some time ago, our sister-in-law was re-examined as not committing suicide. Their natal family doesn't know about this. I don't know her natal address or her natal family. Please help me find it."

Short-haired woman: "Please show proof that we can help you."

Ye Mushi asked her to wait for a while, and quickly ran back to the car to get the documents.

Ye Mushi had made preparations long before going out, and only remembered now.Gu Yuanyang also handed over their previous marriage certificate, ID card and household registration book to Ye Mushi a few days ago.

Back at the police station, the short-haired woman believed Ye Mushi after looking over her books.

The short-haired lady said again: "Don't you have the victim's ID card?"

Ye Mushi shook his head, he hadn't thought about it before, it seems that he will have to go to Xiao Nuo to look for it next time, maybe he can find it.

The short-haired lady entered some information into the computer, and then asked Ye Mushi to leave her contact information, so that when she got the news, she would notify him and send the message to her mobile phone.

"Thank you." Ye Mushi wrote down his phone number in the notebook, left the police station with his ID, and then drove back to the company to work.

Ye Mushi did not receive the news from the police station until two days later, during which time he had contacted Lu Jian, and the two agreed to meet at a restaurant at noon today.

When the appointed time came, Ye Mushi went to the restaurant to wait for Lu Jian with various documents.

Before some things are confirmed, Ye Mushi doesn't want Gu Yuanyang to know for the time being.I just want to hide it for a while, not for a lifetime, at least not to distract him when he is most tired.

Ye Mushi sat alone in the simple restaurant box, and the dishes were served slowly until the last dish was served, and Mr. Lu Jian came by appointment.

"Mr. Lu Jian came at the right time, the dishes are still hot, please." Ye Mushi asked Lu Jian to eat with a smile on his face.

Mr. Lu Jian is now nearly seventy years old, with a slightly fat body, wrinkled face, short gray hair, and a very loud voice. He always smiles, but he looks kind.He was wearing a gray and white coat and a hat of the same color. He took off the coat and hat as soon as he entered the box and closed the door.

"I finally saw you in person, Mr. Ye." Lu Jian stretched out his right hand and held Ye Mushi for a few seconds, laughing generously.

He took out a palm-sized notepad from his coat pocket and handed it to Ye Mushi: "Since you contacted me, I have written all the details of the case in this small book, you can read it later .”

Ye Mushi took Lu Jian's notepad, looked down a few times, and asked eagerly: "Thank you, but I want to know more, how did you find out that my sister-in-law did not commit suicide?"

The reason why Gu Yuanyang didn't believe it was because he had his own obsession. He didn't believe that his lover would die because of him.

But in the eyes of outsiders, there is no evidence that everything is illusory by him.But the person in front of him is different. They pursue evidence and logic in their work, and it is impossible for him to assert that Yuan Qiu did not commit suicide by relying on psychological unwillingness like his brother.

Mr. Lu Jian poured himself a bowl of hot soup, took a few sips and squinted his eyes in satisfaction, and then said seriously: "This matter starts with the case that Wei Fu took over—"

After Wei Fu received the case back then, he discovered some doubts in it, but just less than half a month after taking over the case, the higher-ups issued an order, saying that the case was transferred to another place, and he was out of control.

Wei Fu immediately contacted his colleague, the old uncle. Just when the investigation was going up and down, the old uncle passed away due to illness, and the matter was left behind.Lu Jian, who was a partner with the old uncle back then, kept all the information, until it was dug out again at this time.

"During the examination, Wei Fu found a fresh scar on the abdomen of the deceased. Looking at the physical characteristics of the deceased, he concluded that the deceased was a breastfeeding mother. Judging from the scar, it was less than two months after giving birth."

Ye Mushi was stunned when he heard that, frowning, he still didn't believe that Yuan Qiu had a child before his death.

After thinking about it for a while, he still couldn't understand why a pregnant woman left home to give birth outside, and the baby died just after giving birth.

"Are you sure, that person is my sister-in-law?"

Lu Jian nodded, and said: "She has never taken any medicine for depression, so the possibility of postpartum depression has been ruled out afterwards. A mother who just gave birth to a child is renting a house alone, and the child is not with her. It is impossible anyway. Will take drugs to kill himself."

"This possibility has been raised by you, why didn't you report it, and sent her body to be cremated directly?" Ye Mushi said excitedly, Yuan Qiu's case was so obviously suspicious, but there was no People raised doubts, and even destroyed the corpse.

Heh——Zhang Zishui, you never thought of that, right?

"You've investigated my sister-in-law's past, haven't you?"

Lu Jian smiled, continued to eat, and said while eating: "It can only be said to be a coincidence. Wei Fu's mother died just after giving birth to him. Everyone thought she died of postpartum hemorrhage. Fortunately, at the end The truth came out. Seeing that Yuan Qiu was like her mother, he felt sympathy and asked us to help her, until now the truth has come to you."

Ye Mushi was deeply touched, and for this, he was very grateful to the forensic doctor whom he had never met.

"If there are no accidents, will the real culprit be caught?"

Lu Jian shook her head and responded: "The retrial of this case has been successful, and the police will handle the next task of finding the real culprit. It is indeed much more convenient and safer than finding the real culprit by yourself. But even if you have a clear target of suspicion in your heart, in the face of evidence, what can the police do?" without them."

Ye Mushi was puzzled: "How did the old man know that we have a suspect? I never mentioned that person from the beginning to the end."

Lu Jian was also puzzled: "You don't know? You contacted me, don't you know?"

☆, the mountain village takes the baby back

"I don't understand what you're talking about." Ye Mushi said he didn't know anything.

"Does it mean that there are other people investigating your sister-in-law?"

Ye Mushi became nervous immediately, and immediately told Lu Jian: "Mr., you have seen my proof. I am undoubtedly Yuan Qiu's brother-in-law. If anyone asks about my sister-in-law in the future, please don't answer. I want evidence take them all away."

Lu Jian nodded emphatically, this matter cannot be sloppy: "No one has come to ask me about this matter yet, don't worry."

There are other people who are investigating sister-in-law, could it be Xiao Nuo?

-

After another day of running around, Ye Mushi lay on the bed after washing up, thinking about some recent things.

In just one year, after meeting Xiao Nuo, life really changed a lot.I have never had the habit of cooking by myself before. Although I have learned it, I have never practiced it. Until I met him, I would habitually go to the supermarket or vegetable market to buy vegetables every day. I also learned how to bargain and look at things. good or bad.

This person is obviously timid and does not have the capital of arrogance, but he always has that spirit.

Ye Mushi lay on the bed, reached for the cabinet next to the bed, and picked up a photo frame without looking at it.

Xiao Nuo is the only person in the photo in the frame, which was secretly taken by Ye Mushi when he was on Lantern Street in the northeast.

Ye Mushi looked at him in the photo, his eyes were full of longing.I want to laugh but laugh so weakly, I really want to grab the person directly from the photo, and ask him why he is so timid again, and actually ran away without saying a word.

"I know what kind of person you are. No matter what your choice is, as long as you can come back, I have been waiting for you. The fact that my sister-in-law's case has come to this day is enough to prove that you are a capable person, which is beyond me. unexpected."

-

On a near-winter night, the starless mountain village was filled with darkness, and the strong wind ravaged the surrounding crops and houses.

Ye Mushi sat under the dim light and looked at the materials in his hand. There was no internet in the notebook, but fortunately, he could still code and write materials, and he could hand them over to Zhou Shu when there was internet.

It has been almost two months since I came to this small mountain village. During these two months, Xiao Nuo found this place according to the hometown described by Yuan Qiu.

After settling down for more than a month, Xiao Nuo finally found Yuan Qiu's natal family.When I arrived at her home, I saw two little girls. They grew up very healthy, but because their mother was not around, their relatives did not treat them very well.

Xiao Nuo talked to their grandfather about Yuan Qiu, and wanted to take the children away, but Xiao Nuo was just an outsider, so they naturally refused to hand over the children to him.

Xiao Nuo thought that since he couldn't take the children away, and the drug addiction hadn't subsided anyway, he would forcibly withdraw them here, and it wouldn't be too late to take them away at that time.

The drug addiction was always frequent in the first two months, and the number of attacks has gradually decreased recently.The busyness of work made Xiao Nuo forget about it, it has been a week since the last attack,

Xiao Nuo sat in front of the computer and typed, sometimes looked down at the information, and suddenly felt sleepy while looking at it. He wanted to persevere, but he couldn't persevere like before. He reached out and touched his face, only to find that his eyes were streaming with tears.

He froze for a moment, then lowered his head to look at his arms, goosebumps spread all over at some point.Xiao Nuo sniffed involuntarily, turned off the computer, got up and quickly locked the big wooden door of the house, ran to the bed, picked up a piece of cloth, stuffed it into his mouth, tied himself with a rope, tied a simple knot and lay down on the bed .

Closing his eyes, Xiao Nuo's body began to feel very weak and chilly, and then there was an unbearable itching, like thousands of insects moving in the body, the itching turned into pain, piercing to the bone The pain spread all over his body, causing him to roll and struggle on the bed.Whether it is a tooth or a finger, this pain spreads to every part of the whole body, large and small.

Xiao Nuo, who suffered from drug addiction, had a splitting headache, his twitching body finally made him unbearable, his eyes were wide open, his face was flushed, sweat and tears mingled, and he fainted away.

It was noon of the next day when he woke up again, Xiao Nuo got up hungry, made himself a cup of instant noodles, and turned on the computer to type again.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, Xiao Nuo thought it was a passing child taking pictures, so he ignored him, and after a while, there was another knock on the door again, and Xiao Nuo quickly ran to open the door.

When I opened the door, I saw a dark-skinned and thin old man standing outside the threshold, holding a black plastic bag in his hand.

"Uncle Yuan, what can I do for you?" Xiao Nuo was a little surprised to see Uncle Yuan coming to the door, forgetting the pain last night, and greeted Uncle Yuan with a smile.

"First—let's go into the room and talk." Uncle Yuan seemed to have something on his mind, but he didn't want too many people to know, always looking around from the corner of his eyes, calling Xiao Nuo to come into the room and talk in a low voice.

Xiao Nuo went back to the room and sat on the edge of the old wooden bed. When Uncle Yuan entered the room and saw the instant noodles soaking in the water next to the computer, he hesitated in his heart whether he should entrust the matter to the young man in front of him.

Uncle Yuan sighed silently, and asked Xiao Nuo, "Why did you appear in this place?"

Xiao Nuo hesitated for a moment, wondering if he should tell the truth, but once he told the truth, he was afraid that Uncle Yuan would not dare to hand over the children to him.

I'm sorry, it's all for the sake of the children.Your two elders are taking care of them, and the family can't stand it anymore. If they are the only ones left after a hundred years, I'm afraid they won't be happy.

"Sister Yuan Qiu asked me to, and she left the money with me." Xiao Nuo got up to look for the bag, found a card from the wallet, and wanted to pass it to Uncle Yuan, but he refused.

Uncle Yuan put the cards back on Xiao Nuo, and said with a bitter face: "You take the money, it's useless to leave it to the two of us old people, it will be in the hands of others sooner or later."

There are many brothers and sisters in Yuan Qiu's natal family. Yuan Qiu was the first eldest daughter to walk out of the mountains, and her family loved her since she was a child. Can't go back.

No matter how embarrassing her family is, her parents still love her after all.She ran home and secretly gave birth to a child, but her parents accepted her and even raised the children to this day.

"What do you mean by that? How can you not accept the money that sister Yuan Qiu gave you?"

Uncle Yuan put the black plastic bag in Xiao Nuo's hand, and said with a choked voice: "When Yuan Qiu left, the brothers and sisters in the family were all young, so the relationship must not be much. My second elder took care of the good girls. They have treated each other coldly for so many years. Now that the sons of the family are going to separate, they will see them as thorns in their eyes. I want you to take him away. Didn’t you say that you can take them back to find their father? "

Uncle Yuan looked at Xiao Nuo with helpless eyes, hoping that he really treats his granddaughters well and is not looking for children for some purpose.

"Okay, if you want to see the children in the future, you can go and I will write you the address." Xiao Nuo took out a piece of A4 paper without haste, and wrote down his address and contact information on it.

"Master, thank you for your willingness to hand over the child to me. Unfortunately, I have to take the child away now."

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Uncle Yuan held the A4 paper Xiao Nuo gave him, his eyes full of worry.

Xiao Nuo turned on the computer and showed Uncle Yuan the evidence collected by Zhaoqian during this period, thinking that it was a photo of Gu Yuanyang and others.

"His name is Gu Yuanyang, the father of the children, and his brother-in-law Ye Mushi." After introducing his in-laws, Xiao Nuo found a photo of Zhang Zishui, "Her name is Zhang Zishui, this person may be the one who killed Sister Yuan Qiu The murderer, the reason why I came here is because of her. Now that you are willing to hand over the child to me, I have to take the child and leave as soon as possible, and proceed to the next step of the plan to solve the case as soon as possible and return Sister Yuan Qiu's innocence."

"Where is our family Yuan Qiu now?" Uncle Yuan asked with red eyes and lowered his head.

"Only Gu Yuanyang knows. I'll ask you if I have a chance. What is this thing?" Xiao Nuo opened the plastic bag, and there were some certificates inside, which were the birth certificates of the children, and some documents similar to the company's work information.

"Yuan Qiu gave it to me before she left the village. She said she was going back to divorce the child's father, and put it with me temporarily so that it would not be stolen."

"Did she say what it is?" Xiao Nuo looked at the document, until he saw the word embezzlement of funds before he vaguely understood it. "This is something from five years ago. The funds have been embezzled and may be returned now. Can they still be found?"

"She didn't tell me what it was, she said it was for the father of the children."

Yuan Qiu never mentioned this matter to Xiao Nuo, and probably forgot about it.But why didn't you give it to Gu Yuanyang yourself, but put it with your father?Or, was the time too late?

-

Yuan Qiu's twin daughters have a mother's look between their eyebrows and eyes, and their nose is very like their father's, tall and straight.The two little girls also looked exactly the same, at first Xiao Nuo couldn't recognize who was who, so he cut his hair long and short according to his own preferences.

The eldest girl has a more lively personality and likes short ones, while the second girl is introverted and has long hair. In normal times, grandparents and grandparents are well disciplined and will not make trouble and make loud noises.When Xiao Nuo came to their house and said he wanted to take them away, he refused to leave at first, but he reluctantly followed Xiao Nuo when he heard that he was going to see his parents.

Xiao Nuo took them to a temple, where monks practiced martial arts, and because it was located between high mountains, there were few people coming and going.

The first time Xiao Nuo got here, he called Zhaoqian, wanting him to come over, and asking him to do something.

A week later, Zhaoqian found this place, and when he came, he was accompanied by a person, who was dressed in professional attire and looked very handsome.

"This is my friend Lian Hong. If you have any difficulties, you can ask him for help. Don't worry that someone will find him."

Lian Hong stood aside and listened to Zhaoqian's introduction of himself. He was a little speechless at once, but he agreed with a good temper.

☆, Gu Yuanyang came to the door

Xiao Nuo handed over the plastic bag given to him by Uncle Yuan when he came, and asked him to deliver it to Gu Yuanyang, but he couldn't go out for the time being.

Zhaoqian didn't ask any further questions, turned around and was about to leave with the black plastic bag and Lian Hong, when he suddenly remembered something, stopped in his tracks and called to Xiao Nuo.

"Let me tell you something. If there are no accidents, Yuan Qiu will be able to freely enter and leave that house next month."

When Xiao Nuo heard this, he hugged the two little girls excitedly, thanked Zhaoqian repeatedly, and pulled the two little girls to follow suit.

Zhaoqian didn't pay much attention to these two little girls at first, but he was even more suspicious when Xiao Nuo used him like this.

"Could this be Yuan Qiu's daughter, right? You really have big intentions." Zhaoqian looked at Xiao Nuo with admiration. He really didn't expect him to be so bold in just two months.

"Didn't Zhang Zishui threaten you? How dare you interfere with Yuan Qiu's affairs?"

Feeling guilty, Xiao Nuo greeted the two girls to go back to the temple first, and slowly expressed his true thoughts these days.

"Although I ran away, I feel so ashamed of them when I think about how they took care of me before."

"Then you can discuss with them, why do you want to run out alone?"

Xiao Nuo still had that guilty look, and said: "I ran out that day, and I really didn't think about going back, because they threatened me, and I was worried that they would hurt my family. Later, the more I thought about it, the more I felt it, so I called you for help. "

Lian Hong thought it was ridiculous, and joked directly: "Why didn't you call the police? Running out would only make them hurt people more, wouldn't it?"

Xiao Nuo shook his head and smiled wryly: "I can't help it. I'm an ordinary person with no money or power. I can't stand them."

"Then take good care of the children, and I'll tell her when I get back." Zhaoqian turned and left.

-

As soon as Xiao Nuo left the mountain with his front foot, Ye Mushi stepped into it with his back foot.

When I came here, I was accompanied only by a local old man to lead the way. As soon as I brought him to Yuan Qiu's mother's house, the old man left in a hurry.

"The pigs at home haven't been fed yet, so I'll go back first, you go in." The old man explained, looking back at Ye Mushi as he walked.

The door of Yuan Qiu's natal house was open, and from a distance one could hear the screaming of children and the laughter or cursing of adults.

Ye Mushi recalled the scene when the old man left in a hurry, which made him hesitate to move forward.

"Forget it, why don't you just inquire about something, I won't be able to eat it." He raised his head and continued to move forward with his luggage, walked outside the gate and raised his voice to greet him.

After a while, a child about six or seven years old ran out from the back room. When he asked Ye Mushi who he was looking for, a fat old lady came out from the back room.

"Young man, who are you looking for?" Seeing Ye Mushi's attire as if he came from the city, the fat aunt said that there was only one person in the family and the generation gap between the people in the city was the deepest, and her tone was a bit hostile.

Ye Mushi didn't remember Yuan Qiu ever mentioning anyone's name in the family, so he had to mention her name.

"Yuan Qiu." Ye Mushi said.

"Who's here?" There was another scream of a child in the room, accompanied by a soft questioning voice.

The fat aunt rolled her eyes, and said disdainfully towards the back room: "Maybe this Yuan Qiu has caused some suspicion in the city, and everyone has come to the door."

Ye Mushi stared at her. The fat aunt just turned her head and saw Ye Mushi staring at her. She was startled at first, and then yelled at him: "What are you staring at? Did I say something wrong? Otherwise, why did you stare at her back then?" Will she be ashamed and thrown into the village?"

Ye Mu really didn't want to quarrel with her, so he respected others, held back the anger in his heart, and asked, "Excuse me, is sister Yuan Qiu's child here?"

When the fat aunt heard this, she said with a "heh" sarcasm: "I have been running away for so many years, leaving two children here for free and without leaving any money to come back. Now I have the face to come back to find the children. Heh— —Let me tell you, the children are all given to others, and you don’t have them anymore.”

Ye Mushi was so angry that his eyes widened when he heard the child was given away, and was about to get angry when Uncle Yuan heard the movement from the room and came out.

Uncle Yuan asked softly: "Is this—the uncle of Yuan Qiu's family?"

"You recognize me?" Ye Mushi was a little surprised.

Uncle Yuan nodded and said he recognized, winked and lowered his head to let his siblings go back.

"Someone took the child away a few days ago, didn't you know?"

Ye Mu was really panicked, how could he know, he just learned of the existence of the child, and not long after he learned of the address, less than a week later, he was told to give it away.

"I don't know his name. He only said that someone caused him to hide here. His surname is Xiao."

As soon as Uncle Yuan said the word "Xiao", he knew who it was without guessing.

Unexpectedly, unexpectedly, you came here.I underestimated you, Xiao Nuo.

"How is he? Injured or sick?"

"Maybe we don't live well here. We eat instant noodles, and our face is very pale."

There was not much words after that, Ye Mushi didn't stay in the village for a moment, and hurried back home with his luggage.

I didn't see the child in the village, but Xiao Nuo felt relieved that the child was by his side.

It's just that I was still a little worried about his situation, and disappeared without a word. It turned out that he came here, but he didn't take good care of himself when he was outside. He can cook no matter how lazy he is on weekdays.

As soon as he got home, Gu Yuanyang was already off work and sitting in the living room watching the news on TV.

Xiao Nuo put the luggage aside, lay down on the sofa from exhaustion, and looked at Gu Yuanyang with his eyes open.

"Brother, I went to my sister-in-law's natal house." Ye Mushi kept watching Gu Yuanyang's reaction, only to see that his eyes were still fixed on the TV, and he didn't take his words seriously at all.Just when Ye Mushi stood up and was about to speak, he reacted.

"What are you doing there?" Gu Yuanyang didn't have a good impression of Yuan Qiu's natal family.

I remember that Yuan Qiu returned home less than half a year after marrying him. After returning home, there was no smile on his face, and even his eyeballs were red and the bags under his eyes were swollen.

At that time, my relationship with Yuan Qiu was not confirmed, so I didn't ask more questions.When I asked her later, she didn't say much, she just said that she would never go back to her mother's house.

"They are all unreasonable mountain people, you should stay away from those people."

Ye Mushi nodded: "I'm sure it's unreasonable, but there is something I must tell you."

Gu Yuanyang turned off the TV and turned to look at Ye Mushi with a puzzled expression.

"Since Yuan Qiu lost contact with us, she has been staying at her mother's house." Ye Mushi never understood why Yuan Qiu wanted to hide the existence of the child, and even rushed out to get divorced just after confinement.

"Brother, you know
