dream warm snow fragrance

Min Xiang's face suddenly turned pale, and he turned to look at Aunt Gu, "I didn't take him with me. He's been here for so long, isn't it possible that he hasn't been here all this time?"

Aunt Gu's face was also pale, "I didn't see him when I came out of the kitchen, I thought he was arguing to go with you again, so you took him to find Changqing."

Not far from here is the red light district of Yongjing City, brothels, small men's houses, and prostitutes. The Min family is very aware of these, and they also understand that some of the beautiful children in the courtyard are abducted by kidnappers. Yes, he was beaten and scolded as a child, trained in piano, chess, calligraphy, painting and pleasing people, and then he just grew up and began to entertain guests at the age of twelve or thirteen.

Therefore, the Min family knows best what will happen when their child is lost.

Everyone was terrified.

Min Xiang was the first to come back to his senses, suppressing his fear, and said, "Maybe he climbed into bed and slept by himself."

As he said that, he quickly ran to the bedroom. The quilt on the bed was well folded, and there was no one there.

I went to open the closet again, and looked under the bed and under the couch, but there was no one there.

Min Changqing and Gu Auntie also searched everywhere at home, but there was no one like Xiao Ru'er.

Min Xiang said to Aunt Gu while going far away, "He might be at the neighbor's house, look around, he can't go far."

The family quickly dispersed to find someone. Min Xiang asked the neighbors around, and they all said that they did not see Xiao Ruer. It was noon when Xiao Ruer went out, and everyone was having lunch or already taking a nap. Where will I come out to see Xiao Ru'er?

And Min Changqing and Aunt Gu also went along the other side to ask the neighbors, but they both said they didn't see it.

When they came home again, the faces of several people were even more ugly.

Min Xiang panicked and didn't know what to do. After forcing himself to calm down, he said, "Go a little farther to see it. You go to the street out of the alley to the south and ask. See if anyone has seen it. I'll go north and ask."

Min Xiang couldn't care less. He came out of Sanshui Alley and went north to the Yongdong River. There were many brothels, gambling houses, and restaurants. He went to ask one by one, and asked people he saw on the street, but no one looked at them. To a little doll about five years old wearing blue clothes.

Aunt Gu and Min Changqing did not ask about the result, and when it was getting late, there was still no result.

At this time, Min Zhenru had already been taken to a family not far from the gate of the city. In the firewood room in the backyard, five children, ranging in age from three to four to six or seven years old, were imprisoned with their hands bound. mouth.

Xiao Ru'er just went out and wanted to follow her father to the place where her second uncle worked. Unexpectedly, she turned one alley and then another, but she couldn't see Min Xiang. He got lost and was sitting down at the base of the wall and dozing off. A man came over to hug him. Before he could struggle, he was already fainted by drugs. When he woke up, he was in a pile of firewood. Because he had just woken up, he had not been gagged, nor Hands tied.

As soon as he saw this situation, he understood what was going on.

Although she is only five years old and only knows how to eat, Xiao Ru'er is not stupid.

I followed Min Xiang and the others to many places since I was a child, and met abductees on the road, traffickers who sold people, and sold their bodies to bury their fathers...

Although he understood what was going on, he was still terrified and panicked, because Mrs. Gu had instilled in him many tragic things that would happen after being abducted.Although he was quite frightened, he was neither stupid nor barking.

When it was dark, an old woman threw a comatose child in again, and brought them food, saying that it was food, just a steamed bun for each person, and a water bottle.

The bound children were also untied and the cloth was ripped off from their mouths. The old woman said, "If you want to run away again, you will pull out your tongues and cut off your legs. It's so easy to tie up."

Min Zhenru stared at the old woman with dark eyes, the old woman thought he was frightened, and said, "Don't bark, eat."

Unexpectedly, Min Zhenru said, "Grandma, is there no rice? I don't like steamed buns."

The old woman was taken aback for a moment, but was amused by him, and said, "There is no rice."

She sat at the door of the firewood room and ate steamed buns by herself. The other children were trembling and did not dare to take the steamed buns. Min Zhenru was the most daring. He took a steamed bun in the past and was about to eat it. He is starving now. However, he found that the other children were looking at him, so he carried the steamed buns to each of them. After eating two mouthfuls, he felt dry and wanted to carry the water bottle to drink water, but found that the water bottle was too big and heavy to carry, so he had to Then I said to the old woman, "Grandma, can I have a bowl, because I can't drink water without a bowl."

The old woman looked at Min Zhenru, wondering whether the most beautiful of all the children was a fool or a brave one, but after all, she was only five years old, so she would not be too vigilant, and handed him the pottery bowl in her hand , Min Zhenru walked over to pick it up with his calf, and said "thank you" politely.

The old woman thought to herself, this is probably the son of a rich family, but the clothes he was wearing were very ordinary, and he didn't wear any gold bracelets or silver bracelets, only an amulet, so he didn't look like a child from a rich family.

They generally don't abduct the children of rich families. They only abduct the children of ordinary people for fear of accidents. Even if these families lose their children, they don't have the money to find them everywhere. Let it go.And these families, even if their children are lost, they will not have to find them. If they lose their children, they will just have to give birth again.

It was dark, and the family couldn't find Min Zhenru. Aunt Gu cried so much that she was about to pass out, and she kept blaming herself, "It's all the old lady's fault. I didn't keep him in check. If I did, what would he do?" will go out."

Min Xiang comforted her, "Grandma, don't panic, you will definitely get him back." In fact, he also blamed himself, he thought it must be because he didn't pull the yard door to close when he went out Strict, otherwise Min Zhenru wouldn't be able to open the door and get out.

They asked Mrs. Gu to stay at home, and maybe anyone who had news about Min Zhenru would find her home to report. He went out with Min Changqing again, and went to see every well around, for fear that Xiao Ru'er would fall into the well, but If I really fell into the well, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive after such a long time. Fortunately, I didn't see any wells, so I was relieved and scared at the same time.

There are three big rivers passing through the city of Yongjing, and several tributaries of the big rivers. Artificial rivers and canals connect these rivers and tributaries. The water system here is developed so that it will not be troubled by drought. Generally, it will not be threatened by floods, so it can always enjoy prosperity here.

However, with such a well-developed water system, there are many cases of drowning in water every year, most of them are children, and some are murdered and thrown in the water.

Min Xiang and Min Changqing searched for the place downstream of the water system here, asked people, and said that the child's body was not found, so they were relieved again.

When Min Changqing went to report to the government, Min Xiang went back first to see if there was any news from his family.

When they reached the back door of Jiang Chuyan's house, Sun Sanniang came out and called Min Xiangdao, "Mr. Min, there is news about Xiao Ru'er."

When Min Xiang found this moment, he was heartbroken and in a trance. He shook his head, "Not yet."

Sun Sanniang said, "I sent a message to my young master. The young master has some contacts in his family, which should be helpful in finding Xiao Ru'er. I hope to find Xiao Ru'er sooner. He is so smart and likable, so nothing will happen to him. "

Apart from saying thank you, Min Xiang couldn't say anything.

When he returned home, Aunt Gu sat in the main room with candles on, waiting for Hope alone. When she saw Min Xiang coming back, she greeted her and asked, "Is there any news?"

Min Xiang shook his head, "There's nothing in the well or in the river. I'm afraid they were abducted by someone. However, there is some hope that they can be found. Sister, don't panic, or the house will be a mess." Group, but no one to support."

Aunt Gu held back her tears and said, "Xiao Ru'er is fine."

At this time, Xiao Ru'er was sleeping in that firewood house, and there were fleas and lice in it, biting him so badly that he couldn't sleep well, and it was so cold that he just shivered there, regretting that he went out and didn't listen to his father. If so, don't go out casually.

He didn't know if his father would come to find him. He was really homesick, and wanted to be hugged by his father to sleep in his arms, warm and fragrant. Originally, he wanted to make new clothes today. Make sweet and sour fish and fry meatballs.

Rong Jian learned that Min Zhenru, the son of the Min family, was lost and could not be found anywhere. It was already night, and he went into the palace in the afternoon to talk with the emperor for a while, stayed in the palace for dinner, and then returned to the mansion. .

As soon as he came back, he was told that Sun Sanniang sent someone to tell what happened to the Min family.

Rong Jian was stunned for a moment, originally it was good to arrange for Luo Shi to go down to do this matter, but the sudden throbbing in his heart made him unable to calm down, and followed him to Min's house.

The courtyard door of Min's house was not closed at all. Luo Shi pushed open the courtyard door and Rong Jian walked in. Min Xiang was coming out of the main room. It seemed that he was about to go out again. He's face was very unclear in the dim light. When Min Xiang saw him, he said, "Mr. Jiang, I know you have contacts in the capital. You must help me with this favor."

He stepped forward, looking at Rong Jian with fear in his eyes.

At that moment, Rong Jian's whole heart was about to be overwhelmed by him.

And Min Xiang also saw Rong Jian clearly at that moment, because Rong Jian came in a hurry and forgot to change his appearance, and Luo Shi actually forgot to remind him.
