After being replaced, she changed from a miserable daughter-in-law to a lucky wife

Xiao Zimu saw that she didn't say anything and didn't make any movement: "Mom."

Xia Wanniang retracted her gaze and looked at Xiao Zimu: "Do you want me to save someone?"

Xiao Zimu didn't nod or shake his head, but started to think. In the end, he came to the conclusion that he didn't want her to take risks: "No."

Although Xia Wanniang was looking at Xiao Zimu, the corner of her eye was always watching the route taken by the man who had just carried Xia Xiaoxiao away.

That woman is Xia Xiaoxiao. She now has her hair in a bun. Judging from the time, she should have married Qian Xiucai.

Aunt Xiao noticed that the atmosphere between the mother and son was a little strange, so she walked over and said, "Mrs. Wan, what's wrong?"

Xia Wanniang looked at Xiao Zimu and then turned to look out the window: "Mother, Xia Xiaoxiao was captured by the beggars."

Aunt Xiao took a breath and said, "You are not mistaken."

Xia Wanniang nodded, then pointed at Qian Xiucai and his mother downstairs. The two were angry because Xia Xiaoxiao was disobedient and insisted on watching the acrobatics.

Qian Xiucai: "She is indeed a girl from a small family. She doesn't know any rules at all."

Qian: "Okay, stop talking and find the person quickly."

Qian Xiucai looked annoyed: "It would be better if I was caught."

When Qian heard this, she slapped him in the face: "What nonsense are you talking about? She is your wife now. If she is caught, will you still have a good reputation?"

Qian Xiucai could only hold back his anger and start looking for someone, determined to divorce her once he found her.

Out of the corner of her eye, Xia Wanniang saw the man who had just held the handkerchief walking towards the other child. Why did he target someone she knew today?

The eldest sister got separated from her family because of the large crowd. She was pacing back and forth anxiously, tears already on her face: "Mom, Dad, where are you?"

The man approached the eldest sister when no one was paying attention and covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief.

The eldest sister collapsed without even struggling.

The man quickly picked her up, as if he was holding his own sleeping child, and quickly left the busy street.

Xia Wanniang sighed: I can’t help but care about it now.

Aunt Xiao was wondering what to do. If she went to report to the police, they would have no evidence.

Xia Wanniang looked down and saw Xiao Zimu biting his lower lip. She bent down and looked into his eyes: "Zimu, stay here with grandma. I'll be out for a while. Look after my brothers and don't let them run around."

Xiao Zimu knew what she was going to do, so he grabbed her hand and shook his head vigorously: "Mom, don't go."

Xia Wanniang smiled and patted his head: "I'll be fine, just wait for me in the teahouse."

Xiao Zimu didn't know why, but he saw confidence in her eyes and let go of her hand: "Mom, you have to be careful."

Xia Wanniang smiled and nodded: "I still want to spend the New Year with my son, and I will cherish my life." After saying that, she said something to Aunt Xiao.

Aunt Xiao knew what she was going to do, so she just smiled and nodded: "We'll wait for you to come back here."

Xia Wanniang smiled and nodded, "Okay." Then she turned around and went downstairs from the second floor and disappeared into the busy street.

Xiao Zimu kept watching her disappearing figure, his small hands tightly grasping the hem of his clothes.

Aunt Xiao put her hand on his shoulder, looked down at him and said nothing.

Xiao Zilin and Xiao Zisen were so engrossed in watching the acrobatics that they did not notice Xia Wanniang had left.

Xia Wanniang walked along the route the man had taken her eldest sister. This was a secluded alley, and even at such a busy time, few people would walk here.

She didn't see anyone along the way, not even any trace of the man who had just taken her elder sister away.

He lowered his head and looked carefully for any clues that might appear, trying to find out the route they might have taken.

At a corner, she saw something, walked over, squatted down and picked it up.

This is a bead, which seems to have fallen from a red hairpin.

Xia Wanniang looked at the beads in her hand. They were not something that ordinary people could afford. An ordinary young lady would probably not walk into such an empty alley.

She made up her mind and walked into the alley where she saw the beads.
