My humble days in ancient times

Huang Guiyun was furious, but there was nothing she could do now that things had come to this. She had no choice but to work with Aunt Tian to lift Xu Ruyuan onto the oxcart, and then drove off. The wheels rolled, raising a cloud of dust.

When Xu Ruyi regained consciousness, she found herself lying in the same spot, her sister Ruyuan nowhere to be found. She quickly arose and anxiously searched the house, but couldn't find even a trace of Tian Yuhe. "Could she have run away?" Xu Ruyi muttered to herself, her heart aching with worry. She frantically searched for Xu Ruyuan.

She hurried to find Xu Qinghe again, hoping to get news about her sister there, but her hopes were dashed.

Xu Ruyi's heart skipped a beat, and she knew that something must have happened to her sister, otherwise she wouldn't have run out to play without leaving her lying on the ground.

After Xu Qinghe heard what Xu Ruyi had said, he immediately became furious. His face flushed red as he shouted angrily, "That fat lady must have taken him away. Tian Yuhe and Huang Guiyun are not good people."

Xu Qingyan, who was standing by, was so anxious when he heard this that his eyes welled up with tears. He burst into tears, his cry heartbreaking and heartbreaking. He hugged Xu Ruyi's thighs and cried, "Big sister, you must find my second sister."

Xu Ruyi's heart had been in turmoil for a long time. After hearing Xu Qingyan's tears, her heart trembled even more. She even stuttered when she spoke: "Qingyan, be good, don't cry. Don't worry, I will definitely find Ruyuan back."

Xu Qinghe looked at his younger brother Xu Qingyan seriously and reminded him again and again: "My little brother, don't run around everywhere, just wait here for us to come back. If you really can't stay and want to go back first, then drive the sheep and walk slowly home, but you must pay attention to safety, okay?" Xu Qingyan nodded obediently, indicating that he understood.

Afterwards, Xu Qinghe and his sister Xu Ruyi walked angrily towards Huang Guiyun's house. They were both furious along the way, thinking that they must find Huang Guiyun to ask for an explanation this time.

However, when they arrived at Huang Guiyun's house, they found that Huang Guiyun was not at home at all. As for Tian Yuhe, there was no trace of her at all.

Xu Ruyi stamped his feet in anger, muttering, "How dare these damned Huang Guiyun and Tian Yuhe hide from us!"

With no other options, Xu Ruyi and Xu Qinghe had to discuss a strategy. After some deliberation, they decided to split up. Xu Ruyi turned and ran towards her grandparents' house, hoping for their help; while Xu Qinghe hurried to other homes in the village, hoping to seek support from the villagers.

On the other side, after listening to the narration of Xu Qinghe and his sister, Mrs. Li was also furious. She stamped her feet and cursed: "Tian Yuhe and Huang Guiyun are really worthless."

But she quickly calmed down and pondered a solution. Suddenly, her anger faded, and she calmly said, "I think the Aunt Tian you're talking about is from the same village as Huang Guiyun's family. Don't worry, since we can't find Yuhe and Huang Guiyun right now, why don't we just go straight to Huangjia Village and look for them!" With that, Li quickly walked into the house and pulled a few taels of silver from the cabinet, pocketing them.

Then, Li said to Xu Dafu, "Boss, you go to the hillside and bring Qingyan home, and then quickly find Dachuan to help. There is no time to lose, we have to hurry to Huangjia Village!" Xu Dafu responded and ran towards the hillside.

Li and Xu Ruyi happened to run into Xu Qinghe on a small path through the village. The three of them hurried side by side as they walked to the village entrance. Then, they boarded Uncle Xu's oxcart and hurried off to Huangjia Village. On the oxcart, the three of them all had grave expressions, their minds filled with worry for Xu Ruyuan.

This was also the first time Mr. Xu had encountered such a thing, and he was completely impressed by what Huang Guiyun and Tian Yuhe did. It was incredible that they could actually do such a thing.

Uncle Xu saw that they looked unhappy, so he comforted them, "Since you already know that Aunt Tian is from Huangjia Village, then don't worry too much. I believe that Miss Xu will be blessed by heaven and will be safe."

Uncle Xu's words made everyone feel a little more at ease, but if she didn't see Ruyuan for a moment, she would be in danger.

Mrs. Li was a little panicked and said, "I hope it's as you said. God, you must bless the child to be safe and sound..."

Mrs. Li kept muttering to herself, and Uncle Xu knew that they would not be at peace until they saw their wish come true, so he stopped talking and just focused on driving the carriage seriously.

Uncle Xu whipped the old ox non-stop, causing the cart to jolt back and forth. Xu Ruyi was feeling the jolting, but now she felt even worse. Huang Guiyun and Tian Yuhe had clearly come for her, yet they had saved her from disaster as she had hoped.

Xu Dachuan went to an acquaintance to ask if there was any work he could do recently. After finishing his work, he hurried back. Unexpectedly, he ran into his father and his youngest son together on the way. Xu Dachuan was full of confusion and thought to himself: Why is my father herding sheep today?

Before Xu Dachuan could open his mouth to ask, he heard Xu Dafu say anxiously: "Ruyuan was taken away by Aunt Tian from Huangjia Village. Your mother has already gone there with Ruyi and Qinghe. You should quickly call two villagers for help and go quickly!" Xu Dafu waved his hands anxiously as he spoke, and the wrinkles on his face seemed deeper because of his anxiety.

Xu Dachuan's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, as if a huge rock had suddenly fallen into his heart. He was instantly panicked, and the worry surged like a tide, making him feel uneasy and unable to calm down. At this moment, he didn't have time to ask any more questions. He hurriedly ran away, his steps hurried, and his figure quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.

Tian Yuhe and Huang Guiyun were secretly hiding in a wasteland not far from the village entrance. There were weeds everywhere, and there were lush flowers, plants and trees intertwined to block their view. The two of them sat there stealthily, and even if they stayed there for half a day, they probably wouldn't be easily discovered.

They watched as Li slowly left the village in Uncle Xu's car, and then saw Xu Dachuan and three villagers hurried out. Without a second thought, they were definitely going to look for Ruyuan's child.

Huang Guiyun looked calm and composed at this moment, saying nonchalantly, "I didn't expect that I would be back after visiting Aunt Huang's house as I wished."

Tian couldn't help but complain, "If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have bothered so much. It's such a waste of effort."

Huang Guiyun said disapprovingly, "I originally wanted to teach that ignorant girl Xu Ruyi a lesson, but I didn't expect something like this to happen by mistake."

Tian's face was filled with fear, and her voice was trembling: "This evening, I'm bound to get scolded."

Huang Guiyun asked with disdain, "Is this all you have to be brave? This is actually a good thing. Auntie Tian is from a respectable family and knows how to make a living. We didn't sell our child, so what are you afraid of?"
