Ever since Yun Ji woke up from a muddleheaded state a month ago, he has seen very few people, but he is very familiar with this voice. It is his neighbor and landlord——Chen Shuo, who looks as strong as his name suggests. Very big.

Yunji doesn't like him very much for two reasons. First, he likes to beat his wife, which often makes him sleepless when the neighbors are crying and howling.

Chou Niang is ugly, but that is mainly because she has scary white spots on her face, but her facial features are very good when you look closely, and she is in her youth, and her figure has never been like other women in the village. Similarly, if they become thick or shriveled, if you only look at the back, his ugly mother is actually very pleasing to the eye.

But this man belongs to the typical kind of evil heart but no courage, so he dared to sneak a glance or say a few obscene words.

The door was slammed open, and Chou Niang's first reaction was to rush to hug Yun Ji and pat him to coax him, fearing that he would do something wrong, seeing Yun Ji not crying or fussing, she looked at herself with a pair of clear eyes , suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, put him down again, turned around, tried to completely block his son with his slender body, and said angrily: "Who are you? Get out of my house!"

It was the first time for the soft-spoken Chou Niang to scold someone so loudly, but the trill in her voice revealed her uneasiness to everyone.

"Your home?" The one who spoke was Chen Shuo's daughter-in-law, a skinny woman, with a shrill voice: "It's just a joke, I just lent you a few days, when did it become your home?"

Chou Niang said angrily: "I gave the rent, before the lease expires, this is my home!"

"Bah!" The skinny woman spat on the ground and said, "It's yours to live with you? What do you do with those few copper coins? I was moved because of the pity of your orphans and widows. talent……"

Chen Shuo saw that the woman was still in the mood to chatter at this moment, and said impatiently with a sullen face, "Okay!"

And said to Chou Niang: "Save some face for you, get dressed and come out quickly! The poor man is waiting outside!"

In front of outsiders, Chen Shuo seemed a bit of a gentleman. Although he kicked open the door, he stood in the courtyard and did not come in. He turned his face away when he spoke.

Chou Niang bit her lips and looked at the skinny woman. The woman said impatiently: "What are you looking at? I have to watch you here, so you don't have to run away. When I turn around, the official will punish us for the crime of harboring and sheltering us. Who to complain to? Besides, with your ghostly appearance, who cares to look at you? I accidentally glanced at you on weekdays, and at night I would have half-night nightmares..."

She kept talking, but no one listened. When she said the first sentence, Chou Niang silently passed her and closed the door. She put on her coat in a daze, but kept her eyes fixed on Yun Ji, as if she had a thousand words to say. It's hard to say a word with trembling lips.

No matter how slow the movement is, there will always be a time when she is dressed, and the ugly mother will pick up and put down the child who is lying quietly on the bed, put down and pick up...

It's uneasy to take it out, and it's even more uneasy to stay...but there's not even a single person to trust.

my poor child...

The tears just fell like rain at this moment, no matter how you wipe them, you can't wipe them away.

Seeing her appearance, the skinny woman who had been chattering couldn't bear it any longer. She turned her face to "cut" and muttered, "It's not my own child. Who will show this appearance to me?"

Chou Niang suddenly looked up at her like an enraged lion, and said in a hoarse voice, "What did you say?"

The skinny woman was suddenly taken aback by her aura, couldn't help taking a step back, and refused to lose the wind, she sneered and said: "It's not what I said, do you have the ability to yell at the officials outside?"

Chou Niang ignored her, bit her lips, wrapped Yun Ji in her arms with a small quilt, and walked out slowly.

Anyone can feel her uneasiness and fear, but the only thing Yun Ji can do is stretch out his hands and hug her neck tightly, giving her the pitiful warmth and courage.

There were a dozen people standing in the small courtyard outside, some men and some women, two of them were dressed in official clothes with big knives hanging from their waists, but the one in the middle was not them, but a man in his 50s or [-]s who looked like a housekeeper, dressed very carefully, Followed by two servants and a few servants.

Outside the yard, there were many watching villagers, pointing and whispering.

The skinny woman followed behind Chou Niang, passed her as soon as she went out and rushed to the side of the two men in uniforms, saying: "It's her, gentlemen!"

Pointing at Chou Niang, she said with righteous indignation: "When she came here, I felt that something was wrong. How could such an ugly woman give birth to such a clean and beautiful child? And the child was only more than a month old at that time, and she had no milk at all. , Is this possible? Also, this woman often locks her child at home by herself, going out for a whole day, not even coming back to take a look, not even caring whether she is dead or alive... how can there be such a cruel heart in the world mother?"

This "reasonable and well-founded" statement makes Yunji admire her, if she hasn't learned how to walk, she must rush up and scratch her two paws: This woman, who is clearly greedy for the benefits of the ugly mother, swears that she will She looked at herself for her, but she didn't look at her from morning to night, and put all the food left by the ugly lady into her own stomach, and then came to complain, saying how many times she had urinated and how long she coaxed her. I feel, how much to eat and so on with me...

Yun Ji gritted her teeth: The bullying young master can't speak, right?When you turn around, you will be bitten by Dahei and cry!

Thinking of Dahei, Yun Ji was startled, and turned around to look around, and finally found a motionless black shadow under the wall, but the nine-month-old child's eyesight was not good, and the moonlight was dim, and the torchlight was shining again. If you don't get there, you can't even tell whether you are dead or alive.

Although he was worried, the sword was on the verge of breaking out, and he was obviously not allowed to investigate the life and death of a dog first... The face of the ugly woman who was holding him tightly was not much better than death.

But Yun Ji didn't think that this time would be so dangerous. The people who came here were obviously not the two official servants at the top. The one who was in charge should be the man who looked like the housekeeper, but if these people came to find the lost child , it was too peaceful, and Yun Ji never doubted that Chou Niang was his real mother.

Inside or something else?Or just a misunderstanding?

It was the old housekeeper who spoke first. He coughed lightly, and Chen Shuo quickly pulled his wife who was still chattering. The thin woman shut up quickly, and the old housekeeper said: "Young lady, don't panic, we are not Bad guy."

After a pause, he said: "The thing is like this, our wife gave birth to a son ten months ago, and was hated by the villain in the house, so he quietly stole the young master and sold it to human traffickers. We found it after a lot of hard work. The trafficker, the trafficker said, sold the young master to a...uh, a girl with a strange appearance. We searched everywhere and found your whereabouts, girl. Because we were afraid of causing misunderstanding, we asked two officials to be witnesses.

"Don't worry, our Gu family is not unreasonable. I just ask you to return my young master. We will return twice as much money as you spent, and we will also give you a big thank you."

When the skinny woman heard the words, the pride faded from her face, and she was a little resentful. If it wasn't for the presence of the official, she might have spit out again: It turned out that she didn't abduct the child, but bought someone else's abducted child!But that's not a good thing either!But she was even willing to pay for such a good family!What a bargain for her!

Ah, by the way, she also takes care of this child!This woman has money to take, why can't she lose her share, right?

She was thinking about how to open her mouth to show her contribution, but the ugly mother over there was relieved, like a death row prisoner who was suddenly pardoned when he was about to be executed, both ecstatic and dazed.

It turned out to be just a misunderstanding, fortunately it was just a misunderstanding...

Her legs were shaking slightly, and it took a while for her to recover, her face recovered a bit of blood, and she said: "Old man, you have found the wrong person, Bao'er is my son, not your young master. "

Seeing the suspicious look on the old housekeeper's face, she obviously didn't believe her words, the ugly lady hesitated for a while, bit her lips and said: "I was originally from Qu County in the south of the Yangtze River, and my husband's family name is Yun. Her husband passed away half a year ago. Seizing the family property and kicking the concubine, mother and son out of the house, if the old man doesn't believe it, he can go and find out..."

Chou Niang has completely relaxed at this moment, in order to make people believe, she even shakes her heels, but Yun Ji's heart is full of alarm bells.

You need to know that listening to a person's speech is the same as watching a person's writing. From the speed of speech, intonation, and the choice of words and sentences, you can tell something, such as temperament, such as emotions, but listening to this old housekeeper gives him a kind of feeling. Very incongruous feeling.

This incongruity is not hypocrisy, but rigidity.

It's like an actor with mediocre acting skills reading his lines to a script. Although it should be fast or slow, happy or angry, it's all superficial.

And he kept saying that he was looking for the child, but until now he didn't say that he would take him over to have a look... It's so fake!

So, why did the old man come here to sing such a big show?

If you want to snatch the child, just follow the woman's words, why bother?

But what else is there to plot against him and Chou Niang?

Who is this big play sung for?

The old housekeeper hesitated for a long time before saying, "It's a long way to go to Jiangnan. If... why don't you go back to Qingcheng with us first, let my wife recognize the child, and then we... This child is indeed not our young master, and he will never let the lady run away..."

Looking at the ugly lady who had completely let go of her guard and was considering the feasibility of the old housekeeper's words, Yun Ji couldn't help feeling distressed, reached out and grabbed her hair, and pulled it hard.

Chou Niang woke up suddenly from the pain, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I..."

Before finishing speaking, an elegant and calm voice came from the door: "You don't need to be so troublesome."

That voice was beautiful, but it sounded like a thunderbolt to Chou Niang's ears.

The ugly lady who thought it was a false alarm just now was like being struck by lightning, she didn't dare to take any chances anymore, her face turned pale as death in an instant, she staggered back a few steps, and sat down softly on the ground.

She trembled all over and her teeth chattered, so she didn't realize that the child in her arms reacted as badly as she did.

The child who almost never cried turned his head away in disbelief.

It was in a dream, a voice that he had never dreamed of before, and it sounded in his ears again after a reincarnation.

Seeing the slender figure approaching slowly, he closed his eyes deeply, and uttered two words that were almost □ from the depths of his throat, so vague and trembling that no one could understand.
