"Granny, how can you be like this? Aunt Lan is not an item!"

Hearing that, the old lady was unhappy, and reprimanded: "Do you think it's your place to interrupt the elder's words? Your husband didn't even say no, what are you yelling for? "

Su Zhi chuckled, and then went back to being a peacemaker, "Calm down, the two of you, I think big sis is right. "It's because I haven't thought it through properly that the child is not an item. I originally wanted to take out ten thousand taels of silver, but now that I think about it, it seems like I'm being narrow-minded."

When they heard that it was ten thousand silver taels, the old woman and the man both revealed astonished expressions.

"But since you insist on taking the child away, I won't stop you. "How about this, as long as you are willing to tell me who the source of this information is, I will let the child return with you."

Madame Zhou quickly replied, "Not long ago, a stranger came to our house and said that the child was brought to Xuan City and that he gave us your exact address."

Originally, his family did not plan to come and find his child. It was only because the conditions they offered were tempting enough, that they were willing to travel a thousand miles to Xuan City.

Now that the lawsuit had not been completed, the person who had brought the money had also disappeared. Zhou Yang's mother-in-law had already been in a bad temper several times.

"Don't, madam, if you really like that child, then give us the silver. You can keep the child."

Su Zhi did not answer her question and continued to ask, "What kind of person are you? What news did he tell you? "

Madam Zhou thought about it for a long time, shook her head and said: "This, I don't know, that person only said this much, he gave us money to help us find our child."

"Alright, I understand." Su Zhi nodded indifferently and instructed Dan Xue at the side, "Go wake Sister Lan up."

The maidservant entered the room and carried the little girl out after dressing her clothes.

A Jin also ran out after waking up from her stupor. She threw herself into Su Zhi's arms and cried, "Mother, please don't send our little sister away!"

Seeming to have sensed that something was wrong, the normally cheerful Little Dou Wu suddenly cried out, struggling to get Su Zhi to hug her.

When Su Zhi saw this, she could not bear it, so she told the three of them in her heart, "Don't let your child down, stay well. She's actually very smart, but she spoke a little too late. "

Mrs. Zhou Yang stood up to pick up the child. Little Dou wrapped her legs around her waist and refused to listen to her.

"Mother, Ah Jin is begging you, please don't send my little sister away!"

A Jin cried out together with the hands holding onto the Soybean Pancake.

"Bi Yue, bring Big Brother Jin back to his room."

"I don't want it, I don't want it!"

Madame Zhou took the child and tightly hugged it. Her eyes couldn't help but turn red.

Su Zhi turned her face away and warned carefully, "When she eats peaches, she will have diarrhea. She is a little allergic to things with shells on them, so it's better for shrimp and crabs to eat less. "She loves furry little animals the most. All her puppies and rabbits are dragged by her a hundred times a day …"

Upon mentioning the child's cuteness, a look of love appeared on Su Zhi's face, but she could not finish her sentence.

"Mother!" Mother! " Being hugged by this unfamiliar woman, Dou Zi screamed out in fear and reached out her hands for Su Zhi to hug.

"Little Dou Bao, stop messing around. In the future, you have to listen to your mother. Otherwise, I won't like you anymore."

The little girl looked at her in a daze, tears overflowing from her eyes. She looked at Su Zhi pitifully and said, "It's alright, I like you."

Su Zhi looked at her in disbelief, shock in her eyes.

This was the first time that she had heard the little bean bun speak so long. Joy and reluctance surged through her at the same time.

Madame Zhou quickly expressed her thanks, afraid that she would go back on her word. "Thank you Madam for reminding us, we will not disturb you any longer. I will take my leave first."

Holding the crying child in her arms, she ran out of the courtyard as if she were escaping.

Su Zhi sat upright on the wooden chair, and two streams of clear tears fell from her eyes in an instant.

She thought of the stuffed toy she had made for the child the night before and hurried to get it from her room.

A Jin's eyes turned red from crying.

"Mother!" "How heartless!"

Su Zhi's whole body shook as she pinched the furry bear in her hand. Her heart ached.

"Mother!" "If you send your sister away, will you also send A Jin away one day?"

Hearing this, Su Zhi's head buzzed. She blankly looked at the child who was huddled up in a corner crying and her mind went blank.

"I …"

No, the bean bag was picked up, but A Jin wasn't. How could that be?

"Madam, they're on the carriage!" Mother Ding reminded him from outside.

Only then did Su Zhi react and ran outside with the stuffed animal in her hand.

"Wait! Wait a moment! "

No matter how she shouted, the carriage showed no signs of stopping.

After chasing for a long time, she ran out of Spring Leaf Lane and passed through the mud path.

He stumbled all the way until the carriage was no longer in sight.

Su Zhi felt as if someone had dug up a piece of her heart. She stood there blankly, letting her tears wet her eyes.

"Rumble!"

Thunder rumbled in the sky, and spring rain, which had not shown up for several days, poured down in torrents.

After being drenched by the rain, Su Zhi walked back dejectedly.

As she was holding up her umbrella to look for someone, she coincidentally bumped into her and fell into the bushes by the side of the road.

"Aiya, Madam, are you alright?"

Su Zhi looked at her in a daze and shook her head mechanically. Her throat seemed to be stuffed with lead, and she was so calm that she could not speak.

"Madam, you're not in a good mood. Why don't you go back and rest?"

"Mother Ding, I forgot to give the little bear to the child."

Mother Ding could not bear to see her like this. She tried her best to help her up, "Let's not talk anymore, let's go back to shelter from the rain."

Su Zhi was sick. It was unknown if it was because of the rain or because she was overly worried. In short, she was sick when she came back.

Mother Ding had never seen her like this. She was so anxious that she invited a doctor to come and have a look. Even after drinking a few doses of medicine, it still didn't work.

She lay in bed for the entire day, staring at the veil most of the time. When she closed her eyes, she would think of her child's laughter and feel so sad that she wanted to cry.

After the small bean bag left, the courtyard lost a lot of laughter and chatter.

A Jin didn't want to go to school, so she squatted in the corner and sulked.

The fat rabbit in the nest was no longer happy. It was lying on the vegetable block. Big Yellow was whining as he searched the house for traces of children, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not find them.

It was pouring rain in Xuan City. A hundred miles away, a group of low-key players were heading back into the fields where the oil plants were blooming.

Seeing that the sun was about to set, Greenwood Horse rode up and asked for permission, "General, you should stay here for the night. When the first light of the morning arrives, you should head to the Imperial City and arrive there in one day."

The man riding the horse on the edge of the cliff had a grave and stern expression on his face. Looking at the setting sun from afar, he looked calm and handsome.

"No, the sooner we return, the better."

"Yes, sir!"

Xiao Qian was reluctant to part with them. After leaving for half a month, he didn't know if the woman and child were good or not. From time to time, the secret guards would send him some news, especially when they found out that someone was looking for trouble with Hua Manlou. This caused him to worry even more.

"General, a scout has sent news."

Xiao Qian took the letter from Greenwood, but before he could open it, Greenwood said, "General, your thoughts are not on tracking down the culprit. Instead, you are trying to find out the truth about Lady Su. I'm afraid that you won't be allowed in when we go back."

Xiao Qian looked at him coldly as he opened the letter. When he saw the contents of the letter, his pupils suddenly constricted.

When Greenwood saw the look of shock on his face, he asked worriedly, "General, what's wrong?"

"Hurry back, we have to hurry!"

"What happened?"

"Don't ask anymore, go back!"

The group that was resting continued on their way towards the imperial city without stopping.

A day and a night after the small bean bag had left, Su Zhi had been lying on the ground for such a long time.

With the domineering nature of this chilliness, the slightest movement would cause one's head to spin.

After having been in the room for so long, she struggled to get up. Just as she was about to leave, she heard voices coming from outside.

"It's true. Our family's Old Yellow saw it with his own eyes. That child was thrown onto the street and ignored it. He cried pitifully, his eyes swollen like peaches."

This voice belonged to Uncle Huang's aunt.

Mother Ding couldn't help sighing. "Don't let Madam hear those words. The child has already been carried away, so we can't stretch out our hands that long. I can only blame the child for being unlucky and for being born into such a family. "

"Aiyo, who says I am, but children are still pitiful. If they really are left alone, then they might become a beggar."

Hearing this, Su Zhi could no longer hold it in and walked out of the room, "Aunt, what did you say just now? What happened to my Soybean Pouch? "

When the two saw Su Zhi come out, they hurriedly shut their mouths in panic.
