The whole village is fleeing famine, fortunately I have a concubine system

He turned around and wanted to go out to find Xiaomi.

Before he walked out of the courtyard, he was stopped by Zhang Xing'er.

Old Lady Wang shook her sleeves that were being pulled by Zhang Xing'er and said unhappily:

"Don't pull me, let me go, I want to go find my good boy."

As she spoke, tears began to flow. Old Mrs. Wang, who had always been strong, hadn't cried in many years.

The tears she shed recently were all for Xiaomi. Old Mrs. Wang truly loves Xiaomi very much.

Before Xiaomi was born, Old Lady Wang had a dream about a golden phoenix.

Therefore, after Xiaomi was born, Old Lady Wang favored Xiaomi a little more.

But people are all made of flesh and blood, and sincerity will be rewarded with sincerity.

Xiaomi grew up in front of Grandma Wang and was taken care of by her personally since childhood.

After spending a long time together, Old Lady Wang no longer had her original plans.

Xiaomi is her heart, her liver, her flesh and her flesh.

Others are existences that cannot be touched.

Xiaomi has been out for a day and a night and hasn't come back yet, and there's no news yet.

This made Old Lady Wang feel as if a piece of her heart had been dug out.

Only when Xiaomi comes back can Grandma Wang feel at ease.

At this time, other people heard the noise and came out of the room.

Wang Zhuzi looked at Old Lady Wang and said, "Don't worry, Mom. I'll go out and find Guaibao right away."

Zhao Lishui also said, "Yes, mother, don't worry, Zhuzi and I will go out to find Guaibao right away."

Zhang Xing'er had calmed down by then and stopped the two people who were about to go out to look for someone.

"Brother and sister-in-law, wait a moment.

Guaibao told Daya about it when he left, and he hasn't come back yet. I guess he was delayed by something.

Let's wait a little longer. If Guaibao hasn't come back by noon, we'll go look for him again."

Old Wang felt that what Zhang Xing'er said made sense. After all, even if they went looking for her now, they would have no clue.

I don’t know where to go, so I might as well wait at home.

If Xiaomi hasn't returned by noon, go to Fengcheng and ask Magistrate Li to help send someone to look for her.

There are also people from Lotus Village who can help with the search.

There is strength in numbers, and the area they search can be wider than that of just a few of them.

So Old Wang said, "Listen to the second son's wife, let's wait a little longer."

Old Wang doesn't express his opinions easily, and usually just listens quietly to what Old Lady Wang says.

Standing silently by the side, silently supporting Mrs. Wang's arrangements with her actions.

But if it is said by Old Wang, it is basically well thought out.

There was no time when it was wrong, so Old Mrs. Wang listened to what Old Wang said and nodded.

Without saying anything more about going to look for Xiaomi, she wiped her tears and arranged for a few people to cook.

After dinner, no one went anywhere. They all looked outside, waiting for Xiaomi to come back.

Wang Zhuzi didn't even go to clean the pigsty, and didn't even feed the pigs. He just waited for Xiaomi to come back.

Daya didn't go to Fengcheng either. Ever since Xiaomi didn't come back yesterday, Daya felt that she didn't ask clearly.

I have been feeling guilty and thought that it would be better if I had stopped Xiaomi at that time.

Even if I can't stop her, I can still ask her what she is doing, and I can also go with her.

Instead of being like now, with no clue and only endless worries.

Zhang Xing'er could see that Daya was blaming herself, but she didn't feel like talking at the moment.

He just sat next to Daya, stretched out his hand and gently put his arm around Daya's shoulders.

He patted her gently a few times, silently comforting Daya's emotions.

Daya leaned on Zhang Xing'er's arm and whispered to her:

"Aunt, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I didn't take good care of my baby."

Zhang Xing'er shook her head. She had never blamed Daya.

After all, as a mother, she knows what her child is like better than anyone else.

Xiaomi has been a child with her own opinions since she was young. Unless there is something, she must do it.

There was no way Xiaomi was in such a hurry to leave without telling them in person.

You know, ever since they were kidnapped at the temple fair last time, Old Lady Wang and Zhang Xing'er have been terrified.

Xiaomi also knew that the two were frightened, and nothing happened since then.

I would tell them both in person because I was afraid they would worry.

The reason why Xiaomi didn't tell them this time must be that there was something urgent that left her no time to tell Grandma Wang and Zhang Xing'er.

Zhang Xing'er had some vague guesses, but she didn't dare to think too much about it.

It seemed that if she didn't think about it, the result would be different from what she had guessed.

She prayed to God in her heart, praying that things would not be as she imagined.

Zhang Xing'er shook her head and put aside the noisy thoughts in her head.

She comforted Daya softly, "Auntie doesn't blame you. It's not Daya's fault. Let's wait for the good boy to come back together, okay?"

Daya nodded, and the two leaned against each other, seeming to give each other some support.

They were waiting for Xiaomi anxiously and worriedly, and at the same time hoped that Xiaomi would come back safely as soon as possible.

Old Wang felt that the yard was too small and the view was not as far as the village entrance.

So after breakfast, he sat on the big rock at the entrance of the village to keep watch.

Thinking that Xiaomi would come back, he would definitely be the first one to see him.

The Wang family woke up early in the morning, and no one had an appetite for breakfast.

Therefore, they finished eating quickly, and when Old Wang reached the village entrance, it was just dawn.

There is still some mist in the early morning, and we just need the sun to come out and drive it all away.

Old Wang sat quietly at the entrance of the village, shrouded in mist.

He put his hands in his sleeves, hunched his neck and stared into the distance.

From a distance, it looks like a huge, gray, lifeless rock.

Standing quietly at the entrance of the village, I don't know what I am waiting for or perhaps expecting.

Until the sun breaks through the clouds, the warm sunlight drives away the dense mist.

This brought a little life to Old Wang.

By noon, there were no people at the village entrance except the old people who came to bask in the sun as usual and the children who were playing and running around.

There was no sign of Xiaomi, and the others had already gone home for lunch for a long time.

Only Old Wang was left, still sitting there, with no sign of getting up.

After more than an hour, Old Wang looked at the sun in the sky.

I can't hold on any longer. My patience has run out.

Move your arms and legs that are stiff and numb from maintaining the same position for too long.

He was about to go back and ask Wang Zhuzi to harness the carriage to go to Fengcheng to find Magistrate Li, while he himself went door to door asking people to help find Xiaomi.

Before I had taken a few steps, I heard the sound of hurried horse hooves behind me.

Old Wang excitedly turned his head and saw that the person sitting on the horse was a yamen runner in yamen runner's uniform.

He turned back in disappointment and continued walking forward.

But someone called out, "Old man, where is the Lord Wang's family in your village?"

Old Wang said unhappily, "I don't know. There is no Lord Wang in our village."
