Lucky husband

At this time, Shanghe Village was turned upside down. Not only Li Mingjin, but also Li Qiusheng and Bai Zhiwen disappeared at the same time. When Li Caoye and Bai Yaoshi found out that their child was missing, they were even more devastated than Jiang Zhiyun.

Although the first year of filial piety has passed, Bai Yao intends to take care of her husband for three years, and her family Zhiwen will have to wait three years to take part in the imperial examination, so until now, the family still spends their time on their own. Staying quietly in the house, hardly going out.

In the afternoon, when Bai Yao got up to pour water for her son, she found that there was no one in Bai Zhiwen's house, but she saw that the pole under the eaves had disappeared. She thought he was tired from studying and went to the village to carry water Go, don't think much of it.

This is because at the beginning, Bai Yao felt sorry for his son and wanted to spend money to hire someone to cut firewood and carry water. Bai Zhiwen felt that it was really difficult for him to cut firewood. Persuaded Bai Yao.

It wouldn't take long to fetch water in the village, and Bai Zhiwen was not coming back for a long time. Bai Yao was a little anxious. After wandering around the house for a few times, she couldn't sit still anymore, so she got up and went to the village to ask.

The well in Shanghe Village is near the big pagoda tree in the center of the village. Someone came to fetch water, and people sitting and chatting under the big pagoda tree could see it.

After telling his younger son to close the door and not open it casually, Mrs. Bai Yao walked quickly to the big locust tree in the center of the village.

From the corners of the eyes of the mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law who were chatting about homework, they saw Mrs. Bai Yao: "Look, our talented lady has gone out, tsk tsk."

"Scholar's lady is just different, the way she walks is different from those of us country folks."

"When she comes out to do something, Shouxiao just guards it carefully, and runs out every three days, who knows what she has in mind."

……

Speaking of it, Bai Yaoshi is not very popular with her generation's daughters-in-law in Shanghe Village, because Bai Yaoshi looks much better than them.

Bai Yaoshi is somewhat similar to Jiang Zhiyun, both of them can read and embroider, they are both people who have not done rough work in the fields, their skin is fair and thin, compared with their peers, they are indeed several years younger.

There is a lot of gossip in front of widows, and it is not easy for ordinary widows to live. A young and beautiful widow like Bai Yao, who has lost her husband and returned home with two children, is even more likely to be gossip.

Some people always feel that Bai Yaoshi is not an honest person and will seduce their men where they can't see, so they always have a faint hostility towards Bai Yaoshi.

On weekdays, Bai Yao would stay at home as long as she could. If she had to go out, she would ask the village chief Bai and his family for help, or ask her son to come forward.

Pretending not to hear those strange words, Bai Yao tried his best to speak calmly: "Aunts, sisters-in-law, brothers and sisters, have you seen my family Zhiwen come to fetch water?"

Unlike the daughter-in-laws who dislike Bai Yao, the women in Shanghe Village think that Bai Yao is actually okay, and after returning to the village, they have lived peacefully and have not picked any troubles.

One of the women thought about it and replied, "I didn't see it."

At their age, they do not sleep much, and when the weather is good, they like to sit under the big pagoda tree after lunch, chatting and sewing shoe soles or sewing clothes.

The other women had never seen Bai Zhiwen, and asked with concern: "What's the matter, boy Zhiwen isn't at home?"

Bai Yao couldn't bear it anymore, and said anxiously: "Well, after we had dinner, I went back to the room and squinted for a while. When I woke up, Zhiwen was not at home. He hasn't returned yet. Our family He has been back to Shanghe Village for so long, and he has never gone out for so long without making a sound."

If it is a child from another family, let alone an hour, no one will bother you even if you are not at home all afternoon. The children who grew up in the village run around all over the mountains and plains. When they are hungry and have dinner, they will come back by themselves. Don't worry.

But Bai Zhiwen is different, because their family is filial piety when they return to the village. You have never seen Bai Zhiwen playing around like other boys. Every time he comes out to carry water, he will be dressed neatly. With a gentle and polite appearance, just by looking at him, everyone will feel that he is different from the boys in the village.

Bai Yaoshi didn't dare to delay, she rushed to Village Chief Bai's house non-stop, asking Village Chief Bai to come forward and ask the villagers to help her find her son.

Bai Zhiwen was Bai Yaoshi's life, she didn't dare to imagine what she would do if something happened to her son.

At about this time, the Li family found the letter stuck in the crack of the door.

Jiang Zhiyun was literate. When she read the contents of the letter, her eyes went dark, her mind went blank for a moment, and she felt that half of her sky had collapsed.

There was nothing in the letter, except that Li Mingjin was taken away, and he sent the letter to the county government office in order to bring the child back safely.

Trembling, Jiang Zhiyun read the contents of the letter to Granny Li. After Granny Li had finished listening, she immediately went out and called old man Li who was still wandering around the fields back, and told him to deliver the letter to the county government.

After old man Li left, old lady Li looked at Jiang Zhiyun, who had no master, and scolded: "What are you doing here, stupidly, go back to the house and find all the money, in case it can be used."

Old Madam Li begged all the Buddhas and gods she knew. She hoped that the person who kidnapped Brother Jin was seeking money, and then went back to the house to find money.

Old man Li hurried to the county government office and found out that not only his brother Jin was taken away, but the children of other guards were also missing.

After handing over the letter found at home to Li Chengshi, the old man Li said to Li Chengshi with a worried face: "My son, what's going on?"

So far, the county government has received 27 such letters. The moment Li Chengshi saw his father, his heart sank to the bottom of the valley.

Nowadays, no one knows the purpose of those who took away the children. Li Chengshi shook his head and said, "We don't know either. If possible, I would rather be the one who was kidnapped."

Old man Li patted Li Chengshi: "Third brother, you and the county magistrate must rescue these children."

Li Chengshi nodded: "Well, Dad, if you have something to convey to Yunniang for me, you just say that Brother Jin is a good and blessed boy."

That year when the husband and wife took Li Mingjin to Lingyun Temple to fulfill their vows, they met a master. At that time, the master said that Li Mingjin was deeply blessed and gave Li Mingjin three amulets. Later, the husband and wife were afraid of accidents. I didn't go to Lingyun Temple anymore.

What Li Chengshi said was to remind Jiang Zhiyun that Brother Jin would have prophetic dreams, and if this incident was dangerous, Brother Jin would definitely know it in advance in a dream.

The problem is that now that Li Mingjin has been taken away, even if he dreams of something, they don't know, so Li Chengshi also wants Jiang Zhiyun to go to Lingyun Temple again to see if the master is still there, and ask the master Jin Will my brother be in danger this time?

When old man Li came home, he told Jiang Zhiyun this sentence, and Jiang Zhiyun immediately understood what Li Chengshi meant, and she wiped away her tears after worrying at home all afternoon, and approached old man Li and old lady Li to propose that she wanted to go to Lingyun. temple idea.

It was a little late today, and the Lingyun Temple was closed to thank visitors, so Mrs. Li decided to leave early tomorrow morning. She and old man Li accompanied Jiang Zhiyun to visit the Lingyun Temple.

After returning to the room, Jiang Zhiyun was not in the mood to do anything, she just stood there in a daze on the window sill, her mind was in a mess, recalling what happened to Li Mingjin since she was a child, she couldn't help crying.

Li Mingkang, who woke up after sleeping all afternoon, opened his eyes and saw his mother beside him, stretched out his little hand, and shouted: "My mother, give me a hug."

The youngest son's voice brought Jiang Zhiyun back to her mind. She wiped away her tears and patted her cheek before walking over to pick Li Mingkang up and put him on a coat.

Li Mingkang is almost one and a half years old, he looked at the mother who seemed different in front of him, and blinked suspiciously: "Mother?"

Jiang Zhiyun's heart was full of anxiety, worry, and fear at the moment. She couldn't pass these things on to her youngest son, so she tried her best to raise the corners of her mouth and smiled: "Kang'er is good, mother is fine."

Although the child was young, he could feel real emotions better than adults. He still felt that his mother was weird, so he stretched out his little hand to touch Jiang Zhiyun's face, and grinned at her.

The thoughtful behavior of the youngest son made Jiang Zhiyun's heart ache even more. She thought of Brother Jin who was so sensible and cute when she was so old. She blinked to put away the tears that were about to fall again.

The child was full of energy, and Li Mingkang couldn't stay in Jiang Zhiyun's arms. He poked his head out and looked around: "Sister? Brother?"

Because Jiang Zhiyun would teach Liming Chun and Liming Xia how to embroider during the day, Li Mingkang could always see his two sisters when he was awake during the day, and his own brother Li Mingjin could see them every day, little he didn't know Why did he wake up this time, and his brothers and sisters were not there.

Hearing Li Mingkang calling her brother, Jiang Zhiyun couldn't hold back, tears streaming down her cheeks, she hugged her youngest son and said, "Kang'er, my brother went out to play, and I'll be back in a while."

Hearing that his mother's voice was not right, Li Mingkang turned his head and saw Jiang Zhiyun was crying non-stop. Li Mingkang was stunned for a moment. Jiang Zhiyun was crying very depressed, only shed tears and made no sound. He tilted his head and looked at his mother , Some are not sure what the hell is going on.

Soon, Li Mingkang judged that Jiang Zhiyun was crying, he leaned over and hugged Jiang Zhiyun's neck, and patted Jiang Zhiyun's back lightly with his chubby hands: "Ma'am, no, cry."

When Liming Kangxue walked, fell and cried in pain, Jiang Zhiyun used this to comfort him, but now he has learned to use it to comfort his mother.

At this time, Old Madam Li walked into the left room. Seeing Jiang Zhiyun who was holding the child and crying silently, she also felt uncomfortable. She coughed a few times, pulled herself together and told the news she just heard in the village: " Yunniang, Bai Zhiwen from the Bai family is gone too."

Jiang Zhiyun cried for a moment, Bai Zhiwen from the Bai family?His family has nothing to do with the county government servants, and they will disappear anyway.
