Nongmen Shenjue

Chen Shiliu was talking to Mrs. Yu in the house, while Mu Qingyan stared at his aunt with all his energy.

The little aunt hurried back to the residence, because she was a young female family member, others only thought she was obedient and shy, and she didn't want to meet the outsider, so she was not suspicious.Only she herself knew why, and when she entered the room, her heart was still beating wildly, even though she felt that the clothes were perfect, she was still afraid.

She looked at the child in her arms and said softly: "Son, mother will depend on you for the rest of her life, you have to live up to it."

Looking at it from a distance, the mother and child are warm.

But only for a moment, two lines of tears flowed from her eyes: "My son, don't blame mother, there is nothing you can do about it."

The little aunt lived alone in a courtyard, and she was served by a maid, but later she gave birth to a son, and she was given a nanny.

Yu Youcai was stingy with money. Mrs. Yu personally fed the son and two daughters of the concubine, and Mrs. Yu was the young lady of the rich man's family. It is conceivable how he would hire a nanny for the youngest son of the concubine.

Aunt Pianxiao felt that her status was different, and it was too disrespectful to feed the child by herself.She didn't say it clearly, and she didn't make a fuss willfully. She just made herself sick, so naturally she couldn't feed the child.Then Lihua cried out in the rain that Yu Youcai was a man after all, her heart was softened, and she was indeed sick, so she just gritted her teeth and asked for one, and sent her away when she was full moon.

The child was lost, and Yu Youcai took out his anger, and the demon drove the nanny away.

Mrs. Yu persuaded her a few words, and my aunt also had other ideas, so she kept him for now.

After being sad for a while, she wiped away her tears and called out, "Little Hua'er, call the nanny."

Not long after, a young woman in her early twenties came in.

The woman simply wears her hair in a bun, wears a coarse cloth dress, has thick hands and feet, her face is slightly tanned, and she looks ordinary.Presumably she was blamed for the loss of the child, her complexion was very bad, she came in with her head down, her hands tugging at the corners of her clothes, she was very timid.

The little aunt glanced at her, and said coldly: "What are you doing with your face? Is it possible that you are unhappy when the young master comes home today?"

"No, no, I, I..." The nanny waved her hands in panic, unable to utter a complete sentence for a long time.

"Before, it was the ghost mother who took the young master to bless you, so I don't blame you, and no one will blame you. You remember everything I told you." The little aunt's pronunciation was different, with obvious hints.

The nanny shook her body and nodded hurriedly.

"That's good." The little aunt changed her smile: "Come and look at the young master, how soundly he sleeps, look at this rosy little face, his hands and feet are strong. Sure enough, after the blessing of the ghost mother It's just different, my little young master is full of blessings now, he will never get sick again, and he will grow up healthy and healthy."

Mu Qingyan's eyes flashed, and the time in front of him began to reverse.

On the night before the child was lost, Yu's house was very lively.

Today is the birthday of the grandson of the Yu family. Yu Youcai is a person who is stingy with himself, and I have never seen him love his eldest son, but he loves this grandson very much. He usually gives his grandson a few coins behind his back. He took him to eat alone, and gave him two silver ingots for his birthday today.

The banquet over there was so lively that my aunt didn't go.

It's not that she didn't want to go, but that no one asked her to go, and they brought the food directly to her room.It's not intentional, the main reason is that she is now in confinement, the ancients valued this very much, it is really uneasy and kind for her to go out at this time.

But the little aunt was not happy, thinking that Mrs. Yu did it on purpose, crying and cursing in the room with the door closed, without eating.

There was a baby cot in the middle of the room, and the nanny stood by the side. She was used to losing her temper with the little aunt, and she only held the baby in her arms and gently comforted her.A newborn child is a pain in the ass, not to mention that he is weak and sick. He has caught a cold and coughed for the past two days, can't sleep well, and is always crying.

The little aunt fell asleep over there, but the nanny coaxed the child until midnight.

Xu Shi was very tired in the past few days and didn't have a good rest. The nanny was humming softly to comfort the baby, but her eyelids became heavier and heavier. After struggling for a long time, she couldn't resist the sleepiness. He fell asleep beside the crib.This sleep was extremely sound.

The child's face on the small bed suddenly turned red, it was actually a fever, but he didn't cry, but hummed uncomfortably.

If it was before, the nanny would have woken up early, but she didn't notice it tonight.

The little aunt had never taken care of the child herself, she only cared about sleeping soundly.

The sky is bright, and the creaking sound of the door next door is very clear in the quiet morning.

The nanny seemed to wake up from a dream, only to realize that she had slept like this all night, and went to see the little aunt, but she was still awake, so she breathed a sigh of relief.She was also glad that she didn't hear the child crying, and felt that the child's illness was about to recover.When she subconsciously cast her eyes on the small bed, her heart trembled, as if something was wrong.

The child's face was so pale.

The nanny had an unknown heart, so she mustered up the courage to reach out and touch the child's forehead, it was so cold.I don't know from time to time, I have the illusion that the child is motionless, and it seems that there is no sound of panting.She gritted her teeth to probe the child's breath, her eyes widened and she didn't dare to breathe. With a loud cry, she withdrew her fingers as if electrocuted.

"What is the ghost calling! Be careful to frighten the young master!" The little aunt woke up from the fright, her face full of anger.

The nurse had already fallen to the ground, pointing at the crib tremblingly: "Young master, young master..."

"What's wrong with the young master?" The little aunt was about to ask, but suddenly felt something was wrong.

The child is often sick and can't stand noise. Any noise will wake him up, but today, it's too quiet.The little aunt's complexion changed, she didn't care about putting on her clothes, she ran barefoot to the side of the little bed, and stretched out her hand to touch...

"No, I'm out of breath, son, my son, don't scare mother..." The little aunt was indeed frightened, tears rolled down, she was at a loss, her face was ashen.

Son is dead!

After a short period of grief, she thought of the consequences of this incident, and her face turned paler.

Her son is her reliance, without him, what will she do in the future?It is because she is young and can give birth, but Yu Youcai is getting old, who knows if she will have another son.Besides, could she be blamed for his son's death?The wife doesn't like her, so she will definitely take the opportunity to provoke her. What if the master gets annoyed and drives her out?

The little aunt is just a clever and careful woman, coupled with grief and panic, fearing being discovered by others, she hastily tried to save the situation, and in the end, by accident, she remembered the raging ghost mother and empress two years ago.

She first grabbed the nanny, pretended that the child was still alive, and then ordered the maid to go to the village to find the old mother.

The little aunt is the hope of the Liu family, for her to enter the Yu family, the Liu family has spent a lot of thought, and they are not willing to pay for it.As soon as the old lady of the Liu family came, she immediately agreed with her daughter's idea.The mother and daughter discussed carefully, and the mother took away the child's body that day, and planned to wait until night to find a hidden place to bury it, and then find a similar child and send it back under the guise of the ghost mother.

That night, when the family members were all asleep, the little aunt yelled that a figure with no feet on the ground had taken the child away.The play was so realistic that no one doubted it. After all, she was the child's biological mother, and the Yu family knew what the child meant to the little aunt.

Everything developed according to my aunt's hope, until Chen Shiliu's arrival three days later.

At first, the little aunt was not in a panic, but when she heard that the other party had solved the Li Liangji case and was no longer friends with Mu Shen, she immediately panicked.

She immediately sent a letter, urging her family to find the child quickly.

So, this is the scene I saw today.

Mu Qingyan withdrew his ability and sighed softly.

The child was not suffering from an incurable disease. Although his body was weak, he could grow up with careful care, but he died because of a single negligence.

"Brother Mu!"

Chen Shiliu came out from Yu's house and told Mrs. Yu's suspicion.

"I also think this is strange. If Mrs. Yu's suspicion is true, the people who can do this for my aunt must be her family. I'm going to go to the village with He Chuan to check. Where's Brother Mu?"

"I won't go. If it's really cheating, you should first find out who has a child of about the same age in the surrounding villages and towns, and the family is poor, or involved in whoring and gambling."

"Brother Mu suspects that the Liu family bought the child?"

Mu Qingyan nodded: "It's safe to buy, and if you steal it, it's easy to cause trouble, and it's even more troublesome to alert the government. I think, if they really want to buy a child, they won't choose a nearby village. They should stay far away, so as not to be recognized by others."

"Yes, Brother Mu is right."

"Then divide the troops into two groups." Before leaving the house in the morning, he asked He Chuan to write down the families who lost their children two years ago. Although it is not complete, it is enough.Adopting the principle of proximity, he planned to start from Dayu Village. Two years ago, Dayu Village was also patronized by the ghost mother. Because of this, the little aunt would use the ghost mother as a cover in desperation.

Chen Shiliu nodded: "I leave the carriage to you, I plan to go back to the city to get a horse first."

After all, the carriage is not fast, nor is it convenient to ride a horse.

Chen Shiliu planned to borrow the fast horse from the yamen, as long as he paid for the fodder.

It would be nice to have a car, Mu Qingyan didn't refuse.

Wen Jixue held a piece of paper in his hand, which recorded the address of the missing child, including the date of loss and the time when the child returned.

"Yu Tiezhu of Dayu Village." They haven't communicated with each other yet, but Wen Jixue guessed Mu Qingyan's choice, and found this household in Dayu Village from the paper.

Mu Qingyan asked the coachman to wait at the head of the village.

"Ask someone to ask." Mu Qingyan walked directly to the gate of Yu's house, and asked the doorman: "Do you know where Yu Tiezhu's house is?"

"Yu Tiezhu? The one from Fourth Master Yu. It seems that there is Yu Tiezhu. His sister is talking about marriage, and she came to entrust our wife. His home is in the north of the village. You go in along that intersection. There are two A tile-roofed house, a yellow mud yard, and a big jujube tree in front of the door, that is Yu Tiezhu's house."
