Chapter 172 This is the real concubine
Mrs. Song's face turned pale immediately: "You, what did you say?"
Xie Zao Zao said: "I didn't say anything."
After saying that, she pulled Fu Yanzhi to leave, but Mrs. Song hurriedly held her back: "Miss Xie, you, don't go. Tell me clearly, what's going on? Who wants two lives?"
Xie Zaozao was particularly rude: "Try to pull me again?"
Mrs. Song obediently withdrew her hand and said with an apologetic smile, "Xie Xiao-Xiao, you see, I'm old and my mind is not clear. Sometimes I speak too hastily. Don't mind it. Could you please tell me again what you just said?"
Xie Zao Zao said: "No."
Mrs. Song was choked and couldn't speak for a long time.
Seeing that Fu Yanzhi and the others were about to leave again, he was so anxious that he was sweating profusely: "Song Zhe lives in the house at the back of Qingwa Lane, the one with the tallest house. Please go and check it out, sir!"
Seeing Xie Zaozao pulling Fu Yanzhi out, she was anxious, fearing that what Xie Zaozao had just said was true. What should she do if her family was really in danger?
Xie Zao Zao pulled Fu Yanzhi out. Seeing that he still had no expression on his face, she didn't bother to guess what he was thinking. She just said, "You've been a mystic for so many years, and you don't know these people? If you rush to help them, they will be suspicious. If you turn around and leave, they will ask for your help."
Fu Yanzhi smiled and said, "I've learned a lot."
The two of them took the child out of the village chief's house and headed towards the town. Xie Zaozao didn't dare to fly the sword, but she took a ride in the carriage driven by Fu Yanzhi's Shikigami. There was a heater, tea and snacks in the carriage. Xie Zaozao hugged the child and almost fell asleep again.
It was Xiao Xingsu who woke her up in time: "Mom, don't fall asleep. You'll feel uncomfortable when you get up later."
In the blink of an eye, they arrived at the address Mrs. Song mentioned. The funny thing is that everyone said that Shao Qiaolan's husband Song Zhe went to other places to do business and make money, and he could hardly come home once a year, but the address Mrs. Song mentioned was in the town.
That is where they live. They can meet each other by walking for more than half an hour, but her whole family did not tell her.
"Is this what a family should do?" Xie Zaozao was puzzled.
"We're not really a family. We never gave birth to a child and never raised one. It's hard to expect sincerity from them."
Xie Zao had already thought of the beautiful young woman eating mung bean cake under the grape trellis and the young boy whose mung bean cake was eaten by his mother. He pretended not to care but his eyes were red.
She thought to herself, since her own mother is so unreliable, it seems like wishful thinking to expect the man’s family to treat her well.
Feeling a little uncomfortable, she tried to pull Fu Yanzhi's sleeve: "I, I will treat you well."
Upon hearing this, Fu Yanzhi hummed softly, and held her hand with his backhand. Their fingers were intertwined, looking very intimate.
System: ...I don’t want to say anything anymore. The main system is pretending to be dead, what else can it do?
The two of them walked in front holding hands. After a few steps, Xie Zaozao felt a little light on her body. Then she remembered that she could no longer carry the child on her back every day, so she turned around to look for Xiao Xingsu.
Little Xingsu followed behind them obediently. When she saw Xie Zaozao looking at her, she smiled adorably, "Mother."
Looking at Xiao Xingsu, who looked very similar to Fu Yanzhi but it was hard to tell which parts of him were similar to her, Xie Zaozao had a strange feeling in her heart for some reason.
She waved, and little Xingsu took a few quick steps, threw himself into her arms, and raised his head with a lovely smile: "Mother."
Xie Zao Zao leaned over and picked him up, walking side by side with Fu Yanzhi: "Why is it still so light?"
Little Xingsu was stunned for a moment: "Mom, I am heavier than the water tank in the yard."
Xie Zao Zao said, "That's indeed not heavy."
She usually practiced by carrying five or six water tanks in the yard, but after she became pregnant, she once had too much fun and stretched her waist, so she became much more restrained.
"Don't worry, you are still very light, and mother can hold you for a long time."
She said so.
Xiao Xingsu was stunned for a moment, a tearful smile appeared on his face, and he hugged Xie Zaozao's neck: "Yeah!"
The three of them arrived at Song Zhe's house together. Before they knocked on the door, they heard crying from inside, both a man and a woman, as if something had happened inside.
Fu Yanzhi was about to knock on the door, but was stopped by Xie Zaozao.
"Don't knock. If you knock, they won't tell the truth. I'll go check it out first."
After saying that, she jumped onto the roof with the child on her back. Perhaps she was a little excited because she hadn't been on the roof for a long time. She jumped back and forth on the roof with the child for a few rounds before she found a place to lie down obediently. She turned her head and nodded at Fu Yanzhi, motioning him to come up.
Fu Yanzhi shook his head helplessly, jumped lightly, and followed her onto the roof.
Looking down, the yard was in chaos.
The village chief was seen sitting on the ground, holding a young man in his arms and crying. Several maids and servants were pulling a woman with disheveled clothes and a disheveled face. The woman was crying loudly, holding a swaddling baby in her arms.
The village chief cried and cursed, "You unlucky star! You said your child was a lucky star, but what kind of child have you given birth to? Are you worthy of everything we've given you these past few years?"
The woman didn't listen to the village chief at all. She just hugged the baby and cried: "Baby, baby——"
The yard was in chaos, as if a wonderful drama was being staged.
But Xie Zaozao and Fu Yanzhi both looked towards the corner of the yard, where a woman was lying with her hands and feet twisted strangely, like a spider with only four legs. Her long hair hung down, her face was pale, and her hair covered most of her face, with only a pair of red lips visible.
Xie Zaozao gently raised her finger and sent a voice message to Fu Yanzhi: "Catch?"
"Grasp."
The two of them rushed towards the corner almost at the same time, their movements very coordinated.
The woman looked up, moved quickly, turned around and wanted to run, but as soon as she turned around, she was kicked down by Xie Zaozao.
Xie Zao Zao grabbed her hair and said, "I have never seen a monster in this world that dares to turn its back on me. Are you too confident in yourself?"
The ghost mother roared a few times: "I want to leave, do I have to walk backwards facing you?"
Xie Zaozao didn't waste any more time talking to her and tied her up tightly with the Immortal Binding Chain. Then she listened and there was no more noise in the yard. When she turned around, she saw that the group of people were looking at her and Fu Yanzhi.
The village chief was the first to react. He quickly stood up, straightened his clothes, and wiped his tears. "Sir, how could you... fall from the sky?"
Xie Zaozao: "Why, do I have to knock on your door and hand over a visiting card before I can slay demons and monsters?"
The village chief hurriedly shook his head: "That's not the case. I have something to trouble you with, sir—"
The village chief pulled the crying woman over and told her the whole story.
It turned out that after Song Zhe married Shao Qiaolan, they were sweet for a few months, but then problems arose one after another. The gap between their living backgrounds was too big. Shao Qiaolan was selfish and sensitive, and she couldn't do anything. She was timid when she went out to see people.
