Chapter 66 Knowing the whereabouts
Little Cai looked up cautiously.
Scar was staring at her with a pair of emotionless and cold eyes. Suddenly he moved and pulled Xiao Cai to his side.
Mrs. Cai smelled a faint smell of blood at the tip of her nose. She was so scared that her whole body went limp. She suddenly believed what Sun Wangcai had just said. The man in front of her had really killed someone.
"You have a pretty good face."
Although Scar was praising, his tone was cold, as if he was looking at something dead.
The next second, a dagger with a cold chill was pressed against Xiao Cai's face.
"Since you're so stubborn, why don't we just cut a few for fun? Where should we start?"
Scar smiled cruelly, and the dagger moved along Xiao Cai's cheek all the way down, finally landing on the carotid artery in her neck.
Little Cai shuddered and burst into tears: "I'll tell you, I'll tell you..."
Scar forced a smile on his face: "If you had been so good earlier, you wouldn't have to take so many beatings."
Little Cai's tears streamed down her face, and she was shaking with fear, but she managed to pull herself together and said, "Zhang Guangzong got the title of Tongsheng by cheating..."
Two hours later.
The hungry Sun Wangcai and Xiao Cai were thrown directly to the entrance of the alley.
Scar waved his hand and told his younger brother, "Go and see Shopkeeper Zheng."
The next morning, Zhang Yuniang opened her red and swollen eyes, put the prepared breakfast on the table, and looked vaguely at the gate of the courtyard not far away, as if she was expecting something.
Niuniu quickly came up to her mother and asked softly, "Mom, did you cry in your dream?"
Zhang Yuniang was thinking about her missing second son yesterday. Even though Gu Mingda kept comforting her, she couldn't help crying when she thought about it in the middle of the night. After Niuniu fell asleep, she cried in a daze for half the night before she fell asleep.
She didn't want to show her vulnerability in front of her daughter, so she shook her head and said, "Mom didn't sleep well last night."
Niu Niu stretched out her hands and acted as if asking for a hug.
Zhang Yunniang picked up the little girl, lowered her head, and gently pressed her head on her daughter's shoulder.
Niu Niu had a pleasant, light, sweet fragrance on her body, like some kind of pastry.
"Why can't Mom sleep?" Niu Niu asked in a low voice.
Zhang Yunniang didn't know how to answer. She knew Niu Niu's special physique. At a certain moment just now, she even hoped that Niu Niu could use this special ability to help her find her second son.
But after this thought flashed through her mind, Zhang Yunniang didn't say it out loud. All her thoughts turned into a sigh, and she said to her daughter: "Because I am an adult, adults are like this, there will always be many troubles."
"Can't you sleep because you have worries?" Niu Niu asked puzzledly.
Zhang Yuniang nodded slightly.
Niuniu raised her head, sighed like a little adult, and asked, "Is it impossible to be free of worries?"
Zhang Yunniang said: "It is very difficult to be free of worries."
Niuniu thought for a moment and said, "I really hope..."
Before she could finish her words, her mother covered her mouth.
Zhang Yunniang didn't want her daughter to make a wish unconsciously. In this world, one must give in order to gain. She was afraid that Niu Niu would continue to accumulate costs without knowing it, which would eventually lead to irreparable losses.
"Niuniu, it's normal to have troubles. What we need to do is to try our best to solve them instead of hoping to solve them by taking shortcuts. Do you understand?" Zhang Yuniang asked gently.
Niuniu seemed to understand and asked, "How can I solve my troubles?"
Zhang Yunniang said: "Either solve the source of troubles, or become happy."
After thinking deeply for a long time, Niu Niu suddenly stood on tiptoe, raised her little face, and gently pecked Zhang Yunniang's cheek with her lips.
"Mom, do you feel happy like this? Every time you kiss me, Niu Niu feels so happy." Niu Niu said.
Zhang Yunniang looked at her innocent and sincere appearance, and her heart felt as sweet as if she had drunk honey, and a smile unconsciously appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Niuniu put her fair and tender face against Zhang Yunniang's face and said, "Every time I cuddle with you, I feel like I've had a full meal and my whole body is warm."
Zhang Yuniang reached out and touched her daughter's soft head again and again.
Gu Zhao, who had just finished washing up, saw the harmonious scene of mother and daughter as soon as he entered the room, and immediately ran over with his legs puffing.
"I want to stick it on, too! I want to stick it on, too!"
Gu Zhao pounced on the two of them and squeezed in with his big face plate.
But the next second.
“Puff.”
“Puff.”
Niu Niu's face wrinkled into a ball. Zhang Yunniang quickly covered her daughter's nose and looked at her unlucky son with disapproval.
Gu Zhao smiled sheepishly and said, "I ate a lot of beans yesterday. I'm sorry, haha."
While he was talking, a few loud farts were heard.
Gu Yan, who was one step behind, turned green in the face when he heard the sound. He slept in the same bed with his brother, and he could hear the terrifying sound even in his dream last night.
"How many beans did you eat?" Zhang Yunniang asked with a frown.
She seemed to have thought of something, and opened the cabinet beside her. She saw that the bag of dry fried soybeans that was originally wrapped in oil paper had only a thin layer left. She was so angry that her eyebrows were raised: "Gu Zhao, you are eating secretly again! Are you itching for trouble?"
Seeing his mother casually picking up a feather duster nearby, Gu Zhao was so scared that he immediately ran away, shouting, "Mom, I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again. Please be magnanimous and forgive me this time!"
The room was in chaos. The big Gu Yan risked being hurt by mistake and walked in to take Niu Niu out of the door, away from the flying chicken feathers and the poisonous gas attack released by Gu Zhao.
"The house is so lively? What trouble has Gu Zhao gotten into again?"
Gu Mingda walked in from outside the house with a cold look on his face, holding a few fried dough sticks in his hand.
"Wow, fried dough sticks! Daddy went out to buy fried dough sticks!" Niu Niu cheered.
Breakfast in Qingshui Village is simple, just porridge and vegetable steamed buns. Gu Mingda feels sorry for Niu Niu, so after arriving in the provincial capital, he would go out to buy some fresh food whenever he has time, sometimes it is fried dough sticks, sometimes it is glutinous rice cake, or even steamed cakes.
Among all these breakfast options, Niu Niu likes fried dough sticks the most. She was amazed the first time she ate them.
Gu Mingda took out two cigarettes and handed them to Niu Niu and Gu Yan.
"After eating this greasy food, remember to drink some hot water, otherwise you will easily get diarrhea." Gu Mingda whispered to the two children.
He continued to walk into the house carrying his things. As soon as he entered the house, Gu Zhao jumped on him and shouted in a weird voice: "Dad, help me, Mom is going to beat me to death!"
As he spoke, his little hand dishonestly reached out to the fried dough sticks in Gu Mingda's hand.
Gu Mingda slapped his hand away in annoyance, took two quick steps to sit at the table, put the fried dough sticks on the plate, and tried not to interfere when his wife was educating the children.
Zhang Yunniang was tired from fighting and had long forgotten her previous worries. She casually picked up a fried dough stick and handed it to Gu Zhao, saying, "Go eat outside the house. You can only eat inside the house when you stop farting!"
Gu Zhao got the fried dough sticks, but he didn't think the punishment was severe at all. He ran out of the door with a grin on his face, squatted next to Gu Yan and Niu Niu, and ate them with big mouthfuls, relishing the food.
After Gu Yan looked at him warily, he carefully pulled his sister away from him. After all, no one wanted to eat in a stinking atmosphere.
In the house, Gu Mingda glanced at his three children who were still eating fried dough sticks outside the house, raised his hand to serve a bowl of porridge to Zhang Yunniang, and said softly as if unintentionally: "I found someone to pry open Cai's mouth, and Xiaoer was sold to the capital."
When Zhang Yunniang heard this, her right hand trembled and the chopsticks fell on the table.
