Chapter 673: Suspicious Person in the Back Alley



Chapter 673 Suspicious Person in the Alley

Yin Le looked at Wang Chengyang's curious eyes, slowly squatted down, and with a "Ha!" he took off half of the beauty mask on his face.

As expected, the child screamed and ran to his grandmother in fear.

But he did not forget to hold the oil paper bag tightly in his hand.

He has already eaten three pieces of this egg cake today, but he still wants to eat more.

"Yin Le!"

Qin Yao, who was seeing the guests off, shouted sternly and turned back to explain to the child, "She was joking with you."

Then he smiled awkwardly at Madam Wang, "Young man, I am a little naughty. I was just teasing the child. Please don't mind it."

Old Madam Wang looked down the corridor and saw a girl with a scar on her face standing there obediently, holding a mask in her hand.

However, it was a bit difficult to hold back the smile on his face. If the master hadn't scolded him, he would have probably laughed out loud at this moment.

Everyone loves beauty, no matter if it is a man or a woman, if you have a scar on your face, you may never smile again.

It was strange that she actually used this to scare curious children.

Old Madam Wang was not angry, she just thought her grandson's reaction was funny.

There were only the two of them, the grandparents and the grandchildren, at home all year round. Jin'er's job as an inspector was not easy. He was away for ten months a year and seldom came back. The uncle and nephew had not been able to get close for long before they were separated again.

As the boy grew up, he became aware of shame and no longer stayed in his grandmother's arms to seek favor. Gradually, he developed such a dull personality without knowing how.

This was the first time she had seen someone being scared and running away like this.

Old Lady Wang pulled her grandson away from her and tapped his forehead. "Who told you to offend others? You deserve to be frightened."

"Grandma, it's her, it's her." Wang Chengyang couldn't utter a word for a long time. He held the oil-paper bag tightly in shock, and couldn't help but look at the corridor again out of curiosity.

Yin Le spread his hands apologetically and smiled gently.

The child discovered that her face didn’t seem that scary after all, and the uninjured half of her face looked quite pretty.

Old Lady Wang patted her grandson on the shoulder. Wang Chengyang took a deep breath, took two steps forward, and bowed:

"Chengyang is rude, apologize to your aunt."

Yin Le just wanted to make a joke, but he didn't expect the other person to apologize to him. He hurriedly walked forward to help the child up and smiled awkwardly at Old Madam Wang.

Old Lady Wang nodded, called her grandson who was holding on to the oil-paper bag, and left with a smile on her face.

Qin Yao accompanied the person all the way to the alley opposite, and only returned when she saw a maid coming to pick her up with a lantern.

When they got to the door, Yin Le was still trying to hold back her laughter, so she poked her forehead unhappily and said, "Don't scare the child at night. If something bad happens to him, you won't be able to compensate him for his precious grandson."

Yin Le suppressed his smile, hummed in response, and looked around, "Huh? Where are Si Niang and the little granddaughter of the Qiu family? I just saw them playing at the door. Has the granddaughter of the Qiu family gone home?"

After her reminder, Qin Yao and others who were tidying up the yard realized that they had not seen Si Niang for a while.

"Da Lang, where is Si Niang?" Liu Ji asked.

Dalang ran out of the door and looked around. "She's not outside. When I sent Miss Ding away just now, she was still with the Qiu family's sister!"

Yin Le also ran out from the backyard and shook his head at Qin Yao, "Master, there is no one in the backyard."

Qin Yao threw away the rag and shouted outside: "Fourth Lady!"

Liu Ji quickly counted the children in the house. Dalang, Erlang and Sanlang were all there, but Si Niang was missing.

He was immediately annoyed: "This little bastard, I told you to play outside the house, why did you run away?"

There was no response to Qin Yao's call. The family looked at each other in bewilderment. Just as they were about to go out to ask at Qiu's house, a small figure rushed in breathlessly, clinging to the door frame while panting and shouting:

"Ah, mother! There's someone in the back alley."

"What do you mean by human or not? Where have you been, little girl?" Liu Ji pounced over, grabbed the little girl's shoulders, and raised his hand to slap her on the buttocks twice.

However, before the slap could land, Qin Yao grabbed him and threw him aside.

"Fourth Sister, please catch your breath first." Qin Yao squatted in front of her daughter and helped her to breathe.

Si Niang took two deep breaths, finally catching her breath, raised her hand and pointed at the back alley and said excitedly: "Mother, there is a person lying in the back alley. My sister Qiu and I were scared to death."

Liu Ji said, "Oh!", "Is he some drunkard from some family?"

"Where is Miss Qiu?" Qin Yao asked rationally.

Seeing that Si Niang said that someone was still helping her guard the person in the back alley, she hurriedly called Liu Ji to rush over together.

On the way there, Si Niang said, "Sister Qiu and I were picking up stones in the back alley, and then we heard a thump behind us. When we turned around, we were both startled to see that it was a person falling from the wall."

Sister Qiu wanted to go over to see, but she was stopped.

"No, my mother said that we can't pick up people on the street! We have to go and call the adults!"

Si Niang secretly glanced at An Niang. She still remembered the lesson she learned in the Wild Cat Village last time.

Qin Yao touched her daughter's head and said, "Just remember it."

Si Niang smiled at A Niang and continued, "I picked up a stone and threw it at him, but he didn't move. He must have fainted. But I don't know who he is. What if he is a thief? We can't let him leave easily."

So she asked the Qiu family's sister to watch from a distance at the back alley entrance and not let anyone pass.

As he was speaking, he arrived at the back alley.

The granddaughter of the Qiu family immediately ran over, "Si Niang~" and grabbed Si Niang's arm tightly.

But when he saw that Fourth Mother's parents had also arrived, he immediately felt a lot more relaxed.

Qin Yao winked at Liu Ji, and Liu Ji had no choice but to stop watching the fun and coax the granddaughter of the Qiu family to go with him and send her home.

After he was done, he still said, "There was a drunk guy in the back alley. My family has already gone there. It's nothing serious."

The Qiu family didn't want to get involved in such troublesome matters, so they took their granddaughter home, thanked Liu Ji, and closed the door.

By the time Liu Ji ran back to the scene of the incident, Qin Yao had already asked Awang and several others in the yard to open the back door and carry the suspicious man into the house.

Something is not right. Why are you bringing the person home?

The front and back doors of the house were closed, leaving only a family of eight in the house, and a strange young man who was thrown onto the carpet in the side hall by Qin Yao.

Liu Ji pointed at the man with untidy beard, messy hair, disheveled clothes, and dirt all over his body, and looked at Qin Yao in shock: "Madam, do you know him?"

Yin Le and the four children shook their heads firmly, "Never seen it."

Awang stared at the man's clothes, his nose twitching, as if he had discovered something. He suddenly squatted down and tore off the man's tattered clothes that were covered in mud and dirt.

Suddenly, a skinny body wrapped in white cloth with blood oozing out was exposed to everyone.

Liu Ji and his two sons were so shocked that they took five steps back. How could this man be so badly injured?

Qin Yao turned her wrist and walked around the man twice, "I'm sure I haven't seen this face, but this person's figure."

It gave her a sense of déjà vu.

etc!

She remembered!
