She had just heard something. She had actually heard that the two ladies had invited her to a flower viewing banquet in a few days. She was practically overwhelmed by this joy. When she first heard the news, she was very surprised. She thought, how could these two ladies of such status invite a lady of no status like her to attend a flower viewing banquet?
She felt that people like the two empresses usually interacted with people who were either rich or noble, or at least had imperial decrees. People like herself were probably the lowest-ranking people they had ever come into contact with.
So he was very surprised, and after the surprise came the joy of surprise. Actually, a queen took the initiative to invite him, and two of them at once. This kind of thing would be enough for him to brag about for the rest of his life.
So she agreed immediately.
Chen Yalan and Fu Liu had another meal in this mansion, and then found an excuse to leave.
When they left Qian's house, they returned to Hebian Village to visit the little boy.
It was still the same thatched hut, still such a simple house. When he opened the door, the young man was lying on the bed. When he heard someone pushing the door, he turned his head to look, thinking that it was someone from the village coming to give him something, but he didn't expect it to be Chen Yalan and Fu Liu.
The young man immediately hid in the corner, very alert, his eyes fixed on the two people in front of him, as if he was afraid that they would attack him.
The child seemed to be thin due to long-term malnutrition. The bones on his arms and legs were very obvious, there was not much flesh on his face, and his cheekbones were high.
Seeing the young man like this, Fu Liu felt a pang of heartache.
"Poor child, come here quickly." Fu Liu waved at the boy, wanting him to come over.
But the boy still sat in the corner with his big eyes wide open, motionless, only blinking from time to time, proving that he was still awake.
Seeing this, Fu Liu didn't force him. She took out a long dish from the food box and placed it in front of the boy: "Eat."
The young man seemed to have not eaten for a while. When he saw the plate of osmanthus cake, he felt the fragrance going straight into his nose.
The young man swallowed his saliva and stared at the plate of osmanthus cake. He looked at Fu Liu and the other man again before picking up the osmanthus cake and eating it in big mouthfuls.
Perhaps because of this plate of food, his vigilance towards Fu Liu and the others decreased a lot.
As the boy was eating, tears suddenly fell from his eyes.
Seeing this, Fu Liu immediately sat down beside the bed and reached out to hug the boy: "It's okay, don't cry, you won't be hungry anymore."
Fu Liu is very good at coaxing children, because when he was in the palace, he often liked to tease Long Yao.
But children are all the same, and with Fu Liu's comfort, the boy finally let down his guard against the two of them.
"You are good people, I like you, but, but she won't let me get close to you." The boy cried and played enough in Fu Liu's arms, so he slowly spoke.
"Who? Who doesn't let you get close to us?" Fu Liu grasped the key point of the sentence and asked.
The young man's hands kept stirring and he whispered, "Zhang Gua, Zhang Gua said that if I get close to you, he will beat me. I'm afraid."
When talking about Zhang Gua, the young man's body shuddered, which showed that he was really afraid of Zhang Gua.
After hearing what the young man said, Fu Liu became a little angry. How hypocritical had Zhang Gua been to behave like that in front of his mother?
After thinking about it, Fu Liu decided to take the boy away. Chen Yalan never objected to Fu Liu's decision. Although she felt that there might be some problems in taking the boy away, she didn't say anything after thinking about it. But with the two of them around, those problems didn't matter.
In this way, Fu Liu brought the young man away from Hebian Village and came to Liujia Village.
Sure enough, at night, there was a knock on the gate of the courtyard where Fu Liu and his family lived. When they opened the door, they saw Zhang Gua standing outside.
"Well, I thought you two were nobles from the palace, but I didn't expect you to dare to steal the child!" Seeing the door being opened, Zhang Gua immediately scolded loudly.
God knows how scared she was when she went to Hebian Village today and found that there was no child in the thatched hut. Later, she found out that the child was taken away by Fu Liu and Chen Yalan. She was a little scared at the time, afraid that Chen Yalan and Fu Liu would know the child's true identity, not to mention that she planned to use the child to do something.
So after knowing where the child was, Zhang Gua immediately came to Fu Liu, knocked on the door and started cursing.
Not only that, she also made a big fuss about this matter, because long before she came, she knew that Fu Liu and Chen Yalan were noble people, people she could not afford to offend, but if everyone knew that these two people were child thieves, what would be the consequences.
So when she came, she first found the people from Hebian Village and Liujia Village, and fanned the flames in front of them, saying that these two people were thieves who stole children.
Naturally, these people did not believe Zhang Gua's words, so Zhang Gua provoked them by saying, "If you don't believe me, come with me and see for yourself. My son was stolen by them, how could I not know?"
So now there is actually a large group of people outside Fu Liu and her friends' courtyard gate.
When the crowd outside saw the gate open, Zhang Gua started cursing before even seeing what was going on inside. Someone tried to dissuade him, "Why are you so anxious? You haven't even seen your son yet and you're already cursing. You might have wronged them."
When Zhang Gua heard this, she turned around and glared at the man: "Bullshit, my son must be here." Then she turned her head and looked towards the yard: "Where is Fu Liu? Quickly let him come out and return my son to me."
Everyone just thought that Zhang Gua was being unreasonable. Maybe his son was really missing, but who would steal his sick son?
What's more, Fu Liu and Chen Yalan are both empresses from the palace. They are nobles, a height that they can never reach in their lifetime. How could they do something like stealing a child?
They followed Zhang Gua here at this time just to watch the fun and see how Zhang Gua was humiliated.
Amidst Zhang Gua's shouting and cursing, Fu Liu and Chen Yalan appeared, and with them was a young man.
Someone who recognized the young man immediately pointed ahead and whispered, "Oh my God, Zhang Gua's son is really here. What's going on?"
