Chapter 170: Stealing People
People like Wang Ping really don't know the difference between the important and the unimportant.
No matter what, Instructor Liu has worked hard in the company for so many years and has a lot of experience. The reason why he has not been promoted is not unrelated to Wang Ping's personality and behavior.
Typical of someone who loses the big picture for the small!
At this moment, after hearing what Aunt He said, Wang Ping finally remembered something and stepped back with an unpleasant look on her face. There was even more hatred in her eyes.
Huang Xinran noticed it and became secretly alert.
Aunt He didn't pay attention to these, she was helping Jiang Meizi carry her bag. Jiang Meizi looked about the same age as Huang Xinran, but she was accompanied by three girls and was breastfeeding her little son.
Because she had too many things, Huang Xinran also helped to look after her children, although her three daughters were very well behaved and always followed the adults and never fell behind.
The group found a pavilion that was convenient for watching the dragon dance and waited.
In addition to the good view, the cold is also a big problem in the location of the pavilion.
To keep warm, Huang Xinran held Yaya and Maomao tightly in her arms and chatted with everyone. Soon, she found that Jiang Meizi and another military wife named Wang Dajie were both very lively people. After chatting for a while, everyone got closer.
Wang Ping, on the other hand, had distanced herself from everyone since being pointed out by Aunt He. Even when it was getting dark and the night wind was getting stronger, she had no intention of getting closer to everyone.
Huang Xinran didn't care about that. She took off her scarf and put it on Maomao. Maomao was bare-headed and had short hair. The night wind made her feel very cold. She then put a flower decoration on her handkerchief and put it on Yaya.
"I never thought that this scarf made of handkerchief would look so good on Yaya. Any color really suits our Yaya!" Huang Xinran couldn't help but praise.
Fortunately, the handkerchief is big enough to be used as a scarf for Yaya. Although it is not as warm as a scarf, it is better than wearing nothing.
Maomao, on the other hand, felt very uncomfortable after putting the scarf on and kept pulling at it.
Looking at her serious expression, she almost wanted to take off her scarf, but she took action only because Huang Xinran was beside her.
Huang Xinran laughed secretly, but pretended not to know.
Fortunately, as night fell, lanterns lit up one after another on both sides of the road up the mountain, illuminating the entire road like a fire dragon.
As the sky darkened, with the sound of intense gongs and drums, the dragon and lion dances finally began!
As they danced, in an instant, the sky was filled with fire trees, silver flowers, fire dragons, and debris, and a long rainbow penetrated the sky, illuminating the entire mountain as if it were daytime.
So beautiful!
Following the dragon and lion dances, there are also stilt walking, the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea with Lanterns, the God of Wealth arriving, etc. It is really lively.
Everyone forgot about the cold and even where they were. They all walked out of the pavilion and stood at the railings to look at the beautiful scenery before them.
With my mouth wide open, I was completely unable to recover from the beautiful scenery in front of me.
Someone suddenly shouted, and the passers-by on the mountain trail followed the performing team in front. Aunt He also called out to everyone, and everyone followed the lighted God of Wealth and moved forward.
When the God of Wealth began to scatter money and candies to "bring fortune and blessings", everyone rushed forward to grab them.
Huang Xinran didn't try to grab the candies at first, but she was so close that some candies fell beside her intentionally or unintentionally. She didn't have time to pick them up, but Yaya and Maomao had already broken away from her hands, squeezed into the crowd, and pounced on the candies.
"Maomao!~"
Huang Xinran became anxious and hurried to catch the person.
In this crowded scene, Yaya and Maomao are both small. If they are accidentally squeezed and fall, or if an accident like trampling happens, she will not be able to rescue them in time.
Thinking of this, Huang Xinran increased the strength of his hands.
Fortunately, Yaya and Maomao knew that this was an unusual situation, so after they snatched the candy, they were quickly caught by Huang Xinran.
She pulled the two children to the side of the road with a look of fear on her face and looked at them subconsciously: "Are you not hurt?"
"No, look, it's money!"
Yaya happily took the coins in her hand and shared them with Huang Xinran.
It was just a five-cent coin, but Yaya smiled brightly: "Mom, this is the money that the God of Wealth showered down! Yaya and her brother got the money from the God of Wealth, so will our family have a lot of money this year?"
"you……"
Huang Xinran originally wanted to teach the child a lesson, but the excited smile on the child's face prevented her from saying the words that were about to come out.
She took a deep breath and adjusted her mood. "Yaya, keep the money you picked up. But, so many people were trying to grab it just now. Yaya and her brother are so young. If they fall or get stepped on, wouldn't it be dangerous?"
"Mom..."
The smile on Yaya's face froze and she subconsciously called her.
"Maomao, you come and talk."
She asked Maomao again.
Maomao held the coin tightly in his hand for a long time before saying, "It's very dangerous... Mom, we are wrong."
"Silly boy, that's right. You're just so young. If you don't have money, we can just make it again. But if you get hurt, Mom will be sad. Do you understand?"
"Hmm!~"
Both children nodded vigorously.
Huang Xinran rubbed the two children's heads and put the coins and candies they picked up into their pockets: "Take them, they are all for you. Let's go and meet up with Yue'er and the others!"
The Yue'er Huang Xinran mentioned was Jiang Meizi's eldest daughter, a girl who took good care of her younger sister along the way.
But she didn't expect that they had only been away from the group for a few minutes, and when they reunited, they saw everyone looking for someone anxiously.
"Aunt He, are you looking for us? Sorry, we just fell behind."
"No... Ranran, have you seen Yue'er and the others?"
Aunt He was extremely anxious: "Yue'er, Yue'er and her two sisters are missing! They disappeared in the blink of an eye just now!~"
Huang Xinran was startled.
Suddenly, I remembered the strange behavior of Lu Yunchen and others during the day, and a thought flashed through my mind. Could this be related to Yue'er's disappearance?
But on the surface, she still comforted everyone: "No way? There are too many people here, let's look for it again. Maybe there are too many people and it has been squeezed to the front..."
"No, no! Just now, someone took away my Yue'er, they took away my Yue'er!" Sister Jiang burst into tears.
Huang Xinran's heart sank to the bottom.
Could it be that I really encountered a human trafficker again?
This can't be...
"No!"
Huang Xinran thought of something else: "Where are Yunchen and Lao Liu? Why are they all gone?"
