A quarter of an hour later, A Tai came into the house with some food.
"These are the only coarse grains in the village. You can just make do with some of them." A Tai said with an embarrassed look on his face.
"When you're out and about, having a hot meal is good enough. How could I refuse that?"
"Then eat quickly." A Tai urged.
Bei Yutang and Xiao Mo'er sat down, each holding a bowl of porridge. Xiao Mo'er raised her head, smiled sweetly at him and said, "Uncle A'tai, if you watch me eat, I won't be able to finish it."
Bei Yutang said apologetically, "I'm sorry, my child has a strange habit. Please ignore him. If you don't want to eat, then just starve."
The last harsh words were directed at Xiao Moer.
Little Mo'er's mouth turned upside down, and tears as big as beans rolled down. "Mother, I don't love Mo'er anymore. Woo woo..."
"You kid!" Bei Yutang was helpless and looked at A Tai embarrassedly, "I've spoiled this kid of mine."
When A Tai looked at Xiao Mo'er, he thought he was just a naughty kid spoiled by his parents.
He stood up tactfully and said, "I'm going to go for a walk outside. You guys can eat slowly."
Bei Yutang nodded embarrassedly.
After he left, Bei Yutang looked around and saw someone walking around the house outside. They had them completely under surveillance.
Bei Yutang walked back to the table. Except for the porridge which was drugged, the steamed buns and side dishes on the table were clean.
Bei Yutang poured the two bowls of porridge into an earthenware jar, and then she and Xiao Zimo ate the hot steamed buns with some side dishes.
Half an hour later, A Tai cleared away the dishes and was relieved to see that they had finished eating.
"You've been traveling all day, so I won't disturb you from resting." After saying this, A Tai left the house.
Bei Yutang and Xiao Zimo lay on the earthen kang with their clothes on. "Mo'er, you should get some sleep first. When someone comes, mother will wake you up."
"I'll sleep for an hour first, and then I'll take over your place."
"Yeah." Bei Yutang touched his little head lovingly.
At midnight, three black shadows came silently towards the thatched hut. They pushed open the door and walked into the house with a swagger, without worrying about whether the people in the house would be woken up.
"I see that this mother and son are very wealthy. They are all wearing silk and satin, which are all high-quality materials. Not ordinary people can afford them."
"Hey, if they weren't rich, do you think the boss would be willing to let them in?"
"It's unfortunate for this mother and son to have fallen into our hands."
"Hurry up and find their packages and report to the boss."
Several people were talking loudly. When they approached the house, Xiao Moer had already been woken up by them, but he just remained quiet and didn't say anything.
When they walked into the house, they saw Bei Yutang and her son sleeping on the kang, unaware of their arrival.
One of the gangsters looked at the person on the bed with an evil glint in his eyes. "Look at that little girl, she's really pretty. Her skin is so white, it seems like you could squeeze water out of it."
As he spoke, the man reached out to touch Bei Yutang's cheek, but before his hand touched her, a silver needle quickly flew into his immobilization acupoint, and he froze there motionless.
The other two went to look for the gifts, but didn't notice anything unusual about him.
One of them warned, "Sixth Brother, take it easy. The boss said this little bitch will be sold along with the other girls."
