The yard was in chaos, but no one spoke up for the fortune-teller, mainly because they didn't have much contact with each other on a regular basis.
The fortune-teller old man lives alone and is usually very dirty. Moreover, he is a fortune-teller. Although it is said that he is very accurate in fortune-telling, some people in the yard want him to tell their fortunes to see if they have the opportunity to get promoted or make a lot of money so that they don’t have to rent a house all the time.
But due to face, it had only been a short time since the Four Olds Campaign was launched, so how could they continue to be poisoned by feudal ideas?
So they were all tense, thinking in their hearts and expressing their disdain for each other out loud.
The fortune-teller covered his neck, hunched over and leaned against the wall, coughing hard, and kept saying, "You...you can't just bully others by taking advantage of your power and wrongly accuse them. I'm going to sue you."
Zhou Luancheng held Sheng Anning's elbow tightly with one hand to suppress her impulse, staring at the fortune-teller thoughtfully, and then pulled Sheng Anning: "Sister-in-law, let's go home first, I'll take care of the rest, don't worry, I will definitely find Mo Mo home."
The sound was neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for everyone in the yard to hear it.
With Zhou Luancheng pulling her, and Mu Xiaowan and Sun Xuemei pushing her, Sheng An Ning had no choice but to follow them.
The fortune-teller watched the group of people leave, his legs went weak and he slid down the wall. He sat on the ground, still holding his neck and coughing from time to time.
Mrs. Chen crossed her arms and looked at the fortune teller coldly. After everyone left and the yard became quiet, she snorted coldly, "Okay, stop pretending. Although the pinch I gave you was serious, it didn't take away half your life. And you should pack up and move out quickly. Who knows if you stole someone's child?"
The fortune-teller stood up with the help of the wall, and said to Mrs. Chen in a somewhat aggrieved tone, "How could I steal someone else's child? I can't even support myself, why would I steal a child?"
Mrs. Chen sneered, "Boys can also be sold for money. Nowadays, many families want boys so much that they are going crazy. Come on, stop pretending to be innocent in front of me. No matter if you are wronged or not, since they have come to your door, it means there is something wrong with you. There are so many houses in this alley, why don't you go find someone else?"
After saying that, he turned around indifferently, and before going back to the house, he threw another sentence: "Hurry up and move out before dark."
…
Zhou Luancheng sent Sheng An Ning into the courtyard, told Mu Xiaowan to take good care of his sister-in-law, and left in a hurry. If the fortune-teller was only two points suspicious before, he was seven points suspicious now.
Because when he straightened his hunched back, he was exactly about 1.7 meters tall, and the size of his footprints, although the soles were different, did not change.
I habitually land on my heel and walk a little crookedly, so the right side of the heel of my right shoe rubs against the ground severely, and the footprint left on that side is deeper.
Zhou Luancheng didn't tell Sheng An Ning about these details because he wanted to keep an eye on the fortune teller.
If he really stole Mo Mo, but he didn't run away, it means Mo Mo is still in Jing City. There was also a possibility at that time that he had handed it over to the next buyer.
…
Sheng An Ning was dragged back to the house by Sun Xuemei and Mu Xiaowan, but she was extremely calm in her heart. The commotion just now was not just because Mo Mo was lost and she lost her mind.
There is also temptation. Only this almost crazy state can make the other party lose their guard.
Zhou Luancheng left in a hurry, she thought he must have discovered something.
Sitting exhausted on the sofa, I watched the two children run over and reached out to hug them.
Zhong Wenqing felt sorry for Sheng An Ning. She looked so haggard after that day and night. Her lips were chapped and her eyes were dull. It was obvious that she was just hanging on.
"An Ning, Auntie just cooked wontons for Zhou Zhou and An An, you should eat some. An An was able to come back safely last time, so our Mo Mo will be able to come back safely as well."
Sheng An Ning didn't say a word. This time was different from the last time An An was lost. The time An An was lost, Zhou Chaoyang was with him, but this time, Mo Mo was alone.
Momo is not like An An, who has so much strength and can save himself at critical moments.
However, she did need to eat, otherwise she would not have the energy to go out and look for Momo. Sheng Anning ate a bowl of wontons from her auntie.
He put down the bowl and stood up: "I'm going to go out and look for Momo, you guys take care of the child."
He also told Mu Xiaowan and Sun Xuemei: "I can go out by myself, you stay at home and take care of the two children."
After all, Zhou Hongyun and Zhong Wenqing are old, and the two old people are very sad at the moment. Zhong Wenqing is not in good health either. If the two children make a fuss, they really can't take care of them.
At this moment, Sheng An Ning missed Zhou Shixun very much. If he were at home, Mo Mo should be able to find him quickly.
Mu Xiaowan was worried about her going out alone: "Let me accompany you. I am worried about you going out like this. If I accompany you, we can discuss it if anything happens."
Sheng An Ning shook her head and pulled Mu Xiao Wan aside: "I know my limits. I see that my mother is not in a good mood. She and Aunt Hong Yun haven't rested all night. After I leave, find a way to let them rest for a while."
Mu Xiaowan looked at Sheng Anning, whose eyes were bloodshot, and said, "You should also rest for a while. Your body can't stand this."
Sheng An Ning shook her head: "I want to go find Mo Mo. When I close my eyes, I see Mo Mo crying and saying, "Mom, I'm scared." I want to find him quickly.
He held Mu Xiaowan's hand and signaled her not to persuade him anymore: "Okay, let's not waste time. I'll leave this family to you."
Mu Xiaowan could only agree, as she really needed someone to stay at home right now.
Sheng An Ning left home with no purpose. She just thought about the several times she had met the fortune-teller and the Baiyun Temple where the old man often went, so she wanted to walk along this road.
…
In a small courtyard in a Beijing alley, with its own door and yard, a family lives there, and the door is closed at this moment.
The doors and windows of the room were closed, even the curtains were drawn, and the lights were on.
A man and a woman surrounded the little boy sitting in the **, watching curiously.
The woman looked at the boy's chubby face and bright eyes and couldn't help but feel happy: "This child, will he really be ours from now on?"
The man nodded confidently: "Of course, this child will be our son in the future. We will find a way to take him to the countryside to raise him for two years, and then bring him back. By then, I wonder who will dare to say that our family is extinct."
The woman reached out to touch the little boy's head, but the little boy turned his head away. Then he pursed his lips, stared at them with his big black eyes, and said nothing.
The woman hesitated: "Is this child a fool? From yesterday till now, except for sleeping for a while at night, he didn't cry or make a fuss. This is not normal. Which child would not cry and call for his mother in such a situation?"
Mo Mo, who was sitting in the middle of the bed, clenched his fists and stared at the two of them...
