Gu Chenghuai smiled and left the main house.
Go back to the house where the third room is.
Lin Zhao was applying makeup on her face when she heard footsteps and turned around to look.
"What did mom and dad say?"
Gu Chenghuai sat on the stool next to his wife, his deep black eyes fell on her, with a smile in his eyes, and his low voice was neither hurried nor slow, "I agree, you can rest assured about Fourth Brother."
Lin Zhao knew that her parents-in-law were considerate and careful people, so she felt very confident in them.
Her brows relaxed, a smile filled her dark, clear eyes, and she was completely relieved.
"Are you surprised, Dad?"
Gu Chenghuai thought of his parents' calm look and smiled and shook his head.
"It's not a surprise. Dad and Mom are very... calm. They don't think Fourth Brother is a problem. You know, Mr. Qiao has been kind to Dad. Dad has always taken care of the people at the foot of the mountain. Now that there is one more person who needs special care, it's nothing to him."
Lin Zhao took note of her parents-in-law’s favor and said, “As long as my parents don’t find it troublesome, that’s good.”
"Where are Yubao and Hengbao?" Gu Chenghuai asked casually when he didn't see the twins on the bed.
"They wanted Xiao Jin to go to bed, but I refused. So they pulled each other's hands and went to find Qingzhou with the little pillow." Lin Zhao couldn't help laughing when he thought of the two little brothers arguing but ultimately failing, with their gloomy faces.
Gu Chenghuai ignored it and said, "Let them do it."
It would be better if those two brats didn't bother Zhao Zhao.
It is very hard to take care of four children. With Qingzhou helping, my wife can worry less.
The house next door.
The twins flattered their uncle so much that he couldn't stop smiling, and he successfully won the right to sleep on the bed for Xiao Jin.
The little golden monkey nestled on top of Yubao's head, with its tail resting on Hengbao's head. The three cubs all slept very well.
Gu Qingzhou saw that two people and a monkey had occupied his bed. He shook his head helplessly and lay down beside them.
He wanted to ask Yu Bao and Heng Bao about things in the provincial capital, but seeing that they were yawning non-stop, he stopped talking, blew out the kerosene lamp on the table next to him, closed his eyes and prepared to go to sleep.
At the same time.
A residential building in the capital.
Yuan Qin came home from overtime work, and before she could sit down to rest, her wife Yuan urged her to cook. "Qin, go cook. I'm not feeling well. I lay down for a while in the afternoon and haven't cooked yet. I'm sorry for your hard work."
She rarely says nice things.
Yuan Qin hadn't seen her two sons for three days and three nights. She was worried and originally planned to eat something easy and then go out to look for her children.
When he heard what his mother said, he immediately forgot about Meng Jingmo and Meng Guangbai.
"Mom, you're not feeling well? Are you okay?" She asked worriedly, "If you're really feeling ill, I'll take you to the hospital."
Old Mrs. Yuan's eyes flickered.
I guess Yuan Qin has a lot of money.
She said that even if Meng Jiusi didn't leave money for Yuan Qin, he would not leave money for the two bastards.
Old Lady Yuan sighed, "There is no money at home. If you don't want to watch it, just wait to die at home."
"Mom, don't say such angry words." Yuan Qin was a filial daughter, and she interrupted Old Lady Yuan, "I have money, I will take you to the hospital tomorrow."
Old Mrs. Yuan was very satisfied, and her harsh old face showed a moved expression.
Deliberately refuse.
"Keep the money your son-in-law left for you. I can't bear to spend it. It's an old problem I have, left over from when you were born. I'm used to it. It's okay. I can take it with me into the coffin."
Yuan's sister-in-law curled her lips beside her.
This statement can only fool the silly elder sister-in-law, it can't even fool Jinbao.
Who doesn’t know that mother-in-law is stronger than a bull?
Yuan Qin really believed it and felt ashamed.
"Mom, this is all my fault. I'll take you to the hospital. Maybe you can be cured. You can't stay sick like this forever."
She looked at her mother nervously, as if afraid of being rejected.
Old Lady Yuan stared at Yuan Qin for a long time, as if she was moved by her filial piety. She said with relief, "Okay, let's go and have a look. I didn't expect that I would also enjoy the filial piety of my daughter. Mom knows that you are the most filial, more filial than your brother."
Yuan Qin was stunned and her heart trembled violently.
This is the first time.
She heard from Old Lady Yuan that she was better than her brother.
"You are my biological mother, I will definitely be filial to you." Yuan Qin's face turned red with excitement, "Mom, wait a minute, I will go cook now."
When I was about to leave, I saw my brother and sister-in-law.
Her face turned stern, and for the first time she acted like an elder sister-in-law, saying in dissatisfaction, "Sister-in-law, why don't you cook when you come back? What if Mom is hungry?"
"Come back first next time and don't forget to cook. Mom is old and can't stand being hungry."
After he finished speaking, he picked up his apron and went out.
Yuan's sister-in-law:? ? I TM...
Yuan's sister-in-law laughed angrily, muttered something, cursed him as an idiot, rolled her eyes, and went back to the house with a twisted waist.
This sister-in-law is really hopeless!
So stupid it makes people want to laugh.
Old Mrs. Yuan was very dissatisfied with Yuan Qin's unnecessary actions.
In her opinion, her daughter-in-law can give birth to grandchildren, which makes her much more useful than her, an outsider who is married off.
Her son and daughter-in-law will take care of her in her old age, so what does Yuan Qin mean to her? When she gets this house, she can get the money from Yuan Qin and marry her off, and earn another dowry.
Old Mrs. Yuan was in a good mood, clacking away on her abacus.
The door was suddenly pushed open.
Yuan Qin appeared at the door and said hesitantly, "Mom, wait until I finish cooking, then I'll go find Jing Mo and Guang Bai. They are so young, I'm afraid something might happen to them."
Old Mrs. Yuan sneered in her heart.
She recalled the words she had learned from watching a play before...being spoiled by one's favor?
Isn't Yuan Qin just taking advantage of her favor and becoming arrogant?
I just gave her a good face, and she dared to make demands!
"…Go ahead and look for them if you want. If those two bastards want to enter this door, they have to kneel down and apologize to Jinbao." Old Lady Yuan deliberately posed a difficult question.
She wished the two bastards from the Meng family would die outside.
If they die, this house will naturally belong to the Yuan family!
Yuan Qin didn't think that Old Lady Yuan was creating trouble. In her eyes, her mother was tough on the outside but soft on the inside.
She smiled and said, "Well! I will teach the two children well."
After saying that, she happily went to cook.
The lights in the public kitchen were on and someone was cooking. It was Meng's neighbor.
This family had received kindness from Meng Jiusi. After Meng Jiusi got into trouble, their attitude towards Meng Jingmo and Meng Guangbai did not change. Although they did not dare to take care of them openly, they secretly gave them cakes.
Seeing Yuan Qin at this time, the woman asked while no one was around: "Why don't I see Jing Mo and Guang Bai?"
Yuan Qin was stunned. She didn't expect that her neighbor would be willing to talk to her.
Ever since her husband's accident, her former good neighbors have been distancing themselves from her.
She was flattered.
"Those two guys got mad and ran to the old factory. I'll go find them after I finish cooking."
“…?”
The female neighbor looked at Yuan Qin as if she were a freak.
Her son hasn't shown up for a long time, but she still has the energy to cook? !
For Dr. Meng's sake, the female neighbor advised: "This woman is married, so she should protect her family. If you have the energy, take care of her family. If you don't have the energy, you should just live your own life first. What do you think?"
Yuan Qin smiled and nodded in agreement.
"You're right."
When the female neighbor thought she had heard it, Yuan Qin said to herself: "It's hard for women, and it's even harder for widows and orphans. My family moved here to help me and Jing Mo Guang Bai."
"My mom and her family just moved in not long ago, so the two kids weren't used to it, but after a while, they got used to it."
She smiled as she imagined that the days to come would be no different from when her husband was around.
"?"
A string of question marks appeared above the female neighbor's head, and her expression was speechless and indescribable.
He looked at Yuan Qin with complicated eyes, served the food, and left without saying much.
It’s so hard to persuade a ghost who wants to die, she tried her best!
Yuan Qin watched her neighbor leave and pursed her lips.
Her husband has become a bad guy, and she, a woman living with two sons, is still at the mercy of others. Her family moved in, so if those people come again, at least they and their sons will have someone to rely on.
She is right!
After the meal was ready, Yuan Qin didn't have time to eat and hurried to find her two sons.
Didn't find it in the old factory.
She thought the child went to buy food, so she waited at the place where she found Meng Jingmo and Meng Guangbai last time.
She waited and waited.
When the moon rose quietly, I still couldn't see my son.
Yuan Qin's engagement watch was "borrowed" and is now worn on the wrist of her younger brother and sister-in-law.
I don't know what time it is.
She felt uneasy.
Leave the place and start looking everywhere.
"Kyomo!"
"Guangbai!"
Yuan Qin shouted as she searched.
I ran all over the old house and didn't see even a stray cat.
She was completely panicked and her face turned pale.
Go home in a hurry.
"Mom, are Jingmo and Guangbai back?" Yuan Qin asked as soon as she entered the door.
The Yuan family was stunned.
What's the meaning?
Are those two bastards dead?
Yuan Qin was running with sweat all over her face. Without waiting for Old Lady Yuan and the others to say anything, she pushed open the doors of two rooms and searched them one by one, but she didn't find her two sons.
She stood there in a daze, as if she had lost her soul. Her legs lost their strength and she sat down on the ground, tears streaming down her face.
"Mom, Jing Mo and Guang Bai are missing!" Yuan Qin cried desperately, "I can't find them. Could they... have been abducted by human traffickers?"
The sound is very loud.
The tube-shaped building was not soundproof, and Yuan Qin's voice could be heard by the two families on the left and right.
The people who had been helped by Meng Jiusi rushed out of the house and banged on the door.
"Comrade Yuan, is everything okay?" someone asked.
In fact, no one wants to deal with the Yuan family. They are a very bad family. The old man is unkind, and the one named Jinbao is domineering. They are really unpopular.
Thinking of Dr. Meng, a kind-hearted doctor, everyone couldn't bear it and knocked on the door impatiently.
Yuan Qin stood up suddenly, ran over and opened the door.
Red eyes looked at several neighbors.
The tone is urgent.
"Have you seen Jing Mo and Guang Bai?"
The man who spoke thought about it and realized that he had not seen the two children of the Meng family for quite a long time. His face changed slightly, "Did Jingmo and Guangbai come back last night?"
The Yuan family members hid themselves and did not show up.
Only Yuan Qin faced the questioning of her neighbors.
She felt guilty and ashamed, tears streaming down her face, "...No."
"Jingmo and Guangbai didn't want to go home with me. I left the door open for them for a few nights, but I didn't see them. They must have slept in the old factory building."
Several neighbors were stunned.
Is this your biological mother?
grass.
What a joke!
Yuan Qin continued speaking.
"I think Jingmo and Guangbai need some time to think about it. I haven't dared to go these two days. They don't want to see me." She looked aggrieved and felt that her son didn't understand her, and it showed on her face.
"..." The neighbors were speechless.
That's what I said.
What? Should I give you a little red flower for being considerate?
It feels like my brain was kicked by the production team’s donkey!
"I'm going to look for them tonight. I looked everywhere, but I couldn't find them, my Jing Mo, my Guang Bai." Yuan Qin just kept crying and didn't pay any attention at all.
"Aren't you afraid that they will starve?" The female neighbor was so angry that she couldn't stand it.
Yuan Qin paused in her tears and explained, "They have money."
After saying this, she started crying again.
The neighbors' heads almost exploded when they heard the humming sounds.
Cry cry cry.
Old Mrs. Yuan is not dead again!
No one wanted to pay attention to Yuan Qin, so the man who asked the question first spoke up: "Jing Mo and Guang Bai are the children we watched grow up. We can't just leave them alone and do nothing about it. If anyone is interested... follow me to look for them everywhere."
Everyone present had received great kindness from Dr. Meng and remembered him, so almost all of them came out.
——Go find the Meng brothers.
Someone went to look for the Meng family.
Someone went to the hospital where Meng Jiusi used to work.
Someone went to the factory where Yuan Qin worked.
Some people go to state-owned restaurants, movie theaters, and state-owned stores...
I've searched everywhere I could.
Found it late at night.
No one saw the two familiar figures.
The group met at the gate of the family building and shook their heads.
"Not in the hospital."
“Not in the factory.”
"The Meng family said they haven't seen Jing Mo and Guang Bai for a long time, and they also said... Jing Mo and Guang Bai have nothing to do with them, so don't bother them in the future."
Everyone who heard this sighed.
What’s wrong with the world!
How could relatives who were getting along well with each other suddenly become enemies?
It's right to be prudent and protect yourself, but you don't have to be so heartless.
The last person appeared running, sweating all over. He wiped his forehead, shook off the sweat on his palms, and panted.
"There's no one at the state-owned restaurant. There's no one at the cinema either. There's no one at the state-owned store either."
"My child...!" Yuan Qin cried heartbrokenly, her vision went dark, and she fell to the ground.
"..."
The two women who helped find people lifted her up and sent her back to Meng's house.
The men ignored it.
No one likes a brother-supporting demon!
Dr. Meng is such a nice person, it's a pity that he has such a wife!!
I have searched everywhere I should look, and there is nowhere to look again.
Everyone present looked at each other in bewilderment.
The atmosphere was slightly tense.
"Could Jing Mo and Guang Bai be going to...see Dr. Meng?" someone made a bold guess.
"Hiss!" The person next to him gasped, "No way!"
A young man thought of something, "I remember, my grandma seemed to have said that she saw Jing Mo and Guang Bai leaving with a rag bag and a man a few days ago."
"What?" the man who offered to help find someone raised his voice.
In just a few seconds, all kinds of speculations appeared in his mind.
All bad.
"Go find your grandma!"
Young man: "My grandma is asleep."
"Why are you still sleeping? Let's take care of business first."
"oh oh."
The group arrived at the young man's home.
His words were confirmed -
Jing Mo and Guang Bai did leave with a man.
and.
They are voluntary.
I said goodbye to the old man politely.
"Who do you think that person could be? Could it be someone that Doctor Meng had treated? Did he know that Jing Mo and Guang Bai were having a hard time, so he took them away?"
Everyone present hoped that was the case.
"Well, I hope so. Everyone, go home. You have to go to work tomorrow morning."
"Let's go back. I'm exhausted after a day's work!"
The crowd dispersed.
After returning home, each family made some guesses and wished the Meng brothers good luck. Then they cursed the Yuan family, saying that Yuan Qin was confused and told them to stay away from people with unclear minds.
