Chapter 14: Good Bamboo Shoots Produce from Bad Bamboo



Not long after Jian Yuelan caught up, Zhou Qingqing, who had happily grabbed a sailor shirt, finally discovered that Yu Qinghe was missing.

She panicked instantly, turning her neck to look around and search, "Erwa, Erwa, where are you?"

There were people everywhere, but no children.

When Zhou Qingqing thought about losing her child in her hands, she was so scared that her face turned pale and tears flowed. She ran around the supply and marketing cooperative like crazy looking for someone.

The noise was so loud that it not only attracted Zheng Wan and Yu Guodong who were sitting a few counters away, but even the director of the supply and marketing cooperative was attracted.

"What happened to Erwa?"

Zheng Wan rushed out from the noisy crowd and grabbed her to question her.

"Erwa is missing."

Yu Guodong's face turned pale, and he immediately turned to the crowd for help, "Excuse me, has anyone seen my brother?"

"He was about this tall, and he had on a little green uniform."

He gestured with his hands, his heart filled with anxiety, but his thoughts were clearer than Zhou Qingqing, the panicked adult.

As soon as he said this, Zhou Qingqing immediately placed her hopes on the crowd.

"Has anyone seen my child?"

Most people shook their heads, but a young woman with pigtails asked, "Is it a child around two or three years old who looks very white and thin?"

"yes."

Yu Guodong felt relieved a little. As long as someone saw him, it would be fine. "Sister, have you seen my brother?"

"Your brother is out."

The young woman was also unambiguous. She pointed to the empty space next to the counter and then pointed outside the door. "I saw him being squeezed out and standing by the counter for a while, then he left on his own."

"Thank you, sister. I'll come back to thank you when I find my brother."

Before he finished speaking, Yu Guodong rushed out.

The enthusiastic onlookers said, "Come on, come on, let's help find it too."

Several more figures rushed out.

Someone ran to report to the police, and Zheng Wanze finally reacted and pulled Zhou Qingqing, whose face was covered in tears, and said, "Quick, go find the child."

Zhou Qingqing's mind went blank and her legs were very weak. Zheng Wan couldn't pull her and stamped her feet in anxiety.

"Come quickly, I'll go out and take a look first."

This person can't be relied upon now, so she'd better go find Yu Qinghe.

"Don't cry, go chase her."

As Zheng Wan ran away, the onlookers saw Zhou Qingqing still sitting on the ground crying, and they all told her to catch up quickly.

"Yes, yes, find the child, find the child..."

Zhou Qingqing, trembling all over, ran out like a headless fly.

"Erwa, Erwa——"

Yu Guodong ran around the street frantically, shouting everywhere, hoping that his brother would reply to him, but he got no response.

Zheng Wan and the others also helped to shout. As time passed, everyone was almost desperate to find the missing person.

At this time, the police arrived.

At this time, Jian Yuelan lost the person not long after chasing him into the alley.

There are many alleys in Ancheng, and the woman who took Yu Qinghe away is a local tyrant. She got rid of her by twisting and turning here and there.

She was so angry that she hammered the wall, trying to calm herself down.

The original text also mentioned that Yu Qinghe was abducted, but the author blurred the timeline. He was found and rescued in the neighboring province a week after being abducted.

The person who rescued him was Yu Shengli's former comrade-in-arms and fellow villager, who had met Yu Qinghe. Five children and two girls were rescued together with him.

The woman who abducted Yu Qinghe was named Wang Guihua, and her nickname was Ma Pozi. She got this nickname because she had smallpox when she was a child and her face was covered with pockmarks.

Wang Guihua was not present when Yu Qinghe was rescued, so the police were unable to arrest her.

It was not until after the millennium that she was dug out by the police because of Yang Zhaodi's arrest.

Existing known information: A middle-aged woman with pockmarks on her face named Wang Guihua.

After sorting out her thoughts, Jian Yuelan took a deep breath and knocked on the gate next to her.

"Is anyone home?"

"Who is it?"

A woman's voice came from inside the door. Jian Yuelan said, "Grandma, I'm looking for someone. Could you please show me the way?"

With a creak, the door opened a crack, and then a gray-haired head came out from the crack.

She was a white-haired old woman with a wrinkled face but a kind expression.

Seeing Jian Yuelan, she opened the door and asked, "Comrade, who are you looking for?"

"I'm looking for my aunt Wang Guihua. Grandma, do you know where she lives?"

"Wang Guihua?"

"Um."

The old woman thought about it seriously and said, "There's no one named Wang Guihua here. Are you sure she lives here?"

"Sure."

Jian Yuelan nodded, and choked up as if she was about to cry, "What should I do? If I can't find my aunt, where should I stay tonight?"

She pinched the corner of her clothes, her eyes were red and misty, her mouth was puffy, and her skin was as dark as balls, she looked really pitiful.

The old woman couldn't bear it and said, "Comrade, please don't cry first. What does your aunt look like?"

Jian Yuelan gave a detailed description according to the plot, focusing on the pockmarks on Wang Guihua's face.

As soon as Ma Zi came out, the old woman's face changed immediately.

His expression changed from kind to disgusted, but he still suppressed his temper and said, "She doesn't live here."

The bet was right.

The old woman really knew Ma Pozi.

She was delighted, but didn't show it on her face. "Grandma, can you tell me where she lives?"

The old lady couldn't understand why a crazy woman like Ma Pozi, who was so unreasonable and unreasonable, had such a polite niece. Could it be that good bamboo shoots come out of bad bamboo?

Confused, she didn't intend to embarrass Jian Yuelan. She pointed to the alley to the east and said, "Go into that alley, walk straight to the end, then turn left into the alley to the north. Continue straight and turn left into the west alley. The fourth house with an apricot tree at the door is your aunt's house."
