cousin?
It's unbelievable that she has a cousin.
Ruan Mingfu wanted to ask more, but Ms. Luan was preoccupied and didn't want to speak anymore.
She had no choice but to shut her mouth.
"Xie Yanzhao, this is really new. I actually have a cousin."
In order to figure this out, Ruan Mingfu searched her mind for a while, but did not find any clues about this so-called cousin. If her memory was not incomplete, she would not dare to jump to conclusions and would have thought that Ms. Luan had cheated on her.
"When you see the person, you will know what the situation is."
Ruan Mingfu lay on the bed and responded, then suddenly looked up and grabbed Xie Yanzhao's clothes.
"You say, my mother is not here for that cousin, right?"
"You're already this old," Xie Yanzhao stroked Ruan Mingfu's long, satin-like hair and said with a smile, "Why are you still jealous?"
"snort!"
Ruan Mingfu snorted coldly and slapped his claws away.
"You're still talking about me. Why did you go and shave someone else's dog for no reason?"
I didn't bite him, and I still owe him something.
Xie Yanzhao: “…”
He coughed lightly, then fell asleep.
"It's late, go to bed."
Who did this dog man learn this from?
When it comes to serious matters, they start to avoid the important issues.
He wanted to sleep, but Ruan Mingfu wouldn't let him!
"Hurry up and tell me," she simply laid on top of him and looked at him viciously, "If you don't tell me, I won't let you sleep."
Xie Yanzhao: “…”
Although her expression was fierce, it did not seem intimidating at all in Xie Yanzhao's eyes.
He held out his hands to protect her, "You really want to know?"
Ruan Mingfu's eyes lit up and she nodded quickly.
"Hurry up and tell me!"
"When I was little, I didn't know much. Puppies are covered in fur all year round," Xie Yanzhao said with helplessness. "It happened to be the beginning of winter when it snowed, and my grandmother was afraid that I would be cold, so she dressed me in several layers of clothes..."
"So, when you're hot, you think the little dog is hot, so you shave its hair?"
Xie Yanzhao's eyes were filled with embarrassment, "... about the same."
Ruan Mingfu's beautiful peach blossom eyes were filled with smiles.
"You were so naughty when you were a kid."
I can compete with her.
"That was when I was four or five years old..."
At that time, Bai Qingzhu had not passed away yet, and Commander Xie pretended to be a good husband and a good father in front of everyone. If you think about it carefully, those days in childhood should have been his happiest time.
There was nostalgia in his eyes.
Ruan Mingfu patted his arm and said, "Uncle said you are a troublemaker, why can't I feel it?"
She couldn't help but picture Xie Yanzhao's unruly appearance in her mind...
I had no clue for a long time.
Xie Yanzhao coughed lightly and said, "We'll talk about it later."
"No!" Ruan Mingfu propped herself up slightly, "I want to listen, tell me quickly."
There was seriousness in her eyes.
Xie Yanzhao: “…”
He was such a smart man that he would not reveal his shortcomings in front of his lover. He thought for a moment and then said, "Take our meeting for example. Before the age of 25, Xie Yanzhao would have thrown you out with your blanket."
Ruan Mingfu swallowed.
This... is so fierce?
Looking at Ruan Mingfu's wide eyes, a smile flashed across Xie Yanzhao's eyes.
"Don't think about it. Go to sleep."
He pulled the quilt over Ruan Mingfu, and then held her in his arms.
It was not until her vision went dark that Ruan Mingfu came back to her senses.
Actually, it makes sense if you think about it carefully.
Everyone has adolescence and impulses, but after that age, things will settle down. The man is almost 30 years old, and it seems unrealistic to be more passionate and unrestrained.
After figuring it out, Ruan Mingfu turned over, found a comfortable position in Xie Yanzhao's arms and fell asleep.
The next morning, Ruan Mingfu saw more than a dozen bodyguards standing in her yard.
She was startled.
"Mom, are we going to rescue someone or rob him?"
With this kind of situation, people would believe you're going to fight.
"If you can't save it, just rob it!"
As for domineering, it turns out that you still have to look at her mother.
"Mom, what's going on?"
Ms. Luan's face didn't look very good, and it was obvious that the matter was serious.
When Ruan Mingfu saw this, she became obedient and stopped asking questions.
When she left, she sat in Xie Yanzhao's car, with Ms. Luan and Mr. Ruan sitting in the back. Qi Yangyan drove his own car with his bodyguards, and seven or eight cars lined up in a long snake and drove towards the destination.
"Mom, what's going on?"
Ms. Luan glanced at Xie Yanzhao who was driving the car and chose her words carefully.
"In the end, it was us who implicated this child."
As she spoke, Ms. Luan sighed.
The original owner had only one brother in her family, but he was in poor health and only had a daughter after marriage. The sister-in-law felt that her brother could not give birth to a son and was afraid that he would have no one to rely on in the future, so she divorced him. After that, her brother did not remarry and lived with his daughter.
Due to his frail body, he could not do heavy work, but he had a skill, and Ms. Luan helped the father and daughter from time to time, so they lived a stable life.
It was not until Ms. Luan was demoted that her brother died of suffocation after hearing the news.
It's no wonder that Ruan Mingfu had no impression of him. Uncle Luan was too weak to travel and had stayed in Jiangcheng. Ms. Luan was even busier. The last time the siblings met was five years ago.
After Uncle Luan passed away, Jiangcheng had no relatives left, and Luan Rong had no choice but to go to her biological mother's home in Wancheng.
After saying this, Ruan Mingfu finally dug out her information from her memory.
"So that's how it is," Ruan Mingfu sighed, "Mom, isn't my cousin having a good time at my uncle's house?"
Ms. Luan's expression was so solemn that she was also frightened.
"Her grandmother sold your cousin."
"What?!"
Ruan Mingfu was really shocked, and even Xie Yanzhao, who was driving the car next to her, had a look of surprise in his eyes.
"Mom, what's going on?"
Ms. Luan didn't know how to start.
After being sent down, the two sides severed their relationship. After Ms. Luan was rehabilitated, she tried to contact the people on the side, and only then did she know these things. When she went to Wancheng, besides seeing Ruan Mingfu, she also looked for Luan Rong.
She took over someone else's body, and she couldn't ignore the only child of the original owner's brother.
The car slowly stopped, and it turned out that someone was waving at me from the side of the road.
"Sister Luan!"
Ms. Luan looked sideways and waved to the people outside, "Sister Ye, come up quickly."
She pushed Mr. Ruan next to her and spoke with disgust.
"Go to your son."
Father Ruan: “…”
OK~
Ye Qiu walked forward happily, but Li Xiuxiu tugged at her clothes with an embarrassed look on her face.
"Mom, how about... we just not go?"
"Why are you so cowardly? I'm not asking you to go on a blind date," Ye Qiu rolled his eyes at her. "With your attitude, I'm afraid people won't like you."
"Mom!" Li Xiuxiu frowned, "I told you, I don't want to get married for the time being."
When will her mother's habit of finding men for her be cured?
Li Xiuxiu couldn't bear it anymore.
Ye Qiu rolled his eyes at her and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
"If Miss Luan's son is a swan, you are that leper. I am embarrassed to mention you in front of others."
"Let go! We have something important to do today."
Li Xiuxiu: “…”
Although Ye Qiu had no intention of introducing a gay man to her, Li Xiuxiu felt even more aggrieved.
She's not as bad as her own mother says, right?
"Let go, if you don't want to go, go home," Ye Qiu slapped her hand that was grabbing his clothes, turned around and smiled again, "Sister, I'm here."
Li Xiuxiu: “…”
It's impossible to go back.
Her father told her to take good care of her mother today.
Li Xiuxiu suspected that the couple was colluding with each other, but she had no evidence.
"Come on, come up," Ms. Luan quietly moved to the side, "Xiu Xiu is here too, let's sit here together. There's a lot of space in the back, it can accommodate so many people."
When getting on the car, Ye Qiu looked back.
When I saw the car behind me, my vanity was greatly satisfied.
"Sister, this is a big deal."
In this day and age, it's good to have a car. How could one order so many? Even her father-in-law, the teacher, didn't have such a grand show.
Ye Qiu was full of envy, and he was even more determined to cling to Ms. Luan's thighs.
"That's nothing," Luan Shi shook his head, "I just hope that the child can be safe and sound, it's worth it..."
She didn't finish her last words, but Ye Qiu already understood what she meant.
The smile on her face also fell, "Sister, you have to be mentally prepared... From what I heard, that child is having a very hard time."
Ye Qiu couldn't bear to say it.
"As long as we find her, it's good," Ms. Luan said with a heavy heart, thinking quickly about countermeasures, "I have to thank you very much. It's a blessing for you to find her."
Ye Qiu has been active in Wancheng for more than ten years. What news can't she find out?
Since Luan Rong's grandmother didn't say anything, Ms. Luan thought of her.
"It's nothing, it's just a matter of convenience."
That's what he said, but after hearing what Ms. Luan said, the smile on Ye Qiu's face deepened.
Maybe because of this cousin, everyone was not in high spirits, and the car suddenly became quiet. As time went by, the route became more and more remote. The road was also bumpy, and Ruan Mingfu, who was sitting in the passenger seat, felt like she was about to be thrown off.
The road below gradually became narrower, and after driving a little further, the car stopped.
Ruan Mingfu quickly opened the car door and went down to get some fresh air.
She was pale and her stomach was still rumbling.
"Are you okay?"
Xie Yanzhao patted his back worriedly, his brows furrowed tightly.
He should drive slower.
“Here,” Li Xiuxiu’s face was also a little pale, “It should feel much better if you smell it.”
She holds an orange in her hand.
The skin was green and looked particularly sour. Miraculously, Ruan Mingfu's stomach stopped churning. She smelled the pungent orange scent, which was surprisingly fragrant.
She felt much better and some of the redness returned to her face.
"Thank you."
"You are welcome."
Li Xiuxiu was at a loss as to what to do when faced with Ruan Mingfu's thanks.
"for you!"
Ruan Mingfu peeled the orange, but didn't throw it away, because she would need it when she got home. She cut the flesh into two halves and stuffed them into Li Xiuxiu's hands.
She was stunned for a moment.
“Sweet?”
Li Xiuxiu nodded.
She actually has a good impression of Ruan Mingfu.
No, to be precise, she has a crush on pretty people.
Ruan Mingfu felt relieved and gave half to Xie Yanzhao before taking a bite.
As soon as she entered the mouth, Ruan Mingfu lost control of her facial expression.
Oh my!
What kind of orange is this? Why is it so sour?
Help!
Ruan Mingfu's expression was distorted.
The flesh is orange-yellow in color, but it's not sweet.
Damn it, it's killing half my life.
“Isn’t it sour?”
Li Xiuxiu didn't eat carefully. She was immersed in Ruan Mingfu's beauty and swallowed it whole without tasting anything.
"Ah... I don't know either."
Ruan Mingfu looked at Xie Yanzhao again, "Are you jealous?"
“I’m not afraid of acid.”
Asking this question to a dog man is obviously asking the wrong person.
Ruan Mingfu shut up.
But she would never dare eat those orange slices, so she had to wrap them together with the orange peel.
Qi Yangyan came with bodyguards. The aura and scene were very similar to those in the TV series "Big Brother".
"There is no road ahead, we can't drive in."
"Let's go over there."
Ms. Luan looked at the village not far away, her face becoming more solemn.
"We have to be careful."
Ye Qiu looked at the dozen or twenty people around him, and he finally felt more at ease. He didn't know whether he could get the person out, but with these bodyguards, at least he could leave smoothly.
When entering this village, the first thing that comes to mind is poverty.
Adults and children alike all looked skinny, wearing patched clothes that still had holes here and there.
With so many people entering the village, people noticed them from afar.
Not long after the group started walking, they were stopped by a group of villagers carrying shovels.
They looked alert, but when they saw a group of people dressed appropriately, they were a little at a loss.
"What are you doing here?"
Father Ruan smiled like an old fox, "Please rest assured, we have no ill intentions, we just came here to look for someone."
After hearing this, the villagers' vigilance was reduced a lot.
"You actually came here to look for someone?"
"Who has such a respectable relative? When you become rich, remember to help the whole village..."
"That's exactly the reason."
“…”
"Who are you looking for?"
"Yes, you haven't told me who you are looking for yet?"
Just as Father Ruan was about to speak, Ms. Luan grabbed his clothes and lowered her voice: "You can't say Xiaorong's name."
"Let's find a second dog!"
Ye Qiu rolled his eyes and told the name of Luan Rong's family that he had inquired about.
The villagers were also excited when they heard this.
"After all this time, it turns out that he is a relative of Ergou's family."
"Gen Ergou, a poor man, actually has such a prominent relative... He is going to be rich."
"No! I have to go talk to Er Gouzi. When he was about to starve to death, it was I who gave him some sweet potatoes that saved his life."
“That’s right…”
"What are you hiding for, little brat?" The villagers hurriedly pulled a half-grown boy out. "He's a bastard. Let him take you there."
Gen Sigou scratched his head.
I don't know when my family had this relative.
"Come with me."
After that, he led the way. The villagers were all eager to see the excitement and did not leave, intending to go and watch the fun.
Some of the men stared at Ruan Mingfu and Li Xiuxiu with cunning eyes.
"These two lesbians are really good-looking. It would be even better if they stayed and became my wives."
"Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself to see if you are worthy..."
"That lesbian has fair skin—"
Xie Yanzhao turned sideways and stood behind Ruan Mingfu to block the malicious sight of these people. He turned his head slightly and accurately locked onto the few people who were talking about Ruan Mingfu the most.
When those people were swept by his fierce gaze, they were like chickens with their necks strangled.
Meeting Xie Yanzhao's gaze, everyone was terrified and dared not say anything else.
The four dogs led the group to a dilapidated hut.
The house is very simple.
It was covered with thatch, and I didn't know if it would leak when it rained. At first glance, there were only four rooms, except for the kitchen on the side. The yard was a dark muddy ground, and there were two skinny chickens walking around.
The small yard was full of unkempt chicken droppings and was very dirty.
There was a tree next to the yard, and a man was tied under it.
The person's hair was disheveled and her body was in a mess, and she looked nothing like her. She sat on the ground, and when so many people came over, she didn't even react at all, like a piece of wood.
When Ms. Luan saw her, her heart skipped a beat.
Without waiting for the villagers to call for help, she kicked the simple courtyard gate down.
"Xiao Rong?"
Ms. Luan pulled aside her messy hair and saw a face that looked 70% like Uncle Luan.
At this moment, she was no longer the shy and well-behaved girl that Ms. Luan remembered. She looked a little wooden, and exuded a dead air. There was a rope tied around Luan Rong's neck, and the other end was tied to the tree.
"Xiao Rong, I'm your aunt!"
Luan Rong's eyes regained some focus.
"aunt?"
"Don't be afraid," Ms. Luan was furious and wanted to kill the whole family. "When my aunt comes, she will definitely take you away."
Only then did Gen Sigou react.
He rushed over and said, "You can't take her away. She is my second sister-in-law."
"roll!"
Ms. Luan kicked it.
She was not a person with a good temper, and she became even more furious when she saw Luan Rong tying her to a tree like a dog.
Ye Qiu also hurried over to help.
"What a sin."
Ruan Mingfu felt even worse.
"No," seeing this, even a pig would have reacted, "You are not a relative of Gen Ergou's family, you are here to save her!"
"Don't leave!"
"Yes, you are not allowed to leave."
The villagers who had been kind and amiable just now immediately changed their expressions and looked at them fiercely. Some people even picked up stones from the ground and stared at them defensively, as if they would throw them if they made any more moves.
"This is Ergou's wife, you can't take her away."
"right!"
"If they really let them take the people away, what dignity will our Hehua Village have?"
"No, I have to go call the village chief..."
In order to prevent people from escaping, the villagers spontaneously blocked the exit.
Ruan Mingfu frowned and grabbed Xie Yanzhao's hand with some fear.
"Don't worry."
Xie Yanzhao had been on many missions and met many people. As early as when Ms. Luan told him about Luan Rong, he had guessed most of it.
It is said that poor mountains and bad waters produce unruly people, and there is some truth to this. These people seem to have no wisdom, and when they are evil, they are more pure and vicious than others.
While they were confronting the villagers, Luan Rong on the other side also reacted.
“Aunt, are you an aunt?”
Luan Rong's eyes slowly turned red and tears soon fell.
She grabbed Ms. Luan's clothes tightly, "Aunt, are you here to take me away? Aunt..."
Like a dying person grabbing the last straw, Luan Rong stared at her intently, afraid that she would say no. Because of her big movements, her sleeves fell off.
The exposed arm had countless scars of varying sizes.
There were two fatal wounds on the wrists, which was shocking.
The latest one seemed to have been cut a few days ago. Because of her rough movements, the wound split open and blood was faintly seen. Luan Rong seemed to feel no pain and just held on to Ms. Luan tightly.
"Don't worry, I will definitely take you away from here."
A bodyguard came forward and cut the rope that tied her.
Ms. Luan's face was gloomy, and upon closer inspection, tears were actually flashing in her eyes. She helped Luan Rong up and was about to leave.
The four dogs climbed up and opened their arms to block the people.
"She is my sister-in-law, you are not allowed to take her away!"
"roll."
The ribs that were kicked by Ms. Luan were still aching, and he wanted to leave...but thinking of his mother and Gen Ergou, Gen Sigou still stood in front of the two of them.
"No, she can't leave."
The bodyguard came over and dragged the dog away.
The other party was fat and strong, while the half-grown boy was very thin and weak. How could Gen Sigou be his opponent? He struggled until his face turned red, but he still couldn't get rid of the other party.
Seeing that a group of people were about to step out of the yard, Gensigou became extremely anxious.
"You are not allowed to take her away, come back... come back!"
The villagers even held hoes and looked at them fiercely.
"Don't even think about taking people away."
"Yes," several villagers stared at Li Xiuxiu lustfully, "Once you enter our village, you are a member of our village. Even if you die, you are a dead person of our Hehua Village."
“That’s right!”
Father Ruan frowned, "She is my niece. She was sold here, not from your village..."
"Dad," Qi Yangyan held Father Ruan, "There's no way to reason with them. Don't hurt yourself if you go over there."
As soon as the voice fell, the bodyguards quickly surrounded Ruan Mingfu and others, showing the knives in their hands and looking fiercely at the aggressive villagers.
Those people had never left Hehua Village in their entire lives, so how could they have ever seen such a scene?
They were all shocked.
While everyone was hesitating, Gen Sigou hurriedly said, "Everyone help us surround her, our second brother will definitely reward you handsomely."
Villager: ...I'm moved.
"No matter what, you want to take people away, but you can't."
“That’s right!”
"This is a new society. I don't believe these people dare to kill people."
“…”
The villagers who had originally thought of giving up rekindled their fighting spirit.
"What should we do now? Are we really going to fight with them?"
Ruan Mingfu frowned, blaming Gen Sigou for that shout.
If I had known this earlier, I should have shut his mouth.
"Don't worry," Xie Yanzhao pulled her behind him, "things are not that bad."
Ruan Mingfu breathed a sigh of relief.
"Aunt?"
Although Luan Rong was angry, she was particularly dependent on Ms. Luan. Seeing the stalemate between the two parties, she was afraid that she would be left behind.
"Xiaorong, Auntie will definitely take you away."
With these words, Luan Rong felt much more at ease.
"Get out of the way."
Qi Yangyan was not a good man. He winked behind him and the bodyguard holding Gensi Gou immediately brought the man out.
"Whoever dares to stop me, I will have his arm cut off."
Upon hearing this, the blocked-mouthed Gen Sigou struggled even harder, with fear mixed in, and tears welling up in his eyes.
The other villagers were also frightened.
They would break people's arms at will, which was even more cruel than the landlords.
"Let me, or not?"
The villagers looked at each other, and none of them dared to come up with this idea.
“No!”
A voice came from behind the villager, Qi Yangyan squinted his eyes and looked over, only to see a skinny man who was also dressed in rags walking over.
Gen Sigou finally pulled off the bodyguard's hand that was covering his mouth and looked at the newcomer with tears in his eyes.
"Brother, you must save me!"
