After coming out of the restaurant, Qiao Xiazhi realized that lunch would take a while. Since the children were all there being watched by their grandmothers, he decided to go to the flower and bird market.
Qiao Xiazhi was very relieved that Grandma and Aunt Xu and the others were taking care of the children.
As long as they are outside, grandma and the others will not let those guys out of their sight.
After all, the human traffickers out there don’t have the word “human trafficker” written on their faces.
All four children are so smart and cute, if one of them is taken away by accident it would be the end of their lives.
So no matter how busy they are, there will always be at least two people assigned to watch over them.
At home, it is relatively better to lock the yard gate and have one person watch it.
Qiao Xiazhi went to the flower and bird market alone.
She remembered that parrots and starlings could learn to speak like humans.
I just don't know if I can buy it here at this time.
The flower and bird market is not far from them, just two streets away.
It's newly opened here.
When Qiao Xiazhi arrived there, he saw two big cherry trees before he bought the parrot.
This is a good thing, so of course you can't miss it.
I bought it immediately and sent it to where my grandma and her family lived.
In the backyard over there, Qiao Xiazhi reserved a small piece of space for growing vegetables and other things.
So it's okay to plant two cherry trees.
It would be too troublesome to transport it back to the military area.
Moreover, the houses in the military zone do not belong to them.
It would be a pity if I don’t live there anymore.
After buying the cherry tree, I also bought two orange trees.
Only then did I buy the parrot for my grandfather.
Just ask the boss to deliver the trees you bought via tricycle.
She walked back carrying the parrot.
She had just come out of the flower and bird market and was playing with a little parrot out of curiosity when a little girl of five or six years old suddenly bumped into her.
There was a man and a woman chasing after her.
"Sister, save me." The little girl could no longer run and could only place her hope on Qiao Xiazhi.
She just met a mother-in-law and she knew that the mother-in-law couldn't help her, so she ran here to where there were many people.
Qiao Xiazhi immediately became more cautious when he heard this.
After all, there are many human traffickers and scammers.
While being wary of the two adults, he also did not forget to be wary of the little girl in front of him.
There are few people on this street right now, so who knows what the situation is?
It's not that she is too confident. Now she is wearing the clothes that her sister-in-law just made for her. It is no exaggeration to say that she is a great beauty.
It's possible that someone is targeting her.
Qiao Xiazhi protected the little girl behind him. After a man and a woman ran over, the woman said, "You stupid girl, I asked you to watch your brother for a while but you couldn't even watch him. You let him fall off the bed."
"You ran away after I said a few words to you. Aren't you afraid that the human traffickers will take you away?"
"Hurry up and come home with me, or you'll be in trouble."
The little girl yelled, "You are lying, I don't even know you."
The woman got anxious when she heard this: "You stupid girl, I just hit you twice and you still don't recognize us. Okay, you don't recognize us, right? You don't recognize us, right?"
As the woman spoke, she rolled up her sleeves and prepared to go behind Qiao Xiazhi to snatch the person away.
Qiao Xiazhi immediately stopped the other person: "Hey, what are you doing? She has already said that she doesn't know you. If you try to rob me, I will call the police."
When these two heard the police call, they might have panicked.
The man said, "We are her parents. Just because she says she doesn't know us, does that mean she doesn't know us?"
"You've really rebelled. I'm going to beat you to death, you money-loser. I provided you with food and clothing, and you couldn't even take care of your younger brother. Now you're saying you don't know me."
"You don't know him, right? I'll beat you until you know him."
Then he turned to Qiao Xiazhi and said, "This is our daughter. Her name is Erniu, she is five years old, and she has a younger brother named Xiaobao, who is less than two years old."
"She is disobedient and needs discipline. I advise you to stop meddling in our family's affairs."
After hearing what the man said, Qiao Xiazhi turned to look at the little girl and asked, "What's your name?"
At this moment, the little girl's eyes were filled with panic, and she was also afraid that the little sister in front of her would not believe her.
Qiao Xiazhi saw the panic in the little girl's eyes, then pulled her in front of him, squatted down, looked at the little girl and asked:
"It's okay. If you have any problem, just tell your sister. If they are your parents, then you should listen to them obediently. If..."
"No, they are not." The little girl thought Qiao Xiazhi didn't believe her. Before Qiao Xiazhi finished speaking, she left behind a word and prepared to continue running away.
Qiao Xiazhi quickly pulled the little girl back.
Suddenly, despair appeared in the little girl's eyes.
There was despair in the eyes of a little girl, a look of terrified despair. Qiao Xiazhi knew that this matter must be unusual.
"Don't be afraid, little sister. Since you said they are not your parents, then tell your sister about your situation."
The little girl might have become wary of Qiao Xiazhi at this time, fearing that Qiao Xiazhi would believe the words of the two people in front of him and hand her over to them.
So he said, "Then take me to the police station."
Qiao Xiazhi said without thinking: "Okay."
As soon as he heard that the girl was going to be sent to the police station, the man rushed over to snatch her away without saying a word.
Qiao Xiazhi raised his foot and kicked the man out.
The noise just now attracted several old men who were still strolling around the flower and bird market at noon.
As soon as the uncles gathered around, the woman immediately started crying, "They are robbing me. They are robbing my child in broad daylight. Look, they even beat up the father of the child."
After hearing what the woman said, the old men looked at Qiao Xiazhi and surrounded him.
Seeing the old men preparing to take action, Qiao Xiazhi immediately said, "The thief is crying thief, whoever is the thief should go to the police station."
The man covered his chest which was painful from being kicked and said, "Why go to the police station? Why go to the police station?"
"The child is ours. We are her parents. What about you? Who are you? Didn't you steal our child? Could it be that we stole our own child?"
In order to make everyone believe it, the man pointed at the little girl and said to everyone: "She is my daughter, six years old, Erniu."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qiao Xiazhi said, "That's not what you said just now. It's true that her name is Erniu, but you said she was six years old, which is different from what you told me just now. How can a father get his own age wrong?"
"Now I have reason to suspect that you tricked and kidnapped this child. I didn't steal the child. The child ran away and met me and asked for help."
"I was just about to take the child to the police station when he came up and tried to snatch the child away, so I took action. I am a doctor at the military hospital, and my profession can vouch for me. You can also follow me to the police station."
"Let's see who is the liar and the human trafficker. If the child is really yours, then I can apologize to you. At the very least, I can't let you take the child away without knowing the reason."
