Chapter 152 How to find Huo Bing?
Guan Li knew in her heart that what Huo Bing said was the truth.
But being sold was already very painful, and she couldn't rub salt into Huo Bing's wounds, so she found an excuse to comfort him: "Maybe your parents have their own difficulties?
They had no choice but to sell you in order to keep you alive, and they didn't want to do that either."
Huo Bing thought that she would rather be with her children, even if it meant death, she would rather die together with them, rather than sell them.
Selling it is nothing more than getting some extra money. What else could you do with the extra money other than to make your life easier?
She knew Guan Li was trying to comfort her out of kindness, and didn't want to reject her kindness, so she nodded slightly and replied, "Well, maybe it was just a last resort."

In a luxurious courtyard in Wen'an City.
Nanny Lai looked at the sky, her mind spinning in circles. Seeing the little maid running over, she rushed up and asked urgently, "Is my aunt back?
Did the servant we sent out find my aunt?
Did you convey my words?"
"I've brought back Madam's message. Madam is accompanying Master at the government office. She said we can talk about anything when she comes back!
Nothing is more important than her accompanying the master. "The little maid hurriedly told him what the servant had said.
Nanny Lai clapped her hands and muttered, "It's too late. If it's any later, the city gates will be closed. If that person leaves early tomorrow morning, it will be too late.
But this matter cannot be spread to the master's ears... No, no, prepare the carriage, I will go to the government office to find my concubine myself!"
When Lai Momo arrived at the government office, she happened to see Qiu Yi, dressed in gold and silver, coming out gracefully. She closed the door and turned around to see the person coming. She was obviously surprised and joked, "What's so important that you'd come here in person?"
Nanny Lai's face was full of nervousness. She opened her mouth, looked into the room and said nothing.
Qiu Yi immediately understood, suppressed his smile, nodded to the side, and the two of them walked to the empty room at the back.
Nanny Lai carefully closed the door and said anxiously, "Auntie, I saw the young lady!"
Qiu Yi paused with her hand that was originally supporting the golden hairpin at her temples, her thin eyebrows raised high, without any trace of tenderness and gentleness from before, she asked in a stern voice: "What?
Are you sure?!
"At noon, when I went to Huichun Hall to get some medicine, I saw a woman in her twenties, dressed like a woman. Her figure and appearance were exactly like my husband and Huo Qinglin!
After they left, I found the medicine boy and gave him some money to find out that the woman's name was Huo Bing! "Auntie, can you tell me who this is if it's not the eldest lady?" Lai Ma said anxiously.
"I asked around and chased her out, but she was nowhere to be found. I searched the area several times but couldn't find her. I can only come here to inform you."
Qiu Yi's face was filled with shock and confusion.
She was originally an orphan with no one to rely on. She was rescued on the road by Huo Qinglin, the eldest daughter of the general's mansion, and became her personal maid. Later, she naturally became a dowry maid and entered the Song Mansion together.
But later on, Huo Qinglin only liked to wield swords and guns, and didn't know how to be gentle and considerate. As a man, how could he not like gentle women but prefer rough ones who don't know how to dress up?
How could she be blamed for Song Shu falling in love with her as a man, but Huo Qinglin couldn't accept it. He was jealous of her and made things difficult for her everywhere. What he said in the past about treating her like a sister was all bullshit!
After her true identity was exposed, the two of them completely fell out. Fortunately, Song Shu always stood by her side and protected her everywhere. What was even more gratifying was that General Huo was reported by Song Shu for treason and all the male members of his family were beheaded, and the female members were exiled. As a married woman, Huo Qinglin only needed to sever ties with her natal family, but she couldn't get over it and insisted on being exiled with the Huo family!
It was because she couldn't accept that it was her husband who reported her father and harmed the entire Huo family.
But Song Bing, who was eight or nine years old at the time, was not destined to enjoy a comfortable life, and she insisted on going into exile with her mother and maternal grandfather's family!
"Aunt, this is the only bloodline of the master. If the master knew about it, he would definitely welcome him back. What you would do then..." Lai Momo stopped talking when she thought of the past.
At first, when the eldest daughter wanted to go into exile with the lady's grandfather, the master was unwilling at first. It was Aunt Qiu who persuaded him that she was just a little girl and still had the blood of the Huo family in her body, so she would never be tamed.
In the future, she will give birth to many children for the master, all of them are sons with boys. Why should he be reluctant to give up a daughter?
Only then did the master give up his reluctance.
But more than ten years have passed, and Aunt Qiu has not given birth to a son for the master, let alone a girl!
A few years ago, the master took in several concubines and maids at once, and also had sex with many maids, more than a dozen in total, but none of them were pregnant!
Two years ago, the master finally panicked and started sending people to look for this only bloodline everywhere.
If the master finds the eldest lady...
Qiu Yi also thought of this. She looked at Lai Momo and said firmly, "We must not let the master find Song Bing!"
When a man is young, he loves a woman's appearance and talent. Once he gets old, he only cares about bloodline. No matter how much he dotes on a woman, she cannot compare to his own flesh and blood.
I originally wished that all my children were sons and I hated daughters to death. But when I couldn't have any, I realized that having a daughter was also good. As I got older and my health deteriorated, this idea became stronger.
She was able to compete with Huo Qinglin back then, but now she can't compete with Song Bing at all!
Oh, Huo Qinglin even changed his only daughter's last name to hers. Huo Bing, right? She can't be left behind!
She grabbed Lai Momo's arm in fear and asked anxiously, "Mammy, do you think she heard that the Master was sent to Wen'an City to provide disaster relief, so she came here specifically?"
"Don't worry, Aunt! I've made inquiries. She is a disaster victim. She passed by Wen'an City to see a doctor. She said she had a headache and couldn't remember anything before she was ten years old." Nanny Lai raised the corner of her mouth and comforted her.
"Aunt, God is really helping you."
Qiu Yi's face suddenly lit up with joy, she breathed a sigh of relief, and said proudly, "She and her damn mother both lacked a bit of luck!"
What's the point of being born in a wealthy family? He's still inferior to a lowly person like her.
In the end, she was the one who enjoyed the wealth and glory of fine clothes and delicious food. It was unimaginable that Song Bing, who should have been respected and valued, has now become a victim of the disaster. It really is a matter of time.
"Aunt, what should we do now? But since Huo Bing has forgotten the past, as long as we pretend not to know, maybe the master will see us." Especially since the court sent the master here to provide disaster relief, but after many days, the master has not opened the granary to release grain. Many victims have already left, and the eldest lady is also a victim. Maybe she will leave tomorrow.
Qiu Yi shook her head, "No, I can't allow any accidents to happen!
Rather than praying to the Bodhisattva to prevent them from meeting, I would rather take the initiative to find the person and then get rid of him."
"But there are so many victims, and only you, me and the master know their appearance. It's impossible to find them." Nanny Lai said worriedly.
Especially since the victims gathered from all over the place and were not registered, and many of them even lost their travel passes. How could they find Huo Bing?
