Lin Zhigui shook his head. "I'm afraid it's not easy to find. Every year, there are always families who find children. Xiaoxiao even found one."
It's been five years, and the child might have frozen to death on the roadside.
Xiao Yanjun's expressionless eyes changed slightly. He raised an eyebrow and asked, "That crying little girl?"
Thinking of Lin Xiaoxiao's tearful face, Lin Zhigui smiled and said, "Yes, it's her. However, Xiaoxiao was picked up four years ago, so the time doesn't match."
Nowadays, it is not uncommon to find children picked up on the roadside. Some families abandon their children on the roadside in order to have a daughter, some in order to have a son, or for some special reasons, or because the child is sick and has no money to treat him.
Some of those who are lucky will be picked up by others, while many of those who are unlucky will freeze to death on the roadside.
A trace of contemplation flashed across Xiao Yanjun's eyes, "Milk bag?"
When the word "Naibao" came out of his mouth, he couldn't help but frown. What kind of name is this?
What does a man with this name look like?
Lin Zhigui didn't think there was anything special about the name. Country people believed that giving their children rougher names would make them easier to raise. There were many children named like cat and dog.
"Xiaoxiao was only thirteen or fourteen back then. It's been several years now."
Xiao Yanjun was silent for a moment, as if he had thought of something, and his eyes darkened.
"I've been coming here quite often lately. My family doesn't know about this, and I don't want to use their connections. Uncle, I'm sorry to bother you with this."
Xiao Yanjun is a man of few words. If he can express his meaning in one word, he will never say two words. This time he was able to say so many words in one breath. It seems that this matter is not ordinary for him.
Thinking of this, Lin Zhigui nodded and agreed, "Okay, I'll go to the nearby village to ask around tomorrow."
…
When Lin Xiaoxiao returned home, Naibao was still sleeping. Looking at the dilapidated and poor house, she sighed helplessly.
This family is really poor. They don't have any valuable things. The door is made of bamboo cut from the mountains. It can only keep out cats and dogs. If a thief comes, this door will be useless.
Having said that, even a blind thief cannot get into a house that even mice are unwilling to visit.
Changing her family's situation is a big project, and she needs to plan it carefully.
"Xiaoxiao, what are you looking at?" Lin Rui asked curiously.
Since she came home, she has been staring at the house, with the expression on her face changing all the time. Lin Rui followed her gaze for a long time, but couldn't see any difference between the house and usual.
If he really wanted to find some fault, he felt that it was not the house that changed, but the people.
The more he observed, the more he felt that Lin Xiaoxiao seemed like a different person, especially her eyes. The light that flashed in them was very different from before, but he was very sure that the one in front of him was indeed the sister he had spoiled since childhood.
Lin Xiaoxiao was brought back to her senses by Lin Rui's voice. Her originally confused heart suddenly became extremely determined.
"Second brother, I will find a way to make sure you and your eldest brother can live a good life, marry a beautiful wife, and live a happy life together."
She would not let the story in the book happen again, and she would not let anything happen to her two brothers.
Lin Rui chuckled and ruffled her hair lovingly.
"Okay, second brother and eldest brother will rely on Xiaoxiao from now on."
Although he said this, Lin Rui smiled bitterly in his heart. Their family was so poor that it was good enough that they were not starving to death. Which girl would be willing to marry them?
Seeing that Lin Rui took her words as the bragging of a child, Lin Xiaoxiao was speechless and her cheeks puffed up with anger.
"Second brother, you are too perfunctory. It's obvious that you don't believe me."
