After playing wildly for half a day and being frightened, the two children were now very sleepy. Maomao shook his head hesitantly: "Aunt, can you take me to Piaoxianglou to find my brother? I'll let my brother go find grandpa!"
Madam Liu also felt that it was not appropriate to take the child back rashly. Since Maomao's elder brother was in the city, it would be safest to hand the child over to his elder brother.
So she went against the crowd leaving the city and walked towards Piaoxianglou with her child.
Because of the lantern festival in the city, Li Jianmin was busy until the guests left, and he just had time to sit down in the lobby and rest for a while.
Maomao rushed in from outside the door like a little firecracker and threw himself into his brother's arms.
Li Jianmin staggered when he was pushed by his brother. After he finally managed to steady himself, he heard the whimpering of his brother in his arms.
At this time, Madam Liu came in from outside the door and told Li Jianmin what had happened to the two children.
Madam Liu patted Maomao on the back and said, "Alright, it's getting late. I've brought the child to you, and I'll be going back now!"
Li Jianmin quickly stood up and sent Madam Liu to the door: "Thank you very much today, auntie. I will definitely come to thank you another day!" If Madam Liu had not stopped the human traffickers in time today, Li Jianmin couldn't even imagine the consequences.
After seeing Madam Liu off, Li Jianmin turned around and looked at the two children who were drooping their heads. They were obviously very sleepy.
Li Jianmin took them to his room, fetched water for them to wash, and arranged for them to sleep on his bed first.
After having fun for half a day, the two children knew they had reached a safe place, so they no longer cared about anything and fell asleep almost as soon as they touched the pillow.
At this time, the two teams of people who were searching for the children all over the street were obviously extremely anxious, but they could not find any trace of the two children.
Several people searched the streets assigned to them, but could not find the whereabouts of the two children.
Grandpa Li was supported by Daya and came to the appointed meeting place. He looked at the other side with hope, hoping that his granddaughter on the other side could bring good news.
When Li Yan and her group of three hurried over to join them, Grandpa Li stumbled forward, grabbed his granddaughter's hand, and said hoarsely, "How is it? Did you find it?"
In fact, when Mr. Li saw the three people, he already knew the result, but he still wanted to get it confirmed in person.
Li Yan knew that the longer the time passed, the less likely it would be to find the missing child! If they had been trafficked to the northwest by human traffickers, finding their child in the vast sea of people would be like looking for a needle in a haystack, with little hope.
Li Yan felt a sense of powerlessness in her heart. She knew that time was running out and she had to take action as soon as possible.
So he said to them, "Go to Piaoxiang Tower and wait for me. I'm going to go find the county magistrate and beg him to send someone to help with the search!"
Just as Li Yan was about to leave, her cousin Li Jianmin came out of Piaoxiang Tower. He came forward in surprise and said, "Master, I was just about to go look for you. The two children are already asleep in my room!"
Old Master Li stumbled forward, grasped his eldest grandson's hand, and asked uncertainly, "What? Those two children are in your room now?"
Li Jianmin nodded and recounted what had happened when Madam Liu brought the two of them here.
Old Master Li patted his chest in fear and murmured, "God bless me, it's all thanks to his aunt. Tomorrow I will go to her house in person to thank her!" After that, he hurried to the restaurant.
Perhaps his tense nerves relaxed all of a sudden, for just as Mr. Li took a step forward, his legs went soft and he fell to the ground. The youngsters in front of the restaurant exclaimed in surprise and hurried forward to support Mr. Li.
Looking at the nervous expressions of the younger generation, Mr. Li, who was sitting on the ground, waved his hands and said, "It's okay, it's okay, I just slipped!"
Now that the children had been found, Mr. Li, who had been in panic for half a day, finally felt relieved.
Faced with the concern of the younger generations, he did not want to make them worry too much, so with the help of his eldest grandson, he stood up nimbly from the ground and walked towards Piaoxiang Tower at great speed.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Mr. Li was indeed not seriously injured!
When the group came to the room, they saw the two heartless children sleeping soundly under the quilt. Their hearts, which had been anxious all night, finally calmed down!
