Mrs. Qin has been depressed since she came back. She would be in a daze while cooking with Mrs. Yu, looking like she was worried. Even when she added firewood to the fire, Mrs. Yu shouted "enough is enough", but she still acted like she hadn't heard him. The vegetables were all burnt.
Although Ms. Qin was not very talkative, she would never make such a mistake. Ms. Sun squinted at her for a while and then said: "From the second child's house, come here. "
Ms. Qin thought she had just done something wrong and was going to be scolded by her mother-in-law. Unexpectedly, when she arrived, Mrs. Sun asked: "My second son, tell me honestly, is something wrong? Is something wrong?”
At first glance, Mrs. Qin thought she had heard wrong, but when she realized that her mother-in-law was really asking her this, she felt indescribably sour in her heart.
"Mother..."
She immediately knelt down to Sun. Sun didn't help her immediately, but asked calmly: "What happened? ?”
Ms. Qin’s mouth was very clumsy when she was anxious. It was Lu Laoer who came over and said for her: “Mom, we didn’t meet my sister’s family, but we met Taoer’s mother’s family, too. He suffered a great crime..."
" Lu Laoer sighed, thinking of what he had seen, he didn't know where to start.
With her husband giving her a start, Mrs. Qin also gained the courage: "Mom, please save my niece. She is still young and has not yet grown up. She cannot ruin her life by staying in that place. !”
This is something that has always been difficult for her to talk about. She didn’t find her sister’s family, but she did meet her niece from her natal family. The rest of her natal family was not there, except for the niece who had just turned fourteen. He was dragged off the carriage with his hands and feet tied, and was about to be sold to the Goulan Yard.
When the couple saw this, they immediately went to rob the person, but there were several people on the other side, so the two of them were naturally no match. Lu Laoer was quite smart and spent some money to let those people do it. A chance for them to speak.
Only then did Mrs. Qin know that her natal family had been killed on the road, and only her niece had escaped. She was kidnapped on the way, and was taken to Qianzhou City and sold into Goulan Courtyard.
The madam from Goulan Yuan bought it for twenty taels of silver, and kindly told them that if they wanted to buy him back, they would have to spend at least thirty taels of silver, otherwise there would be no need to talk.
The couple only had the twenty taels given by He Jiu Niang last time in the bandits' den, and some small copper coins. They couldn't get out the thirty taels at all. What's more, after they rescued this man, they would follow him in the future. They are another burden.
Although the family got some money, she was her natal niece after all, and there was no reason to follow her to eat and drink in the Lu family. She was also worried about being scolded by Mrs. Sun, so she always hesitated and didn't know how to speak.
But now that I have spoken, I still need to fight for it., after all, that is the last member of her natal family.
"Mom, that child in Lianhua is very capable. She will be able to help with the household chores when she gets home. In a year or two, I can find her an in-law to marry into, and she will never be a drag on the family. Yes, please, mother!"
Before they spoke, Ms. Sun thought it was something shameful. Now when she heard her say it, she suddenly felt a headache: "Second daughter-in-law, you You're confused!"
When Mrs. Qin heard what she said, she thought she was going to refuse. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Sun's next sentence was: "Since she is your niece, of course she has to find a way to rescue her. In this situation, let alone your niece, even your whole family must not hesitate!"
Ms. Sun sighed, life is difficult for everyone now, and their family is going to If it hadn't been for such an adventure, I wouldn't be alive now.
If you really don’t have money, there is nothing you can do about it, but now that you have money, there is no reason to watch a child suffer like this.
The outsiders who were rescued from the bandits' den could still give them food and silver, and let them follow them, not to mention that the child was still one of our own.
When Mrs. Qin heard this, her tense heart immediately fell to the ground. She was about to kowtow to Mrs. Sun, but Mrs. Sun held her back: "Get up, mother knows that you are all good children. I am more strict with you on weekdays because I am afraid that you will make mistakes because of your confusion, but my old lady is not an unreasonable person."
"Thank you, mother, I thank you for the lotus!"
Mrs. Qin burst into tears, thinking that her family only had such a niece, and she felt heartbroken beyond words.
Mrs. Sun patted her hand, took thirty taels of silver behind her back and handed it to her and her husband. She also asked the boss and Fugui to follow them to avoid any trouble.
"Go and come back quickly, we can still catch up with dinner."
Mrs. Sun waved her hand, sat down and sighed again, feeling a little complicated.
Along this journey, I have become accustomed to life and death, but it is still very sad when I find out.
When He Jiuniang saw this, she deliberately came over to tease her with a smile: "Mom, you are simply the kind and compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva. When I look at it, I become more and more kind-hearted!"
"Go, go, you are the only one who can say it!"
Mr. Sun slapped her and scolded her for being annoying, but there was obviously a smile on her lips.
"That's right, you look so pretty when you smile, don't sigh all the time, your luck will be ruined! You keep looking after the children, I'm going to help my sister-in-law."
< br /> When Mrs. Qin went to pick up her niece, Mrs. Yu had to work alone. Naturally, she was too busy to cook for so many people.
In fact, Mrs. Yu's mood is not much better. Mrs. Qin still knows about her mother's family's situation, but she still doesn't know whether her mother's family is still there.
Thinking of this was also sad. He Jiuniang saw her emotions and said proactively: "Sister-in-law, don't be sad. We have been inquiring about the news from your mother's side along the way. Your mother's family knows that someone is inquiring. They will definitely come here."
Mrs. Yu didn't expect her third brother and sister to be so attentive. She was very pleased and nodded with a smile: "Yes, actually not knowing the news is not necessarily a bad thing."
"Sister-in-law, it's great that you can think so!" He Jiuniang threw a piece of firewood into the fire and said, "Believe me, our family's life will definitely get better and better in the future. !”
He Jiuniang comes from a different world. She has no contact with anyone except various trainings every day. She also reads novels to relieve her boredom in her spare time. She remembers reading a novel that was full of things like that. She was raised to have the best relatives. At that time, she was glad that she didn't have any family members, so naturally she didn't have the best relatives to cause trouble.
After arriving here, looking at this large family, she was actually quite afraid of meeting the best relatives. She didn’t expect that everyone here was so nice, even under such difficult circumstances. , are still willing to help each other and support each other.
She found that she liked this place more and more, and liked everyone here.
Ms. Yu nodded affirmatively: "Yes, I believe you. Third brother and sister, you are a lucky person. Our family will definitely get better and better!"
So With that said, Mrs. Yu's mood got much better. Lu Guilan and Mrs. Shen happened to come over to help, and the four of them quickly prepared a big pot of rice.
