Xiaolan suddenly had an ominous premonition, and she said anxiously: "Third Aunt, help me go to the village and ask around to see if anyone has seen Fourth Brother?"

"The fourth child is a stable person and will not fail to take care of Xiaosong. Just eat your noodles and I will get the fourth child and the child back to you soon!" Old Aunt Liu comforted Xiaolan.

Old Aunt Liu left in a hurry, and Miao Na entered the house carrying a bundle. Seeing Xiaolan's anxious look, she quickly asked: "What's the matter, Xiaolan?"

"Sister Xiaona, you came just in time. If you are fine, help me go to the village and ask around to see who has seen the fourth brother!" Xiaolan said to Miao Na.

"I have nothing to do. I'm just here to accompany you. I've been staying at your house for the past few days! Why are you looking for fourth brother?" Miao Na asked, putting down her baggage.

"He took Xiaosong out early in the morning and he hasn't come back yet!" Xiaolan said with anxiety and worry in her tone.

"Okay, don't worry, I'll go and ask around!" Miao Na finished speaking and hurried out the door.

Old Aunt Liu and Miao Na asked around the village, but no one had seen Zhao Laosi and Xiao Song. They became anxious and called Shangtian Hongshan, Xiao Chengzi and Zhao Yingjun to search together.

Several people finally met at the entrance of the village, but there was no news about Zhao Laosi.

"Where can this fourth child go with his child?" Old Aunt Liu said with a frown.

"We have searched almost all over the village. He must not be in the village. If not, let's search outside the village!" Zhao Yingjun said.

"Stop looking around now. I think something is wrong with this matter. It's possible that the fourth brother ran away from home with Xiaosong in his arms!" Xiao Chengzi said.

"Run away from home?" Several people were shocked and said in unison.

"He didn't sleep well last night. I guess he was just thinking about this! Think about it, if the seventh child said such disgusting words, how could the fourth child have the nerve to stay in this house?" Xiao Chengzi analyzed.

road.

"You're right, the fourth child must have felt too embarrassed and took the child away!" Tian Hongshan agreed with Xiao Chengzi's point of view.

"He just left. Why did he take Xiaosong away?" Miao Na asked with some confusion.

"I guess he thinks he and the child are redundant, and wants to make Lao Qi and Xiaolan happy!" Xiao Chengzi has been with Zhao Laosi for the longest time, and he understands Zhao Laosi's character better.

"It's no use just guessing like this. Should we look around for it?" Old Aunt Liu also became anxious and angry.

"Third Aunt, we still have to confirm whether the fourth brother has really run away from home. If it is true, searching around the village will be useless!" Xiao Chengzi was very calm.

"How are you sure?" Zhao Yingjun scratched his head.

"Whether the fourth brother has run away from home, you can tell if something is still there!" Xiao Chengzi said firmly.

"Oh, stop being so pretentious! Just tell me quickly, it's almost making me anxious!" Tian Hongshan said anxiously.

"Xiaolan made him a pair of cloth shoes in the first few days. He was so rare that he was reluctant to wear them. He even put the more than 30 yuan he saved in the shoe shell! His shoes were placed in the cabinet on the north kang of the east room.

"If he ran away from home, he would definitely have brought these shoes with him. If the shoes are still there, he would definitely not have run away. He and Xiaosong are still near Xiaolizi!" Xiao Chengzi said.

"Then I'll go back and take a look!" After hearing this, Xiaona turned around and left.

"Xiao Na, come back! You go back to look for shoes so coldly, what will you say if Xiaolan asks you? I can't tell Xiaolan about this for the time being, I'm afraid she won't be able to bear it!" Xiao Chengzi was very careful.

"Then what do you think we should do?" Miao Na stamped her feet anxiously.

"I'll go! Xiaolan doesn't know that I'm also following you to find the fourth brother and the children. I just said that I left something behind while moving, and she won't doubt it! Don't look around for now, I'll go and come back quickly!" Xiao Chengzi finished.

I quickly ran to Xiaolan's house.

When Xiao Chengzi saw that the door of Xiaolan's house was locked, he felt anxious and jumped over the wall into the yard. He was afraid that Xiaolan would be frightened by knocking on the door, so he knocked lightly on the window.

Xiaolan saw Xiao Chengzi through the window, opened the door, and Xiao Chengzi entered the house.

"Brother Chengzi, have you seen Aunt Liu and Sister Xiaona?" Xiaolan asked anxiously.

"I didn't see it! I left a pair of trousers in the cabinet. I'm here to get them!" After Xiao Chengzi finished speaking, he went to the Beikang cabinet and rummaged around.

Xiao Chengzi rummaged through the cabinet, but couldn't find Zhao Laosi's shoes. He couldn't help but feel a thump in his heart, but he kept his face and said to Xiaolan:

"I may have remembered wrongly, but my pair of pants is not in the cabinet! By the way, why are you asking about Third Aunt and Xiaona?"

Xiaolan told Xiao Chengzi again about Zhao Laosi taking away the child.

Xiao Chengzi pretended to be relaxed and said: "Oh, you can just think about it! I guess the fourth brother must be upset and go for a walk with the child! I will go find him right away, and you can just wait at home.

Just stay on!"

After saying that, without waiting for Xiao Lan to say anything, Xiao Chengzi left in a hurry.

After Xiao Chengzi met everyone, he said in a serious tone: "The shoes are missing. The fourth brother must have run away from home with the child in his arms!"

"Oh, why is this fourth child so confused? Xiaosong is Xiaolan's lifeblood, doesn't he want Xiaolan's life?" Old Aunt Liu knew how much Xiaosong meant to Xiaolan.

"Since the fourth brother ran away from home, he must go as far as possible to avoid finding him, so he will definitely leave by bus! Let's all go to Mingde to see who has seen the fourth brother!" Xiao Chengzi

Became the backbone of everyone.

Everyone hurried to Mingde and split up to look for anyone who had seen Zhao Laosi. The hard work paid off, and someone actually saw Zhao Laosi holding his child and boarding a bus to Xideng, the county seat!

"What should we do? The guest left at seven in the morning and arrived in Xidun after eight o'clock. It's already afternoon and we can't catch up!" Xiaona said frustratedly.

"We can't hide this from Xiaolan anymore. You all should go back. Da Junzi and I will go to Xideng to find Zhao Laosi!" Xiao Chengzi said.

"Okay, I'll go to my aunt's house to borrow a bicycle, and I'll carry you there!" After Zhao Yingjun finished speaking, he trotted off to borrow a bicycle from his aunt Mingde's house.

"Third Aunt, you have been tired for a long time. Your legs are not good. Go home and rest quickly! Xiaona, go to Xiaolan's house and tell her what happened. Please put it politely and don't sound like a gun! Uncle Tian,

Go find Lao Qi and see what he does. After all, he is the one who caused this trouble!" Xiao Chengzi is much more mature than before and arranges things in an orderly manner.

After everyone listened, they started to act separately. Tian Hongshan knew that Hu Laoqi had gone to the police station, so he went to the police station to find him.

Hu Laoqi came to the police station to report and apply for household registration. Anhong, who was now demoted and in charge of household registration, went to another village and was not at the police station. Hu Laoqi had to wait for him to come back at the police station.

Hu Laoqi squatted in the corner of the police station yard, recalling yesterday's nightmare day, and his heart was full of annoyance and regret. He didn't know how to make Xiaolan forgive him, and he didn't know how he and the fourth brother would behave when he saw him.
