Chapter 24 Can't wait
Cheng Miaomiao buried her head in Ye Ning's arms and cried until she didn't stop hiccups.
He held her waist with his little hands and refused to let go.
Ye Ning felt very distressed, so he insisted on explaining to her the harm of the child running around by himself.
I found out from my memory that several children were captured by Huazi and the family was anxious to find someone. Finally, the crazy and stupid family was destroyed. I reached out to wipe her tears and asked, "Does Miaomiao want to see her father and mother become like that?"
"……In no mood!"
Cheng Miaomiao shook her head vigorously, and her words were sobbing and nasal sounds: "My mom, I will never run around by myself again, don't be like that."
Ye Ning's eyes were also red, his voice sounded a little trembling, and he asked, "I remember to follow my parents obediently next time, do you know?"
Cheng Miaomiao nodded heavily.
He held her neck, rubbed her face with his little cheek, and replied in a dull manner: "I understand."
Ye Ning carried her back to the stall.
Qian was shocked when he saw the two of them clearly cried. He didn't care about the grudge just now and asked, "What's wrong with Sanya? I seemed to have heard someone say that she was shooting a flower girl. Sanya met a kidnapper?"
Ye Ning smiled and briefly told what had just happened.
This really happened to the kidnapper!
Qian was so scared that he said something randomly and bowed again and again, and said fearfully: "Fortunately, Sanya was not kidnapped, why did this kidnapped who killed Qiandao dare to come out!"
There are several children thrown away in this town every year, but the kidnapper has never been caught.
I had known that I wouldn't have brought my children here today.
Qian quickly grabbed Zhuzi and Da Ya and sternly told them not to leave and go out to play. If they dared to disobey, they would break someone's leg. The children were so scared that they nodded quickly.
Cheng Miaomiao cried until she was depressed and fell asleep at some point.
After taking Huazi, there were fewer people in the market here, especially those stall owners and customers who brought their children were all packing their things and leaving this place of trouble.
The sun is getting more and more sunny, and there are sporadic stall owners packing up their things and leaving.
Qian was also weakened by the sun, not to mention that the children had been unable to hold on there and yawning. She took out a few pieces of vegetable cakes from the basket and handed them to Zhuzi and the others, and said, "Don't sleep anymore, drink some water."
It was not until almost noon that Cheng Erlang finally returned from the county town.
As soon as he appeared, a stall owner immediately recognized him as the hero who knocked people down by throwing his shoes. He asked quickly: "How are you, brother? Is that man taking pictures of the flower?"
Cheng Erlang said dryly: "Yes."
The people nearby cursed in an instant: "This person is really not a thing!"
"Luckily, brother, you caught the person and sent him to the county, otherwise you wouldn't know how many children would have been killed by him!"
"It's all my daughter who is smart, otherwise I wouldn't have discovered it."
Cheng Erlang accompanied them and couldn't wait to walk towards his stall. He saw his daughter sleeping on Ye Ning's shoulder, his hands tightly holding her neck.
After looking closely, I found that Ye Ning's eyes were red, and he obviously had cried.
"Erlang, you are finally back."
"Yeah, I'm back."
Cheng Erlang's throat was a little hard.
Qian immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he saw him. After hearing that the man was filming Huazi, he was so scared that he prayed to God and Buddha. He was talking about Sanya’s blessing and great destiny, so he could even run out.
There are two more bamboo baskets that have not been sold, and there are not many of the picked mountain goods.
Cheng Erlang said: "If you can't sell it, you won't sell it. Next time we sell it, we will buy some rice and meat first..."
Before he could finish his words, a cheerful voice suddenly penetrated behind him.
"Brother, I've wanted all these things."
Cheng Erlang turned around in surprise and found that the person who was talking was the brother who sent Huang Ya to the county with him not long ago. He waved his hand and said, "Brother Zhang is not good, why are you so embarrassed?"
"Well, what's wrong with me!"
Zhang Ji reached out and patted his shoulder, and smiled and said, "It just so happened that my family lacked two baskets to hold things. These mountain goods can be bought and cooked soup. They are all what I need."
"My brother and sister, right? Put everything on me and calculate the money."
He looked at Ye Ning again and greeted her with a smile.
Cheng Erlang said helplessly: "Brother Zhang..."
Seeing that he didn't agree, Zhang Ji had to change the statement he could understand and said, "It's a good thing for you and your daughter to catch a human trafficker in the county. When you go back, remember to kill a chicken and stew the soup to suppress your daughter's shock."
Cheng Erlang hesitated for a while, and finally nodded in agreement.
"Then I'll thank you Brother Zhang. Where is your home? I'll give you something to you next time I come to the town."
"My family doesn't live in the town, I live in Shiqian Village."
"Isn't this a coincidence? We live in Xiaohe Village next door, which is very close to each other!"
"I'll have a drink together next time."
Zhang Ji was also a little surprised, but he soon started to laugh happily.
Ye Ning and Qian also calculated everything, and they had 30 cents for two bamboo baskets, plus bath beads, wild grapes, wild hawthorns, wild winter melons (wild kiwis), etc., which totaled 25 cents for a total of 25 cents.
The valuable mountain goods are all mushrooms. It is neither raining nor dry now, so it is difficult to find in the mountains now.
With this money, they were able to buy all the things.
On the way back, Qian was still complaining that the rice price has risen again. In the past, it only costs 8 cents per kilogram, but now it has risen to fifteen cents! Fortunately, the salt price has not changed, otherwise I would really not be able to live this life.
Cheng Erlang held his daughter in his right hand and rice and flour in his left hand.
Ye Ning was carrying trivial things silently.
The atmosphere when they returned was obviously much heavier than when they came. They almost couldn't wait to go home. Even Zhuzi, who liked to make trouble the most, was weak and did not get better until they returned to the village.
…
"Mom, we're back."
Cheng Erlang brought all the things he bought into the main house.
Ye Ning carried Miaomiao back to the room, put her on the bed, then turned around and closed the door, and walked to the main house. Inside, Qian was telling vividly about Miaomiao being almost kidnapped by Huazi.
This time, even Mrs. Zhao was shocked.
He explained to Cheng Erlang: "San Ya is really lucky and lucky. I will take her to the temple to worship him one day and thank you for your blessing."
"Mom, I want to kill a chicken to suppress Miaomiao's shock. She must have been frightened today."
Ye Ning's face was still a little pale, and he said with his lips pursed.
Old Mrs. Zhao immediately glared at her and said angrily: "What chickens are killed? Now, what are you eating when you kill the chickens and cut rice! The child is scared and then sleeps. It's not so pretentious!"
Cheng Erlang said anxiously: "But..."
"But what? Sanya is not the young ladies in the town. She is so cruel. Your father and the others are coming back soon. You won't go to cook yet!"
Old Mrs. Zhao had a cold attitude, as if she didn't take Cheng Miaomiao's life seriously.
In this family, it is basically a one-man show between Old Man Cheng and Old Mrs. Zhao.
In the end, Ye Ning didn't say anything and turned around and left.
She can't wait for the autumn harvest.
