In order to avoid causing trouble, it is better to follow the arrangements for the time being.

"Comrade Si, it's sunny outside. You go inside to cook. There's water on the table. You pour it down and drink it yourself first. I'm really not treating you well. I'll tell you when I get back." Gu Sande Liushenwuzhu.

, shook his head, and without waiting for Si Ningning to answer, he pulled Huo Lang and ran towards the northeast direction of the end of the village.

Si Ningning frowned and stood at the door for a long time before turning around and entering the courtyard.

Si Ningning didn't close the courtyard door. No one in the Gu family was there, so she couldn't really enter the house.

After carrying Huo Lang's basket and putting it down in the shade of the steps, Si Ningning sat on the floor.

The incident occurred in the Seventh Brigade and had nothing to do with either her or Huo Lang, so Si Ningning was not too worried about Huo Lang's safety.

But to be honest, Si Ningning really wanted to know what happened that could make the calm and experienced Captain Gu suddenly fall into a state of confusion.

Sitting under the eaves, speculating and overturning, overturning and overturning, for about ten minutes, Si Ningning failed to figure out a reliable result, and even yawned sleepily out of boredom.

Si Ningning held her chin with one hand, half-closed her eyes and lazily wiped away the physiological tears from the corner of her eyes. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she heard the soft sound of something falling to the ground in the room behind her, and accompanied by the crying and struggling business, a short

The short moment is fleeting.

Si Ningning straightened up suddenly, stifled his second mid-yawn, turned slightly to look in the direction of the main room, and listened carefully.

"..."

The sparrows jumping around outside the eaves made a "chirping" sound, and for a while there was no other sound.

Si Ningning looked away suspiciously, holding her chin in her hands. Just when she thought she had heard wrongly, there was a sudden "clang" in the room, and there was a louder noise.

Si Ningning was startled and quickly stood up.

This time she heard it clearly. In addition to the loud noise just now, there was also the sound of struggling and the tender and soft crying of a child.

What the hell?

Isn’t there no one in the Gu family?

What's inside?

Si Ningning's crescent eyebrows slightly raised, and many possibilities flashed through her mind uncontrollably. One of the most exaggerated and outrageous ideas was kidnapping.

In this remote and backward place, who is most likely to be kidnapped?

Women!Children!

A kidnapped wife? A kidnapped son?

Will it be like that?

Si Ningning shook her head in disbelief and followed the sound to the window of the room where the sound came from.

When I was hesitating whether to go up to confirm, I suddenly heard crying from inside.

"Woo...hug, hug, hug--"

However, only the child asked for a hug unilaterally, and there was no response from the adults.

A similar closed space and familiar words accidentally touched the deepest and softest place in Si Ningning's heart.

Her body was almost out of control. When she reacted, Si Ningning was already standing in front of the window, but what she saw completely pulled her out of the shackles in her heart.

The one crying was indeed a child, a little girl to be precise, about four or five years old.

But the person being tied up is not a woman, but...

A strong and muscular young man.

Si Ningning recovered from her daze, and just as she thought the young man looked familiar, he already called out her name, or rather, her fake name.

"Dongdong?"

Si Ningning's scalp exploded for a moment, and the hairs on his back stood up. But just for a moment, the other party changed his words again:

"You are not Dongdong, you are his sister?"

Gu Chao put his hands on the sides of the back of the chair, and his whole body was tied tightly to the chair with ropes.

It should have been a normal sitting posture at the beginning, but due to his vigorous struggle, the chair was knocked over by him. At this moment, he was lying sideways in front of Si Ningning with his back on the ground and his feet in the sky.

The reason why he didn't speak just now was because Gu Chao's mouth was also blocked. He struggled for a long time before spitting out the cloth stuffed into his mouth. It was at the moment when his mouth was freed that he saw the man standing by the window.

Si Ningning.

Si Ningning didn't say a word. Even she didn't know whether she was shocked by the scene in front of her or by what Gu Chao said.

She was dressed normally now, not the men's clothes she wore every time she went to the black market in town. Gu Chao could actually call out her name at a glance?

Although Gu Chao vetoed it in the end, this matter really shocked Si Ningning.

"Brother hug, brother hug, brother, brother..."

Gu Chao was lying on his back on the ground. Next to him, a dirty little girl sat on the ground next to him fearfully and hesitantly. Her little face was covered with runny nose and tears, and her eyes were swollen as if they were something. She had obviously been crying for a long time.

"You Lan, don't be afraid. Help brother untie the rope first." Gu Chao withdrew his gaze and coaxed softly.

Xiao Youlan hesitated for a moment and finally shook her head, "No, I won't untie it."

Gu Chao had no choice. He couldn't move his body. He could only try to turn his eyes to look at the window and put it down. He said in a nervous and anxious tone: "I know your brother, can you help me untie the rope?"

Si Ningning shook her head, trying to deny the statement that she had a brother named "Dongdong", but before she could say anything, Gu Chao's eyes had already burst into tears, and he begged with grief, anger and despair: "I beg you, okay."

Is that so? I’m in a hurry, if I don’t hurry up, my brother and I will die!”

Brother and younger brother...

Gu Chao's elder brother and younger brother, aren't they Gu Yang and Gu Xihe?

So it was Gu Yang and Gu Xihe who were in trouble?

Si Ningning just felt her brain buzzing, and she reacted immediately. If it was what she thought, then Gu Chao must not be allowed to go out at this time.

Otherwise, if something happens, it will not be as simple as damaging Gu Yang, Gu Xi and these two people!

I will catch up with Gu Chao again!

As for the reason why Gu Chao was tied up here, the person who did this probably had the same considerations as her.

Thinking of this, Si Ningning suddenly took a step back and completely exited the window position.

She couldn't respond to Gu Chao's question of whether she was "Dongdong" or whether she was "Dongdong's" sister. She couldn't really help Gu Chao untie the rope, so she could only choose to turn around and leave.

but……

Even though this matter was beyond Si Ningning's jurisdiction, Si Ningning was not prepared to sit back and wait for death.

As for the specifics, you have to go and have a look first and understand the whole story before making any plans.

No longer hesitating, ignoring the furious struggling and pleading voices behind him, Si Ningning frowned and quickly walked out the door.

The commotion in the production team had subsided. Si Ningning followed the direction and walked towards the end of the village. When he turned a corner in the alley, he met people who were standing around and watching the excitement.

Strangely enough, when those people saw Si Ningning's face, they were startled for a moment, and then, as if subconsciously, they took two steps back.

He slowed down and glanced up and down at Si Ningning, as if he had confirmed something, his tense expression suddenly relaxed.

Si Ningning frowned, feeling a little confused.

There was no time to dwell too much on the reason. Si Ningning looked back at the direction where everyone was watching the excitement and started walking again at a slower pace.

Although the seventh brigade of Hongqi Commune is also a village in the mountains, it is not like the third brigade where Si Ningning belongs, with houses scattered and built against the mountains.

The entire seventh team occupies a small area, and most of the members' houses are clustered together. After walking around for a hundred or so steps, Si Ningning stopped in front of a dilapidated courtyard.

This is it.

"Since you have done this kind of thing, you should bear the corresponding consequences. What's wrong? Did I say something wrong? If you dare to do it but don't admit it, what are you family if they are not moths? You deserve to be dragged out!"

"Yes! Down with the moth!"

Across a courtyard gate, the sound of violent theories could be heard vaguely in the courtyard.

There were many people watching the excitement nearby, but they all kept a certain distance from the courtyard in front of Si Ningning. Si Ningning speculated that they were probably worried about the Gu family's family problems.

If something happens if you get too close, you'll be arrested again.

"What did they do? How did they do it? Why didn't I, the captain, know about it, but you comrades who live in the town knew about it before me?"

"Comrade, everything must be based on evidence! If you want to take someone away from me, then you can provide evidence! The old man in this family cannot get out of bed, the young man is mute, and the only strong man is usually in the team.

I have never been absent from any of the work I was assigned, and I clearly remember it in the work point book of these brigade! You said that this family has done something shameful. What can they do? When did they do it? How did they do it? "

Gu Sande's fierce rhetorical questions and arguments could be heard in the courtyard.

Si Ningning listened for a long time and roughly understood something in her heart.

Taking a step forward and stepping onto the steps, Si Ningning knocked on the courtyard door:

"Comrade Huo Lang, are you in there?"

There was silence in the courtyard for a moment, and then Huo Lang's voice came: "Here."

The courtyard door opened in response, and Si Ningning raised her eyes. The person who opened the door was not Huo Lang, but a young man in a yellow and white coat, who looked about fourteen or fifteen years old.

When the young man saw Si Ningning's appearance clearly, he was slightly startled at first. The next moment, his slightly immature brows suddenly stood up. As if he had discovered something, he turned around and shouted into the courtyard: "Comrade Wang Song, this is the same!"
