Chapter 216 Who is the father of the child

While they were talking, a Jin Yiwei came over. Ruan Ningxiang didn't recognize him, but at a glance she saw the golden belt hanging on his waist, which was of the third rank, the same level as her.

"I am the commander of the Jinyi Guards, Mo Ruchu." Mo Ruchu stroked the shoulder knife on his waist, his posture was upright and his bearing was extraordinary.

Mo Ruchu looked at Ruan Ningxiang, who was wearing a cane and wearing a military uniform. He had seen this person several times, but he was always with the prince and saw him from a distance. This was the first time that the two of them met face to face.

"It turns out it's Commander Mo." It's the prince. Ruan Ningxiang's cold expression showed visible alienation, "I wonder when the prince will come?"

"The prince probably won't come too early." Mo Ruchu took out a golden token, "But the prince said that if you see General Ruan, ask me to return the general's token to you. The prince also said that the token represents

It’s my identity and rights, I hope General Ruan won’t hand them over to others easily.”

Ruan Ningxiang took her token and hung it on her waist. The token was not given by her, but by Chu Yu.

She guessed that Chu Yu must have instigated the relationship between the crown prince and the sixth prince behind his back yesterday.

The sixth prince was injured in a fall, and the inside story may have something to do with Chu Yu.

However, she didn't expect that the prince didn't bother her and just returned the token to her so easily.

Compared with Ruan Ningxiang's deliberate alienation, Mo Ru was much calmer when he first arrived. He took the initiative to explain the situation here.

There are more than 400 injured and uninjured refugees here, and as many as 70 or 80 are seriously injured.

Ruan Ningxiang went directly to the refugee camp, and Su He followed behind with her child in her arms.

Ruan Ningxiang was concerned and asked these people if anyone knew the child and if they knew who the child's parents were.

After asking dozens of questions, everyone shook their heads.

Until in another barracks, there was an old lady paralyzed on the kang with a bandage wrapped around her head. The old lady was excited to get up when she saw the child.

Ruan Ningxiang gave her a hand.

The old lady didn't have much flesh on her body, and her outstretched hands were as skinny as firewood and covered with deep wrinkles. "Doudou, I am the mother-in-law."

The child in Su He's arms was playing with a rattle. When he heard someone calling him, he looked over with bright black eyes. Suddenly, he struggled to get out of Su He's arms and shouted, "Mother-in-law."

.”

Sure enough, we know each other.

There were many seriously injured women lying paralyzed on the kang. Su He put the child on the ground. The child ran over, held her mother-in-law's hand with his fair little fleshy hand, and said in a sweet voice: "Looking for grandma."

Ruan Ningxiang explained in a low voice, "When she found him, his mother protected him well in her arms. The child was fine, but his mother did not escape."

The old lady's slack eyelids drooped down, covering the back half of her eyes. Two lines of tears instantly rolled down from her cloudy eyes.

She stroked the child's hand and said, "Oh, God wants to take away people. Take my old wife's life. Why did she die at such a young age? What will Doudou do in the future?"

"Don't worry, since I saved him, I will naturally take care of him." Ruan Ningxiang still asked, "It's just that we didn't find anyone else in the ruins. Where is his father? Isn't he at home?"

"I am Grandma Liu who lives on the street. Doudou Niang came here two years ago with a big belly. We don't know who his father is."

"The mother and son have lived there for more than two years, why don't so many people know them?" Ruan Ningxiang asked puzzled.

The old lady sighed, "You know how difficult it is for a woman to raise a child, not to mention that in this Chapeng Street, a crowded and chaotic place, his sister-in-law is young and beautiful, but she is afraid of being bullied, so she can only act ugly.

She doesn't make much public appearances. I was the one who delivered Doudou when she was born. After that, we got to know each other well over time."

"If they don't throw their heads away, how will they live?"

"His sister-in-law is very handy and is an excellent embroiderer. She often takes on some private work and makes some embroidery. She lives a good life. She often helps me out. If she is busy, I will also help look after it.

Eat some beans."

"Then she has never mentioned to you who the father of the child is? Who is the father of the child?"

"I asked about it before, and it seemed that the child's father was also a soldier. Not long after they got married, he was arrested and sent to the army, and then there was no news."

"No news?" Ruan Ningxiang didn't understand. "Do you know which army he joined?"

"I don't know about that." The old lady shook her head, her voice full of vicissitudes of life, "From his sister-in-law's tone, it seemed that she was working as an errand in the capital.

His sister-in-law was from a small town in the south and had a beautiful life. After the man in the family was pulled out to serve in the army, he was often bullied by the bullies in the town. The parents-in-law were old and got sick out of anger and left one after another.

She wrote to the capital, but there was no reply. His sister-in-law buried the old man one after another, but she was desperate, so she came to the capital to find someone.

But after I came here, I inquired and said that there was no such person. In the past few years, his sister-in-law didn’t know where he was, whether he was dead or alive."

Ruan Ningxiang can imagine how difficult the life of the sister-in-law in the eyes of the elderly is in this world. Is it because she blames her fate or this uneven and troubled world?

Ruan Ningxiang comforted the old lady to recover from her injuries and came out of the house.

Mo Ruchu crossed his chest and leaned against the wall outside. He could clearly hear the questions in the room. When he saw people coming out, he stood up straight and said, "The prince has gone to Chapeng Street. Does General Ruan want to go there?"

Ruan Ningxiang held her cane and stared at the eavesdropper with a slightly hostile look, "Does the prince want me to come over?"

"The prince didn't say anything." Mo Ruchu pressed the handle of the knife with his right hand, "I will follow General Ruan in everything."

Ruan Ningxiang intuitively felt that this person was smooth.

Lin Xiao, the deputy commander of the Forbidden Army, led his team to clean up the collapsed ruins on Chapeng Street. During the cleanup, several more corpses were found.

The weather was still hot, and the body had been soaked in the rain for more than a day and a night, giving off a foul smell.

Before Ruan Ningxiang even got close, she vomited out in disgust.

Mo Ruchu, who was following on horseback, frowned slightly. It was rumored that the man in front of him was never merciful when he went into battle to kill the enemy. Why did he look at this man a little delicately?

Mo Ruchu was a little doubtful about the authenticity of the rumors.

"General Ruan is so dedicated. Even when he was injured, he never forgot his duty."

The prince walked over from a distance, followed not only by Chu Yu, but also a group of people she didn't recognize.

Chu Yu's face was cold and handsome, and he said in a deep voice: "If we don't get rid of these corpses, we might be worried about a plague."
