The old man answered all questions, "The boss's mother and daughter-in-law were not with the boss at that time. That day Master Mingguang's apprentice said that if you want to sincerely ask for a child, you have to get up early the next day to burn incense, so the two Taoist women did not have them that night.

When I went back to live with my relatives in the town, my eldest son was the only one who drove back to the village."

Suxue suddenly thought of what those tea guests had just said. Could it be that the old man's son was killed by people sent by Mingguang? To frighten those who were unwilling to pay to eliminate disasters, or to fulfill the results of his fortune telling.

The onlookers were still talking to the old man: "Some people in the village saw it, why didn't you report it to the official?"

The old man choked and paused for a moment before he said in a low voice: "Master Mingguang was so famous at that time. Even if we told him, how many people would believe him?"

Now that Mingguang has been caught out, the old man dares to come and sue the officials.

The old man murmured again in a low voice: "The boss has gone, but who will support the orphans and widowers left behind?"

Only then did Suxue realize that the person sitting next to the old man was with him. It was a young woman dressed as a widow, and there were two female dolls hiding beside her. The two children buried their heads in the woman's arms.

, only showing two deer-like eyes, looking at everyone timidly.

A well-intentioned person advised: "Then go to the compound and file a complaint. There are people from the county government there. What's the use of just crying here?"

The old man said: "We have already been there, but they said there is no evidence to prove that my boss was strangled to death."

An onlooker with a good memory asked the old man, "Didn't you just say that someone in the village saw something? He can't testify?"

The old man cried sadly, "The day after that villager returned, he fell into the river and drowned."

Suxue pursed her lips, what a coincidence, right?

The old man raised his hands to the crowd and said: "Dear well-wishers, whoever saw my son being followed and strangled to death at that time, please come out and bear witness. This old man is here to beg you."

The mother and daughter beside the old man knelt on the ground and kowtowed to everyone, "Please."

Looking for witnesses in this way is undoubtedly like looking for a needle in a haystack, which is like seeking medical attention in a hurry.

Just as Suxue was thinking, she saw a commotion in the crowd, "The official is here."

A strong male voice shouted majestically: "Spread out, spread out, don't block the road, everyone spread out."

The crowd was crowded and running around. Si Sheng and Wang Zeran also grabbed Suxue's hand and leaned towards the corner of the street.

In just a moment, the crowd on the street dispersed. Even the old man and the three orphans and widowed women did not know where to hide. The congested road became smooth in an instant.

Suxue looked at the team of officers approaching. The leader seemed to be Captain Zhang.

Captain Zhang also saw Suxue and the others, raised a big smile, and greeted Si Sheng, "Ye Xiucai, you are here, why don't you go to the courtyard? Master Ruan asked you just now."

Si Sheng smiled and said: "Captain Zhang, what a coincidence, we are just about to go there, didn't we just get blocked here?"

Agent Zhang was particularly enthusiastic today. He said something to the person behind him, then took Si Sheng's arm and said, "Let's go, I'll take you there."

With Captain Zhang leading the way, Suxue and the others had a smooth journey and quickly passed through the long queue at the entrance of the courtyard and entered the courtyard gate.

Today's courtyard is much busier than the previous two days. Almost all the doorways of the front courtyard are filled with waiting people. Even the police officers and police officers who are coming in and out are running at a faster pace, as if they can't wait to be stepped on.

Get on the Hot Wheels.

Captain Zhang asked them to wait in an empty room in the yard while he helped find Master Ruan.

Before Master Ruan arrived, he heard a woman crying from the yard.

Suxue ran out of the house to take a look curiously, and Wang Zeran followed without thinking.

Zhang Fuben also wanted to go out together. In the blink of an eye, he saw Si Sheng sitting firmly on the spot, motionless. The raised foot fell down again. He remembered that his first task was to follow his fourth uncle.

Zhao Laosan was an adult after all. Although he was a little curious, he was able to control himself and stood motionless behind Si Sheng.

Suxue and Wang Zeran came out of the house and saw a crying woman sitting on the steps in front of the east house. A few steps away from her, there were seven or eight people waiting in line at the door of the east house.

The woman was dressed like a peasant woman, and she sat on the ground with her legs spread in an imageless manner, not caring about the strange looks from the people in the yard.

Because it was where the government was working, the people in the courtyard did not dare to crowd around, they just stood there and whispered to each other.

Suxue and Wang Zeran did not dare to get too close, and only stood next to a few people in line.

The woman cried for a while, and when no one paid attention to her, she scraped the tears off her sallow face with her fingers and shook them off casually.

A neatly dressed woman closer to her frowned and took two steps back.

The weeping woman noticed the disgust of others and began to complain plaintively to the waiting team in front of her.

"Everyone else's lost child can be registered in the official's book, but my child is not registered. Do you think he also dislikes that my Sanni is a daughter?"

The woman's words were incoherent. Suxue listened attentively for a long time before she understood what the woman was telling her.

This woman came to look for her daughter.

After the woman got married, she gave birth to two girls in succession. A year and a half ago, her third child was born, still a girl.

However, this third daughter did not even stay at the woman's house for a full night before she was taken away and sold by her own father and grandfather.

In the morning, the woman heard someone say that the government was registering families who had lost their children in this compound, and would help find them when the time came, so she ran away secretly with her family behind her back. She wanted the government to help her find the child who had been kidnapped.

The third daughter sold by her own man.

"Why didn't the official register me? I'm already pregnant. I just gave birth to two twin boys for this man. In this way, our Sanni can get her back."

The woman was crying and talking to herself. When she talked about the two twin boys, she seemed to gain confidence. She stood up and strode to the door of the house on the steps. She shouted inside: "Master Guan, just give it to me."

Register now. Now that Sanni is back, my family can support her."

But the official in the house became impatient and rushed out angrily, shouting at a police officer who was passing by the door: "Captain Shi, is there anyone taking care of this mess? What's the point of this?"

How can people make mistakes?"

Agent Shi, who was temporarily arrested, had no choice but to come over with a grimace and coax the still crying woman out of the compound.

Seeing the woman being driven out of the courtyard, Suxue could only shake her head and sigh. This kind of selling or giving away one's biological daughter is unavoidable even in modern remote areas, let alone in ancient times.

It became quiet here. Suxue and Wang Zeran were about to go back to the house when they saw a burst of joy at the hanging flower door of the courtyard. They heard someone shouting excitedly: "This is my child. Found it. My son has been found."

This time, the people waiting in line in the courtyard were not calm anymore, and they all ran over with a huff, and Suxue dragged Wang Zeran into the crowd.

"Son, son, my son." A man hugged a teenage boy and cried with joy. He didn't know how to express his joy, so he just patted the child's shoulder and back, making a snapping sound.

Suxue's back hurt when she heard it, but the child had no intention of stopping him. He leaned against the man and buried his face in his arms, letting the man slap him.
