Chapter 5

During this sleep, Liu Ruyue had no dreams all night and slept extremely peacefully.

She was woken up by a noise.

After stirring the veil and washing his face, Liu Ruyue found that there were many people standing in the empty yard outside the door, including yamen runners and soldiers.

Several men and women in civilian clothes trotted over excitedly and kowtowed to her with gratitude.

A woman who led the lead kowtowed, "Thank you Shi Niang for reporting to Mu He for helping me regain my freedom and rebirth so that I can go home and see my father again."

A lame old man also said gratefully, "If Shi Niang had not risked reporting to the official, I wouldn't know that my son was still alive, but it was a pity for her mother. She couldn't wait until Mu He came home, but it was a good thing for the child to come back. Let's go back to burn incense and tell her mother that her mother would definitely be smiling. Thank you Shi Niang for your kindness!"

A woman next to her kowtowed on the ground with her child pressing her child, "Chen Shu thanked Shi Niang for saving her life, otherwise I would not have seen my poor child in my life. Zhong'er, thank you, benefactor!"

The child beside Chen Shu looked up in a daze. He still had tears in his eyes, red eyes, sobbing and sniffing, thanking Liu Ruyue, "Thank you, benefactor, I found my mother for me. I will never be a bastard without my mother again."

Chen Shu covered her mouth with one hand, hugged the child and started crying, "Mom is back, no one can bully you anymore. You are not a wild child, you have a mother."

This scene in front of him made Liu Ruyue envious.

How great, they are reunited one by one!

Although she is just a female scattered person and has a meager strength, she can also change the fate of others and save everyone's miserable fate in her previous life!

After her disfigurement in her previous life, she was soon sold to another place by Huang Qianzhu, and she had no choice but to complain. Chen Shu and Mu He didn't know if they had escaped from Huang Qianzhu's backyard to see their family.

Liu Ruyue wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and quickly reached out to help someone, "Please get up quickly, why do you thank me for me? It's just a word. Thanks to the county magistrate and Yue Baihu enforce the law impartially and quickly sent people to the village to save you. If you are a step slower, the rich man Huang may kill people to silence or transfer you. Everything is the credit of the county magistrate and the yamen runners, as well as Yue Baihu and the military man. I, a woman, dare not take credit."

Everyone helped them stand up from the ground, wiped their tears and walked to their relatives, and thanked Liu Ruyue again and again.

The county magistrate walked over with a smile on his face, "Ten Niang should not belittle himself. This time, he can find Mu He and Chen Shu, all thanks to your chivalrous heart and courage. Who else dares to report Wang Wu and Zhang Xiaoliu, the two pests in the army? Shi Niang's courage is commendable."

"Wang Wu and Zhang Xiaoliu have already told the other six little ladies where they go. In this way, Shi Niang has helped eight families reunite. This is a great achievement! People often say that good people will be rewarded, and I have witnessed it with my own eyes. Perhaps God is also moved by Shi Niang's righteous behavior. Look, who is this?"

Liu Ruyue was preparing to answer the polite words of the county magistrate, but when she heard it, she couldn't understand it and looked in confusion.

The county magistrate stood next to her, and a yamen runner walked towards her with a cradle in his arms.

Everyone around them showed a look of relief, especially the county magistrate was overjoyed and pointed to the cradle, "Ten Niang, look, this child is your baby?"

Dog baby?

Could it be that this county magistrate really found Shi Niang’s baby?

But, is there really such a coincidence in the world?

She just quoted Shi Niang's story, and the person who stole the child might not have happened to bring the child to Tong County.

Liu Ruyue had many doubts in her heart, but she couldn't stand the excitement of looking forward to check the child. She couldn't tell whether this child was really Shi Niang's baby, or... who made a child to verify her words?

She lifted the sharp corners of the swaddle clothes that blocked the child's face, revealing a round and chubby face. She hugged the child, let the child lean against her chest, and uncovered the cloth that covered the back of the child's head.

There is a black birthmark, oval, and the size of a thumb knuckle.

The county magistrate smiled and said, "Shi Niang, this child is your baby, eleven months old, and the birthmark is exactly the same as your description. He is also a caring child."

"On the night before, someone found a woman's body in the forest in Shilin Township next to Huangxi Township, and reported to the official. Yesterday, the coroner went to the crime site to check and found that the woman was bitten to death by a poisonous snake. There happened to be this child next to the woman's body. The villagers didn't recognize the child. The coroner brought the nameless female corpse and the child together. When I saw this morning, I saw this, isn't this Shi Niang your dog baby? You said it was coincidental, did you say that God opened his eyes and good people will be rewarded?"

People around him agreed with the county magistrate's words, "Yes, yes, what the county magistrate said is that it is a great blessing for Shi Niang to find the child."

"Those criminals, those evil people who steal and sell women and children in our Tong County will either be punished by God or be tried by the magistrate and the county magistrate. All of them will be beheaded. Tong County is becoming more and more peaceful under the management of the magistrate and the county magistrate!"

"It's a pity that Shi Niang came to our Tong County!"

"Ten Niang, the child has been found, congratulations!"

Liu Ruyue was suffering from eating coptis chinensis. She hugged the child and wiped her tears, and thanked the county magistrate with tears in her eyes. "I have found a good word for you. I hope that all good people in the world will be rewarded."

Fearing that someone was trying to test her with a child, Liu Ruyue didn't dare to say too much. She touched the child's face in disbelief and said nostalgic, "I haven't seen a dog baby for seven months. I didn't expect that she has grown up so much. If I met outside, I wouldn't dare to recognize him."

Mu He sighed from the side, "Yes, fortunately there is such a special birthmark on the back of the baby's neck, otherwise Shi Niang would be really hard to recognize the child."

Mu He's father knocked on the crutch indignantly, "The woman who steals the child has been punished by God and has gone to see the King of Hell. The Lu Judgment from the underworld will question her the mistakes she made in the world and sentence her to the oil pan under the knife mountain. These human traffickers deserve to die! It's not an exaggeration to cut a thousand knives, and being bitten to death by a poisonous snake is really a bargain."

County Magistrate Lei sighed, "Shi Niang has found the child, so you can take the child home with peace of mind and raise him to adulthood. Wang Wu and Zhang Xiaoliu have already told you everything. Although Wang Wu bite you and threw away your Luyan, Zhang Xiaoliu recognized it.

Wang Wu didn't recognize anything, and even the other six women's places were not told before Zhang Xiaoliu's explanation. He was just a villain who didn't cry without seeing the coffin. It was enough to have Zhang Xiaoliu's testimony. Yue Baihu's military law was strict and he would not let them go."

He waved his hand, and the document came over with a tray, "This is the road guide I wrote to you and your children, and the proof of the opening."

On the tray is filled with earthy yellow roadways with folded thick paper shells, and a piece of paper folded together.

Liu Ruyue reached out to open the road guide, which read the figure and characteristics of Liu Shiniang. Where did she come from and where did she go, and how she re-issued the road guide in Tong County.

She was a little stunning. She really got Lu Yin and got a new identity. She didn't have to worry about being sold as a refugee.

With her intent, she can work hard and make money openly.

"Thank you, the county magistrate, for being aware of the situation and re-arranged road guides for the people's women." She kowtowed with the child in her arms.

The county magistrate pointed to the purse on the pallet and said, "This is the reward for the county government to report to you to help everyone find their families and eliminate scum in the army. Although there are not many, I hope to help you go home."
