said 。"Liu Zhiheng nodded, guessing it was about the price." 。As expected, the village head said, “Regarding the prices of winter melon and fragrant melon, although we have been working hard for half...In the master bedroom, Jia Ren took a book and lay beside his sister, keeping watch over her.

Perhaps the kang was too hot, or he had read too late last night, but he actually fell asleep.

Wu Cuiflower entered the room and was startled. Seeing her son fast asleep, she gathered her courage and went to rummage through the boxes.

Unfortunately, Lao Li's box was locked and couldn't be opened at all.

She was furious. As she turned her head, she saw the plump little girl on the kang and a wicked thought crossed her mind.

Isn't it said that this girl is blessed Her family has been getting luckier and luckier.

If she were to let her brother take her gambling, could they win a little more…

Wu Erdog was freezing, his nose running constantly. He waited with impatience for his sister to come back.

Not only did he not receive any silver, but they also gave him a fat girl, which made him furious.

"Sister, are you having a seizure I need silver! What do you want a little girl picture for Am I supposed to sell her How much can I even sell her for!"

"Oh dear, be quiet!" Wu Cuiflower exclaimed in alarm.

Looking around, she said there was indeed no one nearby.

“I’m your sister, how could I harm you! The old lady's trunk is locked, I can't get any silver. Besides, Jiaren is in the room watching me. All I can do is bring this little girl to you!”

You don't know, this girl is a little different. My old hag of a mother-in-law keeps saying she's blessed. You take her to gamble, you're bound to win big!

Wu Erdog found it disgusting and tried to shove the swaddling clothes back in. He didn't believe it.

"Don't cheat me, one minute you're in and the next you're out, how can I bet anything like this!"

"How can you be so disobedient!" Wu Cuiflower cried.

This girl is indeed a bit mystical. Ever since she was born, our house hasn't run out of chickens and rabbits. We can even draw full buckets of fish when we fetch water.

The more she spoke, the more excited she became, the smarter she felt.

"And, the eggs at home! We don't even raise chickens, nor did we buy any. Eggs are just something we eat every day, never running out! So, just take her there and try it out, you won't regret it!"

Wu Erdog seemed to have been persuaded, or perhaps was simply impatient. He cradled the baby in his arms, turned his head, and walked away.

At this moment, Wu Cuiflower became a little afraid and chased after him, reminding him.

"Remember, you can only borrow her for two hours. Make sure to bring her back to me. Otherwise, if my family finds out, they'll kill me."

"Alright, stop nagging. I've got to go flip through a book."

Wu Erdog hurried away, not caring whether the little girl was truly lucky.

He had two ounces of silver in his hand, and he could handle it well.

Seeing her younger brother walk away, Wu Cuiflower dared not go home. After thinking for a while, she went to the village entrance.

Everyone in the village was watching the dragon dance, no one paid attention to whether there was one more or one less person.

"What a surprise! It's been years since this lion dance troupe came to our village. Why are they here this year"

"I reckon they heard our village got a good deal on grain taxes this year."

"There's also a possibility that many people used to say our village was unlucky. Now that things are visibly getting better, they're all coming around."

“The village chief is really something else, how did he manage to keep the Li family We're all benefiting from this.”

Everyone laughed and discussed, each face wearing a smile.

The Li family also watched with relish. Jiaxi and Ji'an, the two boys, even squeezed in with the other village boys.

The Yangko team didn't mind the children being noisy, one person threw a colorful silk ribbon.

The mischievous kids started to dance around wildly, causing everyone to erupt in laughter again.

Finally, everyone had received a handful of copper coins. Altogether, they amounted to about eight or nine hundred wen.

The Yangge team was satisfied and continued on to the next village.

Everyone was still lingering, chatting and laughing as they made their way home.

Li's courtyard was unusually quiet. Old Mrs. Li rushed into the house, leading the way.

"I wonder if Funiu'er is awake yet"

Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru went to the kitchen, it was time to cook lunch.

"Mother, don't worry. Fu Niuer has been sleeping soundly lately, for at least an hour each time."

But Li Laotai wouldn't listen. Her granddaughter was the apple of her eye, and even in sleep, she had to stay by her side.

She stood outside the door, listening for any sound from inside. When she heard nothing, she carefully pushed the door open.

Jiārén lay on his side, snoring softly.

Li Laotai couldn't help but feel sorry for her grandson. Studying was hard work, and every night the lights in the west room stayed on until the middle of the night.

She pulled a small blanket and just wanted to cover her grandson, but when she glanced sideways, she instantly felt a chill run down her spine...

"Fúniuer! Fúniuer, Fúniuer!"

Jia Ren was suddenly awakened and rubbed his eyes as he sat up. Seeing his grandmother in front of him, he asked,

"Milk, you're back"

Li Laotai couldn't care less anymore, she pulled her grandson and asked.

"Where's Funiu Aren't you watching Funiu sleep"

Jia Ren was a little dumbfounded, he pointed to the side, about to speak but his face turned pale.

The little cot where the younger sister slept was empty!

“Ah, where is Fu Niuer She was just here a moment ago!”

"How long have you been asleep Jia Ren, where is your sister Was she taken away to play by someone"

Lao Li trembled uncontrollably, trying her best to endure and calm herself down.

Jiā Rén's head buzzed, his face even paler. "You just left, I was a little tired, so I..."

"It's over... Funiu! My Funiu!"

Li Laotai plopped down on the ground, unable to get back up.

Hearing the commotion, people from outside rushed in.

Seeing the kang was empty, Tao Hongying also went mad.

She searched everywhere in the house, even behind the cupboards, but there was no sign of her daughter!

Just then, Li Lao Si ran in from outside. She rushed forward and burst into tears.

"Lao Si, Fu Niuer is gone, woo woo, Fu Niuer is gone!"

Li Lao Si held her tightly, trying his best to comfort her, "Don't panic, don't panic, perhaps someone has taken Fu Niu out to play."

"Look, hurry up and look, go door to door." Li Laer was the most composed. He shouted for the whole family to go out and look.

Soon, everyone in the village knew that Li Jia's Fu Niu'er was missing.

More and more people gathered in Li's courtyard, asking one another.

"How could this happen A child who can't even walk, how could they have been lost"

"Yes, didn't you leave anyone at home to watch the children"

"Haven't heard of anyone filming a flower child lately"

"Even the little girl needs to be weaned, she's too young to be back here still needing milk, no one wants her."

The Li family all had pale faces and were at a loss.

Li Laotai couldn't even walk, she was slumped on a chair, tears streaming down her face like a spring.

"You've dug out my heart and liver! Little Blessing, quickly bring back my Little Blessing!"

Tao Hongying fainted from crying several times.

Li Lao'er’s brothers all had the same look of dread in their eyes. Jia Ren was the boldest, kneeling down and refusing to get up.

When everyone heard that Jia Ren was guarding Fu Niuer who was fast asleep, but Fu Niuer was missing in the end, they were all furious.

"That goes without saying, someone must have taken the child."

The village chief, with his hands behind his back, walked several circles on the ground and then instructed the villagers.

Every household has children, and everyone knows that children are their lifeblood. Especially Li's little girl, Fu Niu'er. Such a small child... If an evil person were to throw her in the snow, she would probably freeze to death. We must find her back as quickly as possible!

"Village head, you say it, we all listen to you. We'll all go out and search."

"Yes, we have to get it back!"

The villagers all responded in agreement. They didn't need to mention how kind the Li family had always been to everyone; even out of sympathy for the child, they would do their best to help.fairs at Baiyun Guan and looking after its business. These things appear to be fine at first glance, but upon closer inspection, there are many suspicious points.Mr. Mo Mei's previous poetry gathering...
