The night was deep, and a line of footsteps broke through the silence of the cold night.

The little swaddling baby, hugging in the crook of the bluegrass arm, the bluegrass trotted in front of the small broken steps.

He followed closely behind the dumb aunt.

The dumb aunt followed behind a large group of people, and everyone hurled to the middle courtyard.

In the lower room of the mill behind her, only Qiao's mother was left, she was attached to the pillow and kowtowed, muttering thank you, thank you little grandma.

Her thanks, the dumb aunt naturally couldn't hear it, she was far away.

But Joe's mother still stubbornly repeated Shane's words.

Her child, the newborn child, had been taken away, not by the housekeeper's lady and thrown into the wild to feed the wolves, but by the little mute, Wan Ge'er's child daughter-in-law, who she had taken away.

A series of head knocks made Qiao's mother dizzy, and after giving birth to blood loss and fatigue, she fell asleep groggily, thinking about the scene just now in a daze:

"Do you want to give it or not?" The housekeeper's indifferent voice was like a knife, approaching one by one, and it was put in Qiao's mother's neck.

"Do you want to give it or not? Don't give it, Sister-in-law Li and Sister-in-law Zhang, don't be polite to her, just strangle the evil obstacle in the bed!"

The two fat servants silently crossed the mute girl's small body, approached the edge of the kang directly, stared coldly at the woman on the kang who was desperately protecting her young son, and just waited for the housekeeper to say a word, they pounced on the child and took the child away.

"Ahh I'll throw him to the ground, and when you snatch him out and throw him into the mountains to feed the hungry wolves, it's better for me to kill him with my own hands! I also hit my head and died, and I will go with him on the Huangquan Road!"

The night was silent, except for the harsh sound of the roar of the beast in the mill.

The dumb aunt took a step back, looked at the housekeeper and smiled slightly, and a clear voice struck the night word by word. also tapped the butler's lady's eardrums, "Whether it's a demon or not, or let the eldest lady decide, I think what we have to do is just take this child to the eldest lady to take a look." Whether it's a human or a demon, I naturally understand. ”

The corners of the housekeeper's mouth twitched very unremittingly, "I said that the eldest lady has long rested, and she is pregnant and it is difficult to see anyone." ”

The dumb aunt sneered: "If, nine months later, she also gives birth to such a child." Are you considered to be youkai too?"

"What nonsense, you? How can you curse the big lady, you little girl, you're tired of you?"

Before the housekeeper could speak, a group of servant women surrounded the dumb aunt one after another, and the reprimands couldn't drown the little body.

They were tall and fat, and in front of them, the thin bodies of the dumb aunts were simply vulnerable.

Lan Cao hurriedly squeezed forward, her body trembled with fright, but she used her small body to protect her dumb aunt tightly, "You are not allowed to bully my little grandmother, she didn't do anything wrong, why are you bullying people so much?"

Lancao's voice was crying, and she was completely stunned by the situation.

"Sister-in-law Li still doesn't do it. Don't rob it, just pinch that little rabbit cub to death in the hands of Mother Qiao!"

"Okay—" Sister-in-law Li pounced.

The door creaked open, and the cold wind wrapped a chubby body trotted in, but it was Mama Li. She frantically searched through the crowd, "Where is it? Where is Brother Wan's daughter-in-law?"

His eyes fell on the dumb aunt, and he suddenly shouted in surprise: "You are here, you are really here! Come with me, the eldest lady told you to go immediately!"

When Qiao's mother heard Li's mother's voice, her whole body suddenly softened, and she thought that she had come to check if her child had been thrown out. Strangely, I didn't think she didn't care about the child at all.

The dumb aunt nodded, "Lancao, wrap up the child, and we'll take it to see the eldest lady." ”

"What?"

The same two words came out of different mouths in unison.

Qiao's mother was surprised and asked, could it be that this little grandmother who had just delivered the baby for herself turned out to be not kind, it turned out that she was also going to take the child to the eldest lady to receive the reward, and then hand it over to the eldest lady to be executed?

The housekeeper's lady asked angrily, you are a little mute, oh no, even if you can already speak, you are not dumb, but what are you, when will it be your turn to point fingers at the affairs of the house? No, Mama Li came to you in person, and took you to see the eldest lady, you must have done something wrong, you can't wait until tomorrow to be punished, you have to be arraigned overnight, you really deserve it!

Li Ma was the most frightened, she suddenly leaned on a chair, the chair was too broken, how could she bear the weight of Li Ma, with a bang, the flowers suddenly scattered, and Li Ma's fat body sat on the ground.

She didn't care about the pain in her buttocks, and stretched out a finger to point directly at the dumb aunt in front of her, as if she had seen a ghost in her sleep in the middle of the night, and stammered: "You? What did you just say? Are you talking? Aren't you dumb?"

The room was full of people who were reminded, and their eyes were all gathered on this thin and dexterous body, and soon, those eyes went from surprise and confusion to horror and disbelief.

Lancao was not interested in such a scene, she had already experienced it herself, she only listened to the order of the little grandmother, she was already kneeling on the side of the kang and stretched out her hand to Qiao's mother to ask for a child.

Qiao's mother shrank in the kang, "Are you also bad people like them?Why do you have to kill my flesh and bones?I beg you, don't kill him, he is my lifeline, I can't live without him-" hugged the child and kowtowed repeatedly.

The mute girl's voice crossed the blue grass and became unusually gentle, "If I say that I believe that your child is not a monster, he just has a disease, this disease can be cured, I take him away, I just want to help you, help you fight for the chance to let him live, and fight for the chance to find a doctor to cure him, do you believe me?"

A small face like a sunflower flower plate, a pair of bright and shining eyes, the depths of the eyes shimmer with a serene luster, this luster is so clear, so warm, people from the bottom of their hearts produce a kind of cordiality, gratuitously feel that this is safe and can be trusted.

She remembered that a few hours ago, when she was about to die, this child appeared, she appeared silently, she brought candles and firewood, she fed herself ginseng soup and medicinal juice, she helped give birth to this child...... An instinctive instinct told her that this child daughter-in-law, known as Little Grandma, could be trusted.

In the shocked eyes of everyone, this mother Qiao, who was desperately protecting the little monster, actually let go of her hand and handed the meat ball wrapped in a ball of clothes to the dumb aunt.

"Thank you for your trust. Please rest assured. She took it and said solemnly. Turn around and put the child in the hand of the bluegrass.

"Take me to the eldest lady. ”

The dumb aunt didn't look at the housekeeper's wife, but only talked to Li's mother.

Li's mother got up in a panic and climbed up.

Someone wanted to help, she refused a little angrily, she had always been arrogant, she couldn't imagine that she would be so ugly in front of so many people tonight.

The housekeeper woke up like a dream and blocked the way, "This evil ......" She suddenly felt that it seemed a little inappropriate to just call the evil barrier.

But a mother-in-law behind him didn't think so much, jumped out, and said bluntly, "You have to stay with this little evil seed!"

The dumb aunt smiled lightly, "Mother Li, you have also seen it, there is a vicious dog blocking the way, I am not allowed to see the eldest lady, I can only trouble you to sue the eldest lady, I have been restricted from freedom......"

Mama Li glanced at the mother-in-law, didn't care about being polite to the housekeeper, and her face darkened, "The eldest lady's matter is urgent, who dares to delay?"

The housekeeper's lady naturally didn't want to offend Li's mother, and she was even more afraid that she would go back and give herself a small report in front of the eldest lady, and spit on the mother-in-law, "I don't have the eyesight to see the child, since it is the eldest wife's daughter-in-law, you dare to stop it?"

The mother-in-law panicked and hurriedly dodged away.

The dumb aunt motioned for Lancao to go first.

The newborn child was taken away.

The dumb aunt followed.

Li's mother trotted away.

The housekeeper thought about it, turned around and glared at Qiao's mother on the kang, and left.

All gone.

Zhou's mother wrapped up one of her own burdens and left in the crowd.

Qiao's mother's heart was taken away, and whether her child was dead or alive could only be pinned on the little child daughter-in-law. (To be continued.) )
