Chapter 005: It's Not a Thing
"Wait, auntie, you go back and tell the stone first that we will go to the county, otherwise he will be worried, I will go back to my father to borrow an ox cart to come over, or I am afraid that it will be too late for us to go!"
"Good. Li Xiumei responded, anxiously forgetting that there were still stones at home, but fortunately there was a reminder from Ah Sheng.
So she hurried back and asked Shi not to wait for her, but to eat the nest head left over from the morning.
Ah Sheng's father Xu Dayou, heard that Xu Ning was gone, and immediately went to the village chief's house to borrow an oxcart to come over, there are not many oxcarts in the village, and the oxcart of Ergui's family is still married by Chunhua, so although Ergui scolded Chunhua for not laying eggs over the years, he just didn't dare to be too arrogant to her.
"Shima, hurry up! This is not a trivial matter, I can't imagine that Ergui has done such a desperate thing, it's too inhumane!" Xu Dayou scolded.
"Thank you, big brother!"
"It's all neighbors, don't be polite to me, let's go! Don't delay the time, Ah Sheng! Are you sure Ergui is going to town?"
"Well, it's from the village road. ”
After Ah Sheng finished speaking, the three of them took the carriage and hurried to the town.
Chunhua looked at the ox cart in the distance, and thought in her heart that it had been more than three hours since Agui took Xu Ning to the county, and she didn't know if Agui had done something. At this time, I was not as afraid as I was just now, anyway, my sister-in-law knew that if she sold A-Ning, it would be a big deal to make trouble with her, as long as the money was enough to buy her son.
Usually, when walking to the county, a big man has to walk for more than an hour, and he can get there in half an hour by driving an ox cart. At the three-way intersection, Xu Dayou didn't know where to find Xu Ning next, after all, Chunhua didn't say where Xu Ning was taken to the town by Ergui.
"Dad, go to the grain station first, I saw food on the Ergui car before, and I should be ready to pay the grain, so ask there first. ”
Xu Dayou listened to Ah Sheng's words, and he was right when he thought about it, the town was very big, and he didn't know where to find Ning Yatou, so he was busy at that time.
It's just that when I went to the grain station to inquire, the staff of the grain station couldn't remember that there was a person named Ergui who came to pay the grain in the morning, and there were many people who came to pay the grain these days.
When a few people were disappointed and didn't know what to do, Li Xinmei's sharp eyes saw that not far from the diagonal opposite, there was an ox cart parked in front of a restaurant, which was broken and dirty, and had not been cleaned properly.
"Found it, there!"
Xu Dayou drove the ox cart to the front of the restaurant again, and at this time, Ergui just came out with his teeth while walking.
After he sold Xu Ning, he had a big meal in this restaurant, he had never eaten so well in his life, the hospitality in the restaurant first saw that he was dressed in tatters, and he was very contemptuous, and the dog looked down on people, so he simply ordered a table of dishes, and packed some to give to his sister-in-law's family after eating, after all, he had just sold her daughter.
"Ergui, where is my A-Ning!" Li Xiumei asked loudly regardless of the ground on the ground.
"Aning...... Hehe, I just sold it, and I sold it for a good price!" smirked triumphantly, as if laughing at their lateness.
"You, you, it, are you still human!"
As soon as Li Xiumei heard his words, she was so angry that she lost her mind, and immediately rushed up to hit him.
Ergui dodged away, but he didn't expect his sister-in-law, who had always been weak, to beat someone, it seemed that this time it really made her anxious, so he said: "A-Ning is not the daughter of the eldest brother, and she will marry in a few years, so now she should marry in advance, sister-in-law, don't make a fuss." ”
"Ergui! If you do this, aren't you afraid that your eldest brother will be uneasy underground! The aunt has only been gone for a few months, and you have started tossing Xiumei's family again. ”
When Xu Dayou heard that this person had really sold Xu Ning, he also became angry, no matter how honest and honest the clay man was, he also had a temper, not to mention that the uncle sold his niece.
"Phew, my brother has been deceived by this unscrupulous woman for so many years, and besides, it's not your turn to take care of my family's affairs, Xu Dayou ...... Shouldn't you also take a fancy to my sister-in-law, and force yourself to take care of my family's affairs, but Sister-in-law Tian must not agree, and she knows that she may have to make trouble again. ”
"What's wrong with you, you think everyone is just like you!"
is about a woman's reputation, how can Xu Dayou let him talk nonsense, on weekdays, because his mother-in-law loves to care, especially Shi's mother is a widowed woman, he didn't dare to meet her alone to avoid suspicion, and today he came out to help her in order to find A-Ning is special situation.
"Tell me where you sold A-Ning, and hand over the money from the sale, and I will return it to the buyer!"
Li Xiumei is usually soft and weak, but at a critical time, she is very strong, she has experienced the joys and sorrows of life after losing her two husbands, and she has never been so strong in the face of her daughter being sold.
"It's been sold to the south, you can't find it, as for the money, I won't give it to you, I still have to use this money to raise my son, which can be regarded as A-Ning repaying the Xu family for raising her kindness over the years. Xu Ergui said with a smile, covering the money in his pocket to prevent them from finding out.
"Are you still talking about human words? How many things did your eldest brother give to your family when he was alive, and even the bride price for you to marry Chunhua was also paid by him, and now you want to sell his daughter, do you still have a conscience?"
"Bullshit! A-Ning's stinky girl is not the eldest brother's child at all, she was born to your ex-husband, don't pretend to be the descendant of my Xu family. As for the money, I don't even want to take it, and I don't sell it for much!"
"You...... It's too much!"
Li Xiumei stopped him angrily, this Ergui is so shameless, even if he finds A-Ning without taking the money, there is no way, but the top priority is to find someone first.
"Hmph! The car would have left a long time ago!" Ergui looked at the corners of their mouths raised, these two hours have passed, how can you still see the shadow of the car carrying Xu Ning.
Li Xiumei was desperate with him, thinking that her daughter didn't know her whereabouts now, so she should find her first, and then settle accounts with Ergui.
"Auntie, let's look around here again!"
Ah Sheng didn't give up, and he didn't believe that Xu Ning was sold like this.
Then the three of them went to find Xu Ning again.
Xu Ergui looked at their backs, gloating, knowing that it was useless for them to go looking for them. When you are full, you hold the money in your pocket and hurry home.
"What can I do about this? A-Ning has really been arrested!"
Xu Dayou can't help it at this time, no wonder Ergui was not afraid of them coming to look for him just now, and A-Ning was afraid that he had really been sold.
"Aning......" Li Xiumei cried.
"By the way, let's go call the police, hurry, we can't help it, but they can help. Xu Dayou patted his head before he thought that they were really in a hurry.
Li Xiumei also realized that there was only this way left, and she didn't know where her daughter was sold, finding someone was like looking for a needle in a haystack, or handing it over to someone from the police station to help.
The three of them hurried to the town police station to report the case, and the staff inside registered the case, left Xu Ning's personal information according to the description, and asked them to wait for news at home.
"Auntie, let's go back first, this hot day is waiting, and I don't know when it will be. Ah Sheng reluctantly persuaded.
Li Xiumei stood at the entrance of the police station, reluctant to leave.
Looking at Ah Sheng and Xu Dayou, the two accompanied her to find her daughter for a big noon, the two may not have eaten at this time, the weather is hot, and heat stroke is terrible, so let's go back and wait for news first.
So they nodded helplessly, and the three of them went back in an ox cart.
