Chapter 197: Suspicion

Why is Zhu so sure that Ji Xiu'e can save herself?

Ji Qingshan and Kang Pozi didn't buy Ji Jiuzi's account season, could it be that the Zhu family still counted on her to sell Ji Xiu'e face?

Or, Zhu's is not a call for help, but a threat?

Ji tried to recall the subtle facial movements of the two men.

It's a pity that she was focused on Dabao at that time and didn't pay much attention to it.

I only remember that when Zhu was in a hurry and was about to confide something, Ji Xiu'e hurried over and interrupted her.

What was Zhu going to say at that time?

Was Ji Xiu'e's interruption intentional or unintentional?

After that, Ji Xiu'e interrupted Zhu more than once, and she didn't seem to want Zhu to speak.

Zhu simply said that she would ask her to find Ji Xiu'e if she had something.

Ji Xiu'e is indeed trying her best to help the Zhu family.

With this kind of added up, Ji had to guess that Dabao's abduction might be related to Ji Xiu'e.

Widow Xie didn't believe it even more.

"You aunt, how many years have you not been able to go back to your mother's house, what grudge does she have with you, and what grudge does she have with Dabao? She just came to stay for a few days, and she really couldn't do it! ”

Ji pondered for a while, peeling back the cocoons from his memory.

"She may have no grudge against me, but with my father?"

"This ......," Widow Xie was obviously recalling.

"I can't remember anything far away. She doesn't seem to like your mother very much, because your mother is buying ......."

Widow Xie coughed and stopped talking in time.

Ji said, "It's okay, Aunt Xie, you just have to say." ”

Wei's origin is not a secret in the village, and there is nothing to avoid this.

Widow Xie complained about herself in her heart, but Ji insisted on listening, and she couldn't help it.

"That's it...... It's not that Ming Media is marrying, and she looks down on it. ”

Speaking of this, Widow Xie was also angry in her heart.

"Just like your mother, whether it's appearance or character, you can't find a second one in ten miles and eight villages! Talking softly and kindly to others, and treating people with sincerity and sincerity, what is she Ji Xiu'e suspicious of? I think she is the same as those red-eyed mothers-in-law in the village, she is jealous! If you don't say how unbearable your mother is, it's best to step on the mud to get rid of them! Your mother has never liked to go out, and she doesn't like to associate with people, isn't it because of this? ”

Widow Xie tugged and pulled away, and when she realized it, she hurriedly stopped.

Ji tugged at the corners of his mouth, trying not to think about anything else.

"Apart from this, there are no other contradictions?"

Widow Xie hesitated: "Xu is gone...... You also have a lot of your mother's temperament, what is there in your heart that you are so easy not to say to people......"

That's true.

Wei was treated harshly by Mrs. Kang, and refused to complain to Ji Lianbai, let alone inform outsiders of the conflicts at home.

But Ji inexplicably just felt that Ji Xiu'e didn't just like her and the second room, or looked down on it.

Eyes don't deceive.

When Ji Xiu'e came to the door, although she had been putting the scores of her elders on the table, the icy face and the occasional darkness of her dry well-like eyes made Ji Du frightened.

Could there be something I don't know?

For some reason, she suddenly thought of the lost son in the second room.

"Aunt Xie, I don't have any impression of how my brother lost it, you can tell me again."

Speaking of this, Widow Xie sighed and sighed.

"I remember clearly that it was the autumn harvest season, and the weather was bad for several days, and every family was busy in the fields. The old and young of the Ji family have gone to the ground, your brother is only four and a half months old, and he cries when he leaves your mother, and your mother has no choice but to carry it to the ground. How can such a small baby resist the heat? Your father begged your father to let your mother go back and take care of the big guy's food......"

Widow Xie's face became more and more solemn.

"At noon that day, your mother was cooking at home. It's hot in the stove room, your brother is asleep again, your mother is looking at the pot with firewood, and from time to time you have to take your brother out of the cool breeze, and you don't pay attention to the pot, your mother is in a hurry, put your brother on the bamboo bed under the eaves, and then run into the stove to clean up, and when you come out again, your brother will be gone......"

Who would have thought?

After a short period of effort, still in his own yard, the child can be lost.

"I searched all over the village but couldn't find it, and the town also searched for it...... You don't know, your mother almost didn't go crazy......"

"Didn't you report to the officer?" Ji frowned.

"I reported it, why didn't I report it? Not only did you report to the official, but your father himself was looking for more than half a year outside, and the prefectures north of the capital and south of Yeyang were all over, but there was no news, and then your grandmother and your father did not agree to look for it again. ”

In ancient times, transportation was not developed, and there were no timely and effective communication tools, so the places where parents could find their children were too limited, at most in the town and county.

And this period is not counted. Zoning is that a family often has more than one child. Scarcity is precious, but how can people not be like this? Therefore, after a child is lost, it is rare for parents to insist on finding it.

The kind of story of bankruptcy, exhausting his life, and going to the ends of the earth to find a child is almost impossible to happen.

This is especially true for civilian families.

When a toddler is lost, parents will not be able to take care of childbirth if they spend a lot of energy searching for him.

This production refers not only to fertility, but also to arable land and making money.

Without money, there is no basic source of livelihood, and in such a situation, who will spend the effort to find a child who is impossible to find.

Ji Lianbai and Wei's were reluctant to give up, but they didn't count what they said in that family.

At that time, most of the Ji family's income was pointing to the second room, and Ji Lianbai left the business and looked for half a year, which was already the limit of what they could bear.

In that half a year, Ji Lianbai didn't earn a penny, and he also took a lot of carriages, horses, food and lodging expenses.

Even if he spends his hard-earned money, even if he is hard enough and thrifty, in the eyes of the second elder of the Ji family, it is not worth spending so much effort after all, and it is far less affordable than having another one.

So half a year later, Ji Lianbai was ordered not to go far again.

Wei, who suddenly lost his son, suffered a double blow mentally and physically, and when Ji Lianbai was away, Kang Pozi became even more frustrated, and blamed her for the abduction of the child.

Wei's was depressed, getting thinner and thinner day by day, and in the end, he couldn't get up from the sickbed.

In this case, even if Ji Qingshan and Mrs. Kang don't stop it, where can Ji Lianbai go out with confidence.

But Ji Lianbai and Wei did not give up, they never gave up the idea of finding their son.

The money earned by Ji Lianbai was stared at by Mrs. Kang, so Wei secretly embroidered and saved some private room and handed it to Ji Lianbai, and then Ji Lianbai inquired about it when he went out to do work for others.

But year after year passed, and in the end, they had to stop their hopeless search.

"This is your father's heart disease for the rest of your life...... I don't know which one has lost his conscience, stealing other people's children, and he is not afraid of retribution! ”

Widow Xie slapped her face on the kang table, gritting her teeth with hatred.

Ji, who had been quiet for a while, suddenly asked:

"My brother...... On the day Ji Mu was lost, Ji Xiu'e was not there? ”
