Pu Cao hugged Shanzi home, and met Chunni who took the peach blossom out. When the little girl heard that something had happened to Shanzi, her eyes were red from crying, and when she saw her sister-in-law and Shanzi coming back together, she immediately ran up and pulled Pucao's clothes, and apologized repeatedly, "Sister-in-law, it's all my fault." I shouldn't have been playful, I didn't take care of Shanzi..."

Chunni also stepped forward and asked with a guilty face, "Shanzi didn't get hurt, did he?" It's all my fault, I'm busy cooking and not taking care of the kids. Next time, I will detain them to play in the yard, and now this person is too bad..."

Shanzi was not harmed in any way, and the matter had nothing to do with the flower woman. Pu Cao naturally didn't blame Chunni, and whispered the matter, and said at the end, "You go back first, and by the way, help me steam two bowls of egg custard." Shanzi, I still have to ask here. ”

"Good, good. You have to ask, you were kicked out by the Zhang family at the beginning, and you had to die and live all day long, and then the Zhang family had another incident, and I paid too much attention to where this child came from. It would be great if he could find his family, and whoever loses their child is in a hurry. Chunnier was kind-hearted, and she was very happy to hear that Shanzi had relatives looking for her.

Pu Cao faintly felt that Shanzi in her arms was a little trembling, and hurriedly signaled Chunni to stop talking, and then picked up Peach Blossom to help Chunni, and then carried Shanzi into the house.

This kid was just playing by the river, and it was inevitable that he would be dirty and dirty, and then he struggled to resist, and now he was no different from a mud monkey.

Pu Cao rummaged through the box and found a set of clean clothes, and joked with a smile while helping Shanzi change down, "You naughty bag, didn't you promise your sister to go home early just now, why did you play so late?" ”

Shanzi lowered his little head and let his sister fiddle with the change of clothes, and when he heard this, he quietly raised his eyes and glanced at his sister, and in his careful eyes, he felt that his sister was no different from the past, and immediately felt much better, and responded in a low voice, "Fat Dun'er, they lost the war, and they have to fight again." Next time I'll be sure to go home early..."

"Okay, listening to my sister is a good boy. Now that there are many bad people, you have to be more careful at all times, otherwise if you encounter something like today, what if your sister arrives late and you are arrested? ”

Shanzi seemed to think of what happened just now, and his little body shrank into a ball in fright, and his voice was crying again, "Woo, sister, Shanzi is afraid, that person wants to arrest me." Shanzi don't leave her sister, Shanzi won't leave! ”

Pu Cao's heart was so painful that she shrank suddenly, and stepped forward to grab Shanzi and gently comforted her, "Shanzi is not afraid, there is a sister here." No matter what others say, as long as you don't want to leave, my sister is desperate to keep you. Okay, don't be afraid, don't be afraid! ”

Pu Cao is a person who does what he says, and he never breaks his promise to his children even if he doesn't talk about walking around with many villagers on weekdays. Therefore, her words are very reassuring in the hearts of children. With such a guarantee, Shanzi was really much better, and his small body slowly softened.

Pu Cao secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and began to slowly talk again, "Our Shanzi is a brave little man, and now Shanzi is still young, and my sister protects Shanzi." When my sister is old and Shanzi grows up, we Shanzi will have to protect my sister. ”

"Of course, whoever bullies my sister, Shanzi will beat him!" Shanzi waved his small fist, and his face was three points better.

Pu Cao hurriedly took the opportunity to say, "Shanzi, just now my sister asked the person who caught you, that is not a villain who abducts and sells children, he said that he is your uncle." In this way, my sister is a little worried, if he is a villain, it would be good for your eldest brother Fang to beat him out. But he said it was your uncle, and my sister couldn't drive people away. Why don't you tell your sister how you came to our village? Where is your original home? In this way, my sister can refute that person, otherwise he really wants to take you away, and my sister will not be able to keep you even if she goes to the mansion. ”

When Shanzi heard this, his little hand immediately wrapped his arms around his sister's neck, and after a long time, he seemed to have made up his mind before saying, "My mother took me out in the car... After walking for many days, a lot of riders came running next to the horse, and my mother cried a lot, and later... Later, my mother said that she would not let me go home when I grew up. The carriage kept running, and I was alone... I'm hungry, I'm afraid! I miss my mother..."

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid! With my sister here, Shanzi is not afraid, it's all over! The horror that Xu had been buried in his heart for many days was finally pierced, and Shanzi cried heartbreakingly at the top of his throat.

Pu Cao's eyes are also red, although Shanzi didn't say much, but she faintly guessed that this must be another feud in a wealthy family, the mother and son fled in danger, and were in danger halfway, and the mother gave up her life to send the child to escape in a carriage alone, and she was afraid that she was already more than lucky. What kind of hatred and grievances can make a mother tell her son not to go home even if he grows up. I don't want my son to get involved in those fights again, I just want him to grow up safely and live happily, right?

Pu Cao looked up at the inky night outside the window, and sighed in her heart, Xu is really Shanzi's mother praying, Shanzi can live in Nangou Village, and finally become her younger brother, and she will take care of her and grow up. Even if you can't be rich, it's always not rare to live a happy life for a lifetime. Great mother, really admirable!

Shanzi was tired of crying, and began to sobble and burp, Pucao gently smoothed him down, and slowly asked his name again. However, the five-year-old child has no words yet, just a simple Qin Rui, nicknamed Brother Shou. When Pucao asked him where his family lived, Shanzi couldn't answer, only said that the door of the house was very high.

Pucao was not reluctant, and coaxed him to say some small things about playing on weekdays, and Chunni came in with Peach Blossom and egg custard. Shanzi played for half an afternoon, and only then did he tell the things that had been hidden for many days to be clean and thorough, and he was already hungry at this time. Without waiting for Pucao to start feeding, he picked up the bowl and snorted and ate it to the sky, and at the end he covered his mouth and yawned.

Pu Cao hurriedly laid out the quilt and coaxed him to sleep. Seeing that this kid snored, the three women, two big and one small, all breathed a sigh of relief. Pu Cao remembered what the young man had said, instructed Chunni and Peach Blossom to take care of Shanzi, and then went out again.

Peach Blossom was holding the bowl and eating the egg custard in small bites, while carefully looking at Shanzi's little face, looking very serious. Seeing this, Chunni was not in suspense, and turned back to her house to take care of her son, who was learning to turn over.

Besides, Fang Jie and Chu Fei were sitting in the hall drinking wine and gossiping, but their eyes swept towards the door from time to time, until Pu Cao walked in the door. The two got up to greet each other almost at the same time, Fang Jie glanced at Chu Fei, Chu Fei coughed dryly and laughed twice, "It's really annoying Mrs. Sister-in-law, I don't know what happened to my nephew?" ”

Pu Cao frowned, didn't pay attention to his words, but sat down next to Fang Jie steadily, took a sip of the hot tea handed by Aunt Jiang, and then said lightly, "This son is polite, my brother is fine, you don't have to worry about it." In addition, I have not remarried, please call me Zhang Dongjia. ”

Chu Fei's face froze, and he touched his nose slightly embarrassed, and then responded, "It's reckless." ”

Fang Jie saw that Chu Fei was deflated by Pucao, he smiled secretly in his heart, raised his hand to make vegetables for Pucao, and persuaded in a low voice, "If you are hungry, you will talk about it after you have eaten enough." ”

Pu Cao heard Shanzi talk about the reason for the dislocation just now, and his heart was panicked, where could he still eat. He smiled and said, "It's better to take care of the matter before eating, it's not comfortable to put it in your heart." ”

"Okay, there's a solution to everything, don't worry."

"Hmm."

The two of them spoke in such a low voice, but Chu Fei was so anxious that he couldn't wait so he had to ask again, "Zhang Dongjia, can my nephew say how he fell, can he say the family's surname and first name?" ”

Pu Cao turned his head and saw that the urgency in his eyes didn't look like a fake, so he asked, "This son, I'm afraid I want you to tell me the details first." After all, this world is too chaotic, and our Shanzi is well-behaved, so I don't have to be more guarded. To tell the truth, Shanzi did come to the village from outside, and I just asked a few details. Now it's up to Childe to prove your kinship with him. ”

Chu Fei was born in Houmen, and he was raised with support since he was a child, and he was hurt again and again when he opened his mouth like this, and he was also angry in his heart, so he was not too polite, and said directly, "Zhang Dongjia can call me Chu Fei, if this child is a child of my sister's exile, he should be eight years old this year, and he will be born in early June." The surname is Qin Mingrui, and the milk name is Brother Shou.

A year ago, my sister was angry and wanted to leave home because of some quarrels with her husband's family. It was my father who was out on a campaign, and I didn't return from a study tour, so my sister took the child to my aunt in Shanyin County.

I don't want to meet thieves on the road, my sister is unlucky... Killed. ”

Speaking of this, a touch of guilt and hatred flashed in Chu Fei's eyes, showing that he had a deep relationship with his sister, and he was extremely remorseful for his sister's death. He raised his hand and drank a glass of wine, stabilized his mood, and then said, "My father and I got the news and sent people to investigate in many ways to find out that this child escaped with his life and was outcast. But after searching for a year to no avail, I didn't expect to find it here today, and if my father knew about it, he would be happy. ”

Pu Cao heard him talk so lightly about the process of Shanzi Niang's departure from home, and he was very disdainful. This is the case for many large families, and they pursue the principle of "family ugliness should not be publicized". Even if you fight to the death, you still have to pretend to be happy in front of outsiders.

Of course, she didn't want to listen to those dirty things, but she didn't like Shanzi to return to such a dangerous place in the future.

"Listening to Chu Gongzi's words, it seems that you are not at home all the year round, and you must not have seen your nephew a few times. So how can you be sure that Shanzi is your sister's bloodline? ”

Chu Fei heard her words and asked stiffly, and his eyes flashed and said, "My father once looked for a painter to draw Brother Shou'er's appearance, and I naturally saw it clearly, and when I saw it today, I knew that Shanzi must be Brother Shou'er." Zhang Dongjia had already asked the child in private, so I am afraid that he had no doubts in his heart at this time. ”

Pu Cao naturally knew that he was the same as what Shanzi said, but she just didn't want to admit it. The first is that he is reluctant to let Shanzi leave, the second is that he doesn't know the foundation of this Chu Fei, and the third is that if Shanzi's mother stays, he doesn't want him to go back to the Qin family. In short, there are many reasons and excuses, and she is thinking about playing tricks or messing around, but she can't nod her head.
