The Wang family, after the strange atmosphere of the New Year, finally ushered in the Shangyuan Festival, on the fifteenth day of the first month, Brother Heng cried and wanted to go out to see the lanterns, Qi thought that the child was still young, so he asked Gui's mother to dial twenty guards and entourage, set the best location for the moon viewing building, and prepared to take her son to see the lanterns.

Ten miles of embankment, a river of stars with lights, lively and prosperous.

Qi hasn't seen such a scene for a long time, she didn't like too noisy places before, but now that she has a son, many habits have changed, if it weren't for her son making a fuss about coming out today, she wouldn't have come out.

At night, the stars and rivers turned, and the people were crowded, and on such a day, the boudoir lady who lived deep in the house also carefully drew her makeup and came out to enjoy the lights.

There are people who put sky lanterns by the river, and the colorful sky lanterns hover and fly higher and higher, carrying the wishes of the lantern people.

Qi felt that such an act was stupid, if he could really achieve his wish by putting the sky lantern, then what else should the emperor do to be diligent and honest, why should the hundred officials be conscientious, and they will all come to put the sky lantern is over?

A layman is a layman!

She scoffed, and Brother Heng was eager to guess the lantern riddle.

There are lantern riddles downstairs, and the color head is not an uncommon thing, but it is an interesting picture, and Qi Shi saw the crowd outside, so he naturally did not agree.

"With so many people, if you get separated, you won't be able to come back."

Adults always use such intimidation to achieve their goals, and Qi is no exception.

Brother Heng is nine years old, and when he heard that his mother did not agree, he used his killer trick - crying as usual.

Qi is such a son, he is already very precious, and he can't hear what grievances he has suffered, and at this time, because she is outside, she is worried that people will listen to him, so she has to agree.

"Mother Gui is optimistic about my brother, there are so many people, don't break up with my brother."

Mother Gui wanted to persuade the Qi family not to agree, but the Qi family opened her mouth like this, what else could she say?

She nodded her head and said no more.

Brother Heng naturally happily took Gui's mother's hand and jumped downstairs.

In Jingnan Palace, Lin Yu'an stood under the corridor, looking at the back of the wind, feeling a little heavy.

She admits that she really can't maintain the same peace of mind as she used to.

What Qi did to her, her pain, her helplessness, her sadness, she couldn't continue to endure it, it was Qi who touched her reverse scale first, since Qi did the first year of junior high school, then don't blame her for doing fifteen.

Don't let yourself become like the person you hate, sometimes except for a tooth for a tooth, the enemy can't empathize and understand his mistakes.

His thoughts were ethereal, and after a long time, Lin Yu'an turned around and walked back.

The lights have been turned off in the inner room of the side hall, and only two octagonal palace lamps are left in the outer room, and the lights are clearly flickering and swaying.

As soon as Lin Yu'an stepped into the room, he saw Zhou Zhiruo walking out a little tired, but there was a smile on the corner of her mouth.

Seeing Lin Yu'an, she made a silent gesture and glanced back at the inner room, "I just fell asleep." ”

Brother Zhi'er also walked out, his steps were extremely light, and the husband and wife walked outside with Lin Yu'an before stopping.

Zhou Zhiruo sighed and said: "Sister Shu talked to me today, she said aunt, when can I go to the garden to jump rope, I will ......"

Before she finished her words, she was already choked, and Zhige gently grabbed his wife's shoulders and comforted her silently.

Lin Yu'an's nose was sour, she gritted her teeth, and took two deep breaths, she didn't want to shed any more tears, no matter how many tears she shed, it would not help the children.

She is a mother, and she is just a mother, and she understands this truth too late.

She comforted Zhou Zhiruo, "Don't be sad, the world is so big, there is always a doctor who can cure Sister Shu." ”

Brother Zhi'er said kindly: "Yes, don't be sad, the children will inevitably be sad when they see it." ”

Zhou Zhiruo wiped her tears and nodded yes.

"It's not too early, let's go and rest."

Tonight it was Lin Yu'an who came to guard, last night it was Lin Zhicai's little couple who guarded it, and today Lin Yu'an came over.

Lin Zhicai hesitated a little, "Otherwise, I and Zhiruo will guard it, your body is ......."

"Okay, my body is fine, I'm afraid you didn't sleep well last night, go and rest."

The two of them didn't say much at this time, and went to the Feihua Hall side by side.

The moon is shallow and the light is deep, Lin Yu'an glanced out the window and entered the inner room lightly.

"Who?"

As soon as I entered the house, I heard a voice.

The voice was very low, and Lin Yu'an heard that it was Cui's new nurse for Brother Jiu'er, and said softly: "It's me." ”

The room was quiet again, as if it was just Lin Yu'an's hallucination just now, and Lin Yu'an was very satisfied with Cui's vigilance.

A huge bed, Brother Sheng sleeps in it, the middle is Ping'an, and the outside is Brother Jiu'er, the three children are arranged from the oldest to the smallest, which makes people happy.

It's just that Lin Yu'an thought that Sister Shu should also sleep next to Brother Sheng...... There was a tingling in my heart.

She lightly went to a small bed for Sister Shu'er, the white gauze on Sister Shu'er's head had been removed, and the scalp that had to be shaved off because the injury was too serious was white.

Lin Yu'an squatted on the side of the bed, looking at the scabbed scars on her daughter's right cheek, two fingers long, and her heart was depressed.

Hurry up!

She prayed silently in her heart, and lay down silently on the low couch.

Hongying blamed herself for Sister Shu'er's affairs, and she never appeared in front of Lin Yu'an during this time, and she didn't show her face until after the Shangyuan Festival.

She carried the baggage, lowered her head, and knelt at Lin Yuan'an's feet reverently.

"The slave and maid did something wrong, and the princess was generous and did not punish her, but the slave and maid were shameless in the face of the princess and the princess, and said goodbye here."

Hongying didn't have a deed of sale, when she got married, Lin Yu'an tore up the deed of sale, and now Hongying is a civilian, if she wants to leave, no one can stop her.

But where can she go? Back to Wang's house? I am afraid that before she enters the door of the king's house, she will be dead in the wilderness.

Lin Yu'an is not a person who does not miss the old love, she has gradually returned to calm from the anger of Sister Shu'er who just had an accident, and she knows some things in her heart, if Hongying is wrong, it is also the fault of stopping the Chen family too late.

But this is obviously her kindness, if she is driven away, wouldn't it be good and evil, confusing right and wrong? And Hongying has been with her for some years, and if she really lets her live on the streets, then she will feel uncomfortable.

Her voice was unhurried: "Don't you have to make up for it and want to leave?" ”

Hongying's eyes burst into bright light in an instant, and she looked at Lin Yu'an in disbelief, and she couldn't believe it.

"Princess, are you still willing to believe me?"

She thought that when the matter of the little princess came out, she was afraid that the princess would not hate her to death, and she would have thought that Lin Yu'an would keep her, and she was very moved.

She nodded again and again, her eyes were red, and she couldn't say a word.

It was not too early, Qi stood up and asked the maid to go to Gui's mother and Brother Heng to come back, and they were ready to go back.

The maid ran downstairs with a "bang", and then ran back in a hurry, her face was as if she had been emptied, "Little boy, he...... He's gone! ”

Like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, Qi jumped up from his seat when he boarded, and Brother Heng was gone?

As soon as she grabbed the maid's neck, and was about to speak, she heard Mother Gui running back panting, "County Lord, Brother Heng, Brother Heng is gone, send someone to find it!" ”

There were fine beads of sweat on her forehead, obviously. She had already gone looking for a circle, but in vain, she came to ask for help.

Qi's eyes moved away from Gui's mother's face indifferently, and Gui's mother was so excited that she couldn't help but shudder.

"Let people look for it, even if you turn the capital upside down, you have to find the little boy."

Brother Heng is nine years old, he is not an ignorant child, how could he not find his way and get lost, he has been to many places in this capital, he should not be unable to find his way and get lost, the most important thing is that there are so many people following, how could such a small child get lost.

Could it be that someone deliberately kidnapped Brother Heng'er? Someone wants to take Brother Heng as a hostage and blackmail her for money? Or did the man have other intentions?

Qi's heart was in a mess, a stick of incense had passed, but there was still no news of her son, and a feeling of uneasiness filled her whole body, she intuitively felt that something was wrong, and she didn't know if it was because she was already weak in her heart, so she felt that she couldn't settle down.

For no reason, she remembered what the man told her about Lin Yu'an's daughter's tragic situation, obviously she had never seen Qi Shu, but a familiar face appeared in her mind.

That miserable little white face is very similar to Lin Yu'an, and the originally pink and jade little face is full of blood, which is so rough that people dare not take a second look.

Qi closed his eyes in shock, shaking his head to expel this strange feeling, but in vain.

Crying, shouting, the child's appearance is extraordinarily clear, like a maggot on the tarsal bone, and he can't get rid of it.

Qi Shi Teng stood up, and the maid standing next to her was startled by her sudden movement, and almost screamed, Qi Shi came back to her senses, and she called Gui's mother.

"Mother Gui, Mother Gui!"

Mother Gui hurriedly walked in from outside the house, stepped forward with a thunderous heartbeat, and saluted Qi Shifu.

"County Lord."

"Brother Heng, why can't you see it, you can tell me again carefully."

Mother Xu was afraid that Qi would blame her, so she immediately told Qi again carefully what had just happened.

"The old slave was following the little boy, but the little boy suddenly said that he was going to Xiaojie, and the old slave took him over, but Brother Heng said no, he was an adult, and he wanted to go to Xiaojie by himself, the old slave thought that it was just a matter of a short time, and he didn't care much, so he let the two guards accompany him, who knew that it was just a cup of tea, the slave felt uneasy, and followed, but found that the two guards fell to the ground and were knocked unconscious, I knew in my heart that it was not good, and then called Brother Heng, there are still people there, let the guards look around, but there is no figure of Brother Heng. ”

Qi's face was pale, and he didn't say a word, and Gui's mother stood in a daze for a while, and retreated to the side silently.

In the Jingnan Palace, Lin Yu'an looked at the little boy in front of him who was crying so much that he couldn't distinguish between tears and snot, and his face was expressionless.

"You let me out, my mother is the lord of Anning, if you send me back, my mother will definitely reward you with a lot of money!"

It doesn't look stupid, knowing that most kidnappings are for money, and being able to react at this time, it seems that this kid is a little smart, but Lin Yu'an didn't let people bring him over because of money.

She really wants to tell Brother Heng that it was because your mother hurt my daughter, so your mother has to pay the price, and that's why you were caught here.

However, Lin Yu'an still chose to be silent, she didn't need to talk much to a child if she wanted to achieve her goal, the important thing was his mother.

She said nothing, turned and walked out of the dimly lit room, "Good food and drink are offered, and if he cries, he will be gagged and let ......."

Before she finished her words, Brother Heng'er's cry suddenly sounded in the room, the cry was several times louder than just now, and it was piercing and tight, "Bad woman!" You let me out, let me out! ”

He kicked the ground with his bound feet, as if he was about to stomp through the ground.

Lin Yu'an is not naïve enough to compete with a child.

After returning to the side hall of the Cloud Palace, she walked in lightly, and heard Zhou Zhiruo's voice, "Sister Shu'er, after drinking the medicine, my aunt will tell Sister Shu the story of the monkey handsome battle against the Fairy Country, okay?" ”

Lin Yu'an listened, couldn't help but look over, and saw Zhou Zhiruo sitting on the edge of the bed, holding a glazed lotus bowl in her hand, stirring gently, with a gentle expression, Sister Shu was pillowing a big pillow with indigo Fu character lines, her face was pale, and when she heard Zhou Zhiruo talk about the monkey handsome battle against the eye country, her eyes lit up, and she looked like the whole person was alive.

The corners of Lin Yu'an's mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly, and he walked in with a smile.

"What are you talking about, it sounds interesting?"

Zhou Zhiruo and Sister Shu looked in the direction of Lin Yu'an in unison, "Mother." ”

"Sister."

Lin Yu'an stepped forward, with a little more warmth in his eyes, and nodded.

She stretched out her hand and tried on Sister Shu'er's clothes, the thickness was just right, and she touched her daughter's face, "Look how good your aunt is to you?" The mother who saw it was all tasted! ”

Sister Shu didn't know if she heard it, so she lowered her head, and just when Lin Yuan thought she hadn't heard, Sister Shu suddenly said with a serious face: "I will also be good to my aunt in the future." ”

Zhou Zhiruo laughed happily when she heard this, Lin Yuan felt that her daughter's actions were cute, and when she thought of her daughter's future situation, she felt sad in her heart.

It was already the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, and Qi didn't close his eyes all night, but Wang Zhongguo was much calmer than Qi and comforted her: "Don't worry, what did the robbers kidnap Brother Heng for?" Isn't it just for the money? Let's prepare the silver, and Brother Heng will definitely come back safe and sound when the time comes. ”

Qi Shi listened and looked up at him.

He was dressed in dark gray simple patterned Hangzhou silk, standing there with his hands in his hands, but he was more calm than anyone else, and Qi's chest was blocked in a panic, and he couldn't go up or down in one breath, and his face was red.
