Mu Qiu nodded. "I know, my uncle and aunt went down the mountain this time, and another purpose is to return Dongdong to his parents. Because they are old, every year is not as good as a year, and they have treated Dongdong as their own son for the past few years, they have no ability to let him live a good life, it is better to send him back and get rid of poverty, this is also a kind of love, isn't it? ”

Liu Yi did not answer with a calm face.

Lu Yi next to him nodded.

Mu Qiu sighed, glanced at Liu Yi with a black face beside him, and Mu Qiu said, "Xiao Liu, you still forget about that dumb daughter-in-law, right?" Nothing was done when she called the police, and all she could do was get a beating. ”

Liu Yi's eyes widened, she didn't expect Mu Qiu to know about this.

Mu Qiu smiled. "That dumb daughter-in-law can only find you and Lu Lu, Lu Lu can't hide things, and you can't hide things, when I asked you, the expression on your face was completely trying to cover up."

"Is it so obvious?"

Mu Qiu nodded. "Isn't it? But I didn't say it at the time, but to be precise, we know that she has seen you because the daughter-in-law ran out of our backyard at that time, and not long after she ran out, she was caught by everyone. At that time, I just thought it was better to tell you about it in private......"

Liu Yi frowned. "So what's going on with that mute daughter-in-law? Didn't they poison her? ”

Mu Qiu thought for a moment. "She still chatted with you?"

Liu Yi hummed in a heavy mood. "She wrote it on my hand."

"I don't know the ins and outs of this matter, not to mention that she seems to have just bought it."

"Why didn't you call the police? Isn't human trafficking a crime? Not to mention the seriousness of your situation here. ”

Mu Qiu smiled, as if he was laughing at Liu Yi's innocence.

"You're really stupid and cute, our place is so poor, it's hard to marry a daughter-in-law, so buying and selling daughters-in-law is a very inevitable thing. What's more, even if it's a policeman, he can't control it, think about it, there must be relatives in the town who can't marry their daughters-in-law, right? Then his relatives will inevitably buy and sell, under the choice of filial piety and work, what do you think would you choose if it were you? ”

Liu Yi suddenly didn't know what to say, pursed her lips, and didn't answer.

Mu Qiu smiled and continued: "So what I want to tell you is that if that dumb daughter-in-law asks you for help, you'd better pretend that nothing happened, even if you call the police, and the police come here, there is no way to find her, because the whole village will unite to deal with the police, not to mention that there are people outside to answer you, so ......"

Liu Yi understood what Mu Qiu was talking so much for, thinking of the unkempt mute daughter-in-law, Liu Yi felt that her palms were feverish, and she was a little embarrassed.

"Blame me, I didn't tell you in advance before I came, but I thought that you would definitely not find any clues, but I didn't expect it."

Lu Yi said with a heavy mood next to him: "Actually, I didn't find it, but Brother Mu, you emphasized it too much, so we felt that there must be something strange." ”

Mu Qiu nodded in sudden realization.

"I didn't expect it to be my own exposed horse......"

After talking about the secrets in the village, the atmosphere suddenly became very heavy, and several people did not squeak along the way.

When we arrived at the bottom of the mountain, Liu Yi suddenly looked up and asked, "So when we first appeared on the mountain, everyone's faces were not good because we were strangers?" ”

Mu Qiu nodded. "Well, the people in the village are very xenophobic."

Liu Yi still didn't understand. "What if those bought daughters-in-law have been disobedient?"

"How can you be disobedient, everyone has the means. For so many years, it has always been like this in the village, and to tell you the truth, my mother actually bought it at the beginning, but because she was very obedient, she didn't use any special means. ”

Lu Yi was instantly attracted by Mu Qiu's words.

"Then you haven't been looking for your grandparents and them?"

Mu Qiu shook his head.

"It's been so many years, I've found it, but it's difficult, looking for a needle in a haystack, it's hard to climb to the sky."

Liu Yi can understand very well, after all, communication and transportation in this era are not developed at all, so if there is one less person, it will be very troublesome to check, and it will be quite difficult to find out.

The group came to the town with their own hearts and got into the car.

Mu Qiu didn't know if Liu Yi listened to him or not, but he wasn't ready to care.

If Liu Yi felt that only by calling the police could her heart be comforted, he was not prepared to stop her.

After all, over the years, the police have come more than once or twice, and they have always returned empty-handed.

After hearing so much, Liu Yi's head is now a mess. She didn't know whether she should call the police or not, listening to Mu Qiu's meaning, even if she called the police, it would be useless, but if she didn't go, she felt uneasy about her conscience.

Lu Yi felt that these things were none of her business, not to mention, according to Mu Qiu, this was equivalent to collusion between the government and the people, and there was no need to find justice at all, and maybe the mute daughter-in-law would be beaten up because of their police.

Every place has its own rules of survival, and if you are not a savior, you don't need to care too much about human suffering.

When the three of them returned to the city, it was almost midnight.

Mu Qiu was very gentlemanly and sent Lu Yi home first, and then sent Liu Yi to the compound.

After tossing and turning all the way, the sky was already dark when I arrived at the compound.

"Brother Mu, go back quickly, just send me here, don't send me, you still don't believe that I can do it alone."

Mu Qiu smiled. "Don't rub shoulders with me, hurry up and go in, I'll leave when I see you go upstairs."

Liu Yi wanted to say something more, but seeing Mu Qiu's yawning appearance, he didn't want to delay his time, nodded and turned away with a smile.

When Liu Yi's figure disappeared from sight, Mu Qiu sighed, and then turned to leave.

To be honest, until now he didn't know if it was the right decision to take Liu Yi back to his hometown.

Liu Yi returned to the door, raised her hand, and was about to knock on the door, but the door suddenly opened a crack from the inside out.

Liu Yi took a closer look and found that Xu Weimin was wearing a suit of shorts and standing at the door bare.

Liu Yi opened his mouth, and before he could say hello, Xu Weimin reached out and pulled Liu Yi in.

With an exclamation, Liu Yi frowned.

"What's wrong?"

Xu Weimin narrowed his eyes. "Only now?"

Liu Yi nodded and yawned.

"Isn't it?" After a pause, Liu Yi hurriedly put down the bag in his hand. "I've got to go wash up and get some sleep, and you'll make your own breakfast this morning."

With that, Liu Yi raised her feet and walked towards the bathroom.
