The loss of the child is a big deal, and if you can help, you will naturally have to help.

Chu Xiaoran asked, "Steward Wu, is your son still in Zhuangzi?" ”

"It's here, it's still there, the villain will call Da Lang here."

Soon, Wu Dalang, the son of Steward Wu, came, and when he saw Chu Xiaoran, his first reaction was the same as that of Steward Wu, and he was about to kneel down for Chu Xiaoran.

Zhou Ting followed Chu Xiaoran on an errand for a few days, and knew that Chu Xiaoran didn't like others to kneel at every turn, so he directly pulled Wu Dalang to the side: "It's important to find your son, listen to what Miss Xiaoran says first." ”

"When did you lose your son?"

"Yesterday...... Around the beginning of yesterday, he followed my wife out of the house, and she didn't look at her shopping for a while, and the child disappeared. ”

Wu Dalang's wife held her little daughter who was still breastfeeding, searched all around, but did not find the child, and ran home to tell Wu Dalang that the child was missing.

Wu Dalang didn't care that it was getting dark, so he borrowed the ox cart of the master's family, went to the government office of Linxian County overnight to report to the official, and rushed to Zhuangzi a quarter of an hour ago to tell Steward Wu about the loss of the child.

The child has been lost for a day, and it has not been found until now, and it is likely that he was abducted by traffickers.

Qizhou Mansion is now in chaos, and human traffickers had better succeed at this time.

However, because the Jin people captured the Qizhou capital, the nearby prefectures and counties are now extremely careful about the people entering and leaving the city gates, and the traffickers may not have time to transfer the children away.

Thinking of this, Chu Xiaoran asked Yun Xiang to get pen and ink, and then said to Wu Dalang: "Write down your child's birthday to me." ”

"Eight characters?"

"Well, I'll give your child a divination." Wu Dalang showed a happy expression, and immediately wrote down the child's birthday and handed it to Chu Xiaoran.

During the Song Huizong period, the people had great respect for Taoist priests.

Speaking of which, it is because there is a very famous Taoist priest named Lingao in this dynasty, which is valued by the emperor, not only for Lingao to personally give the name Lin Lingsu, but also for this Taoist priest at the expense of manpower, material and financial resources, to build a "Shangqing Treasure Palace".

Since then, the people have followed suit, and built the "Shenxiao Wanshou Palace" in various places, which is called the Song Huizong for eternal life, in fact, those Taoist temples have become the private Taoist temples of the Taoist priest.

Of course, these are the evaluations given by later generations to the Huizong Dynasty, and the people at that time did not know the truth at all, so they felt that the Taoist priests were very awesome.

Generally, divination does not need the eight characters of the birthday, but now it is necessary to calculate the precise direction of the child, whether it is okay or not, it is necessary to combine the eight characters of the child.

Wu Dalang gave the child's eight characters to Chu Xiaoran, and Chu Xiaoran immediately started a hexagram after reading it: "It is the fifty-fourth hexagram in the sixty-four hexagrams, Gen hexagram." ”

Wu Dalang hurriedly asked: "Miss Xiaoran, I don't know what this hexagram is?" ”

Chu Xiaoran drew the hexagram and explained to Wu Dalang and Wu Steward: "You see that this is the position, it is a potential powerful factor for the main house, this is not in place, as the name suggests, it is a factor that is unfavorable to the housing, this hexagram has no corresponding line, it represents all potential factors, and there is no real beneficial or unfavorable factor for the main party." ”

Wu Dalang didn't understand very well, he wanted to know now if his son An was safe, and where he would have to find someone.

"Miss Xiaoran, is he okay?"

Chu Xiaoran looked at Wu Dalang in embarrassment and was anxious, and reacted to what he said, Wu Dalang definitely didn't understand, so he said: "The child is not in danger, you take your relatives and friends to the southeast mountain or a place where there is a temple, you should be able to find it." ”

At the end, Chu Xiaoran added another sentence: "It's best to go with someone from the government, in case it is a gang committing a crime, if the other party is overwhelmed, you will not be able to save the child." ”

Steward Wu and Wu Dalang thanked them for their kindness, wiped their tears and ran out of the yard eagerly.

Chu Xiaoran was worried about the whereabouts of the child, and asked Zhou Ting to follow Wu to help.

Zhou Ting returned to Zhuangzi the next day, and when he came back, he was happy, Chu Xiaoran knew without asking, the child must have been found safely.

"Girl, why don't you ask me if my child has been found."

Chu Xiaoran didn't speak, but Yun Xiang scolded: "I usually see that you are quite clever, how can you ask such a stupid question, if the child is not found, can you still be so happy?" ”

Steward Wu's wife died of illness a few years ago, and there is only one son like Wu Dalang, who is partial to this son who works in the town, and every time Steward Wu is free, he goes to the town to visit them.

But when I go to the town, I come and go for a day, and I can't stay long every time, which is not as long as the time that Zhou Ting and Steward Wu get along.

Zhou Ting has no father again, and the two have been together for so many years, although they are not father and son, but the relationship is very close.

If Steward Wu's grandson hadn't been found, or if there was some damage, Zhou Ting would not have been able to smile and be happy.

Zhou Ting laughed twice: "The person in charge asked me to come back first and tell the girl that he is now in the town with Wu Dalang and his grandson, and he will bring the family over tomorrow morning to thank the girl." ”

Chu Xiaoran didn't mind this, but asked Zhou Ting: "Where did they hide the child?" ”

Zhou Ting's smiling face fell, and he scolded: "Those traffickers are really not human, they hide children in a Taoist temple, they pretend to be Taoist chiefs and pretend to be ghosts there, if it weren't for the official to enter and search, they would have been deceived by them." ”

Zhou Ting's righteous indignation couldn't stop: "When I went in to see, there were more than a dozen children, all of them were little boys, the youngest was only two years old, they couldn't speak clearly, their faces were all blue, and it was really pitiful to look at." ”

"Girl, how can that trafficker pick on the male doll, it can't be a family member who wants to blackmail the child, right?"

Chu Xiaoran is also thinking about this question, if the traffickers want to sell the kidnapped children, the male and female babies can be sold for a lot of money.

The male baby can be sold to people who can't have children, and the female baby is ugly, so she sells it directly to the Qinglou and picks up customers when she grows up.

Then why, the dozen or so children rescued in the Taoist temple are all male babies?

Therefore, in addition to what Yun Xiang said, the reason of wanting to use the child to blackmail the child's family is more reasonable, Chu Xiaoran can't think of other possibilities for the time being.

"It's very likely."

Chu Xiaoran gave a thumbs up to Yun Xiang: "Yun Xiang, I found out that you are the one who is wise and foolish!" ”

Yun Xiang's cheeks were crimson when she was praised by Chu Xiaoran, but she glanced at Zhou Ting.

Chu Xiaoran: "......"

This Yunxiang can't be interesting to Zhou Ting, right?

If Zhou Ting also had this meaning, Chu Xiaoran would be happy to see it, but both of them were too young, Zhou Ting would only be fifteen next month, and Yun Xiang would be one year younger.

In a few years, if the two have the same heart, Chu Xiaoran doesn't mind fulfilling them.

The next day, Steward Wu really took the thank you gift and brought the family to kowtow to Chu Xiaoran to thank him.

"It's good that the child comes back, and this thank you gift will be waived."

"Miss Xiaoran, you have a life-saving grace for the child, and multiple thank-you gifts have made it, but the villain has no assets, so he can only take out so much, and I hope Miss Xiaoran will not refuse."

"Miss Xiaoran, this is the heart of our whole family, please accept it!"

It was Wu Dalang's wife who spoke, the child was lost, and he cried for a day and a night without closing his eyes, the child came back safely, and cried happily all night, and his eyes were swollen like a walnut at the moment, and he could see an eye slit.

Chu Xiaoran no longer refused, gave the box to Yun Xiang and asked her to put it away.
