Chapter Forty-Seven: Perceiving Something Strange
When he got home, Yanqing was still crying, and his hand was always dragging Song Shu, and he never let go.
Seeing this, Song Shu could only smile helplessly.
"Let him sleep with me today, mother, you rest early, you must not have slept well in this trouble."
Yan was originally worried, but now that Yanqing is back, she is also relieved.
"Then it's hard to work for my mother, call me if there is anything, I'll sleep in the old house today."
Song Shu nodded, looking at Yan Qing in her arms, she was still babbling at this time, and she couldn't help but feel distressed in her heart.
The kid must have been frightened.
That's a mountain bandit, don't say it's a child, even if an adult sees it, they will be afraid to run away.
It is not easy for such a young child to be able to do this.
Thinking of this, Song Shu looked down at Yan Qing.
There were still tears on Qingxiu's face, and people couldn't bear to let go of his hand.
"Don't worry, Auntie has been there, let's sleep obediently."
As if hearing her words, Yan Qing's frowning brows relaxed, and his fingers relaxed a little.
Song Shu pulled out her clothes, looked at Pei Xuan who was standing at the door, and walked over.
"Xianggong, it's all my fault today, if I could watch Yan Qing, I wouldn't have encountered this incident."
"It's none of your business."
Pei Xuan stretched out her hand, and her slightly cool fingers caressed Song Shu's shoulder, feeling the trembling she tried her best to endure, Pei Xuan's heart was also very uneasy.
It's not Song Shu's fault.
After all, there are so many people on the street, it is easy to have accidents, and he has always felt that Yan Qing does not need to worry about himself, but today he found out that Yan Qing is still a child.
Song Shu tried her best to take care of Yanqing, it was not easy, how could everything be counted on Song Shu.
"Today, those people are scheming, the county government has already gone to find the person who abducted and sold the child, and Yanqing has nothing to do, you don't have to blame yourself."
Listening to his gentle words, Song Shu felt even more uncomfortable in her heart.
Big tears fell, she had never experienced anything like this, and God knows, she almost collapsed when she learned that Yan Qing was gone.
"Yan Qing himself can, didn't you see it too?"
Song Shu shook her head, her voice choked: "No, if I moved faster, he wouldn't have gone to the mountain bandits' den, how terrible the mountain bandits are, he is still a child, and he must be very scared in his heart." ”
Pei Xuan pursed her lips, her eyes were a little more gentle, and her voice was unconsciously lowered.
"It's not your fault."
"Nope! It's mine, if I can look at Yan Qing, if I ......"
"But Yanqing is fine now."
Pei Xuan whispered, then sighed again, as if resigned to his fate, and hugged Song Shu in his arms.
The warmth and trembling in his arms made Pei Xuan's heart tremble.
This feeling...... It had never been before, and he couldn't understand why he felt like his heart was beating like this.
It seems that because of Song Shu's sudden appearance, he changed himself.
"Xianggong, I will never be like this in the future, I will be optimistic about Yanqing."
Pei Xuan nodded, sighed, and gently patted Song Shu's shoulder with his hand.
"I believe in you."
Song Shu cried for a while before calming down.
At this moment, she realized that she had been crying in Pei Xuan's arms for so long, and her cheeks turned red when she landed.
"I'm sorry, but I'm out of shape."
Song Shu wiped her tears and turned away a little unnaturally.
"The matter of Yanqing has passed, those mountain bandits, naturally there will be people from the government to trouble them, and such a thing will not happen again."
Song Shu nodded, she took a deep breath, and said, "It's not too early, I'll rest with Yanqing, and Xianggong should go to rest early." ”
Pei Xuan didn't say anything and closed the door before going out.
It was already the middle of the night, but Qin Lai was still standing at the gate, the cold wind was shining, and Qin Lai finally held back his sneezing.
"Your Excellency."
Pei Xuan nodded: "Have you remembered the locations of those mountain bandits?" ”
Qin Lai's expression at this time was more serious than usual, and his face with scars made him feel like he was not allowed to enter.
He lowered his voice and controlled his anger: "It's all memorized. ”
"Take advantage of the late weather to clear those mountain bandits, lest they do anything to him, and besides, have you found all those who abducted and sold children?"
"It has been found that Lai Jiu is responsible for abducting children, and Mrs. Liu is the middleman to contact buyers. And Mrs. Liu also has a relationship with those mountain bandits, and when Mrs. Liu contacts the buyer, she will put the child on the side of the mountain bandits, so that the child will not run away. ”
In this way, a complete chain is already connected.
Whether it is Lai Jiu or Mrs. Liu, or which mountain bandits, they are the most critical among them.
But the identity of Mrs. Liu is not simple.
"My lord, we have arrested this Mrs. Liu, and you want to interrogate you overnight?"
"No, wait until the bandits are all dealt with, send everyone to the government lord, and tell the government what they have done."
"Don't worry, your subordinates will do their best, but I'm afraid that the mountain bandits will ask you to do it yourself."
Pei Xuan naturally knew that those people dared to move Yanqing's idea, so he naturally had to take action in person.
Because of this incident, Song Shu was so sad and blamed herself, these people's sins are unforgivable.
He walked away with a chill and a murderous aura.
--
In the room, Song Shu looked at Yan Qing in her arms, and her heart was very uncomfortable.
For a long time, Song Shu silently told herself that no matter what, she had to protect Yanqing and never let anyone hurt Yanqing again.
In hindsight, Song Shu felt as if she had overlooked something.
When she went to find Lord Fuya today, she seemed to have met Qin Lai, and she heard Qin say what kind of adult?
My lord?
Song Shu thought of something wrong!
At that time, she was talking about Pei Xuan, but Qin Lai called Pei Xuan an adult! She has always felt that there is something wrong between Qin Lai and Pei Xuan, and now it seems that this title is indeed wrong!
Song Shu, Song Shu, are you too slow!
Wait, if Qin Lai calls Pei Xuan an adult, then what is Pei Xuan's identity?
He has no official position, he only goes out occasionally every day, and what happens in this village or town has nothing to do with him.
Even the town has a government official.
Could it be ...... Pei Xuan came out on patrol in micro-service?
No! Weifu went on patrol, how could she marry her, a peasant girl? Pei Xuan's identity must have a hidden secret, which may be beyond his imagination.
"That's it, Pei Xuan doesn't say it, there is no need to ask yourself, living a good life is the most important thing."
"Auntie, Auntie, I'm afraid ......"
Yan Qing in her arms whispered, Song Shu was distressed, patted Yan Qing softly, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, Auntie is here, Auntie is here to save you." ”
The little guy sighed twice, and rubbed it into Song Shu's arms before falling asleep peacefully.
