Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Man Is Back
After arriving at the barracks, Qin Yue went to see her stepmother first. I hadn't seen this righteous girl for a few days, and the young lady was very happy.
I heard that Qin Yue came to the barracks to have something important, so I wanted to talk about myself, but I didn't delay Qin Yue.
When he went to his father-in-law, Qin Yue said what he meant. Li Rugang took out the two internal reports he had just received and let Qin Yue look at them.
One is a war report from the garrison of the nearby state capital, saying that after many investigations, they found a nest of a rebel group near Zhashui. Immediately mobilized troops, encircled and annihilated, and after fierce battles, destroyed the base camp of the anti-thieves, and eliminated a large number of anti-thieves.
Qin Yue was happy when she saw it, saying that they didn't even see a single figure, and they weren't afraid of committing the crime of bullying the king?
Li Rugang asked what was going on? Qin Yue said what she had seen with her own eyes.
Li Rugang laughed and said that this was an officialdom convention. An official-based society, an official's fate is in the hands of the top, and an officialdom that looks at the face of the above and acts. Level 1 deceives level 1, it's all like this, there's no fuss.
Qin Yue remembered that time when her father-in-law was in Changjiazhuang, so she didn't comment more.
The other is Ying Tianfu's war report, saying that it was a major riot that smashed the rebel group. It is also what kind of battles have been experienced, how many anti-thieves have been eliminated, and how many great results have been achieved.
Although the credibility of the results was not high, Qin Yue remembered the strategic deployment of the big boss when he was in the lair of the mysterious organization. First take their birthplace Yingtianfu, and then divide Jiangnan. It seems that at least these people did not achieve this first goal.
Qin Yue asked her father-in-law if there was any news of this mysterious organization recently?
Li Rugang said that there was no news for the time being, and as soon as there was news, he would send someone to inform Qin Yue.
Li Rugang was also very concerned about Zhao Tianhong's safety, saying that if this mysterious organization did not let go of a child, it would be indignant.
Qin Yue didn't tell her father-in-law about Xiao Tianhong's true identity, because after all, his father-in-law was a member of the government, and it might be better to not know some things than to know.
However, Qin Yue thought of one thing. If Xiao Tianhong's matter was indeed the work of the mysterious organization, it means that all the agreements they reached with themselves have been nullified, and the safety of his father-in-law and mother-in-law is no longer guaranteed.
Is it to prevent them from organizing assassinations again? Not afraid of 10,000, just in case, it is better to be more careful.
Qin Yue and her stepfather said that they must not let their stepmother out of the barracks recently, and the barracks should also strengthen their precautions during the day.
With so many lessons, Li Rugang is of course obedient to his words as a righteous daughter.
Qin Yue's plan in her heart was to live in the barracks first in the near future. Take a look at the situation, do you ask Brother He and Second Brother Yu to take turns to come over and be on duty again?
But considering that she couldn't make the air too nervous, Qin Yue didn't say it explicitly. I came over in the evening, saying that I would accompany my stepmother for a few days.
Seeing that there were no useful clues in the barracks, Qin Yue was about to leave, but he didn't expect Fang Xiaomin to come quickly.
Seeing Qin Yue, Fang Xiaomin's face was full of joy, it turned out that early this morning, Zhao Tianhong was sent back.
The one who took Zhao Tianhong away yesterday was indeed the couple who adopted Zhao Tianhong in the end, and they were the ones who sent Zhao Tianhong back; It seems to be a false alarm.
"But why didn't they say hello when they left?" Qin Yue asked Fang Xiaomin.
"Where do I know, when I saw Tianhong, I wanted to reassure you, so I came right away. Fang Xiaomin argued.
"Are the couple still there?" Qin Yue asked.
"I'm still here, I said I wanted to see you," Fang Xiaomin replied.
"Okay, let's go back to the martial arts hall now, I want to meet them too. ”
After speaking, Qin Yue said goodbye to her father-in-law and mother-in-law, and together with Fang Xiaomin, hurried back to the martial arts hall.
Back in the martial arts hall, the people were indeed in Qin Yue's house, Zhao Tianhong was also there, and Li Ruyu was accompanying them.
Zhao Tianhong should already know the consequences of his failure to say goodbye. I regret it and feel very uncomfortable, and I am falling into painful self-blame. As soon as he saw Qin Yue, he came up and wanted to say something.
Qin Yue was also very angry, and she wanted to reprimand Zhao Tianhong fiercely. But seeing Zhao Tianhong's uncomfortable appearance, his heart softened again.
Thinking that this was a child after all, he comforted him and said, "It's okay to come back, it's okay." Tianhong, you leave with Sister Xiaomin for a while. ”
Zhao Tianhong obediently went out with Fang Xiaomin.
When the couple saw Qin Yue coming in, they stood up very politely. Although they didn't know Qin Yue, they had obviously seen that Qin Yue was the person they were waiting for.
Li Ruyu saw that Qin Yue wanted to talk to the two of them alone, so she said hello to Qin Yue, and got up to leave, and Qin Yue did not stop her.
After they all sat down, without waiting for Qin Yue to speak, the man of the couple spoke first: "You are Sister Qin of the cricket, right?"
They also called Zhao Tianhong's original name, Qin Yue was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted.
"Yes, I'm Qin Yue, you are our Tianhong's adoptive parents, and you are also my elders, please don't use honorifics with me. ”
Qin Yue looked at the couple, as the person in charge of the spider plant said, they were about forty years old. Judging from the face, it still feels good, and it should be an honest person. But no matter what, it is unforgivable to take people away without saying hello, Qin Yue has no good impression of them.
"We're crickets, no, it's Tianhong thanks to you, a kind person, to take ,...... in."
It was the woman in the couple who spoke, and she said a lot of words of thanks.
Qin Yue had been listening carefully, waiting for her to finish.
"Actually, the first person who met Tianhong was Fang Xiaomin, Miss Fang. I also happened to meet Tianhong very sensible, and I didn't do anything for him, let alone how hard it was. Qin Yue said lightly.
"No, cricket, no, Tianhong said, the whole family is very good to him, especially his sister bought him a horse. It was still the woman who rushed to say.
"You are Tianhong's adoptive parents, from Tianhong's point of view, we should also be a family, and we will not speak two words as a family. Listen to Xiao Minmei, don't you have something to say to me?"
Qin Yue wanted to hear what they had to say first, and she also wanted to hear their explanations.
"Miss Qin, it's like this, we are husband and wife, we have no children and no daughters for so many years, we have always regarded crickets, no, Tianhong, as our own children. That day, I went out with Tianhong and his mother, and was arrested by a group of people to work as coolies,......"
It was the man from the family who spoke, and he was obviously explaining that they were not leaving Tianhong behind. It turned out that they were forcibly arrested to do hard labor, and many people were arrested together. They were watched by the overseers and worked for almost a year. After being released, they returned to their original home, which had been rented out to someone else by the landlord.
I asked my neighbor about Zhao Tianhong's whereabouts, and the neighbor said that he started begging for food nearby, but then he couldn't see him. They inquired around, and some people said that they had seen Zhao Tianhong begging for food in the county seat.
They went to the county seat to inquire about the begging people, and said that there was indeed a man named Cricket who had begged for food here, but had recently ridden away with a young man and a woman. It seems that he was either found by a loved one, or perhaps he was lucky enough to leave wearing new clothes.
Qin Yue has always been wearing men's clothes, so it is not surprising that she is mistaken for a man.
So they went around to visit the young man and woman, because they had never heard of any relatives of Zhao Tianhong, and they were very worried about Zhao Tianhong.
They were told that the woman had begged for food with a child named Cricket, as if they had done a lot of work, but no one knew where she came from, let alone where the three men had gone on two horses.
However, they have never given up on searching.
Just when they were about to despair, one day, the men of the family saw a group of people on the road, and the children they were looking for everywhere were in this group of people.
He rushed into the crowd desperately, shouting for the crickets to hold the child. But he was immediately pulled away and punched and kicked.
It was not easy for him to find his child, and of course he couldn't give up easily.
He reasoned with these people, but he had no reason with these people at all. What he couldn't bear was that when he heard his own shout, the child not only did not agree, but looked back at him as if he didn't know him.
It's been a while since we've been apart, but we've lived together for so many years?
At this time, a tall and thin man stepped forward, stopped the rough and unreasonable people, and asked him very kindly what was the matter?
He pointed to the children in the group and said they were his own children.
The man inquired about the situation and told him that he had misidentified the wrong person. And he told him that he knew who he was looking for, and that he knew where his children were.
From that person's mouth, he knew that the person who took his child away was Qin Yue. At this time, he suddenly remembered that the cricket, that is, Zhao Tianhong, had told them that there was a twin brother, and looking at the child's appearance, he should have recognized the wrong person.
He asked the tall and thin man: Who is Qin Yue? Where to find Qin Yue? The tall and thin man said that it is very easy to find Qin Yue, and he can find it at the Pen Holder Mountain Martial Arts Hall.
