Wei Shiqi was silent for a moment, and then Uncle Wei came in from the side. Hearing this, he clapped his hands and told Wei Shiqi: "Shiqi, take Shujie to the village entrance to find Uncle Mo. Uncle Mo has a carriage."
"Isn't Uncle Mo's carriage never lent out?" Wei Shiqi muttered, and then said seriously, "Okay, I'll take Shujie to ask Uncle Mo for help."
After meeting him, Wei Jingshu knew that Uncle Mo was the fishing uncle at the entrance of the village.
He was different from other people in Yuan Village. He moved to Yuan Village more than ten years ago and fished at the entrance of the village every day. Over time, he became familiar with everyone. He was kind and generous. He would help the villagers when they were in trouble, but he was particularly serious about his own things and would not lend them out easily.
"Uncle, can I borrow your carriage?" Wei Jingshu squatted next to Uncle Mo and told the reason.
Wei Shiqi also stared at Grandpa Mo nervously and explained, "Grandpa Mo, what Shujie said is true, and she has no intention of deceiving."
"You kid, is your grandpa such an unreasonable person?" Grandpa Mo glared at Wei Shiqi, immediately threw down the fishing rod in his hand, and led the two to his home. Grandpa
Mo's house was not far from the village entrance, standing by the mountain. There was a horse farm on the back mountain of his house, where many horses were raised. In addition to fishing, he usually raised horses.
He specially selected two batches of good horses from there, carefully put the carriage on the horses, and padded the carriage with a thick layer of fur.
After thinking for a while, he gave Wei Jingshu another jade pendant and told her, "If the gate is closed later, you can use this to leave the county."
Then he turned to Wei Shiqi and said, "Take good care of Shujie'er. If anything happens, I will only ask you."
Wei Shiqi looked at Mr. Mo, who was serious, and then looked at Wei Jingshu, who was staring at the horse carefully. He was a little confused. He
had never heard that Mr. Mo was so good to Shujie'er before. He went to the school to study for a few days. Did he read it wrong?
While thinking, Wei Jingshu jumped onto the carriage board under the guidance of Mr. Mo. She turned around and shouted to Wei Shiqi: "Get on." Wei Shiqi
hurriedly climbed onto the carriage. When he was still worried about whether Wei Jingshu could drive the carriage away, he heard a voice of "Go!"
As the whip fell, the horse turned quickly in the carriage. Wei Shiqi was not careful and fell backwards hard, hitting the back of his head on the wall of the carriage. He cried out, and the carriage turned sharply again, and he was hit to the side again.
In just a moment, Wei Shiqi's stomach was churning. In the past, he saw people cooking wine and tea in the carriage, but he didn't show it on his face, but he also wanted to have such a day. Now he just feels that walking on a pair of feet is really the most beautiful thing in the world.
Fortunately, the carriage only stumbled for a while before it calmed down.
At this time, Wei Shiqi's face was already pale, and he breathed a sigh of relief. Suddenly, he heard Wei Jingshu outside ask: "Brother Shiqi, sit tight, I'm going to speed up."
Wei Shiqi's heart skipped a beat, and the carriage accelerated suddenly. Before he could hold on, he was thrown back again and hit the wall of the carriage. After
scoring twice, Wei Shiqi's eyes were already filled with physiological tears. The only consolation was that there would be no more stumbling in the future.
With the help of Wei Jingshu, the long journey time was shortened by half.
Fortunately, the two of them entered the county before closing time.
As soon as he got off the carriage, Wei Shiqi rushed to the side of the road and vomited and had diarrhea.
Wei Jingshu didn't care about him, and looked around awkwardly, with a little confusion in her eyes.
Why is this car so uncomfortable?
After a bumpy ride, Wei Jingshu was a little shaky when she walked. When Wei Shiqi finished vomiting, she handed him a tube of nutrient solution: "Let's go find Mr. Zhang."
The carriage was watched by people who were looking for work on the roadside. One of them was pale and his steps were weak, and the other was staggering, just like an old man who had regained his youth and led his grandson who had just learned to walk.
This strange combination made passers-by look back frequently.
Mr. Zhang's home was on Changli Street, which was nicknamed "Rich People's Street" in the county. It was just two houses away. There
were two stone lions at the door wearing bright red flowers, and there were candle ashes on the ground that had not been swept away. On the copper lock on the door, there was also a red flower like the one on the neck of the stone lion, showing joy in solemnity.
"There hasn't been any happy event in Mr. Zhang's family recently." Wei Shiqi's face was solemn, "I think they value their children very much. I guess this trip won't be easy."
Wei Jingshu looked at Wei Shiqi strangely, not understanding why such a simple thing would be difficult in his eyes.
It's a matter of appealing to the emotions and reasoning. If the other party doesn't respond, just take Le'er back. After all, buying and selling a child is not a glorious thing. Can this family insult her, beat her or kill her openly?
After thinking about it, Wei Jingshu frowned again, but she didn't feel sad.
But it doesn't matter. She doesn't care if she is scolded. If she fights, no one can beat her! She
walked forward confidently and knocked on the vermilion door.
Not long after, the gatekeeper opened the door. Seeing that it was a stranger, he thought he was here to congratulate his master.
After all, Mr. Zhang had a good reputation. Now that he had a child, there were many people who came to congratulate him.
"Miss, the mistress has gone to bed with the child, come and congratulate her tomorrow."
He took out a red envelope from his pocket and stuffed it into Wei Jingshu's hand: "This is a little gift from my master, please accept it and go back."
Wei Jingshu pushed the red envelope back and said calmly: "I'm here to get the child back." The servant
was stunned for a moment, then said: "Miss, you can't talk nonsense like that. The child's grandmother said that the child lost his parents when he was born and has no one to rely on, so my master decided to adopt him."
"The child is my nephew. My sister-in-law is still alive. The child's grandmother is my grandfather's second wife. She doesn't like our family, so she stole the child when my sister-in-law wasn't paying attention. I know that Mr. Zhang is a reasonable person and will definitely not do human trafficking, which is against the law of nature. Now I come here with no intention of blaming him, I just want the child back."
Wei Jingshu spoke clearly and her face was calm. In addition, Wei Shiqi next to her also revealed her identity to help explain, "I am Wei Shiqi, a student from Qishan Academy. I can testify that everything she said is true. Please inform Mr. Zhang."
The matter was of great importance, and the servant did not dare to delay. "Please wait a moment, I'll go and inform him." As soon as
the servant left, Wei Shiqi breathed a sigh of relief: "I thought you would rush in directly."
"I can still tell the difference between wanting a child and snatching a child." Wei Jingshu muttered, turned her head and stared at Zhang's house intently.
Wei Shiqi was worried: "Sister Shu, what should we do if Mr. Zhang doesn't give us the child?"
After asking, he muttered: "It's okay, at worst we can report to the police. The county magistrate is honest and will definitely help us."
"Report to the police?"
In the interstellar world, although there are troops, there are no officials. The first time Wei Jingshu heard this word, she was confused again.
What is this? Can reporting to the police get the child back?
