Chapter 118

Ning Qiu woke up early the next day, planning to visit Wen Xiaoyan's house.

I know her family lives in Dabazi Village, but Ning Qiu has never been there.

Who would have thought that before she left the house, an aunt from a village came to the Ning family and said that someone had called the village committee to find Ning Qiu.

Ning Qiu thought it was Brother Xu, but he didn't expect that it was Mu Ye on the other end of the phone.

"Brother Mu!? How did you know my phone number?"

"Hmph, don't tell me when you leave."

Ning Qiu felt guilty, "Hey, I'm in a hurry to go home, I miss my grandma and grandpa."

There was another 'hum' on the phone. '

Ning Qiu subconsciously rubbed her ears, thinking she had heard wrong.

"Brother Mu, you don't mind."

"Do you mind if it's useful? Haven't you gone home yet?"

Why does this tone sound like a resentful woman, Ning Qiu kept her temper and changed the subject. "The Chinese New Year is coming soon, brother Mu is going to spend it in Luoyang?"

"No, I'm going back to the imperial capital. I wanted to say goodbye to you yesterday, but who knew you'd already left!"

"Uh...hehe, will Brother Mu return to Luoyang after the New Year?"

"Do you want me to come back?"

"Uh..." No matter how she answered, it seemed that it was not appropriate to say anything.

She glanced at her watch secretly and realized that it was almost eight o'clock!

"I, of course I hope Brother Mu will come back, but I still have something to do, so I'll hang up first! We'll be chatting when you come back!!"

Without waiting for the other party to answer, Ning Qiu hung up the phone and rushed home.She has to go back and talk to grandma first, and then rush to Xiaoyan's house.

The root of Mu Ye's teeth itched after being hung up, when will he be hung up?He has always been the only one who hangs up other people's phone calls!
Wait until he comes back to deal with this girl!
After hanging up the phone, he went back to his room and took his luggage. Mu Ye hurried to the train station.

Ning Qiu went home and talked to grandma before rushing to the county, and then from the county to Dabazi village.

It used to be possible to ride an ox cart, but now that the ox cart has been banned, Ning Qiu can only walk.

Dabazi Village is slightly larger than Xiashan Village. There used to be a river nearby, and there was a dam on the river, so the name of the village comes from it.

But the river dried up decades ago and the dam was removed.The riverbed has become the most fertile farmland, but the name of Dabazi Village is still used today.

Ning Qiu was a stranger, so when he entered the village, he naturally attracted the attention of many villagers.

A few idle women couldn't help but stepped forward to inquire, Ning Qiu only said that he had never been to Dabazi Village, but came here to play.

"What's so interesting about this?! When the river was still there, the scenery was really beautiful, but now it's all black mud, and there's nothing to see."

"Oh? Girl, where are you from?" An aunt wearing a blue turban asked.

"I'm from Xiashan Village."

As soon as several people heard the interest, they all gathered around to ask. "Hey, I heard that there is a family named Ning in your village who sells dim sum?"

"Yes, we all go to that wholesaler in the village and sell them in the county."

"Huh? The Wen family is here to work for the Ning family, right?" someone asked.

"You don't know? The eldest daughter-in-law of the Wen family was kicked back yesterday!"

"Come back? They won't let her do it?"

"Isn't it! Originally, that little broken shoe was doing the job, but it ended up being given to her aunt."

Listening to the conversation of several people, Ning Qiu asked. "Who is Little Broken Shoes?"

Several daughters-in-law introduced Ning Qiu with joy. "It's the daughter of the second son of the Wen family, and she was raped at a young age!"

The aunt was also afraid that Ning Qiu would not be able to understand because she was too young, so she added. "It's because of that man...you know!"

"Then why did she leave the work to her uncle?"

"I heard that the son of his uncle's family is going to get married, and he lacks the dowry money. Wen's second child is also a wimp, and if he can't afford the money, he can only put his abacus on the toe of the little broken shoe."

Another aunt said, "Speaking of which, that little broken shoe is quite capable. I heard that she earned the tuition for junior high school last year by herself, working at Ning's family in Xiashan Village!"

"This is not her skill, she met a nobleman!"

"makes sense."

When Ning Qiu got the news he wanted, he grabbed a few handfuls of peanuts and melon seeds bought in the town from his bag and stuffed them to his aunts.

"Aunts, you're welcome, I've brought too much, and it's getting in the way."

"Hey, why are you being so polite, girl!" She said, but her hands were not slow.

"Oh? Aunts, where is the Wen family? It must be very exciting to marry a wife! I want to go and see it too!"

"It's just to the south of the village, the one with a well at the door. But their family hasn't had a wedding yet, it's the end of the year."

Ning Qiu nodded, "Oh... then can I visit your village?"

"If you want to see it, just watch it."

"Okay then, I'll go to the village to have a look." Ning Qiu greeted a few aunts and walked towards the village.

Go all the way to the south of the village and see the well.There are two yards behind the well, one big and one small, one new and one old. You don't need to guess, Wen Xiaoyan's home should be that small yard.

Ning Qiu didn't knock on the courtyard door, but walked around the courtyard.There is a tall tree on the side of the wall.

Ning Qiu took advantage of this tree to climb up the courtyard wall in twos and threes, and looked inside.

From this angle, she could see the courtyard gate and the main room. There was no one in the small courtyard, and there was no movement.

Ning Qiu jumped off the fence, quickly ran to the bottom of the wall, and looked into the house through the window.

Looking around, there is no one in the main room or wing room.

Ning Qiu walked around to the stove from the back, and saw a woman in her 30s sitting in front of the stove, holding a needle and thread in her hand, dozing off bit by bit.

Withdrawing his head, he saw a small window ahead.She bent her waist, lightened her steps, and quickly slipped over.

When I came to the small window, I stood on tiptoe and looked in, my heart skipped a beat when I saw it, the person lying inside was not Wen Xiaoyan! ?
She stretched her neck and looked carefully, and found that Wen Xiaoyan's feet were tied by an iron chain, and at the other end was a huge stone lock, an old long lock, which locked the chain.

Ning Qiu couldn't believe her eyes, it's all in the 90s now, how could there be such parents who locked their own daughter in the firewood room!

Picking up a small stone at his feet, he accurately threw it on Wen Xiaoyan's head.

Wen Xiaoyan on the haystack moved, turned her head to look at the window, and there was light in her black eyes.

Ning Qiu made a silent gesture and asked Wen Xiaoyan to lean against the window.

Wen Xiaoyan nodded like a pounding garlic, trying to move her body.

Ning Qiu lowered her voice and asked her concisely, "Do you still want this family?"

After hearing this, Wen Xiaoyan's heart sank, and tears welled up in her eyes for a long time.

After being silent for a while, he firmly uttered three words.

"Do not want!"

"Okay! Remember what you said now!"

Seeing that Ning Qiu was about to leave, Wen Xiaoyan asked eagerly. "Where are you going?"

"I'll go to the police and get you out. At that time, you have to figure out what to do. It's up to you to decide whether to leave or stay."

After speaking, Ning Qiu quickly slipped out of the courtyard and went straight to the Fuyuan County Police Station.
