The Patriarch of Cultivation of Immortals was at 80

Chapter 67
Qiao Jiarong looked around, and only saw a very old man, who was not much different in age from her grandfather.But I didn't see an old lady who was about the same age as him. Did she go out or live here?

Or... Qiao Jiarong behind didn't dare to think about it.

After a while, all the young people in the courtyard went out.Those who go to work go to work, and those who go to school go to school. Only the old man and a young woman are left with a child who is a few months old.

And the old man walked out of the courtyard with his hands behind his back shortly after his family left.Qiao Jiarong also followed.

Following the old man from the Guan family, Qiao Jiarong saw him come to an alley.The house here is not as good as that of the Guan family. There are many people and noisy, but there is a little more fireworks.

I saw the old man walk into the alley and came under a big locust tree.

Because it was winter, there was not a single leaf on the big locust tree.There is only a bare tree trunk left, and occasionally a few birds fly to the tree to look for food.

A simple small table was placed under the tree, and on both sides of the table were two old men sitting there playing chess.The old man who came out of Guan's house came to the small table, and the people around him watched together.

Qiao Jiarong didn't hear them speak until the game of chess was over.

In fact, it can't be called talking, it should be called quarreling.The content of the dispute was naturally the situation of the chess game just now. Qiao Jiarong didn't know how to play chess, so naturally he couldn't understand what they were talking about.

After listening for a while, I felt bored, and was about to go to the side to rest for a while.

Unexpectedly, when she turned around, those arguing people in front suddenly became excited.Later, I don't know who pushed it first. When Qiao Jiarong turned around, he saw several people slipped and fell.

Among them was the old man that Qiao Jiarong paid attention to. Seeing him fall, Qiao Jiarong ran to help him as soon as he was anxious.

Fortunately, everyone was fine and there were no fractures.

Qiao Jiarong didn't remember what he was doing until he helped the old man up from the ground.But it was too late to leave at this time, after all, among a group of old men.Suddenly a child came, still very eye-catching.

Seeing everyone turned their heads to look at her, Qiao Jiarong pretended to be an ordinary child and greeted the people around him, "Hi, grandpas!"

"Hello! Little girl, why did you run out in such a cold day? Where is your adult?" An old man standing next to them asked.

·····
Qiao Jiarong let go of the old man's hand, lowered his head and said nothing.Both hands kept rolling the corner of the clothes, looking a little pitiful.

Guan Yu, who was helped up by her, thought she was frightened when he saw her like this, and quickly said to the people beside him, "The child probably got separated from her family, let's send her to the police station and see if we can help her." Find her family?"

Hearing that he was going to be sent to the police station, how could Qiao Jiarong agree.

Besides, even sending her to the police station was useless, they couldn't find her family either.Besides, she came to the capital to recognize her relatives, how could she recognize her relatives when she went to the police station?

So, Qiao Jiarong pretended to be frightened, and hid behind Guan Yu while crying.

Seeing her like this, Guan Yu quickly comforted her and said, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid! If you have anything to say to Grandpa Guan, Grandpa Guan will help you decide."

Qiao Jiarong still didn't speak, but she shook her head to the people around her not to go home.

This time, Guan Yu understood.It may be that the child's family has treated her badly, so the child does not want to go home.

Look at the child again, it's such a cold day.She was only wearing a few unlined clothes, and her little hands were as cold as ice.The adults in this family are too useless, and they don't know how to make a cotton coat for their children.

At this moment, Guan Yu never thought that Qiao Jiarong was wearing so little clothes.My hands are so red from the cold, but why don't I have chilblains?
All he wanted to do now was to pack Qiao Jiarong's grievances. How kind-hearted this kid is!Seeing that this strange old man fell down, he knew to come over and help him up.

Although, he can get up by himself.But this does not affect Guan Yu's liking for Qiao Jiarong.

I don't know what happened, but Guan Yu felt that he hit it off with this child.From the first moment he saw her, he couldn't express his love for her.

Later, when I heard that the child's family was treating her badly, an unknown fire rose from the bottom of my heart.I can't wait to drag out all the people who treat her badly and beat her up, so that I can relieve my anger.

Seeing that Qiao Jiarong didn't want to go back, Guan Yu took her hand and said, "If you don't want to go back, don't go back. I'll go home with Grandpa Guan later."

"Old Guan, let's send the child to the police station! What's the matter with you taking the child home? Besides, would your son and daughter-in-law be willing?" said an old man who had a good relationship with Guan Yu.

After hearing what he said, Guan Yu said indifferently, "I have the final say on family affairs. Besides, the child is so pitiful, what if I take it home for a few days? I don't want them to raise the child."

The others were still worried, looking at the child's clothes.

Presumably, the conditions at home are not bad, so the child must not have been thrown away on purpose.Maybe there is some misunderstanding in this, it is better to send the child to the police station and wait for her family to come over.

If her family treats her really badly, they will find a way to help the child get out of that family.

After hearing this, everyone felt that this idea was good, and they all persuaded Guan Yu to send Qiao Jiarong to the police station.After all, there has been a lot of buzz these days, all about human traffickers.

If Laoguan is regarded as a human trafficker, it will be a disaster.

Guan Yu actually thought about this too, so he didn't drag Qiao Jiarong home directly.After much deliberation, Guan Yu decided to listen to his old friends.Send the person to the police station first, and if no one picks up, he will take the person home.

Big deal, it's time to go through the adoption procedures.

Anyway, he won't ignore the child.I don't know what this kid's name is?They discussed it here for a long time, but the child didn't say a word.

Next, Guan Yu took Qiao Jiarong to the police station in the east of the city.He told the story of how he picked up the child, and there were witnesses around him to prove it.

After the policemen at the police station took notes, they began to check Qiao Jiarong's information.

But they searched all the files of girls aged 5-10 in the whole capital, and found no missing persons similar to Qiao Jiarong.

Isn't this kid from the capital?How can this be good?

It must be difficult for them to check by themselves, so they decided to start with Qiao Jiarong.

They went to their seats to get some snacks and coaxed Qiao Jiarong to talk.They wanted to learn some information from Qiao Jiarong's words, maybe they could find out where she was from.

But Qiao Jiarong didn't want to be sent back right now, so he kept holding on to Guan Yu's clothes and didn't speak.

Seeing that she didn't speak, everyone guessed whether she was dumb?Otherwise, why have you kept silent!
In the end, there was nothing the police could do.I can only let Guan Yu take her back first, after all, the child trusts her.In this way, Qiao Jiarong followed Guan Yu back to Guan's house.

When they arrived at Guan's house, Guan Yu asked the nanny to cook some food and warm up Qiao Jiarong's body first.
