There was no way he could escape. He was just a child and obviously could not defeat an adult.
There was only one way now.
Qian Yirong secretly reached into his pocket and took out a handful of lon seeds. His mother gave them to him as a snack. They ca in handy now.
…
Yan Nuo searched in the vicinity but could not find anyone, so he went further away.
An Jiuyue and Qian Jiyun also returned ho. When An Jiuyue heard from Qian Yiyun that Qian Yirong had disappeared, she was shocked.
She was no longer anxious. Her face was completely pale.
“You…”
She wanted to ask Qian Yiyun why she played hide-and-seek with the two children.
Does she not know that there are a lot of people in the mountains now? We often bump into groups of people gathering wild vegetables. The issue with Old An’s family just ended. How can Qian Yiyun…
However, she could not bring herself to reprimand her.
In the end, she could only snap bitterly, “I shouldn’t have gone to the forest!”
She turned around and left without looking at the siblings.
She raised these two children and understood their personalities very well. They would not hide if there was nothing wrong.
Unless…
She thought of Old An and his family. She wondered how they were doing. Could they have captured Rong’er?
With that in mind, she strode down the mountain.
“Big Brother, she…”
Qian Yiyun was also panicking. Although An Jiuyue did not bla her, she understood what she ant.
Is my sister-in-law blaming for not taking good care of Rong’er?
“Stay here.”
Qian Jiyun was in no mood to comfort his sister. They had not found the child yet.
Although Yan Nuo had gone to look for him, he would have returned long ago if he had found him. Since Yan Nuo did not return yet, he was even more worried that Rong’er had been kidnapped.
Qian Yiyun felt frustrated as she watched her brother leave.
The two boys were obediently playing with An Yilu in the treehouse. She felt they were too restricted and suggested they play hide-and-seek nearby.
She would not have suggested it if she had known. It was good to stay at ho.
“It’s all my fault.” She stomped her feet before heading upstairs.
Before An Jiuyue even arrived at the village, she was greeted by Aunt Ju, who was in a hurry.
“Jiuyue, are you descending the mountain?” Aunt Ju stopped and asked her.
Without exchanging greetings, An Jiuyue asked directly, “Aunt Ju, where is Old An’s family?”
“That family?”
The disdain in Aunt Ju’s eyes was obvious when she ntioned them.
“Old An and his wife refused to listen to us and went to town. Their daughter-in-law ran away, and we chased their two sons out of the village to live in a straw shed. What’s wrong? Did they cause trouble for you again?”
That’s not possible, right? They can’t do anything now, right?
Upon hearing that, An Jiuyue knew it was not Old An and his family.
But who can it be? Is it Ministry Councilor He upset that I subdued him? Impossible. He bullies the weak and fears the strong. He won’t even fart in front of soone stronger than him.
She looked at Aunt Ju and asked, “Aunt Ju, are you here for ?”
“Oh, right.”
Aunt Ju finally rembered why she was looking for An Jiuyue.
