Gu Chenghuai smiled and left the main room.

Returned to the room where the third room was located.

Lin Zhao was applying things to her face, heard footsteps, and turned her head to look.

"What did Dad and Mom say?"

Gu Chenghuai sat on the stool next to his wife, his deep black eyes landing on her, his eyes filled with a smile, his low voice unhurried: "They agreed, don't worry about Fourth Brother."

Lin Zhao knew her parents-in-law were both proper and careful people, so she was very relieved.

Her brows and eyes spread out, her dark, clear eyes overflowing with smiles, completely setting her heart at ease.

"Dad and Mom were very surprised, right?"

Gu Chenghuai thought of his parents' calm appearance, smiled and shook his head.

"Not surprised, Dad and Mom are very... calm, and don't feel Fourth Brother is trouble. You also know, that Mr. Qiao has grace to Dad, Dad originally took care of the people at the foot of the mountain, now there is one more who needs key care, to him it's nothing."

Lin Zhao noted the favor of her parents-in-law: "It's fine if Dad and Mom don't feel it's trouble."

"Where are Xiang Yubao and Gu Hangbao?" Gu Chenghuai didn't see the twins on the bed and asked casually.

"They wanted to let Little Jin sleep on the bed, I didn't let them, they held hands, hugged their little pillows, and went to find Qingzhou." Thinking of the little brothers arguing for reason, finally failing, and their little faces drooping, Lin Zhao couldn't help but laugh.

Gu Chenghuai didn't care: "Let them be."

It's better that the two stinky boys don't pester Zhaozhao.

Managing four children is very hard, having Qingzhou help bring them along, his wife can save half the worry.

Next door room.

The twins blew a lot of rainbow farts, coaxing their little uncle until the corners of his mouth couldn't fall down for a long time, successfully winning the qualification for Little Jin to sleep on the bed.

The little golden monkey nestled on Xiang Yubao's head, its tail resting on Gu Hangbao's head, the three cubs' sleeping postures were all very obedient.

Gu Qingzhou saw the two people and one monkey occupying his bed, shook his head helplessly, lay down on the side.

He wanted to ask Xiang Yubao and Gu Hangbao about the provincial capital, but seeing them yawning non-stop, he didn't speak again, blew out the kerosene lamp on the table beside him, closed his eyes, and prepared to sleep.

At the same time.

Capital, a certain family building.

Yuan Qin worked overtime and got home. Before she could sit down and rest, Yuan Wang Wang Pozi urged her to cook: "Qin, hurry up and cook, my body is uncomfortable, I lay down for a while this afternoon, and haven't cooked yet. Have to trouble you."

She rarely said nice things.

Yuan Qin hadn't seen her two sons for three days and three nights, and was worried in her heart. She originally planned to just pad her stomach and go out to find the children.

Hearing her mother's words, she immediately threw Meng Jingmo and Meng Guangbai to the back of her mind.

"Mom is uncomfortable? Is it okay?" She said worriedly: "If it's really uncomfortable, I'll take you to the hospital to see."

Yuan Wang Wang Pozi's eyes flickered.

Guessed Yuan Qin had quite a bit of money in her hands.

She just said, even if Meng Jiusi didn't leave money for Yuan Qin, he wouldn't not leave money for the two dog cubs.

Yuan Wang Wang Pozi sighed: "There's no money at home, don't look, wait for death at home. It's fine."

"Mom, don't say angry words." Yuan Qin was a filial daughter, hurriedly interrupting Yuan Wang Wang Pozi's words: "I have money, I'll take you to the hospital tomorrow."

Yuan Wang Wang Pozi was satisfied in her heart, her mean old face revealing a moved expression.

Deliberately declined.

"The money your son-in-law left for you to protect yourself, you keep it yourself. I'm embarrassed to spend it, this is an old illness, the root of the illness left when I gave birth to you, I'm used to it, it's fine, it's fine to take it to the coffin."

Yuan Sister-in-law curled her lips on the side.

These words could only fool the purely stupid sister-in-law, even Jin Bao couldn't be fooled.

Who didn't know the mother-in-law's body was stronger than an ox!

Yuan Qin truly believed it, full of shame.

"Mom, it's all my fault, I'll take you to the hospital to see, maybe it can be cured, you can't keep being sick like this."

She looked at her mother nervously, fearing she would be refused.

Yuan Wang Wang Pozi stared at Yuan Qin for a long time, as if moved by her filial piety, and said with gratification: "That's fine, let's go see, I didn't expect to enjoy my daughter's filial piety. Mom knew, you are the most filial, you are stronger than your brother."

Yuan Qin was fiercely stunned, her heart trembling.

This was the first time.

She heard from Yuan Wang Wang Pozi's mouth that she was stronger than her brother.

"You are my biological mother, I will definitely be filial to you." Yuan Qin was so excited her face turned red: "Mom, you wait, I'll go cook right now."

When she was about to leave, she saw her sister-in-law's figure.

Her face stiffened, and for the first time, she took out the momentum of a big sister-in-law, and said with dissatisfaction: "Sister-in-law, why didn't you cook after you came back, what if Mom is starved!"

"In the future, you come back first, don't forget to cook again, Mom is old and can't be hungry."

After the words fell, she took her apron and went out.

Yuan Sister-in-law:?? I TM...

Yuan Sister-in-law laughed in anger, muttering, cursing the fool, rolled her eyes, and twisted her waist back to the room.

This big sister-in-law is truly hopeless!

Stupid enough to make people want to laugh.

Yuan Wang Wang Pozi was very dissatisfied with Yuan Qin's unnecessary move.

In her view, a daughter-in-law who could give birth to a grandson was much more useful than this daughter who had married out.

Her son and daughter-in-law would support her in the future, what did Yuan Qin count for? Once this house was in her hands, then get the money in Yuan Qin's hands, then marry Yuan Qin out, and she could earn another dowry.

Calculating with an abacus, Yuan Wang Wang Pozi was in a very good mood.

The door was suddenly pushed open.

Yuan Qin appeared at the door, saying timidly: "Mom, after I finish cooking, I'll go find Jingmo and Guangbai? They are so small, I'm afraid something will happen to them."

Yuan Wang Wang Pozi sneered in her heart.

She remembered the words she learned from watching plays... arrogant because of favor?

Wasn't Yuan Qin just being arrogant because of favor.

Just gave her a good face, and she dared to make a request!

"... If you want to find them, go find them, if those two dog cubs want to enter this door, they have to kneel and apologize to Jin Bao." Yuan Wang Wang Pozi deliberately made a difficult problem.

She wished those two dog cubs would die outside.

If they disappeared, this house would naturally become the Yuan family's!

Yuan Qin didn't feel Yuan Wang Wang Pozi was making a difficult problem; in her eyes, her mother was hard-mouthed and soft-hearted.

She smiled: "Ai! I will teach the two children well."

After saying this, she happily went to cook.

The light in the public kitchen was on, and someone was cooking; it was the Meng family's neighbor.

This family had received Meng Jiusi's grace. After Meng Jiusi had an accident, their attitude toward Meng Jingmo and Meng Guangbai didn't change, although they didn't dare to take care of them openly, they secretly stuffed them with pastries.

At this moment, seeing Yuan Qin, while no one was around, the woman asked: "Why haven't I seen Jingmo and Guangbai?"

Yuan Qin was stunned, not expecting the neighbor was still willing to talk to her.

Since her husband had an accident, the neighbors who used to be close were distancing themselves from her.

She was flattered.

"Those two boys are throwing a tantrum, they ran to the old factory building, I'll go find them after I finish cooking."

"...?"

The female neighbor looked at Yuan Qin as if looking at a monster.

Her son hadn't appeared for a long time, and she actually had the heart to cook?!

For the sake of Dr. Meng, the female neighbor tried to persuade her again: "A woman is married, the small family is what should be protected, as for the mother's family... if you have the energy, take care of it, if you don't have the energy, live your own life well, what do you say?"

Yuan Qin smiled and nodded in agreement.

"You're right."

Just when the female neighbor thought she had listened, Yuan Qin said to herself: "A woman is difficult, a lonely orphan and widow is even more difficult, my mother's family moving here is also to help me and Jingmo and Guangbai."

"My mother and the others haven't moved here long, the two children aren't used to it, after a while, they will accept it."

Imagining that the future days would be no different from when her husband was there, she smiled.

"?"

The female neighbor had a string of question marks on her head, her expression speechless and hard to describe.

Looked at Yuan Qin with a complex gaze, finished her meal, and left without saying much.

It's hard to persuade a ghost who wants to die, she tried her best!

Yuan Qin watched the neighbor leave, pursing her lips.

Her husband became a bad element, she was a woman, living with two sons, wasn't it just being bullied, her mother's family moving here, if those people came again, at least they mother and sons would have support.

She wasn't wrong!

After cooking, Yuan Qin didn't have time to eat, and hurriedly went to find her two sons.

Didn't find them in the old factory building.

She thought the children went to buy food, so she waited at the place where she last found Meng Jingmo and Meng Guangbai.

She waited and waited.

Until the moon quietly climbed up, she still didn't see her sons.

Yuan Qin's engagement watch was "borrowed" and was now worn on her sister-in-law's wrist.

She didn't know what time it was now.

She felt panic in her heart.

Left the spot and searched everywhere.

"Jingmo!"

"Guangbai!"

Yuan Qin shouted while searching.

Ran through the old house, didn't even see a wild cat.

She was completely panicked, her face pale as paper.

Ran home in a panic.

"Mom, have Jingmo and Guangbai returned?" Yuan Qin asked as soon as she entered the door.

The Yuan family was stunned.

What does that mean?

Did those two dog cubs die?

Yuan Qin ran full of sweat, didn't wait for the Yuan family to speak, pushed open two bedroom doors, searched room by room, and didn't find her two sons.

She stood blankly in place, like a lost soul, her legs losing strength, sat on the ground, tears streaming down.

"Mom, Jingmo and Guangbai are gone!" Yuan Qin cried desperately, "I didn't find them, they wouldn't... wouldn't have been kidnapped by human traffickers, right?"

The voice was very loud.

The tube building wasn't soundproof, and Yuan Qin's voice reached the left and right neighbors.

People who had received Meng Jiusi's help rushed out of their homes and knocked on the door bang bang bang.

"Comrade Yuan, nothing happened, right?" Someone asked on behalf of others.

Actually, no one wanted to deal with the Yuan family; this was a family of extremes, the old woman wasn't kind, and the one called Jin Bao was bossy, truly not likable.

Thinking of the benevolent Dr. Meng, everyone couldn't bear it, and endured their impatience to come and knock on the door.

Yuan Qin stood up fiercely and ran to open the door.

Looked at the neighbors with red eyes.

Her tone was urgent.

"Have you seen Jingmo and Guangbai?"

The person who spoke thought about it and found that it had indeed been a long time since he saw the two Meng children, his face changed slightly: "Did Jingmo and Guangbai return last night?"

The Yuan family was invisible and didn't show up.

Only Yuan Qin faced the neighbors' questioning.

She felt guilty and ashamed, tears flowing: "... No."

"Jingmo and Guangbai didn't want to go home with me, I left the door open for them for a few nights, and never saw them, they should have slept in the old factory building."

Several neighbors were dumbfounded.

Is this a biological mother?

Damn.

Idiot!

Yuan Qin's words continued.

"I think Jingmo and Guangbai need time to think about it, I didn't dare to go these two days, they didn't want to see me." She was full of grievances, feeling her son didn't understand her, and it showed on her face.

"..." The neighbors were speechless to death.

These words.

What, should we award you a "considerate" little red flower?!

The brain was truly kicked by the production team's donkey!

"I'll go find them tonight, I searched everywhere, and couldn't find them, my Jingmo, my Guangbai." Yuan Qin only knew how to cry, without any attention.

"You're not afraid they'll be hungry." The female neighbor who couldn't bear it was furious.

Yuan Qin's crying stopped, not forgetting to explain: "They have money."

After saying this, she cried wuwuwu again.

The neighbors listened to those wuwuwuwu sounds, their heads almost exploded.

Cry, cry, cry.

Yuan Wang Wang Pozi wasn't dead yet!

Everyone didn't want to deal with Yuan Qin, the man who first asked the question said: "Jingmo and Guangbai are children we watched grow up, we can't let them have an accident. Those who have the heart... follow me to search."

Everyone present had received Dr. Meng's great grace and remembered him, almost all of them moved out.

—To find the Meng brothers.

Some went to find the Meng family.

Some went to the hospital where Meng Jiusi used to work.

Some went to the factory where Yuan Qin worked.

Some went to the state-run restaurant, the movie theater entrance, the state-run store entrance...

All places that could be searched were searched.

Searched until late at night.

No one saw those two familiar figures.

A group of people met at the entrance of the family building and shook their heads.

"Not in the hospital."

"Not in the factory."

"The Meng family said they hadn't seen Jingmo and Guangbai for a long time, and also said... Jingmo and Guangbai had nothing to do with them, don't disturb them in the future."

Those who heard this sighed.

What's wrong with the world!

Relatives who got along well, how did they suddenly turn against each other.

Protecting oneself is not wrong, but, it shouldn't be this heartless.

The last person appeared running, hot and full of sweat. He wiped his forehead, shook the sweat from his palms, and panted heavily.

"Not in the state-run restaurant. Not at the movie theater entrance either, no one at the state-run store."

"My child...!" Yuan Qin cried heartbrokenly, her eyes going black, and she fell to the ground.

"..."

Two women who helped search lifted her up and sent her back to the Meng family.

The men ignored it.

No one likes a sister-worshipper!

Dr. Meng is such a good person, it's a pity to be matched with such a wife!!

All places that should be searched were searched, and there was nowhere else to search.

The people present looked at each other.

The atmosphere was slightly condensed.

"Jingmo and Guangbai wouldn't have gone... to find Dr. Meng, right?" Someone guessed boldly.

"Hiss!" The person beside him gasped, "No way!"

A young man remembered something: "I remember, my grandma seemed to have said, she saw Jingmo and Guangbai leave with a broken cloth bag and a man a few days ago."

"What?" The man who suggested helping search raised his voice.

In just a few seconds, various guesses appeared in his mind.

All were bad.

"Go find your grandma!"

Young man: "My grandma is already asleep."

"Sleep what sleep, handle the business first."

"Oh oh."

A group of people came to the young man's house.

His words were confirmed—

Jingmo and Guangbai did leave with a man.

And.

They were voluntary.

And politely said goodbye to the old man.

"Who do you think that person is? Could it be someone Dr. Meng treated? He knew Jingmo and Guangbai were living a hard life and took them away?"

Everyone present hoped it was like this.

"Sigh, hope so. Let's disperse, go back to our homes, we have to work tomorrow morning."

"Go back, worked all day, tired to death!"

Everyone dispersed.

After returning home, taking each family as a unit, there was another round of guessing, wishing the Meng brothers good luck, and then cursing the Yuan family, scolding Yuan Qin for being unclear, and staying away from people with unclear brains. ===== CHAPTER 154 =====
