C162 (2/2)

No matter how she shouted, the carriage showed no signs of stopping.

After chasing for a long time, she ran out of Spring Leaf Lane and passed through the mud path.

He stumbled all the way until the carriage was no longer in sight.

Su Zhi felt as if someone had dug up a piece of her heart. She stood there blankly, letting her tears wet her eyes.

”Rumble!”

Thunder rumbled in the sky, and spring rain, which had not shown up for several days, poured down in torrents.

After being drenched by the rain, Su Zhi walked back dejectedly.

As she was holding up her umbrella to look for someone, she coincidentally bumped into her and fell into the bushes by the side of the road.

”Aiya, Madam, are you alright?”

Su Zhi looked at her in a daze and shook her head mechanically. Her throat seemed to be stuffed with lead, and she was so calm that she could not speak.

”Madam, you're not in a good mood. Why don't you go back and rest?”

”Mother Ding, I forgot to give the little bear to the child.”

Mother Ding could not bear to see her like this. She tried her best to help her up, ”Let's not talk anymore, let's go back to shelter from the rain.”

Su Zhi was sick. It was unknown if it was because of the rain or because she was overly worried. In short, she was sick when she came back.

Mother Ding had never seen her like this. She was so anxious that she invited a doctor to come and have a look. Even after drinking a few doses of medicine, it still didn't work.

She lay in bed for the entire day, staring at the veil most of the time. When she closed her eyes, she would think of her child's laughter and feel so sad that she wanted to cry.

After the small bean bag left, the courtyard lost a lot of laughter and chatter.

A Jin didn't want to go to school, so she squatted in the corner and sulked.

The fat rabbit in the nest was no longer happy. It was lying on the vegetable block. Big Yellow was whining as he searched the house for traces of children, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not find them.

It was pouring rain in Xuan City. A hundred miles away, a group of low-key players were heading back into the fields where the oil plants were blooming.

Seeing that the sun was about to set, Greenwood Horse rode up and asked for permission, ”General, you should stay here for the night. When the first light of the morning arrives, you should head to the Imperial City and arrive there in one day.”

The man riding the horse on the edge of the cliff had a grave and stern expression on his face. Looking at the setting sun from afar, he looked calm and handsome.

”No, the sooner we return, the better.”

”Yes, sir!”

Xiao Qian was reluctant to part with them. After leaving for half a month, he didn't know if the woman and child were good or not. From time to time, the secret guards would send him some news, especially when they found out that someone was looking for trouble with Hua Manlou. This caused him to worry even more.

”General, a scout has sent news.”

Xiao Qian took the letter from Greenwood, but before he could open it, Greenwood said, ”General, your thoughts are not on tracking down the culprit. Instead, you are trying to find out the truth about Lady Su. I'm afraid that you won't be allowed in when we go back.”

Xiao Qian looked at him coldly as he opened the letter. When he saw the contents of the letter, his pupils suddenly constricted.

When Greenwood saw the look of shock on his face, he asked worriedly, ”General, what's wrong?”

”Hurry back, we have to hurry!”

”What happened?”

”Don't ask anymore, go back!”

The group that was resting continued on their way towards the imperial city without stopping.

A day and a night after the small bean bag had left, Su Zhi had been lying on the ground for such a long time.

With the domineering nature of this chilliness, the slightest movement would cause one's head to spin.

After having been in the room for so long, she struggled to get up. Just as she was about to leave, she heard voices coming from outside.

”It's true. Our family's Old Yellow saw it with his own eyes. That child was thrown onto the street and ignored it. He cried pitifully, his eyes swollen like peaches.”

This voice belonged to Uncle Huang's aunt.

Mother Ding couldn't help sighing. ”Don't let Madam hear those words. The child has already been carried away, so we can't stretch out our hands that long. I can only blame the child for being unlucky and for being born into such a family. ”

”Aiyo, who says I am, but children are still pitiful. If they really are left alone, then they might become a beggar.”

Hearing this, Su Zhi could no longer hold it in and walked out of the room, ”Aunt, what did you say just now? What happened to my Soybean Pouch? ”

When the two saw Su Zhi come out, they hurriedly shut their mouths in panic.
