Mu Yan was still fine, and Mu Li Mukan was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
"This Wu family is really evil-hearted. She wants to drive everyone away and kill them all!"
Mu Yan curled his lips coldly: "With a hereditary title, who can let go of such a huge benefit? How can she sleep without eradicating the roots?"
Just like the people on his father's bed wishing him to die.
If you block other people's way, you become a thorn in their side. You must get rid of it quickly. How can you let it go?
"Master, should we remind the Zhang family kid?"
Mu Yan glanced at them lightly: "Her surname is Huo now."
"Yes. Then should we remind Miss Huo?"
"Remind her why? What can she do besides worry?"
"What about watching?"
Mu Yan was silent and knocked on the desk: "Go and check where the Huo couple are originally from and see if her siblings are registered. If not, remind her."
"What if it falls?"
"It must have happened recently. You go and change the registration date in the Yamen. Help clean up."
"yes."
After the two left, Mu Yan sat in a daze.
He didn't know why he wanted to help her. Two people who had nothing to do with each other.
Maybe it's a matter of kind.
She, like him, lived such a difficult life. The more others refused to let them live, the more unwilling he was and the more he wanted to live. He also wanted her to live.
Huo Xi hasn't been to the city for several days.
I was busy working on the floating grocery store at home. First, I installed a row of shelves in the three cabins and filled them with goods. Then I went to Qianjin Village to bring back the store.
On the linen with a green background, there is a circle of water patterns embroidered on it. On the upper right is "Huo Ji" and next to it is "Floating Grocery Store". The seven characters are all made of black embroidery thread, which is beautiful and conspicuous.
It is four feet long and more than one foot wide. A noose is made on the right side, which can be worn with bamboo poles and tied to the bow of the boat. If you see it from a distance, you will know what the Huo family's boat is for.
There is no need for Yang Fu to shout at the top of his voice.
After shouting back and forth for several days, no matter how illiterate they were in this area of water, they all knew that there was a Huo family boat, which was a floating utility store. The goods in it were cheap and sufficient, saving them the time of going to the city.
After being busy for a few days, Huo Xi thought about going to the city when she saw that the grocery store at home was on track and she could earn twenty or three dollars a day. She also got about twenty cans of anti-bald butter at home.
She was going to look for Huo Zhong and see if there was anything good that could be picked up at the outer city dock.
Early the next morning, Yang Fu and Huo Erhuai went to the fish market in the outer city to sell fish.
After selling the fish, Huo Erhuai returned to the ferry, while Huo Xi and Yang Fu went to the outer city dock carrying Bald Butter on their backs.
And Mu Limukan sneaked into the Jiangning County government office, dug out the Huo family's pornographic book, secretly changed the recording time of Huo Xi and Huo Nian, changed Huo Xi's age by one year, and helped her clean up
.
After that, he kept looking for her in the outer city, planning to secretly reveal some news to her.
That day, they finally saw her enter the fish market street. They saw her looking like a fisherman, skillfully soliciting customers, selling fish, weighing, and collecting money. Both of them were stunned.
Huo Xi and Yang Fu didn't come back to their senses until they left the fish market street.
This is really...
His ability to adapt is really good. If one day the young master is reduced to a poor fisherman's family, I wonder if he can be so indifferent, standing in front of the fish stall, hawking, catching fish and selling them.
No, no, no, how could the young master have such a day?
The two of them quickly got rid of the image in their minds of their little master dressed as a fisherman boy.
When Huo Xi and the two were not paying attention, he quietly followed them, not far or near, chatting quietly in a voice that they could hear.
"Tell me, do the people in this city have enough to eat and nothing to do? Why are they going around checking for six-year-old girls and four-month-old babies? Are they in need of children to support?" This was Mu Li.
"You are overthinking. Just take it home and raise it as an innocent baby. Why would you want a six-year-old girl to be a child bride? But, do you think it will be a sacrifice to the river god?" This is Mukan.
"Isn't it? Things are going well now, and the new emperor is also wise and powerful. Is there such a thing?"
"Then who knows."
Yang Fu felt fresh after hearing this. He had heard of offering sacrifices to the River God before. However, there were many waterways in the south of the Yangtze River, and the weather was smooth. There was no shortage of water. He had never heard of offering sacrifices to the River God, and it was all a matter of the previous dynasty.
.
Yang Fu listened intently with his ears raised, but Huo Xi could tell he was sweating.
Looking for a six-year-old girl and a four-month-old baby boy, isn't this her and Nian'er?
Who is looking for them? My mother is gone, my grandfather's family has been exiled, and she and Nian'er have announced their death to the outside world. Who will look for them?
The Wu family must be the Wu family!
Only Wu, who knew the truth, refused to let them go.
Her grandmother Wang wanted them dead, but she probably wouldn't kill them all. Even if she knew that she and Nian'er were not dead, she would just stand by and let them fend for themselves, and she wouldn't recognize them if they went back.
Only Wu wanted to eradicate the root cause.
Huo Xi's whole body was shaken.
She thought the matter was over, but she didn't expect that Wu still refused to let her two siblings go.
Huo Xi clenched her fists tightly, gritted her teeth tightly, and her eyes were full of hatred that could destroy the whole world.
"Xi'er, what's wrong with you?" Yang Fu saw her strange behavior and was so frightened that he quickly pulled her over and asked.
Mu Limukan looked at her quietly, knowing that she had heard him, he sighed and walked away.
When Huo Xi tried to see who was talking just now, she wanted to inquire quietly, but the person was gone.
"Xi'er, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay. Let's not go into the inner city now. Let's go to the dock in the outer city. After selling the Bald Butter, we will help dad fish. Dad doesn't do much fishing these days."
Yang Fu was stunned and didn't understand why Xi'er wanted to fish again.
Suddenly he remembered what the two people were saying just now. He had only heard the excitement a moment ago. When he heard about offering sacrifices to the river god, he was entranced. Now he thought about it, a six-year-old girl and a four-month-old baby boy.
, doesn’t it fit the characteristics of Huo Xi and Huo Nian?
Scared to the point of sweating.
He looked around hurriedly, pulled her to a sheltered place, and whispered: "Xi'er, are your evil relatives still thinking of selling you? Are they still looking for you?"
Huo Xi bit her lip and glanced at him, then said half-seriously: "Nian'er and I can be sold for a lot of money. They are short of money, so maybe they are still looking for us."
Yang Fu was shocked: "Damn it. How can there be such bad people! Then we don't want to go into the inner city. No, we don't want to come to the outer city either. We will stay on the boat and wait for you to grow up."
, they won’t be able to recognize me. It will be fine if my sister and brother-in-law go to the city instead."
Huo Xi nodded: "We won't enter the inner city for the time being. Be careful when entering the outer city. Let's avoid it during this period."
Yang Fu nodded.
Huo Xi warned him again: "Don't tell your parents about this. Firstly, you are afraid that they will worry, and secondly, you are afraid that your parents will spill the beans."
Yang Fu nodded repeatedly and patted his chest: "Don't worry, Xi'er. I won't tell anyone. I keep my mouth shut. I won't say it even in my dreams."
"Well. Let's go find Manager Huo."
"Okay." Yang Fuying held her tightly and walked towards the outer city dock.
