Looking at County Magistrate Fang and Chief Liang, their brows were frowning more and more.
After bringing the people there, Meng Qing handed over the matter to them. After all, they were the ones in charge. She walked towards Ji Xi's position. It seemed that she had found Juhua and Goudan.
As soon as he walked over, he saw Ji Xi lifting Goudan up from the ground and said anxiously: "Sister Meng, Goudan seems to have a fever."
"Then take it to the doctor quickly. You know where there is a doctor around here?" Meng Qing also realized that they had brought Magistrate Fang and others to arrest people in a hurry and forgot to bring the doctor with them, so they were not well prepared.
"But." Ji Xi looked at Dai Hua, who was holding her clothes tightly beside him, and felt a little hesitant.
"What are you afraid of? Just go, I am here, and Xiaofeng and Xiaoyun are both outside."
Meng Qing held Daihua in her arms and pushed Dahua to tell her not to waste any more time.
"Sister Xiaoqing, Juhua is so scared." After being hugged by Meng Qing, Juhua threw herself into her arms. Perhaps because she felt that she had support, Juhua, who had always been strong, burst into tears.
Meng Qing looked at the child who had never cried since she came here, now howling in her arms, and felt particularly uncomfortable.
It was also because she was not considerate enough that she allowed several children who were only six or seven years old to stay at home. Moreover, their behavior of buying food in the past three days was never covered up, and she did not know how many caring people caught the eye.
How is this different from a child walking around in a busy city holding a gold brick?
Meng Qing had never been sober for a moment. This easy success made her forget that this was not a modern world with a sound legal system and cameras everywhere, but an agricultural feudal dynasty with backward productivity, and it was an ancient society that had just experienced a famine in the north.
.
It was her arrogance and contempt that made her despise this era. This incident completely shattered her complacency and condescension.
She began to face up to this strange era and the social reality in its background.
This was the beginning of her complete integration into this era and society.
After finding the person he was looking for, Meng Qing withdrew with his men and handed the place over to the government.
One day later, Meng Qing met with Chief Liang to learn about the subsequent development.
Chief Secretary Liang, or the entire county government, was very busy because of this incident.
"Mrs. Meng, you're here. It's really thanks to you this time." When Chief Liang said this, he looked sighing and happy.
"How do you say this?" Meng Qing's curiosity was piqued.
Chief Liang's conversation got aroused, and he pulled Meng Qing and said, "You don't know, those people are really nothing. They not only abducted children, but also abducted women. We searched the house from top to bottom. Originally,
I thought it was just those children, but I didn't expect that there was a cellar inside, hiding dozens of women. The scene was so miserable.
Every one of them was naked and looked like no one. Seeing so many of us, he was so frightened that he trembled all over. You know we were all men who followed us. There was nothing we could do. Mr. Fang urgently asked the nearby aunt for help.
, bought some clean clothes, then brought the people out and asked the ladies to wash them one by one."
Master Liang's face was full of sympathy for the tragic experiences of those women.
Meng Qing, Meng Qing was stunned. She really guessed it right. She had heard Ji Xi say that a woman was crying in the house at night, and she suspected that these human traffickers were not only abducting young children, but also abducting women.
This kind of behavior is simply outrageous. "What happened next? How did the county government arrange those women like this?" Meng Qing asked quickly.
"After asking the doctor, they were all frightened and fearful of men. The doctor almost couldn't get close to them. They finally calmed down. Now Mr. Fang is also worried about how to deal with these people.
"
Speaking of this, Master Liang frowned tightly.
"Can't we find the families of these women?"
"It's very difficult." Mr. Liang shook his head and hesitated. "Even if you can find it, it's not necessarily a good thing."
Meng Qing didn't figure it out at first, but then he realized that this was an ancient place with conservative folk customs. These women were abducted, and their reputations must have been damaged. No matter whether they could find their families or not, if the news spread, they would be dead.
.
If these women were really abducted nearby, how come there was no news at all? It must have been deliberately covered up by their families. If they were abducted from other places, it would be even more difficult to find them at the current traffic speed.
It gets harder.
I think Lord Fang must have thought of this and made it so difficult to handle.
Meng Qing sympathized with this, but her capital was limited and she couldn't think of a good way to help these women. She could only keep it in mind for the time being and asked about the children who were locked up with Juhua and the others.
"Those children are lucky. Although they were imprisoned for a while, they were not kidnapped for a long time. After being rescued, they had a good sleep and a good meal. They are much better now. Except for the comparison
Other than silence, there is no big problem."
"Master Fang has also reported the incident of rescuing people. I think the parents who lost their children will come to find the children as soon as possible after hearing the news."
"Do you know enough about the origins of these children?" Meng Qing thought of the novels she had read in her previous life, where she often encountered powerful children among the abducted people, so she was very curious about this.
"After asking, I found that they are all children from ordinary families, but their family background is better and their food is a little fatter than ordinary children. They are being targeted. Two of them are the sons of wealthy businessmen. Mr. Fang has already
I've been contacted and will come to pick him up right away."
Chief Liang understood the meaning of Meng Qing's words and did not hide anything, but told the truth frankly.
Meng Qing immediately understood that although there were no children of powerful people among them, the fact of destroying a trafficking gang and rescuing so many children was considered a great achievement.
"By the way, one of the girls, according to her own words, is an orphan. She wants to see your kidnapped little girl. Is it convenient for you?"
"Who? Want to see Juhua?" Meng Qing was a little confused about this, "Why? I haven't heard Juhua mention this matter."
"According to what she said, she wanted to get back a handkerchief, which seemed to be her mother's relic." Master Liang said.
Mentioning the handkerchief, Meng Qing suddenly remembered that when Goudan was taken away by Ji Xi, there was indeed a handkerchief on his forehead. The sentiment was a relic of that little girl.
He hurriedly agreed: "I will ask Juhua what happened when I get back. If it is really the little girl's handkerchief, I must clean it and send it back to her. After all, it is my mother's relic and it should be kept well."
"With your words, I have an explanation for this little girl."
