70's Raising a Child: I'm done with cannon fodder female supporting roles

Chapter 77 The elder sister is missing

After Jiang Zhe parked the car, Shen Nanqiao jumped out and walked up to the two Nanqiao sisters.

I saw Xiuzhu and Xiuying's eyes were swollen like walnuts and their faces were full of anxiety.

"What happen to you guys?"

"Nan Qiao, Nan Qiao, my elder sister is missing. She was working in the fields this morning, so my third sister and I went home to pick corn and millet. When the sun went down, my elder sister still hadn't returned from the fields.

We went to look for her, but we only found a book dropped on the ground, but no sign of my elder sister."

After what happened to Yaoyao, the two Nanqiao sisters were afraid that their eldest sister had also been kidnapped.

Shen Nanqiao's face darkened: "Don't worry, go to the fields first."

As he was about to leave, he suddenly remembered something and turned back to Jiang Zhe and said:

"Jiang Zhe, you go home first, I'll be back soon."

Jiang Zhe's face turned slightly cold.

The person was missing, and Shen Nanqiao actually wanted to solve the problem himself.

Am I, a grown man, just a decoration?
Jiang Zhe stepped forward with a serious look on his face:
"If someone is missing, I'll go look for him with you. If he's really kidnapped, do you want to buy one and get two for free?"

Although Jiang Zhe's tone was not harsh, coupled with his heroic face, Shen Nanqiao could not ignore the powerful aura emanating from him.

Shen Nanqiao paused, thinking that having Jiang Zhe around really made him feel at ease.

So she said to Xiuying and Xiuzhu, "First take us to the place where your elder sister was lost and see if there are any clues."

The two Nanqiao sisters nodded quickly.

He took Shen Nanqiao and Jiang Zhe and walked quickly towards the fields.

When passing by Ma's house, Ma Xiaoyu was in a bad mood because his grandmother was not at home.

When he saw the two Nan Qiao sisters, he picked up his slingshot and started shooting without saying a word. The small stones flew towards Xiuying's eyes.

Shen Nanqiao's face suddenly changed, and he was about to push Xiuying away, but Jiang Zhe quickly took action, accurately caught the stone in the air, and held it tightly in his hand.

Xiuzhu hurried forward to support Xiuying: "Second sister, are you okay?"

When Shen Nanqiao saw blood slowly flowing out of Jiang Zhe's palm, his heart tightened and he hurriedly tried to pry Jiang Zhe's hand open.

The blood-stained stone fell to the ground. Shen Nanqiao looked at the bloody scratch on his palm and without hesitation lowered his head and tore off his clothes to pack Jiang Zhe's bag.

Tied.

Jiang Zhe frowned and stopped Shen Nanqiao.

Shen Nanqiao said anxiously: "Jiang Zhe, your hand is injured!"

Jiang Zhe said calmly: "Don't ruin your clothes."

He didn't want Shen Nanqiao to be in tatters and cause gossip among the villagers.

Shen Nanqiao felt warm in his heart, and took Jiang Zhe's hand to the well at the door to wash it.

When Xiuying and Xiuzhu saw this scene, they were both angry and anxious.

When Xiuying thought of her elder sister's hard work, she could no longer suppress the anger in her heart.

"Ma Xiaoyu, what are you doing? Who allowed you to hit people with a slingshot?"

Ma Xiaoyu also blushed and shouted loudly:
"You two bad guys, I'm starving, why don't you come in and cook for me!
Believe it or not, when dad and grandma come back, I will marry you all off!"

Shen Nanqiao was shocked that a five-year-old boy would say such words.

Xiuying's face turned pale, her fingers clenched, and her joints turned white: "Ma Xiaoyu!"

The shout attracted the neighbors, who stood on the wall to watch.

Xiuzhu wanted to hold Xiuying back, but when she saw Nanqiao's painful expression, she hesitated.

"Why should we raise you! You are a brother, not a son!" "When will you grow up? You come home every day hungry and need to eat!

Did you know that my elder sister is missing? My elder sister is missing, did you know that? "

Xiuying's voice was tearful but firm, and the neighbors around her were also moved and felt sympathy.

Xiuying's tears kept flowing: "Ma Xiaoyu, now you want to use a slingshot to hurt people. If you really hurt me and my sister, we will never forgive you in this life!"

Ma Xiaoyu usually relies on his grandmother's support and is fearless.

But now that his grandmother was not around, he saw that everyone was on the opposite side and began to panic.

"I……"

Xiuying stopped looking at him and pulled Xiuzhu towards Shen Nanqiao.

With red eyes, she said to Jiang Zhe: "Sorry, Brother Jiang Zhe, we apologize to you!"

Jiang Zhe washed the blood off his hands and stood up: "It's okay, let's go find Xiu Mian first."

Xiuying nodded with red eyes.

When the neighbors saw this scene, they didn't dare to say anything. They took the children home and closed the door.

When Ma Xiaoyu saw the neighbors’ reactions, he became even more frightened. He threw away the slingshot angrily, ran back into the house and closed the door.

Shen Nanqiao came to the place where Xiumian disappeared and picked up the book on the ground.

Jiang Zhe recognized that this was his book.

Although he did not finish school, he loved reading and brought back a lot of good books when he was discharged from the army.

Shen Nanqiao felt a little guilty and touched the tip of his nose:
"Well, Xiuzhu likes to study very much, but her family doesn't have the conditions to study, so I lent our books to Xiuzhu.
Xiuzhu would return each book after reading it, so I lent her a few more at once."

Jiang Zhe looked at Shen Nanqiao and smiled helplessly: "Shen Nanqiao, in your eyes, am I such a stingy and terrible person?"

Shen Nanqiao quickly shook his head and said, "No, Jiang Zhe, you are not scary at all."

You are a very good person, so good that I am afraid of letting you down.

Shen Nanqiao shook his head like a rattle, looking a little flustered, and said quickly: "No, really not, I'm just afraid that you will misunderstand."

Jiang Zhe wiped the dirt off the book calmly, then handed the book to Xiuzhu and said gently:
"This book is mine. I can let anyone read it if I want. Nowadays, there are very few opportunities for people to learn. If someone is willing to learn, how can I stop him?"

Although there is no college entrance examination now, there is no more school to go to after high school.

But Jiang Zhe knew in his heart that knowledge, even if it could not change one's destiny immediately, could broaden one's thinking and enrich one's knowledge, which was always beneficial.

The two of them did not waste any time and began to look for relevant clues.

The two men squatted down and looked carefully at the soil on the ground.

Judging from the marks on the soil, the footprints were obviously left by a man.

Shen Nanqiao immediately picked up a button from the mud. She held the button tightly, and her mind started working rapidly as she began to recall the plot in the book.

The world in the book.

The original owner was completely fascinated by Chen Mucheng and gave him money in large amounts.

He even planned to take away the Jiang family's money and run away with Chen Mucheng.

And this button.

It was given to Chen Mucheng by the original owner at that time.

The original owner's obsession with Chen Mucheng had really reached the point of obsession.

For him, they would do anything, it's totally irrational.

Shen Nanqiao held the button, his face instantly turned gloomy and scary, and he couldn't help but complain in his heart:
How did I take over Shen Nanqiao's body?

The original owner was too stupid and foolish, just being stupid for the sake of being stupid!
She raised her head, her eyes as cold as ice, and looked at Jiang Zhe, saying seriously: "This is Chen Mucheng's button."
