Courtyard House: Purchasing Agents' Comeback from the Great Famine

After listening to the police's account, Qin Huairu looked at Banggeng in disbelief, feeling a deep pain in her heart, but also feeling proud that Banggeng, at such a young age, had managed to escape from the clutches of the kidnappers.

Everyone in the courtyard turned to look at Banggeng, their eyes wide as if trying to see through him.

"Hahaha, what are you all looking at? I've said it before, my Banggeng has been smart since he was a kid. Isn't it normal that Banggeng was able to escape from the kidnappers?"

Jia Zhangshi laughed heartily, her eyes filled with smugness.

They had never heard of any child in Beijing who had been abducted and managed to escape from kidnappers, but their son Banggeng managed to escape. Doesn't that prove that their son Banggeng is smart?

"Comrade Qin Huairu, can you tell us how Jia Geng was abducted by the kidnappers?" the police officer asked.

Qin Huairu nodded and immediately recounted the details of Banggeng's disappearance to the police, but what she said was of no value to solving the case.

Seeing this, the two police officers knew it would be difficult to find any useful clues from them. They told Qin Huairu to keep a close eye on her child in the future before leaving.

After the police left, everyone in the courtyard went home. It wasn't good for them to disturb the mother and child who had finally reunited.

Qin Huairu carried Banggeng into the house and sat him down, then hurriedly asked, "Banggeng, do you remember what that beggar looked like? Tell Mom honestly, how did you escape?"

Banggeng shook his head: "I don't remember very clearly either, back then..."

Then, Banggeng recounted in detail how he met an uncle on his way home who asked him for help and gave him two White Rabbit milk candies. After that, he was drugged, sold to a remote mountain village, and finally escaped while the old man was sleeping.

Of course, he wouldn't tell anyone that he set fire to Old Man Chen's house.

After hearing Bang Geng's account, Qin Huairu felt a sharp pain in her heart, and her heart ached terribly.

Then, she looked at Jia Zhangshi and said seriously, "Mom, starting tomorrow, you must pick up and drop off Banggeng at school. If you can't do it, I will give your job back to you, and then I will take Banggeng and Xiaodang and remarry someone else. I mean what I say."

"Alright, Qin Huairu, I'll listen to you, okay? Stop threatening me with remarriage all the time. Let me tell you, I'm not easily scared," Jia Zhangshi said, frowning.

Qin Huairu glanced at Jia Zhangshi, not wanting to argue with her anymore. As long as she agreed to pick up and drop off Banggeng at school, that would be fine. After this incident, she was really scared. If something else happened to Banggeng, she really couldn't bear it.

"Mom, I want to eat meat! I want to eat meat! I haven't eaten meat in so long! Do we have any meat at home?" Banggeng cried out, rubbing his stomach.

Hearing this, Qin Huairu ruffled the terrier's curly fur and comforted it, "Good boy, we don't have any meat right now. Mom will make you some white flour buns later. Tomorrow, Mom will definitely find a way to buy you some meat, okay?"

"Okay, thank you, Mom. Go and cook, I'm starving."

"Wait a minute, Mom will make you something delicious right away."

Qin Huairu ruffled the pheasant's curly hair again, then went to the kitchen to cook with a smile.

Qin Huairu is now filled with joy, feeling that her life has found meaning, and she even walks with a sense of pride.

......

The Intermediate People's Court, the Wang family.

Qin Jingru and Lu Banxia returned to the house, and Lu Banxia couldn't help but complain:

"Sister Jingru, tell me, how could Banggeng, a seven-year-old child, be so strong? I've never heard of a child escaping from a kidnapper. Banggeng is too amazing!"

Qin Jingru rolled her eyes and said, "Now you see?"

"Banxia, ​​let me tell you, Wang Feng told me a long time ago that Banggeng would be back, and I didn't expect him to actually come back."

"what?"

Lu Banxia looked at Qin Jingru in surprise and exclaimed, "Sister Jingru, could it be... could it be that the person who kidnapped Banggeng was Brother Feng? Did Brother Feng deliberately release Banggeng this time?"

"Bang."

Qin Jingru flicked Lu Banxia on the forehead, making her wince in pain.

"Ouch, Sister Jingru, why did you hit me? It hurts so much!"

Qin Jingru said seriously, "Banxia, ​​what are you thinking about? Let me tell you, you absolutely must not tell any outsiders about this, otherwise, even if it wasn't Wang Feng who did it, you'll ruin it by talking nonsense, and it might cause a lot of trouble."

"When Bang Geng was first kidnapped by Pai Hanako, Brother Wang Feng said that Bang Geng's life was tougher than iron and that he would definitely come back someday. That was just a guess, you understand?"

"And another thing, in our compound, Banggeng has been stealing things since he was five years old. He steals the hearts of cabbages from other people's houses and peanuts from Shazhu's house. You know, someone like Banggeng, whose head is full of bad ideas, might have come up with some bad plan, tricked Paihuazi, and then run away."

"oh."

Lu Banxia nodded her little head thoughtfully: "No matter what, I still think Bang Geng is really amazing. If he had been rescued by the police this time, it would be fine, but the police also said that he escaped on his own. A seven-year-old child, no matter what he did, he was able to escape from the card players. That's his skill."

"That's true," Qin Jingru agreed.

"Alright, stop sighing. I'm going to cook."

"Um."

Qin Jingru picked up a cleaver and went to the kitchen to start cooking.

She had already cooked the rice and was just waiting to prepare the dishes. Since it was just the two of them eating, she could just make any dish.

That evening, she made a stir-fried egg with green peppers and a hot and sour shredded potato dish, which the two of them ate together.

"vomit."

Qin Jingru felt nauseous and wanted to vomit as soon as she ate a piece of egg.

"Sister Jingru, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Lu Banxia asked hurriedly.

Qin Jingru waved her hand: "It's nothing, I probably just didn't sleep well last night."

As she spoke, she picked up another piece of hot and sour shredded potatoes and put it in her mouth.

"vomit."

Qin Jingru vomited the food this time, feeling even more nauseous.

Seeing this, Lu Banxia quickly came up behind Qin Jingru and patted her back.

"Jingru, tomorrow is Sunday and we're off. How about we go to the hospital tomorrow?"

Qin Jingru was very puzzled. Why did she suddenly feel nauseous and want to vomit? Could it be that she was pregnant with Wang Feng's child?
