But the next second, she pretended not to see me, crying to the onlookers while using her children to gain sympathy. It seemed that these people had become her protective covers, and with them, I could not do anything.

I shook my head, sighed lightly, and pulled Jiang Yifeng out of the crowd. After all, there are so many people here now, and it is useless to say too much. They will think that we are just bullying the old woman on purpose.

"Tell me if these people are stupid. She is obviously a liar, and there are so many people who protect her. I believe her, I really pissed off." Jiang Yifeng said angrily.

"There is no way to do this. Some people are good at disguising themselves. Even if you are doing it for the sake of others, they will not appreciate it." I advised Jiang Yifeng.

Sometimes it is like this. You are helping others with kind intentions, but others do not appreciate it at all. You think you are a bad person and have some purpose to do this. This is reality.

"Then what should we do now?" Jiang Yifeng asked to me.

I shook my head, "It's getting dark now. I guess she's going to leave here and go back later. Let's wait here first. When you go back with her, you will be able to find her address. As for the question you mentioned."

What we are worried about now is not that the old woman uses her children to deceive others into sympathy, but that she will find their address first, so that Li Shufen can see her child and save her from here.

Jiang Yifeng and I stood by the roadside, watching the old woman repeating the miserable experiences at home to the onlookers. We knew that our ears were almost calloused, so we saw the old woman standing up tremblingly, putting away the money in the box, and finally carrying the child away.

I glanced at Jiang Yifeng, Jiang Yifeng nodded, and we slowly followed the old woman. At this time, the old woman didn't know if she felt our existence or was afraid that others would find something, so she kept looking behind her and found that no one followed her, so she felt relieved.

We followed the old woman to a yard, which was a unique courtyard. From the outside, it was not very big inside, but it was very quiet because we didn't see many people along the way.

"Dangdangdang." The old woman knocked on the iron door vigorously.

After a while, a burst of rapid footsteps were heard from far to near, and finally the iron door was opened. A man poked his head out of it and saw that it was an old woman, and he immediately laughed.

"Mom, I came back very early today." The man said to the old woman.

"Oh, don't mention it. Let me in. My waist is about to break. This baby has been making trouble from morning to night. I want to throw her to death now." The old woman said to the man.

The man nodded, opened the iron door, greeted the old woman in, and finally looked outside. Seeing that there was no one, he closed the iron door.

"What should we do? We can't get in." Jiang Yifeng asked me.

The door was closed and we couldn't get in at all. In addition, Jiang Yifeng had a conflict with the old woman. Even if he wanted to knock on the door and go in, he might be bombarded out.

"Wait first." I said to Jiang Yifeng. Since I have come here, there will always be a solution.

In the room on the other side, Li Shufen's husband and Zhang Qiang were counting the money the old woman got back today, counting and laughing, her eyes full of greed.

At this moment, I heard the crying sound coming from the neighboring house. It was the cry of the baby. The sound was hoarse, but no one took care of her.

"Crying, crying, I know how to cry all day long, and my ears will be called out. If it weren't for your usefulness, I would have sold you long ago." The old woman was drinking water while cursing angrily, as if the child had nothing to do with him.

"Mom, don't say that. This kid is a great hero. If it weren't for the children, who would have believed us? Look, we earned 2,000 today, which is my monthly salary." Zhang Qiang said to the old woman with a smile.

The old woman snorted softly, "Hmph, I can't help it if the hospital doesn't pay money. Your wife died early, so she left these two burdens. When the money is almost done, she will sell the baby and get an extra amount of money at that time. The big one will be sold. Then she will marry another one and give birth to a fat boy for her mother."

"Well, I just listen to my mother." Zhang Qiang nodded and said with a smile.

"By the way, mom, you're hungry too. Let's go to the restaurant. I saw a restaurant when I was asking for money on the road today. The dishes inside were so delicious. We had a good meal today." Zhang Qiang said to the old woman.

The old woman touched her belly and nodded, "I have been pretending to be pitiful these days, and I haven't eaten anything good. Today I'll start eating meat."

After saying that, he picked up his coat and put it on, and prepared to go out, but he didn't expect that the children's crying in the room became more and more violent, and they were already accompanied by coughing. It seemed that the old woman was a little unbearable, or she was afraid that the children would have nothing to do with it. She shouted at the door without any tools to make money in the future.

"Xiu'er, what are you doing, you are so damn girl? Come in quickly."

After a while, a little girl dressed in a sloppy and waxy face walked in. The girl seemed to be only six or seven years old, with big eyes looking at the old woman in front of her in panic.

"Grandma, Xiu'er was just washing clothes." Xiu'er replied in a low voice.

The old woman looked at Xiu'er with disdain, "Look at you like this. If someone goes out, you will say that your father and I have treated you badly. Okay, go and see your sister, don't let her cry. If you are hungry, cook some batter for her to eat. By the way, remember to wash your clothes. If you see you being lazy, I will definitely not spare you. Your father and I go out for dinner. If there is any leftover soup, I will bring it back to you."

"Xiu'er understands." Xiu'er nodded, with a hint of anticipation in her eyes.

Since her mother passed away, she has become a slave to the family. She cooks and washes every day. Whenever the old woman and Zhang Qiang have any unpleasant things, she will punch and kick Xiu'er. This is a common thing.

She often couldn't eat well, and even worse, she didn't eat anything at all. The leftover soup of the old woman and Zhang Qiang became her food. So when facing the old woman said that she would bring the soup of the restaurant back to her, it was already a huge happiness.

Jiang Yifeng and I were always guarding outside the yard, but we never saw any movement inside. Just as we were about to sneak in, we heard the sound of the iron door being opened. The old woman and Zhang Qiang walked out and did not see the child's shadow. Then we carefully locked the iron door.

Seeing the two of them getting further and further away, Jiang Yifeng and I slipped out of the corner.

"What are these two people doing? What about the child?" Jiang Yifeng asked.

"I don't know, go in and take a look." I said.

Although the iron door was locked, the wall next to it was not very high. Jiang Yifeng and I easily climbed over the wall into the yard.

I saw that the yard was not big, there was a small well inside, and there was a pile of freshly washed clothes next to it, but it was not time to dry. There were some children's clothes inside the clothes, which showed that there were others here.

“Wow.”

Before we could get inside, we heard bursts of crying. The sound was not loud and very tender. It was the sound of a child when we heard it.

At this time, the locust wood sign began to tremble and made a buzzing sound. I quickly held the locust wood sign in my hand and silently chanted the spell. Suddenly, a burst of blue smoke flew out, and the female ghost appeared in front of us.
