Zhao Jun felt very uncomfortable. If he could change his position at will, he would not want to work in the security department anymore.

What does Wang Ying mean by this? Are you trying to embarrass him

Isn't it just a pregnancy? Is it necessary to ask a man to pick you up and drop you off every day

Zhao Jun let out a long breath. Ever since he was reborn, the affection he had for Wang Ying that he had accumulated over the years had almost disappeared.

Wang Ying has lost his face time and again, and now she is irritating him every day.

Zhao Jun felt uncomfortable and irritated. This woman was narrow-minded. Wasn't he good to her? He never treated her badly in food and drink. Did he let her do this deliberately to disgust him

Zhao Jun really felt that Wang Ying did it on purpose, deliberately letting Xu Shuang pretend to step on his face.

If Wang Ying knew that Zhao Jun was thinking this way, she would definitely say something.

This guy really has a nose painted on a door panel—what a big face!

Do you really think the earth revolves around him alone

Wang Ying and Xu Shuang went to a restaurant, and after eating, they wandered back home.

As soon as she entered the compound, a figure rushed up to her, almost knocking her down. She dodged and protected her stomach almost instinctively. Fortunately, the other party also realized that the person coming was not the one he wanted to wait for, and braked urgently.

Wang Ying was furious. She looked carefully and found that the person rushing out was Ma Dalian's second daughter-in-law. Wang Ying vaguely remembered that her name was Ding Zhaodi.

Ding Zhaodi was in a daze, with disheveled hair. She almost bumped into Wang Ying but didn't say a word. She just wanted to rush out.

Wang Ying was completely confused, but she did not step forward to stop him. Instead, she carefully moved away. Because after Ding Zhaodi ran out, everyone in the compound followed her out.

"It's dark here, you guys should hurry up and follow them, don't let the child be lost and the adult be lost too."

"Where can this Ma family donkey go? His brothers and sisters have all returned, but he is the only one missing."

"Don't take it lightly. My mother's family said that four children were lost in the city around this time last year. It's possible that it was the beggar."

"Stop talking, I'm almost crying because I didn't see Aunt Ma..."

Wang Ying quickly grabbed Aunt Liu who was also going out to look for someone and said, "Auntie, is there something wrong?"

Aunt Liu patted Wang Ying's hand and said, "One of the Ma family's children is missing. It doesn't look right. The people from our courtyard and the neighboring courtyard have all been mobilized. Let's go out and look for him. You are pregnant, so don't move. Just rest at home."

After a pause, Aunt Liu remembered that Xu Shuang had brought a piece of meat to her a few days ago and asked her to take care of Wang Ying. After all, Xu Shuang had a job and could not be with Wang Ying all the time. But at this time, Aunt Zhao was still in the countryside, so she could only ask the neighbors to pay more attention to her.

"It's not safe for you to be alone at home. Why don't you go to my house? Your sister Ge is there."

Wang Ying came back alone at this time, thinking Xu Shuang should still be busy at the hotel. Aunt Liu arranged for Wang Ying to go to the hotel and left in a hurry. Wang Ying also saw that there were many unfamiliar faces in the team looking for people, thinking that they should be residents of the compound next door.

The men of the Liu family and the eldest daughter-in-law Tang Min also left. Only the second daughter-in-law Ge Yue and the two children of the first wife were left.

As Ge Yue lit the fire, he said to Wang Ying, "The children in our courtyard are all close in age. The two branches of the Ma family have six children, and they are just staggered. The oldest is only eleven, and the youngest is only one year old. The one who went missing this time is the eldest child of the second branch, Donkey Egg, who is only seven years old this year. He said just now that he went out to play with his brothers and sisters from the first branch and Dabao from the Xu family. In the end, several of them came back one by one, but he didn't come back."

"I thought the child was just having fun, but I waited for him but he was nowhere to be found. I went looking for him but couldn't find him, so I panicked and came back to look for my mother-in-law."

Although the public security is better now than in the past, the problem of beating beggars has not ceased.

There are always those unscrupulous human traffickers who will do this even at the risk of being shot. Especially since the child of the Ma family is almost seven years old this year, and because the Ma family is not well off, with many people and few workers, they raise him skinny and small, and at first glance he looks about five years old. This is exactly the age that human traffickers like the most.

Adults are generally reluctant to release very young children, as they are difficult to kidnap. Older children remember more and it is difficult to keep them well if they are kidnapped.

Ge Yue sighed, "Luckily Yangyang didn't go with us today. You can imagine how hateful this human trafficker is. He separated the mother and child after ten months of pregnancy. He is such a jerk. He should be arrested and eaten like peanuts!"

Wang Ying: “You are right.”

Although she was pregnant for a short time, Wang Ying already loved the little one in her belly. She was furious at the thought of the baby being kidnapped.

Liu Yang from the Liu family is eight years old this year and is old enough to know what happened. He is the only one in the compound who is close in age to the lost Donkey. Seeing that his friend who he often played with was missing, he felt even more sad.

He heard from adults that many bad guys nowadays are like this, cheating on children and once they’re taken away they’ll never come back!

Alas, I hope Donkey Egg can come back soon.

Wang Ying looked outside through the window of Liu's house. Everyone in the Ma family had gone out to look for someone, leaving only a few children and Aunt Ma at home. Aunt Ma was pacing around the room anxiously.

Suddenly, there was a sound of the door opening and Aunt Ma rushed out.

"Donkey Egg? Donkey Egg, is that you? Why did you come back just now, you little brat..."

The person who pushed the door open was not the Donkey that Aunt Ma was waiting for, but Xu Lei from the Xu family.

"Hey, Auntie, what are you doing? Why are you waiting at the gate?"

It would have been better if he didn't say anything. Once he said it, Aunt Ma's anger, which was growing increasingly anxious due to the waiting, had an outlet.

"How dare you ask! It's all your fault! It's all your child's fault!"

Aunt Ma: "My two eldest children said that our donkey egg would follow your Dabao wherever we went. We were always playing together. Why did your Dabao come back but my donkey egg disappeared? I don't care, you have to compensate me for my donkey egg!"

Aunt Ma held onto Xu Lei's sleeves tightly. Although not all of her six children were precious, they were well taken care of. Especially the older ones, who were born in the years after the disaster. Life was so hard, but she managed to raise them. How could she lose them at this time

Aunt Ma cried and made a fuss, insisting that Xu Lei give an explanation.

Although Xu Lei is a grown man, he does not work on a daily basis and has no strength in recent years. He was being pulled by Aunt Ma and he couldn't even pry her hands open.

"Auntie Ma! Auntie Ma! Listen to me, cough cough..."

"I won't listen! Tell your Dabao to come out! Why is my child missing but yours is fine?"

Wang Ying quietly asked Ge Yue: "What should we do? Should we go out and persuade them?"

Ge Yue: "Don't do that yet."

She pursed her lips and said, "The Xu family is not very particular about what they do. Their child took Donkey with him when he went out. The children were divided into two groups. Donkey's brother and sister didn't know whether he came back or not, but Xu Dabao knew. Guess what happened? The child didn't tell anyone when he came back. If the Ma family hadn't gone out to look for him and didn't find him, and hadn't asked him about it, the child probably wouldn't have told the adults on his own initiative."

Ge Yue: "That's it. Look, the Xu family didn't go to look for them either. The old man and old lady of this family just hid in their room holding their eldest grandson, trying to fool them."

Wang Ying: "Who are these people?"

Ge Yue: "That's right. Just wait and see. Regardless of whether the child is found or not, both the Ma and Xu families are arguing."

If the child is found, Xu Dabao will definitely be held responsible. If the child is not found, the Xu family will definitely be punished just by looking at the look on Donkey's mother Ding Zhaodi's face.

Wang Ying thought about it and had some doubts: "Why don't we go to the police station? If a child is missing, we neighbors may not be able to find him as quickly as others."

Ge Yue: "... The police station can't do anything about it, right?"

This is the difference in perception caused by the difference in times. In the past, people would go to the police first when they had problems. Now, when people have problems, they will first ask their neighbors for help. If that doesn’t work, they will go to the factory, and finally consider going to the police station.

But Wang Ying felt that this lost child was no different from any other case, and the neighbors had limited opportunities to find the person, so it would be better to file a report at the police station. After all, it would be easier for public institutions to find the person.

After Wang Ying said this, Ge Yue also felt that it was right.

That’s right. If he really was a kidnapper, he would just pack up the child and run away. It would be useless for them to search far more widely.

Ge Yue was a man of swift action, and he stood up immediately: "Then I'll go to the police station, how about you stay at home with the two kids?"

Wang Ying nodded: "Go ahead, we won't be leaving the yard, it's okay."

Ge Yue put on a thick coat and went out. Outside, Ma Dalian and Xu Lei were still arguing. Aunt Xu finally stopped hiding in the house and pretended to be dead. She came out and tore Ma Dalian's hand: "Ma Dalian, what are you saying? Our Dabao is still a child. How can he know what's going on? I know you are sad that your child is lost, but you can't throw dirty water on my child like this. You are hurting my heart by saying this. My Dabao is only ten years old. You framed him with such a crime. Do you want our whole family to die?"

Wang Ying was shocked. Aunt Xu was much more capable than Aunt Ma. Look at what she said. She picked all the fruits of her own labor but ended up throwing a basin of dirty water at her.

Fortunately, Ge Yue went out at this time and shouted.

"Aunties, is this the time to quarrel? I know everyone is worried about the child being lost, so don't make a fuss. The first thing to do is to find the child. Auntie Ma, let me go to the police station with you. Let's report the child's disappearance and ask the police to help us look for him."

Ma Dalian's eyes sparkled: "You're right! Xiao Ge, I'll go with you right away!"

As long as she can get her grandson back, she would be willing to go to the Revolutionary Committee right now, let alone the police station!

Ge Yue: "Aunt Xu, go back and ask your Dabao if he has leaked any information. We will go find the police. Who knows, they may come to question him soon."

Aunt Xu smiled and said, "Xiao Ge, why are you doing this? Donkey Egg might just be lost and will be back soon. Is it necessary to alarm the police..."

Ge Yue: "Look at what you said, what if we are not lost? The sooner we find them, the sooner we can feel at ease."

Ge Yue asked Ma to go out, but was stopped by someone.

Xu Lei looked ashamed: "It's my child's fault. In this case, Aunt Ma, you don't have to go. I'll go out and call the police for you."
