"Really, mother?"
Dabao sniffed. This was the first time that he didn't see Erbao all night, and his heart was full of anxiety and uneasiness.
"Of course it's true. Will my mother change you again?"
Su Liuye held him in her arms. Seeing that his eyes were darkening, she took him to the bed and comforted him softly, "Dabao, mother is very tired today. You sleep with mother for a while. After waking up, Erbao Just came back.”
"But……"
Dabao opened his mouth, and originally wanted to ask where Erbao had gone, but looking at Su Liuye's pale face, Dabao said heartbrokenly, "Mother, did you stay up all night last night? Then I will stay here with you. You, go to sleep!"
"Okay, Dabao is here with me, I feel relieved."
Su Liuye smiled, covered Dabao with the quilt, and hummed nursery rhymes to him.
Dabao hadn't slept much all night, but when he saw her coming back, he relaxed and soon fell asleep.
Looking at his sleeping face, Su Liuye sighed.
Although Dabao is a big kid, he is only four years old after all.
She glanced at the sky and saw that it was still early, so she decided to sleep with Dabao for a while.
After waking up, she took Dabao to the Yamen, and the Yamen told her that Yang Chongzhou and others had returned and were in the backyard.
"Second treasure!"
Su Liuye hurried to the backyard and saw several children sitting in the yard with uneasy faces. Several aunts were helping them sort out their clothes.
These children have been kept in cages for many days. They are dirty and have to be taken to clean them.
"Mother!"
Just as she was about to ask where Erbao was, a familiar voice came from the room.
Turning around, he saw the fair and tender little girl running out of the room and pounced on her.
"Er Bao, when did you come back?" Su Liuye hugged her tightly, feeling happy in her heart, "Dabao and I have been worried all day!"
"I just came back. A few uncles brought us back."
Erbao lay in her arms and briefly told her what happened last night.
After being released from the cage, these children ran into the forest. They had never been to a place like this, and they were soon frightened to tears by the atmosphere in the forest.
Fortunately, Ming Yin was there and took the children to hide in a nearby ravine and did not run around while moving forward. Several times, the bandits almost discovered them, but the ravine was hidden and they were well hidden.
At dawn, the bandits hurriedly boarded the boat and left, and did not look for them again.
The children hid all night, like frightened birds, not daring to go anywhere. Mingyin took Erbao to the nearby woodcutter, bought some food and water from them, and kept waiting.
At noon, there was a barking sound, and the little white dog came with Yang Chongzhou and the others and took the children back.
"Mother, brother Mingyin is looking for him." Erbao whispered to her, "I just heard them say that brother Mingyin is going home. It seems that grandma is sick."
"grandmother?"
Isn't that the Queen Mother?
Commander Yang had told her before that Ming Yin had to go back immediately because of something going on in the capital. It turned out to be because the empress dowager was ill. No wonder Concubine Liu returned to the capital early.
"Er Bao, was he the one who took you out?" Dabao suddenly spoke, his tone full of displeasure.
"Yes." Erbao didn't notice anything was wrong and nodded obediently, "Brother Mingyin said he would take me to eat delicious food, so I followed him out."
"You-how can you run around casually!"
Dabao was really pissed off.
He thought about many possibilities, but he never thought that he would run away for this reason.
Su Liuye was also speechless, but thinking of Erbao's temperament, she might have sighed and said, "Erbao, you can't just run out anymore. Mother and Dabao are both worried about you."
"But……"
"No way!" Dabao interrupted her angrily, "No matter who it is from now on, you can't follow him out, you have to tell me no matter what!"
"Oh well."
Seeing that Dabao seemed really angry, Erbao could only nod aggrievedly.
"Okay, come back with me quickly!"
Dabao took her hand and wanted to take her away.
Erbao looked into the room eagerly, "But Brother Mingyin is still in there——"
"Ignore him, go home quickly!" Dabao felt annoyed when he heard the name now.
Erbao curled his lips, "But he said he would take me to eat something delicious."
"You, you are really going to piss me off!" Dabao said angrily, "Come with me now, and I will take you to eat!"
"Really?" Erbao's eyes lit up, "Then let's go quickly, I'm already hungry!"
Seeing her like this, Dabao's face became even more ugly, and he turned and walked out the door.
Erbao didn't know what was happening yet, so he followed him excitedly.
Seeing her like this, Su Liuye began to understand why Mingyin could take the lead in Erbao so easily. It turned out that Erbao was more active than him...
She was funny and helpless.
It's a good thing that Erbao has such an innocent personality, but it's also too easy to be deceived...
She sighed, and just as she was about to follow him, she saw Ming Yin and Yang Chongzhou coming out of the room.
The child looked ugly, glanced in her direction and left.
Yang Chongzhou followed behind, cupped his hands in her direction and followed.
They should be leaving.
Su Liuye hesitated for a moment and did not go over to say anything. The Queen Mother was ill in the palace. As a prince, Ming Yin must go back. The delay for so long is probably the limit.
She followed Dabao and Erbao and led the two children to buy a lot of snacks on the street. When she returned to the restaurant, the injury on her leg was already painful, but fortunately there was no further bleeding.
After resting in the store for several days, she returned to the store to help when the wound was no longer so painful. Qin Lian helped her go to Huichun Hall to get medicine several times, and even told her about Huichun Hall when she came back.
"A Liu, it turns out that the female doctor is very famous in the town." Qin Lian said, "Her father is a famous doctor. She has studied medicine with her father since she was a child, and she has superb medical skills."
"Yeah?"
Then why is she with the bandits? Su Liuye frowned. The bandit seemed to be very familiar with her. She could still move around freely on the bandit's boat.
No one in Luoxi Town seems to know about this relationship, otherwise, they would have sent Ye Yunniang to the Yamen long ago.
The bandits in Tieniushan Mountain used to disturb the mountain roads outside Luoxi Town, and everyone passing by had to pay tolls. In the past few years, the imperial court sent troops to rectify the bandits several times, so the bandits were not so rampant.
But the people in the town still hate the bandits deeply. If they knew that Ye Yunniang had a close relationship with the bandits, they would never run back to the town where she was.
It's just that Ye Yunniang doesn't look like someone who would collude with bandits...
Su Liuye couldn't figure out the reason, so she stopped thinking about it. After all, Ye Yunniang had also saved her.
