Chapter 378
The woman raised her sleeve and wiped her eyes, "Thank you girl."

"You don't need to be so polite." Bai Lan saw the two very well-behaved little girls eating peaches, "How old are they?"

"The two big girls are five years old, and the little girl in my arms is nine months old." The woman wiped the peach juice from the corner of the baby's mouth with a crumpled handkerchief.

Bai Lan looked at the little baby in her arms. Although she was a little thinner, her eyes were big and bright, and her facial features were exquisite. She was a beauty.

"Very cute child." Bai Lan praised.

"Oh, I can't keep her for a few days. This child is going to be given away." The woman burst into tears as she spoke.

Bai Lan was surprised, "Why?"

"Three girls...the husband's family doesn't want them."

This patriarchal society!Bai Lan felt helpless, "...What about you? You are the mother of the child, what do you think?"

"Of course I want to take them with me, but..." The woman looked at the other two girls and shook her head.

Dongdongdong~ There was a knock on the door, followed by a man's voice, "Yueniang?"

The woman panicked and hugged the baby tightly in her arms.

The little baby is happily eating peaches, but he doesn't know that he will soon leave his mother's warm embrace.

The other two little girls rushed to the door and opened it.

"father--"

"Daddy—"

A burly man with a horizontal scar on his forehead appeared at the door in a hurry.

Seeing the two daughters, he squatted down and hugged her, "Dad's precious girl, come, let Dad see you."

The expression on the woman's face was complicated and sad.

It's not easy for Bai Lan to intervene in this matter. She may give peaches to her children, but she can't do anything else.This world is different from the legal world she knows. In this world, women and children are men's belongings, and even if they are bought or sold, it is justified.This was something she was helpless and powerless, and the woman never asked her for help, let alone what she could do.

The woman left with the three children and the man.

Before leaving, thank Bai Lan again and again.

Bai Lan gave the twin girls the rest of the snacks in the bundle, glanced at the little baby again, sighed in her heart, wanted to say something, but finally said nothing, just said, take care.

Not long after, the inn clerk came to clean up the room.

Bai Lan took the opportunity to go downstairs.

It was already dark outside, and the downstairs lobby was already full of people, and there was not a single empty table at a glance.

Seeing that Bai Lan had come down, the shopkeeper asked, "Does the female guest want to eat?"

"Well. Is there any time?"

"Yes, yes, the table by the window is leaving, and the minibus will take the female guests there." The shopkeeper called the innkeeper.

At this moment, officers and soldiers broke into the inn suddenly.

Bai Lan stopped, and all the people who were eating and chatting also stopped, watching the sudden change.

The official held a piece of paper in his hand and said to the innkeeper: "Search warrant, search for fugitives."

The shopkeeper looked at the search warrant, confirmed it was correct, and said: "Yes, yes, please be gentle with the soldier." He gave the official a few pieces of silver.

The official put away the silver and said to the soldiers: "Okay, let's all go up, don't damage things with your hands and feet."

"Yes." Two teams of officers and soldiers rushed into the guest room, as well as the backyard kitchen.And the people in the lobby will not let it go, the official personally watched it one by one.Don't look at women, just look at men, especially big, strong men.

In the end, when the person he was looking for was not found, the official posted a portrait on the wall of the counter where the shopkeeper was located, and said to everyone: "Anyone who finds the trace of this man should immediately report to the government, and there will be a lot of rewards."
