Manor Romance

Chapter 188 The Little Mute

"It seems to be a government agency in the past. There are many departments in it, similar to those research institutes and comprehensive institutions now. I don't know why it was abandoned, and it has not been remodeled since it was empty."

"The temple was only moved in there ten years ago. I remember that year my dad had a bad cough, and seeing a doctor didn't help. My mother went to this temple to pray for blessings, and the result was really good. After that, my family every year I would go there to burn incense and pray for blessings, and I also went there after Xiao Nianen was born, and it was very effective, so the incense has always been good."

"Yes, I almost forgot about it. If you want to find out accurate information, you can go to those old stores in the north to inquire. Those stores have been open for many years, and they must know more than us."

Lin Changqing and his wife told each other what they knew, but there was not much useful information. If you want to understand more deeply, you can only do what they said.

The matter had a clue, and then everyone talked about many topics. Lin Changqing pulled Yunli to talk about this and that, and when Xiao Nianen was sleeping soundly in Lu Ci's arms, everyone realized that it was getting late, so they went to rest, and Yunli Li and Lu Ci's room, Mrs. Lin, had been prepared for them a long time ago. It was the same room that Yunli lived in before. It was clean and simple, and nothing had changed.

Unable to obtain fake documents for a while, Yunli and Lu Ci started their leisure travel life. In the original itinerary plan, after they searched for Mo Lao's whereabouts, they set aside two days to visit Myanmar. Now Myanmar Changing to Laos does not make much difference, and there are many tourist attractions on Lambert Street. Last year, Yunli only visited a small part of it. This time, I can just go to other places to see.

The sports car has already been sent to find someone to help with the formalities. In order not to cause unnecessary trouble to Lin Changqing's family, Yunli and Lu Ci are very careful to ensure that they will not be discovered by others before entering or leaving. After all, they are considered illegal immigrants now. If they are found out, their family may be implicated.

While playing, the two also inquired about the previous situation of the research institute, but no one knew the actual inside story, mostly gossip, without any reliable basis, and of little reference value, but Mr. Mo actually put such an important thing Stored there, there must be many secrets in this place, but they can't find out now.

Although they can't go back to the manor for the time being, as long as they have the Internet, they can grasp the big and small things in the manor. Let Xu Xiangjiao handle the emails on her behalf. The second phase of the Jifang Garden, which Lu Ci cares about the most, is progressing well, so she can also have a good time here with peace of mind.

In the past, she wandered around with that family, and would change places to settle every once in a while. Lu Ci couldn't tell what travel was and what was stability. Now, only when she was with Yunli did she feel that these words really appeared. in her life.

After waiting for several days, the passport issue was finally resolved, but it can only be done on the Lao side, that is to say, even if they can use this fake passport to fool them back to the country, they can’t count on buying tickets by car after returning. So after going back, the two of them had to find a way to get back to the manor by themselves.

This matter is not a big problem. As for the sports car, it will take some time. The other party offered 20 yuan and Yunli paid it off in one go. After everything is done, someone will deliver the car to the door. do not worry.

When leaving, Lin Changqing deliberately borrowed a car from a friend, and the family took Yunli and Lu Ci directly to the border entrance and exit hall. He felt relieved when he saw that they had successfully completed the border crossing procedures, and said to wait for Xiao Nian When En grows up, their family will definitely visit the two at Spotted Deer Manor, and they also told him not to forget to inform him if the two get married.

Finally back in China, after this tortuous and bizarre journey, both of them were eager to return home. They couldn't get on the long-distance express train, so they had to go outside to take a temporary car to return, but when they were waiting for the bus outside the immigration hall, The two unexpectedly had different opinions on one matter, and it was rare for each other to give in. In the end, Yun Li took a step back, and the two stayed where they were and did not immediately set off for the return trip.

"Waiting like this is not an option. Let's hand her over to the staff when we go back. This kind of thing is not uncommon in border areas, and it is best to hand it over to the corresponding department." The two stood under the awning of a small station, Yun Li still couldn't help but persuade Lu Ci.

"Wait a little longer, you scared her when you said you would hand her over to someone else, her parents must be looking for her everywhere, and this place is some distance from the border hall, what if his parents come to find her. "Lu Ci said unyieldingly.

"But she didn't say a word, and she didn't have any identity information on her body. If that happened to her, we would have to send her to the relevant institutions in the end. This is the best choice for her." Yun Li explained again.

After hearing this, Lu Ci kept his mouth shut, and Yun Li couldn't stand her trick the most, so he immediately admitted his mistake and apologized, and the two continued to wait at this small station.Yunli was bored, so he looked through his backpack for the gadgets he had bought from Lambert Street in the past few days. They were all very collectible antiques, and one of the inkstones was worth as much as the price he paid for the sports car he had delivered to enter the customs. The handling fee, and this inkstone only cost him less than 1000 yuan, so this time it was a rewarding experience.

After reading about the same, he squatted down and stared at the guy who interrupted their return trip plan, and said maliciously: "Do you think she is dumb? I think she can understand our words, but she keeps talking." If you don’t say anything, you’re probably dumb.”

"It's normal, don't scare her, your parents will come to pick you up soon, let's sit down for a while, if you are hungry, remember to tell your sister, okay?" Lu Ci also squatted down and stretched out his hand. He poked Yunli's forehead, and then comforted the little girl in front of him.

The little girl was only four years old, and she was still in kindergarten. She had short brown hair, which was similar to Lu Ci's hairstyle. She was petite, with a round face, big and bright black eyes, and was very cute. It just doesn't have the lively smile that ordinary children should have, and looks like they are about to cry at any time.

She was wearing a denim dress and carrying a small backpack. There was nothing in it except two clothes and a water bottle. There were no clues to her identity, which made the two of them helpless. I can only wait here with her.

About two hours ago, they were waiting for the bus here, but they found this little girl behind the stop sign. At that time, there was no one around. She probably got lost with her parents, so she just squatted there without crying or fussing. Lu Ci found that When she arrived, she went up to ask about the situation, but no matter how the two coaxed her, she didn't say a word, she couldn't even shake her head or nod, she couldn't communicate at all.

But as soon as Yunli said that she would send her to the border hall, she grabbed Lu Ci's clothes tightly, as if she wanted to follow her, no matter how much the two persuaded her, she still followed Lu Ci. Behind him, even when he sat down, he had to hold Lu Ci's hand. Lu Ci was soft-hearted and couldn't see people suffering, especially for such a small child, so he waited here with her.

This border entrance and exit is a relatively remote one nearby. There are very few people, and the bus has to wait for a long time before there is a bus. Most of the vehicles passing by are transported at the border. Otherwise, they would not choose this entrance to transit. Check looser so that she can be fooled. The two waited from morning to noon, but no one came to take her back. It seems that the situation is not as simple as getting lost.

In the end, even Lu Ci couldn't wait any longer, but she insisted on not sending the little girl to the agency, so the two had no choice but to buy paper, pens and double-sided tape, and posted a missing person notice and left their contact information near the small station. , if the little girl's parents saw it, they would know where to take her back, and the two of them took the little girl back to the manor together.

Yunli grew up in an orphanage, so he knew very well that if the little girl was abandoned by her parents, then there were probably only two paths for her future, one was to be sent to an orphanage with a vacant place to be raised, just like him. , and not necessarily in the nearby area, and it is not surprising to be sent to other places. At such a young age, without parents and relatives around, the road of life will definitely be much more difficult than other children.

Another way is to be adopted by capable and willing families. There should be many families willing to adopt a cute little girl like her.This sounds good, but it’s actually not much better than living in an orphanage. After all, she is already four years old and has formed her own way of thinking. It is not easy to accept a new family, and most of these children will suffer psychological shadows. This is a wound that will never heal in a lifetime.

But taking her back to the manor is not a long-term solution. Even if he has the ability to provide her with any living resources, what the little girl needs most is the company of her parents. This cannot be replaced by anything. He made up his mind that if the little girl Her parents didn't come to pick her up in the end, so he had no choice but to persuade Lu Ci to let go, and it would be safest to send her to an orphanage.

In order to get back to the manor as soon as possible, they bought lunch along the way and ate it on the way, then headed towards Linshan County in a taxi. Following behind Lu Ci, no matter where the two of them took her, sometimes she would sneak a peek at Yunli with her eyes open. It is curiosity and fear.

It was already evening when they returned to the manor, just in time for everyone to finish work. Seeing that the two of them came back with a little girl, each of them had different expressions on their faces, and they all gathered around asking questions. Ren had no choice but to briefly explain, but still couldn't calm everyone's curiosity, and after a long time of disturbance, he "broke through" and returned to the bamboo building.
