Xianggui

Chapter 133 Captured

Ding Xiang has a very good memory in her previous life, because she learned to draw and is especially good at observing the surrounding things, and she can remember the people and things she has noticed very firmly.

This time Ding Xiang didn't dare to hide his clumsiness, and the painting was very similar, pointing to the notch of the man's right ear and emphasizing it again.

She is not very used to drawing with a brush, but would do better with a hard pen.

Seeing the two lifelike heads on the paper, the eyes of Ding Zhao and the others were full of surprise, which was much better than the head portraits drawn by yamen painters.They knew that Ding Xiang was good at painting, but they didn't expect it to be so good.

Most people can't reach this level even if they practice for a lifetime.Ding Lichun and Ding Lilai are one of these "ordinary people", and Ding Zhao and Ding Liren will not be able to draw so well even after five years of hard work.

The most important thing is that Ding Xiang remembered so clearly just by looking at those two people.

Ding Zhao instructed, "Xiangxiang has this painting skill, don't tell it, and Xiangxiang will hide his clumsiness too. Tomorrow I will quietly take this painting to the county magistrate, tell me that I painted it, and beg him not to tell us about it. With this portrait, and knowing that the man is missing a piece of ear, he will definitely catch that group of people."

Mrs. Zhang wants to carry Ding Xiang to her kang to rest.

Ding Xiang is unwilling, she wants to find the approximate location of the two traffickers in a dream.

"I'm grown up and I need to sleep by myself."

Mrs. Zhang was very stubborn this time, so she took Ding Xiang to her room and sat beside her.

Mrs. Zhang was terrified. She almost lost her daughter. She was snatched away by those villains. She didn't know how much she would suffer.

I need to watch my daughter more closely in the future.

Ding Liren and Ding Lilai were also frightened, and they both sat on the kang to accompany their sister.

Ding Xiang was very depressed.What I thought was an ordinary day turned out to be like this.I thought Mrs. Zhang was too careful before, but I didn't expect that the old woman was probably a human trafficker.

Ding Zhuang went home after dinner.

Hearing this incident, he was furious and gave Ding Zhao and Ding Lichun two big slaps each.

"Useless things, didn't you say you would look after Xiangxiang?"

Ding Zhao said, "We were careless..."

He took out two more pictures and talked about the scene outside the hut.

Ding Zhuang was very satisfied with Zhang's performance, and rewarded Zhang with 50 taels of silver, and asked her to buy some good jewelry.

Early the next morning, Ding Zhao went to the county town with two paintings.

At noon Ding Zhao came back and said that Linshui County had lost three little girls aged three to six within one month, all of whom were beautiful, smart, and daughters of good families.

This was reported, and I don’t know how many people have not reported.

This is a crime committed by a gang. Last year, many beautiful girls were abducted in North Hebei Province, but no one has been caught in North Hebei Province.

The county magistrate He was struggling to find a way to arrest him, and he was very happy to see the portrait.Said not to scare the snake for the time being, first patrol secretly, the Lantern Festival is coming, that group will definitely take action.If this case is solved, Ding Zhao will be rewarded.

He also promised not to tell the Ding family.

Magistrate He was quite surprised by these two pictures, "The painters in the yamen can't draw so well, did you draw it?"

Ding Zhao said with a smile, "I did well in my studies when I was young, but I was forced to give up the scientific examination only because my father offended someone and was framed, and there was no guarantee..."

Magistrate He also heard about that incident.He regretted very much, "Those old things with blind eyes have delayed your future and caused the court to lose a talent."

If Ding's family hadn't opened an iron shop, he would have recruited Ding Zhao into the Yamen as a clerk.

On the tenth day of the first lunar month, the weather warmed up.

On this day, Ding Lichun had to leave home to go to the military camp for his future.The sister's matter has not been resolved, and he wants to postpone his departure for a few days.

Ding Zhuang disagreed, "You can't solve the problem if you stay at home. With me and your father here, Xiangxiang will be fine."

At the end of the hour, Dingshan's family, Ding Li and Ding Youcai, as well as some close relatives and neighbors all came to the second room of Ding's family, and the group sent Ding Lichun with their bags to the entrance of the village.

Ding Xiang and Zhang Shi both cried.

More than 600 miles, not too far in the previous life, it can be reached in three hours by car.But in this era, it's far away, and it's normal not to see each other for a year or two.

Ding Lichun picked Ding Xiang up and wiped her tears, knelt down and kowtowed to the elder, touched the corners of the two younger brothers to let them honor the elder and protect the younger sister, then turned his head and strode away.

He didn't want his father and Yang Hu to send him by ox cart, but went to Jiaozhou on foot.

Walk during the day and rest at night, walk [-] to [-] miles a day, and you can go there in six to eight days.

The 14-year-old boy entered the workplace for the second time.

His footsteps are firm and light, and he rushes forward with a dream.

The tall and muscular figure got farther and farther away, disappearing into the morning glow in front of him.

Ding Xiang is both reluctant and happy for her elder brother.I had this once in my previous life, the day I left home to report to the university.

The university is in this city, and my grandma took a taxi with her.

When she went there, she was full of pride, as if the whole world belonged to her.

When I arrived at the dormitory, I saw that the fewest other students were sent by their parents, and the most exaggerated ones even came to grandparents, grandparents, aunts and uncles.

She will never forget the pitiful look of an old lady who took her hand and praised her a few words.

At that moment, her heart was painfully painful, and she hated her parents for ignoring her even more.

In this life, the relatives of this family doubled up the love that was missing in the previous life.

The faces of the parents in the previous life are becoming more and more blurred, and there is no hatred or resentment towards them... Forgetting is the best relief and beginning.

On the morning of the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, Ding Zhao went to the county government again.

He went to find out if anyone had been caught last night.

Come back in the afternoon with a look of excitement.

Ding Zhuang asked, "Did you really catch those people, so quickly?"

Ding Zhao smiled and said, "I really caught it. I heard people talking about it as soon as I entered the county seat. I went to the yamen to find out more about it. They were arrested at the Lantern Festival yesterday, and a total of 18 people were arrested. The old woman in charge was the old woman, known as 'Aunt Jin'. The second in charge was the one with the missing earlobe, known as 'Second Ji'. It's a pity that Aunt Jin was cunning and ran away early when she saw the clue.

"Last night interrogation, this is a major cross-provincial case. For the young girls who are stolen, the top ones will be sold to several thin horse private houses in Yangzhou for a high price of 300 to 50 taels, and the slightly worse ones will be sold to brothels for 100 to [-] taels.

"The gang was caught in Huizhou for more than a year, but we caught it in a month here. Although a big fish escaped, the rest were all caught. The five little girls were all rescued before they were sent away.

"Their family members went to kowtow in front of the county government office and shouted for Mr. Qingtian. The county magistrate has made great contributions this time, and he may be able to be promoted based on his political achievements. He was very happy and rewarded me with ten taels of silver, saying that there will be more rewards when all the cases are settled."

Ding Zhao didn't care about the little money, and if he brought Huazi who missed his daughter to justice, her daughter would be safe.Although Aunt Jin ran away, her portraits were posted everywhere. She definitely didn't dare to stay in Linshui County, or even in Jiaodong Province.
