Chapter 216 Seeking help, Mu Chunhua enters and leaves the 4th courtyard

So, the godmother hurried to the Mu family and knocked gently on the gate. When the gate slowly opened, the godmother was surprised to find that it was Mu Chunhua herself who was standing at the door with her son in her arms.

At this moment, the godmother had no time to appreciate the little guy's particularly handsome and cute appearance today.

You know, both his parents are outstanding in appearance, so the little guy is naturally cute and lovable. Moreover, on weekdays, this little guy is both well-behaved and obedient, and very sensible. These advantages undoubtedly add more charm to him.

Without giving it time to think, the godmother told Yu Muchunhua the purpose of her visit and said anxiously, "Chunhua! Come with me without delay. Something bad has happened to Chunsheng!"

Hearing this, Mu Chunhua's heart suddenly tightened, and her legs began to weaken involuntarily, fearing that she would accidentally fall to the ground and hurt her son. She reached out a hand in panic and tightly grasped the door frame beside her, trying to steady her body.

She had been a little worried about Hou Jie these days, and when she heard these words, her heart was suddenly in turmoil.

At this moment, he was even more confused, and asked in fear and anxiety:

"Godmother, please don't scare me! It's only been a few days! How could anything happen to him? Tell me quickly, what happened to my husband? Is he okay?"

The godmother did not explain in detail, but just kept urging Mu Chunhua, anxiously saying;

"Chunhua, you should come with me! You can go and take a look. Chunsheng is drunk every day. I can't persuade him at all. You have to come for this matter."

Mu Chunhua had no time to think more, she just agreed hastily, then briefly explained her whereabouts to her neighbors, and then closed the gate.

He responded casually: "Oh! Oh! I'll leave right away."

At this moment, Mu Chunhua tightly hugged her three-year-old son, patted the child's back gently, and comforted him softly, as if this little body was the source of all her strength.

She was extremely worried and murmured to herself in panic, "Wending, your father will be fine. Please pray to the Buddha to keep him safe."

After stepping out of the alley, she ignored the looks of the people around her and stopped two rickshaws without hesitation. One of them was carrying her godmother, and the other was carrying herself and her young son. They rushed towards No. 95 Nanluoguxiang at lightning speed.

"Baby, let's go find daddy together. God will surely protect him and keep him safe!" She lowered her head and spoke softly to the child in her arms.

Although his words revealed great resolve, they could not conceal the endless worry and fear in his heart.

Along the way, Mu Chunhua's thoughts were like a ball of tangled silk threads, intertwined and entangled in her heart, and all kinds of possible situations kept appearing in her mind.

She was worried that her husband would suddenly fall ill like the characters in the TV series, or meet with an accident at work, or even worse, she would receive bad news that her husband had passed away. Each possibility was like a sharp blade, cutting her fragile heartstrings.

Although she seemed calm on the surface, her heart was as turbulent as an agitated ocean, and every minute and every second seemed particularly long and difficult.

However, no matter how turbulent her heart was, she understood that she had to stay strong, for her children and for the unknown ending that might be waiting for her.

As soon as the two stepped into the gate of the courtyard, they saw the three aunts and several other aunts standing at the door.

Just then, they noticed that the godmother was leading a pretty young woman hurriedly towards the backyard, and in her arms she was holding a chubby, round little guy, who looked very cute and adorable.

When these gossiping women saw this scene, they immediately became excited and gathered together, whispering in low voices.

One of them exclaimed: "Oh my, look, whose new bride is this? She is so pretty. And look at the little baby in her arms, she is also pretty and adorable!"

Another person echoed, "That's right, and she was brought here by an old lady herself. She must be the one that Hou Jie divorced. Look at her clothes and her graceful figure. She looks like a typical young lady. Who would have thought that Chunsheng's wife's family was so wealthy and she was so beautiful."

Someone nearby interrupted, "That's right! How did she grow up like this? Especially that slender waist, it's so slender! How did she grow up like that? If I could have such beauty, maybe I could become a lady."

"There are not many pretty girls like this in the city. She is a top-notch beauty."

When the other people around heard this, they all looked at him with envy and jealousy.

Suddenly, someone else sighed: "Hey, look! The dress she's wearing alone is probably worth more than two hundred yuan. It's made of top-quality silk, just as gorgeous as the ones worn by the Qingyi on the stage."

When everyone heard this, they were all amazed, their eyes full of envy.

Xu Damao's mother had good eyesight. After all, he worked as a servant in Lou Bancheng's family. He explained, "I know what this dress is. It's called a formal dress. The daughters and wives of wealthy families all wear it. But the style is more novel, so it must be custom-made. It's more expensive than ordinary clothes. One dress costs several months' salary."

After passing through the spacious and bright middle courtyard, the godmother and Mu Chunhua walked side by side and slowly entered the backyard. At this moment, Xu Damao's mother was sitting in the yard. She was a person with sharp eyes and strong observation ability.

When she caught a glimpse of the beautiful woman following closely behind her godmother, her eyes lit up instantly, as if she had discovered some rare treasure.

She just hurriedly talked to several other old ladies in the yard, then ran briskly towards her godmother, her face full of irrepressible curiosity, obviously wanting to find out some news about this beauty from her godmother.

The others naturally followed suit and went to the backyard to watch the fun.

Mu Chunhua just glanced at Xu Damao's mother indifferently and then ignored her.

But Xu Damao's mother didn't mind at all, and continued to look up and down the unfamiliar face in front of her with great interest. The more she looked, the more she was amazed. Finally, she couldn't hold back her doubts and asked, "Auntie, please tell me, who is this girl? She is so beautiful!"
