Su Li shook her head and refused. “There’s no need. I’m already very satisfied to have a sip of water. I still have to go back and serve my mother-in-law, who can’t take care of herself. If I’m not at home, she’ll probably have already pooped and peed on herself. I have to hurry up and return home to care for her.”

The woman patted Su Li’s hand to express her sympathy. “It’s been hard on you!”

The woman thought to herself that there were not many people like this nowadays. It was fine that her man was an invalid, but her mother-in-law was also useless. She still had to serve the both of them and she did not know when such a life would end!

If it were her, she would have run away long ago!

Su Li shook her head with a bitter smile. “As long as they’re fine, I won’t feel bitter!”

Su Li was disgusted by her own words. If not for the fact that the time and place were wrong, she would have shivered.

“Sister, I’ll get going first. Thank you for the water,” Su Li said.

The woman shook her head and said, “There’s no need to thank me. If there’s a chance in the future, let’s sit down and have a good chat.”

The woman sympathized with this pitiful person. She felt that she was a savior and would definitely be able to enlighten Su Li.

Su Li nodded slightly at the woman before turning to leave.

The woman looked at Su Li’s back sympathetically and sighed before returning to her room.

Su Li walked to the corner and lowered her head to look at the location before walking towards the house.

The door of the house was tightly shut, and there was no sound from inside.

Su Li had observed the place beforehand. She did not enter through the door. Instead, she took a detour to the back door. She jumped lightly and grabbed the wall. Then, she used force to reach the wall.

Su Li jumped down from the wall. Her movements were very light, so she didn’t alarm the people in the house.

Su Li had just raised her foot when she heard a click.

She looked down and saw that she had broken a branch.

Su Li: “…” What a coincidence!

“Why do I hear something outside?” A male voice came from inside the house.

When Su Li heard this, she quickly found a place to hide. At this moment, she was very glad that these people did not have a dog. Otherwise, she would definitely be exposed.

“Hurry up and go out to take a look. Don’t let anyone sneak in,” a woman said.

When Su Li heard this voice, she instantly felt that it was extremely familiar. Wasn’t this the woman they had met this morning?

She had a deep impression of that woman. At that time, she thought that she looked gentle and elegant. One really could not judge a book by its cover. Now, she was 100% sure that they were in cahoots.

Soon, a man walked out. He walked around the courtyard and looked at the door latch. After confirming that there was no problem, he entered the house.

“There’s no one out there!”

“That’s good. If someone comes in, we’ll all die.”

“Look at you. Who else can come in? This village belongs to us.”

The woman said, “Don’t let your guard down. I don’t think that woman will let it go so easily today. We have to quickly get rid of that little brat!”

A woman’s intuition told her that Su Li was different from others. When such a thing happened, others might be out of their wits, but she felt that Su Li would definitely do everything she could to find the child.

When the man heard the woman’s words, he burst into laughter. “So what if she doesn’t give up? Can she still find her way here?”

He didn’t take Su Li seriously at all. What could a woman do? Just rely on those people from the government? Don’t even dream about it.

It had been so many years, but they had never seen the officials catch them.

The corners of Su Li’s lips twitched when she heard their conversation, and she let them be smug for a while.

“What should we do with those brats? Should we hurry up and make a move? The other party is very anxious now. We can take the opportunity to ask for a good price,” the man spoke again.

If they hadn’t seen this business opportunity, they wouldn’t have rushed to snatch people on the street. After all, it was very easy to be caught doing such a thing in broad daylight. The risk was too high!

The woman shook her head and said, “There’s no hurry. We’ll stay here for the next two days. We’ll talk about it after a few days!”

“Why?” The man didn’t understand.

The woman explained, “The people in Guandu will definitely investigate strictly now. After a few days, everyone will gradually forget about this matter.

At that time, we can take action!”

“But we can’t keep them like this!” The man’s tone was a little impatient.

Although the children were young, each of them could eat two big bowls of white rice. If it wasn’t for the fact that he didn’t want the prices of these children to drop, he wouldn’t bear to let them eat so well.

The woman was unmoved and said, “It’s definitely not wrong to listen to me. I have a bad feeling in my heart, so it’s better to wait.”

When Su Li heard their discussion, the corners of her lips twitched in mockery. They even wanted to sell their children. She would let them have a taste of what it was like to be a woman in a brothel later.

After talking for a long time in the room, Su Li gradually became impatient. She took out the knockout powder from her pocket and walked to the room they were in. She took it out of the tube and used it to send the knockout powder into the room.

She had increased the dosage of this knockout powder. It was not a problem to knock out a pig, let alone these two weak people.

The drug immediately took effect after entering the room. The people in the room gradually felt that something was wrong. They stood up and walked out of the room, but before they could take two steps, they felt dizzy.

Bang! The people in the room fell to the ground.

Su Li was not in a hurry to enter. Instead, she went to the other rooms in this house. She searched the entire house, but she could not find He Qingmu.

Could it be in that room?

Su Li looked at the main room. The knockout powder had almost dissipated, so she strolled over.

Pushing open the door, a man and a woman fell to the ground.

Su Li didn’t even look at them as she rummaged through the house!

How could there be no one!

Where exactly did they hide them?

Su Li kicked them and tied them up to prevent them from suddenly waking up. Although she was very confident in her medicine, it was better to be careful.

From their conversation just now, Su Li felt that He Qingmu must still be in this house or in this village.

Apart from houses, where else could people be hidden?

Su Li thought for a moment and suddenly thought of a place!

The cellar!

How could she have forgotten that there was such a thing? Many commoners had cellars in their houses. Everyone would use the cellars to store some food for the winter or store things that they had to keep during the summer.. The cellars were spring all year round, so they did not have to worry about things spoiling
