Chapter 161 Is he your mother’s family?

After hearing what Jiang Nanyuan said, Wu Yujian didn't care whether it would hurt Ding or not. He walked forward, picked her up, and took her back to the house.

Jiang Nanyuan followed behind him. After she entered the house, Wu Yujian consciously left the house and made room for Jiang Nanyuan.

Seeing Wu Yujian's cooperation, Jiang Nanyuan walked to Ding Shi's bedside and took her pulse.

It was just as she thought. All she had were skin injuries, which were a bit serious. However, as long as she used her medicine powder, applied it every day for a few days and took good care of herself, she would be fine.

She called Wu Lian and Wu Qianqian into the house, took out the medicine powder, and asked them to apply the powder on Ding's wound.

And explained some precautions.

After listening to this, the two nodded repeatedly. When Jiang Nanyuan was about to leave, they also wanted to follow her. Jiang Nanyuan turned around and looked at them in confusion and asked.

"Why are you following me when you're not at home taking care of your mother?"

Wu Lian and Wu Qianqian exchanged awkward glances. "Yinyin is still at Miss Jiang's house. We're thinking of bringing her back."

"Let Yinyin sleep there tonight, and come pick her up tomorrow to save you the trouble at night. You should take care of your mother first."

She is also injured now, so it is best not to walk around too much. She should mainly lie in bed and rest.

After hearing what Jiang Nanyuan said, Wu Qianqian and Wu Lian had no intention of following her back.

After the two of them and Wu Yujian repeatedly bowed and thanked Jiang Nanyuan, Bai Zhan and the others, they saw that Jiang Nanyuan and the others had already walked away, so they turned back.

On her way home, Jiang Nanyuan passed by the house where Xiao Yuchen lived and saw him standing alone in the yard, staring at the ground with his head down. She walked over curiously to take a look.

It turned out that he had been staring at the man on the ground, and that man was the one he had just caught.

She walked forward, stood beside Xiao Yuchen and asked doubtfully, "Achen, why did you bring him back?"

She wanted to ask on the way, but she was holding Wu Qianqian at that time so she didn't ask.

"Well, I have some suspicions and want to know the truth. Bai Zhan, go get me a basin of water and wake him up."

Bai Zhan immediately obeyed, brought a basin of cold water and poured it on the unconscious man on the ground.

Hu Yong, who was lying unconscious on the ground, was suddenly splashed with a basin of cold water and woke up from his shock.

"Who are you, the fool? You dare to throw water at me? Don't you want to live anymore?"

Hu Yong was not fully awake yet, but he was already furious, thinking that he was still in the Hu Mansion.

He also has an arrogant attitude.

"Open your dog eyes wide and see clearly where this is. And you'd better keep your mouth shut. If you say anything obscene to me again, watch out for your head."

When Bai Zhan heard that he had woken up and was talking so dirty, he walked up to him and slapped him twice, and pulled out the sword from his waist.

It rested on his head.

When he felt the cold touch on his neck, Hu Yong finally woke up.

He immediately got up from the ground and knelt down in the direction of Xiao Yuchen and Bai Zhan.

“Master, master, please spare my life. I know I was wrong and I will never do it again. I didn’t know that the young lady was yours.

Please let me go, okay? If you let me go, my family has a lot of silver, I will give you the silver, okay? "

Hu Yong was crying as he spoke, completely losing his previous arrogant expression.

Seeing his useless look, Xiao Yuchen's brows furrowed more and more.

"Get up, I want to ask you a few questions."

When Hu Yong heard Xiao Yuchen's words, he did not get up immediately, but turned his head to look at Bai Zhan.

After all, he was holding a sword in his hand. If he scratched his neck, the two would be in pieces.

Bai Zhan also retracted the sword in his hand and put it back into the scabbard.

Hu Yong then knelt down and moved to another direction, crawling towards Xiao Yuchen and speaking.

"Yes, sir, please tell me everything I know."

"Does your Hu family know Bai Ran?"

When Hu Yong heard the name Bai Ran, he was obviously stunned for a moment, then he shook his head frantically and spoke with evasive eyes.

“No…I don’t know…”

"It seems you still don't want to live. You're unwilling to tell the truth and are seeking death."

Xiao Yuchen just caught the moment when his eyes dodged. After he finished answering, he rushed in front of him, stretched out his hand to grab his neck, and lifted him up from the ground.

Hu Yong was so frightened by his sudden action that he rolled his eyes several times. He wanted to speak again, but he couldn't say anything because his neck was being strangled.

The feeling of suffocation became more and more obvious. He slapped Xiao Yuchen's arm with his hand and squeezed out a few words from his teeth, "I... I said..."

When Xiao Yuchen heard what he said, he loosened his hands in disgust, then took out a handkerchief from his arms and wiped the palm of his hand that had just pinched his neck.

"Speak now. If you say even one word that's not true, you won't have a chance."

Hu Yong was suddenly released, and he fell back to the ground, coughing violently a few times.

Xiao Yuchen had no patience and the expression on his face became increasingly gloomy.

Just when his patience was about to run out, Hu Yong on the ground finally recovered and knelt in front of Xiao Yuchen again.

“I said, I said.

We in the Hu family know Bai Ran. She is my second sister and my parents’ adopted daughter.”

Hearing him admit it, Xiao Yuchen's heart sank even more.

"Why did you say you didn't know him?"

Hu Yong coughed twice again and immediately replied, "My second sister is now married to the imperial palace in Beijing as a concubine. My father told us not to talk about her affairs with outsiders."

Hearing this, Xiao Yuchen remembered what his mother said to him before she disappeared.

She told herself that if she had the chance she must go back to Daniu Village to see her adoptive parents. Since she married into the palace, she could not leave the palace and could not go out to visit her adoptive parents.

This was also his mother's only wish before she disappeared. What he didn't expect was that the relative his mother was thinking about so much turned out to be such a person.

Judging from what Hu Yong did today, he is definitely not a good person.

"Bai Zhan, lock him up first, and then send someone to investigate what the Hu family has done over the years."

Until we figure out what exactly is going on, this person has to be kept.

Bai Zhan walked forward and knocked Hu Yong unconscious again amidst his terrified expression, then found a hemp rope and tied him up.

Then he dragged it to the woodshed and locked it up.

"Is he from your mother's family?"
