Gu Songhan naturally thought of this as well. "I've already had Wen Dong keep a close eye on Ding Weiming. If it really is him, he wouldn't be completely without leaving any clues..."

Jiang Segu shook her head. If she hadn't been implicated in the murder case, she would naturally have been patient enough to wait.

"If Ding Weichang's death is really related to Ding Weiming, he certainly won't make any move at this juncture! Rather than waiting for him to come to us, we might as well lure him out!"

"You've made up your mind?"

"It's a bit risky, but I think it's worth a try!"

Tell me!

"You have Wen Dong kidnap Ding Weichang's son, and then ask Ding Weiming for a large ransom, preferably one that can cripple the Ding family!"

If Ding Weiming is willing to spend the money, then his suspicion is less! If Ding Weiming is unwilling to spend the money, then we have to think carefully: Ding Weiming murdered Ding Weichang for money!

However, the matter of Aunt Liu's death still needs further consideration..."

Following Jiang Segu's instructions, Gu Songhan sent a message to Wen Dong via carrier pigeon. Wen Dong acted swiftly and successfully captured Ding Weichang's son, Ding Yunhao, that very night.

Before dawn the next day, Xia was so shocked by the news that her son had been kidnapped that her illness was almost cured.

Upon hearing that the kidnappers were demanding 100,000 taels of silver as ransom, Xia immediately summoned people to sell off her shops and family property.

Upon learning this, Ding Weiming disregarded any taboos between uncle and sister-in-law and rushed into Xia's courtyard.

"Sister-in-law, please calm down. I'll send people to patrol right away. I'll make sure Yunhao isn't harmed in the slightest!"

Xia shook her head frantically, "Investigate? Where to investigate? Do you know who took Yunhao away? Yunhao is so young, I don't even know when he was taken away! I don't know how he is now! You want me to wait, but I don't want to wait a moment longer! Qiuyue, go and sell the shop quickly..."

"Sister-in-law! Even if we sell the shop, it won't be able to be sold in a short time!"

Xia's eyes were filled with the madness of losing her son. "How can it not sell! I'll drive the price down to the lowest possible level. I refuse to believe no one will buy it! If I don't have enough money, I still have hundreds of acres of fertile land, I still have jewelry, and I still have this courtyard... I don't want anything. I just want Yunhao to come back to me!"

"Qiuyue, take your men and go down first!"

After a moment's hesitation, Qiuyue finally led everyone away!

As soon as everyone left, Ding Weiming went up to Xia Shi and hugged her, "Awen, calm down! I won't let anything happen to Yunhao!"
