Chapter 67: Have we not offended the Tai family before?
"I...my legs are just numb, I'm not injured!"
The young boy struggled to get up, and Tai Jizong quickly pulled him up.
Tai Jizong was very careful. He noticed that his niece was dry and clean, but the boy was covered in mud. Needless to say, the boy must have been holding his niece!
Without saying a word, he immediately carried the boy on his back and climbed up the broken ladder found by the tribesmen.
At this moment, Tai Jiye arrived with several officials and a group of servants.
"Master, Master! Woohoo, I finally found you! Let's go home quickly, Madam is vomiting blood. If you can't find Master, Madam will be in trouble too!" A middle-aged housekeeper rushed forward, grabbed the young boy and burst into tears, as if the sky had fallen.
The two servants next to him even hugged the boy's legs on both sides, fearing that he would disappear out of thin air again.
Today they followed the young master out onto the street and lost him!
The young boy originally wanted to thank the Tai family, but after hearing this, he no longer had time to think about it. He hurriedly bowed and ran away.
The Tai family didn't care. After all, the child was found, and nothing else mattered.
Besides, the boy has taken good care of his fat girl.
The officer felt a headache when he saw the bloodstains all over the yard.
Even if we want to punish the bad guys, we have to go through the government office to make a judgment, but these two are almost half dead...
At this moment, Tai Yongan brought two more tribesmen and carried back another fat man who was paralyzed with a fracture!
When the officers looked at the Tai family again, they were also a little frightened. They couldn't help but secretly reflect on whether there was anything wrong in their previous dealings with the Tai family. Otherwise, they always felt uneasy!
I originally thought they were just an ordinary farmer, but I didn’t expect them to be so cruel!
Although Tai Jiye felt relieved and believed that the three kidnappers deserved their punishment, he still put on a smile and asked the police how to deal with the matter later.
Fortunately, the housekeeper of the young boy's family stayed.
He was already grateful to the Tai family for saving his master, and injuring the kidnapper was also a way to avenge his master, so he took the responsibility.
"Oh, gentlemen, why are these three kidnappers carrying daggers? I'm afraid they're not simple. Could it be that they're bandits who came into the city to cause trouble and kidnapped two children, thus exposing themselves early?"
The steward's face was filled with worry and relief. "So, this is a lucky coincidence. It has averted even greater chaos and disaster! Gentlemen, please return and report. The county magistrate will definitely handle this impartially!"
The officers were so smart that they understood it immediately.
They just need to do their job, and there will naturally be someone with connections to the county magistrate.
So, several people immediately took the silver and arranged to take the three beggars back to the county government office, and find a doctor to treat them, just to make sure they didn't die.
After such a commotion, almost half of the county knew that the missing child had been found and the kidnapper had been caught.
As a result, every household felt relieved, and the boys and girls who were hugging their sides were sent back to sleep alone...
The Tai family gathered in the broken courtyard again, holding their bowls of porridge, drinking and chatting lively.
At that time, the old man's face was covered in blood and everyone was scared when they saw him, but now it has become a matter of pride.
"Sixth Uncle is so amazing, he can beat three people at once!"
"That's right, if it were me, I would be scared to death!"
"These three kidnappers really deserved it. I'm afraid they'll die before the verdict is announced!"
Some people also praised Tai Yongan and laughed.
"Yong'an is also very capable and a good fighter. If he hadn't ambushed at the window, I'm afraid that fat guy would have escaped."
"Yes, Sixth Uncle, Yongan is a very strong and courageous kid. It would be a shame to leave him at home farming."
Tai Yongan laughed, shaking his big head proudly, looking at his grandfather with shining eyes, hoping that his grandfather would agree to send him to the army.
But the old man didn't respond. He continued to puff on his empty pipe. There was a small stool in front of his legs, and Zhuzhu was sitting on it, eating egg custard from a bowl.
The little milk ball ate with relish, squinting his big eyes with joy from time to time, and didn't even notice that his face was covered with oil. He was so adorable.
Everyone was watching in confusion, not knowing whether to be happy that the girl was so generous or worried that she had become stupid again.
After all, such a big thing happened. She was kidnapped for most of the day and locked in a dark cellar, but she didn't feel scared at all...
The old man stroked his granddaughter's soft hair and asked softly, "Zhuzhu, are you full? Do you want another bowl?"
Zhuzhu shook her little head and responded in a baby voice, "No, Grandpa! Zhuzhu wants to eat meat buns!"
After saying that, she patted the sesame balls at her feet with her chubby little hands and added a sentence in a serious manner.
"Sesame Ball said he wants to eat it too!"
Everyone laughed even louder after hearing this and were no longer worried.
This child has a greedy heart, and this time it was really thanks to her greed that when she was kidnapped, she had a bun in her hand, otherwise it would have been difficult to find it back!
The old man was also upset and hot in his heart. He promised his granddaughter repeatedly, "Buy it. Grandpa will buy you a basket tomorrow so that you can eat as much sesame balls as you want!"
Liu Dongniang, who rarely showed off her talent, shouted, "Second Aunt, go learn how to make dumplings. I'll steam them for you at home from now on. We won't go into the city anymore! There are too many bad people in the city!"
Yang Lihua had no idea how many tears she had shed, and she nodded vigorously.
I must keep a good eye on my daughter in the future and try not to go into the city. It’s safest to keep her at home!
After dinner, everyone huddled together and went to bed.
There were more than a dozen people in the Tai family sleeping on one kang, so naturally they couldn't sleep well. They could only take a nap while sitting or lying down.
