Chapter 159 Suspicion of the Hu Family
Wu Yinyin lowered her head and thought carefully. They went to the cloth shop at that time and wanted to buy two pieces of cloth.
"It's a cloth shop. I didn't look closely at the sign, but it's the third shop on the right on the main street as you enter the county town."
"Achen, why don't we go to the county town and see what's going on?"
Jiang Nanyuan thought that this matter could not be delayed any longer. If they were still alive, they could go and rescue them. At the same time, she was also curious about who that man was and why he did this.
"Well, if you just leave, will the child be okay? Will he make a fuss?"
When Jiang Nanyuan thought of this, she felt a little headache. In the past, whenever she left for a while, the two children would become noisy.
He just kept crying and was determined not to stop until he saw her.
"Let me try to talk to the two little guys."
Jiang Nanyuan felt that these two children were very clever and might be able to understand what she said.
She walked up to the two children. As soon as they saw Jiang Nanyuan, they stretched out their little hands and asked her to hold them. They were still babbling, and no one knew what they were saying.
"Baby, Mommy has to go out for a while. You guys stay at home with grandma. Mommy will be back soon, okay?"
Jiang Nanyuan held the two children in her arms and spoke to them in a negotiating tone.
She wasn't sure if the two children could understand her, so after she finished speaking, she kissed both of them on the cheek.
Then she handed the two children to Lin Zhixue and the others. She was surprised to find that the two children were being held by Lin Zhixue and the others.
If it were at this time before, the two children would definitely cry and make a fuss if they were taken away by Lin Zhixue and the others, but now the two children are not crying or making a fuss and are very well-behaved.
It seems that these two children really understand human nature and they can understand what Jiang Nanyuan said.
"Mom, please help me look after the two children tonight. Achen and I are going out for a while and we don't know when we will be back. Please help me take care of the two children to sleep first."
"Okay, okay, be careful when you go out at night. I'll help you look after the child, don't worry."
Lin Zhixue was also worried about the situation of Ding and Wu Qianqian.
Since Jiang Nanyuan and Xiao Yuchen planned to go to the county town, she would naturally help them look after the two children.
After hearing Lin Zhixue's agreement, she and Xiao Yuchen looked at each other, and they rode a horse together and headed quickly towards the county town.
In less than half an hour, they arrived outside the county town. The city gate was now closed, so the two of them walked to the side door of the city gate and climbed over the wall to go in.
As soon as they climbed over the wall, they saw Bai Zhan trying to go out, and Jiang Nanyuan immediately stopped him.
"Bai Zhan, come here. We are here."
Hearing Jiang Nanyuan's voice, he turned his head and saw that Jiang Nanyuan and Xiao Yuchen had come together. He immediately stepped forward and told them the situation.
"Master, Madam, I have already found out that the man who abducted Madam Ding and Miss Wu Er is called Hu Dong.
He is the son of a wealthy businessman in the county, and several shops in the county are owned by his family.
The shop that Mrs. Ding and Miss Wu entered today was also one of their shops.
I have already inquired with Lord Li. The Hu family is guilty of all kinds of evil in the county, and Li Deshun can't do anything about it.
It is said that the daughter of the Hu family married into the royal family as a concubine, so Li Deshun did not dare to offend her.
As long as they don’t cause a big fuss, we almost always turn a blind eye to what they do.”
Jiang Nanyuan and Xiao Yuchen listened to what Bai Zhan said.
They both frowned at the same time.
I didn't expect that such a cancer would still exist in this county.
As for Li Deshun, it can be said that he held this official position in vain.
But if you think about it carefully, it is indeed true. He is just a ninth-rank official, so it is normal for him to be afraid of losing his official hat.
"Where is their mansion? Take us there now."
Xiao Yuchen's tone was cold, and his heart skipped a beat when he heard the name of the Hu family.
This Hu family shouldn’t be the Hu family he knows, right?
It’s not certain yet, let’s go and see the situation first.
Bai Zhan had already investigated the location of the Hu family. He led the way, and Jiang Nanyuan and Xiao Yuchen followed behind.
Soon they arrived near Hu's house. Along the way, they found that this house was the largest one within a few miles.
It's a house with five courtyards. It seems that the owner is really rich.
"Bai Zhan, have you found out where they took Madam Ding and Miss Wu Er? Are they okay?"
This is what Jiang Nanyuan wants to know most at the moment.
Bai Zhan nodded, "The two of them were captured and taken to the Hu Mansion. Madam Ding is in trouble. She was beaten all over to protect Miss Wu Er.
Now she is dying, locked in the woodshed, and I don’t know where Miss Wu has been taken to.”
He had already arranged two people, intending to have them rescue Mrs. Ding first and then go find Miss Wu Er. He wanted to go back and report the matter to Xiao Yuchen.
But I didn’t expect Xiao Yuchen and Jiang Nanyuan to come in person.
When Jiang Nanyuan heard that someone had gone to rescue Mrs. Ding, she finally felt relieved. As long as the person was not dead, even if he was holding on to his last breath, she would be able to save him.
"Bai Zhan, let's split up and look around to see where my second young lady is now."
Bai Zhan nodded vigorously. He brought four people with him. Two of them went to rescue Mrs. Ding, and the other two were also looking for Miss Wu Er's location.
He immediately found the two men and went searching with them.
Jiang Nanyuan and Xiao Yuchen were also on the roof, checking each house below one by one.
However, Xiao Yuchen spoke very little along the way, and his face looked gloomy and terrifying.
Jiang Nanyuan stood beside him and could also feel a chill emanating from him.
I don’t know what’s wrong with him. Even if Miss Wu was arrested, he wouldn’t be so angry.
She took the initiative to walk forward, took Xiao Yuchen's hand, interlocked their fingers with his, and asked with concern.
"Achen, what's wrong with you? You've been in a bad mood since you came here. Did something happen?"
When Xiao Yuchen saw Jiang Nanyuan take the initiative to hold his hand, his frown relaxed a little and he explained to her.
"Nothing, I just remembered that my mother's adoptive parents also had the surname Hu, but I don't know if it's this Hu family.
If it were the Hu family, I wouldn't be able to stand it."
After all, it was such a coincidence that the Hu family also claimed that their daughter had married into the royal family as a concubine.
Didn't his mother marry into the royal family as a concubine?
When Jiang Nanyuan heard Xiao Yuchen say this, she immediately understood why Xiao Yuchen had such a stern face from the moment he arrived until now.
If they were really his mother's adoptive parents, and had done such a thing, Xiao Yuchen would probably want to kill them.
"You bastard, don't come over here. You beat my mother like that. I'm going to fight you."
