Chapter 294 Tie it back
As soon as the obstacle in Song Lao Er's mouth was removed, he shouted in a hoarse voice: "Yun'er, my dear niece! Save me, save me, they are bad people, they want to kill me, they want to steal the money, please save me and take me back!"
Song Liyun chuckled: "Song Defu, you abandoned your wife and son and ran away like this?"
Song Lao Er froze: "I'm just leaving first and waiting for them at home."
"That's fine, then you can go ahead and wait for them slowly!"
Song Liyun shook her head. She didn't feel like saying anything more to this heartless and ungrateful thing.
When Song Laoer arrives on the grassland, he will have plenty of time to repent for his sins.
Seeing that Song Liyun stopped talking, Zhao Tingduo signaled to Abu.
Abu stepped forward and quickly searched Song Laoer's body for the silver notes, then packed the silver and held it in his hand.
Song Lao Er was so frightened that he trembled all over and shouted hysterically: "I don't want to die, I'll give you all this money.
This bitch has money, ask her for it, ask her for it..."
Before Song Lao Er could finish his words, Abu slapped him in the face, silencing him. He cursed, "You bastard! You were just begging for help, and now you're betraying me! Young Master, how do we deal with this?"
"Knock him out and take him away!"
Zhao Tingduo said coldly.
If he hadn't agreed to take him to the grassland, he would have chopped off the coward's head on the spot.
However, you can take your time to clean up when you get to the grassland.
As soon as he finished speaking, Abu turned the knife around and hit Song Laoer on the back of his neck with the back of the knife.
Song Laoer's eyes were wide open and he fainted.
The next morning, Qili County.
Young Master Lin hurriedly climbed out of bed, his hair disheveled and his face grim. His usual calmness and elegance were gone. He stared fiercely at the people kneeling below and shouted, "I only asked you to catch a country bumpkin, and you lost him and can't even find him?"
The guard who had left the city yesterday afternoon had a pale face and lowered his head: "I left the city yesterday and chased all the way to Songfeng County. I rode on horseback all night and chased him all the way to Liuying, but I still couldn't find Song Laoer's carriage."
At this point, the guard looked up and said, "Sir, could it be that Song Lao Er didn't leave the city at all and is still hiding somewhere in the city? He can't just leave his wife and son and go away alone!"
Young Master Lin angrily pulled his clothes and sat back on the edge of the couch, feeling doubtful and indecisive.
Song Laoer's wife and son are still in the city. Could it really be just a bluff, and are they still in the city?
If he really left the city, it wouldn't make sense that he wouldn't have caught up by the time he reached Liuying, as that would have been halfway back.
He pondered for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "Find an opportunity to quietly capture that Gu and Song Xiaobao, and bring them back to the manor in the prefecture to work.
When Song Lao Er agrees to hand over the silver, we can let the two families meet again."
As he spoke, he stared fiercely at the guard: "Jiang Feng must be keeping an eye on the inn. If you don't do a good job, don't even think about coming back!"
The guard was sweating profusely. When he heard that he was going to capture Gu and Xiaobao, he immediately showed a relieved expression and nodded repeatedly: "Don't worry, sir, I will make sure that mother and child disappear without anyone noticing!"
In the inn, little Gu dragged Xiaobao into the Song Lizheng's room, slapping her hips and crying, "Uncle Lizheng, please go find the second son! He hasn't come back all night. He must have gone to some brothel and can't bear to leave, draining the family's money again."
Song Lizheng spat: "You took a few hundred taels of silver from Yun Yatou, and the second brother wants to go whoring and drinking, what does it have to do with me!"
Little Gu opened her mouth wide, her voice half-choked in her throat: "What hundreds of taels of silver? Is the second son really going to get the silver?"
She didn't say anything more to Song Lizheng, and turned around and ran to her room.
Song Xiaobao turned around and walked away in a daze, muttering, "It's just a hundred taels of silver! Song Zhenping has plenty. When Dad uses up the silver, Mom can always go back for more. Why is there such a rush?"
Last night, his mother scolded Song Liyun for half the night. He was so sleepy that his eyes were fighting each other, so he went back to his room to sleep for a while.
As soon as he stepped into the guest room, Song Xiaobao was shocked. His mother was like a madman, opening all the packages and shaking out several clothes on the ground.
Little Gu knelt beside the bed, her butt sticking out as she rummaged through the things, cursing: "Hundreds of taels of silver, hundreds of taels of silver, if the second brother dares to hide it, I will fight him to the death."
Her desire for money made her no longer afraid of Song Lao Er. She just wanted to find the silver while he was away.
Seeing the mess in the room, Song Xiaobao yawned and cursed inwardly, "Crazy woman!"
He had long been fed up with his parents' behavior, and this trip had brought him nothing but embarrassment.
Song Xiaobao was just about to lie down on the bed next to him for a while when he suddenly saw a bundle thrown aside.
Inside was a bag of beef jerky in a paper bag.
At this time, the paper bag had been torn open by Xiao Gu, and the beef jerky was scattered all over the floor.
This is the beef jerky that Dad said he would bring back for Grandma.
Song Xiaobao rubbed his stomach. He hadn't eaten anything since he got up this morning, so he might as well eat some beef jerky before going to bed.
He squatted on the ground, picking up pieces of dried meat one by one.
These beef jerky are very dry and hard, but when you chew them, they are spicy with a sweet aftertaste, making you want to eat more and more.
When Xiao Gu searched the entire room and still couldn't find the silver, she discovered that Song Xiaobao had already eaten most of the beef jerky.
She stamped her feet in anger and cursed, "Eat, eat, eat! You're as selfish as your damn father. This is for your grandma to take back."
He quickly put the beef jerky away, cursing, "That bitch Song Liyun, her own Tianxianglou only sells beef jerky, and she still asks her own uncle to pay for it.
"Half a pound of beef jerky costs a hundred coins. Why doesn't she just go and grab it? Bitch! Bitch!"
The more she scolded, the angrier she became, completely unaware that Song Xiaobao was lying on the couch next to her and snoring soundly.
After Song Lizheng scolded Xiao Gu and sent her away, he found Captain Jiang and wanted to go back with him.
Captain Jiang was also upset.
One of the three hangers-on sent by the Xue family in Qingping Town was injured. His fever has just subsided, but he is still confused and drowsy, and it doesn't look good.
Seeing that Song Li was about to leave, he could not wait any longer, so he hired a carriage, put the injured person on the carriage, and set off immediately with several people.
But Song Dekui refused to leave, and he was so angry these days.
Not only did he not want to see Captain Jiang and the Xue family's hangers-on, he even resented his own father and didn't want to get involved with them at all.
He just said that he still had an old mule in Baolinju, and he would not take the carriage, and would ride the mule back in a day.
Let’s talk about the other side.
After retrieving Song Lao Er, Zhao Tingduo and his men did not return to Baolinju, but instead took their men directly through Suijin Pass back to the grassland.
When Song Liyun returned home, Song Zhenping saw the real banknotes and silver, and he finally let go of his worries. He didn't ask any other questions.
As long as the money is returned, it doesn't matter to him whether that person is dead or alive.
In addition to silver, Zhao Tingduo also gave some medicine for injuries from the Di Lu tribe.
Falling off horses is a common occurrence for them, and the Di people also have some secret medicines for treating bone injuries.
When it was daybreak, Song Liyun went to invite Doctor Dai to start formal treatment.
What Song Zhenping didn't expect was that Song Liyun invited not only Doctor Dai back home, but also Yang Hua, who had proposed to cancel the engagement some time ago.
