Chapter 212 Rescue
The old beggar next to him scolded, "Why are you stealing again?"
The little beggar trembled: "I'm hungry..."
"How much silver was originally in it?" Song Ruize asked.
The little beggar didn't say anything. The beggar next to him said, "Two pieces of silver, plus thirty copper coins."
"Where's the money?" asked the old beggar.
The little beggar took it out of his arms and handed it over sobbing.
Song Ruize took the money, put it into his pocket, then took out a piece of change from his pocket and threw it to the little beggar.
The little beggar's eyes were full of light: "Thank you, sir."
Song Ruize stuffed the purse into his arms, said a few words to the leader of the beggars, and turned to leave.
While Song Ruize was looking for someone in the rain, Qin Huiyin came out of the shower. Li Taohua was waiting for her in the room, and when she saw her come out, she took a dry towel and twisted her hair.
"Where is my brother?" Qin Huiyin asked.
"He said there was something going on at the dam, so he'll go back and take care of it and come back later."
"Sister Luwu hasn't come back yet?"
"I've sent someone to look for him, don't worry." Li Taohua said.
The more Qin Huiyin thought about it, the more worried she became, but Li Taohua forced her not to move and had already sent people to look for her. It was useless for her to be anxious and she still had to wait for news.
As the sky was getting darker, the men who were sent out came back one after another, but still hadn't brought back Tang Luwu.
Gong Qi from the roast duck restaurant came with an umbrella. When he stopped at the door, the waiter came to greet him.
He handed the umbrella to the waiter, strode in, and said to Qin Huiyin and others, "Is your Miss Tang not back yet?"
"Do you know where she is?"
"I just received payment for the goods and rushed back from outside the city. When I passed by the dilapidated temple, I saw many people. I squeezed in and saw your Miss Tang inside, as well as many government officials."
"Let's go and take a look." Li Taohua said.
"Our carriage is outside and will give you a ride."
Tang Dafu and his wife and Qin Huiyin got on Gong Qi's carriage and rushed to the dilapidated temple he had just passed. When they got there, they found that it was filled with people as he had said.
They squeezed into the crowd, looking for Tang Luwu among the crowd.
Tang Luwu wrapped herself in clothes, snuggled tightly in Tang Yichen's arms, and cried suppressedly.
"Sister Luwu."
Tang Luwu heard their voices and turned around. When she saw Qin Huiyin and others, she cried and threw herself into Qin Huiyin's arms.
"Yinyin, I almost died just now."
"What exactly happened?" Li Taohua asked.
"I wanted to give my brother an umbrella, but he walked too fast, so I had to run faster to catch up. Just as I reached the corner, someone knocked me out, and I woke up in a ruined temple."
"Is it that crazy woman Li Erniu?"
"It's her." Tang Luwu nodded. "She's crazy, but she still recognizes people in our family. She said that she became like this because of people in our family, and she wants to get rid of them one by one. I'm the dumbest and easiest to deceive, so I'm her first target. She has a knife in her hand, and she wants to kill me..."
"Where's that crazy woman?"
"She heard someone outside and ran away. The guy from the Song family led people to chase her, but we don't know if we can catch up with him."
Tang Dafu looked at Tang Yichen: "Boss, when did you come?"
"The shop assistant came to look for me, and I learned that Lvwu had gone out and had not returned yet. I followed him to look for her, and met Song Ruize. He said that his people had found Lvwu, so I rushed over to see. When we came in, Li Erniu had already run out the back door. I stayed to take care of Lvwu, and he led his people to chase after her."
Just as Tang Yichen finished speaking, Song Ruize came back with his men, escorting Li Erniu.
Li Erniu was disheveled, talking nonsense, and started to act crazy again.
"Brother, I heard that she had a knife in her hand, are you okay?" Qin Huiyin stepped forward.
"It's okay." Song Ruize pulled out a dagger from his waist. "This is her murder weapon."
"Brother Song, thank you so much for what you did just now." Tang Luwu came forward to express her gratitude.
There was a wound on Tang Luwu's neck, it was not deep and the bleeding had stopped.
Song Ruize said calmly: "Don't thank me, thank Yinyin instead. I helped her because I didn't want her to be sad."
Tang Yichen cupped his hands and saluted: "Thank you."
Song Ruize raised his eyebrows, said nothing, and accepted his thank you gift.
Captain Feng came over and said to Song Ruize, "You are really my lucky star. You always help me achieve merit."
"Is there any thank you gift?"
"I'll treat you to a drink tonight."
"Ahem..." Song Ruize coughed lightly, "I don't drink."
Captain Feng glanced at Qin Huiyin and suddenly realized: "Yes, you can't drink, you are still young!"
"Brother Feng, what will happen to her?" Qin Huiyin murmured in the direction of Li Erniu.
"For attempted murder, sentence him to exile!" said Captain Feng.
"Sir, she is not an attempted murderer, but a murderer." Li Taohua said, "She killed her mother-in-law in the village."
"Is the body still there?"
"Buried."
"Then we have to open the coffin and conduct an autopsy," Captain Feng said. "I will report the truth to the county magistrate when I return, and ask him to make the final decision."
"This person is being held in solitary confinement. Be careful that she doesn't hurt others," Qin Huiyin reminded.
Captain Feng and Song Ruize looked at each other.
The two of them understood each other tacitly.
Solitary confinement? That's impossible.
Song Ruize had already informed Captain Feng, isn't this crazy woman just pretending to be crazy? Before the verdict is made, let her go to the prison to experience the punishment of evildoers.
Qin Huiyin took Tang Luwu's hand and carefully examined her injuries.
In addition to the scratch on the neck, there were several wounds on the arms.
"If she hadn't gone crazy in the middle of the process and kept shouting, 'Don't hit me' and 'Baoyu, don't hit my mother', I would have had no chance of living to see you." Tang Luwu's face was pale.
"It's okay. She's been caught."
Qin Huiyin saw Song Ruize was about to leave, thinking that he had been busy for so long that he didn't even have a bite of hot food, so she walked forward a few steps and said, "Brother, do you have anything else to do later?"
"No."
"Then let's go to the restaurant to eat. I'll cook a few side dishes." Qin Huiyin turned around and said to Captain Feng, "Brother Feng, if you don't mind, come join us!"
"Since my sister said so, I won't refuse." Captain Feng laughed, "Brothers, Miss Qin, the sister of General Song, is treating us to a good meal today. Let's thank Miss Qin."
"Thank you Miss Qin."
"You go first. I will take my brothers to take the prisoner to the prison, and then report today's case to the county magistrate."
"Okay, we'll wait for you at Sister Chuanchuanxiang." Qin Huiyin said, "If you don't come, we'll be hungry all the time."
"If there's wine and meat, I'll definitely come."
Tang Luwu pulled Tang Yichen's arm: "Brother, what's wrong with you?"
"If anything happens to you today, I will never forgive myself in my life."
"Brother, this is none of your business. You didn't know something like this would happen. Besides, this lunatic has been trying to take over our family, if not today then tomorrow."
