Chapter 282 Are you teaching me how to do things?
Siming was almost laughed out loud by her: "I'm a military commander, and you want me to use money to redeem my own brother. How can I not save my dignity?"
"Brother-in-law, face is more important, or is A Tian's life more important? You should know best which is more important." Jing Xiuxiu was still trying her best to persuade him.
"Are you teaching me how to do things?" Siming squinted at her.
"That's not what I meant. I'm just worried about A Tian's safety." Jing Xiuxiu looked worried.
"What are you worried about me?" Si Tian was pushed in in a wheelchair.
"Why are you here?" Jing Xiuxiu widened her eyes in disbelief.
The letter clearly said that he had succeeded, so how could he appear here?
And there is no scar at all, how is this possible?
"What are you talking about, Miss Jing? I'm not here. Should I be somewhere else?" Si Tian looked at her in confusion.
"I, I didn't mean that. It's just that someone just sent me a message saying that you were kidnapped." Jing Xiuxiu spoke a little stutteringly.
"This is interesting. If I was really kidnapped, why didn't I send the letter to the Governor's Mansion, but to you?" Si Tian looked at her with amusement.
"But, maybe it's difficult to get into the Governor's Mansion. It's more convenient for me to stay in a hotel." Jing Xiuxiu said in a low voice.
"That's strange. Miss Jing and I aren't really relatives now, so it's strange that they could still find you."
"Even if we can't get into the Governor's Mansion, the Si family has a lot of shops. I'm afraid any one of them would be more convincing than sending it to you, don't you think? Miss Jing."
Si Tian looked at her with a smile on his face, but his eyes were cold.
"I, I think so too. Since you are okay, I will go back first." Jing Xiuxiu felt that she had become really stupid because of the fever. How could she have forgotten about this matter?
As she said this, she was about to leave Siming's office.
"Did I let you go?" Siming said coldly.
The guards at the door had blocked the door and aimed their guns at Jing Xiuxiu.
"Brother-in-law, what are you doing? I came here with good intentions to deliver a message to you, but you treat me like this." Jing Xiuxiu immediately became anxious when she saw it, and turned to question Si Ming.
"Good intentions? I think you have ulterior motives." Siming said as he moved closer to her.
"Jing Xiuxiu, I've already spared you once for the sake of Wanru and the deceased Prince Jing. Do you really think you can just act like that in front of me?"
"I, I don't know what you are talking about?" Jing Xiuxiu was so flustered that she didn't dare to meet his eyes.
"Don't you know, or do you dare not admit it?" Siming approached her step by step.
Jing Xiuxiu stepped back step by step, and finally hit the sofa, where she had nowhere to retreat and fell down.
She looked up with tears in her eyes: "Brother-in-law, I am also worried and confused. How do I know this is fake?"
"Put away those little tricks. Don't think I don't know that you planned all this."
"how?"
"The self-torture tactic didn't work, threats didn't work, and now you're resorting to kidnapping?" Siming took out the pistol from his waist and pointed it at her forehead.
He had already released the safety of the pistol and his finger was slowly pulling the trigger.
"Plop." Jing Xiuxiu knelt directly on the ground.
She was no longer pretending to cry like before, but was really crying: "Brother-in-law, I don't want to do this either, but I have no choice."
"If I can't get the money, they will hand me over to the people of the Taisho Empire when I go back. I, I don't want that."
As he said this, he was about to reach out and grab Siming's trouser leg, but he dodged it easily.
Siming's gun was still pressed against her forehead. "Jing Xiuxiu, you scheme against us time and time again. Do you really think I, Siming, am made of mud?"
"Brother-in-law, please forgive me this time for my sister's sake. After all, I am now a special envoy of the Northern Government. You can't kill me."
"If you kill me, you will be in trouble too." Jing Xiuxiu no longer cared about the pain all over her body.
"You reminded me that I really can't kill you now." Si Ming retracted the gun that was pointing at her forehead.
Jing Xiuxiu felt relieved when she saw him put away his weapon.
Since she couldn't get the money from Siming, she could only go to Chen Yongnian. At worst, she would just sleep with him for one night.
She made up her mind and stood up with the help of the sofa: "Sister, brother-in-law, if, if there is nothing else, I, I will leave."
"Jing Xiuxiu, let me remind you again, we are not relatives." Siming squinted at her.
"Okay, General Si." Jing Xiuxiu limped away.
After watching her leave, Si Tian turned to look at Si Ming, a little confused: "Brother, are you just going to let her go like this?"
"If we let her go, will the people above let her go?"
"I think I won't let her go unless she can get compensation." Si Tian remembered what she said.
Siming handed him the blackmail letter and said, "She couldn't get the money, and she caused so many casualties in the dark. Do you think the people above will be very angry?"
"It would have been easy for me to kill her with one shot, but it would have given the northern government leverage against me."
"We still have a lot of preparation to do, and we can't give them any chance to target us now."
Si Tian sighed helplessly. If his elder brother was a selfish person, why would he care about the people in this city and keep retreating?
"Ah Tian, standing in this position, I feel helpless and helpless. I can only try my best to find a way to help everyone live longer."
"Personal gains and losses and unhappiness are no longer the most important things." Siming looked out the window.
"I know, but we still need to have someone keep an eye on Jing Xiuxiu and don't let her do anything weird again." Si Tian said, looking at his back.
"I've already sent someone to keep an eye on her." Siming said, turning to look at him: "Do you think she will give up?"
"She is such a selfish person, how could she give up?" Si Tian would never believe that she would give up.
"I guess he will go to see Director Chen." Siming smiled like an old fox.
Si Tian looked at the ransom letter in his hand and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Fifty dollars, I believe Director General Chen is still willing to pay it."
"Let's go, let's go outside the city to see Mom and Juanjuan and the others." Siming said as he stretched out his hand to push his wheelchair out.
The rice planting outside the city is proceeding in an orderly manner. Now you can see a lush green field, and there are still many fields that have not yet been planted.
Juanjuan, Si Jinchen and Liu Yueya are all very skilled now.
Without the mud grabbing Juanjuan's little feet, she can now do it just as well as the adults.
Si Ming pushed Si Tian to a cool place and said, "Stay in your wheelchair. I'm going to work in the fields."
As he spoke, he took off his coat and threw it to Si Tian, rolled up his trouser legs, took off his shoes and socks and prepared to go out.
When Adjutant Min saw this, he quickly took off his coat, folded it and put it aside, then took off his shoes and socks, ready to go down to the field with them.
