Chapter 245
Xu Chunjun didn't sleep well during her illness. She had a fever and her whole body was aching.

Suddenly, the sound of footsteps outside woke her up.

The footsteps were hurried and chaotic, Xu Chunjun knew what was going on as soon as he heard it.

Then Zi Ling reprimanded in a low voice: "It's the middle of the night, what's going on?"

A man's voice said: "Uncle something happened, otherwise I wouldn't dare to disturb grandma."

Xu Chunjun heard that it was Skandar talking.

She was about to get up, but her whole body was weak and she couldn't use her strength, so she called out: "Who's outside?"

A Mino hurriedly responded, "I'm here, grandma."

Xu Chunjun said, "Light on the lamp, and help me get up and get dressed."

At this moment, Lüshi and Ah Li also walked into the inner room, helped Xu Chunjun get up together, and dressed her.

Ziling then came in, seeing Xu Chunjun barely supporting himself, felt very uncomfortable.

Xu Chunjun asked her, "What happened?"

Zi Ling said: "Xiao Shun, who followed the uncle, just came back and said that the uncle was tied up on the road outside the city."

Xu Chunjun said, "Call the housekeeper and Xiaoshun in! I'll ask."

"Girl is sick now, why don't you lie down! I'll tell them to answer at the door outside." Seeing that Xu Chunjun was really sick, Ziling said.

Xu Chunjun shook his head and said, "It's okay, let them come in!" She was supported to the ground, her feet seemed to be on cotton, and she sat on the chair with some difficulty.

Skandar and Xiaoshun then walked in to greet him.

Xu Chunjun said: "Forget it! Let's talk about things."

Xiaoshun wiped his tears and said: "Back to grandma, the younger one has been with grandpa in Qingyun Villa for the past few days. It was dark today, and the housekeeper Si went to find him and persuaded grandpa to go home.

The uncle said he would not go back, but after eating and playing a few rounds of cards, he suddenly said he wanted to go home.The little one came out leading the horse, and after walking for five or six miles, the uncle said that he wanted to relieve himself and asked the little one to watch the horse.

But after waiting for a long time, the old man did not come back, so the younger one went to look for him, but the old man disappeared.After searching for a long time, I saw a letter pressed under a stone. When I opened it, it turned out that my uncle had been tied up by some kind of murder. "

Said and handed over the letter.

Ziling opened the letter, and Xu Chunjun looked at it with her hand, only to see that it said: "Brothers are desperate, please borrow from Uncle Zheng. Prepare one hundred thousand silver notes, and don't alert the government, otherwise Uncle Zheng's life will be lost."

The letter was unopened, unsigned, and scribbled.

Xu Chunjun looked at it and asked Xiaoshun: "Did you have any disputes with anyone in the villa in the past few days?"

Xiao Shun thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "No, I just choked up with someone at the poker table today, but they usually know each other, and they do this occasionally, so it won't go to the point of kidnapping."

Xu Chunjun asked again: "Then when you came out, was anyone following you? Or was there anyone else on the road at that time?"

Xiao Shun shook his head and said, "I didn't see it, there was no one on the road at that time."

After Xu Chunjun heard this, he was silent for a while, and then said: "If these people are asking for money, the uncle is probably safe at the moment. They will send another letter in a short time, telling us where to pay the money."

Ziling said: "The girl is sick now, and it's such a big deal, why don't you invite the aunt from the Lu family! There are also a few masters from our family. There are so many people to discuss and help the girl to come up with an idea. "

Xu Chunjun shook his head and said: "It's late at night, it's noisy, let's forget it. If you want to invite the elders, you have to wait until dawn. These people will definitely give us time to raise money, so we won't push too much."

Xiao Shun'er knelt down and begged: "Grandma, please help uncle! He has you in his heart."

Xu Chunjun coughed and said, "No matter how he treats me, I will save him. Get up!"

Then he said to everyone: "Don't tell the truth about my uncle being kidnapped, lest someone take advantage of the fire. Besides, our bank has just opened for a few days, and the news will inevitably affect the business. Tell all the servants who know about it, and let them Don’t let the wind leak out, or you’ll be kicked out after hitting enough boards!”

Everyone hurriedly agreed.

Xu Chunjun said to Skandar again: "The accountant will come tomorrow, let him see how much money is still in the account, and prepare for the exchange of 10 taels of silver notes."

Skandar replied, "Mr. Zuo will come tomorrow and I will take care of it."

Xu Chunjun said again: "Although we can't report to the officials, we can't wait for death. When the city gate is opened, let Xiaoshun take Hua Sanbo and the others to the place where the uncle was kidnapped, and then check carefully to see if we can find anything. clue."

After hearing this, Xiao Shun quickly agreed.

After Xu Chunjun finished speaking, he was a little out of breath.

Ziling supported her distressedly, and said to Skanda and Xiaoshun: "You two go down first! I will call you if there is anything."

Then he and Lvzhen helped Xu Chunjun up and sent her to the bed.

Xu Chunjun was sweating profusely, and his clothes were all wet.

Lu Po felt sorry for her own girl, and couldn't help complaining: "Grandpa is real! I know that the family is fooling around outside all day long. Otherwise, this could happen? But the girl is so sick now, and she has to worry about him! These damn things The same goes for the thieves, whoever is not good to be tied up, he must be tied up! These thieves who have cut off their children and grandchildren will suffer thousands of knives!"

Zi Ling also blamed Zheng Wuji in her heart, but Xu Chunjun was already very uncomfortable at this moment, what's the use of saying this?

So he said: "The girl is sweating, take a clean underwear and change into it!"

Ah Li quickly went to the closet to get a suit, and Zi Ling changed it for Xu Chunjun herself.

He served her to drink half a bowl of warm water, and then gently covered her with the quilt.

Xu Chunjun said: "You all go down! It's still early before dawn, and this matter will not be resolved in three or five days. You must take the opportunity to recharge your energy and store up your energy, so as not to drag your body down."

She knows that the matter is of great importance, but the more important the matter is, the more she must be calm and steady, otherwise she will lose everything if she is not careful.

After Xu Chunjun lay down, he slept two more times.

Ziling cooked bird's nest porridge with rock sugar and brought her a bowl.

After another half an hour, let her take the decocted medicine.

After taking the medicine, it will be dawn.

Xu Chunjun was more or less relieved, and asked Lüshi to bring breakfast.

Everything she eats now tastes like chewing wax, but she still has to force herself to eat it.

Just after drinking half a bowl of porridge, Skanda came, holding a letter in his hand, and handing it to Ziling: "I wish my mother found this in the vegetable basket when she came back from shopping this morning. I don't know who put it in." of."

Ziling brought it in and showed it to Xu Chunjun, with the words on it: "The hundred thousand bank notes are ready, and they will be sent to Fuziqiao in three days' time."

"This Master Bridge is in a busy city," Ziling said puzzled, "Why did they choose this place to pay? Aren't they afraid of being held back?"

"This must not be the last meeting place." Xu Chunjun said, "Let's wait three days later!"
