Poor family mother and son

Chapter 309
Lost in the fog, crossed in the maze of the moon, life has been cut off and there is no way out.

In the vast mist, people sleeping soundly on the boat may think that there are unusually thick "water plants" growing in the deep water under the boat?
Little Treasure slept soundly.

Before dawn, I finally waited for someone from Shui Maomao to send a message: "Kyoto secret investigation department, surnamed Wu, Zongqi. The two groups of porters have nothing to do with them, but they drove them away and used them to block the road. All seven of them have been dealt with."

Xiaobao can finally sleep peacefully.

"This matter can't be settled, this time the kidnapping won't work, that Wu can't continue to play tricks?" Xiao Sining said worryingly.

Why didn't that guy come with him?That way he can be "disposed" too.

Chu Yuan thought for a while, then started to write a note with a candle, and wrote down the matter of Wu Shirong hiring someone to kidnap Xiao Bao, and handed it to Gan Lai: "Let your son go back and pass the message to the boss."

The golden eagle had already flown back to eat fish when the fog was rising, and now it was standing and "taking a nap" holding on to the side of the boat.

Gan Lai put the note in a bamboo tube and tied it to "Lai Ah"'s lap, and "Little Gan Gan" fluttered its wings gloatingly: Hey, I can eat live fish all by myself now that you're gone!
"Come on" said "Xiao Gangan" with a hooked mouth: silly, I'll go back to eat beef and mutton!

After Chu Qing received Chu Yuan's letter, he read it twice with a frown, and went back to the house without saying anything, which made Bai Jiaxing baffled.

It's not that he didn't think that Xiaobao would be in danger, but the one who really brought danger to Xiaobao was himself.

Every time Xiaobao is implicated by himself.The mother and child are separated, without the "garish" existence of being a female official, perhaps Xiaobao is safer.

And Xiaobao's attitude was so resolute before leaving, Chu knew that he was uncomfortable, pimples, eager to grow and experience, so she had no choice but to cooperate with him.

What he really didn't expect was that Wu Jichang was dead, and his son unexpectedly appeared.

It is very possible to avenge his father.

Although there is no evidence to prove that his father killed himself, revenge is not to solve the case, as long as suspicion is the reason for action.

Possibly, why is it kidnapping instead of direct killing?What are you thinking?
Theoretically speaking, if Xiaobao was kidnapped, he should report to the police.

But with the current situation to report to the official, what will Xiaobao suffer?
Xiaobao and the others will be questioned for a long time, and the fact that they killed people will be brought out, and then how many people they killed will be investigated.

In this way, Chu Yuan and Xiao Sining and the twenty or so people will change their nature, from rescue to massacre, and become murderers.

If they were rescued, how did they get rescued, who saved them, and what did the people who rescued them do... Then the people who helped Xiaobao were involved, and then they were checked to see if these people had any criminal records, and then they all turned into murders. commit.

After going around in circles, there is no direct evidence to prove that this group of people kidnapped Xiaobao. They are all dead, so how to find out?The case had to be retried and tried again, and it was Xiaobao who was on trial.

Also, even if the case is reported to the officials, which local officials will take over the case when it happened at the ferry?This is about playing football with each other, right?
Besides, there is no evidence and no physical evidence. How to prove that the kidnappers were sent by Wu Shirong from Kyoto?He lives far away in the capital, and has never met Chu Qing and Xiaobao.

In short, if you really want to report to the authorities, this attempted kidnapping case will be delayed indefinitely, and it is definitely Xiaobao and the others who are being harassed.

In this kind of society where "the people don't raise officials and don't investigate", reporting to officials is not as good as "revenge".

But how do you get revenge?Chu Qing had to wait until the spring plowing before he could leave Yibin mansion. He also cut down other trees and planted cotton, and the spread of the stalls had to be tidied up before he could change places.

Time is not rich.

Moreover, Wu Shirong's plan failed, there must be a next plan, and what is the next plan?When does it happen?There is no prediction.

As the saying goes, "Only a thousand days can be a thief, how can there be a thousand days to guard against a thief"?
Knowing who the enemy is, but can't take immediate revenge.How aggrieved!

Now she just wants to get Xiaobao back. The child is young, so it's really worrying to put it outside, but she can't control Xiaobao.

Fortunately, Chu Yuan said in the letter that it was very interesting for Xiaobao to make "friends in the rivers and lakes", and he tried his best to escort him throughout the whole process, so let's talk about it as comfort.

………………

Ever since he brought his fat daughter-in-law back in the first lunar month, Bai Jiaxing has completely returned to Chu Qing's side as his personal housekeeper.

Chu Qing can't do without a meticulous person around him.

Eating, combing hair, and making quilts, such tasks that Chu Qing could do by himself, no matter how thoughtful the "Mistress Chapai" did, were not the "delicacy" required by Bai Jiaxing.

This kind of meticulousness, Bai Jiaxing believes that only if he is by his side can he barely qualify.

Moreover, now with the help of his fat daughter-in-law Zheng Xiaorou, Bai Jiaxing feels that now Chu Qing can finally live a life that a "human" should live.

Indeed, Chu Qing basically doesn't have to think too much about things now, just like in Wukeshu Village, there are two people to help take care of who to meet, when to go out, how many entourages to bring, dresses for various occasions, etc. .

In dealing with people, Zheng Xiaorou helped Chu Qing a lot and became Chu Qing's "female master".

As a female official, Chu Qing prevented other officials who wanted to make friends with Chu Qing from using the method of "Madam Diplomacy".

It will be different with Zheng Xiaorou, these "wives" finally have the opportunity to "visit" at home, even if Chu Qing is not at home, Zheng Xiaorou can still protect the relatives of low-level officials for her.

Chu Qing was also very dependent on Bai Jiaxing and his wife, and would discuss with them almost every major and minor matter.

But Chu Qing is always happy when receiving messages from Xiaobao. Even if she has troubles, she still looks like "sweet troubles". What's wrong today?
Bai Jiaxing looked at Zheng Xiaorou, and Zheng Xiaorou immediately agreed, took someone else's embroidery frame from Huang Rong and went to Chu Qing's room.

"Sister, I said that Xiaobao's purse shouldn't be embroidered, but look, Huang Rong has already embroidered more than half of the begonias..." Zheng Xiaorou was at a loss for words, observing the clear expression with her eyes.

Chu Qing froze for a moment, obviously not knowing where her mind was wandering.

"Sister?" Zheng Xiaorou called out again.

Unlike other daughters-in-law, Zheng Xiaorou insisted on calling Chu Qing "sister" because she thought the title "boss" was indisputable and unpleasant.

The eldest is a woman, so she should have a woman's life. She also led other daughters-in-law to call it this way. As for the men, she didn't care, "Everything is different!" she said.

Chu Qing finally came back to his senses, and glanced at the embroidery frame in Zheng Xiaorou's hand: "Isn't that for Xiaobao? It seems to be for me?"

"Oh... I said it!" Zheng Xiaorou noticed that the letter Chu Qing read just now was placed on the quilt while she was speaking, and the hair on Chu Qing's forehead was messy.

It appears that this is in trouble again.Pulling hair is Chu Qing's signature behavior.

Zheng Xiaorou sat on Chu Qing's bed carelessly, picked up the crumpled letter paper, and asked Chu Qing, "Sister, do you still want to read it? Do you want to put it away?"

Every time the golden eagle brought back a letter, Chu Qing would smooth it with his hands and put it in a box, and Zheng Xiaorou made a gesture of flattening the letter paper.

"Look! Oh no, don't read it, put it away." Chu Qing was visibly disturbed.

"Then I'll take a look too, and I'll accept it after reading it." Zheng Xiaorou said to herself.

Her way of dealing with Chu Qing was to forcefully intervene when Chu Qing was "self-closing" and let her speak out, otherwise she would just be bored in the room and pull her hair out.

Chu Qing didn't want her to read the letter, but there was nothing shameful about it. She just didn't want others to worry about it. In the end, Chu Qing didn't speak to stop her.

Zheng Xiaorou quickly read the letter and knew where the problem was.

"Sister, are you worried about Xiaobao's safety? Are you worried that this kind of kidnapping will happen again in the future?" Zheng Xiaorou said.

"En." Chu Qing nodded: "This matter is troublesome. Chu Yuan said that there were seven people, and none of them were left alive."

Zheng Xiaorou patted the letter paper: "Just don't keep it."

Chu Qing looked at her in surprise.

Zheng Xiaorou was just a daughter of a high-ranking official who didn't leave home. She thought that this girl could only study and embroider when she was confined at home.

On weekdays, you can also see that she is dignified and high-end in dealing with people, but why didn't you find this kind of "jianghu thinking"?

Zheng Xiaorou explained: "These people can't be kept alive, Xiaobao and the others are still on the road, they can't take the prisoners on the road, and they can't sue the officials, not to mention whether suing the officials is useful, but just say that they are flying darts, but there is only one month's time limit."

Chu Qing nodded, there was a reason for this.

Zheng Xiaorou thought for a while, and then said: "Sister, I haven't been back to my mother's house since I got married, and I have nothing to do now, I want to go back to Kyoto to have a look."

"You..." Zheng Xiaorou changed the topic quickly, but Chu Qing hadn't recovered yet.

"Sister, I want to 'return to the door', and take a look at what's going on in Beijing. I'll think of a way later, and then I'll come back with them when Xiaobao and the others finish their dart handover." Zheng Xiaorou explained.

If she thinks about it clearly, it's okay, this can be regarded as giving the matter a direction to think about, otherwise she won't know where to start for a while.

Moreover, what Zheng Xiaorou said was "returning to the door", it is said that she should return to the door within three days, this is because she is far away, and Xiaorou has no family relationship with her family, so she never went back.

Chu Qing began to get busy preparing the "returning gift" for Xiao Rou.

It's not because of any relationship with Zheng Xiaorou's father who is the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, it's purely to save face for Xiaorou.

Being busy, Chu Qing naturally has no time to pluck her hair.
