After being transformed into the cannon fodder of a villain, I counterattacked and became the protag

Chapter 23 Huang Shanlan is back
Zhang Jinyue felt like there was a fire burning behind her when she went out, but she was not in a hurry after withdrawing money from the bank.

To be honest, Zhang San is now a bomb hidden under the water. He doesn't know when it will be detonated. Leaving it behind will be a disaster after all.

Anyway, the other two kidnappers have been dealt with, so he is the only one left, so he can be sent to the gang for a dinner.

She paused and went to a braised meat shop on the corner of the street to buy a pack of roasted pork and a pot of soju.

Zhang Jinxiu entered the room and closed the door. Zhang San had already jumped up from the bed and came to her side. His eyes were scanning from top to bottom like an X-ray, "Have you brought the money?"

"Take it!" Zhang Jinxiu took out the silver from her sleeve and waved it in front of Zhang San, then took it back a second before he reached out to grab it.

"What are you doing!" Zhang San was very dissatisfied and said in an urgent tone, "Give me the silver and let me count it. I tell you, you can't miss a penny out of 100 taels of silver!"

This was related to Liu Niang's redemption money, so there was no room for error.

Zhang Jinxiu looked at him anxiously like a monkey, and when his patience was about to run out, he threw the money over, "When I just came back, I saw officers and soldiers coming this way. You'd better hurry up, lest you lose your life because of your money." flower!"

Zhang San's happy expression didn't last more than three seconds. He frowned when he heard the bad news. His first reaction was disbelief, "You want to frame me?"

He originally thought that this woman was very rich and could easily take out 100 taels of silver. He planned to blackmail her again. With the money in hand, their family's life would be much easier in the future.

"Believe it or not, I have brought my words to you anyway. If you get caught, don't get involved with me! I will only say that I don't know you." Zhang Jinxiu said in a casual tone, "I even prepared roast chicken for you. You take the silver and the chicken and leave quickly!"

Zhang San was a little hesitant. He opened the window and took a look. He seemed to really see a pair of soldiers in official uniforms coming this way.

After being torn between money and life safety for a moment, he gritted his teeth and gave up the plan to extort more money.I took a quick look early to make sure the money was about the same, rolled up the money, packed the roasted chicken and wine, and left.

When Zhang Jinxiu saw the person leaving, the relief on his face disappeared, and he sat down expressionlessly. After a while, he laughed again.

I hope Zhang San can finish the roast chicken that I specially prepared for him, but don’t let him down!
After Zhang San left, Gu Yuncheng picked up Huang Shanlan and sent her to the entrance of Huang's mansion. He waited for a while to make sure that she was let in before rushing to the Laifu Inn.

As soon as he arrived at the door, he met the person he was following sneaking out with something in his arms. He hesitated and caught up with Zhang San.

Zhang San was still feeling sorry for Yinzi who left him, and didn't notice anyone following him.

Soon he had another idea - he could not sell Huang Shanlan and just give her a bite to eat.With Huang Shanlan as a hostage in hand, he is not afraid that Zhang Jinxiu will not give him money in the future!

What Zhang Jinxiu just said was to bluff Zhang San, but what she didn't expect was that officers and soldiers really came and surrounded the inn, searching each room.

Soon, the door knocked.

"Who is it?" His tone was a little impatient.

"Open the door. Someone reported that the Laifu Inn is hiding a criminal. We are ordered to search!"

Zhang Jinxiu paused for a moment, then opened the door.

Huang Guan was still leading the team this time. He looked a little surprised when he saw it was Zhang Jinxiu, "Why do you live here?"

Zhang Jinxiu greeted Huang Guan and joked in a relaxed tone, "If I don't live in an inn, I can't go out on the street, right?"

"That's not what I meant." "I know." Zhang Jinxiu chuckled, "What happened when you brought so many officers and soldiers here?"

Huang Guan originally didn't want to say anything, but after thinking about Zhang Jinxiu's care and concern these days, he still told the truth. However, he didn't say anything about Huang Shanlan. He only said that someone reported that a kidnapper was hiding in Laifu Inn.

"Really? If it's really the kidnapper, that would be great!" Zhang Jinxiu paused for a second, with curiosity on his face, "Wasn't there no news before? Who reported the case?"

"It's a little beggar." Huang Guan said hesitantly.

Zhang Jinxiu didn't ask any more questions and stepped aside to let them in, "We're going to search, right? Come in!"

The officers and soldiers who searched saw that Zhang Jinxiu and Huang Guanxiang were chatting happily, and even told her about Huang Shanlan. Knowing that the two had a good relationship, the search noise was much quieter, so they went out after a casual search.

The result was as expected by Huang Guan. He was anxious about Huang Shanlan and didn't want to stay too long. "You go back to your room and rest. I'll look elsewhere!"

"Wait a minute," Zhang Jinxiu called to Huang Guan. She closed her door and walked to Huang Guan's side, walking side by side with him. "I'm also worried about Sister Shanlan. Let me go with you!"

Huang Guan had no objection and led the people to continue searching.

Seeing that the room had been searched but no trace of the kidnapper was found, Huang Guan looked ugly, while Zhang Jinxiu breathed a sigh of relief.

Huang Guan was in a depressed mood, but the Huang Mansion was happy. The dark clouds blocking their heads were finally cleared, and everyone's faces were filled with smiles.

"Okay, okay, just come back!" Mrs. Huang took Huang Shanlan's hand and looked left and right. She couldn't get enough. She noticed the injuries and stains on her daughter's body and felt distressed for a while.

Mr. Huang's calm expression also cleared up, and he touched his daughter's head, "Shan Lan has suffered!"

He then advised Mrs. Huang, "Madam, stop crying. It's a good thing that Shanlan is back. You should laugh!"

Mrs. Huang turned a deaf ear and hugged her daughter, calling her "darling" and "baby girl", for fear that what she was having was a dream and her daughter would disappear as soon as she let go!

Huang Shanlan hugged Mrs. Huang and patted her mother's back gently. Mrs. Huang could only stare at the side and couldn't get in at all.

"Shanlan, let daddy give me a hug too!" Mr. Huang shamelessly approached, but Mrs. Huang pushed him away with one hand.

After a while, the mother and daughter recovered. Mrs. Huang took Huang Shanlan down to wash up. Mr. Huang did not leave either, sitting down in the front hall to drink tea.

He felt that today's tea was particularly sweet, the mung bean cake was particularly delicious, and even the birds chirping on the branches were particularly sweet!
Now I just wait for Guan'er to catch the kidnapper and take him to the government.If you dare to kidnap his baby daughter, he will entertain him well!

Mr. Huang was sitting in the front hall waiting for his wife and daughter. A servant came to report that it was Gu Yuncheng who wanted to see him. He thought for a while and let people in.

"Master Huang," Gu Yuncheng cupped his hands, "I heard that the daughter of your family is back. I'm really happy to congratulate you! My wife Jin Yue is still in the cell. Can you ask the county magistrate to clear her name?"

Mr. Huang touched his beard and asked the yamen to take the people. He turned to Gu Yuncheng and said, "Sit down. Guan'er has already gone to arrest the kidnappers who kidnapped Shanlan. Please wait here. If she, Zhang Jinyue, is really unjust, I will The officer will naturally let her go!"

"Then thank you sir."
