Rebirth with Love
Chapter 61
When Su Xinghua woke up, he found that his hands and feet were tied, and he was thrown in a dirty, dark and damp place.She struggled a bit, the rope was tightened, and the oily skin on her wrists and ankles was scratched, and it was burning and painful.
"Come on, you bandits, let me go quickly." Su Xinghua yelled loudly while struggling with anger.
The door opened, and Yang Anting came in carrying a teapot and a coarse porcelain water bowl.Poured a bowl of water and brought it to Su Xinghua: "Miss, drink some water."
"Yang Anting, you bastard, let me go quickly. Otherwise, you will die without a place to bury you." Su Xinghua frowned coldly.
"That's all for later, right now, take care of yourself first." Yang Anting looked at her with a smile: "Drink water, call for help, and moisten your throat."
Su Xinghua lowered his head, bit the bowl and took a sip of water.Lifting his head with a "poof", water sprayed on Yang Anting's face.Yang Anting wiped his face without getting angry, and walked out of the dilapidated house with the teapot and water bowl.
"Yang, come back and let me go." Su Xinghua struggled to stand up.The door closed, and the room returned to the darkness just now.
Yang Anting glanced in through the broken window pane, and said to the guards on the left and right: "Look carefully, this is a real 'daughter'."
The two guards nodded, and Yang Anting walked to the main hall of the small courtyard.Sitting in the middle of the main hall was a burly northern man, about forty years old, wearing a shabby yellow cloth military uniform.He took a map and studied it carefully. When he saw Yang Anting, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "How is that young lady?"
"Very good, full of energy." Yang Anting walked up to him: "Brother, have you figured out where to trade?"
"We fucking fought from the north to the south, and there are only five or no. 60 people left. They add up the people from the patrol room in Runcheng, Bailai, and the Su family's own guards are also quite a lot. Look at Runcheng These surrounding places are very open, so it’s really hard to choose a place. If Su Zhen had been arrested that time, it would have saved us trouble.” The elder brother who took the lead sighed: “If you hesitate temporarily, you will miss the opportunity in vain. , and injured a few brothers.”
"Don't think about him in the past, just look at the present. The patrols are not stupid, and they naturally won't bring everyone out. Besides, we have Miss Su in our hands, so forgive them and dare not act rashly. "Yang Anting glanced at the map and pointed to a small hill fifty miles south of the city: "Just choose this place. There is an abandoned Sea God Temple here. The terrain can be attacked and defended, and it is far away from where we live. By then , only need a few able-bodied people to take Ms. Su there, and retreat quickly after the transaction. They probably won’t be able to catch up. If they all come out here to round up, we will use the rest of the people to pretend to attack Runcheng. We These people are all from martial arts background, so they can still bluff some people by putting on airs."
The elder brother who took the lead smiled and slapped Yang Anting heavily: "You are truly the brains of the 352 brigade."
"Thank you." Yang Anting narrowed his eyes and smiled approvingly.
"In your opinion, if they send someone over to trade, who is more appropriate?"
Yang Anting rubbed his chin: "The Su family has an adopted son named Su Yizhi. He is Miss Su's fiancé in name. The relationship with the Su family is always a bit delicate. After thinking about it, he might be a good person."
"Then according to your wishes, he is only allowed to come alone. We will send brothers to watch secretly along the way. If they have an ambush behind us, we will cancel the transaction."
"Well, let's arrange it like this." After two discussions, there was no objection.After setting the time, Yang Anting asked one of his literate soldiers to write a letter, and sent someone to deliver it to Su's house late at night.
Su Zhen drove back to Runcheng in a bumpy car.As soon as he got off the car, Su Shunqing greeted him from the house.
"Brother Zhen, you're back." Su Shunqing grabbed his hand, ignoring other people's gossip.Su Zhen looked at his sickly blue-black face, and frowned: "Any news about those bandits?"
"Not yet, maybe I will send another letter at night." Seeing Su Zhen, Su Shunqing felt very guilty and aggrieved.
Su Zhen let out a breath, not wanting to tell Su Shunqing in detail.The bumps along the way made the injury on his shoulder ache.Biying broke away from the people in front of her and got out from the crowd, looked at Su Shunqing and said mockingly: "The second master only thinks about the eldest lady, the master came back from a long distance, and he still hasn't had a sip of water yet."
Su Shunqing was slightly embarrassed, and then remembered that Su Zhen had been busy all the way.He let go of Su Zhen's hand: "Let's go back to the room and rest. Defu is going to get a bowl of ginseng soup."
When Su Zhen returned to the room, Su Shunqing came over with ginseng soup.Su Zhen supported his forehead: "Let me rest for a while."
Su Shunqing put down the ginseng soup, looked at his slightly pale face, feeling even more guilty.Seeing Su Shunqing back out, Degui closed the door, gently took off Su Zhen's clothes, and changed the gauze on the wound on his shoulder.
Biying walked to the door and knocked lightly.Su Zhen was slightly taken aback, pretending to be okay: "Who is it?"
"It's me, master." Biying's voice was light and flirtatious.Su Zhen's face darkened, and he winked at Degui.Degui opened the door and let her in.
"Master, it's been a hard journey." Biying was holding the mung bean paste, and suddenly saw the wound on Su Zhen's shoulder and the bloody gauze on the ground, and screamed.The mung bean paste in his hand fell to the ground and spilled all over the place.
Su Zhen glanced at her coldly: "What's the matter? Are you unhappy to see me hurt like this?"
"What is the master talking about? What's the matter? Is it serious?" Biying settled down.He was expecting to come here to ask for credit, but he didn't expect Su Zhen to be injured like this.
"Ask the third wife yourself." Su Zhen looked at her: "I thought you were an idiot, but I didn't expect you to play tricks with me. I'm afraid it's a plan to kill me and Xinghua, and then please The clan elders are the masters, at least half of the Su family's property is in your hands."
Biying's whole body was cold, and cold sweat oozes out. Kneeling on the ground with a "thump", he swore to the sky: "If I have the heart to murder the master and Xinghua, I will die badly. I really don't know what happened to the master's injuries."
"Strange, didn't you arrange those people for me?" Su Zhen sneered.
Biying was in a cold sweat again, remembering the bad ideas she had made for Su Zhen, she pounced on Su Zhen and hurriedly defended: "Those people were arranged for me by a distant relative of mine. I also told the master before that he is a He ran away from the rivers and lakes. I didn't know that his background was so innocent..."
"You said before, didn't you seem to know him very well?" Su Zhen looked at her with pity: "Now it's completely pushed away."
"I'm eager for merit...how would I know..." Biying waved her hand and slapped herself twice on the mouth.Su Zhen looked at her in disgust. Before Zhuang Fan's affairs, he thought she had done a good job, but he didn't expect that there would be a side issue here.But with her stupid brain, she couldn't do such a thing.
"Where is Xinghua?" Su Zhen asked after taking a breath.
Biying looked at Su Zhen tremblingly: "I really don't know, if I want to know, I would have said it a long time ago."
"Where's your distant relative?"
Biying's forehead was dripping with sweat: "I haven't seen him for the past two days."
"Get out." Su Zhen buttoned up his clothes, Bi Ying got up from the ground, and left Su Zhen's room disheveled.
Su Shunqing watched Biying come out of Su Zhen's room from a distance, her high-spirited expression had disappeared without a trace, presumably Su Zhen didn't give her any good looks.His own daughter was kidnapped, no one would be in a good mood.Su Shunqing shook her head, just sat and rested in the middle hall, waiting to see the bandits outside the door before sending news.
After sloppy dinner, Su Zhen still looked tired and didn't have the energy to say anything to Su Shunqing.Su Shunqing lowered his head and blamed himself even more deeply, secretly thinking that he must be blaming himself for not taking good care of Xinghua.
It was nearly nine o'clock, and it was quiet outside.The doorman hurried in, holding a letter in his hand as expected.
"Did you see the messenger?" Su Yizhi who was by the side asked.
"It was sent by a little hairy boy, who is still dumb." The boy said.
Su Shunqing hurriedly took the letter and sent it to Su Zhen's room. Su Zhen opened the letter and looked at Su Yizhi who followed Su Shunqing in, frowning again.Su Yizhi didn't understand what it meant.Su Shunqing took the letter paper from Su Zhen's hand: "Tomorrow evening, at the Sea God Temple in the south of the city, I will hand over the money with one hand and the other with the other hand. Only let Yiyi bring the money over..."
After reading the letter, Su Shunqing hit the people in the left and right rooms.As the ransom sender, he and Su Yizhi are the only ones in the family who are more suitable.Their surname is Su, but they have no blood relationship with the Su family.In comparison, Yizhi has less sincerity towards the Su family than himself.These bandits really know the Su family well.
"As for the money, are you ready?" Su Zhen asked Su Shunqing.
"After receiving the letter, all the money in the shop has been mobilized. The amount is sufficient."
"Okay then." Su Zhen rubbed his temples: "Shun Qing, you stay, and the others go to rest."
Everyone withdrew, Su Shunqing knelt in front of Su Zhen and sighed faintly: "I'm sorry about Xinghua."
Su Zhen pulled him up: "Don't say such things at this time. I just ask you, do you think Yizhi is reliable?"
"We can only gamble now. Based on their understanding of the Su family, we can't act rashly."
"That's right." Su Zhen frowned and rubbed his tangled brows: "It's really not reconciled to let those bandits blackmail like this."
"Xinghua's life is important. I'll talk to Yizhi again. He will listen to what I say."
Su Zhen stopped talking and glanced up and down at Su Shunqing.After only a few days of seeing each other, he became increasingly thin and out of shape.His eyes were deeply sunken, and his body was so thin that it could be blown down by a gust of wind.
"It's about Xinghua's life, and you are the only one to tell him." Su Zhen felt disgust towards Su Yizhi for no reason.
Su Shunqing left the main courtyard where Su Zhen lived and turned around to find Su Yizhi's room.Su Yizhi didn't sleep, he leaned against the bedside with a book and read it.Seeing Su Shunqing come in, she put the book under the pillow: "Second Dad."
"You heard me about the letter just now. Those bandits asked you to send the ransom." Su Shunqing sat in front of Su Yizhi's bed.Su Yizhi nodded, even though he pretended to be reading just now, he had been thinking about this matter all the time.
Su Shunqing took out a jade bracelet from his pocket and handed it to Su Yizhi: "This bracelet has been with me for some years. I don't need it anyway, and it will be worth some money if you sell it later."
"Second Dad..." Su Yizhi looked at Su Shunqing in surprise.
"I have saved some private houses. If you can get Xinghua to come back, I won't force you. It doesn't matter if you go to Peking or Germany, you can go anywhere you want. Just don't delay Xinghua's life."
Su Yizhi looked at the bracelet in his hand, but didn't speak.
"You are a good boy. Second Dad never asked you for anything in this life, only this matter, please do it well."
"Second Dad don't worry, I will bring Xinghua back in good condition."
"Come on, you bandits, let me go quickly." Su Xinghua yelled loudly while struggling with anger.
The door opened, and Yang Anting came in carrying a teapot and a coarse porcelain water bowl.Poured a bowl of water and brought it to Su Xinghua: "Miss, drink some water."
"Yang Anting, you bastard, let me go quickly. Otherwise, you will die without a place to bury you." Su Xinghua frowned coldly.
"That's all for later, right now, take care of yourself first." Yang Anting looked at her with a smile: "Drink water, call for help, and moisten your throat."
Su Xinghua lowered his head, bit the bowl and took a sip of water.Lifting his head with a "poof", water sprayed on Yang Anting's face.Yang Anting wiped his face without getting angry, and walked out of the dilapidated house with the teapot and water bowl.
