This summer's rain seems to be extraordinarily much, and it rained for two days after leaving the shopkeeper Yu, although it is not big, and it is quite the smell of smoke and rain in the south of the Yangtze River floating in the air.

Xiaodouding Road didn't go to school either, and waited until the rain stopped before putting on a schoolbag to go to school.

It rained for two days in a row, and the pastry room did not start, and after the rain stopped, the amount of this task increased sharply, but fortunately, Yulian had already gone to the pastry shop to take care of it, and Shen Qingqing also saved some heart.

She thought that she would send it to Yulian after making lunch, and by the way, let her come over to rest for a while, Shen Qingqing stewed the fish soup, and was about to cook Yulian's favorite spicy fried water spinach, when she suddenly heard a shout outside.

"Is Qingqing at home? Is Qingqing at home? This voice was extremely weak, and Shen Qingqing recognized it as Xiucai's voice.

Shen Qingqing hurriedly put down the kitchen knife and ran out of the house: "Yo, why are you here today?" Sit down, sit down, don't you have classes in the school? ”

That Xiucai looked left and right in the room but didn't sit down, with a curious face: "Isn't Xiao Douding at home?" ”

"Little beans?" Shen Qingqing's hand pouring tea suddenly trembled. "He went to school this morning, why didn't he go to school?"

"Nope." Xiucai shook his head, feeling that something was wrong. "It's because he didn't come to school today, so I came to the house to look for him, and I wondered if he had a cold and fever and couldn't come over."

"No, no." Shen Qingqing shook his head, he didn't have anything else to think about. "He went to school this morning."

When the two of them said this, they were very flustered when they looked at each other.

Xiucai said directly: "Maybe the child is young and playful in the town, I'll go to the school first and let people look for it, and you can also look for it at home." ”

That Xiucai said and walked forward quickly, although Xiucai said so, but Shen Qingqing knew in his heart that Xiao Douding was greedy for fun in politics and had little chance of going to school.

Shen Qingqing suddenly became six gods and no master, his heart seemed to have stepped into the void, and when he just wanted to look for someone, he saw that the forest had put down the back basket and had come back from outside: "Qingqing, I'm back." ”

"In the woods!" Shen Qingqing hurriedly ran over, grabbed Lin Zhong's arm, and told Lin Zhong that he was also surprised. "How is it possible, I watched Little Douding go to school this morning."

Shen Qingqing spun in place, shaking his head: "Yes, how is it possible?" It's impossible for this Haohao to be so sensible that he could do anything naughty, could it be that something happened wrong? ”

The more she thought about it, the more worried and scared Shen Qingqing became, and she was so flustered.

Once she has no mind, she has no logic to speak: "What should I do, what can I do now?" What should I do if I can't find this little bean ding? What if something goes wrong? ”

Shen Qingqing knew that now was not the time to calm down, but the more desperately she tried to calm down, the more she couldn't calm down.

Fortunately, Lin Zhong was very assertive at this time, he pulled Shen Qingqing's arm: "Let's not worry, this little bean Ding may be greedy for fun and can't find the way for a while, let's go to the village chief first, and let the people in the village help find it, this person has a lot of strength, maybe he will find it." ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Shen Qingqing nodded hurriedly, and the two of them went to the village chief's house.

As soon as the village chief heard about this, he also knocked on the table: "Okay, I'll ask the people in the village to find it immediately." ”

The village chief is very efficient, and after agreeing to Shen Qingqing, he asked Liu Qing to notify him from door to door, Shen Qingqing has a good reputation in the village and is rich, and the people in this village are also willing to help, and for a while, the old and young masters all put down their work and went to the mountains to find Xiaodouding.

The village women stopped doing housework and searched the edge of the village.

The people of this village had been looking for most of the day, and it was not until almost afternoon that they gathered at Shen Qingqing's house.

Yulian also heard that she had no intention of helping in the pastry shop anymore, so she came over directly to comfort her: "Sister Qingqing, don't worry about it first, this little bean Ding is so sensible, she will definitely not be naughty somewhere." ”

Shen Qingqing also knows this, but I'm afraid it's not this thing.

Recently, she has been in the limelight too much, what if it attracts the fact that the enemy is taking Xiaodouding, Shen Qingqing didn't dare to think about it, the more she thought about it, the more panicked she became.

"We went to the mountains to look for it, but we didn't see the child."

"There is no by the creek either."

And those villagers came back one by one and said that they didn't find Xiao Douding, Shen Qingqing could be regarded as completely helpless, so he could only walk around the house, and kept saying in his mouth: "How can this be, how can this be." ”

Yulian is just a woman, seeing Shen Qingqing so anxious, she actually cried, only Lin Zhong was calm at this time.

He confirmed with the villagers that he had not found Xiao Douding, and asked the villagers to do their own things, and when the house was quiet, there would be room to think.

Lin Zhong poured Shen Qingqing a cup of tea: "Don't worry, I'll go to the town to have a look later." Let's see how Xiucai is doing, we can ......"

Who knew that before he finished his sentence, he saw a beggar suddenly appear at the door of the house, and the beggar was still holding a letter in his hand: "Which of you is Shen Qingqing?" ”

As soon as Shen Qingqing heard someone calling his name and a beggar, he quickly stood up: "I'm Shen Qingqing, is there anything wrong?" ”

The beggar was dirty, and his clothes were in tatters, but only one letter in his hand was neat and tidy: "This is what someone asked me to pass on to you." ”

"Who are you? Who told you to give it to me? Then Shen Qingqing took the letter and asked.

But the beggar ran away, and could not catch up with him.

Shen Qingqing took the letter and glanced at each other with the two people in the forest, and when he hadn't opened it, he had a premonition in his heart that this matter must have something to do with Xiaodouding.

Sure enough, he only opened the letter and there were only a few lines in it, but for Shen Qingqing, it could be regarded as a bolt from the blue.

"The secret recipe for 10,000 taels of silver and glutinous rice cakes, otherwise send your son to the western sky."

The sentence is simple and clear, it is clear that the secret recipe for Shen Qingqing to take 10,000 silver and glutinous rice pastries is to redeem Xiao Dou Ding, if he can't make it up, then Xiao Dou Ding may be torn up.

The letters floated on the ground, and Shen Qingqing's whole body was completely weak.

She slumped in her chair and closed her eyes to calm herself, but she couldn't.

Na Yulian picked up the letter and looked at it, and the whole person fell backwards in fright: "How can this be? If we can't scrape together 10,000 taels of silver and can't come up with the secret recipe for glutinous rice, will they have to ......?"

Yulian couldn't say anything when she said this, then Shen Qingqing was already panicked, and tears flowed out when she heard Yulian say this: "Ten thousand taels? I just smashed the pot and sold Tie Ye can't give it, this glutinous rice secret recipe is also given to them if they want me. But my child must not be fine, and what will I do if something happens to him. ”

can't blame Shen Qingqing for being too flustered now, but Xiaodouding is simply her name, in case something happens, Shen Qingqing will be useless even if she cries her tears.

Yulian was also crying beside her, and Lin Zhong was afraid of affecting Shen Qingqing's thoughts, so he said: "Yulian, I'm afraid you haven't eaten at noon today, you go to make some food first, and I'll accompany Qingqing to think of a way." ”

"Okay." That Yulian wiped away her tears, she didn't have her own opinions, she did whatever Lin Zhong and Shen Qingqing said.

Lin Zhong sat next to Shen Qingqing and stretched out his hand to pat Shen Qingqing's back: "Don't worry, since someone has already sent this letter back, it means that there is no danger in Xiaodouding now, we still have to think of a way." ”

Shen Qingqing is usually very calm, but now that she is confused, she can only shake her head: "What if this kidnapper is too cruel and bloody, and we haven't scraped together so many silver taels, what if he tears up Xiaodouding?" But how can I live? ”

"Qingqing, Qingqing...... Listen to me, don't be in a hurry. Lin Zhong's tone was very gentle. Since someone sent the letter back, it means that there is nothing to do with Xiaodouding for a while, if you are just panicking and just crying now, it will not help, we still have to think about how to rescue him first. ”

Under the continuous comfort of Lin Zhong, Shen Qingqing calmed down, she swallowed a mouthful of saliva and took out a paper and pen, and wrote her family property on it: "This one hundred taels is a large amount, we have to think carefully about how to make up the silver." ”

It's not a big problem to give them this glutinous rice secret recipe, but this ten thousand taels of silver, but it's a stump for them, let alone Shen Qingqing, even if it is Master Liu and Zhen Qian, it seems that this kidnapper is ruthless and wants the lion to open his mouth.

But as long as the person is still there, this money and everything can be earned, this is the common idea in the minds of Lin Zhong and Shen Qingqing.

Although Shen Qingqing calmed down and took out a pen and paper, now his thoughts are completely gone, and he doesn't match the preface when he takes stock of his family business.

There is no way to look at this in the forest, this little bean has not been rescued yet, Shen Qingqing is crazy.

He simply put the paper and pen aside, and looked at the red eyes of the woman next to him who was crying. He felt distressed for a while, and finally the forest directly hugged Shen Qingqing in his arms, and whispered: "It's okay, it's okay to have me." “

With me, it is an extremely warm word at all times.
