Chapter 744: Stealing Children

It turned out that a few days ago, Song Xuecheng was in the pharmacy when a guy rushed in and shouted: "Shopkeeper Song, it's not good, the little boy was stolen." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"What?" Song Xuecheng was so angry that he almost fainted.

He staggered into the backyard, only to see that his youngest son Tonghui's bed was empty, and the backyard wall was clearly climbed.

"Oh my God! My son!" Mrs. Song, who came later, screamed and fainted.

Song Xuecheng hurriedly reported to the official, and the arrest of Jingzhao Mansion searched all over the boundary of Chang'an within a radius of dozens of miles, and there was no news of Tonghui.

Mrs. Song was anxious and couldn't afford to be sick, and Song Xuecheng was also anxious, running to the mansion all day long, urging the arrest of the thief and the wicked.

After hearing this, Zhang Baoer couldn't help but be surprised: "There is still such a strange thing? ”

He pondered for a moment and asked, "Shopkeeper Song, after Tonghui disappeared, could someone write a letter to blackmail money?" ”

"Nope." Song Xuecheng shook his head.

"Then shopkeeper Song, think about it again, what enemies do you have?" Zhang Baoer asked again.

"How can I have an enemy, in this life, I believe in doing good deeds and accumulating virtues, hanging pots to help the world, and I have never offended anyone. Even if there is an enemy, then you can find me to take revenge, why do you want to steal children?"

Zhang Bao'er thought about it for a while, and then asked, "Is there anything special about Tonghui?" ”

"Nope!" Song Xuecheng shook his head and said.

"That's amazing! Zhang Baoer muttered to herself.

"Oh, yes!" Song Xuecheng seemed to remember something, he added: "Tonghui has had an eye disease since he was a child, he can't see things clearly, and it is difficult to walk in the aisles without an adult to guide him. ”

Zhang Bao'er said strangely: "Didn't you know a Lang Zhong surnamed Zhou in the mountains on the outskirts of the city?" He specializes in treating people's eyes, using acupuncture techniques that have been passed down from generation to generation, which is very effective. Why don't you go to him and show Tonghui? ”

Song Xuecheng sighed and said, "Why didn't you look for it?" It's just that Tonghui's disease is rare, in addition to acupuncture, it also needs a lot of medicinal materials to heal, but I didn't find all the medicinal materials. ”

Zhang Bao'er's eyes widened: "You are a medicine shop, how can you not find all the medicinal materials?" ”

"Actually, all the other medicinal materials have been found, and the main medicine is missing, and it is because of this main medicine that it has been delayed."

"What medicine? Can't even get together the shopkeeper of Song? Zhang Baoer said in surprise.

"The thousand-year-old black pearl of the South China Sea!"

Zhang Baoer gasped, no wonder Song Xuecheng couldn't get this medicine. Pearls are precious medicinal materials, especially the deep-sea pearls in the South China Sea are even more rare, as for the thousand-year-old pearls, they are hard to find, and if they are black pearls, I am afraid that many people have never heard of it.

Alas! Originally, Zhang Baoer wanted to help Song Xuecheng, but she couldn't do anything about it.

Zhang Bao'er was silent for a while, then got up and said: "Shopkeeper Song, I have a way, I should be able to find the little boy, if you can trust me, you might as well give it a try." ”

Song Xuecheng said happily: "Who in Chang'an City doesn't know that Dingguo Gong is a master of judging cases, and it's too late for Dingguo Gong to help Song to be grateful, how can he not believe Dingguo Gong?" ”

"Okay, Shopkeeper Song, you just do what I say......"

……

After Zhang Baoer left, Song Xuecheng not only went to his own pharmacy as usual, but also went to the first floor of Germany to drink porridge every day.

When Mrs. Song found out, she scolded him: "Are you stupid? We've lost our son!"

Unexpectedly, Song Xuecheng smiled, looked at no one left and right, and leaned into his wife's ear and said: "I'm not stupid, our son didn't lose, what was lost was the son of Hu Laosan in Sheng'anfang, Chengdong." ”

Mrs. Song touched her husband's forehead: "You have a fever and are you confused?"

Song Xuecheng quietly told her a secret: after she gave birth to Tonghui, he asked a fortune teller to give Tonghui a hexagram, and the master said that Tonghui would have a catastrophe when he was five years old, and the only way to save him was to give Tonghui away, change his name and surname, and then get his son back after escaping the disaster when he was five years old. Song Xuecheng was afraid that his wife would not agree, so he secretly found Hu Laosan, a poor blacksmith in Sheng'anfang, east of the city, Hu Laosan's wife happened to give birth at that time, and gave birth to a son.

As he spoke, Song Xuecheng took out Zhang Fahuang's contract, and there was indeed a handprint of Song Xuecheng and Hu Laosan's change.

"What? You said that the child we have raised for five years is Hu Laosan's?" Madame Song opened her mouth wide.

Song Xuecheng nodded proudly and said: "Sure enough, if Tonghui was stolen when he was five years old, it happened to fulfill the words of the fortune teller." I've been to see our Tonghui, and I'm still doing well in the Hu family. ”

Mrs. Song said worriedly: "If Hu Laosan knows that we have lost his son, what if he doesn't return our Tonghui?"

Song Xuecheng snorted coldly: "It's a big deal to give him more money, if he doesn't pay it back, I'll sue him!"

Mrs. Song's worries were not unreasonable, Hu Laosan heard that their son was lost, he was so angry that he jumped three feet high, pointed at the people of the Song family and scolded: "Unless you get my son back, don't want to go back to Song Tonghui." ”

Song Xuecheng said that he didn't listen, and in a fit of anger, he sued Hu Laosan to the Jingzhao Mansion.

Within half a day, the lawsuit between the Song and Hu families was known to everyone, and Zhou Xian had never encountered such a ridiculous case, so he didn't know how to judge it for a while.

On that day, there was a crowd of people outside the palace, crowded with people who came to see the excitement.

Zhou Xian ascended to the hall and asked the Song and Hu families what their requirements were.

Song Xuecheng spoke first: "As long as Hu Laosan returns my son, it can cost as much silver as he wants." ”

Hu Laosan jumped to his feet and scolded: "Fart! Your Song family lost my son, and you still want to get your own child back, it's just wishful thinking. ”

The two disagreed, and they even fought in court.

Zhou Xian asked the official to separate the two, and his brows furrowed into a pimple: "Retire from the court, and the trial will be retried in three days." ”

After saying that, he brushed his sleeves away, and the people also laughed and talked about it, and they all said that there was a good show to watch now, and the case was hanging.

But it was said that after Hu Laosan went home in a huff, he closed the courtyard door and instructed his wife to cook food and wine.

After three glasses of wine, Hu Laosan hugged his son and kissed him: "You are a good baby of your father, my own son is lost, and you will be my own son in the future." ”

After drinking and eating, Hu Laosan fell asleep, Hu Laosan's wife hugged Song Tonghui and chirped for a long time, and when the child fell asleep during the third watch, she sewed and mended clothes under the lamp.

Soon, Hu Laosan's wife seemed to hear the sound of chickens fluttering in the yard, and she thought that a weasel was dragging chickens, so she took a wooden stick and came to the chicken coop. Unexpectedly, before she could stand firmly, she saw a monkey grabbing an old hen and jumping over the courtyard wall. Hu Laosan's wife was startled, and when she stabilized her mind and chased out, where were the monkeys. She cursed and went back to the house. I just wanted to tell Hu Laosan about this strange thing, but I found that Song Tonghui, who had just fallen asleep, was gone.
