Upon hearing the news, the Xu Mansion was in chaos.

When the old lady learned that her grandson and daughter-in-law had been kidnapped by the bandits, she fainted in anger.

When Fan Qingyi heard this, he could only cry and cry, and the pear blossoms brought rain, and he couldn't come up with any good ideas.

Everyone pinned their hopes on Mr. Xu, after all, for so many years, he had taken care of the inside and outside for the old lady.

This time, Mr. Xu didn't pretend to be sick again, this is a great opportunity, if he doesn't get up and grab it with both hands, who will come out and rob him?

Several stewards surrounded Mr. Xu and asked, "Mr. Xu, you say, what should I do?" ”

However, Mr. Xu was so happy in his heart, how could he really find a way to save people? What he has to do is just do his best on the surface, and behind the scenes, of course, he wants to urge the bandits to tear up the ticket quickly, so as not to have too many dreams at night.

His face was full of sorrow, and he said at a loss: "Alas, the old lady is so angry that she is sick, and I don't know what to do for the time being." Let's discuss it together. ”

This kind of thing can be delayed as long as it can, and it is best not to make the final decision from his mouth, so as not to be caught by others in the future.

"Otherwise, let's report to the police." Steward Li said anxiously.

"No, what if they are forced to rush and they tear up the ticket?" Steward Zhang immediately stopped and said, "The young master is the only bloodline of the Xu family, we can't take this risk!" ”

"yes!" Steward Li also agreed, "If these officials can have a way to deal with these bandits, these bandits will not be arrogant to this day!" ”

"What then?" Steward Li said impatiently.

"The bandits, did you get a letter?" Steward Zhang asked the crowd, "How much ransom?" ”

As he spoke, the doorman hurried in and handed over the envelope that had just been thrown in the gatehouse.

Manager Xu opened the envelope and saw that it was indeed the bandits who wanted a ransom.

"Two hundred thousand taels!" Manager Xu said with emotion.

"What?"

The other stewards took the letter and looked at it, and they all gasped.

Will this carelessness affect the Xu family's business!

"Mr. Xu, you have an idea, right?" Steward Liu urged.

"How can I get this?" Manager Xu said very embarrassedly, "Everyone, don't be impatient, the water bandits give us three days to prepare, let's wait for the old lady to wake up before deciding." ”

"The old lady wants the young master to return safely no matter what, so let's go and prepare the ransom first." Steward Zhang said a little calmly.

The corners of Mr. Xu's mouth twitched, thinking, you have a lot to do.

"Yes, we still have to recruit some guys, more than last time, do you want to recruit a few people from the rivers and lakes to help?" Steward Li said in a panic again, "By the way, last time it was the young grandmother who went to pay the ransom, and this time the young grandmother was also arrested, who should we send?" ”

"Steward Li, are you in a hurry?" Steward Liu said, "Isn't there another young grandmother in the Xu family now?" ”

"Yes, yes," Steward Li calmed down a little, pondered for a while, but immediately became anxious again, "It's just that this young grandmother is soft-spoken, and without the courage of that young grandmother to make a decision, can she afford this heavy responsibility?" ”

"Steward Li, you're too worried!" Steward Sun said impatiently, "Isn't this matter undecided, in my opinion, let's wait for the old lady to wake up before deciding." ”

"Go raise ransom and recruit the strong!" Muji heard an old but determined voice sound.

When everyone looked into the hall, they saw that the old lady, supported by the two old women, appeared in front of everyone, although her face was haggard, but her expression was firm, her eyes were resolute, and she looked like her will would not fall even if her body was broken.

"I must rescue my grandson and granddaughter-in-law!" The old lady's attitude is unquestionable.

"That ...... Who pays the ransom? Steward Sun asked with some trepidation.

"In two days, I have my own decision!" The old lady said majestically and domineeringly, "My old woman still has a breath of air, why are you panicking?" Do as I say! ”

Even if the old lady faints in a hurry and wakes up, to this point, she can still give everyone strength and stabilize the morale of the army like a root of the sea god's needle. Everyone can still be like this, where do they dare to chatter, but they are also a lot calmer, and they quickly split up.

After everyone left, the old lady left Mr. Xu behind.

"What do you think about this?" The old lady asked.

Unable to guess the old lady's true intentions, and having a ghost in her heart, Manager Xu couldn't help but be a little nervous, and said: "The little one is deeply frightened, and I really can't understand what the young master and young grandmother are doing when they go out early in the morning, why did they collide with the water bandits?" ”

"Obviously, the water bandits have been paying attention to the two of them for a long time!" The old lady said with a solemn face, "The whole Xu Mansion is under your management, haven't you noticed anything unusual recently?" ”

"A small oversight." Mr. Xu chuckled in his heart and secretly became more cautious.

"No matter what, if my An'er can't return safely, I will fight for this old life, pour out all the wealth of the Xu family, and avenge An'er!" The old lady's eyes became very deep, thinking of two bottomless black holes, which were unpredictable.

Manager Xu couldn't help but snort, and hurriedly pretended to comfort: "Young Master Jixing is shining, he will definitely be able to return safely." ”

"It better be!" The old lady said in a deep voice, "You go and raise money, if it's not enough, sell the Xu family's shop." An'er can't come back, everything in the Xu family is meaningless to keep. ”

Mr. Xu was frightened, and his heart was cold.

If Xu An'an can't come back, this old lady won't really scatter the Xu family's wealth, right?

If that's the case, then wouldn't he be a bamboo basket for nothing!

Hey, did the old lady see something?

——

In the cabin of the bandits.

Xu Anan leaned over and over to Yu Xiaohuan, and said fearfully: "Peach Blossom, will we die?" ”

"Grandmother will do anything to save you." Yu Xiaohuan didn't look worried, just a little dazed.

"My life has just begun, and I don't want to die!" Xu Anan said next to Yu Xiaohuan.

Their hands and feet were still tied, and their eyes were covered with black cloth.

It was darkness in front of him, and his hands couldn't reach anything reliable, which made the fear in his heart continue to rise.

"Peach Blossom, you have always had a lot of ideas, you should think of a way." Xu An'an's voice sounded like she was about to cry.

Yu Xiaohuan said in her heart, if you hadn't called me out of nowhere, these guys might not have been able to find me, maybe I would have been able to send you a ransom again, but if you have to drag me into the water, I can't do anything about it! But seeing him so panicked, he couldn't bear to mend the knife to him, so he had to comfort him a few words.

Actually, she doesn't have a bottom in her heart! At this point, though, it's almost time for her to leave.
