Chapter 33: Kidnapping

Ah Huan sat on the sofa and shed tears, and Hongzhi kept comforting him. Rhubarb wagged his tail anxiously outside the door, his mouth making a muffled sound.

Shen Mengxi saw this scene when he went downstairs, and Helen whispered: "When I answered Mr. Xu's call, I cried." ”

"What's the matter, eldest son!" Shen Mengxi sat next to Ah Huan, "The man shed tears, something big must have happened." ”

"Dad is going to Beijing to teach."

Shen Mengxi sighed, "He will come back often, didn't he say he wanted to move?" ”

"Yes." Ah Huan recalled that his father really only said on the phone that he was going to Beijing to teach, and did not say that he would move to Beijing and not come back.

"Ah Huan, you are 13 years old, if you cry and cry when you encounter something, the rest of your mother's life will be miserable."

Ah Huan's face flushed, "Qiu Zhihao's grandparents, father and mother live together, and I envy them the most." ”

"That's the situation in our family. Ah Huan, if you mind this matter very much, you should think about what kind of family you want to give your children when you become a father in the future. Shen Mengxi said, "Ah Huan, we all love you, what you regret is that we are not together." Many people, not a single loved one, did not cry at every turn. ”

Ah Huan looked at Hongzhi and was a little embarrassed.

In this world, sentimental people are often people who have received a lot of love, and they are sad about what they have lost, and they are sad that they have not gained enough.

Xu Shizhe was invited by Hu Hongxing to become a professor at Peking University and concurrently a professor at Beijing Women's Normal University.

The consumption level in Beijing is much lower than in Shanghai, and with Xu Shizhe's income, they can live quite comfortably in Beijing. But Lu Xiaomei refused to go, although she grew up in Beijing, she didn't like the northern climate, and she couldn't do without Weng Ruiwen's massage.

So Xu Shizhe could only go back and forth between Beijing and Shanghai frequently, and he entrusted favors to take free postal planes back and forth, which is both money-saving and fast.

Although Lu Xiaomei is very talented, she is obsessed with social places, spends money like running water, and smokes opium, plus Weng Ruiwen often comes to the door, and massage is a treatment that requires physical contact, and for a while, the good and the ugly are all out.

It's really a thing to a thing, Xu Shizhe was made to death by Lu Xiaomei, they often quarreled, but a telegram, they will still come back to send money, although they also have opinions on Weng Ruiwen's frequent visits, but they can't watch Lu Xiaomei be sick, and they have to ask Weng Ruiwen to take care of them. is a good Jiangnan genius, and his rather depressed appearance has appeared, and I don't know if I understand Wang Shouqing's mood at the beginning.

Shen Mengxi knew that Xu Shizhe died in a plane crash in history, she pitied Ah Huan and couldn't bear him to lose his father, so she took advantage of Xu Shizhe's return to send Lu Xiaomei living expenses, and asked him to come home to talk once.

"Mr. Xu, you can wire back your living expenses, you know, that kind of small postal plane is not very safe, it is better to take the train to come back."

Xu Shizhe smiled gratefully, "Thank you for your concern, Jiayu, I can feel that you really care." ”

Shen Mengxi really didn't fit for such a poetic chat, "It's Ah Huan who is very worried about you, and he is really attached to you." A child who lacks father's love since he was a child can hardly make up for that psychological shadow for the rest of his life, and without his father's care, he is always not brave enough. Or, it will affect his mentality as a father in the future. ”

"Yes, I did give Ah Huan less time." Xu Shizhe listened to this.

Shen Mengxi looked at Xu Shizhe, whose face showed the vicissitudes of life, his current pressure should be very great, he got married without hesitation, and the social impact was so great, he and Lu Xiaomei were all over the world whenever there was a little trouble. To this day, if he divorces again, I am afraid he will not be able to withstand the attack of public opinion. Or, he really loves Lu Xiaomei, even if it is so hard, he still loves her as before.

"Money is used by people, and people cannot be used by money. Do you understand? Mrs. Zun's expenses are too great, you should be restrained, and letting a person do whatever he wants is not the right way to love her. Mr. Xu, I earnestly advise you to rearrange your life, your every move is related to my son, please consider it carefully. Shen Mengxi said solemnly.

Xu Shizhe didn't make a sound, just nodded.

******

Mrs. Weng came to the Yunshang clothing store to chat twice, each time she became more and more haggard. She had a fifth child in her womb, and she was so thin that her bulging belly was particularly abrupt.

Shen Mengxi had to persuade him with good words. Mrs. Weng smiled bitterly and said, "I understand everything, I can only consider myself unlucky, so I will treat him as a concubine and take an outer room." ”

"Look, isn't this very clear, you have said everything I said, what shall I comfort you?" Shen Mengxi checked her, the fetus was not big, the fetal heart rate was normal, and the fetal position was normal. She knew that Weng Ruiwen would take care of her, but out of habit, she still had to check it out herself.

"That Mrs. Xu, I'm afraid I'm sick." Mrs. Weng looked at Shen Mengxi mysteriously and gloatingly, and made a look, "You understand. ”

Shen Mengxi immediately understood that probably Lu Xiaomei had an abortion before the divorce, and the so-called stomach pain may not be the truth, regular massage may be related to menstrual pain and the like, she has not heard of it in her cognition, stomach problems are treated by massage.

But there was no evidence, Shen Mengxi could only pretend not to understand, and shook his smile and said, "I don't understand." ”

Mrs. Weng looked like she didn't admit it, and said with a smile: "I'm not in a hurry, just think she's a plaything of Ruiwen, and she can give birth to a son. ”

Shen Mengxi looked at Mrs. Weng's face and was speechless.

This poor woman, in the days to come, will have some of it.

******

That night, Shen Mengxi suddenly received a phone call, and Zhang Jiaxuan said anxiously, "Jiayu, no, the second brother has been kidnapped and hasn't been home for two days!" ”

Shen Mengxi was startled and completely sleepy, "How can this be?" ”

"You go to the second brother's house early tomorrow and accompany the second sister-in-law." Zhang Jiaxuan sighed, "Let's talk when we meet." ”

Early the next morning, Shen Mengxi first called the school to ask for leave, and then drove to Zhang Jiasen's house.

I haven't been here for more than half a year, and as soon as I walked in, I heard the sound of a baby crying, and a nanny was holding Huang Shiying's second child, walking around the house, coaxing her mouth.

Shen Mengxi took off his windbreaker and walked over to pick up the child: "Why is Xiaobao crying, it's not beautiful!" ”

The one-year-old child, who also knew the beauty and ugliness, glared at the aunt and stopped crying.

"If you have anything to eat, bring me some food, I'm starving!" Shen Mengxi instructed Chen's mother, who was holding the child just now, "Why are you standing stupidly, go quickly!" ”

Huang Shiying heard her sister-in-law's voice in the study, and she didn't come down immediately, she was still angry about that "backmouth", this sister-in-law is the darling of the whole family, and she is used to having no appearance, her brother reprimanded her, and immediately returned her mouth in public, so that her brother couldn't get off the stage.

It wasn't until Zhang Jiaxuan came that she cleaned up and went downstairs.

Xiaobao sat in his aunt's arms and played with a ragdoll bear that he had never seen before, laughing, and seemed to be full of food and drink. She sighed, forced a smile and said, "Jiaxuan and Jiayu are here, and Mother Chen won't call me." ”

"I didn't let her go, you can rest more." Shen Mengxi smiled unmindfully.

The eldest brother and the ninth brother also came, and several people sat down to analyze Zhang Jiasen's kidnapping.

"No one has called or written to ask for money. Jiasen went to class the day before yesterday and never came back, the youth school said that he took a briefcase and took a rickshaw home after class, and yesterday we went to the car dealership to inquire, and he got off at the street corner not far from our house and went into the grocery store to buy cigarettes. And then there are no clues. Huang Shiying said calmly, "I analyzed that it was a political kidnapping, but I didn't know if it was that person for a while, and I didn't know what the intention was." ”

Zhang Jiaxuan also analyzed that the second brother should not be in danger of life, and persuaded Huang Shiying to take care of his body and take care of the two children.

Several people discussed for an hour, but there was no good way, and the police station also reported the case, and there was no clue.

Only wait for news of the kidnapping party.

When Shen Mengxi left, Xiaobao suddenly cried, and asked her to hug her with both arms, Shen Mengxi couldn't cry or laugh, "You little Laipi, why are you still relying on your aunt!" He walked over and pinched her under the armpit, "I'll take it!" ”

All the way to the door, the child was just caught face down, and he didn't struggle, he really wanted to follow his aunt.

Shen Mengxi stood down helplessly and looked at Huang Shiying.

"If the seventh sister doesn't dislike Xiaobao's annoyance, take it to see it for a few days, I really don't have the heart to care about her these days." Huang Shiying looked at her and said. She knew that the relationship between the brothers and sisters of the Zhang family was very good, whether they quarreled or got angry, they would still let go of their previous suspicions in the end. The seventh sister knows the leader of the Green Gang, maybe she has to beg her.

Shen Mengxi pretended to throw Xiaobao away, turning her around and throwing her around, Xiaobao giggled, and was not afraid.

"Okay, second sister-in-law, you can rest assured that the child is handed over to me, my Helen likes children the most, I work during the day, she helps take Xiaobao, you can rest assured."

"Of course I'm relieved, I'm just causing you trouble, Jiayu."

"A family is polite whatever. Don't worry too much, I don't think the second brother will be fine. "There are very few books about Zhang Jiasen in Wuling Space, but there is no mention of his untimely death.

"Yes, I borrowed your good words."

Huang Shiying asked the nanny to prepare some clothes for Xiaobao, Zhang Jiayu held Xiaobao and sat in the back seat, Zhang Jiakun sat in the passenger seat, and Shen Mengxi drove back to Zhang's house in the French Concession. Zhang Jiaxuan took the company's car to the bank early.

When she arrived at Zhang's house, when Helen saw Xiaobao, she shouted exaggeratedly, pulled away all obstacles, and directly hugged Xiaobao and kissed her. The first time Xiaobao saw the yellow-haired man, he came up and was smacked again, and immediately cried in horror.

Helen was very sad.

Ah Huan took Xiaobao and went to the side with Hongzhi to take her to see the big dog.

"Seventh sister, I'm going to work in Shanghai recently, and the fourth brother asked me to go to their bank."

"Okay. Finally settled down. ”

"That, the rent in Shanghai is too expensive, I earn those two oceans......"

"Come to my house to live, although the house is not big, there is still a room for you." Zhang Jiakun said, "Just tell the eldest brother directly, what are you doing to find your seventh sister!" ”

"Your home is too remote, it's okay to go to your factory, or it's convenient to get to the concession." Zhang Jiayu said with a grin, completely ignoring Zhang Jiakun's angry beard.

"Our house has a curfew, you must insert the door before ten o'clock in the evening, and you can't eat and live for nothing if you don't raise idlers."

"I'm your own brother! The younger brother of a milk compatriot! Zhang Jiayu shouted, grabbing Shen Mengxi's arms and shaking.

"The cost of room and board for ten oceans; Do not bring friends to the house; Go home before 10 o'clock; I go to Baoshan once a week to help me take care of the factory. ”

Shen Mengxi was shaken so much that he had a headache, and he still said expressionlessly.

"You ......"

"Ten oceans are not enough to rent a pavilion, Ninth Young Master!" Shen Mengxi interrupted him.

"Okay." Zhang Jiayu sat on the sofa. "When I make more money, move out immediately, and don't look at your capitalist face."

Shen Mengxi hit him in the face with an orange, and Zhang Jiayu screamed.
