Here, the Wu family sent dozens of men to search along the official roads and paths that the Zhuang family might have passed, and the Zhuang family had already arrived in the capital in a carriage.

As soon as he entered the city gate, Zhuang was recognized by the waiting guys. It turned out that the Wu family and the Zhuang family arranged for their men to wait under the city gate, and they had been waiting for several days, for fear of missing the Zhuang family's carriage.

Zhuang was silent and did not speak, but ordered to pack his bags and directly checked into the Zhuang's courtyard, at this time, the coachman who drove all the way found out that this was actually the grandmother of the Wu family, a big salt merchant in Yangzhou. The coachman couldn't help but secretly say in his heart, fortunately nothing happened along the way, otherwise he really couldn't afford it.

Zhuang ordered someone to pay the coachman's remuneration, and gave dozens of taels of silver, and the coachman who drove the car hurriedly thanked, "Madame is really courageous, the villain thanks Madame, I only hope that Madame's wish will come true, and the Buddha's blessing will definitely make the Wu family safe." ”

Zhuang thanked the coachman and sent someone to send the coachman out.

At this time, when he stepped into the middle hall, Zhuang found that his eldest brother was sitting steadily on the circle chair in the middle hall, drinking tea, and looking at himself indifferently.

Zhuang suddenly saw the eldest brother, and he had a reliance in his heart, cried bitterly, and pounced on Zhuang Zhiyong, "Big brother。。。。。。 "It seems that he wants to cry out all the grievances of this year.

Frightened all the way from Yangzhou to the capital, Zhuang's can almost be said to be undressed, afraid of being found out that women are dressed as men, for so many days, they don't even dare to change their clothes!

Zhuang Zhiyong looked at this sister who has been pampered since she was a child, and couldn't help but sigh, after so many things, she forced the young lady who did not go out of the door into this brave and resourceful and resolute appearance. Some feel distressed and blame themselves.

The brothers and sisters of the Zhuang family lost their father since they were young, and Zhuang Zhiyong was six years older than the Zhuang family, and the sensible ones were naturally earlier than the Zhuang family. Early on, when other people's children were still coquettish in their parents' arms, Zhuang Zhiyong had already followed the shopkeeper of the business to learn to buy and ship. In order to be able to support the dealer's business, Zhuang Zhiyong left home very early to run the business, so many years, not only to keep the ancestral business, but also to expand the dealer's business more than three times, open all over the Central Plains and outside the border.

"You said you, you came to the capital without saying a word, if it weren't for the old lady of the Wu family who found out that you were gone, and sent someone to the capital business to deliver the letter, I am afraid that I will still be in the dark." Zhuang Zhiyong was a little angry.

This baby sister is the closest person in this world, if something goes wrong with the Zhuang family, how can he explain to his mother and father.

Thinking of this, Zhuang's heart was a little weak, and he hurriedly asked, "Mother doesn't know, right?" ”

"How dare I tell her the old man! If she knew you were so bold, she would faint! Zhuang Zhiyong was a little helpless.

"That's good, that's good。。。。。。" Zhuang Shiyong wiped his tears with a handkerchief, "Actually, I have arranged everything, I left a letter for Chun Tao, in case 。。。。。。 ”

"What in case! All we want is you! There is no just in case! If you make any mistakes on the way to the capital, my dealer and the Wu family will not be separated! Zhuang Zhi stopped Zhuang with a drink and didn't let her think nonsense.

"I'm not good, I'm very careful along the way" Zhuang didn't mention much about the hardships along the way, she didn't want her family to worry, not to mention, women dressed as men, for the grandmother in charge, it was not very good to pass it out, and it would even insult the Wu family.

"When I heard the news of my brother-in-law's arrest, I was checking the accounts in Hebei, and as soon as I arrived in the capital, I heard that you were missing. Zhuang Zhiyong's tone was a little heavy, "I've already inquired, and now I don't know how it will be judged in the end, according to my understanding of the Wu family for many years, my brother-in-law is not the kind of person who can be greedy for ink and taxes, let alone disturb the salt law, it seems that he is being targeted by others." After that, Zhuang Zhiyong looked at the screen and retreated, and lowered his voice, "I have warned him a long time ago, it is not appropriate to show his wealth, it is not appropriate to show his wealth, the wealth of the Wu family has long been spread all over the south of the Yangtze River, and the Wu family is half of the south of the Yangtze River!" Children know this kind of thing. A few years ago, the Son of Heaven toured the south, donating money and even if you donate, donate it, you have to take the lead in building a palace, now the whole world knows the Wu family! The expression of filial piety is overdone! No, you're being targeted! Alas! ”

"I didn't persuade him, but wasn't it true that the rich people in Jiangnan were all vying to donate at that time? Our Wu family is also chasing ducks to the shelves - forced! Zhuang twisted the handkerchief, and his tone was a little anxious, "So far, I can only find a way to rescue people first, I don't dare to ask for anything else, I just want Boyong to come back safely, even if it is to ask our big house to donate all the family property." ”

"Today's plan can only take one step at a time. I have already delivered a message to the Wu family, tomorrow you will go to the prison of the Criminal Department with Second Master Wu to see your brother-in-law, bring some broken silver to beat the jailers, don't bring more things, just bring some changes and plasters, I will go to see Xiangye again, now I can only pin my hopes on him. ”

After settling down and settling down with Zhuang's peace of mind, Zhuang Zhiyong turned around and went out to inquire about the news.

Hearing that she had found the Zhuang family, a stone in the heart of the old lady of the Wu family finally fell to the ground, and she recited Amitabha Buddha and blessed by God.

Now that there is no one in charge of the Wu family, the old lady simply handed it over to the Cui family, and she concentrated on chanting Buddhism. The old lady of the Wu family has prayed in front of the Buddha, "As long as Boyong can return safely, the believers are willing to reshape the golden body of the Buddha, and then build a sky lighthouse in the city, worship day and night, and incense continues." ”

The Wu family's business was confiscated, and the remaining tea and cloth business was all shut down. Now the Wu family is seriously injured and has no intention of operating it. I only hope that Wu Boyong can return safely, even if he gives up most of the Wu family's business, it is worth it, the silver is gone, you can still earn it, and if the people are gone, there will really be nothing.

Cui's status in the Wu family has risen sharply now, but she doesn't dare to be too presumptuous. After learning that Wu Yuan had moved into Sanfutang, Cui's went to ask the old lady for peace every once in a while, and his steps were much brisker than before.

The second room is sent to Sanfutang many children's favorite things, every time I invite An Cui's to bring some gadgets to Wu Yuan, and also bring Wu Yongan to play with Wu Yuan, saying that it is to let the two brothers and sisters get close.

The old lady was very satisfied with Cui's attitude, and said straightly, "Adversity sees people's hearts, Cui's used to have a bit of a brutal temperament, but now that the eldest and second are not there, Cui's can also preside over the family properly." ”

Wu Yuan didn't like to play with Wu Yongan, every time Cui Shi hugged Wu Yongan on the warm kang, Wu Yuan was not happy, and Chun Tao on the side could only laugh and comfort Wu Yuan.

Wu Yongan didn't care, he continued to play with Wu Yuan's hair, Wu Yuan couldn't stop crying, and the nurse found out and hurriedly stopped, "Little master, don't you dare to pull Miss's hair, Miss is crying." ”

Wu Yongan saw that there was no more to play, and he also cried, and the angry Cui Shi poked Wu Yongan's head and scolded him for being unproductive.

The house suddenly became a pot of porridge, and Cui's could only take Wu Yongan to say goodbye, and when Wu Yuan saw that the bad guy who pulled his hair was gone, he stopped crying and grinned at Chun Tao.

Cui stomped his feet angrily and called Dafang a villain.
