148 - Man is coming
Yaojia Village, Xiaoling County, Changsha County, Jingzhou.
As the oldest elder in the Yao family, Yao Qing was worried at this time.
Two of his nephews were arrested and put in the county jail, and I still don't know what the situation is.
Redeem it with money, and the county may not release people.
And a year ago, these people of the same clan and clan in the village only scraped together one million silver money to buy the position of county magistrate for Yao Yu, the son of the eldest brother's family.
It's only been a year, and I want to ask my clansmen to pool money to ransom people, which is not good to say.
Yes, Yaojia Village is united compared to other villages, but the problem is that it doesn't make such sense.
When the eldest brother dies, he is the helmsman in this door, and all affairs, big and small, must be pressed on his head.
Not to mention anything else, these sons of the eldest brother are treated as if they were their own sons, if something happens to the third brother Yao Fan and the third brother Yao Wei, what kind of face do they have to meet the eldest brother.
You must know that when the eldest brother was alive, he took care of the stability of this big family.
Thinking of this, Yao Qing couldn't help but sigh.
"Second brother."
Just as Yao Qing sighed, Yao Zheng came from outside.
He is about forty years old and an old carpenter in the village.
It's just that in the past few months, his carpenter's shop has not been opened again.
There is no way, there is an accident at home, how can he do business with peace of mind.
"Oh, the third child, how is it, have you sent something to Xin'er Yao'er and them to eat?"
Yao Zheng nodded, and said bitterly at the end: "Second brother, it's not okay to always hide it like this, Xin'er asked me how the situation is today, and I don't know how to tell him."
"You must not tell Xin'er, you also know Xin'er's temper, although he doesn't like to talk, but he is really stubborn, how could he let Fan Erweier suffer so much because of him."
Yao Zheng sighed: "Alas, I don't know if Xiu'er found Yu'er and Leopard. Now, only Yua can handle this matter. I just don't know if they'll be able to catch up."
Yao Qing was silent, kept his head down for a long time, pulled a box from the side, opened it, and it was full of silver coins, which was enough.
Seeing this, Yao Zheng was very surprised: "Second brother, what do you mean by this?"
"I saved this money for my two boys to marry. There are also some clansmen in the village who have put it together. You take the money and go to the county to find the county Cheng Wenxu. He is a celebrity around the county commander, and he begs him to help take care of Fan Er and Wei'er."
Yao Zheng hissed: "But second brother, Wenxian Cheng never takes money from others."
"Then find a way to let him take it. No matter what, we can't let anything happen to Fan Erweier."
Seeing Yao Qing's attitude so resolute, Yao Zheng nodded: "Okay, then I'll go."
With that, Yao Zheng left with a box of money.
At noon the next day, he returned with the money.
Seeing this, Yao Qing was shocked: "What? Wen continued, he refused?"
Yao Zheng hurriedly shook his head: "No, no, no. Wen Xu agreed."
Yao Qing was even more surprised: "Then how did you bring all this money back?"
"Well, it's such a second brother, Wen Xu doesn't want it. He also said that as a parent official, it is right to be the master of the people. He also knows that we are not at fault in this matter, and will help take care of Fan Er and Wei'er. It's just..."
Yao Qing frowned: "It's just what?"
"Wen continued, it's just that the county commander is very angry this time, he will help take care of it for a month at most, if there is no solution within a month, then Fan Er and Wei'er will most likely not be saved."
When he said this, Yao Zheng had a gloomy look on his face.
Yao Wei is his only son, but now, he only has a month to live, how can he not be sad as a father?
Thinking like this, Yao Wei sighed again.
Yao Qing heard it in his ears and was anxious in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it, so he could only pray silently in his heart
Pray for auspicious people to have their own heavenly appearance. Pray that Yao Xiu found Yao Yu and that the two could come back in time.
···
Time passed day by day, from Runan to Changsha for thousands of miles, Yao Yu did not dare to stop for a quarter of an hour, and there was basically no rest along the way.
Thanks to the snow treading black horse given to him by Tuoba Yilu, this horse is really fast.
Two days after departure, I entered the territory of Xiaoling County, Changsha County.
When he saw the boundary monument in Xiaoling County, Yao Yu was completely relieved.
After a simple meal on the side of the road, the group turned around and headed towards Yaojia Village.
With the delay of time, the people of Yaojia Village have become a little unable to sit still.
In three or four days, Yao Fan and Yao Wei will be beheaded. As fellow clansmen, people are inevitably sad in their hearts.
As for Yao Qing, his anxious mouth is bubbling these days.
That's not all, with the words of Yao Zheng, who came back from delivering food in the mountains, it made Yao Qing's heart fall into the bottomless abyss.
"Second brother, Xin'er, that kid didn't know where he heard the news, and he had already gone to Xiaoling County alone to find the county order to surrender."
Yao Qing sighed when he heard this, his face full of shock: "What! Xin'er has gone to surrender!"
Yao Zheng nodded.
Yao Qing stomped his feet when he heard this: "Why is this letter so confused. Yao Bao, what about the kid, I asked him to look at Brother Ta Xin, and he just watched it like that."...
"Well, Bud is kneeling outside right now. But second brother, don't blame Bao'er. You also know that whatever temper Xin'er has, he will definitely do what he believes. Bud can't stop it."
said so, but Yao Qing was still very angry.
No, he threw off his sleeves and took his clothes, and was about to set off for Xiaoling County, and hurriedly stopped Yao Xin.
Walking out of the door, Yao Bao was kneeling outside with a ashamed face, and when he saw his father coming out, he couldn't raise his head even more.
No, Yao Qing snorted angrily: "Useless things, you can't look at your brother Xin, I'll clean you up when I come back."
With that, Yao Qing hurriedly walked out.
However, before he could get out of the courtyard, a member of the same clan ran in from outside.
"Uncle Qing, here! They're coming!"
Yao Qing was stunned when he heard this, and looked at the person who said this with curiosity on his face: "Erhu, who did you say is coming?"
When the words fell, Yao Qing felt a pang in his heart: "Could it be that the county officials have come to arrest people!"
The clansman named Erhu hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, no, it's not from the county. It's Xiu'er who came back with Brother Yu and Brother Leopard."
As soon as he heard this, Yao Qing was stunned on the spot, and for a long time, he stomped his foot vigorously and sighed, "Finally back." Quick, quick, third, Yu'er, they're back!"
Yao Zheng, who followed behind, was also full of joy, and immediately, the group rushed out.
Yao Zheng didn't forget to say when he passed Yao Bao: "Why are you still kneeling, your brother Yu is back, go, go over and continue."
Yao Bao agreed, got up and patted the dirt on his knees, and hurriedly followed.
