Chapter 404: Happy

The reason why Zhao Hongchang married He Wanniang was naturally because he took a fancy to the He family's ability to read, at least better than the Zhao family's ability to read.

Therefore, I want to take the daughter of a scholar's family, give birth to a son, and be a scholar.

You don't have to be like him, although you can earn money as a businessman, your status is not very high.

If his son can be like his grandfather and two uncles, he will win glory for the Zhao family!

After Zhao Hongchang arranged his retreat, he quietly went to the Yue family with his things.

It's just that he didn't expect that something would happen with that batch of grain.

Then Zhao Xiaobao was tied up, and when she learned that her husband was missing and her son was tied up again, He Wanniang fainted directly to the ground.

When she woke up, she cried and begged her parents to help find news of her son.

But he was told that the kidnappers demanded a ransom of 100,000 taels of silver.

He Wanniang was in a hurry, so she gave her parents the seal letter left by her husband and asked them to go to the money bank to get money to save people.

But if you want to take out 100,000 taels of silver, you must make an appointment first.

After all, it is impossible for anyone in the store to directly place 100,000 taels of silver waiting for customers to pick it up.

If something happens, who to talk to?

Therefore, although the He family is in a hurry, they can only wait for two or three days to get this money, which is the answer given by Qian Zhuang.

It's just that what they didn't expect was that the 100,000 taels of silver in this money village hadn't arrived yet, and Zhao Xiaobao had actually been recovered!

Seeing that Zhao Xiaobao was sent back by the people in Futai Mansion, He Yannian and Tian could only pretend to be happy and shed tears and thanked the people in Futai Mansion for their gratitude.

The people who sent Zhao Xiaobao over nodded when they saw it.

It seems that although this foreigner was a little careless and lost people, resulting in being tied up, he also felt that he could do this to a grandson, which was already benevolent and righteous!

Zhao Xiaobao also hugged his grandmother and cried all the time, and then wanted to see his mother.

was told that He Wanniang suffered from the wind and cold because he was tied up, which caused him to be seriously ill and could not let him see him.

Although he was sad and scared, Zhao Xiaobao was also sensible and did not make a noise to see his mother.

Originally, the He family's plan, although Zhao Xiaobao had escaped from the kidnappers' hands, this did not prevent them from wanting to take the 100,000 taels of silver from the money bank for themselves.

As long as the 100,000 taels of silver in the money village are in hand, it is not impossible to raise He Wanniang and Zhao Xiaobao as idlers.

No matter how you say it, Zhao Hongchang is not good to Zhao Hongchang, but He Wanniang is his daughter after all.

And Zhao Xiaobao also has the blood of ordinary He Wanniang on his body, and he is also related to the He family.

He Yannian couldn't tell whether he was weak or guilty, so he didn't want to kill Zhao Xiaobao directly.

When the time comes, let their mother and son get together, and then honestly live in the remote yard in the backyard, he is willing to raise it after all.

Unexpectedly, He Wanniang didn't know how to learn the news of her parents.

In addition to being stunned, he wanted to get back the token he had given to his parents before, and this token had to be left to Xiaobao, after all, he was the only heir of the Zhao family.

It's just that after all, she is so strict with her parents, and her words leak out.

After learning that He Wanniang knew their plans, He Yannian and Tian directly locked her in the backyard, and after picking up Zhao Xiaobao back, they didn't let their mother and son meet.

Moreover, because He Wanniang treated them like this, they also sprinkled the anger in their hearts on Zhao Xiaobao.

Zhao Xiaobao, who was originally regarded as a treasure, can clearly detect the joy and anger of others after experiencing being tied up.

Although his grandfather and grandmother smiled at him, he could clearly feel that there was no smile in their eyes, only disgust.

Up and down, He Yannian and Tian don't care about Zhao Xiaobao, and those servants and servants are naturally even less concerned about Zhao Xiaobao.

Not to mention how thoughtful the care is, even the meals are sometimes cold.

If it weren't for the loyal servants to save him, Zhao Xiaobao didn't know if he would be tortured to death in the He family.

And the person who went to inquire about the news this time was quietly sent out by Cui Qingyuan, and the news he inquired about was not the He family who came to inquire about it in the light of the government.

After all, if he wants to snatch his son-in-law's property, He Yannian will definitely not tell the truth.

Now, the best way is to secretly rescue He Wanniang and return to Nanyue Mansion.

Otherwise, with Zhao Xiaobao alone, I am afraid that the He family will beat a rake.

Hearing the news that Liu Hu brought back, Cui Xiu and Ning Youxi couldn't help but sigh a little, and Zhao Xiaobao couldn't help wiping his tears.

After wiping it, he asked in a choked voice.

"Uncle Liu, is my mother okay?"

After speaking, he looked at Liu Hu with apprehension in his eyes, afraid that Liu Hu would say something bad from his mouth.

As long as his mother is okay, even if all the properties of the Zhao family are given to his grandfather's family, it doesn't matter.

"The person who went to investigate said that although your mother was locked up in the backyard, she was fine.

Master Cui said that he would find a way to rescue your mother as soon as possible. ”

Liu Hu looked at Zhao Xiaobao, sighed slightly in his heart, and replied kindly.

It is estimated that He Yannian and Tian did not poison He Wanniang, probably because she is their own daughter after all.

Tiger poison does not eat children, let alone people?

When Zhao Xiaobao heard this, his tears fell again, and he couldn't wipe them clean.

"That's good news, what's the cry?"

Ning Youxi saw Zhao Xiaobao crying like this, and hurriedly comforted.

"Sister, I'...... I'm just happy, I'm so happy! ”

Zhao Xiaobao looked at Ning Youxi and showed a happy expression, but the tears in his eyes still kept rolling down.

"Hey, okay, okay, I'm glad to know you're there.

I'm so happy today, why don't we go pick up shells again! ”

Ning Youxi thought about it, and looked at Cui Xiu and Zhao Xiaobao with bright eyes.

She felt that this time she followed the fourth brother and Cui Xiu to Nanyue Mansion together, and this decision was really right!

No wonder Sister Huilan and Brother Feng came to live here, she had never seen such a blue sea, at a glance, it was boundless, and her heart was a lot broader.

Not to mention, there is also a pearl farm managed by Brother Liu Hu.

At the beginning, when Brother Liu Hu told her about the pearl farm, her eyes widened a lot.

In her impression, this pearl is something that only rich and noble families have.

Think about the jewelry store when she took her nieces to visit the jewelry store, it is not unprecedented, the jewelry inlaid with pearls, the price is not cheap.

The more rounded and large the piece, the more expensive it is.

Now, Brother Liu Hu actually said that her mother has set up a pearl farm here.

Although it takes a certain amount of time for the pearls in this shell to be available, it does not prevent her from looking at the pearl farm surrounded by fishing nets, and her eyes have turned into countless silver and gold!
