Chen Shaokang didn't find the location of the kidnappers at all last night, everything was directed and acted by him.

These people saw that they were just coming to the yard to walk around, pretending to say a few words, and they had so much money to take, and they all happily thanked Chen Shaokang.

When everyone left, the courtyard fell silent, and Chen Shaokang laughed.

Now, no matter whether that person is a real big brother or a fake big brother, my mother will not save it anymore.

Sure enough, the mother ignored the letter that promised to pay the ransom.

The next day, when I saw the letter on the pillar urging the ransom to be paid, the old lady was already unfazed.

The letter said that he forgave the Chen family for not calling the ransom on time, but if he didn't pay it this time, he would make Chen Shaoan look good.

It has been determined that the hostage is not the eldest son, but the old lady is angry at these letters, and it is precisely because of these people's decent blackmail that she has to borrow money from Su Nianyun.

Because she was asked for interest on borrowing money from Su Nianyun, she felt humiliated.

Angrily tore up the letter, she also told Zhao's mother that if she saw such a letter again, she would tear it up directly and not tell her again.

However, Zhao's mother agreed so, but when she saw the bloody letter on the pillar at night, she had to hand it over to the old lady again.

"I told you not to show me these letters again, do you not understand or what?" The old lady was a little annoyed.

"Old lady......" Zhao's mother almost cried, "You better take a look!" ”

As she spoke, she poured out the contents of the envelope, and inside was a severed finger with a neat cross-section, not even bloodstained.

The moment she saw the severed finger, the old lady screamed in surprise and turned her back on her anger.

Chen Shaokang received the news and ran over, and he was shocked when he saw the amputated finger.

However, he still comforted the old lady, "Mother, this is just a means of the kidnappers, haven't we seen it, that person is not the eldest brother at all......"

"No, this is your eldest brother's finger," cried the old lady with tears in her eyes, "this is your eldest brother's finger!" ”

"Mother, how can you be sure that this is the finger of the eldest brother with a cut of your index finger?"

"Your eldest brother, when he was a child, was burned on his index finger by a fallen candlestick, and the scar of the burn is on the knuckle in this place."

Chen Shaokang looked over, and sure enough, there was a scald scar on the joint of his finger.

"But mother, there are too many scars on your fingers in the world, and you also said that the eldest brother was young at that time, and the scars may disappear when he is older......"

Chen Shaokang still wanted to quibble

The old lady shook her head painfully, "Before your eldest brother set out on the expedition, I specially took his hand and told him to pay attention to safety, and I also glanced at his hand ...... at that time."

"The scar...... You can't go wrong, it's exactly the same! ”

Chen Shaokang couldn't have imagined that he had worked so hard, and this kidnapper was really unrelenting.

Looking at the content of the letter again, he said that if he didn't take any more money, he would publicize the fact that Uncle Chen was still alive and all over the world.

At that time, not only Chen Shaoan, but also the entire Chen family will also be punished by bullying the county.

Seeing that the kidnappers' words began to become sharper, it was obvious that they had run out of patience and were ready to break the net with Chen Jiayu without seeing the ransom again.

At this time, Chen Shaokang couldn't help but regret his actions yesterday.

The old lady didn't understand his thoughts, and she was worried that her eldest son didn't have any self-esteem and face this time, so she hurriedly came to Su Nianyun's listening courtyard.

Su Nianyun had just taken a bath, and his hair was still covered with moisture, and Chen Shaokang, who followed his mother into the door, was immediately stunned.

At first glance, seeing the old lady rushing in despite the obstruction of Chunhua and others, she hurriedly put on her coat with the help of Mama Liu.

"Old lady, isn't it a little inappropriate for you to bring the second master to me in the middle of the night?" Su Nianyun already had displeasure on his face.

At this time, the old lady who was worried about her eldest son was in a hurry, and she had no heart to fight with Su Nianyun.

"Nianyun, can the interest you said last time be ......less?"

Su Nianyun said, "Old lady, I also thought about it after you left the day before yesterday, it is indeed too much to ask you for interest." ”

"And the interest of 300,000 taels, even if I give you less than the one on the street, this interest is very stressful."

The old lady was overjoyed, she thought that Su Nianyun was going to say that she didn't want interest.

Unexpectedly, Su Nianyun said next, "Not only the interest, what are you going to use as collateral, old lady?" ”

"And ...... Mortgage? ”

"Yes, old lady," Su Nianyun stroked her forehead, "Since according to what you said, the Chen family's shops are now unable to make ends meet, and it is difficult to earn money in a short period of time......

"You borrow so much money to turn around, in case you can't make money, won't the palace be a bamboo basket?"

"No, no, it will definitely ......" The old lady didn't know what to say.

At the moment, she only thought that she was in a hurry to use the money to redeem her eldest son, and she didn't think about whether she could pay it back.

Probably because she originally wanted to encroach on Su Nianyun's things, but she didn't expect to return it.

"In this way, the old lady will bet a few shops of equal value to the palace, and during the mortgage period, the experience of the shop will be decided by the palace, whether it is a profit or a loss, the palace will bear it."

"If you earn it, it will be regarded as interest, and the palace will no longer order the old lady to collect interest, how about it?"

"You really don't mind if the shop loses money?" The old lady didn't expect that Su Nianyun would do this in the end.

Anyway, the shop doesn't make money, so it doesn't matter how many mortgages are given to her.

Immediately, the old lady really asked Steward Qin to count a few shops to mortgage to Su Nianyun.

Of course, she picked a shop that looked imposing, but in fact, it was a mess of business, and it was impossible for Su Nianyun to get any benefits from the shop.

Soon, the old lady took out the house deeds, land deeds and other documents of those shops, and exchanged a stack of documents for a thin silver ticket in Su Nianyun's hand.

Looking at the thick paperwork in the end in exchange for a fluttering silver ticket, the old lady wanted to cry without tears.

But although she felt uncomfortable, she didn't dare to delay.

Instead, he hurriedly took the silver ticket and went to the ruined temple outside the city that the kidnappers demanded.

The moment he saw his old mother, Chen Shaoan cried bitterly, and he knelt in front of his mother and couldn't help but repent.

The left hand, which has lost its index finger, looks particularly eye-catching.

"My son, you have suffered!" The old lady hugged him and cried.
