Cen House.
A warm stove was burning in the side room, and several servants brought hot water inside and out to bathe and change clothes for the family of three.
An Shi and Xia Yuan both changed into clean clothes and came out.
Xia Lei tugged on the oily and slippery satin material, and excitedly walked to An's side: "Mother, the things in the capital are better than those in our Qingshan Town, such soft and slippery materials, where did we see them?" Come on."
An Shi directly slapped Xia Lei loudly on the back, and lifted his chin slightly.
"Don't be ashamed here, these things are nothing in the capital."
Xia Lei staggered from being photographed, shrank his neck, but didn't dare to speak back.
Xia Yuan looked at it even more coldly, sitting in the side room, it seemed like he was sitting on the main seat of his own house.
"Do you want our family to be ridiculed as native chickens from the countryside?"
"No, I dare not."
Xia Lei lowered his head, but his fingertips were still hooked to the cloth in his hand.
"Whether someone laughs at you or not, your backgrounds will not change." Cen Yishan came from the door with frighteningly cold eyes.
Both An Shi and Xia Yuan rushed forward immediately, without the slightest arrogance to teach their son a lesson.
Xia Lei also bent down in shock.
But Cen Yishan waved his hand slightly, and sat on the main seat by himself: "I have invited you all the way to the capital, not for the sake of making you feel good and delicious."
"We all know." Anshi nodded like a pounding garlic.
"Then what did you all do? You went to Xia Bai'an's mansion to enjoy the blessings, and you don't remember my kindness at all, do you?"
"How dare we!"
Xia Yuan cried out in a hurry, "That bitch Xia Bai'an is actually unfaithful and unfilial, he trapped us two elders and Lei'er in the bloody firewood house, and the food delivered every day is rotten, you see Look... how thin we have become!"
"Lord Cen, my husband is right. Xia Bai'an is just a white-eyed wolf. She seemed to find that we were looking for trouble, so she tied us up directly. She hasn't showered for many days."
When An Shi said this, she was aggrieved and burst into tears.
Cen Yishan looked sideways, and the confidant next to him nodded: "They were indeed in a mess when they escaped, so this servant asked someone to wash and change their clothes."
Cen Yishan's eyes softened a little.
Only then did Xia Yuan dare to raise his head tremblingly: "My lord, please give us some more time, we will always find a way to ruin Xia Bai'an's reputation."
"Some time? I don't know how long it will take until the year of the monkey." Cen Yishan sneered and waved his hand suddenly.
Several servants came in one file at a time, quickly pinning the flustered Xia Lei to the ground, cutting his hands behind his back, and tied his legs tightly with hemp rope.
An Shi was shocked and wanted to step forward to stop him: "Lei'er! What are you going to do to my son... ah!"
An Shi was kicked over and fell to the ground.
Xia Lei cried so much that his nose was full of tears, half of his face was crushed to death on the ground: "Daddy, Daddy save me!"
Shocked, Xia Yuan hurriedly kowtowed fiercely to Cen Yishan.
"My lord, please be merciful. Lei'er is still young, and he didn't get along with his sister since he was a child. It is really difficult for him to do anything about this matter... My husband and I will definitely..."
"It doesn't matter whether Xia Lei can do it or not, but the elders need to know that if you can't do it, your own son will be buried with you."
Cen Yishan interrupted Anshi's words coldly, stood up slowly, his slender body covered the sunlight from the window, the corners of his mouth curled up in a nasty arc, and he clapped his hands lightly.
The servant immediately covered Xia Lei's mouth and dragged him away.
Before Xia Lei and An's could say anything more, several other servants had come over, escorted the two of them out of the mansion, and threw them to the back door, only giving them some broken silver and clothes.
Xia Yuan and An Shi supported each other to get up, but the servant raised his chin slightly.
"If you want to see your good son, you can exchange Xia Bai'an's life."
"My lord, please tell Master Cen that we will continue to do it, but Lei'er... Lei'er can't bear it!" An Shi staggered up from the ground, and rushed straight to the servant, pulling him crying.
Xia Yuan also rushed forward, grabbing the collars of several people: "I am just such a son, if something happens to him, let alone helping Mr. Cen, it will be considered..."
Before the words were finished, several servants picked up sticks and threw them at the legs of the two of them.
An's exclaimed in pain, Xia Yuan's legs went limp, and he knelt down in front of the back door.
The servants all sneered: "I don't even look at what you guys are, but you dare to negotiate terms with our Master Cen, it's wishful thinking."
The servant spat hard on Xia Yuan's face, turned around and stepped into the Cen's mansion.
The door was slowly closed.
No matter how Xia Yuan and An Shi slapped, the back door was closed tightly, but there were more and more pointers from pedestrians on the side of the road.
"Where did the country wild dogs come from? How dare they make trouble at the back door of Mr. Cen's mansion."
"The smell on them is too bad."
"Go away, it's so noisy!"
An's and Xia Yuan were usually powerful in Qingshan Town, but they felt ashamed for a while, they blushed and picked up the things on the ground and left quickly.
When the two ran to the corner, there was a clear voice.
"You guys, why are you here?"
……
East Third Street, Xiafu.
The people sent by Agao returned in a hurry and saw Mo Che in Wutong Pavilion.
"My lord, it really was Mrs. Cen who took Mrs. Xia and Mr. Xia away. It's just that the two of them just came out of the mansion and suddenly disappeared."
"Disappeared?"
A Gao's brows were raised high, "How did you get along with others? The three of them didn't know anyone in the capital, so how could they suddenly disappear."
"Here, I didn't see a family of three. The people who came out seemed to be only two old people."
The servant explained in a low voice.
A Gao felt more and more strange, not only did he lose one person, but he couldn't even find the trace of the second elder?
Mo Che, who was silent for a long time, raised his eyes: "During Qingshan Town, someone seemed to have mentioned that the Xia family was related to a certain noble family in the capital. Have you investigated it?"
The servant buried his head even lower: "The second elder of the Xia family came here in a hurry and lived in Qingshan Town for a long time. There is really no way for the young one to investigate so clearly."
"useless."
Mo Che swept away the official documents on the table, his face turned cold: "Continue to search, if you still can't find it, then go to the homes of various nobles to inquire about the news. As for one missing Xia Lei, if he is dead, find the body."
"Yes." The servants left tremblingly.
But not for a long time.
Mo Che didn't wait for the servant.
Instead, she waited for Nanny Shen from the Prime Minister's Mansion.
When Mother Shen came to the door, she saw that there were many people in a mess in the yard, and even Qian Mingshu and other vulgar people, she just shook her head: "It's good that the old slave waits for Miss Xia and the captain at the door."
Mo Che took the first step: "I don't know why Mother Shen came to the door in person, why?"
"Madam has something to say, please visit Miss Xia and Mr. Captain to catch up on the old days." Mother Shen smiled.
A warm stove was burning in the side room, and several servants brought hot water inside and out to bathe and change clothes for the family of three.
An Shi and Xia Yuan both changed into clean clothes and came out.
Xia Lei tugged on the oily and slippery satin material, and excitedly walked to An's side: "Mother, the things in the capital are better than those in our Qingshan Town, such soft and slippery materials, where did we see them?" Come on."
