Hearing Chu Zixuan's words, Lin Ruyi's back shuddered. If that was the case, Chu Zijun must be in danger.

The Tianjiang water is still very cold, not to mention that Chu Zijun can't swim at all, and he will drown soon if he falls.

"Come on, follow me to find the cook's son." Lin Ruyi walked downstairs quickly, her heart was already full of turmoil.

Several people went to the place where the servants lived and found the cook who was cooking.

The cook seemed quite honest, but when she saw them coming to her, she was obviously a little nervous.

"Is there something for the nobles to find slaves?" Cook Li squeezed her apron nervously, thinking that there was something wrong with the food she cooked.

"Is your son there? We need to ask him about something." Lin Ruyi tried to keep her tone as calm as possible, and asked him to find out the situation first.

When Cook Li heard that she was looking for her son, she was obviously taken aback, and then asked: "What are the nobles looking for the servant's son? But he is too naughty to offend the nobles? If so, please ask the nobles to read it at his age." Small……"

Lin Ruyi couldn't wait any longer, and directly interrupted Cook Li's words. "I told you to call him, and you can call him."

Chef Li was frightened by Lin Ruyi's words, so she nodded quickly.

Before coming here, Manager Wang said that this time he was serving a few nobles, so there should be no mistakes, and if something happened, he would take care of it himself.

This time, everyone got a salary increase because they were serving noble people.

It's not easy for her as a widow to bring a child to make money, so she was extra careful this time.

She went to find her son in the house, and asked in a low voice: "Liu'er, tell mother, did you offend the nobleman on the second floor?"

Chen Liu'er turned pale, then lowered her head and shook her head, "No, no."

Chef Li thought that her son was usually very obedient, so he would definitely not cause trouble. Those people must have made a mistake.

"The nobles on the second floor ask you for questions. You can go with your mother. What they ask you, you just answer truthfully." Cook Li took her son's hand and walked out.

But Chen Liu'er was reluctant, walked very slowly, and even struggled slightly.

But she was still pulled in front of Lin Ruyi and the others by Chef Li.

When Chen Liu'er saw Lin Ruyi, she immediately hid behind her mother.

Lin Ruyi saw that Chen Liuer was avoiding her eyes, so there was clearly something wrong.

Immediately asked Chun Lu to catch him, and asked sullenly, "Where did you hide my son?"

Maybe it was because her expression and tone were too frightening, Chen Liu'er cried out of fright.

"Mother, save me, save me." After all, Chen Liu'er was only seven years old, and she would still be afraid when confronted by adults.

Seeing this, Chef Li hurried forward and said with a smile on her face, "Gentlemen, did you make a mistake? My son doesn't even know your son, let alone hide him."

"I didn't ask you, I asked him. Tell me quickly, or I will let my maidservant chop off your hand." Lin Ruyi deliberately threatened Chen Liu'er fiercely. If he was not fierce, he would definitely not tell the truth.

Chen Liu'er was really frightened, cried even louder, and stammered, "I, I tied him up, and then, I locked him in the woodshed."

"Impossible, my uncle and I went to see it, and there was no one in the woodshed." Chu Zixuan said immediately.

Lin Ruyi frowned, and stared at Chen Liu'er fiercely.

Chen Liu'er trembled, and quickly said, "It's in the firewood room, you can't find it, only I know where it is."

"Lead the way." Upon hearing this, Lin Ruyi immediately ordered Chen Liu'er to take them to Chu Zijun.

Knowing that he didn't push Chu Zijun overboard, she was only half relieved.

Cook Li was frightened when she heard this, these are all nobles, her son dared to tie up the nobles' sons, they must be dead.

Her body couldn't stop trembling, her face was ashen, her hands clenched into fists in her sleeves, she strode up to Chen Liu'er, and slapped him hard.

"You bastard, why did you tie up the young master? Don't you want to live? You bastard, it's because I'm busy making money, I didn't educate you well, and made you do such a rebellious thing. Look I won't beat you to death, you bastard." Cook Li raised her hand and slapped Chen Liu'er on the face again.

The sound resounded throughout the cabin.

I saw Chen Liu'er's face turned red and swollen, and the corners of his mouth were bloodshot.

Lin Ruyi frowned slightly. In fact, she didn't feel sorry for Chen Liu'er, she just wanted to find Chu Zijun as soon as possible.

"You'll educate your son later. I'm going to find my son now. If my son is fine, he can talk about anything. If he makes a mistake, you mother and son should be prepared." Lin Ruyi said calmly.

Chef Li knelt down in front of Lin Ruyi, crying and pleading: "My lord, it's because I didn't teach him well. If you want to punish him, you can punish me. You can kill him or cut him up. The child is still young. I beg you to raise your hand and let him go." pass him."

"Don't you understand people's language? I'm going to find my son now. If you waste any more time, I'll throw you down to feed the fish." Lin Ruyi is upset that she hasn't found Chu Zijun now, and this woman is still delaying Time made her even more irritable, and she yelled directly.

The sound just now alarmed Zhou Jingyu and the others, they had all come down, and seeing such a scene, they all knew what was going on.

The steward turned pale with fright, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back.

"Hurry up and take Mrs. Chu to find Master Chu." Steward Wang yelled loudly.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Chen Liu'er led them to the woodshed.

Chen Liu'er led Lin Ruyi and the others to the innermost part of the firewood room, and then hugged a bundle of corn stalks away, and saw Chu Zijun lying inside, curled up in a ball, his face turned blue, his hands and feet were tied He stopped, with a rag stuffed in his mouth.

"Zijun." Lin Ru immediately walked over upon seeing the complaint, squatted down and removed the rag from Chu Zijun's mouth, and quickly untied the rope in his hand.

Qiu Ying went to help, took out a dagger and cut the rope.

Lin Ruyi probed Chu Zijun's breath with her hand, and could still feel her weak breathing, so she breathed a sigh of relief.

Qiuying picked up Chu Zijun and strode out.

Lin Ruyi looked at Chu Zijun's bluish face, and gradually got better.

Chu Zixuan followed Qiuying, looked at his unconscious brother, took his little hand, and shouted in a trembling voice: "Brother, wake up, brother."

Qiuying carried Chu Zijun to the deck, and Lin Ruyi asked her to put him down first, and pinched him among the people.

Chu Zijun's eyelids moved, and then slowly opened his eyes.

"Mother." Chu Zijun called out weakly, then sat up and cried loudly.

Hearing Chu Zijun cry, Lin Ruyi's heart was about to break, and she hugged him tightly in her arms.

"Don't be afraid, Junjun, mother is here, mother is here." Lin Ruyi's voice was choked up, and now she was a little scared, and she couldn't imagine that they didn't find him missing, and if they dragged on for a few hours, he must have suffocated.

Suddenly Cook Li stood on the bow of the boat and said loudly: "Mrs. Chu, I have no way to teach my son, please let him go, he is still young and ignorant, and I am willing to pay for this stupid thing. I will make amends to the young master, please let him go."

After Li Chef finished speaking, she jumped down directly.
