Su Cheng and Yang Guotai led two hundred elite soldiers to Nail Lane to rescue the women who were robbed and took away their children.I thought it would be extremely difficult when it came to the children and heirs; unexpectedly, even leaving the three families went smoothly.Su Cheng breathed a sigh of relief: "I thought they would rebel."

Yang Guotai said: "The common people are afraid of officials, so they only dare to cry and dare not rebel. The women and children who were robbed heard that they had enough to eat, so they didn't care about anything else. The most powerful ones are the two beautiful maids of Ling Tang, who can confuse Hold the male and make him unwilling to resist."

Su Cheng couldn't help but smile brilliantly: "My mother doesn't show her face in real life!"

But according to the list of Brother Xiaoque, he found the fourth one.When I got there, I saw that it was that sensible guy.Su Cheng was startled and said, "It's you! Brother, I thought you were a sensible person and wouldn't rob people's daughters by force."

The man smiled wryly and said: "So what if you understand people, usually you can't get a wife."

Su Cheng took a look at his house, it was no different from the previous ones and Xiaoque's house, they were very poor.Looking at the population of his family, the parents and children are considered to be of normal size, only the daughter-in-law is very thin.Then he blurted out: "Could it be that everyone in your family can have enough to eat, but the woman who was robbed can't have enough to eat?"

The man sighed: "Why don't you want her to eat? My parents are old and my son is young, so I can't be hungry; I usually only eat half full, otherwise how can I have the energy to support my family?"

Su Cheng twitched the corner of his mouth: "Since you can't afford a wife at all, why do you want to snatch it?"

The man said: "It is the order of the parents. When you are old, you must have a son to inherit the incense."

Su Cheng felt cold all over his body: "So you went to grab a pig to give birth." After a while, "You are more hateful than them. They may be ignorant fools, and you committed crimes knowingly." Looking at the woman again , "It's a loss that she gave birth to a son; if she gave birth to a daughter, wouldn't the daughter also have to go hungry?"

The woman burst into tears immediately: "My daughter was born and drowned..."

Su Cheng took a step back and pointed at him: "You..."

The man said indifferently: "I can't afford it."

Su Cheng took a few breaths and calmed Huizi: "Forget it, she will support herself from now on, not you."

The man pleaded: "My son was brought up by my grandmother. If there is no grandson, my mother will not be able to live..."

Su Cheng interrupted: "He is not your son, but the son of a woman you robbed, and has nothing to do with you." He glanced at the crying woman, "Even if you want to marry in the future, she may not be willing to marry."

The man begged again: "Thousands of mistakes are all my faults, and my old mother is so innocent!" The old woman burst into tears.

Yang Guotai suddenly came from behind and stood in front of Su Cheng: "Isn't your mother's son in front of her? Since she is a woman, she should know how difficult it is to give birth. The child who was born in ten months of hard work will be borrowed from your family." Why did it become your family?"

Then I heard the child shout: "I won't leave! I won't leave even if I have enough to eat! I want to follow my grandmother, not that ugly woman!" Wow.Yang Guotai ignored it, and Su Cheng took two deep breaths.

The man looked at Su Cheng and said, "What Master Su wants is to stop the trend of family snatching among the people. It's nothing if I lose my family. I beg Master Zhang to sell me a favor, and I will definitely return it in the future."

Su Cheng's face was like gold paper, he waved his hands and said, "No need, I don't have anything to ask for your help. Even if I really encounter trouble, there are plenty of people who can help me."

The man saw that she didn't like her, so his face turned cold: "Master Su, isn't he afraid of inciting public grievances?"

Su Cheng shrugged: "How does what Su Zhifu did compare to Xu Hong, the general of Jiangxi, and Xie Jing, the prefect of Jiangxi?" The man was dumbfounded.Su Cheng smiled and said without a smile, "Is it the people's grievances in the past, or the people's grievances today? Besides—" She looked back at the alley behind her, "Even if these people want to rebel, do they have weapons? They carry firearms." Nai ordered to take the women and children away.

The soldiers rushed forward, and the old woman and the child cried and cried together.The woman yelled, "My little son told them to hide next door!"

The man was furious, and he swung his arms and hit the woman in the face.The woman didn't hide or dodge, she looked at him coldly.A soldier next to the woman kicked the man, but the man dodged to avoid it, so he was not beaten into a woman.He turned around on his toes and wanted to fight again, but saw four or five barrels of guns pointed at him, and couldn't help cursing: "What kind of skill is using firearms!"

Yang Guotai laughed and said: "I don't want to compete with you. Firearms can kill you, why not use them?" The man was angry and speechless.

Su Chengnai ordered two soldiers to accompany the woman to the next door to pick up the child, then turned his head and said softly, "You robbed the woman with brute force, is it the same as we suppress you with firearms?"

The man stood up and gritted his teeth, and after a while he said, "The magistrate's wife's natal family robbed civilian women in order to open a factory to find female workers..."

"Stop!" Su Cheng was taught by Jia Cong when he was young, and he is very good at playing tricks, "We at Cixiang Village did not rob women, they can choose not to go and go back to their natal homes."

The man sneered and said, "Go back to her mother's house? Mrs. Su's Zhuangzi has food to eat and clothes to wear, so they will go back to her mother's house? Use food and clothing as bait..."

Su Cheng interrupted again: "You can also use food and clothing as bait to lure your wife back home."

The man said angrily, "It's clear that you are using power for personal gain."

"Oh, go to the capital and file a complaint with the King of Yan." Su Cheng smirked, "If you sue Master Su, let's see who the King of Yan will send to take over the mess in Jiangxi." The man was speechless.

While talking, the woman had already carried a one-year-old baby boy back, she stared at the man with hatred in her tears, and turned away from him.The man was disappointed, and after a while he said, "You treat them both poorly." The woman remained silent.

Yang Guotai said suddenly: "I see that your gait is unusual, did you walk through the green forest?"

The man sighed: "I passed by in the early years. Then I made a heavy oath in front of others, never to enter the green forest again."

Yang Guotai said: "Even if you don't enter the green forest, you are so poor that you can't eat enough, and you won't exchange green forest craftsmanship for money?" The man said nothing.Su Cheng sneered, and led the four beautiful servant girls away.The woman with the baby followed closely.

After leaving the courtyard, the woman began to sob.Su Cheng ordered a maid to comfort her.After a while, the servant girl came back and whispered to Su Cheng: "This sister-in-law said that the man had a very beloved concubine in the past. The concubine died and begged him to leave the green forest before he died. He didn't want to be nice to other women. I feel sorry for my mistress."

Su Cheng's maid, Li Xia, said from the sidelines: "What does it have to do with my concubine? How is it good to eat half full?"

Su Cheng waved his hand and said, "Anyway, it has nothing to do with him, it doesn't matter if he has a concubine or not."

It's just that the eldest son was relentless behind him, wanting his grandmother instead of his mother.Yang Guotai was annoyed and ordered someone to scare him twice.The soldier went over and threatened a few words, but he was really frightened.The maid said again: "He is not good to the child, he thinks he is not the mistress's child. He is just ordered by his father to continue the incense."

Su Cheng gritted his teeth, and ordered: "Go back and make people keep an eye on this family, so that he will not be able to marry a wife in this life! Let the soul of the concubine continue the incense for him."

On the first day, more than 20 women and a large group of children were rescued, and they were all sent to Cixiangzhuang in the evening.These people literally ate their first full meal in years.Few people had any friendship with their husbands and in-laws; after a meal, the remaining friendship evaporated.

The next day, Su Cheng and Yang Guotai led people out again, and brought back more than 30 women and a group of children at noon.Back at Cixiangzhuang, the soldiers guarding the gate responded.In the morning, a man came and said that he had heard that Mrs. Zhang, who saved the daughter of the people, was living here, so he came here to tell the truth: he knew that other people had also stolen their wives.The soldiers didn't dare to let him go, they were still waiting.Su Cheng smiled and said: "It's already noon, let's let people have a full meal." Then he ordered the informant to eat.

After dinner, Su Cheng went to see him in person.I saw that the man was the one who led the way to Liu Ermao in Nail Alley yesterday.The man ate so much that he rubbed his belly and smiled flatteringly: "Master Zhang is really rich."

"Don't dare, I'm just a helper." Su Cheng smiled, "You said you knew someone's wife was snatched away?"

"Yes, yes!" The man hurriedly said, "On the other side of Zaohe Street, Chen Dagui's two daughter-in-laws were robbed..." He counted more than a dozen houses in one breath.

Su Cheng nodded, ordered the maid next to him to take notes on a piece of paper, and asked, "How many houses are there?"

The maid said: "Fifteen families."

Su Cheng said: "I'll check in the afternoon, and you'll come back at dusk. If everything is true, I will reward you with 75 Wen."

The person was overjoyed: "Really?!"

"Seriously." Su Cheng said, "If there are any more, after verification, each family will be given five cents. The more you work, the more you will get."

The man stood up immediately: "I'm going to inquire for you!" He ran away without even saying goodbye.

The servant girl looked behind her a few times, then pouted and said, "Girl, this person is really rude."

Su Cheng said slowly: "It means that they are dedicated to their work. We hope that the more such dedicated messengers, the better."

At dusk that day, the man came again and brought a brother.The two brothers each went to one side to inquire, and got a lot of news.Su Cheng and Yang Guotai checked the fifteen companies he had reported to in the afternoon, and they were all true, so he gave him 75 Wen and left the two brothers to eat a full dinner.The two brothers reported another 52 companies.Su Cheng said: "Okay. After verification, it will be 260 yuan." The two were so happy that there was nothing wrong with it, they skipped away.

Among the 52 families, one family had a married wife. The next day, the two brothers only got 250 five Wen, and they were still grinning from ear to ear.On the next day, two more people came to report the news - that person's younger brother was not strict, and he missed the reward for helping the government to rob his wife.With these people's reports, Su Cheng and Yang Guotai saved a lot of energy.

Two days later, an old man came to Cixiang Village and said that his daughter had gone out to buy thread four years ago and had never returned. He suspected that someone had snatched her away.Su Cheng expected that this might happen, so he left the eldest maid Bai Lu to preside over the villa.When Bai Lu heard about it, she went outside and asked the old man his name, where he lived, what his daughter's nickname was, how old he was, where he bought the thread back then, and so on.The old man's surname is Jiang, and his daughter's baby name is Yuwa. She should be 23 years old this year.After the questioning, take the sign and go inside to find a woman to ask.After saying a few words, a woman burst into tears.She said that she was Jiang Yuwa, and she matched everything.She was indeed robbed by someone.And because of countless memories of trying to escape, she was caught, and her in-laws watched her very closely, and couldn't leave the house for half a step.Now a son has been born—there are two daughters before her, who also drowned at birth.After hearing this, Bai Lu led her out to meet Old Man Jiang.The two hugged each other and cried.

Bai Lu shed tears for a long time by her side, and persuaded: "Okay, now that father and daughter are reunited, it is considered that the emperor has eyes."

Old man Jiang said harshly: "I'm going to kill that beast!"

Bai Lu hurriedly said: "You don't want to go by yourself! I'm afraid you will beat others. Why don't you ask some middle-aged men from the upper clan to help you." She looked at Jiang Yuwa again, "Our factory will start work next month. It's very real. This elder sister Jiang is very quick at first glance, and she will definitely make a lot of money by then. Elder sister Jiang, you can ask the shopkeeper to advance a few months' wages, and use it to buy meat and wine for the brothers in the clan , ask them to vent their anger on those who beat you!"

The old man Jiang immediately said: "You don't need to buy meat and drink! Your older brothers and younger brothers still miss you! In the past four years, when you go out and see people of the same age and appearance, you have to pay more attention to them. The third child was even beaten."

Jiang Yuwa's eyes were angry: "If the shopkeeper is willing to advance my wages, I will make a good living! I will never let the shopkeeper suffer." Then she said to her father, "Since the brothers are helping me to vent my anger, a meal of wine and meat is absolutely indispensable. Dad, My daughter knows how to do things, and she will definitely be able to earn back the money for wine and meat."

After hearing this, old man Jiang asked Bai Lu: "Do you still accept workers in this workshop?"

Bai Lu said sadly: "Old man, you have also seen it. There are so many women who have been robbed. It has been five days since our lord and Zongbing Yang have rescued them everywhere, and you are the first one who came to find our daughter. The other family... Xu If they don’t know it yet, there must be those who know it, don’t want to admit it, or can’t afford it at home. They still have to raise children. Therefore, our factory gives priority to accepting them. If there is expansion in the future, we must recruit more workers.”

The old man Jiang frowned: "Why do you still raise children for their family?"

Jiang Yuwa hurriedly said: "It's not their family, it's ours! Father, Mr. Su is in charge, my child is mine! The surname is Jiang!"

The old man Jiang said happily: "Really?!"

"Really!" Jiang Yuwa nodded vigorously, "I'm seven months old now, please ask someone to hold me."

Bai Lu jokingly said, "Since it's only seven months old, it must be that it hasn't been named yet. Why don't you choose a name for your grandfather?"

The old man Jiang was taken aback for a moment, and he pointed to his nose after a while, but he didn't believe it: "Grandfather...is it me?"

Bai Lu smiled and said, "The child's surname is Jiang, is the old man's surname Jiang? Of course it's you. Our master will ask the children to teach the children. In the future, it may be said that this child will be able to study and become an official, and make the Jiang family famous."

The old man Jiang couldn't help but rubbed his hands together and said, "Not one of my sons has married a wife yet! I have a grandson first."

Jiang Yuwa hurriedly asked: "Miss Bai, didn't you say that there are factories where men work?" Old man Jiang's eyes lit up.

"Yes, yes!" Bai Lu looked at them and said, "The match factory, the cement factory and the spinning factory will all be opened. Uncle Jiang, your son will be admitted first."

The old man Jiang and Jiang Yuwa were pleasantly surprised at the same time: "Really!" Jiang Yuwa said again, "Miss Bai, don't you want to fool me!"

"Really." Bai Lu said seriously, "Sister Jiang, you have been lost for four years. Uncle Jiang and your brother are still looking for you, so you know there is love. I don't know how many poor people robbed their relatives, but your family didn't. Uncle Jiang's three sons You haven't married yet, so you know there is righteousness. Such a loving and righteous person, don't you hire him first, and wait for others to snatch it away?"
