[Red Mansion] Mother Jia has a paralyzed face

For his grandmother's scolding, Jia Hu was not at all unwilling. He also blamed himself for his brother's loss. At this time, his grandmother's scolding made him feel better. Now he only hopes that his grandmother can find his brother as soon as possible.

In this day and age, the means of reconnaissance are underdeveloped. It is inevitable that some accidents will happen to Jia Lian. The most important thing is to seize every minute and every second to find clues. That's why I said Jia Hu, Zhang Rui skipped the Zhen family to take a look at Jia Zhen, and then Turning to Jia Zhu: "Let the servants around you and Lian'er's servants lead the guards to ask you the way you have traveled. Don't let go of all the information. There is no point in shedding tears."

Jia Zhu suppressed tears and nodded, Jia Hu bowed to her grandmother, turned around and led the people to look for Lin Weiwei.

Jia Zhen felt trembling just now when she was glanced at by her aunt and grandmother, and she felt uncomfortable when Zhen Yuyuan and others were completely ignored, but now this matter is really wrong for them, and they feel a little guilty.

Zhen Yuyuan certainly hated the people like Bangzhi for causing trouble, but at this time it was really not something that could be resolved by shirking responsibility, so he took a step forward and said guiltily: "Old Madam, it's really because the younger brothers in the family have nothing to do, which caused Lian's younger brother to get lost. I feel so guilty.”

After hearing Zhen Yuyuan's words, Zhang Rui glanced at the two trembling ten-year-old children beside him. Although they were really young, she still felt very disgusted when they looked at them.

"It's really nothing. My two grandsons are still young and ignorant. The Zhen family's boy is not young, right? The two of them are waiting outside for the elder brother to come out. My old woman wants to know who asked you to take them out. Going? Hu'er or Zhen'er?!" Due to his displeasure, the expression on Zhang Rui's face became more serious, and the two children turned blue with fright.

But even so, the two of them didn't dare to say anything. Seeing this, Jia Hu and Jia Zhen said that they would not let others take their two younger brothers out to play. Obviously, the two of them are not liars.

Zhen Yuyuan also saw this clearly, he knew in his heart that this matter must have something to do with his family, and he was a little dissatisfied with Mrs. Jia's aggressiveness, but he also knew that if this matter could not be resolved, he would go back and make sure Will be punished by grandma and father.

Then he turned his head to look at the two little cousins ​​from the side branches, and asked sharply: "Tell the truth to the old lady! What time is it! If Brother Lian can't find it, you can't even think about it!"

The younger of the two children cried out of fright, the older one shook his body and glanced at Zhen Yu'an who was behind Zhen Yuyuan, and immediately retracted, crying: "Brother Hall, I...we really didn't know that he would disappear, yes... It was Tang brother An who said that the impatient children followed suit and gave us a piece of silver to make us find an excuse to take them to play somewhere else... We really didn't expect... woo..."

Seeing that she was shaken out, Zhen Yu'an glared at the two boys, walked out with a dry smile and bowed down to apologize to Zhang Rui, "Old lady, An was also worried that it would be boring for children to play with us, I really didn't expect that brother Lian would get lost , it was really my fault."

"It's indeed your fault, you are so big and you are so disrespectful! When I go back, I will definitely report to my grandmother! Let's see if she doesn't punish you!"

"Yes, yes, Yu'an accepted the punishment and absolutely did not complain."

Zhang Rui felt disgusted seeing the people from the Zhen family singing and fighting, and didn't want to continue listening to them at all. If it wasn't for Jinling, he would have to rely on the son of the Zhen family to find Lian'er. She really can't wait to slap the past to show them some color!

The Zhen family had a Zhuangzi nearby, and Zhen Yuyuan invited Zhang Rui to wait on the Zhuangzi. Zhang Rui didn't want it in his heart, but he couldn't make it too obvious on the surface. In the end, he went with the past, leaving only one servant Waiting for Jia Zhu and the others to come back here.

As soon as they sat down, Zhifu Yang and Zhen Yingjia rushed over. At this time, the weather was getting dark, and Zhang Rui was worried about Lian'er's safety, so he was not in the mood to chat with them, so he directly asked them to help find someone.

Before the magistrate Yang came, the members of Jia's family could only ask one or two questions about whether the name was right or not. At this time, with his arrival, the guards directly brought the street vendors who might have seen Jia Lian to this village. Come up for interrogation.

Jia Lian's appearance is wonderful. In this day and age, children from aristocratic families rarely have his exquisite appearance, so many peddlers have some impressions as long as they see him, but after the first interrogation, they did not get any useful clues.

But according to the route they traveled, it is reasonable to say that they should not be cut off. Prefect Yang is an experienced man. When he thought about it, he felt that someone among them had lied. Those few status vendors who were nowhere to be seen.

It wasn't that he didn't trust the prefect Yang, but Zhang Rui was really worried about Jia Lian, so he sat by and watched the interrogation of the prefect Yang expressionlessly.

When he arrived at one of the vendors selling homemade rouge and gouache, Yang Zhifu was also a little annoyed that he couldn't get any clues, and when the vendor was brought up, he slapped the gavel and shouted loudly: "Why don't you come quickly?! I have interrogated the street vendors in the surrounding area, the young master suddenly disappeared around you today, the young master’s status is precious, if you don’t tell the truth, I will arrest you all today!”

Zhang Rui was shocked by this sudden shock, not to mention the street vendor, his legs went limp and he collapsed on the ground. It didn't take long for a puddle of yellow liquid to appear on his face, and everyone around him felt a little disgusted.

But the magistrate Yang found out the clue at a glance, and didn't care too much, he patted the gavel again, and said sharply: "I have ordered all the surrounding villages to be guarded. Even if you don't say it, I will You will be able to find the thief sooner or later, but by then, you will be punished as an accessory!"

When the vendor heard that he was about to be imprisoned, he quickly got up and kowtowed to beg for mercy. He didn't care that the hem of his clothes and trousers were wet with the urine on the ground, "My lord, please spare me! Little man, I dare not!"

"This official is here, why are you still afraid?! This official wants to see who is in the place under my jurisdiction who is so ruthless!" There is no deterrent in front of his eyes, and it is in front of the old Mrs. Rong Guo, which really makes him lose face. In addition, the young master of the Jia family is lost under his jurisdiction. Come on, I'm afraid this beam is about to end~

Even though he wasn't afraid of the Rongguo Mansion, he didn't want to be blamed because of a group of unreasonable people.

After hearing this, the street vendor looked at the magistrate expectantly, and said, "My lord, it is true that that man is vicious and has some power. There are old and young among the people, and they dare not speak out because they are afraid of being retaliated. If you say it today Please, my lord, please protect my family~"

Before Yang Zhifu could say anything, Zhang Rui looked straight at Zhen Yingjia. The corner of Zhen Yingjia's mouth twitched, and he said immediately: "With our Zhen family here in Jinling, if we find the young master, let alone keep your family, it's a reward." You are also indispensable, but if there is something wrong with the young master..."

The street vendor was already a little scared when he saw the magistrate today, but he didn't expect that the master sitting next to the magistrate turned out to belong to the legendary Zhen family. Unconsciously looking at the old lady who has been expressionless on the other side...

Zhang Rui and the vendor looked at each other, and said coldly, "Say."

"Yes, Xiaomin said, Xiaomin said." The vendor shrank his neck and said, "There is a family named Zuo in the county where Xiaomin lives, and their son, Zuo Daxiong, has always had a bad reputation. Well, a few years ago they were doing business with children. Some families in the village would sell them if they couldn’t afford to raise their children. However, in the past few years, some families’ entire children began to disappear for no apparent reason, and those who were suspicious came to the door. In the past, I clearly saw my own child, but there was no way to bring it back, because the county magistrate covered up and said that he had signed the contract of prostitution."

"It's true that Xiaomin didn't notice the young master yesterday, but the one surnamed Zuo came to the temple fair, and Xiaomin saw it for real!"

Prefect Yang frowned and asked, "Is what you said the truth?"

"Xiaomin dare not say a word of hypocrisy, please learn from me!"

After Yang Zhifu heard this, regardless of whether the young son of the Jia family was abducted or not, this person surnamed Zuo abducted human beings is also a serious crime, no matter what, he must eliminate harm for the people, and the county magistrate who protected the villain was also in vain as an official for his parents. !

"Come here! Send me an order: arrest Zuo Daxiong and bring him to justice."

The guard took the order, and Zhang Rui waved her hand to make Guard Lin follow her. When she retracted her hand, she was trembling uncontrollably, but her face was condensed, and no one noticed it.

But he said that Zuo Daxiong was in such a good mood that the ladies at home prepared a table of good dishes, and called the good brothers who usually work together to exchange glasses and have a good time. Kicking it away, the sound of "bang" made people's ears hurt, Zuo Daxiong turned around and was about to get angry, when he saw that the people in the lead were all wearing official clothes.

He was a little dazed for a moment, and then he was surrounded by people. He had some bad premonitions in his heart, but he always relied on people to be unscrupulous. Come into my Zuo Daxiong's house, have you heard who I am, Zuo Daxiong?"

But today these guards are not the usual county government guards who saw him being polite, they rushed forward and arrested a few people, while guard Lin led the guards of the Jia family and walked directly towards the courtyard, kicking and kicking Kick open the door and check every room.

After checking the backyard, a guard kicked open the door of the firewood room, and saw several children inside were gagged and tied inside. He glanced at the color of the clothes in the innermost corner, and immediately walked to a Look, turned around and shouted: "Boss! The young master is here!"

Guard Lin rushed over when he heard the voice, and saw a child in his subordinate's arms. Although he couldn't see the face, the familiar clothes were definitely right!

"How is it?" Guard Lin stepped forward in three steps and two steps, and asked anxiously, "Is there any injury?"

"Young master is in a coma. I can't tell if there is any other problem at the moment. It's better to go back as soon as possible and let the doctor have a look."

Guard Lin took a brief look. The clothes on Young Master Lian's body were indeed a little dirty, and he didn't see any serious injuries on the surface. He nodded and hurriedly took the young master back with someone.
