Don't they just want to take this old government servant away? So it doesn't matter where you go right now, as long as you arrange the place yourself.
She couldn't afford to stay in an inn, and she couldn't leave him alone right now, so the only place she could go was the run-down alley where she lived.
However, Jixiang and the others are still waiting for him, and the people in the alley are very gossipy. If he takes the old government servant back, the rumors about her will fly all over the sky in a short time.
When she thought of this, Madam Zhang felt a little dazed.
But there was no other way at the moment. If she didn't want her brother and sister-in-law to suffer, all she could do was take the old government servant back.
But she didn't want Jixiang and the others to know her situation.
So Mrs. Zhang decided that when she took the old government servant to her yard, she had to try to separate from Jixiang and the others in advance.
Thinking of it, she decided to do it. After helping the old government servant out of the government office, Mrs. Zhang only looked around and saw no one around, and the old man had fallen asleep again. In a short period of time, the other party I was afraid that he would not wake up again, so Madam Zhang immediately helped the old yamen servant to sit under a big tree nearby. After the old yamen servant leaned against the big tree and fell asleep, Madam Zhang also She immediately rushed in the direction of Jixiang and the others. When she trotted all the way to Jixiang's side, Jixiang and the others were indeed waiting for her at the tea stall under a big tree.
Madam Zhang calmed her breathing, then pretended to be relaxed and approached Ji Xiang and Shen Fanghui. She smiled slightly and said, "I've kept you waiting for a long time."
But at the same time, Madam Zhang didn't seem to notice the man between the two of them.
Therefore, she only asked first, "Why don't you see Mr. Wu?"
When Mrs. Zhang asked about it, Shen Fanghui just smiled and said, "I asked Brother Wu to buy things for me."
"Oh I got it."
Ji Xiang only asked, "Ms. Zhang, can we go back now?"
go back? After hearing this, Mrs. Zhang was obviously a little confused. Could it be that they wanted to live in their own little shabby house?
When she thought of this, Madam Zhang immediately said, "I came here just to tell you that I may not be able to go back today. I have other things to do, so we'll see you tomorrow. But don't worry, you tell me." Wherever you live, I will take the initiative to find you tomorrow."
Hearing Madam Zhang say this, Shen Fanghui and Ji Xiang only glanced at each other, and then Shen Fanghui just said in a low voice, "Okay, we will come back to you tomorrow."
After hearing Shen Fanghui's words, Madam Zhang's expression was still a little stiff, but she still nodded.
She thought the old man would stay until tonight at most and then leave.
So at that moment, Madam Zhang just said hello without hesitation, and finally sent Shen Fanghui and Ji Xiang away, and Madam Zhang walked back again.
She didn't want to wait until she came back behind the big tree, but she didn't see the old government servant. Now she was panicking. She only looked for him everywhere. At the same time, she only inquired with the waiter of the nearby shop. "Excuse me, have you seen the man lying on the tree just now?"
Hearing Madam Zhang's words, the waiter in the shop said in confusion, "You mean the old man under the tree?"
Madam Zhang only nodded immediately after hearing this, "That's exactly the person."
When the waiter heard this, he immediately said, "If you look for that old man, I'm afraid you won't be able to see him."
Hearing this, Madam Zhang immediately asked, "Why is this?"
The waiter then whispered to Madam Zhang what he saw and heard.
"Not long after you left, a young man came. The young man just approached the old man. Unexpectedly, the old man woke up. At that moment, the old man began to curse. The old man seemed to have offended the young man. Then that The young master took care of the old man in just a few minutes. After that, the young master borrowed a hemp rope from a guest near me, and then he took the old man away."
Hearing this, Madam Zhang's face didn't look good. She said coldly, "So you just let them go like this?"
"
Faced with Madam Zhang's question, the waiter still felt a little guilty, but he still nodded.
Madam Zhang didn't give up, she just continued to ask, "Then have you seen clearly what that person looks like?"
Facing Madam Zhang's question, the waiter in the shop just whispered, "That young master has sharp eyebrows and starry eyes. He looks so majestic that even a villain doesn't dare to look at him."
After hearing what the waiter said, Madam Zhang immediately thought of Mr. Wu who was with Jixiang and the others. He was also the same as the waiter described him. Unfortunately, he had no personal characteristics. So although Ms. Zhang thought of Mr. Wu, she could not At the moment, she doesn't have any better way.
And just when Mrs. Zhang was helpless and thanked the waiter, and was on her way to find the old government servant, she unexpectedly met Mr. Wu.
As soon as she saw the other party, Madam Zhang immediately shouted "Mr. Wu!"
When he heard someone calling his name, Wu Chengwei turned around and looked at Madam Zhang.
Seeing that he was really the other party, Madam Zhang immediately asked, "Did the young master pass by that street just now?"
At the moment, Madam Zhang only pointed in a certain direction.
After hearing Madam Zhang's words, Wu Chengwei just looked in that direction and said, "Yes, I was passing by that street."
"Did you see an old man who was drunk and crazy at the nearby tea shed just now?"
I heard Madam Zhang’s question. Wu Chengwei did not answer in a hurry. On the contrary, he just pulled out an old man from the corner. Then he pushed the old man to Mrs. Zhang and said, "Is he the person you are looking for?"
Madam Zhang looked at the old man whose hands and feet were tied and his mouth was gagged. After hearing this, she immediately nodded, "It's him, it's him."
Wu Chengwei seemed a little curious, "Why did you save him?"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zhang only whispered, "He is my uncle. I said he was the one who helped me arrange for my brother-in-law and his wife."
However, when Wu Chengwei heard this, he didn't focus on the important point at all. He just asked Madam Zhang, "Are you really sure he is your uncle?"
Although Madam Zhang didn't know what kind of medicine Wu Chengwei was selling in the gourd, she still nodded firmly.
Then Mrs. Zhang immediately said, "Brother Wu, I don't know where my uncle offended you, but if there is anything wrong, I apologize to you, and please don't get along with this rough guy!"
However, after hearing Madam Zhang's words, Wu Chengwei whispered, "If he is really your uncle, then I can't let him go."
Hearing this, Mrs. Zhang was obviously a little puzzled, and she immediately asked, "Why is this?"
Faced with Mrs. Zhang's questioning, Wu Chengwei said directly, "In short, your uncle is worse than a beast and has no good intentions. I can't let him go anyway!"
Upon hearing this, Ji Xiang was really angry and anxious. She immediately asked, "Why is this?"
Faced with Ji Xiang's questioning, Wu Chengwei didn't answer. He just pulled the old man's mouth and said, "Speak for yourself."
The old man was naturally very angry when he heard this. He just looked at Ji Xiang bitterly and said, "Who is your uncle! I just want to sleep with you. I will help you protect your people. You sleep with me. This deal started from the beginning." As promised, is this pretty boy here for you again?"
After hearing what the old man said, Madam Zhang just wanted to shut up.
However, the old man didn't shut up, and Wu Chengwei asked in shock, "Is what the old man said true?"
Seeing that the matter could no longer be concealed, Mrs. Zhang could only nod helplessly, "What he said is true, and I promised him."
Upon hearing Madam Zhang's words, Wu Chengwei immediately said heartbrokenly, "Why are you doing this?"
After hearing this, Zhang Niang looked at Wu Chengwei blankly and said, "I only have one brother and one sister-in-law. If I don't do this, my brother will be beaten to death, and my sister-in-law will have to bear the consequences of what I have to do." What’s more, she will have to endure even more misfortune than me, and it will be a matter of time before she is played to death.”
"And I'm just being played, but at least I still have value and I can help them. If you were me, what would you choose?"
When asked by Madam Zhang like this, Wu Chengwei was speechless. He knew that what Madam Zhang said was the reality.
After all, she is just an ordinary person, with a modest family fortune, and an ordinary family that cannot withstand all risks.
She has no skills and no connections. All she has is a pretty face and a strong conscience.
If she were her, what she did might not be better than her current choice.
Therefore, Wu Chengwei did not say a word when faced with Mrs. Zhang's questioning.
After a long time, he whispered, "How about I rob the prison?"
However, in the face of Wu Chengwei's proposal, Madam Zhang directly rejected "There is no need to rob a prison, no one wants to become a slave without household registration. If there is no other way, this may be feasible, but now someone is willing to help me, so I don't This method is needed.”
Hearing Madam Zhang's words, Wu Chengwei was speechless for a moment.
But it was Madam Zhang herself who chose this path, so what qualifications did he have to decide his life for others.
Therefore, Wu Chengwei just said, "I understand, but you should also pay attention to your own safety."
Madam Zhang nodded.
Seeing that Wu Chengwei relaxed, Mrs. Zhang immediately whispered, "Brother Wu, can I ask you to do something for me?"
Facing Madam Zhang's inquiry, Wu Chengwei could only nod silently.
"What's up?"
"I want to ask you to tell that girl Jixiang about this. I don't want them to worry about me. Can you agree to this request?"
Although Wu Chengwei found it very difficult to agree to this request, Wu Chengwei finally nodded and said hello with difficulty. .br>
Unexpectedly, Wu Chengwei had it all figured out, but the old man was causing trouble again at this time.
"Are you planning to end it like this? I'm telling you, it's not over. I'm not happy now. I won't do the deal you mentioned."
