Chapter 110 Raising Money
Just as the bandit said, the Lu family received two letters very quickly.

There was a knock on the corner door of the county magistrate's mansion, but when it was opened, there was no one there, only a small bundle of letter paper tied with darts on the door.It is really unusual to send a letter with a dart, the servant who opened the door did not dare to delay, and immediately ran to the main room with the small dart in his hand.

Meng Renfu and his wife hardly closed their eyes for the past two days, Yun Xuemei couldn't hold back and wanted to sleep, but Lu Shi's spirit was obviously on the verge of collapse at the moment, she kept holding Yun Xuemei's hand tightly, as if With Yun Xuemei by her side, she seemed to have taken a reassurance, which made Yun Xuemei dare not leave Lu Shi to rest alone.

Seeing the dart handed over by the servant, Meng Renfu immediately opened the letter, and the three of them read it together.There were two letters, one was written by a bandit asking for a ransom.The other one was written by Qiao Yun.

The bandit's blackmail letter stated that he wanted a ransom of guan, and gave the county magistrate's five days of seven days to raise money. On the fifth day, he put the money in a designated room in a certain inn in Jiangzhou Fucheng. Anyone who follows will be released after the inspection and acceptance over there.

But Qiao Yun said in the letter that the two of them are fine now, they have food and drink, so Yun Xuemei doesn't have to worry, and also said that the seven or eight people here are still kind to her and Qingqing for the time being.

She secretly mentioned in her heart that these bandits wanted to plot against Meng Shaoqing, and asked them to be careful not to fall into the trap.

To be reasonable, Yun Xuemei hadn't seen Qiao Yun write much, so she couldn't be sure whether the letter was written by Qiao Yun's handwriting at first.

But Meng Renfu handed over the letter and asked Yun Xuemei, "This letter is written in Hanli, and the menu posted on the wall of your restaurant seems to be Hanli as well. Let's see if it was written by Ling Ai."

Only then did Yun Xuemei suddenly realize.

Yes!Her kidney beans do not take the usual way, and her usual script is official script!It seems that this letter must have been written by Qiao Yun.

Seeing her nodding, Meng Renfu patted the table and sighed repeatedly.

"Ten thousand and two hundred guan, these two hundred guan are probably the ransom of Miss Qiao, Qing Niang and the others are actually asking for guan! Where are we going to collect guan?"

"Do you have any enemies?" Yun Xuemei frowned.The figure of guan is a bit harsh. In her impression, when bandits kidnap a child from a wealthy family, it usually costs three to five thousand guan.For one thing, some merchants who have money but no status are willing to spend money to eliminate disasters. They pay three to five thousand yuan, and it’s fine when the child comes back. If the amount is too large, it will easily drive people into trouble!

This group of bandits is worth yuan when they open their mouths, and the county magistrate is not as rich as those landlords.
Meng Renfu then told about the past suppression of bandits, and said sadly: "This must be their revenge!"

It turned out to be the case.

Yun Xuemei lowered her head and began to think.

It is admirable that Qiao's wife still protects Qingqing in such a dangerous situation, and they should also pay Qiao Yun's share of the ransom.But the two hundred coins are easy, where can they get the ten thousand coins?Selling his official hat is not worth ten thousand!

"Let's not talk about guan, we must raise even guan!" Lu wiped her tears, gritted her teeth, and said, "Although I am a concubine, my dowry is quite generous. Now I will sell it all No matter what, I have to collect guan! Mother Hu, go get my dowry list and see how many things I can sell immediately!"

Madam Hu was also weeping at the moment. She opened the box to take the dowry list, and said, "Ma'am, your dowry includes fifty acres of land and five shops, but the land is all in the suburbs of Chang'an! There is a steward assigned to you by Da Furen to take care of it, but even if you send the letter to Chang'an immediately, you may not be able to sell all the farm shops immediately, not to mention that it will take five days to get there even if you go fast!"

Lu's tears fell in clusters: "Then what do you say?"

Meng Renfu fell to his feet and sighed: "Alas! I must lose my face and walk with those country gentlemen. No matter what, I will lend ten thousand guan first."

After Lu Shi saw hope, his whole body seemed to have taken a reassurance, and his sanity returned.She held Yun Xuemei's hand, and comforted her: "Don't worry, girl from the Yun family, we will definitely let girl Yun and the others come back safely!"

With that said, the couple got up separately and went to find someone they knew to raise money.

Yun Xuemei stared at the letter from Qiao Yun on the table, scrutinized it carefully, trying to figure out some clues between the lines.

Suddenly, the words "seven or eight people" broke into her sight.

Kidney beans, does this mean that there are only seven or eight people in the cottage?

Not impossible.According to Meng County Magistrate, most of the gangsters in the cottage have been wiped out, and only a few minor figures escaped at the beginning, and now the kidnappers may be those who escaped at the beginning.

This is easy to do.

Yun Xuemei raised the corners of her lips.

On the other side, Meng Shaoqing was tired from crying and fell asleep in Qiao Yun's arms.At this time, the door of the room opened with a "squeak", and a little bandit put a tray on the ground with his back on his back: "Hey, it's time to eat!"

Qiao Yun used the light to look at the two bowls of rice—the yellowish millet porridge, neither thin nor thick, with two slices of pickled melon on top of each bowl, and two bowls of water.

Qiao Yun couldn't help but said, "It's delicious and delicious, so this is it? Not to mention meaty, there's not even an egg. Is this delicious and delicious?"

"You little girl, don't mess around!" The little thief said helplessly: "You two haven't eaten for two days, and you will lose your food if you eat greasy ones suddenly! These two bowls of rice porridge will nourish your stomach and stomach, so as not to spoil your stomach in the middle of the night Noisy."

Then crack an egg anyway!An egg is worth nothing!
No anger, no anger, but Qiao Yun remained silent. She knew that in the eyes of the bandits, she was already being kind enough to take care of their stomachs.

The little bandit said angrily: "Hurry up and eat, we have to take the bowl away after we finish eating."

Qiao Yun had no choice but to shake Meng Shaoqing awake first and call her to eat.

Meng Shaoqing was not picky either. After two days of starvation, the porridge made by Huang Xiaomi revealed a different kind of sweetness, and she finished the porridge with a bowl of porridge.

After eating, the little bandit took away the bowl, Meng Shaoqing was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyelids, she fell asleep again in a daze with Qiao Yun's arm in her arms.Qiao Yun shook tentatively, but couldn't wake up no matter what.

Strange, is there something wrong with the porridge just now?When Qiao Yun sensed something was wrong, she suddenly found herself a little sleepy.

Isn't it right, you have to put drugs in your meal?While swearing and complaining in her heart, she was trying to hold on to the surging drowsiness.

At this moment, the bandit opened the door and came in again, and handed Qiao Yun a pill for her to take.

Qiao Yun was vigilant and asked, "What is this?"

"Stop talking nonsense! If you don't want to be like her, just eat!" The little thief said viciously, "The boss sees you as an insignificant person, so he will show mercy and spare your life. Don't be ignorant!"

There is a problem with the porridge!
Qiao Yun's heart was ringing with alarm bells.
