Traveling through ancient times, I led my family to prosperity
Chapter 153 Sheng Xuan's Sadness
"Third brother, you have to think of a way. Dad knows you know a lot of people," Grandpa Sheng begged Sheng Xuan, "If you go to the government, you will be skinned alive if you don't die. Fourth brother, you have to think of a way. We are the victims. We didn't want to marry the bandit leader. Chunhua was forced."
"Third brother, you really have to think of a solution. If my mother and I stay in jail any longer, we might not survive." Cui cried to Sheng Xuan.
Sheng Xuan was stunned by the series of news his parents told him at this moment. He was very confused and let Grandpa Sheng and Cui toss him around like a rag.
Xiao Lan couldn't bear to watch it any longer, so she quickly rescued Sheng Xuan and helped him up, saying, "Grandpa, grandma, we will find a way to deal with your problem. Don't worry, I'm afraid there will be good news soon."
Xiao Lan supported Sheng Xuan as they walked outside. She was a little worried that her father had been hit too hard by so many things. If he was devastated by such a small thing, Xiao Lan would not bear to let him suffer for a family like the Sheng family. "Dad, let's go back to the house first. You calm down first. I'll find someone to get grandpa and grandma out."
"Good boy, you must get your grandparents out. They are old and can't stand this kind of torture." Sheng Xuan said mechanically in a trance.
In fact, Xiao Lan had a plan in her mind. If the government didn't want to release the person, they wouldn't have gone to the trouble of notifying her family to pick him up.
But it is a fact that Chunhua married the bandit leader, and it is also an indisputable fact that Mr. Sheng was accused of being related to the bandit leader. Although Chunhua was forced, the two of them did get married.
This matter is worth pondering. The government office not only notified her family to pick someone up, but also told her through Mr. Sheng and Cui that the old Sheng family was involved with Black Tiger Mountain. What did the prefect want to do? Or what did Shen Liu want to do?
When Sheng Xuan returned home, his mind gradually calmed down, "Xiao Lan, do you really have a way to bring your grandparents out?" Sheng Xuan couldn't bear to see his parents suffer, but he knew how capable he was, so when he returned home, he couldn't wait to ask his daughter another question.
"Dad, don't worry, I will definitely be able to pick up Grandpa, Grandma, Chunhua and the others." Xiao Lan promised.
Because she didn't know Shen Liu's intentions, she had to find a way to figure it out. Just for her father, she had to get the old man and the old lady out of jail. If they continued to suffer in jail, it would probably become a mental illness for Sheng Xuan, making him restless for the rest of his life.
But the Shen family was not such an easy place to enter, but in order to find out Shen Liu's true thoughts, she had to visit the Shen Mansion again. But the reason she was able to enter the Shen family last time was because she was brought by Shen Ada. If she went alone this time, she might not even be able to enter the gate of the Shen family, let alone meet Shen Liu.
As expected, in the afternoon, Shen Ada came to Xiaolan's house again.
"Mr. Shen, long time no see. Are you well?" Xiao Lan greeted politely.
"Miss Xiaolan, I dare not call you by your name, you are too embarrassing for me." Shen Ada waved his hands repeatedly. Shen Liu made a lot of money from making and selling ice, and even Shen Ada's eyes when looking at Xiaolan changed. Now he completely regarded Xiaolan as the God of Wealth. Of course, he was still the kind of person who killed people without blinking an eye. He had not forgotten the tragic scene when the Hu soldiers died.
"We are old acquaintances. If you have anything to say, let's just say it directly. Let's not beat around the bush and waste each other's time." Xiao Lan spoke directly and asked him the purpose of his visit.
When Shen Ada saw the little girl talking to him so rudely, he realized that Xiao Lan must be a little angry because of the matter between Grandpa Sheng, Cui and Chunhua. He had to explain, "Miss Xiao Lan, although your grandpa and grandma are in prison, our general has told them to eat and drink well and never torture them. They are the only people in our prison who have this treatment."
"So that means I have to thank your general?" Xiao Lan said sarcastically.
But Shen Ada was an honest man, and he didn't hear Xiao Lan's irony at all. "You really should thank our general. If it weren't for our general leading the troops to suppress the bandits, it's hard to say what your aunt would be like in the future."
Xiao Lan was not stupid either. After bringing Sheng Xuan back, she called Hu Yidao home and found out some things about the Black Tiger Village from him. She knew that what Shen Ada said was true and that Chunhua had married the wrong person. If she really let her stay with Black Tiger for some time, she might follow the same fate as his previous wives. As for what this fate was, it was of course the road to the underworld.
No matter what, General Shen's bandit suppression did accidentally rescue Grandpa Sheng and the other three. Although the three of them are currently living a miserable life in prison, at least their personal safety can be guaranteed. Thinking about it this way, Shen Liu is really the benefactor of their family?
If he didn't use this as a threat and asked her for things, she would really think so. If Shen Liu wanted to repay the favor, Xiao Lan's inner touch would disappear.
Xiao Lan's guess was not unreasonable. Logically, she thought that she could pick up Mr. Sheng and his men as long as she went through the formalities, because the prefect was the one who came to notify them to pick them up. When she went to go through the formalities with Sheng Xuan to pick them up, she ran into a soft and hard obstacle. Xiao Lan thought about it for a moment and understood. She must have something that Shen Liu wanted, and he was using it as a condition for exchange.
Sure enough, not long after returning home, Shen Liu's personal attendant came, and he was an acquaintance, which further confirmed her guess.
"What do you want from me this time? Didn't he make enough money from the ice-making recipe I gave him last time?" Xiao Lan said.
This made Shen Ada feel awkward. The reason Xiaolan taught him the art of ice making last time was because her family couldn't afford the 100 gold coins, so they gave it to her grandpa and uncle's family to exempt them from military service. Why did the little girl sound like she had taken advantage of them now?
Although it was true that they had taken a great advantage, this method of making ice made more than a hundred gold coins. When Sun Mingyu, the first counselor under Shen Liu, found out that it was a gift from a little girl, he shook his head and said it was impossible, which made him want to get to know Xiao Lan even more.
