A Happy Farmhouse: After becoming the group's favorite, the whole family rises
Chapter 83: Adventure in the City 7
The reason why the police officers had a relatively good attitude towards Tian Danian and his sons was all because of what their chief constable said when they came out before.
The two officers also knew some of the inside story. It seemed that the other person had saved the chief constable's nephew, so the two were willing to give the chief constable some face.
Otherwise, Tian Danian was just an ordinary citizen, and those who worked in the government offices and received royal salaries would not be so polite to him.
As for the reason for coming to see Tian Danian today, it is also related to catching kidnappers.
It turned out that after the kidnappers were sent to the yamen, they confessed a lot of things.
This was not the only transaction they made. They had sold dozens of children, if not hundreds.
But everything had been going smoothly before, but this time I was unlucky and ran into the father and son of the Tian family, and was caught.
With some clues provided by the kidnappers, the government has sent officials to look for the children who were kidnapped by them based on the clues.
But the problem of the kidnappers has been solved, and the next step is to solve the problem of the abducted children.
Most of the children were from the provincial capital, and after verification and visits by the government, they had already found homes for them.
The unconscious child, because of his injuries, slept for another day after arriving at the yamen before waking up. After waking up, he confessed that he was not from the prefecture, but when asked again, he refused to tell the truth and just shouted that he wanted to see the prefect.
The officers in charge were puzzled. For such a minor kidnapping case, they could help the child find his home, so why did they need to meet the prefect?
But the child insisted, and finally the people in the yamen had to report it up the chain of command.
When the prefect heard about this, he was curious and came to see the child.
The child told the prefect his origins only when he saw him. It turned out that the child was not from the prefectural city, but from Kyoto, and was a young marquis of some marquisate.
He passed by here on his way to study, and because of his good looks, he was kidnapped by a kidnapper.
When the prefect heard this, he immediately took it seriously and transferred the young marquis to the prefect's mansion to recuperate.
In the past two days, the young marquis, who was only eight or nine years old, recovered well from his injuries.
Upon learning that it was Tian Danian and his daughter who saved him, the young marquis wanted to meet the Tian father and daughter tomorrow.
Kyoto? Little Marquis?
Tian Danian heard word after word, and he felt as if his heart was being boiled in boiling water.
He had only heard such words in operas or in performances by amateur troupes in the past, but now he heard them in reality. How could he not feel surprised and uneasy?
Even after the official left and said that they would come to pick them up to meet the young marquis tomorrow, Tian Danian's heart was still beating fast.
Of course, Shitou, Xiaochun, Xiaoman and the others were also nervous and excited.
Tian Xiaoman, in particular, felt extremely excited.
Is he going to meet some young marquis?
In such a dynasty, he was like an emperor or a noble, an unattainable figure.
Tian Xiaoman regretted that when she was taking care of the young marquis the past two days, she should have taken a few more glances at him. Even now, when Tian Xiaoman closed her eyes, she could not remember what the so-called young marquis she was taking care of looked like. She only remembered the bloodstained forehead covered with blood.
The next morning, the two officers from last night came to the inn early to pick people up.
The place where the young marquis was recuperating had been moved to the prefect's residence. The officials took Tian Danian and his son in a carriage and took many turns until they arrived at a back door, where the carriage stopped.
Tian Xiaochun was curious, so she stuck her head out to look, and when she saw the inconspicuous little door, she frowned slightly.
"Dad, didn't you say you would take us to the prefect's house? Where is this?"
Tian Danian started to explain, "We can't go through the main gate of the prefect's house. I guess he found a corner gate to take us in?"
Tian Danian's guess was correct. The two officers brought them to the back corner gate of the prefect's residence.
The prefect's housekeeper had already informed the servants guarding the back corner door.
After the two officers knocked on the door briefly, the corner door was opened and a woman in her fifties came out. When she saw the two officers, a smile immediately broke out on her face.
"Hey! You two gentlemen are here early. Please come in."
The two officers did not go in. They gave Tian Danian a few instructions and then said goodbye and left.
Their task was to bring Tian Danian and his son here, and the rest had nothing to do with them.
The old woman sent the two runners away and quickly found a smart little maid to lead the way for Tian Danian and his sons.
The courtyard where the young marquis recuperated was a quiet place in the southeast corner of the prefect's residence.
Although this place is remote, it has complete facilities and elegant scenery. It is obvious that it has been carefully decorated because of the people who live here. The servants are also humble and quiet, and they are all busy with their own work.
The clever little maid brought Tian Danian and his son to the yard, then knelt down to say goodbye.
An old man in his fifties came out to greet them, "Are they the Tian family father and son?"
"Exactly."
"I am the steward of Changshan Marquis's Mansion. This time, I went out to study with the young marquis and passed through Beijiang Mansion. Thanks to Tian Zhuangshi's family for rescuing me. This is a great favor. Please accept my greetings."
The old man was very polite and bowed to Tian Danian.
How could he let Tian Danian bow to him? The man's age was obvious. He was almost as old as his father. He dared not accept the gift.
The old man was very polite to Tian Danian and his sons, and his words were full of gratitude.
The people in the house seemed to hear the noise in the yard and asked, "Uncle Zhong, is anyone here?"
Uncle Zhong responded and quickly led Tian Danian and his son into the house.
At this moment, on the soft couch in the room, there was a little boy lying. He was the boy who was injured a few days ago because he was so excited that he wanted to fight to the death with the kidnapper.
Only then did Tian Xiaoman see clearly that apart from the sickly look on his face, the boy looked much more energetic than that day, and his head had obviously been re-bandaged, so it didn't look as scary as before.
"Did you save me?"
The young man sat up and looked steadily at Tian Danian and the others.
He had no recollection of being rescued until he heard what happened from the officials in the government office after he woke up.
Although the boy is young, he speaks very eloquently.
"The Master once said that saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Cui Lin is grateful to you."
