"Master, it was this lady who brought the young master back." The gatekeeper said with a smile, pointing at Xia Xiaorou.

Mr. Qian wiped his tears, held his wife in one hand and his son in the other, and brought the four girls to pay their respects to Xia Xiaorou, "Thank you, madam, for saving my son. Madam, you are my son's second parents. You are the great benefactor of our family."

He also asked his son to kowtow to Xia Xiaorou as a sign of respect.

Xia Xiaorou hurriedly supported them, "It's just a small thing. Master Qian is too polite."

Mr. Qian then asked, "By the way, madam, how did you find my son?"

Xia Xiaorou smiled slightly, "I guess this child and I have some kind of fate. When I was staying at the inn, I saw this woman beating and scolding the child, and not giving him breakfast. I suspected that they were not mother and child, so I went up to argue with her, but she actually left the child and ran away.

"I became even more suspicious that she was a human child. This child must have been kidnapped. I also remembered that people in the county said that Mr. Qian's family lost a son who was about this old, so I brought her here to see if it was her. Unexpectedly, the gatekeeper recognized the child immediately. It was the young master you lost."

When Mr. Qian saw the girl tied to the kind horse, he was so angry that he went up to her and punched her a few times, asking her how she stole his son.

The woman was beaten so hard that she had to confess the truth.

It turned out that a servant from the mansion took the young master out to play and was spotted and abducted by a boy.

The servants of the Qian family were severely punished by Master Qian for not keeping an eye on the young master.

Everyone followed Master Qian and beat the boy up severely, making him cry for his parents.

Xia Xiaorou stopped them, "Don't beat her to death. If you kill her, you won't be able to find out about her accomplices or other kidnapped children. It's better to hand her over to the county government and let the county magistrate punish her."

"Yes, yes, Madam Xia is right." Master Qian said repeatedly. After asking Xia Xiaorou and Shanliang's names, he ordered people to arrange a banquet to entertain Xia Xiaorou.

Shanliang wanted to have a meal at Mr. Qian's house.

But Xia Xiaorou wanted to rush back to the village to buy the land of Song Liu's family. If she went too late, the property of Song Liu's family would be bought by others.

In order to raise money to save his son, the price must be kept extremely low.

She couldn't miss the opportunity.

Xia Xiaorou politely declined Mr. Qian's kindness.

Mr. Qian tried to persuade her again and again, but Xia Xiaorou insisted on returning to the village early.

Mr. Qian had no choice but to say, "So, in the future, when Madam Xia comes to the county town, feel free to look for me, Qian, if you have any questions. I will definitely help you if my Qian family can."

"Mr. Qian, you're too polite." What Xia Xiaorou wanted was the Qian family's help.

This is the richest man in the county.

"Master, we can't just thank you verbally. We have to reward Madam Xia. Not only did they find our son, they also captured the boy, which helped our family get revenge." Mrs. Qian reminded Master Qian.

"Yes, yes, yes. How can I thank you verbally?" Mr. Qian's family is wealthy. If he thanked his benefactor verbally, he would be looked down upon if it got out. "Come here, give five hundred taels of money to Madam Xia."

Xia Xiaorou was secretly surprised, Master Qian was so generous!

"Mr. Qian gave too much."

"No, no, it's my duty." Mr. Qian personally handed the silver to Xia Xiaorou.

If you get money from someone, you must help them to the end.

The child has been sent to the scene, but the prisoner still needs to be interrogated.

But she didn't have time to stay in the county town, so Xia Xiaorou pointed at Shanshan and said, "Master Qian, after I leave, if you have any questions, you can find this brother Shan. His master works in the county government, so you can ask him without worry."

Kindness, "..." He glared at Xia Xiaorou. He had to follow Xia Xiaorou, okay?

This woman ran away alone, shouldn't Yan Heng punish him?

Xia Xiaorou nodded at him. "It's broad daylight, there's no danger, your job is done."

She waved to Shanliang, nodded to the Qian family, and rode away.

Shankind frowned and had to stay.

This person was also a benefactor, so Mr. Qian ordered people to cook a good meal to entertain Shanliang. Seeing the table full of delicious food, Shanliang's resentment was finally calmed down.

After dinner, Shanliang brought the Qian family and the boy to the county government to file a complaint.

The boy was a habitual criminal and his accomplices were already in jail, so the interrogation process did not take long.

After the Qian family's affairs were settled, the Qian family left the county government office, and Shanliang went to the back hall of the county magistrate's mansion to meet Yan Heng.

"Ms. Xia went back to the village?" Yan Heng raised her eyes and looked at Shanliang.

Shanliang's forehead was covered with sweat. "Madam Xia said there was something urgent and asked me to deal with the Qian family's child and the boy."

Yan Heng nodded slightly, "Got it."

"There is something..." Shanliang looked at Yan Heng and said, "The Qian family is really generous. They rewarded Madam Xia with 500 taels of silver."

Yan Heng: “Heh——”

Shanliang couldn't figure out what Yan Heng meant, so he raised his eyebrows and looked at Yan Heng.

Yan Heng flicked her sleeves and stood up, "Let's go back to the village and watch the fun."

That woman has always loved money, and five hundred taels of silver is a huge sum of money, so who knows what kind of trouble it might cause.

-

Xia Xiaorou left the county town and hurried back to the village in the evening. After riding the horse to Yanyuan and returning it, she walked to Song Yanbai's house.

She saw that there were many people standing at the door of Song Yanbai's house.

Song Yanbai and Chu Xianyun were arguing with the Song Liu family.

One is not good at speaking, and the other is a mute. How can they win over the tough Song Liu family?

The Song Liu couple, along with a few people, were surrounding Song Yanbai and Chu Xianyun and cursing them. As they were cursing, someone rushed into the yard with a hammer and started smashing the house where Xia Xiaorou had lived.

Xia Xiaorou narrowed her eyes. What was Song Liu planning to do?

Song Yanbai and Chu Xianyun hurriedly tried to stop them, "Sister-in-law, brother, didn't I give you half of the house? Why are you still destroying it? If you destroy half of it, the other half won't be able to hold up and will collapse!"

"That half belongs to our family, we can smash it if we want! Song Yanbai, if you still try to stop me, I will smash you too!" Song Gaofu, the man of Song Liu, pushed Song Yanbai away and yelled at him.

Chu Xianyun was so scared that she started crying.

"Your second son is already in jail, and you still have the time to make trouble in other people's homes? It seems that this second son is not from your Song family, right? He is the son of Song Liu and someone else, right? Otherwise, why would your husband, Song Liu, ignore him?" Xia Xiaorou, who was standing outside the crowd, suddenly spoke loudly while watching the fun.

Song Gaofu was stunned when he heard it, turned around to look at Song Liushi, and stared at Xia Xiaorou, "What did you say?"

"What did I say? I said what I just said. Your second son was put in jail, but you were indifferent. Could it be that he is not your son? Was he born by Song Liu when she climbed into someone else's bed?" Xia Xiaorou sneered with the corners of her lips raised.

In her previous life, she was honest and cowardly, not good at talking back and could not curse back, so she was bullied by the Song Liu family.

In this life, she will return to Song Liu all the words she used to insult her and others.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Mrs. Song Liu immediately jumped up and said, "Bullshit, I didn't climb into the bed!"
