After entering the book, the young cannon fodder brought his short-lived mother to fly happily

Zhao Susu's heart moved.

She was alone and weak, and it was impossible for her to rescue A Yu from Qihonglou, and she couldn't even snatch her away from Meng Cheng.

She had no relatives or friends in the county town and didn't know anyone. Even if she wanted to find someone for help, she didn't know who to turn to.

She had no money left and couldn't hire anyone.

But now, she found that she still had a way to go.

She immediately rushed to the yamen.

But two people guarding the yamen gate stopped her.

At this time, Zhao Susu was thin, with cracked lips. When she opened her mouth, there was blood on her teeth, and her right shoulder was also stained red with blood.

The man on the left asked, "What do you want?"

"I want to sue the authorities!"

"Do you have a complaint?"

Zhao Susu was stunned. Where did she get the complaint?

Seeing her shaking her head, the yamen runner on the right looked at her and said, "You can't barge into the yamen without permission. If you want to sue an official, you must submit a complaint first."

Zhao Susu grabbed the man's collar as if grabbing a life-saving straw: "Please let me go in and report to the authorities. I want to save my daughter. Someone is kidnapping children and forcing decent girls into prostitution!"

The two yamen runners were stunned. Kidnapping and selling children, forcing women into prostitution?

This is no small matter.

The laws of the Shang Dynasty were very lenient towards kidnapping, but husbands selling their wives and parents selling their children were actions permitted by the government.

The yamen runner on the right saw that she was crying pitifully, and since it was such a serious matter, he immediately said, "If what you reported is true, you can beat the drum to report the case. If the case is true, the county magistrate can handle it in time. But if you lied, you will be beaten with thirty sticks!"

Zhao Susu picked up the drumstick.

The yamen runner on the left reminded: "Young lady, be careful when beating the drum. If you lose, you will be beaten to death with thirty strokes of the cane!"

Zhao Susu knocked without hesitation.

As soon as the drum sounded, the county magistrate Yang Zhiya, who was handling affairs in the back court, immediately stood up and three shifts of yamen runners arrived.

With a majestic sound, the water and fire staffs struck the ground.

The two yamen runners outside led Zhao Susu in.

After hearing Zhao Susu's first complaint, Yang Zhiya's brows knitted together. He turned around and ordered, "Captain Wang, take someone to check it out. Bring all the relevant people here, and I will interrogate them in court!"

He added, "Zhao, go with Captain Yang and identify the scene. If Qi Honglou really forced a decent girl to marry, there will be legal sanctions!"

Captain Wang immediately took the order and took Zhao Susu to Qihonglou.

At this time, Qihonglou was in chaos.

The girls who were sleeping during the day in the building were woken up. They stuck their heads out from the second floor or came to the corridor and looked down at the excitement on the first floor.

The little girl in light-colored clothes was really fierce. She was small, had beautiful eyes and eyebrows, and was adorable, but wherever she went, porcelain was broken, tables fell, and curtains were torn everywhere.

Mother Yuan was so angry that she could no longer maintain her previous leisurely and contented appearance. She put her hands on her hips and cursed: "Are you all dead? You can't even catch a child? Bring a few more people and catch her for me."

Meng Cheng was not feeling well over there either, Meng Jiabao was still lying on the ground motionless. Meng Cheng was hit in a critical position by his son, and he thought the pain would go away after that, but somehow the pain came in waves.

He couldn't even straighten his back, so naturally he couldn't pay attention to what was happening to his beloved son.

But as Meng Yu was running around, the thugs who were chasing him were already so angry that they had no time to pay attention to their steps.

Meng Cheng was stepped on several times and was in so much pain that he couldn't even scream.

I don’t know if that little girl did it on purpose, she always ran towards him.

He felt like his legs were going to be broken, and not caring about the pain in his vital parts, he quickly moved to the corner. Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he saw his beloved son lying there, so he quickly moved over and pulled his son to the corner as well.

After all these ordeals, the pain became even worse.

Looking at Meng Yu running around the field, he gritted his teeth in hatred.

Catch her, catch her quickly, beat her to death. Mother Yuan will definitely not let this money-losing girl go, right?

It was not known whether his prayers had worked, or Meng Yu was tired after running for so long, or whether it was because of the increase in the number of people, Meng Yu had nowhere to escape, as a thug grabbed her collar from behind.

The small body was immediately lifted up.

Mother Yuan shouted anxiously: "Don't let it break, tie it up for me!"

The loss today was heavy, and the damaged items were probably worth dozens of taels of silver. However, this little girl's eyebrows and features were like those painted, her face was white jade, and her face was delicate and delicate. At such a young age, she had already begun to show signs of beauty. When she grows up, she will definitely be much more beautiful than her mother.

She secretly looked at Meng Cheng, a man with ugly features and drooping eyebrows, with disdain. It is true that a bad bamboo can produce good bamboo shoots.

With this child around, she didn't care too much about the money she lost, but she was still angry.

Such a noisy child needs to be treated properly.

We can’t let her be locked up with her mother. We should lock her up in a separate room.

The thugs over there had already tied up Meng Yu as instructed by Yuan's mother.

They used a thin hemp rope, and Yuan's mother also instructed: "Tie it gently. The baby's skin is tender, and if the skin is broken and bleeds, it will leave a scar." You won't be able to sell it for a good price in the future!

Despite all the instructions, Meng Yu's small body was still tied up like a dumpling.

"Take her to the room on the west side of the third floor!"

The thugs were just about to carry Meng Yu, who was wrapped like a dumpling with only her head sticking out, upstairs when they suddenly heard hurried footsteps at the door.

A group of police officers rushed in, led by Captain Yang, who strode in. Behind him, a young woman with blood on her body and blood at the corners of her mouth stumbled in.

She saw Meng Yu at a glance and rushed over immediately: "Ayu!"

Meng Yu cried miserably, "Mother!"

Zhao Susu was blocked by the thugs, but she was still rushing over there desperately: "Ayu, let my Ayu go! Ayu, don't be afraid, mother is here to save you!"

Meng Yu burst into tears, tears streaming down her fair face like beads from a broken string, she said pitifully, "Mom, Mom... they are bad people, they want to arrest me..."

Mother Yuan was so shocked that her eyes almost fell out. Wasn't this woman sold to her by Meng Cheng more than an hour ago?

Didn’t she have someone tie her up and lock her up on the third floor?

There were streaks of blood on her body, and there seemed to be marks of ropes, but she appeared here.

Who let her out?

Captain Wang took a look at the scene of the mother and daughter meeting, then turned around with a sullen face and said, "Yuan Cuihua, I didn't expect you to be successful enough to even buy a girl from a decent family. You think your Qihonglou business is too good, right?"

Mother Yuan said hurriedly, "Captain Wang, you really wronged me. She is from a good family, but didn't the laws of our country say that a husband selling his wife and parents selling their children are family affairs? It was this woman's husband who sold his wife and daughter. I was just the buyer. It has nothing to do with me. I spent real money!"

As she spoke, she looked around and happened to see Meng Cheng hiding in the corner. She immediately pointed and said, "Master Yang, this woman's husband is right here. He sold her himself. If you don't believe me, go ask!"
