“I’m going to pick up Ah Yu and Lilt Jin.” Madam Qian tugged at his sleeve and quickly caught up with Madam Liu, who had a dark expression on her face.
Madam Liu did not manage to meet anyone at the yamen’s side door. She saw that the side door was tightly shut, and she was anxiously walking in circles.
Chu Ziluo did not know what to do as she was being pulled around by Madam Liu.
Madam Qian did not even need to ask as she started to worry.
“What’s wrong?” Chu Xing looked at the two of them in confusion. “Mother, Third Aunt, what’s wrong?”
At this moment, the side door suddenly opened.
A group of people walked out from inside. They were the villagers who had picked up the children from the village.
“Have you seen Lil’ Jin and Ah Heng’s wife?” Madam Liu quickly stepped forward and asked a villager she knew.
The daughter-in-law of the Li family was holding her son’s hand. When she saw that it was Madam Liu, she exclaimed, “Mrs. Chu, quickly go in. Chu Jin was crying just now. We were curious why we didn’t see the scholar’s wife.”
“What?” Madam Liu’s expression changed drastically.
She ran inside and saw Chu Jin standing in the courtyard with tears all over his face. Madam Liu felt very sorry for him. She went forward to hug him and wiped his face. Then, she quickly asked, “Lil’ Jin, where’s your mother?” Madam Qian, Chu Xing, and the others quickly caught up. When they saw this scene, they panicked.
Chu Jin sobbed. “Just now, Mother and I were called away by a manservant. Mother suddenly pushed me into Uncle Han Zhuang’s arms. She was taken away.”
“Where’s Han Zhuang?” Madam Qian quickly asked. This person was the one with the best skills. “Didn’t he catch the people who caught your mother and beat them up?”
“Seven or eight people suddenly appeared in the corridor. After Uncle Han Zhuang handed me over to the villagers, he chased after them.” “As expected, they came prepared!” Madam Liu said hatefully.
“This… What should we do?” When Madam Qian heard that Ye Muyu had been captured, she hurriedly slapped her thigh.
“Mother, did someone kidnap sister-in-law?” Chu Xing finally understood what was going on.
“Yes, that’s what happened. What should we do now? How do we find them?” Madam Qian stomped her feet anxiously and subconsciously looked at Madam Liu.
Madam Liu held Chu Jin’s hand with one hand and Chu Ziluo’s hand with the other. She took out two pieces of silver from her waist and handed them to Liu Hai. “Go hire someone to draw Ah Yu’s portrait. Draw seventeen or eighteen of them. After you’re done, bring them to the Xie family.”
“Let’s go to the Xie family for help.”
At this moment, Madam Liu thought about it and only the Xie family had the manpower to fight with Landlord Wang.
She had to be quick. She could not even leak the news to the other villagers. Ye Muyu was a woman after all. If she went missing, it would affect her reputation and cause trouble.
She also carefully recalled what Chu Jin had said. It seemed that Ye Muyu had already noticed that something was wrong, so she had protected Lil’ Jin first.
With Han Zhuang chasing after her, Madam Liu felt more at ease.
Not only did Liu Hai find someone to draw the portraits, but he also informed Butler Luo immediately.
At the same time, Madam Liu brought Chu Jin, Ziluo, and Chu Xing to the entrance of the Xie family’s residence. They happened to see Butler Xie returning.
“Butler Xie, it’s me.” Madam Liu quickly called out to him. She could not care less about anything else. She lowered her voice and explained the situation. “I beg Third Young Master to help. Whether or not we can save her, the Chu family is willing to agree to any request of the Third Young Master.”
Butler Xie supported her, and his expression was a little ugly. ‘Madam, I know about your situation, but… My Third Young Master is also missing. You… Follow me into the residence first and protect yourself first.”
Madam Liu almost fell, but she knew that she could not fall now. The two children’s eyes were already reddish from crying. She knew that the best thing she could do now was to protect herself and the children, and then pay the money to let others find Ye Muyu..
