Chapter 383 Just money
Man'er and others disappeared, and the news shocked Yanguan Town.
Most of the merchants were so angry that they kidnapped shopkeeper Tong's children to demonstrate to all the merchants in Yanguan Town.
Many businesses are helping to find people.
Nie Xiaofeng learned the news and ran to Tong Huaqiong to find out the news.
Gu Baishuang did not go to enjoy the lanterns. She took stock of her private room at home.
During the Chinese New Year, she listened to Tong Huaqiong's words and followed every step of the way to cater to Nie Mingyuan. Today, Nie Mingyuan finally took the bait and considered letting her join the porcelain business in exchange for joining the Lu family's merchant ship with Tong Huaqiong.
Although Nie Mingyuan is still wary of her, she can take over her own business with first-hand information without turning a blind eye, and she has made progress at this stage.
Gu Baishuang planned to give herself a way out and exchange all her belongings into money. She planned to invest in her stepmother Tong Huaqiong's ocean-going business.
While she was thinking about the future, she received news that her nephew and niece were missing.
Gu Baishuang was so worried that she quickly summoned the maids and women at home to look after the house and nursery, and went out to look for him together.
She planned to meet her stepmother on the street.
When she was about to go out, a piece of paper flew out and stuck in front of her feet. The nanny beside her picked it up and handed it to her.
When Gu Baishuang unfolded it, his expression suddenly changed.
He said that the Nie family's children were in the hands of robbers and asked the Nie family to prepare two thousand taels of silver.
Could it be that the Nie family’s grandchildren or son Nie Xiaofeng were also kidnapped?
No, my grandchildren have just returned from admiring the lanterns.
Nie Xiaofeng's strength cannot be taken away by a kidnapper.
Gu Baishuang hurriedly ran out, thought for a moment, entered the house, and gave the note in her hand to the woman beside her, who quietly slipped out of the corner door to the street.
Soon after the mother-in-law went out, she saw Tong Huaqiong and others.
Tong Huaqiong had already searched around. Qian's boss He Chao and Qinghewan village chief Liu Tiejian and others learned the news and gathered people from Qinghewan in the town to search.
Tong Huaqiong thought that she had found enough people, so she stood and waited at the place where the child was lost.
She always felt that what if Man'er and others got lost? What if they came back and couldn't see the adults? What if an enemy came to find her to negotiate terms and couldn't find anyone?
"Old lady, someone just sent a note to my wife. She asked me to give it to you." The mother-in-law whispered to Tong Huaqiong.
Tong Huaqiong ignored the shocking name of "old lady", held the note in her hand, and unfolded it behind her back. After one glance, she understood that the kidnapper mistook Man'er Yaozu and others for the Nie family.
Although Tong Huaqiong didn't know where this misunderstanding came from, she was clear that Man'er and others had not left Yanguan Town yet, and since the kidnapper wanted money, he had no intention of harming the children.
The kidnapper wrote very clearly in the note, asking the Nie family to put the two thousand taels of silver in the place designated by them when the Nie family was in trouble, and the child would naturally be delivered to the Nie family at dawn.
This means that the children will not be in danger until daybreak.
"The child is still in town." Tong Huaqiong said.
After confirming this information, Tong Huaqiong's tense nerves relaxed slightly.
As long as people are fine, everything is fine.
"Since the person is still in the town, let the yamen help him look for him." The mother-in-law saw a yamen in the distance saying to Tong Huaqiong.
This was blackmail, and the Gu family and the Nie family wouldn't be able to raise that much money even if they were tied together.
"Don't let the Yamen know now." Lu Zhaoyang shook his head.
Tong Huaqiong's meaning coincided with Lu Zhaoyang's.
Now who knows who took Man'er and Xiaolong Yaozu Duoer away?
Now this group of people is in the dark, and they will definitely pay attention to the movements of the government officials at all times.
If they handed the note to the yamen, if this group of people jumped over the wall in a hurry, Man'er Xiaolong and others would definitely be in danger. What gives Tong Huaqiong some comfort is that the person who abducted the child does not know her relationship with the child.
This will help them operate covertly.
"Aunt Tong, leave this matter to me. If you believe me, we will definitely find the child." Lu Zhaoyang held the note and said to Tong Huaqiong.
Lu Zhaoyang felt extremely guilty.
If he hadn't been meeting Huang Jingshan, Aunt Tong might not have brought her children to the town to enjoy the lanterns tonight.
Even if she takes the children to the town to enjoy the lanterns, she doesn't have to focus on him and Huang Jingshan, so she won't be careless enough to let the kidnapper take advantage of them.
If something really happened to the child, since he would be sorry for Aunt Tong, he and Huang Jingshan would not be happy in this life.
Therefore, even for the sake of happiness with Huang Jingshan, he must find the child.
Tong Huaqiong nodded calmly and handed Man'er's velvet flowers to Lu Zhaoyang, and Lu Zhaoyang took the people there.
Since Lu Zhaoyang has not died in this life, it is because God has been kind to him. Tong Huaqiong believes that people favored by fate will always be favored by fate.
She believed that with Lu Zhaoyang here, the children would be found.

"Mom, Yaozu, is Yaozu missing?"
Liu Yue'e went to the town to enjoy the lanterns tonight and took advantage of the gap between Tong Huaqiong and the Huang family to talk and got into a shop that was open for business.
She went to a silver shop with several young wives in the village, bought jewelry, and pulled satin. She was so happy that she couldn't help but feel happy amidst the compliments of all the young wives.
Just after I came out of the jewelry shop, I met someone from the Huang family, saying that Man'er Yaozu was missing.
Liu Yue'e's brain suddenly exploded, and she was scared to death.
She only had such a son, and if she lost him, Gu Dashu would not be able to spare her.
But she couldn't blame her entirely. Her mother-in-law, sister-in-law and uncle were all there, as well as Su Chengmin, who kept an eye on the children, so she could walk around with peace of mind.
Liu Yue'e's hairpin fell off as she stumbled away. She grabbed Tong Huaqiong's hand to confirm whether Yaozu had lost it.
Tong Huaqiong said: "The four children are missing and everyone is looking for them."
The news from her mother-in-law made Liu Yue'e spin. What made her angry was that a group of people didn't keep an eye on her son.
Liu Yue'e said as if she was furious: "How do you look at my child? How could you lose your child under your noses?"
Tong Huaqiong felt guilty about the loss of her child.
Although he knew that there were many people watching the lanterns, he still put his children in the excitement of the sideshows.
But she didn't know who to blame. In the blink of an eye, the children disappeared.
Faced with her daughter-in-law's accusations, Tong Huaqiong decided not to care about her.
Tong Huaqiong said to Liu Yue'e: "Everyone is already looking for it, and we will definitely find it."
Liu Yue'e cried: "What you said is very light. I don't know where the child is now? If Yaozu is sold to that shameful place, I won't be able to live anymore. Oh my poor Yaozu."< br>
Tong Huaqiong's face darkened: "What did you say!"
Liu Yue'e cried with disheveled hair and began to scold Su Chengmin: "Didn't he ask him to look after the child? Why didn't he watch it? If Yaozu can't be found, I will never be done with him."
Liu Yue'e cried with tears on her face.
Tong Huaqiong was upset by Liu Yue'e's crying and asked Gu Taohua to sneak Liu Yue'e away to a dark and secluded place.
Liu Yue'e was crying and making trouble too ostentatiously.
