"It's coming up, it's coming up, hold on, hold on, don't let go!"
Several guards pulled the rope up skillfully, not daring to pull it too fast or stop midway, for fear that the situation below would be complicated and get stuck in mid-air. No matter how many people got down, it might not be useful.
Fortunately, what they were worried about did not happen. As the rope was pulled up section by section, through the light cast, the people standing at the entrance of the cave gradually saw the top of Song Xixi's head, and vaguely saw someone carrying someone on her back.
Mrs. Yu was excited and scared at the same time. She was excited because her precious grandson had been found, but she was scared because her grandson had been missing for five days and fell into a cave from such a high place. She was afraid...
Not long after, Song Xixi's hands grabbed the weeds at the entrance of the cave. The guards grabbed her in time and pulled her and everyone on her back up.
"Why is this dog slave? My Yuer is here!"
Seeing Ah Xuan's lifeless face, Mr. Yu was greatly disappointed. He immediately forgot how he humbly apologized in front of Song Xixi that morning and started questioning him with an unkind expression.
"Didn't you find Yu'er and deliberately brought this little slave to fool the old lady in order to get the 10,000 taels of Xie Yi?"
Seeing the death of the person who had repeatedly ignored her and frequently ruined her good deeds, Mrs. Yu could not hide her excitement, and she and Mr. Yu began to sing and question Song Xixi.
Ah Xuan's miserable body was tightly wrapped in two loose clothes, so it didn't look scary. Otherwise, this pair of weirdos would have been frightened, and they wouldn't have the courage to question Song Xixi.
It's just that they didn't take Ah Xuan's life seriously at all, and they didn't feel any sadness at the death of the person who had lived in the same house for several years. It was really... extremely cold!
Song Xixi, who was in a depressed mood, didn't even bother to quarrel with the strange couple. She took off Ah Xuan from her back and carefully leaned him against a big tree nearby. Then she tied the rope around her waist again and said to Old Man Yu who wanted to speak but didn't dare.
The person said: "Master Yu is fine."
After that, she glanced at Mrs. Yu specifically, and sure enough she saw the woman's expression change. After meeting her gaze, she immediately looked away with a guilty conscience, not daring to look at her at all.
Song Xixi understood. Looking at Mrs. Yu who was crying with excitement, she suppressed the urge to tell the truth and sneered in her heart.
"Thank you, thank you Miss Song!"
After learning that her grandson was safe and sound, Madam Yu, who had been anxious for several days, finally calmed down and excitedly held Song Xixi's hand.
Song Xixi withdrew her hand and looked at Ah Xuan, who had a peaceful face, and her mood became more and more gloomy: "It was him who risked his life to save Mr. Yu. If you want to thank me, Madam, thank him properly."
After that, she ignored Mrs. Yu and went down into the cave again with the help of the guards.
This time, Song Xixi brought Er Baiwu and Yu Yu up together.
It's just that Yu Yu was overly sad and lacked energy. Faced with Mrs. Yu's cries of concern, he seemed not to hear her and sat blankly beside Ah Xuan, holding her cold hand motionless.
Mrs. Yu rolled her eyes and moved closer to sell it in front of Mr. Yu and Mrs. Yu. She pretended to wipe her tears and hugged the stiff Yu Yu: "Yu'er, please talk, don't scare me, okay? Mom is so serious.
Very worried...ah——"
Before he could finish his words, the stimulated Yu Yu used all his strength to push Mrs. Yu to the ground. His eyes were blood red like a furious little lion: "It's you, it's you who killed brother Xuan, you murderer"
murderer!"
A flash of fear flashed in Mrs. Yu's eyes, and she was about to open her mouth to quibble when suddenly there was a sharp pain in her lower abdomen, which scared her and completely changed her face: "It hurts, my stomach hurts... Husband, help me, help me quickly."
Save our children...ah——"
Mr. Yu pushed away Yu Yu who was blocking the front, and hugged Mrs. Yu in panic: "What's wrong? What's wrong with you? Where are you injured?"
Mrs. Yu covered her abdomen with a painful look on her face: "My child, I have my husband's child. Ouch, it hurts so much..."
Mr. Yu was shocked, and after he realized what he was doing, he shouted loudly: "Come quickly, come quickly, carry your wife down the mountain to find the doctor, hurry up!"
As for Yi Yu who was pushed down by him and almost hit his head on a big rock, he didn't even get a look of concern from him.
At this moment, Yu Yu's chaotic mind was completely clear: it turned out that as early as the moment he lost his mother, his father also disappeared!
Looking at the chaotic scene in front of her, Mrs. Yu's expression was ugly, and she could not see any hope for the child in Mrs. Yu's belly.
However, she still ordered the attendants to carry the crying Mrs. Yu down the mountain, and in her heart she cursed Mr. Yu who followed Baba.
Song Xixi saw clearly and knew that she didn't need her reminder. With Mrs. Yu's shrewdness, she should have already doubted Mrs. Yu.
As for how to deal with it, it depends on her heart, which is more important, her eldest grandson whom she has loved for many years, or the woman who harmed her eldest grandson and the child in her belly.
Without the noisy pair, Song Xixi went around the cave and brought up the four men who were still unconscious one by one.
In the end, she was so tired that she didn't even have the strength to lift her arms, so she was carried down the mountain by several guards.
As for the other two missing people, she and Erbaifu searched again before bringing them up, but found no trace of any living people.
As expected, they must have fallen into a dangerous underground river in the dark, and were washed away to no one knows where, with almost no chance of survival.
Song Xixi slept all the way while being carried, and only woke up to the sound of two hundred and five when she arrived at the Yamen, just in time for the Yamen's meal.
Tired and hungry, the two masters and pets finished two full bowls of rice. If their sanity hadn't been there, they could have finished the third bowl.
After eating and drinking enough, Song Xixi rested in his usual house, accompanied by two hundred and fifty loud snores all night long.
The next morning, she had not dreamed a single thing and struggled to wake up amidst the screams of 250.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he took Gouzi to the front office, said hello to Du Wei and then went home, Mrs. Yu came to the door with a generous thank you gift.
In addition to the ten thousand taels of silver promised at the beginning, there were also more than a dozen gift boxes of various sizes, containing fruit, tea, wine and other items.
Song Xixi was not polite and accepted the 10,000 taels of silver notes presented by Mrs. Yu. Without counting, she took out two and gave them to Du Wei, asking him to hand them over to the four guards who had also worked hard all day yesterday.
Du Wei accepted it for his own bodyguard.
Mrs. Yu, however, did not leave. When Du Wei left, she waved back and asked in a low voice, "Miss Song, did Ah Xuan say anything to you before he left?"
Song Xixi weighed the thick stack of banknotes in her hand and asked, "Does the old lady want him to say anything to me?"
Mrs. Yu didn't expect that she would ask this, and suddenly smiled: "Miss Song is young, but she is smart and insightful!"
Song Xixi also smiled: "Old Madam, thank you."
Mrs. Yu put away her smile and said in a deep voice: "I'm not afraid of Miss Song's jokes. Yu'er's father is too weak to take on a big responsibility. Sooner or later, Yu'er will be the leader of the Yu family, but..."
