"Gong Dezhi, a native of Dafang County, Hejian, was originally a loan shark businessman, and he was not considered a big businessman in Hejian, but he was the first batch of Hejian merchants to join Sihai Commerce He has a very high status among them, he is the top person in charge of Sihai Trading in Hejian, and his net worth has also doubled several times in the past few years. It turns out that Gong Dezhi, as that person said, has a great background and a strong background , It turns out that it is the Four Seas Commerce and Trade that we conquered the East Mansion." Mei Hua stood in front of Wu Ya, talking about the news that was found out this afternoon.

"So you are also from Zhengdong Mansion?" Wu Ya exclaimed, "Then, have you found out about the Shang family?"

Mei Hua shook her head, "The people in Bird Clothes Lane are silent, but the people outside Bird Clothes Lane don't know much about it."

"Did the Shang family move out of here?"

"Impossible. If the Shang family moved out of here, why are the neighbors of the Shang family so afraid and evasive, Wu Ya, I have a very bad feeling that something happened."

"What should we do now? We can't stay here for a long time, and you know that we have a deadline for reporting." Wu Ya said.

"I know, let's go to Wuyi Lane again tonight." Mei Hua gritted her teeth, "I don't feel comfortable if I don't figure this out. Fatty Shang is watching me from the sky."

"Evening?"

"Do you still remember the middle-aged man who told us where Fatty Shang's house is? Let's go find him tonight."

"You mean?" Wu Ya asked in surprise.

"If you're soft, I'll be tough." Mei Hua said coldly.

"Mei Hua, if you really do this and let the Ministry of War find out, you will have to strip us of our military loans." Wu Ya said anxiously.

"If you are afraid, just stay here and I will do it alone."

"What nonsense are you talking about? We came out together, of course we worked together. Fatty Shang treats me well." Wu Ya rolled his eyes.

"This is a good brother." Mei Hua smiled happily, "Go to bed early, sleep well, let's act, damn, what kind of inn is this, and it is said to be the best in Dafang County, and the bedding smells like stinky Taste."

In the middle of the night, the moon was bright and the stars were thin, and in the bird clothing alley, two figures flashed alternately. In a few breaths, it was before the door they had knocked on during the day. I chose this house because of this house. It was very close to Fatty Shang's home, and judging from the look on that person's face, it was obvious that he knew the inside story.

The thin dagger poked into the gap of the door, flicked lightly, the door bolt slid open, the door was pushed open a gap, and two people entered in a flash.

The small courtyard has only three rooms on the front and two sides, and the other side is the kitchen and firewood shed and other sundries. Seeing the sound of two people breathing evenly inside, Wu Ya made a gesture in front of another side room, indicating that there were also two people breathing in the room over there, but when it should be two children, he put the The dagger penetrated the crack of the door again. Behind him, Wu Ya also followed.

The two stepped into the room, and the door was gently closed.

Ge Fu didn't sleep well tonight. During the day, those two young men who looked extremely strong came to inquire about Shang Jing, which made him a little frightened. They claimed to be Shang Jing's friends. Soldier, are these two also from the East Army?

Unable to sleep well, it is very easy to wake up. In the haze, he suddenly felt a light in the room. He opened his eyes. In an instant, the pupils dilated. There was indeed a light in the room, because the oil lamp on the table was lit. , Under the light, a figure was sitting at the table. He opened his mouth wide in fear and was about to shout, but the voice in his throat was pushed back by a cold dagger. In an instant, he sweated. The discharge was like pulp, and the teeth chattered.

The wife who was sleeping next to him was also pleasantly surprised. When she opened her eyes to see this scene, she opened her mouth and was about to scream, but Ge Fu reacted very quickly. As soon as he stretched out his hand, he covered his wife's mouth. That scream turned into a muffled sound in the throat.

Mei Hua withdrew her dagger, looked at the two of them, and said calmly: "Don't be afraid, we are not robbers or villains, we just want to ask you something"

Hearing these words, Ge Fu immediately realized, "You are the two people who came during the day, are you Shang Jing's friends?"

"What happened to Shang Jing's family?" Mei Hua didn't want to talk nonsense, and asked straightforwardly: "His father, mother, and wife, where is his son?"

"They moved away, I don't know where they moved!" Ge Fu blurted out.

Mei Hua's eyes changed, the previous warmth disappeared, and gradually became ferocious, "You are lying. Earlier I said that we are not bad people, but you should know that after being deceived, good people become bad people , maybe it's just a moment to stretch out your hand." He raised the dagger and pressed it against Ge Fu's forehead again.

"I ask again, where did they go, or, what happened to them?"

Ge Fu's body kept shaking, and his wife suddenly cried out, "I said, I said, don't hurt us, it's none of our business, Father Shang and his wife are both dead , the lady of the Shang family is also dead. They are all dead."

Hearing this sentence, Mei Hua's hands trembled, and she almost couldn't hold the dagger, and Wu Ya who was behind also stood up abruptly.

"Dead? Okay, why did he die?" Mei Hua's voice was trembling.

"When Shang Jing killed someone, he ran away. The sufferer came to the father of the Shang family. In order to compensate the sufferer, the good family fell into ruin. The father Shang couldn't afford to be sick. More than a year ago, he suddenly had The news about Shang Jing, someone brought them back money, saying that Shang Jing is now serving as a soldier in the Eastern Conquest Army, and their family slowly recovered. But at the beginning of this year, the news of Shang Jing's death came. Father's old illness has relapsed, so he can't afford it."

"The old man is sick, what about the others?"

"In order to treat Father Shang, the Shang family spent all their money, and finally had to borrow usury loans, but they still couldn't save Father Shang. Later, Aunt Shang also collapsed, so Only the Shang family lady is left."

"Say the point."

"Yes, yes!" Ge Fu's body trembled even more, and after a while, he suddenly said: "I really don't know anything."

Mei Hua stared at him, tightened his hand slightly, the dagger cut his skin, a drop of dark red blood seeped out, Ge Fu rolled his eyes, and passed out straight on the bed, his wife looked at him in horror Holding the two of them, they hugged Ge Fu tightly, "I know, I know, I said. The person Shang Jing stabbed back then was the master of the Gong family. Because Mrs. Shang was good-looking, the master of the Gong family raped Mrs. Shang back then. , was stabbed by Shang Jing. Shang Jing thought that Master Gong was dead, so he ran away, but Master Gong was not dead. Later, Shang Jing served as a soldier in the Eastern Conquest Army. Hearing that his status was not low, Master Gong dared not retaliate Already."

"Later when the news of Shang Jing's death came, this Master Gong came to take revenge again, didn't he?"

"Yes, yes!" The woman said in repeated voices: "He first found the doctor in the hospital and used up all the Shang family's money, and then sent someone to lend usury to the Shang family so that the Shang family's money would become more and more expensive." The more he owed, the later, when the Shang family didn't pay any money, he tricked the Shang family's wife into the Shang's mansion. I don't know what happened inside. Anyway, the Shang family's wife hanged herself with a rope after she came back. Mrs. Shang If you can't breathe, you will die."

The dagger in Mei Hua's hand fell silently on the bed, and he straightened up after a while, "The one who hooked up with the Shang family to borrow usury is your man, isn't he?"

The woman's eyes widened in horror, and she looked at Mei Hua.

Seeing the murderous look in Mei Hua's eyes, Wu Ya hurriedly stepped forward and took Mei Hua's hand, "Forget it, they are poor people."

Mei Hua let out a long breath, "Just now you said that the old couple of the Shang family, Mrs. Shang is dead, so what about Shang Jing's six-year-old son?"

"That baby is very poor. He has no home. In Dafang County, no one dares to take him in. Now he is a beggar, and sometimes he will come back. Everyone sees him as pitiful, and will give him some food." The woman hurriedly said: "I also often give him food. As long as he returns to Bird Clothes Lane, I will give him food. A few days ago, I even gave him an old clothes. We dare not offend Master Gong. My man is working for him~IndoMTL.com~The whole family is living on this salary.”

Hearing this, Mei Hua turned around and left. Wu Ya glanced back at the two people on the bed, and said coldly: "If you want to live, just keep your mouths shut and let out half a word, and none of your family will survive."

"Don't dare to say, dare not say." The woman nodded like a chicken pecking rice.

When the two of them walked out of Ge's house, their hearts were heavy as if they had been crushed by a big rock, "Mei Hua, why don't you go find Fatty Shang's son first, he should still be alive. But where to find it?"

Mei Hua lowered her head and said nothing. She just walked towards the old house of the Shang family in front. Looking at Mei Hua's back, Wu Ya suddenly realized that a child who was six years old but less than seven years old went to the house during the day. Begging outside, and at night, the biggest possibility is to return to the place he is most familiar with.

The two were walking slowly outside the old house of the Shang family. Mei Hua suddenly stood still. In the corner of the Shang family house, there was a wooden shelf with a chopping board on it. It should be the place where Shang Yi used to sell pork. Under the shelf, there was the sound of even breathing.

Mei Hua rushed up a few steps and squatted in front of the shelf. Under the chopping board, there was a thin figure curled up there, sleeping soundly, with a sweet smile on his face. Fever, almost shed tears.

He stretched out his hand and took the child out. The child suddenly woke up and struggled vigorously.

"Don't be afraid, I'm your father's friend, we came here specially to find you." Mei Hua whispered. "Good boy, you won't have to live this kind of hard life again." [End of this chapter]
