Chapter 1757: Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl
Chapter 1757: Requesting Shu Yu to Rescue Someone
Tao Shi, at this point, couldn't care less about her grievances with Tao Qin. She quickly walked up to Zhang Shi. "Tell me, what happened to Feili?"
Zhang Shi immediately burst into tears and sobbed, "Sister-in-law, my child's father, my husband was captured by those damned bandits."
"What?" Tao Shi was taken aback. "How could that happen? Why would the bandits capture him?"
Zhang Shi wiped her tears, sitting on the ground with a helpless look. "It's our bad luck. That night, the bandits stormed into the county, burning, killing, and looting everywhere. We were at home, hoping that the bandits would leave soon. Who could have known that they would break into our home? And then, and then they took my husband away."
Tao Shi staggered, and Meng Han stood by her side, her heart softening. She reached out to support Tao Shi.
Tao Shi gritted her teeth and asked, "Are you saying that Feili disappeared on the first night the bandits entered the county? And you all, why didn't you come to us? My husband went to the Tao family the next day and didn't see a single person there. It's been so many days, why are you telling us now?"
Zhang Shi's sobbing paused briefly, clearly feeling guilty. So, when she resumed crying, her voice suddenly grew louder.
"We had no choice. It was so chaotic outside, we didn't dare to go out casually. My husband has been captured. Before he was taken, he told me to protect the only heir of the Tao family. But as a woman, with no man in the house, I couldn't stay at home. I took the children and went to my family's home on the street behind."
Apart from Tao Qin, the Tao family had a son and a daughter.
After Tao Feili was captured, Zhang Shi was terrified and couldn't stay at home. So, she took her two children to stay with her family nearby.
"My family members also stopped me from going out casually. Our home is so far from the Meng Family Escort Agency. If something happened on the way, what would I do with my children? It was only this morning that I heard it's safe outside, so I dared to bring my children back home."
In truth, she had heard that the bandits were captured the day before, and people outside had already started moving around.
However, Zhang Shi was timid, so she had waited one more day.
"I returned home and found that Ah Qin had also returned. She's injured, and she said that you all treated her..." Faced with the gaze of the Meng family, Zhang Shi refrained from voicing her grievances. Instead, she started crying again. "Ah Qin said that your aunt's uncles and nephews went to rescue people, successfully rescuing brother-in-law, but Ah Qin didn't see her father. Sister-in-law, her father must still be in the hands of the bandits. Please ask your uncles and nephews to help save him."
Tao Shi was stunned, instinctively turning to look at Shu Yu.
Of the people who had gone to the Black Market, apart from Meng Pei and Meng Yunzheng, there was only Shu Yu.
At this moment, Meng Yunzheng was out of the city, and Meng Pei had left early in the morning with his men on business.
Right now, Shu Yu was the only one who knew the situation.
Tao Shi opened her mouth, feeling hesitant. She wasn't eager to face Shu Yu, but concern for her brother's safety ultimately prevailed.
So, she walked up to Shu Yu and urgently asked, "Shu Yu, do you, do you know where Ah Han's uncle is right now? Is he still with the bandits? You have many people under your command now, can you help rescue him?"
Meng Han couldn't believe it. "Mother, what are you saying? That's a bandits' den."
