Chapter 127 Reclaim Ning Wan
Chapter 127 Reclaim Ning Wan
Ning Wan saw the cloth strip in her mouth being pulled out and started crying:
"Dad and Mom, wuwu... Mom... save Wan'er!"
"It's so noisy! Shut up!"
The tall man slapped Ning Wan on the face, and the man next to him hurried forward and stuffed Ning Wan's mouth with a cloth.
"So, now you know it's your daughter, right?"
The tall man said with an impatient look on his face.
Ning Huaizhi was already furious when he saw his daughter being beaten. He didn't care about anything else at this moment and directly shot the man's right hand with his slingshot.
"Ahhh, you dare to sneak attack me! It hurts so much!"
Jiang Yuwei was startled, then whispered in Ning Huaizhi's ear:
"I know who these two are. Do you remember the two thugs who stopped us at the city gate that day?"
Ning Huaizhi thought for a moment with a serious face and nodded.
Jiang Yuwei continued:
"It's those two people. I was wondering why I always felt that their figures were somewhat familiar. It seems that Niu Da and Niu Er were bribed by Ge's people. Even if we promise them not to make paper anymore, it will be useless. They must have a trick up their sleeve. These two people are cunning and will not let us go easily. Let's stabilize them first, and you can react to the situation later. Don't act on impulse, or the government will be here soon."
Ning Huaizhi frowned after hearing what Jiang Yuwei said:
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
Niu Da was still holding his hands and yelling as he was beaten by Ning Huaizhi. Seeing this, Niu Er also got angry and rudely picked up Ning Wan and shouted:
"Don't be so arrogant. Your daughter is still in our hands. If you don't want her to die, agree to our request quickly!"
Jiang Yuwei looked at Ning Wan who was being picked up and struggling, and her heart was in her throat. She raised her hand and said:
"Don't pull Wan'er, put her down quickly! I will agree to all your requests!"
Niu Er glanced at the anxious Jiang Yuwei and slowly said:
"So you promise not to sell paper in Ping'an Town in the future?"
Jiang Yuwei and Ning Huaizhi looked at each other, then took a few steps forward and said sincerely:
"Yes, I promise you. You put my daughter down first. If you don't believe me, I can write you a document. With this document, you will be able to complete the task."
Niu Er seemed to be somewhat moved after hearing this, so he put Ning Wan aside and pointed at Jiang Yuwei and said:
"Stand there and don't move. I will discuss this with my elder brother!"
Jiang Yuwei nodded:
"Okay, you two can discuss it. Anyway, I won't lie to you as long as you don't hurt my child."
Niu Er glanced at Jiang Yuwei warily, then pulled Niu Da, who was still grimacing in pain, and whispered in his ear.
Seeing that the two were discussing enthusiastically, Jiang Yuwei rushed over without making a sound, hugged Ning Wan and ran out.
Niu Da was the first to react and was about to chase after her, but Ning Huaizhi was quick to shoot a mud ball at Niu Da's forehead, making Niu Da see stars. Seeing this, Niu Er didn't care about Niu Da and ran out of the pavilion to chase Jiang Yuwei.
Just when Niu Er was about to grab Jiang Yuwei, she suddenly turned around and poured all the prepared chili water on Niu Er's face.
"Damn it, it's pepper spray again! I can't see! Jiang Yuwei, you damn bitch, I will never let you go!"
Jiang Yuwei ignored Niu Er's shouting behind her, and quickly carried Ning Wan onto the ox cart, signaling Ning Huaizhi to drive away first.
When Niu Da saw the two men trying to run away, he didn't care about being dizzy and hurriedly chased after them.
"Run to the city, maybe you can run into someone from the government!"
While talking to Ning Huaizhi, Jiang Yuwei loosened the rope on Ning Wan. She looked at Ning Wan's arms, which were red from being tied up by the rope, with heartache. Jiang Yuwei kept stroking the scars on Ning Wan's body:
“Hoo, hoo… Mommy, help Wan’er blow on it. Wan’er, stop crying. It’s all Mommy’s fault for not taking good care of you and making you suffer.”
Ning Wan stared at Jiang Yuwei with tears in her eyes and sobbed softly:
"Mother, I thought I would never see you and father again. I will be good and obedient from now on and never run around again, wuwu..."
Jiang Yuwei quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe Ning Wan's tears, then hugged her in her arms, gently patted her back and comforted her:
"Okay, Wan'er, don't cry. Daddy and Mommy will never leave you."
At this moment, Manager Xu and his government officials met Ning Huaizhi's ox cart head-on. Ning Huaizhi stopped the ox cart and saluted the constable, saying:
"Those two thieves are chasing our ox cart from behind. Thank you for your help."
After hearing this, Constable Huang nodded quickly and led a group of people to capture Niu Da and Niu Er who were following behind them. Before the two of them knew what was happening, they saw people from the government office chasing them. They didn't bother to chase Jiang Yuwei's ox cart anymore and hurriedly turned around and ran towards Fengliuting.
Upon seeing this, Constable Huang signaled the two constables beside him to ride on horseback to chase after them.
Soon both of them were arrested and brought to justice. Ning Huaizhi and Jiang Yuwei also went to the government office to explain what happened. After the magistrate had asked about everything, he waved his hand and said:
"Niu Da, Niu Er, you have committed crimes repeatedly and have refused to repent. I think I will put you in death row today and wait for your execution in the autumn!"
After hearing this, Niu Da was so frightened that he shit his pants and pissed himself. Although he was a gangster, he was very timid and his tall figure was the only thing that could scare people. When he heard that he would be executed in the autumn, he was so frightened that he didn't say a word and kowtowed to the ground repeatedly.
The magistrate frowned when he saw Niu Da's look. This man was too frightening. Last time, he was the one who urinated here and made it full of smell. It was the same today. The magistrate shook his head helplessly.
Seeing this, Niu Er kowtowed and shouted:
"Sir, sir, we are innocent. We did this because we were coerced!"
The magistrate raised his eyebrows when he heard this and asked with interest:
"Oh? Who threatened you?"
Niu Er looked back at Jiang Yuwei, then said to the magistrate:
"Yes, it was Manager Sun from Ge's Paper Shop. He asked the two of us to cause trouble for Jiang Yuwei. Then, we followed his instructions and arrested Ning Wan. You all know what happened after that."
Jiang Yuwei nodded:
"They did say just now that they would only let my daughter go if I agreed not to sell paper in Ping'an Town anymore. We did have an argument with the people from Ge's Paper Shop before. The Ge's wanted to monopolize the paper sales in Ping'an Town, but my family also opened a paper mill. The Ge's have always regarded us as a thorn in their side and tried every means to bring us down. But I don't believe Niu Da and Niu Er's statement that they were forced to do so. After all, there have been examples like this before. As long as they are paid, they will work for their boss. My husband and I have been stopped and threatened by these two people on the street before."
