Chapter 131 Bribery

　　"It should cost a lot of money, right? If it's not a lot of money, then everyone can take off the shackles if they pay a little money, right?"

　　"How about I go and ask?"

　　Song Jingze is a person who likes to join in the fun. When he heard his family members' dilemma, he immediately volunteered.

　　Su Lianying thought for a moment and said, "Not for the time being. Let's wait and see. What if it's due to other reasons? It would be bad if you rashly go and ask and anger those escorts."

　　"Your aunt is right. Have you forgotten what I told you before?" Bai glared at her son secretly, just trying to show off.

　　Old Lady Song turned to ask her second grandson, "Shaoqin, what do you say?"

　　If possible, she still hoped that everyone in the family could remove the shackles, so that it would be much easier to walk and they would suffer less. Although no one said it, she knew that everyone was a little overwhelmed, especially the women.

　　Seeing that his grandmother was asking about him, Song Shaoqin couldn't remain silent anymore. He looked at the Cao family members in front of him and made a subtle gesture.

　　"Didn't you find anything wrong with the Cao family?"

Hearing this, everyone was stunned for a moment, and followed his gaze to look at the Cao family's team, secretly looking at them carefully.

　　"What's wrong?" Bai muttered in confusion.

　　"Isn't it just that the man from the Cao family took off the shackles~" Song Jingze said casually without caring.

　　Song Yunxi was more careful and soon discovered something unusual, "Huh? The number of people in the Cao family seems to be wrong."

　　"Ah? What does that mean?" Song Jingze asked curiously, why didn't he see it?

　　“There are fewer people.”

　　Song Yunxi said with certainty that when she was on the road before, she was too tired to walk any further, so she wanted to divert her attention and counted the number of people in the escort team. She had recorded the number of people in each family.

　　"Are you sure?"

　　"How many people are missing?"

　　Song Yunxi frowned slightly, "Two are missing. If I remember correctly, the missing ones should be two female relatives."

　　"Ah, this..."

　　"What is the Cao family doing? Don't they know that someone is missing from their home?"

　　"I think there might be something going on here."

　　Old Madam Song turned her gaze directly to her second grandson, "Shaoqin, did you know this a long time ago?"

　　"Well, when I went to the kitchen yesterday, I accidentally saw Cao Da and his men go to the front yard, and Mai Dong also went to confirm it."

　　"So?" Hearing this, Old Mrs. Song frowned. She already had a rough guess in her mind. After all, at her age, she had heard of all kinds of despicable tricks.

　　"What's wrong?" Bai asked with a puzzled look. She was born into a scholarly family and had been brought up with strict manners and rules of etiquette since childhood. After marrying into the Song family, she had never been exposed to any intrigue, so it was no wonder that she had no awareness of that aspect at all.
