Chapter 2 Heart

Wang Hu and the others did not come back after being taken away. Zhuang Rou didn't want to know what happened to them, but Zhuang Xuewen was led out of the shed, and seven children were followed behind her.

They had men and women, followed with a gaze but did not dare to speak. The girl rescued by Zhuang Rou walked in front and asked in a low voice, "Sister, where are you going?"

Zhuang Rou looked up at Zhuang Xuewen and said, "Brother, they are the ones who have been following me, all of them are dead and have nowhere to go..."

"As long as you are happy, you can do anything. I will take them away. I can still afford to support this guy." Zhuang Xuewen looked at her gently and agreed to accept these children.

The children were stunned. There was such a good thing. They were surprised and were afraid that he would regret it, so they quickly followed.

Zhuang Rou smiled, "Thank you brother, they are very obedient. If you have any questions, just let them do it."

"Okay, let's go to the city to rest for a day first, and let's talk about it when you're full." Zhuang Xuewen saw that the children were really dirty and thin, even Zhuang Rou was the same. It would be better to wash and eat first before setting off.

"Wow!" When the children heard that they could eat enough, they immediately cheered. This was the best thing for them.

Zhuang Xuewen's carriage was very clean. Except for Zhuang Rou, no other children dared to go in. It was Zhao Jun who was raped and they dared to sit down, but he didn't even dare to stretch his feet. He sat in a bunch of legs, for fear of angering the young master and being driven away.

Seeing that they were all very hungry, Zhuang Xuewen took out all the snacks he brought and shared them with them. Seeing that they were carefully holding the candy and eating very happily, he looked at Zhuang Rou and saw that she was just staring at the candy, but she didn't eat them.

Zhuang Xuewen asked in confusion: "Sister, why don't you eat? What are you looking at?"

"I feel like I'm dreaming, and I thought I'll never see my brother." Zhuang Rou smiled sweetly, and was different from the girl who was holding a kitchen knife just now.

This made Zhuang Xuewen silent. After a while, he asked: "Second uncle and second aunt, they..."

Zhuang Rou looked up at him, slowly put the candy cubes into her mouth, and then smiled and said, "Brother, the candy is very sweet."

"Are they really dead?" Zhuang Xuewen raised his eyebrows. Although he was already prepared, he was still a little uncomfortable.

"Well, I've left long ago." Zhuang Rou nodded while chewing candy, with no fluctuations in her eyes, as if she was talking about someone she was not very familiar with.

This made Zhuang Xuewen feel so painful that she was so numb. She had experienced so much suffering that she became so numb. She was not such a person in the past. She would cry and go to find her second uncle and second aunt when she was scared by a caterpillar, and pointed her finger at her and said that her brother bullied her.

But now, she has long lost the innocence that a twelve-year-old girl should have.

Zhuang Xuewen hugged her with pain and said softly: "I will not let you suffer any more, but will make you live happily forever."

"Well, I can't lose my brother anymore." Zhuang Rou smiled slightly against his shoulder.

The children who were eating candy were stunned and their whole body shivered. They felt a chill on their backs, and the candy almost got stuck in their throats.

The younger ones are only four or five years old, and the older ones are only about ten years old. However, because they are orphans, they have been living with Zhuang Rou for a long time and know her character well. Now seeing her laughing like this, she is not only afraid or worried. The eldest sister will not kill this rich brother, right? He is a good person!

Zhuang Rou glanced at them and said, "What a group of idiots, what are you afraid of?"

This is my brother, the only relative who is the most dearest and most precious.

The children waited for a long time and went into the city. When they arrived at the inn, they didn't see Zhuang Rou doing anything. They finally felt relieved.

When he was at the door, he was blocked by the waiter. Zhuang Xuewen smashed it over and nodded and let it go. He ran errands and bought a few sets of children's clothes, burned hot water and called the maids to wash the children off the old mud.

"Don't worry, everyone eat slowly, there are so many foods!" Zhao Jun took the seven children to eat in the downstairs hall. Seeing them eating voraciously, he was so scared that he quickly persuaded him.

After Zhuang Rou washed and changed her clothes, she sat in the guest room and had dinner with Zhuang Xuewen. She was basically eating, while Zhuang Xuewen didn't move her chopsticks at all but kept looking at her.

Zhuang Rou didn't look hideous when she was eating, but she was very fast and she didn't feel like she had eaten much. Most of the dishes on the table had been swept away by her.

When she was full, Zhuang Xuewen asked, "Sister, do you want to raise these children at home and use them now?"

"No, it's up to my brother. It's best to be able to learn some words and learn some skills. Be a servant at home. Wouldn't you still be a servant in the future?" Zhuang Rou shook her head and said.

"Take hardships together and share blessings together. This does not mean that letting the other party give you the current person. That's not good, it will only cause dissatisfaction in your heart. Although we have been suffering together for so long, we can live a good life now, so don't get together again."

Zhuang Xuewen looked at her in surprise. She didn't expect to hear such words. She thought she would ask everyone to be taken home together. However, she didn't expect that she didn't want anyone, just allowing everyone to have enough food and wear warm clothes, and live a normal life.

It was indeed his sister, so smart. He clapped his hands and smiled, "Okay, I can arrange for someone to adopt them. Whether they can make a difference in the future depends on themselves."

"Thank you brother. As for my parents, please don't bother me anymore." Zhuang Rou smiled and said, "If Brother Bones hasn't heard of it, it's gone, and it's useless to search for it anymore. After all, it's been seven years."

"What, it's been seven years!" Zhuang Xuewen's heart sank. When he saw the tablet, he thought that the second uncle and his wife lived in seclusion because of something. Not long after they passed away, she became a refugee.

If it was seven years old, Zhuang Rou would have lived alone outside at the age of five. That was not something happened shortly after leaving the capital.

His face became gloomy, "Sister, what happened to the second uncle and the others!"

Zhuang Rou tilted her head and thought for a while, "I don't know, although my father was a little famous back then, he wouldn't have any major cases. He could not encounter any major cases. He could offend the high-ranking officials and royal relatives. I still don't know what's going on. At that time, I just planned to go out to the beach for a month, and met bad people halfway through."

"If you talk carefully, I didn't mean to remind you of unhappy things, but this matter must be clear." Zhuang Xuewen naturally knew how big a case his second uncle could intervene. Although he was called a genius arrestee, he was just a matter of the last resort. It was impossible to encounter any case that he would be silenced.

Zhuang Rou was only five years old at that time, and she couldn't remember what happened at that time. She only knew that a few people jumped out on the road, covered her face and dressed tightly. Later, she thought that she must have been an ordinary bandit, but sent by someone else.

She told the story in a scattered manner, and Zhuang Xuewen couldn't hear it. Who could have done such a thing?

At this time, Zhuang Rou said, "Brother, I was pulled into the river by a shocked horse and a car and washed out. At that time, I wanted to go back to find you, but I was too young and didn't know the way. After I got older, I couldn't remember where my home was."

"When life is very hard, I also hate who killed his parents, thinking that I must live well to take revenge. Later I stopped thinking about it. Being able to survive was what I should think about."

Zhuang Xuewen looked at her carefully, not wanting to hear her say such things. Girls of her age should live happily. How long does it take to heal the pain and the injuries they have suffered in their hearts? Then let yourself stay as long as you can.

"We will enter Beijing tomorrow. Your brother is a young talent in Beijing. The teacher of the Imperial College likes me very much. Although it is not a place with authority, it is okay to ensure that you are not bullied and you have no worries about food and clothing." Zhuang Xuewen touched her head and smiled.

Zhuang Rou smiled and nodded. Her brother was still so kind to him like when he was a child.

The next day, Zhuang Xuewen bought another carriage and took these children to the capital. After more than half a month, Dianbo finally arrived in the capital.

The children were arranged elsewhere and lived a peaceful life, while Zhuang Rou was taken to Zhuang Xuewen's home. Only when she got here did she realize that her uncle had passed away a few years ago, and only her brother and three servants were left in the small house.

A woman who cooks is the one she was with when she was a child. She had seen the doorkeeper and the old man who cared for flowers and plants. She used to get fresh flowers from him. The only remaining strength was the son of the cook. Liu Mi, the little fat man who always had a runny nose at that time, was three years older than her but ran away when she saw her all day long.

Seeing Zhuang Xuewen asking the cook to come back with a little maid, Zhuang Rou refused and said, "Brother, don't find me a maid. I'm used to being alone."

Seeing that she was very persistent, Zhuang Xuewen let it go. After she got used to it, she could find someone to serve her. "Okay, tell me if you have any needs." As he said that, he took out a small purse and handed it to Zhuang Rou, "It contains the monthly money for this month. You are already old and you must have a place to spend money. You can go out for more fun. I will take you to meet your friend's sister when you have time. You can make more friends."

Zhuang Rou nodded with her purse, and after saying something, Zhuang Xuewen asked her to go and take her out to see the night view of the capital in the evening.

After entering the house and closing the door, Zhuang Rou was silent for a while, and suddenly laughed with a hint, took out a raw embroidered dagger from her arms and threw it on the table. She crawled onto the table and smiled sweetly: "He is really my brother, not a liar, nor a bad brother, he is really a good brother."

Zhuang Xuewen stood under the window and listened to the sound inside, and he smiled bitterly. He had already discovered the knife hidden in Zhuang Rou's arms and never pointed it out. Thinking that she was so alert that she felt so distressed. What a harsh environment that made her become like this.

However, as long as you return home, you will definitely recover to the original cute girl. Thinking of this, he smiled and quietly left the courtyard.
