Zhuang Rou thought for a while and left the lobby and came outside. He heard from the yamen runners that there was no place to live in the county yamen and most of the houses needed to be repaired, so he took the women to the restaurant opposite, searched for the next few rooms to stay in, and sent two yamen runners to guard them.

She really couldn't stay in the yamen now, so she walked to the restaurant across the street. When she saw her appear, the shopkeeper felt helpless. His restaurant happened to be opposite, and she had nothing to do before, but now she has been troubled several times in just a few days.

Zhuang Rou did not go through the back door, but went directly from the restaurant lobby and came to the back yard where some rooms here provide accommodation.

There are as many as nine ladies brought from Lin Laicai's family, the least one is only one year old and needs to be taken care of by a wet nurse.

Three rooms were packed, and the small ones were squeezed to stay. At this time, they would be too scared to separate them.

Zhuang Rou said hello to the two yamen runners sitting at the door, and learned that they were all gathered in one room, so he pushed open the door. All the women inside looked over, looking at her with a little horror.

The two girls who came with that day were here, except for the wet nurse. When they saw her, they were so scared that they shrank back and hugged a four or five-year-old girl in their arms tighter.

Zhuang Rou looked at it. The most people were four to seven years old, but they all seemed to be very well-educated, and none of them looked like a child running around in the village. The people Lin Laicai invited to teach them were really capable and taught these children well.

"Master." The wet nurse stood up with the child in her arms and greeted her. She really couldn't find what to call this woman.

Zhuang Rou smiled and said, "No need to be polite, just have a good rest. Tell me if you have any difficulties."

No one dared to say anything, but just looked at her timidly, and she caught her parents.

After looking at them, Zhuang Rou sat down and said with a smile on her face: "I know you were all adopted by the couple. Now I want to send you back to find your biological parents. If you can't find them, you can make other plans."

"Look for biological parents?" The girls all looked at her. The girl Zhuang Rou had seen frowned and said, "I was sold by my parents. I can't remember where my home is. And why I have to go back to the house where I have no food to eat. I will not go back."

"My father died. I heard that my mother was going to remarry, so I sold me. Now my parents are very nice to me, so I don't want to go back." Another girl about eight years old also preached. They looked down at the silver bracelets on their hands and placed their hands on smooth clothes. Who would want to lose such a good life?

Zhuang Rou smiled and said nothing, but looked at the others. Suddenly, she found a five or six-year-old girl looking at her, as if she wanted to say something but didn't dare to say it.

So she reached out and pulled the girl, carried her to her lap and sat, and asked with a smile: "What's your name?"

"Lin Zhenbao." The girl glanced at her sisters and said crisply.

Zhuang Rou smiled and said, "When did you come here to live with the ladies?"

Lin Zhenbao raised his cute little face and said, "I don't know, I was still with my mother during the Chinese New Year, and she hugged me and cried so sadly. I was brought here after heavy snow that day."

It's only two or three months!

"Sister, take you to the yard to play." Zhuang Rou stood up, hugged Lin Zhenbao and walked out. Several girls in the room kept staring at her, looking very worried.

Lin Zhenbao came too late, and was generous and not afraid of people. She hugged Zhuang Rou's neck and asked in a low voice: "Sister, can you really take me to find my mother?"

"You have to tell me where your mother is, so that my sister can take you to find her." Zhuang Rou took her to the yard and asked gently.

"I don't know where my mother is. One day, someone came, took away all my things and lost all her beautiful clothes. My mother's favorite hairpin was also snatched away by a fierce person. We went to a place where there were very fierce people inside, and if they were disobedient, they would be beaten." Lin Zhenbao thought for a while and said.

"Although I can eat well without being beaten here, I still want to see my mother..." She was about to cry as she said.

Zhuang Rou frowned, "What's your name before?"

"Mom called me Zhiruo, Song Zhiruo." Song Zhiruo sobbed, then thought about it and said a few more words, "The people who took us away at that time were dressed a bit like my sister, but they looked better than yours. My sister should know them, can I see my mother?"

After hearing her words, Zhuang Rou looked down at her patronage, and her face suddenly changed. She then returned to her original smile, "Zhiruo, what's your father's name?"

"Well..." Song Zhiruo frowned and thought hard for a long time. In the past, he always called Dad. Although this name was taught, it rarely spoken. Under Zhuang Rou's encouraging gaze, she finally remembered, "My father's name is Song Chu."

Zhuang Rou touched her head and said, "I've recorded it. You can wait, and you will definitely find your mother."

Song Zhiruo nodded, "Thank you sister, I will wait for you."

He told her a few words to tell her not to tell others what she had just said, and then called the wet nurse out.

The wet nurse is very timid, and ordinary people will be afraid when they see the tolerance, let alone the masters at home have been arrested now.

"Master." The nurse held the child and shouted timidly.

Zhuang Rou hugged Song Zhiruo and asked, "Who else is there in your family?"

"I am the daughter of Zhao, and I have two kids in my family. Because my family is poor, I left my child who was just over a month old to be a wet nurse to subsidize my family. My family is in Sanli Village, not far from Dachi Village. I don't know what happened to me at home." The wet nurse said with a frown.

This child who has been breastfeeding for a long time, no one wants it again, but there are many places to spend money at home, which is really troublesome.

Zhuang Rou said: "So you continue to feed this girl and help me watch these, especially her, and you can't let other big bullies be bullied." She instructed Song Zhiruo in her arms and asked Zhao to help stare at her.

Song Zhiruo was taken out by her to speak, and when she went back, she would definitely be asked by the older ones. It is not certain that she would be beaten.

The wet nurse said softly: "Thank you, my cousin, but those girls are all ladies. How can I take care of them?"

"Twenty taels of silver, as long as you help me watch, no matter whether you need to take care of this child or not, I will give you twenty taels of silver after the case is over. How about it? Can you control it?" Zhuang Rou didn't talk nonsense to her, and just used the silver to smash it. She would throw the child out as a wet nurse. The family must be in urgent need of money.

Zhao raised his head suddenly, his eyes becoming a little scary, "My cousin, I will do as you told me!"

Zhuang Rou smiled, "Don't be too nervous, as long as they don't let them bully others, she will sleep with you at night, and don't be too strict. The case will not be too long."

"Well, the folk girl understands." Zhao quickly nodded and bowed again. Then he raised his head and found that her hand had reached over, with a piece of silver in her palm.

"Take it, if your family comes, give it to them first." Zhuang Rou put the silver in her hands, then put Song Zhiruo down and handed it to Zhao's house.

She told the yamen runners a few words, just don’t bully these women, but don’t let someone run away. Although the yamen runners have been here for a few days, they have already heard of her reputation. Without her, the county yamen would be like a ruin.

Any other arrested person can be offended. Only this person can be profitable if he follows her.

The two agreed with a smile on their faces. Zhuang Rou thought about it and threw more than two pieces of silver to the two of them, asking them to share it themselves. Amid their joy, she left the restaurant and returned to the county government.

At this time, the case was almost complete, and Lin Lai Caicai was asked by the desolate face. Li Zhongxin didn't say a word. Zhuang Rou walked to the master and looked at the confession. The words on it were similar to what Lin said, but the child's origin was only said to be the orphan he bought.

Zhuang Rou thought about it and whispered, "Master, is the little prince in another courtyard?"

The master raised his head and looked at her strangely, but nodded and responded: "Here, what's the matter with you?"

"I want to see if his injury has healed. Is it convenient to go?" Zhuang Rou said with a smile.

"It's convenient, just go there." The master remembered what happened in the Grand Princess's Mansion. He forgot what the sister said, but the little prince was very angry at that time and he would be in a good mood when he saw her coming.

Zhuang Rou thanked her and retreated to the back without affecting the case handling. She asked Chen Mufeng: "I'm going back. Are you going with me or continue listening here?"

Chen Mufeng was watching wonderfully, standing in a good position, so he didn't want to leave. What's more, Li Zhongxin is from their family, and he had to watch the case being tried before he could get back to work with his brother and father.

He whispered, "I'll go back after watching it, you can go first."

"Then I don't care about you." Zhuang Rou patted his shoulder and walked away directly.

She rode her horse and went to the Little Prince's villa. Anyway, she was next to her courtyard, and it was convenient for her to come back after the talks. At this time, the sun was setting, and she felt hungry, so she decided to go to the Little Prince's villa for dinner.

The Prince's Villa is different from the Grand Princess' Mansion. There are no vicious guards at the door. Zhuang Rou went up to pat the door, and someone opened it soon.

After hearing her name, she went in and reported it, and soon invited her in politely. It was obviously dinner time, but the little prince was not having a meal, but leaned against the soft couch in the study room, squinted his eyes and looked at her with a smile.

Zhuang Rou stepped forward and greeted her, "I've met the adults."

Chu Xia raised his head and asked disdainfully: "Didn't you say you hate me and never come to the door again?"

"That's about the Grand Princess's Mansion. This is the adult's villa, so there should be no problem." Zhuang Rou said calmly.

With such a thick face, Chu Xia frowned and said, "I am also a place where you come here if you say it, and you won't come if you don't say it? Can you pretend that what you say has never been said before?"

Zhuang Rou smiled and said, "I am not a gentleman, I don't have any horses to chase me. Do you don't need supper if you say anything?"

Chu Xia said angrily: "If you don't eat, you won't have any appetite when you are injured!"

"Then let the kitchen make some for me, I'm hungry." Zhuang Rou said without any mind. He doesn't eat it, but others will have to eat it. Now there must be something to eat in the kitchen.

"Ah?" Chu Xia looked at her for no reason. Whose home is this?
