Xiao Shizi thought his mother was in the yard. Although he felt a little strange, he was so eager to see his mother that he wanted to go in quickly.
But Chao Huan held him back. Xiao Shizi raised his head in confusion and saw Chao Huan sighing softly.
"Sister Shu?" He was a little strange, but the next moment, something changed suddenly.
On the way here, two tough-looking men suddenly walked out, holding finger-thick hemp ropes in their hands, with malicious smiles on their ferocious faces.
Xiao Shizi had already noticed something was wrong. He turned his head to look at Chen Jie. Chen Jie also tore off the disguise and exposed what was hidden in his eyes. When Xiao Shizi saw that look, he immediately understood that he had been deceived.
"Uncle Chen!" Xiao Shizi shouted. He and Chen Jie were not close, but Chen Jie opened the door when he came to see his mother. He always thought that Chen Jie was a good person, but the situation at this time called him "Uncle Chen!"
I dare not think, "Where is my mother?"
He had an unknown premonition, but he didn't dare to think about it. He could only look at Chen Jie with pleading eyes, trying to find an answer.
Chen Jie sneered and shattered his last fantasy without mercy.
"Your mother, that bitch, committed suicide seven days ago!"
Xiao Shizi's eyes widened in disbelief.
It turned out that seven days ago, a person found Xiu Niang. The man claimed to be Mrs. Liu's slave and came specially to convey something to Mrs. Liu. At first, Xiu Niang was confused that she did not know Mrs. Liu, but what the slave said was...
But it shocked her.
It turned out that Mrs. Liu was the first wife of the lover she had longed for. Different from the humble status of the embroiderer, Mrs. Liu was a lady from a famous family. She married the husband named Liu, and the two of them had a good relationship.
The man is talented and the woman is good-looking, well matched.
The man named Liu was scolded by his father for wandering around the land of fireworks, and threatened to sever the relationship between father and son if he went to see the embroiderer after getting married. Although it was a pity for him, Langjun Liu still chose to obey his parents.
Married to Mrs. Liu, they can be regarded as a loving couple at home.
But the good times did not last long. Mrs. Liu only gave birth to two daughters after three years of marriage. Just when she was thinking that the third child should be a son anyway, Liu Langjun suddenly got injured while riding a horse, hurting the roots of his descendants and unable to do anything.
gave birth.
The Liu family has been complaining for a long time, and Liu Langjun has been in a state of despair for a long time, drinking heavily every day.
Liu Langjun was an only son, and Liu's father and Liu's mother were too old to have children. The inheritance was about to be cut off, but Liu's mother suddenly thought of Xiu Niang.
She told Mrs. Liu that although Mrs. Liu was not happy to let her husband and other people's children come to the house, Mrs. Liu tried hard to persuade her, cried and made trouble, and finally made Mrs. Liu relent and agreed to bring him back.
So there was this place.
But Mrs. Liu is not an easy person to deal with. She can tolerate the child who is half the blood of her husband, but she cannot tolerate the woman who gave birth to the child, so she only asked Xiu Niang to hand over the child, seeing that she is somewhat fertile.
Love can help her redeem herself and so on.
The embroiderer didn't expect that the person she was thinking about day and night had long forgotten that she was married to someone else. The servant's words were very unpleasant, and they stuck in her heart every word, saying that if she handed over her son, she could still let his son grow up in the future.
It was not easy for her, a prostitute, to have the opportunity to redeem herself in order to live a good life. She had to think carefully about it and not jeopardize the future of herself and her children.
The embroiderer's face was completely drained of blood. In the sneer eyes of the slave, she slowly said that she should think about it.
Perhaps because she had some desire for revenge, or perhaps because many years of expectations were shattered, this woman who had always been gentle and reserved chose to commit suicide by hanging from a beam that night.
But everything is not over yet.
Xiu Niang was dead, and no one knew about Xiao Shizi. People in Yunbielou only knew that Xiao Shizi came back to visit Xiu Niang once a month, but they didn't know where the child was at other times, so the Liu family bribed Yunbielou's
Man, catch the man next time the pebbles come.
After learning the truth about his mother's death, Xiao Shizi was angry and painful. His eyes were scarlet and he glanced at the people in front of him. Such a small child was like a wild wolf, ready to pounce on and bite these people at any time.
But they didn't take him seriously. Xiao Shizi was just a child anyway, and the two nurses were both strong adult men. They could easily subdue him. But considering the Liu family's intentions,
, the two of them were just preparing to tie him up and didn't dare to do anything harsh.
But suddenly, Xiao Shizi, whose eyes were red and fierce just now, suddenly softened his expression. He pulled Chao Huan's clothes, and when he raised his head, his face was full of grievance and sadness.
"Sister Shu, why did Aniang commit suicide? Doesn't she want me anymore?"
This is definitely not a topic suitable for discussion now, but Chao Huan lowered his eyes, looked at him tenderly, and said softly: "How could it be? Your mother-in-law loves you very much. The reason why she did this is to protect you."
You."
The two guards and Chen Jie looked at each other, and they were all a little confused about the too leisurely atmosphere between the two.
But Chao Huan didn't pay attention to the three of them. She gently touched Xiao Shizi's head, slid down his soft hair, and touched the corners of his red eyes.
"Because I love you, I don't want to betray you. Because I love you, I don't want you to be threatened."
Her fingers touched the child's eyes, and Xiao Shizi closed his eyes. Sadness surged up like a wave. He threw himself into Chao Huan's arms and cried softly.
Chao Huan raised her head and glanced at the three of them.
The three of them couldn't help but shudder. The girl in front of them looked weak and harmless, but this glance was bone-chilling, as if they were looking at something dead, which made people's hearts tremble.
Chen Jie gritted his teeth, looked at the two stunned nurses, and yelled angrily: "What are you doing standing around here? It's just a woman and a child, hurry up and arrest them, Yunbielou raises them
You are not allowed to eat free of charge."
"Catch the child, send the girl to the boss, train her and send her out to pick up customers again." Thinking of this, he showed a sinister smile, as if the two of them were already playthings in his hands.
The two nurses looked at each other, and in order not to lose their jobs, they ignored the chill just now and walked forward with the rope.
Just as the finger-thick rope was about to fall on Chao Huan, a cold slip passed by and the rope suddenly broke.
The two guards looked at the cut rope in their hands and didn't react for a moment. Just when they wanted to look up, they saw their own bodies.
Ah, those are indeed their bodies, still standing in a standing position, with broken ropes in their hands, but there is nothing on their necks.
"Boom"
"Boom"
Two sounds fell to the ground.
Chen Jie's eyes widened and he couldn't believe what he saw. That sword light cut off not only the rope, but also the heads of the two guards. The wound was extremely smooth, and the heads were cut off like vegetables.
He let out a shrill scream, which frightened Pebbles in Chao Huan's arms. He raised his head to see what happened, but Chao Huan held the back of his head.
"Don't move." Chao Huan said softly, and the pebbles did not move. He strained his ears to listen, but only heard a few rapid gasps, but soon, he heard nothing.
Chao Huan looked at Lian Yunlan who was standing in front of him. He also noticed the child in Chao Huan's arms. He casually dropped a soundproofing spell and walked towards Chen Jie step by step with his long sword in hand.
Chen Jie looked at the young man in front of him. He was obviously a young man, but he was holding a long sword with cold light. He had just killed two people, but his cold eyes were like looking at ants.
Perhaps to him, this was not killing, but just trampling to death two insignificant ants.
Chen Jie realized this, and he tried hard to control his legs that were unable to move due to fear. Under his strong will to survive, his legs finally began to move. He ran back like crazy, but he didn't even take two steps.
, his head also fell to the ground.
The last thing Chen Jie saw was the young man holding the sword turning towards the girl, the murderous aura in his body suddenly dissipated.
Lian Yunlan walked up to Chao Huan. He was about to say something, but Chao Huan raised her finger to her mouth. She pointed to the pebble in her arms and shook her head.
Lian Yunlan frowned, and a spiritual light flashed from the tip of his finger. The spiritual light fell on Xiao Shizi, and Xiao Shizi went limp and fainted.
He picked up Xiaoshizi's collar and put him on his shoulders. To him, Xiaoshizi was as light as a feather. He chose to resist just because he didn't want to hold the child.
Chao Huan frowned disapprovingly, but in the end he didn't say anything and just let Lian Yunlan go.
"Do you want me to help kill everyone?" When he opened his mouth, it was full of blood, just like what Chen Jie had just thought. For Lian Yunlan now, killing people is like killing ants and is not worth mentioning.
.
But Chao Huan doesn't like him killing innocent people indiscriminately. Although most people are not innocent, they may be out of conscience or for other reasons... whether they are those who are killed or they are stained by killing.
Even Yunlan was so bloody that she didn't want to.
Chao Huan shook his head and said, "No need, help me find the embroiderer, so that she can be buried safely."
Lian Yunlan frowned and said dissatisfied: "It's just a human woman."
"She is a mother." Chao Huan said, looking at Lian Yunlan's still frowning brows, and continued: "When my mother-in-law died, I didn't have the chance to bury her. At least let the child be in front of her mother's grave on the anniversary of her death.
Let’s worship.”
Only then did Lian Yunlan agree.
Chao Huan thought for a while, but still didn't deal with the Liu family. If Xiao Shizi still hated him, he would let him deal with it himself.
Originally, I went out to buy some loose items, but I didn't expect to encounter something like this. Xiao Shizi experienced the pain of losing his mother and was knocked unconscious by Lian Yunlan. He couldn't buy anything this time.
So Chao Huan asked Lian Yunlan to go back with Xiao Shizi who fainted. When he arrived, he asked Lian Yunlan to hide himself and went back holding Xiao Shizi.
Chao Huan came back empty-handed with the unconscious Xiao Shizi. Everyone was shocked, thinking that Xiao Shizi had fainted halfway, but Qie Yuan saw at a glance that Xiao Shizi's eyes were red and he had cried.
He realized something and asked directly: "Did something happen to Xiao Shizi's mother?"
The children here more or less know each other's life experiences, and everyone knows what happened to Xiao Shizi's mother. After all, Xiao Shizi always talks about taking his mother to live with him in the future, and how he wants to introduce his friends to his mother.
how.
Qie Yuan found out all the information about everyone except A Ruo, who couldn't speak. A Ruo was the first child adopted by Zhu Shu, but because he couldn't speak, he had to rely on his eyes to communicate with other people.
and actions, so everyone has never figured out the origin of A Ruo.
Qie Yuan knew that Xiao Shizi would definitely visit his mother when he went to the city today. Seeing how badly he looked, he guessed that something had happened to his mother.
Chao Huan put Pebbles on the bed and covered Pebbles with a quilt. Hearing this, he glanced at Qie Yuan, who met her gaze without hesitation.
After a moment, Chao Huan sighed.
"Yes...but this is Xiao Shizi's business. I can't tell you. When Xiao Shizi wakes up, he can decide whether to tell you or not."
Several children are very concerned about Xiao Shizi. Although they usually have small quarrels, when the children encounter difficulties, they are more anxious than anyone else and even eat dinner absent-mindedly.
In the afternoon of the second day, Xiao Shizi slowly woke up. As soon as he woke up, he saw his friends surrounding him. The others were very happy when they saw him waking up.
"Xiao Shizi, you finally woke up."
"Xiao Shizi, what happened to you? Why did you faint when you went to the street with Sister Shu? Did something happen to you?"
When Xiao Shizi heard the concerned words of his friends, he remembered everything that happened before he fainted, and his eyes suddenly turned red.
He glanced around with red eyes at the concerned expressions of his friends, and saw Chao Huan with a gentle smile beside him, and finally decided to tell his friends everything.
He spoke slowly, from when he and Chao Huan went to Yunbie Building, to when he was led into the backyard, and when Chen Jie told his mother that she was dead...
Xiao Shizi told everything, but he fell into a coma later. He didn't know why he left unharmed. Being immersed in the grief of his mother's death, he didn't think of this problem at the first time.
But none of the friends noticed this problem. They were all very angry because of what happened to Xiao Shizi and sad about Xiao Shizi's mother. Erya even threatened to confront the Liu family, but was finally persuaded to come back by the calm Xiaoxi.
Already.
Only Qie Yuan, after listening to everything Xiao Shizi said, he quietly looked at Chao Huan, but only saw her calm and composed smile. After a moment, he fell into deep thought. This chapter has been completed!
