Chapter 23: Returning Home

So what about Yu Xiaoying?

She had no mother, and when her father was arrested again, she became an orphan.

Moreover, Yu Ziqiang killed Li Xinyi, where will she still have a foothold in the Li family in the future?

A small person, helpless, and wearing a hat of a murderer's daughter, not to mention where to work, it is not easy to beg for two mouthfuls of food in Wenchi County.

Thinking of Yu Xiaoying's petite and well-behaved appearance, Shen Yueran grabbed her heart.

"Hey, let's go." Seeing that Shen Yueran did not follow, the official turned around and shouted.

"Oh-" she replied, hurrying to follow.

The two of them went one after the other, and after a while, they passed by the Meijia cake shop.

During the day, as soon as she made a pot of shortbread, she was chased by the Li family.

She fled in a hurry, but the door of the cake shop remained open.

She thought about it, and her eyes had drifted away.

Just after the hour, the thin clouds covered the bright moon, and the vision became blurred.

It was faintly visible that the bread was spread all over the ground, and even the cloth tricks were torn apart.

There is a wrong, there is a debtor, Li Xinyi's murderer is Yu Ziqiang, why are you and a group of subordinates angry with me Shen Yueran? It's all a bunch of!

She was cursing when a sneezing sound suddenly came from behind the door of the bakery.

She was shocked and couldn't help but let out a "huh".

The official stopped and looked back at her killer, "What's wrong?" ”

She pointed to the cake shop and smiled flatteringly at the servant, "I pulled down a handkerchief during the day, and I happened to pass by at this time, so I sent the eldest brother to wait for a while, and the folk girl went to pick it up and left." ”

The official snorted, turned around, and agreed.

Shen Yueran didn't dare to delay, she was bold, walked into the cake shop, and slammed the door open.

Under the faint moonlight, Yu Xiaoying clasped her hands on her knees, opened her eyes wide, stuffed her mouth with shortbread, and trembled.

"Sister-"

Without waiting for Shen Yueran to ask, Yu Xiaoying spit out the shortbread in her mouth, got up from the ground and hugged her body with both hands, crying bitterly, "Sister, they scolded me, they beat me, they said that my father was a murderer, and they drove me out......"

The little girl cried sadly, and her immature voice was doubly sad in the night.

Shen Yueran's liver and intestines were broken.

It's just a child, why do you have to suffer so much?

She squatted down, wiped away Yu Xiaoying's tears, and coaxed softly, "Xiaoying, don't cry, they are all bad people, they didn't end well, you didn't do anything, it has nothing to do with you......"

At this time, the official waited impatiently and urged loudly, "Hey, hurry up." ”

Shen Yueran stood up, looked outside the dark door, and then looked at Xiao Ying, whose face was full of tears, and made up her mind.

She clenched the little hand in her hand and said, "Xiaoying, would you like to go home with your sister?" ”

Her idea is this, Yu Ziqiang's ten ** will be sentenced to death, but Xiaoying is still young. If Xiaoying is allowed to fend for herself, safety and hunger are one thing, and whether she will go down the wrong path is another matter. What's more, his father suddenly became a murderer, whether psychologically or emotionally, he needs a gradual process of acceptance and face-up.

At this time, Xiaoying needs someone to give her a "home".

She knew that it would be difficult for her to play the role of this "savior". The economy is one aspect, and whether Wu Zhaorong and the Shen family's father and son can tolerate it is another. And her reputation has always been bad, and she is a master who has suffered a lot of white eyes, and she doesn't know if she can shelter a little girl.

But at this time, she couldn't think too much, in short, she couldn't let Xiaoying sleep alone on the street......

Yu Xiaoying was stunned and sobbed, "Home? ”

"Yes, home, go back to my sister's house." Shen Yueran said softly, "My sister's family is very poor, but my sister can make shortbread, at least she won't let you starve." If others scold you, my sister will also scold them away, and she will not let you be bullied. ”

Yu Xiaoying blinked her eyes wide, and burst into a smile, "Okay, go back to my sister's house." ”

What a kid!

Shen Yueran groaned in her heart, took Yu Xiaoying's little hand, and walked out of the cake shop.

Turning a corner, the Shen family was close in front of him.

Shen Yueran thanked the servant, and the servant took out a money bag.

"The girl has to make shortbread and send it directly to the yamen, and the money for this cake will be paid in advance today." The official said as Wei Yi commanded.

Needless to say, Shen Yueran also understood who the "adult" in the mouth of the official was.

Although she was a little disappointed, the adults couldn't buy cakes in her cake shop in person, and by the way, they advertised for the cake shop, but when the money bag full of real money arrived, she only had surprises and no hypocrisy.

took the money bag and weighed only the amount, knowing that there was only more and no less.

Since he is true to his word, she can't be false.

Wake up early tomorrow and start making cakes!

I thanked the officials again, and the officials left.

"My sister's cake shop is doing well, and everyone from the yamen comes to patronize it." Yu Xiaoying looked envious.

Shen Yueran smiled and thought, what do children know? When she saw the money bag, did she forget the fright she was given in the court? Speaking of which, if she hadn't seen that the adult had a little guilt, how could she have a share in negotiating a deal with him?

Therefore, this person just can't have good thoughts in his heart, and once he has good in his heart, he will be led by the nose by others.

While sighing, she took Yu Xiaoying's hand and knocked on the door of the Shen family.

After a while, the door was opened by Shen Rihui.

"Yue-" He was surprised and delighted, as soon as he shouted a word, he quickly shrunk his neck, pulled Shen Yueran into the door, and then closed the door tightly as if he was afraid that someone would rush in.

"Yue'er, is there anything wrong? If it weren't for the clerical visit in the evening, my brother would have died in a hurry. How's that, can the real murderer be caught? Did the people of the Yamen embarrass you? Let my brother see—shhhh He looked Shen Yueran up and down and lowered his voice.

Shen Rihui should have not slept all the time, his clothes and shoes were neat, and he was waiting for her to come back.

Shen Yueran was a little flattered, she hadn't heard the title "Yue'er" for several years.

She also lowered her voice and said, "Caught, it's a worker in the charcoal shop." ”

She didn't say Yu Ziqiang's name directly. First, I was afraid of stimulating Yu Xiaoying beside me, and second, I was afraid of Wu Zhaorong's reaction after she knew that she brought the daughter of a murderer into the Shen family. She wanted to hide it first, but she couldn't hide it anymore.

Shen Rihui replied lightly and complained, "Fortunately, I caught it, if I can't catch it, will I keep you locked up?" This yamen is also, in order to catch the real murderer by unscrupulous means! Investigate the case, investigate the case, play any art of war, and lure the snake out of the hole. In case this matter spreads, how can the Shen family gain a foothold in Wenchi......

Shen Yueran glanced at Yu Xiaoying on the side, only to see that the little face under the shadow was pale.

"Ahem, ahem." She interrupted Shen Rihui's words and said, "Brother, the night is getting deeper, let's go rest first." Since I didn't tell my father about this, I have been hiding it from him, and I'm fine anyway, so I don't have to worry about him anymore. ”

Shen Rihui responded repeatedly, and just as he wanted to turn around and go back to the house, Wu Zhaorong came from the east wing wearing a coat.
