"Let's all disperse, it's already dark, why don't you have food?" the village chief scolded.
The villagers smiled and dispersed. The village chief turned and told Shen Tang, "If you need help with anything, just come to me."
He glanced at the stubborn old Mrs. Shen without saying anything, and the ugly-faced old man Shen shook his head and left.
It is said that it is difficult for an upright official to deal with household affairs, not to mention that he is just a village chief. As long as no one is killed, he can't control that much.
"Go and see how Da Ya is doing. I'll take Xingwan back to her room." Mrs. Zhang told Shen Tang, took Shen Xingwan's hand and led her back to the room.
As soon as he closed the door, he said to Shen Xingwan, "Sit on the bed and let me take a look at your injury."
Shen Xingwan sat on the bed obediently, and Mrs. Zhang carefully opened her clothes. From her left shoulder to her left breast, it was obvious that the stick marks had turned blue-purple, and even had red bloodshot marks.
It was also obviously swollen, which looked particularly shocking on Shen Xingwan's snow-white and delicate skin.
"Does it hurt?" Mrs. Zhang touched it lightly.
"Hiss..." Shen Xing gasped late and winced in pain.
"She's so cruel that she even kills you." Ms. Zhang's eyes turned red, "It's all my fault that my mother is useless and can't protect you."
Seeing Shi's tears, Shen Xingwan felt a little at a loss and comforted him awkwardly, "It actually doesn't hurt very much."
She has become accustomed to being invulnerable and used to erecting thorns to protect herself forcefully.
No one had cried for her for a long time. Shen Xingwan stretched out her chubby hand to wipe Mrs. Zhang's tears, "Mom, I'm afraid of them."
Mrs. Zhang hugged her and said, "Don't be afraid as long as your mother is here, no one can bully you!"
I became more determined in my heart that we must separate the family. After being beaten like this a few times, I would definitely be broken.
Mrs. Zhang was worried, "I'll ask your father to call the doctor to come and take a look at you."
"Forget it, it's just that the bruises will disappear in two days." Shen Xingwan shook his head, there were enough things to do today.
Mrs. Zhang hesitated, "Let's take a look. This bruise looks quite scary."
"I remember there is some medicine in the medicine box. Just find some and rub it on me." Shen Xingwan said.
Banxia quickly found a box of ointment and applied it on her. Mrs. Zhang told her to go see if there was anyone in Daya who needed help.
The fat cat jumped into her arms, wagging its tail dissatisfied, "Why are you so weak, and you were bullied so easily."
"I'm only seven years old, not seventeen. Do I want to be burned to death as a monster if I go too far?"
And with such a pampered little body, who can it beat?
"When will I start my career?" Fat Meow never forgets his mission.
"Of course it's best to separate the families first and start working on it. The road has to be walked step by step and the food has to be eaten one bite at a time. Do you understand?" Wei Xi said angrily.
Fat Meow shook his big tail majestically, "You don't want to be lazy anyway, let alone lie down and be that salted fish!"
Shen Xiaoguo knocked on the door, then opened the door and walked in openly and showily.
Shen Xingwan looked at him in amusement as he straightened his chest and grimaced, "Why are you here?"
"This is Jingyi's room. I can come whenever I want." Shen Xiaoguo sat down on the stool without ceremony.
"Thank you for protecting me today." Shen Xingwan thought that bears still have to be coaxed, so she ordered Banxia, "Bring us back some pastries and give Xiaoguo a pack."
Shen Xiaoguo, who is as strong as a calf, is obviously a foodie. He couldn't take his eyes away from the exquisite pastries, but he said, "Don't try to bribe me with a bag of pastries."
"I saved it for everyone, since you don't want to eat it, forget it." Shen Xingwan deliberately asked Banxia to put it away.
Shen Xiaoguo hugged her and said, "This is my reward for protecting you today."
With a glass of cold water, Shen Xiaoguo quickly finished the whole package of pastries, and patted his belly with satisfaction, "If you have any delicious food in the future, share it with me. I will protect you. If anyone dares to bully you, I will beat them." !”
Shen Xingwan looked at him slyly, "Then you must remember what you said today."
Shen Xiaoguo patted his chest with loyalty, "Don't worry, I won't forget it!"
Shen Yu felt something was wrong as soon as he got home. Usually the yard and kitchen were the busiest at this time, but now they were too quiet.
Just when he was wondering, Shen Xiaoguo happened to push the door out of Shen Xingwan's room with a happy look on his face.
"Xiaoguo, what happened at home?" Shen Yu asked.
Shen Xiaoguo's eyes lit up, and he rushed to Shen Yu in a few steps, and started to tell him about today's events with excitement, "Brother, let me tell you..."
After Shen Yu went to see Da Ya who was still unconscious, he went to Shen Xingwan's room and knocked on the door.
"Who?" Banxia asked softly.
"Shen Yu."
The door immediately opened from the inside, and Banxia called out softly, "Master."
"What about Wan Wan?"
"Miss, she is asleep."
Shen Yu hesitated for a moment before walking to the table in front of the bed and sitting down, not knowing what he was thinking.
Banxia hesitated for a moment, then walked over and patted Shen Xingwan gently, "Miss, please wake up."
Shen Xingwan woke up soon and asked sleepily, "What's wrong?"
"The young master is here."
Shen Xingwan sat up immediately and looked at him with a flushed face.
Shen Yu's eyes were complicated. The girl in front of him was as beautiful as the doll in the New Year pictures. It looked like she had been pampered and grown up. He couldn't imagine how she would survive in the mess of the Shen family.
"Does it hurt?" Shen Yu asked softly.
Shen Xingwan shook his head and nodded, "It hurts a little bit."
Shen Yu was silent for a while, "You shouldn't have come back."
"I am the daughter of the Shen family, where will I go if I don't come back?"
"You are so smart and lovable. As long as you want, you can always stay in the Hou Mansion." Shen Yu said in a calm tone.
Shen Xingwan tilted his head helplessly. He was indeed a young man who would be famous all over the world in the future. He was not so easy to fool.
"You stay, what next? Do you want me, the fake daughter, to continue to be favored, or do you want Su Jing to get back everything that belongs to her?"
"Brother, you are so smart, don't you really think that we can have no barriers and get along as close as sisters?"
Shen Yu looked at her with complicated eyes, "You see clearly."
"So if I really faced off against her, who do you want to win?" Shen Xingwan asked curiously.
"Are you afraid today? You saw the truest and most miserable side of the Shen family." Shen Yu did not answer her question directly.
Shen Xingwan didn't force him to make a choice now, as the future was long.
She lowered her eyes and looked at him eagerly, and said softly, "I'm afraid, but if my brother protects me, I won't be so afraid."
"Of course I will protect you, you are my sister." Shen Yu answered decisively this time.
Shen Xingwan smiled at him, revealing his slight dimples.
