The younger sister-in-law falsely accused the sickly uncle and ran away with the baby

Shen Chou's knife stopped one centimeter away from Shen Laocai's neck. His face was full of disbelief. "You...what did you say?"

Yu Ruyue repeated the conversation they had just had.

"You may not be his biological son, otherwise he wouldn't say such words and wouldn't treat you like this."

"Right! I remember he seemed to be spending every day in the gambling house and had no source of income. However, he not only had a house in the town, but he also kept a woman. I heard that woman gave birth to a daughter for him, and now she's pregnant again. As for Shen Shu being out there for so long without coming back, it was also because he kept her. So who was it that gave him the money to live such a comfortable life in the town?!"

Shen Chou's heart was pounding, and his eyes were fixed on Shen Laocai, whose face turned black from being hit on the ground.

Since he was a child, he always believed that it was because of his illness that he was a burden to his family and his mother, so his father disliked him and wished he would die.

But every time he was about to die, Shen Laocai would try his best to save him.

Later, Shen Laocai died one after another due to accidents. He was sent to prison by that vicious woman, where he met that person. Between life and death, he was forced to learn martial arts. Then came the war. They escaped from prison during the chaos and have lived together until today, but they have never doubted their own life experience...

He had been the Minister of Justice for so many years, and he knew that Yu Ruyue's guess was very likely to be true.

What about his biological father?!

Who on earth gives Mr. Shen money year after year? Why does he give him money?

And his illness...why had he been so sick for the past 20 years? But since that vicious woman sent him to prison, he'd gotten healthier and healthier?

Yu Ruyue quickly helped the man up and comforted him, "Brother! This is just my guess. Let's tie up Shen Laocai first and ask him about it when he wakes up."

Shen Chou felt the warmth coming from his arm and finally came to his senses. "Okay! Leave this man to me, you guys go and do your own things."

Seeing him distracted, Yu Ruyue felt a little worried. "Why don't you hand this person over to me? You're not in good health yet. If he says something that makes you sick, it would be more trouble than it's worth."

Yu Dehou and Liang Shulan were also there, constantly comforting him.

Shen Chou took a deep breath and put a smile on his face again, "Don't worry! I will be fine."

Seeing that he was really insistent, Yu Ruyue reminded him to call them if anything happened. Only then did she let Yu Shi and Yu Tian help Shen Chou take Shen Laocai to the east room.

After settling everyone down, the family of five continued to make things to sell tomorrow.

In the evening, Yu Ruyue brought the food to the door of the east room, knock, knock, knock!

"Brother, the food is ready. I've brought your portion over."

dong dong dong.

"Brother, are you in there? Are you feeling unwell?"

Still no response!

Yu Ruyue was in a panic. Could it be that something had happened to this uncle, the Holy Father?

"Brother! If you don't open the door, I'm going to kick it in."

There was still no sound from Yu Ruyue inside. She quickly put the food in her hand aside, then raised her foot and kicked the door hard.

As a result, the moment her foot touched the door, the door suddenly opened from the inside. Shen Chou appeared at the door with sweat on his face. Seeing that Yu Ruyue's foot was about to kick Shen Chou, it was too late to change the route.

Unexpectedly, the uncle who had always been sickly suddenly turned sideways very flexibly, grabbed her ankle that had kicked her, and pulled her forward suddenly, pulling her into his arms when she was about to fall. His dry and powerful big hands tightly pinched her slender waist that could be held in one hand.

In order to avoid falling, Yu Ruyue hurriedly hugged Shen Chou's neck, and the two of them hugged each other in a very awkward posture.

She even had an illusion that Shen Chou seemed to bury his head in the crook of her neck, taking a deep breath and letting out a comfortable sigh...

"Girl, what's going on? Did you kick the door open?"

"Wait, we'll be here to help you soon."

Yu Ruyue hurriedly pushed the person in front of her away. Shen Chou felt the violent struggle of the person in his arms. His first reaction was to hug this person tightly in his arms and never separate again!

As Yu Ruyue felt the increasing force on her waist, she quickly pounded Shen Chou's chest and whispered, "Uncle, let go. I'm fine. My parents should be here soon."

Shen Chou finally came to his senses and quickly let go of the person in his arms.

As soon as the two of them separated, Yu Dehou, Liang Shulan and the other three hurried over. Seeing the two standing inside the house without saying a word, they asked curiously, "What are you two doing standing here? We shouted for a long time outside, but there was no response. I thought something had happened. I was really scared."

Yu Ruyue thought of that burning chest and the pounding heartbeat, and suddenly turned her head away with a guilty conscience, "Nothing...Brother just opened the door."

Shen Chou looked at the guilty expression on the little goblin's face, and the depression in his heart suddenly disappeared.

"Uncle, Auntie, I just fell asleep in the house and didn't hear the noise outside. I'm sorry for making you worry."

"Oh right! You don't have to bring the food to me separately. Let's go to the west room to eat together. The smell in this room is really unpleasant because of that person."

Seeing that the two children were indeed fine, Yu Dehou and Liang Shulan looked at Shen Laocai, whose face was covered by his clothes and motionless in the corner, and nodded, "Okay! While he's still asleep, let's go out for dinner as a family. It'll be more lively."

The corners of Shen Chou's mouth curled up slightly, "Okay! Let's eat together as a family..."

After Shen Chou finished speaking, he bent down and picked up the food on the ground, then pulled Yu Ruyue's arm with one hand and pushed her out. "I just slept and sweated profusely. Change clothes first, and I'll come to find you later."

When Yu Ruyue came to her senses, the person had already been pushed out with hot food in his hands. But just as she was about to turn around and leave, she suddenly smelled a faint smell of blood in the air besides the aroma of food.

That smell seemed to come from Shen Chou. Could he be injured again? This shouldn't be the case. When they were hugging each other just now, it was clear...

When Yu Ruyue thought of the scene just now, her ears suddenly felt hot. It must be because she had handled pork too much, and her body was carrying that bloody smell.

Thinking of this, she turned around and left with the food, not forgetting to remind him: "Brother! The temperature will drop at night, so don't wear too thin clothes. You will feel cold after the sweat disappears."

Shen Chou responded softly, "Okay," but his hands did not move. He just stood quietly at the door and listened to the footsteps slowly fading away. His originally gentle and kind smile suddenly collapsed, becoming gloomy and terrifying.

He stared intently at Shen Laocai in the corner, lifted the clothes covering his face, revealing the extremely terrified face underneath, "Woo woo woo..."
