Yang Xiuxiu went to serve some food to Lin Ting and also made a bowl of porridge for Shen Wanyi.

"Lin Ting, give Xiaobao something to eat. I'll go to the street and buy her a set of clean clothes."

Yang Xiuxiu was filled with fear. She felt sorry for Xiaobao and Lin Ting. Fortunately, Xiaobao was still alive, otherwise she didn't know what to do.

"Okay! Your clothes are wet too, so you should buy yourself a set too."

"Eh!"

Yang Xiuxiu's heart was moved for a moment. At this moment, she really wanted Lin Ting to scold her and vent her anger. It was her fault that she did not take good care of Xiaobao.

It was already dark. This time, Wan Weiran asked a medicine boy to help Yang Xiuxiu drive the cart, so that she could walk less. There was still a long distance from Wanhetang to Yangtai Academy.

Yang Xiuxiu saw that the cloth pile was not closed, so she first went to buy two sets of clothes for Shen Wanyi. Since the ones she was wearing were almost dry, she didn't buy anything for herself.

After buying clothes, she got back on the carriage and headed towards Yangtai Academy.

In Yangtai Academy, Shen Qingzhou was studying under the lamp. Today he felt his eyelids were twitching all the time and he couldn't concentrate on reading.

He felt that he could never go back to the state he was before.

At this time, the friend who had gone to fetch water ran back in a hurry and didn't even have time to take a breath.

He leaned his hands on Shen Qingzhou's desk, sweating profusely.

"Qing...Qingzhou, someone is looking for you outside the academy gate. They said...that your daughter is in trouble and is being treated at Wanhe Hall."

what?

Shen Qingzhou's mind buzzed, and he stood up from the wheelchair, dropping the book in his hand.

His legs had not fully healed yet, and after running two steps, his legs started to hurt so much that he couldn't stand up and had to lean against the wall.

Seeing this, Hu Yuanqing turned around and supported Shen Qingzhou with an anxious look on his face.

"Shen Qingzhou, don't worry. You've finally been able to walk a few steps. If you collapse, what will happen to your daughter?"

Hu Yuanqing helped Shen Qingzhou sit in the wheelchair, and then he pushed Shen Qingzhou out.

"Yuan Qing, thank you!"

"Why don't you thank me? I just hope nothing happens to your daughter."

Hu Yuanqing pushed Shen Qingzhou to the gate of Yangtai Academy, and Yang Xiuxiu and the medicine boy helped him into the carriage.

When she saw her son, Yang Xiuxiu's guilt collapsed.

"Mom, don't cry first. What happened to Wanyi?"

Yang Xiuxiu wiped her tears and took several deep breaths before she could speak.

"Xiaobao fell into the river. It was my fault that I didn't keep an eye on her."

Shen Wanyi couldn't swim, and when Shen Qingzhou heard that she had fallen into the river, her face turned pale.

"So what about now? How is she doing at Wanhetang?"

Shen Qingzhou felt that the carriage was moving too slowly.

"She was seriously injured, but luckily her life wasn't in danger. Otherwise, how could I be worthy of you and Lin Ting?"

Shen Qingzhou comforted Yang Xiuxiu: "Mom, things haven't been clarified yet, don't take everything on yourself."

Shen Wanyi is very obedient and never takes the initiative to go to the river to play, and Lin Ting often reminds her.

Shen Qingzhou felt that this matter would not be so simple.

Ever since Shen Wanyi woke up, Lin Ting has never left her side, always caressing and comforting her.

He also personally fed her the porridge, and finally gave her medicine to treat the wound infection.

Seeing Yang Xiuxiu pushing Shen Qingzhou in at the door, Lin Ting moved a little so that Shen Qingzhou could see Shen Wanyi.

"Daddy!"

Seeing Shen Qingzhou coming, Shen Wanyi immediately extended his gauze-covered hand towards Shen Qingzhou.

Shen Qingzhou took her hand and placed it on his face.

"Wanyi, does it still hurt?"

Shen Wanyi shook his head: "With Daddy and Mommy here, Xiaobao doesn't feel any pain at all."

Shen Wanyi also didn't want to make her family worry about her, so as long as she could bear it, she would endure it silently.

"Grandma, have you bought Xiaobao's clothes? Put them on her first."

Yang Xiuxiu held a cloth bag in her hand, opened it and took out a set of clothes for Shen Wanyi to wear.

After changing clothes, Lin Ting let Shen Wanyi lie down again. After her emotions stabilized and she was no longer afraid, he asked her gently and carefully.

"Xiaobao, didn't you go wash the ball today? Why did you run so far to wash it?"

There was no blame in Lin Ting's voice, only endless heartache.

Shen Wanyi looked at her father and grandmother, and saw that neither of them wanted to scold her, but instead had worried looks in their eyes. Only then did she dare to speak in a wronged tone.

"Xiaobao's ball was snatched away by Aunt Shen Rou. She said she wanted to take it to the river to wash it, and asked Xiaobao to go to the river to get it from her, otherwise she would not return it to Xiaobao."

Shen Rou?

Hearing this name and Shen Wanyi's description, Lin Ting clenched her fists. She probably knew who had done this to her daughter.

Shen Qingzhou also looked at her, and held Lin Ting's fist with his big hand, signaling her to listen to Shen Wanyi finish first.

"Xiaobao, did Aunt Shen Rou return the ball to Xiaobao?"

Shen Wanyi shook her head: "No, she also beat Xiaobao, pulled Xiaobao's clothes, and dragged Xiaobao away."

Shen Wanyi, who was only three years old, was not very good at expressing herself. She pointed to the back of her collar and said that Shen Rou had pulled her there.

"So that's it!"

Lin Ting tried his best to lower his voice and emotions. So this was the reason why Shen Wanyi's heels were rubbed and bleeding, causing her shoes to fall off.

I originally thought that the Shen family would just quarrel and earn some food, but I didn't expect that Shen Rou, an unmarried girl, would actually have the idea of ​​killing someone.

She thought that she had not done anything excessive to Shen Jizu's family, and was just doing her duty.

They actually dared to do this again and again, so don't blame her for taking action.

"And then? Did she bully my little treasure?"

"Ok!"

Shen Wanyi looked at Shen Qingzhou, Yang Xiuxiu and the other two and nodded heavily.

"She took Xiaobao to a creek pond and threw his ball into the field across the way, forcing him to cross a single-plank bridge. Xiaobao was scared, so she beat him and kept beating him.

She asked Xiaobao to pick up the ball and said there was a monster under the stream that was going to eat him. Xiaobao got scared and fell into the water.

As she spoke, Shen Wanyi began to cry in fear again, and her little body burrowed into Lin Ting's arms.

"Mom, Xiaobao is scared. His foot was bitten by a water monster."

Lin Ting hugged her and comforted her softly.

"Don't be afraid, that's not a water monster. There are no water monsters in the world. Those are branches and stones, not water monsters. Shen Rou is lying to Xiaobao.

Xiaobao is fine now. Daddy, Mommy, and Grandma are here. We will all protect Xiaobao."

Shen Wanyi, who was already scared, was bitten by a snake on the ankle, which further confirmed the fact that there was a water monster.

"Go to sleep, little baby, mom is here for you."

After coaxing Shen Wanyi to sleep, Lin Ting called Wan Weiran and asked him to get a few more herbs and boil them.

It has been made very clear who harmed Shen Wanyi. Both Shen Qingzhou and Yang Xiuxiu were extremely angry and shocked.
