In the years of famine, I led a comfortable life with my husband

Xie Chengjin's expression immediately became serious. He quickly came to Jiaojiao's side, squatted down, and carefully lifted Jiaojiao's sleeves. He found that Jiaojiao's skin, which should have been smooth and delicate, was now covered with various scars. They appeared densely on the body of a child, which was shocking to look at.

"What on earth is going on?" Su Zhizhi naturally saw the scars and couldn't help but ask.

When Jiaojiao heard the voice, she subconsciously retracted her hand and then struggled to get into Su Zhizhi's arms.

Su Zhizhi comforted Jiaojiao in her arms and asked softly, "Jiaojiao, dear child, tell me, what is going on?"

If it were the old Jiaojiao, she would have told Su Zhizhi all the grievances she had suffered, but the current Jiaojiao just looked around the room and finally buried her head in Su Zhizhi's arms, refusing to say anything and refusing to let go.

Looking at Jiaojiao like this, and recalling who lives with Jiaojiao every day, Su Zhizhi suddenly had a terrible guess in her mind.

Su Zhizhi was shocked and anxious. She picked up Jiaojiao and went to her yard. Xie Chengjin clenched his hands and quickly followed.

After returning to her own yard, Su Zhizhi found that Jiaojiao in her arms was not shrinking as much.

Su Zhizhi looked at Jiaojiao's helpless eyes and felt heartbroken. At this point, how could Su Zhizhi not see that Jiaojiao was persecuted into this state by the nanny she had carefully found? Poor Jiaojiao was too young to resist the nanny at all.

Su Zhizhi gently placed Jiaojiao on her bed, then sat beside the bed and patiently comforted Jiaojiao until Jiaojiao fell into a deep sleep exhausted. Su Zhizhi then quietly breathed a sigh of relief. However, in her sleep, Jiaojiao was still a little restless, and she clutched Su Zhizhi's hand tightly as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw.

Su Zhizhi could only lower her voice and look at Xie Chengjin, "Ah Jin, Jiaojiao is now like this, it must be because of the abuse of the nanny! You saw the wounds on Jiaojiao's body just now clearly. Poor Jiaojiao, she suffered so much for nothing. I will make this nanny pay for it!"

Seeing that Su Zhizhi was about to go to the nanny to settle the score, Xie Chengjin quickly stopped Su Zhizhi, "Zhizhi, calm down!"

Su Zhizhi froze in her tracks, looking at Xie Chengjin with red eyes. "Ah Jin, Jiaojiao is lying there pitifully now, and she can't even sleep well. Tell me, how do you expect me to calm down? I wish I could cut that bitch into pieces to avenge Jiaojiao!"

Fortunately, Xie Chengjin hadn't completely lost his mind. He hugged Su Zhizhi and comforted her, explaining, "Jiaojiao is my child too, and naturally I feel bad for her. But if we go and confront the wet nurse right now, she'll definitely deny anything. We don't have any other evidence, so we can't convict her, let alone hand her over to the authorities. If we want her to suffer a miserable end, we must be patient."

"Then what do you think we should do now? Should we just ignore Jiaojiao's current condition?" Su Zhizhi's emotions were a little out of control.

"Of course not, but the timing is not right now. But I promise that I won't let Jiaojiao get hurt any more." Xie Chengjin said so, and Su Zhizhi had no better way, although Su Zhizhi did not agree with Xie Chengjin's suggestion.

When Jiaojiao's nanny heard that Jiaojiao was taken to the main courtyard, her heart skipped a beat. Previously, Su Zhizhi and Xie Chengjin had no time to take care of Jiaojiao, so the nanny was so presumptuous. But now the nanny is more afraid of losing her job, and even more afraid of losing her life.

However, the nanny had not seen Su Zhizhi and Xie Chengjin come to find her for a long time, and she was feeling very anxious. She could no longer bear such a nervous feeling, so she planned to find Su Zhizhi and his wife herself.

When the nanny came to the main courtyard, Jiaojiao had already woken up and was sitting with Su Zhizhi. However, no matter how Su Zhizhi talked to Jiaojiao, Jiaojiao said almost nothing, or she stammered a little and then closed her mouth tightly.

Seeing this, the nanny felt a little relieved. She then smiled and walked in. She looked at Su Zhizhi and Xie Chengjin in surprise and said, "I didn't expect that the master and the lady would come back, and the young lady would be here too. When I returned to the yard, I found that the young lady was missing. I was almost worried to death. Fortunately, she is with the lady."

As the nanny spoke, she observed the expressions of Su Zhizhi and Xie Chengjin.

Su Zhizhi looked at the wet nurse like this and wanted to drag her out and beat her to death with a stick. However, thinking of what Xie Chengjin had just said, Su Zhizhi could only suppress the hatred in her heart. She put on a false smile and said, "Ajin and I have rarely been in the mansion recently, and we really miss Jiaojiao. But who knew that this child would be so clingy and insisted on following me back. That's why I brought Jiaojiao to the main courtyard."

"Madam is a loving mother, and I believe the young lady misses you very much. But it's getting late now, and I should take the young lady back to the yard..." The nanny pretended to look at the sky outside, then turned to Su Zhizhi and said.

Su Zhizhi nodded and said, "Then you can take Jiaojiao back with you. It seems that you have taken good care of Jiaojiao."

Seeing that Su Zhizhi and Xie Chengjin really didn't find anything unusual, the nanny's heart was almost blossoming with joy. A smile appeared on her face, and then she walked forward, approached Jiaojiao, and wanted to take Jiaojiao away.

But as soon as the nanny approached Jiaojiao, Jiaojiao couldn't help but shrink back, looking extremely scared.

Su Zhizhi felt particularly sorry for Jiaojiao, but when her eyes met Xie Chengjin, she forced herself to endure it.

"I won't go! I won't go!" Seeing the nanny was about to go forward and pull Jiaojiao up, Jiaojiao burst into tears and her whole body twitched, saying intermittently that she didn't want to leave here.

Seeing this, the nanny could only stand there awkwardly. She then looked at Su Zhizhi for help and said carefully, "Young lady is not usually like this. Perhaps she misses Madam too much..."

Su Zhizhi didn't know how to start, so Xie Chengjin squatted down, looked at Jiaojiao and said, "Jiaojiao, be obedient. Dad and Mom still have some things to deal with. Can you come over in a few days?"

"I don't want it! I don't want it!..." Jiaojiao still said nothing, just kept crying.
