After Yu Xiaolian went through all kinds of hardships and brought Zhao Erya home, it was already dark.

Fortunately, she carried Zhao Erya for a while and Zhao Erya woke up, otherwise she really wouldn't know what to do.

When she got home, Mrs. Sun was anxiously tossing back and forth at the door. When she saw Yu Xiaolian coming back, she burst into tears and her legs were so weak that she could no longer stand.

Yu Xiaolian quickly stepped forward to support Mrs. Sun who was about to fall, "Mom, stop crying. Didn't I come back fine?"

"Lian'er, where have you been? Do you know that I was scared to death when I saw those two pieces of cloth on the ground in front of our house and no sign of you?"

Yu Xiaolian helped Sun into the house. After calming down Sun's mood, she realized that not only Yu Changhe had gone out to look for her, but Su Jingchen had also gone.

Moreover, Yu Changhe also went to Mingxiang Tower and asked Zheng Yuanfeng and Shopkeeper Hai for help.

At this time, these people were still looking for her outside and she had not returned.

Yu Xiaolian wanted to go out to find them and come back, but Mrs. Sun held her back and prevented her from going out alone again.

Mrs. Sun's mood relaxed a little, and then she noticed that the dirty girl Yu Xiaolian brought back actually looked familiar.

Of course, Yu Xiaolian looked quite embarrassed now, but compared to Zhao Erya who looked like a tabby cat when she cried, she looked much cleaner.

Just when Mrs. Sun was about to ask Yu Xiaolian, Yu Changhe came back dejectedly.

Immediately afterwards, Su Jingchen and Zheng Yuanfeng also came back one after another.

Yu Xiaolian told everyone what happened.

"You mean...Yu Wanying?" Su Jingchen's face turned cold, "It seems that Mr. Li didn't keep the secret after all."

"Lianmei, don't worry, my brother will find someone to take care of Yu Wanying for you." The folding fan in Zheng Yuanfeng's hand swung together menacingly.

"There is no need to mobilize people, Yu Wanying and I can solve it by myself."

Su Jingchen glanced at Zheng Yuanfeng.

Don't compete with me!

Zheng Yuanfeng stared back unconvinced, "Playing gongs and selling sweets—each of us does his own thing. We each rely on our abilities!"

Yu Xiaolian saw that the two of them were equally at odds with each other, and was afraid that they would make things worse. She didn't want to confront the General's Mansion just yet.

If she, a commoner, makes trouble for the general's lady, isn't she looking for death?

"Don't be impulsive about this matter, let's discuss it in the long run!"

"Leave it alone!" Su Jingchen and Zheng Yuanfeng said in unison.

Yu Xiaolian, "..."

Yu Xiaolian should be happy that the two of them had a rare consensus of opinion, but if the two of them made a big fuss, she would be the unlucky one.

"I plan to handle this matter by myself without the help of you two."

"No!" They said in unison again.

Yu Xiaolian had no choice but to say in the end, "It's up to you! Just don't involve me."

The tit-for-tat confrontation between these two people almost made Yu Xiaolian think that the two of them were jealous.

Fortunately, she was familiar with the script and knew that Zheng Yuanfeng was Yu Yanran's loyal pursuer and could not possibly like her.

Su Jingchen is another thousand-year-old single with no emotional line.

After talking about Yu Wanying, Yu Changhe and Sun set their sights on Zhao Erya again.

"This child...is the second daughter of the Zhao family of our village, right?"

Zhao Erya knelt on the ground with a plop, sobbing and said, "Uncle Yu and Auntie, please take me in? I am willing to stay in your house and be a maid."

Yu Changhe was stunned, "It's really Erya, what's going on?"

Mrs. Sun asked Yu Xiaolian to pull Zhao Erya up.

Then Zhao Erya told the story of being sold while sobbing.

"My parents sold me to a place like a brothel to eat people, and they treated me as dead.

It’s impossible for me to go back to that home, and if I go back, I might be sold by them again.”

After saying that, he burst into tears again and again, and everyone in the room couldn't bear the crying.

Yu Changhe and Sun looked at each other and were a little undecided for a moment.

Although Yu Xiaolian was picked up by them, she has been raising her since she was a child and has feelings for them. Zhao Erya is already so old, so I am afraid she is not well-raised.

Although she felt sorry for Zhao Erya, Mrs. Sun still said, "It's not that we don't want to take you in, it's because my family can't afford to support a maid given the conditions of our family.

If you survive a catastrophe, you will be blessed later. Since you escaped from that cannibalistic place, I think you are a blessed child.

Go home. Maybe your parents will regret it after selling you. There are no cruel parents in the world.

Talk to your parents and ask them to find a good family for you to marry if there are too many mouths like yours in the family."

Zhao Erya's face was pale and weak, and he fell to the ground in despair, "On the day I was sold to Baihualou, I had already said harsh words to my parents.

If you can't take me in, even if I'm begging for food in Yangcheng, I won't go back to that home."

"This..." Sun was in a dilemma.

Yu Xiaolian helped Zhao Erya up from the ground, sighed and said to Sun, "Mom, since Erya has nowhere to go, shall we keep her?"

You can't really watch Zhao Erya go begging for food on the street, right?

Sun looked at Yu Changhe with a troubled expression, waiting for Yu Changhe to make up his mind.

Yu Changhe frowned and stared at Zhao Erya for a long time before slowly speaking, "Even if you voluntarily stay as a maid, then we will use you as a maid? Don't you regret it?"

Zhao Erya heard the meaning of Yu Changhe's words and immediately replied, "Uncle Yu, just give me a place to stay and a bite to eat."

Yu Changhe said sternly, "Although my family has never kept a maid, I still know that raising a maid requires a monthly payment. It's just a higher payment but a lower payment. I have to discuss it with your aunt before telling you."

Zhao Erya burst into tears with joy and knelt down again in front of Yu Changhe and Sun, saying that she didn't want monthly money or anything.

Her deed is still in the hands of the old madam of Baihualou. As long as the Yu family is willing to take her in, protect her and prevent her from being taken back by the old madam, she will be grateful. There is no way she would dare to ask for monthly money.

Mrs. Sun asked Yu Xiaolian to take Erya to wash up first, but before they could walk out of the door of the east room, Zhao Erya fainted again.

Yu Xiaolian and Su Jingchen quickly carried Zhao Erya to the kang.

Zheng Yuanfeng felt Zhao Erya's pulse and told everyone, "She was fainting from hunger, and her mood fluctuated too much, so it's nothing serious. This girl's body is quite good, and she will recover within two days at most."

.”

Sun and Yu Changhe, who were originally nervous, felt relieved after hearing Zheng Yuanfeng's words.

Su Jingchen stared at the redness and swelling on Yu Xiaolian's wrist and the dried blood on her palm, with a flash of determination in her eyes.

He will never let Yu Wanying go easily!

Just when Yu Xiaolian thought she could finally take a break, Su Jingchen suddenly asked, "How did you escape from Baihua Tower?"

Since Yu Wanying sent people from Baihualou to arrest Yu Xiaolian, she should not let her go so easily.

Yu Xiaolian was silent for a moment and then said, "We met a strange woman in the bamboo forest behind Baihua Building. She seemed to know me. She probably has something to do with my life experience."

"You mean...your biological parents?"

Yu Xiaolian nodded, "I'm just guessing. She didn't tell me anything about that person, she just asked people to let me go. I offered to redeem Erya's body, and she didn't ask for my money. Not only did she let me release Erya

He took her away and gave me her body deed."

Yu Changhe and Sun looked at each other, and their expressions changed. They were worried that Yu Xiaolian would leave them if she found her biological parents.

"That person also said that if I have any difficulties in the future, I can go to her for help. In short, she doesn't seem to have any ill intentions towards me."

Yu Xiaolian felt that it would be better to find fellow witches first, rather than being alone and weak.

Su Jingchen frowned, "You mean in the bamboo forest behind Baihua Tower?"

Bamboo is a difficult plant to survive in the North. There is actually a large area behind Baihua Building?

"Yes, but that woman gives me the feeling that she is a very powerful master. You two must not provoke her."

Yu Xiaolian quickly warned Su Jingchen and Zheng Yuanfeng.

Zheng Yuanfeng said, "Just because I don't have any ill intentions towards you now doesn't mean I won't in the future. Don't be so foolish as to trust her, you know?"

"I'm someone you can trust."

When Yu Xiaolian thought of the woman's words, her heart rippled, and she suddenly felt that Zheng Yuanfeng's advice was reasonable.

"I understand, it's too late today, you should go back first. What happened today has made you worry, but it won't happen again in the future."

She must be extremely vigilant when she goes out in the future, and she will never be attacked easily again.
