Chapter 2079 All dead
Chapter 2079 All dead
Chen Changli and Wan Shufang were also well aware of this result. Although they could see clearly that Su Yueshuang was also an accomplice, they could not convict her and could only nod to the county magistrate.
After receiving the order, the county magistrate immediately breathed a sigh of relief and patted the table.
"Su Yueshuang, since Zhao Dachuan said you were not involved, then forget it. But you can escape the death penalty, but you can't escape the punishment of life. Someone, take her away and give her ten heavy beatings."
"If you get spanked, go back. This is a punishment for your cruel treatment of the child."
After hearing this, Su Yueshuang wanted to say something else, but when she saw the magistrate's serious expression, she finally shut up and went down obediently to accept the punishment.
Before leaving, she glanced at Chen Changli and Wan Shufang with resentment in her eyes, secretly hating them for killing her lover and causing her to be beaten with a stick.
If looks could kill, Chen Changli and Wan Shufang would have died hundreds of times by now.
Wan Shufang was not afraid of her angry glare at all. She looked over coldly and warned in a low voice: "Su Yueshuang, you have managed to save your life with great difficulty. You'd better take care of yourself."
"Hmph, it's still unclear who will win or lose." Su Yueshuang snorted coldly and walked out of the yamen. Soon, her screams were heard outside.
Chen Changli and Wan Shufang turned a deaf ear to all this and only worriedly thought of countermeasures, not wanting Su Yueshuang to escape this disaster.
In the evening, the two left the county government office.
As a result, she met Yuanyuan as soon as she went out. The little guy had red and swollen eyes, and was holding a basket in his hand. He ran to Wan Shufang in small steps.
She lifted the cloth on the basket, revealing the fresh fruits inside: "Aunt Shufang, these are the fruits I picked myself. Thank you for helping me. I was able to escape my father's beating."
The little girl put the basket in Wan Shufang's hands. Wan Shufang wanted to refuse, but seeing her serious expression and pitiful look, she was moved and accepted the basket.
Handing the basket to Chen Changli, Wan Shufang took Xiao Yuanyuan's hand and said gently, "Thank you Yuanyuan for picking the fruit for me. I like it very much. Can I give you a gift as well?"
"What gift?" Yuanyuan blinked her big eyes and looked at Wan Shufang curiously. Seeing that she had nothing in her hand, she thought she was lying to her.
But the next second, I heard Wan Shufang say, "Auntie will take you to buy new clothes."
After saying this, Wan Shufang told Chen Changli to take the fruit and took Yuanyuan shopping to pick out new clothes. Yuanyuan was very quiet throughout the whole process, but when it came to paying, she suddenly broke free from Wan Shufang's hand.
"Aunt Shufang, I don't want new clothes. You don't have to buy me any." After saying that, Yuanyuan ran out of the store. Wan Shufang became anxious and worried that something might happen to her, so she quickly chased after her.
"Yuanyuan, wait for me."
When she finally caught up with Yuanyuan and was about to take her back, the little one refused to go no matter what and was very resistant to the new clothes.
Seeing this, Wan Shufang sighed deeply. She knew that the child didn't want her to spend money, so she didn't force her. She just squatted down and said softly: "Yuanyuan, since you don't want new clothes, then we won't buy them."
"But it's late now, and my aunt and uncle are hungry. Can we go eat first?"
After hearing this, Yuanyuan finally gave up and followed Chen Changli and Wan Shufang to dinner. After the two treated her to dinner, Yuanyuan went back obediently.
Watching the little girl walking away, Chen Changli and Wan Shufang couldn't help but sigh that this child is so sensible and it makes people feel distressed.
"Changli, it's really pitiful for Yuanyuan to be left alone and helpless like such a well-behaved child. Why don't we find a suitable adoptive family for her?"
Hearing this, Chen Changli nodded, smiled and took her hand: "That's what I was thinking."
"It's too late today. I'll look for him tomorrow."
"it is good."
After making up their minds, the two turned around and went back to the inn. On the street, the moonlight stretched their shadows and then gradually disappeared.
the next day.
When Chen Changli and Wan Shufang went to Yuanyuan's house again, intending to tell her about the adoption plan, they found that no one answered the door no matter how hard they knocked.
Thinking that Su Yueshuang was still alive, Wan Shufang suddenly became anxious: "Will Yuanyuan be in trouble?"
Chen Changli's eyes darkened. Seeing that he still couldn't knock the door open, he took two steps back, raised his foot, and kicked the door open.
The two of them walked in hurriedly and looked around for the little figure in the dilapidated courtyard. Soon, they found Yuanyuan in a small room.
At this moment, Yuanyuan was lying motionless on the floor of the house, with traces of blood beside her...
"Yuanyuan!" Wan Shufang exclaimed, ran over quickly, and picked up the thin little body, but her hand touched something sticky, so she took her hand out to take a look.
What comes into view is a bright red color!
"Yuanyuan!"
Wan Shufang's eyes widened. Even though she couldn't believe it, she could only carefully put the little guy down and reach out to feel her pulse.
It was unknown how long the little guy had been dead. He had no pulse and his body was cold. She hadn't even noticed it just now...
The blood on the back of her head had not completely dried up because she was lying flat.
Wan Shufang suddenly collapsed in Chen Changli's arms, pointing at the little girl, tears welling up in her eyes: "Changli, Yuanyuan is dead...dead."
"The impact on the back of the head is a fatal injury. It must have been done by Su Yueshuang. I didn't expect that this woman would still make me worry even after being beaten with a stick!" Wan Shufang gritted her teeth, her eyes sharp. It was the first time that she had such a strong murderous intent towards someone.
Looking at Yuanyuan's body, Chen Changli felt a little touched. Yesterday, she was still the little girl who could run and laugh.
Today, it has turned into a cold corpse.
Thinking of this, Chen Changli's eyes also flashed with coldness: "I have just searched this yard, Su Yueshuang is not here, I don't know if she ran away because of fear."
"No matter what, we must catch her and give her justice."
"I'll send the secret guards out to look for her later." He swallowed and looked at Yuanyuan: "Now, we still have to deal with Yuanyuan's funeral first."
Hearing this, Wan Shufang hesitated for a moment, worried that Su Yueshuang would run away and she would not be able to avenge Yuanyuan. She gritted her teeth and said in a deep voice, "We can't wait to capture Su Yueshuang. I'll clean up Yuanyuan and let An Yi help bury her."
Knowing that she was really angry this time, Chen Changli did not stop her and went out to call An Yi, while Wan Shufang fetched water to wipe the little guy's body.
After packing up, she handed Yuanyuan over to An Yi, letting her rest in peace. She then went to the government office with Chen Changli to expose Su Yueshuang's actions.
But before the two could open their mouths, the county magistrate came running over in a hurry: "My lord, my lady, why are you here? I was just about to look for you."
Seeing that he was sweating anxiously, as if something big had happened, Wan Shufang froze, frowned and asked, "What happened?"
"Someone just sent me news that Su Yueshuang was drowned!"
