Huang Qiaolian bit her lower lip hard to control the urge to cry, but in the end, the tears still fell down.

In the end, she lay in Shen Yunshu's arms, crying loudly.

It was unknown how long it took for Huang Qiaolian to calm down. She said with a choked voice, "In the hearts of my parents and grandparents, they only have my brother. My older sisters were drowned in urine buckets by my grandmother right after they were born, or thrown into the mountains behind to feed wild wolves.

My mother gave birth to six daughters, and only my second sister and I survived. However, when my second sister reached the age to get married, she was sold to the deep mountains by my grandparents to be a wife to a family who could not afford it. Later, that family sent a letter saying that my sister died while giving birth.

If I go back now and see that I have lost an arm, they will only call me a jinx and kick me out of the house. Rather than being kicked out by them, I would rather starve to death outside.

After hearing what Huang Qiaolian said, Shen Yunshu frowned so hard that he could kill a fly. It turned out that there really are such cruel people in this world.

In the moment she lowered her head in thought, she secretly made a decision.

At night, while Huang Qiaolian was asleep, Shen Yunshu gathered her family together and told them her plan.

If Huang Qiaolian was sent back, she would be forced to death. Shen Yunshu was not a good person, but he could not bear to see such a thing happen.

Huang Qiaolian did nothing wrong. She deserved to be treated like this just because she was a girl. She even had one of her arms chopped off with a knife.

The point is, she is only nine years old.

In modern times, a nine-year-old child is at the age of a carefree elementary school student, loved by his parents and spoiled by his grandparents. But what about her?

Therefore, Shen Yunshu thought of sending Huang Qiaolian back to the Hongqi Brigade. The brigade was now setting up a school, and she paid for Huang Qiaolian to go to school.

After Huang Qiaolian graduates and starts working, she will no longer care about her.

Apart from this, she couldn't think of a better solution than this, and there was no way she would keep Huang Qiaolian in the staff quarters.

On the one hand, he had no habit of raising other people's children. Since the child was not from his own belly, Shen Yunshu always felt that there was a layer of barrier between him and her when he raised the child in front of him.

On the other hand, she has too many secrets, and one more person means more risk of exposure.

As expected, Shen Yunshu got the consent of the whole family, and now it depends on Huang Qiaolian's own choice.

If she disagrees, Shen Yunshu will send her back to the Public Security Bureau and ask the people there to help find a way to send her home. What happens after that will have nothing to do with him because she has already been given a choice.

The next day, Shen Yunshu told Huang Qiaolian the family's decision.

"The Red Flag Brigade is where I went to work in the countryside before. The uncles and aunts there are very welcoming. If you go there, they will help my sister take care of you.

As for the cost of schooling and living expenses, don't worry, I will have someone send them to you every month."

Huang Qiaolian blinked her big eyes and remained silent. Just when Shen Yunshu thought she disagreed, she spoke:

"Sister, consider this money as a loan from you. When I have money, I will definitely pay you back."

Sister Shen has helped her a lot, and she can't cause trouble to Sister Shen anymore.

"Just do as you say." Shen Yunshu agreed.

In the afternoon, she called the commune. Coincidentally, Du Shouquan, a representative of the advanced commune, was receiving commendation from the county at that time.

However, when Du Shouquan heard Shen Yunshu calling him, the commendation meeting was just halfway through, and he ran to answer the phone in a hurry.

In their team, no one and nothing is more important than Shen Yunshu.

The call was connected.

Shen Yunshu briefly told Du Shouquan about Huang Qiaolian's situation on the phone, and only at the end of her words did she state her purpose.

Du Shouquan agreed without any hesitation, and assured her on the phone that he would take good care of the person.

After his worries were resolved, Shen Yunshu took Huang Qiaolian to the Public Security Bureau and explained the situation to Zhang Liang and others.

Everyone felt sorry for Huang Qiaolian's situation, so they pooled some money and put it in Huang Qiaolian's hands.

Huang Qiaolian moved her lips as she bowed to them to express her gratitude. Before leaving, she memorized the appearance of each of them clearly.

In the future, if she has the chance, she will definitely repay them.

The train ticket was for three days later. Shen Yunshu sent Huang Qiaolian back. Gu Jiuyan was worried about his wife and wanted to go with her, but he had no vacation time, so he had to give up.

Shen Yunshu and Shen's mother were busy arranging the things that Huang Qiaolian would take with her when she left.

The quilts, mattresses, pots, pans, and other things were all in the courtyard before Shen Yunshu came. Huang Qiaolian can just take them and use them. The package contains a few sets of clothes and some food. These were all bought by Shen Yunshu and Huang Qiaolian at the department store.

When buying things, Huang Qiaolian secretly memorized the prices of those things, knowing that she would have to pay back the money she spent in the future.

The three days passed quickly.

Before leaving, Shen's mother stuffed three big unity notes into Huang Qiaolian's hand: "Girl, don't think about what happened before. We have to look forward. If you encounter any problems, write to us. Don't forget your home address."

Huang Qiaolian looked reluctantly: "Aunt Chen, I understand, please take care of yourselves."

After waving to everyone, Shen Yunshu took Huang Qiaolian on the train back to Anshi.

In the car, Huang Qiaolian was well-behaved. Except for going to the toilet and eating, she sat on her bunk for the rest of the time.

It was not until the train stopped at the station that Huang Qiaolian and Shen Yunshu, who was carrying luggage, got off the train.

At the station entrance were Wang Ernao and Chen Fengying, who had been waiting for a long time.

When Chen Fengying learned that Shen Yunshu was taking the train today, she shamelessly followed him.

"Uncle Erno, Auntie."

"You naughty girl, you're finally back. Your auntie almost missed you to death."

"I miss my aunt too." After Shen Yunshu finished speaking, he quickly introduced Huang Qiaolian beside him to the two of them.

After Shen Yunshu called, Du Shouquan told the team members about Huang Qiaolian's situation. However, when they saw Huang Qiaolian's empty arm with their own eyes, Chen Fengying and Wang Ernao still had a flash of heartache in their eyes.

He is such a beast that he can do such a thing to such a young child.

Chen Fengying, who had recovered from her shock, said, "You must be the little girl Huang. When you go back, follow your aunt and no one will dare to bully you."

"Thank you, Aunt Chen, and thank you, Uncle Erno." Huang Qiaolian felt the warmth of people's hearts again in her closed heart.

Afterwards, Shen Yunshu and the others rode the team's tractor back. When they arrived at the county, Shen Yunshu invited the three of them to dinner at a state-owned restaurant.

Each person gets a bowl of noodles with green vegetables and shredded pork.

After finishing the meal, we hurried to the Red Flag Brigade. It was already dark by then.

Everyone in the Red Flag Brigade knew that Shen Yunshu was coming back today, so after dinner, they were waiting at the entrance of the brigade early.
