The police station was far from the prison, and the group followed Officer Chen for ten minutes before they arrived.
Wang Jingyi carried Siya on her back, her forehead beaded with sweat, and her lips pressed tightly together from the effort.
Seeing this, Su Yue quickly grabbed Wang Jingyi's arm: "Godmother, let me carry Siya on my back."
Wang Jingyi said in a weak voice, "How could you carry a child on your back? Don't you know your own condition?"
Su Yue is pregnant, and it's her first child, so she has to be careful in everything she does. What if something happens to the baby if she carries Si Ya on her back?
She would rather endure hardship herself than let Su Yue carry the burden.
At most, I'll just need to stay in bed for a few days after I get home at night.
Police Officer Chen, who was walking ahead, noticed that they hadn't kept up and overheard their conversation, which made him feel somewhat embarrassed.
The prison is half an hour away. Although he took a shortcut, he didn't take into account the limited physical strength of the female comrades.
This reminded him of his last blind date, when the other person angrily said, "You walk the whole life yourself, you can walk so much, you don't even consider that women can't keep up."
He quickly turned back, his tone apologetic: "Let me carry you."
Suddenly, Siya found herself in the arms of a tall man. Looking down at her older sisters, she felt that they had become much smaller.
She had never been lifted up by such a tall person before, and Qiao Honghai had never lifted her up or anything like that. It was the first time she had stood so high, and she felt very curious.
Wang Jingyi thought she would cry and make a fuss, but to her surprise, the little girl looked down at her three older sisters and smiled.
Su Yue helped Wang Jingyi follow slowly behind. When Chen Gongan turned around and saw Wang Jingyi holding her waist, he quickly slowed down.
Upon arrival at their destination, Officer Chen arranged for Su Yue and the others to wait in the rest area before hurriedly leaving.
About half an hour later, Pan Danu slowly pushed open the door and walked in.
As soon as Da Ya and the others saw their mother, they ran over and hugged her legs tightly.
Pan Daniu's eyes reddened, tears welling up. With trembling hands, she gently stroked the children's heads, her voice soft and hoarse: "You all go play over there first. I have something to say to Aunt Wang and the others."
Daya nodded understandingly and pulled her younger sisters aside.
The next second, Pan Daniu suddenly knelt down in front of Wang Jingyi and Su Yue with a "thump".
Wang Jingyi frowned, enduring the throbbing pain in her lower back, and quickly bent down to help her: "What are you doing? There are several children watching here, let's talk this out!"
Su Yue quickly stepped forward to dissuade him, saying, "Yes, Da Ya and the others are watching. If you kneel like that, the child will feel terrible."
Pan Daniu raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her face, her voice choked with emotion: "Thank you! If it weren't for your help, Daya wouldn't have been able to deliver the letter to the county town by herself."
Police Officer Chen just found her and asked her about the letters, whether they were true. She answered that they were true and that someone could investigate Liu Yuzhen. She told Police Officer Chen how she obtained these two letters, as she and Qiao Honghai had been corresponding for a long time.
Upon hearing this, Officer Chen ordered his men to remove the shackles from her hands, allowing her to appear before the children with dignity.
Wang Jingyi looked at Pan Daniu, not knowing what to say. For a man, she had gotten herself into prison.
Seeing that Su Yue and Wang Jingyi remained silent, Pan Daniu said again, "You don't need to worry about me. I knew this would be the result when I did this."
Wang Jingyi sighed, her tone filled with disappointment: "Knowing this would happen, you still did it. Don't you think about those children? How will they live without you? You didn't come back last night. Your mother-in-law... Aunt Qiao heard that Qiao Honghai had an accident, so she took the key to the grain lock and left. She didn't come back all night, and the children went hungry all night."
Upon hearing this, Pan Daniu looked abruptly at Daya and the others, her eyes filled with guilt and heartache.
She had already experienced Old Lady Qiao's ruthlessness firsthand.
Daya noticed her mother's gaze and heard Aunt Wang's words. She stepped forward, gently took her mother's hand, and her voice carried a hint of grievance.
"Mom, my sisters and I cooked some mushrooms we picked from the mountain yesterday at noon, but it was without oil or salt, and it didn't taste as good as Mom's cooking at all..."
