Chapter 8 Accusing You of Human Trafficking (2/2)



After saying that, she slapped the cotton candy out of Xiaobao's hand and pulled him away.

Xiao Bao's eyes instantly reddened when he saw the cotton candy on the ground. He forcefully pushed away the nanny's hand and leaned against Su Ruojin's back.

Su Ruojin could clearly feel Xiao Bao's body trembling slightly; the child was obviously afraid of the nanny in front of him.

Su Ruojin gently squeezed Xiaobao's hand, indicating that he didn't need to be nervous.

She stepped forward, blocking the way between the nanny and Xiaobao, her tone tinged with anger: "Who are you?"

Only then did Granny Li notice Su Ruojin.

She carefully examined Su Ruojin. The young girl had her hair styled in a flying cloud bun, wore a pale yellow silk skirt, and a soft silver light silk jacket with floral patterns. She was clearly an unmarried woman.

With a small face the size of a palm and a pair of bright almond-shaped eyes, she looked radiant and elegant, and the clothes she wore did not resemble those of an ordinary girl from a commoner's family.

Even though Granny Li had seen countless daughters of noble families in the capital, she had to admit that this young girl was slightly better in terms of both appearance and demeanor.

However beautiful she may be, she's still just someone from a small place like Yan Yang. How can she compare to people from the capital? She's nothing special.

Blocked by Su Ruojin, Li Mama couldn't pull Xiaobao away and was displeased. She glared at him and said, "This young lady, this is our young master. You'd better hand him over to me right now, or I'll report you to the authorities for child trafficking. You'll be in big trouble then."

Su Ruojin looked coldly at Granny Li, her eyes indifferent: "Whatever." She pulled Xiaobao and walked around Granny Li to leave.

In the capital, not only ordinary officials, but even princes would give Li Mama some face. She had never been treated like this before.

He grabbed Su Ruojin's hand and used a strong grip: "Little girl, I advise you to obediently hand over your child to me. Don't be stubborn and refuse to listen to reason. Once my master takes action, your whole family will suffer. Don't blame me for not warning you."

If it weren't for the master's instructions not to reveal the young master's identity, Granny Li felt she wouldn't have to put up with this. If she had just mentioned the master's name, the girl would have been so frightened that she would have burst into tears and immediately knelt down to kowtow and admit her mistake.

"How can you prove you are the child's family member? What is his name? Where does he live?" Su Ruojin had already realized that Xiao Bao had an extraordinary background, and the other party obviously dared not reveal the child's identity casually.

“He is…” Granny Li was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say. If she dared to reveal the young master’s identity in public, she would probably be kicked out of the manor when she returned.

"How could a lowly commoner like you know the name of our young master? Hand the child over to me now." Granny Li tightened her grip.

Su Ruojin looked at her arm, which was being held by Granny Li, and said coldly, "Let go."

Not only did Granny Li not let go, but she also used her other hand to hold Su Ruojin tightly, and secretly pinched the flesh on Su Ruojin's arm hard.

court death!

Su Ruojin suddenly remembered that when she gave Xiaobao acupuncture before, she saw some bruises on his body.

At the time, she thought that Xiao Bao might have accidentally bumped into something, but now that Li Mama had pinched her like that, she realized that the bruises looked more like they had been pinched.

Xiao Bao has a mental disability and can't speak. He's also very young, so it's not impossible that he's being secretly bullied by the evil servants.

Thinking of this, Su Ruojin's eyes grew even colder, and she picked up a small porcelain bottle.

The contents of the porcelain bottle won't kill you; they'll just keep you in the latrine for seven days.

"Let her go!"

At that moment, a middle-aged man's voice came from inside.

Su Ruojin looked in the direction of the sound and saw a middle-aged man who looked like a butler hurrying towards them.

"Granny Li, let go of her hand right now!" Steward Zhang shouted.

Granny Li clearly didn't dare offend Steward Zhang. She reluctantly released her grip and pointed at Su Ruojin with a look of resentment, saying, "Steward Zhang, it was this old servant who found the young mistress first. This little girl is trying to kidnap the young mistress. You should have someone arrest her immediately."

Her master had promised a reward of five thousand taels of silver to whoever found the young master first, and she couldn't possibly give up that credit.

Steward Zhang quickly walked up to Su Ruojin and bowed: "Miss, I am the steward of this manor. Thank you for taking care of my young master. May we take him back?"
