"Don't be afraid, brother will take you home." Brother Shen saw that the other children were timid and pitiful, staring at him with expectant eyes.
Facing so many pitiful and lovely children, Brother Shen assured them, "You too, I promise I will send you all home."
Yan Bao hugged Big Brother Shen and boasted proudly: [Big Brother is handsome and kind-hearted, you are all envious, right?]
Brother Shen rubbed Yan Bao's head lovingly, and rubbed the mud off his hands.
Then he looked at Yan Bao, who looked like a dirty bag, and wiped her clean with a handkerchief.
When Mrs. Shen rushed over after hearing the news, what she saw was Yan Bao asking the children one by one to introduce themselves where their homes were and who their families were, and registering them one by one so that they could be sent home safely.
Mrs. Shen looked at the lively Yan Bao and immediately ran over: "Yan Bao!"
Yan Bao turned around when she heard the sound and saw Madam Shen running towards her excitedly. She was stunned for a moment, then she pouted in grievance and rushed towards Madam Shen: [Mom, I missed you so much!]
"Yan Bao!" Madam Shen hugged Yan Bao tightly, wishing she could hold her in her arms so that no one could take her away.
Madam Shen's defense was broken, and she held Yan Bao tightly and refused to let go.
Yan Bao also hugged Madam Shen, as if afraid of losing her again.
In this way, the mother and daughter hugged each other for a long time. When people from Duke Qin's Mansion came, Mrs. Shen calmed down, wiped the tears from her face with a handkerchief, and wiped Yan Bao's tears.
Rui Ge'er looked at the woman coming towards him, his expression changed, and he hid behind Yan Bao.
She is half a head taller than Yan Bao, and her timid look makes people feel distressed.
Seeing this, Yan Bao held her head high and chest out, showing the demeanor of a big sister, staring at the noble woman who was approaching. The panic on her face did not seem to be acted.
Others don’t know, but Yan Bao knows that she is just acting.
The person who came was Rui Ge'er's stepmother. After his mother died, he married a new stepmother, who was a scheming woman.
Mrs. Shen didn't know what was going on at first, but after listening to Yan Bao's inner voice, she realized: "The bad woman is here. She must have known that Rui Ge'er was not missing, so she hurried to confirm. If she fails this time, she will harm Rui Ge'er a second time."
Madam Shen frowned: "The Duke's wife is here?"
"I heard that Rui Ge'er was found, so I came to pick him up. Thank you so much. The Duke's Mansion will definitely come to express our gratitude someday." Zhao was full of gratitude. She was six months pregnant and looked like she cared a lot about Rui Ge'er.
She smiled and said, "Brother Rui, come home with mother. Your grandmother fainted from worry and is waiting for you to come home!"
Rui Ge'er hid behind Yan Bao and looked at Brother Shen eagerly, hoping that he would not hand him over.
Yan Bao knows that she is small and useless, so she will take advantage of the situation!
Yan Bao looked at Brother Shen eagerly.
Elder Brother Shen, who had been entrusted with the important task, spoke up: "Don't worry, Madam Guogong. Rui'er has been frightened and doesn't trust anyone right now. Why don't you invite the Duke?"
Zhao frowned and questioned Brother Shen: "What does Master Shen mean?"
Brother Shen bowed and said, "I don't mean anything."
Zhao's face turned grim: "I'm his mother, don't you trust me?"
Rui Ge'er shook his head.
Brother Shen laughed and said, "The Duke's wife also saw it. She doesn't want to go with you."
"Did you...did you say anything to him? How could you encourage the child to be estranged from me, his mother?" Zhao was overwhelmed, clutching her stomach. "Oh my, is this how you, the Shen family, bully people?"
Big Brother Shen wasn't angry yet, but Yan Bao was furious: "That's too much!"
Madam Shen knew that facing such an unreasonable and unruly woman, Big Brother Shen would definitely not be able to cope with it. She stepped forward and said, "Madam, please don't be upset. I'm afraid you know better than us how Rui Ge'er was lost. He's not your biological child, so if he's lost, then he's lost, right?"
Zhao was stunned, and her guilty look could not be suppressed for a moment.
Madam Shen sneered: "For the position of the prince, you are really calculating. She has lost her mother, so does she still have a father?"
When the onlookers heard this and thought about Zhao's identity, they immediately knew what was going on.
"I didn't expect her to be this kind of person."
"That's right. She brought her stepson out even though she was pregnant. She did it on purpose, just to get rid of this child so that she could make room for the baby in her belly."
"How do you know it's a son when the baby isn't even born yet?"
"Who knows? Women are the most vicious. Poor little prince."
......
Without Mrs. Shen saying anything, everyone talked at once, explaining Zhao's calculations clearly and plainly. The look in everyone's eyes when they looked at Zhao was one of contempt, condemnation, and ridicule.
Zhao didn't expect that her plan would fail. She was furious and knew that she couldn't confront the problem head-on, so she could only hold her stomach and say that her stomach hurt. If anything happened to the baby in her belly, it would be the Shen family's fault.
Mrs. Shen laughed and said, “There must be something wrong with your stomach, otherwise I can’t take responsibility even if I want to.”
Madam Shen understood how to hurt someone: "Do you dare? If anything happens to the fetus, and you lose the fetus to protect you, do you think the Duke's Mansion will still tolerate a vicious stepmother like you who sold the young prince?"
Zhao: “…”
Yan Bao looked at the domineering Madam Shen with stars in his eyes: [Mother is mighty, mother is domineering, mother is so awesome! ]
Mrs. Shen: “…”
Brother Shen raised the corner of his mouth and looked at Madam Shen proudly. His mother was really amazing!
Amidst the laughter and chatter, people arrived from Duke Qin's mansion.
It was the Duke of Qin who came. When Rui Ge'er saw him, he felt as aggrieved as a child who had been starved for eight hundred meals, and cried out, "Dad!"
Duke Qin looked at his aggrieved, pitiful and embarrassed son, who had been lost and found again, and held him in his arms. For the first time, he showed his emotions. He thought that the child could never be found again.
