Chapter 2： go home

Chapter 2 Homecoming

After returning to the mansion, Si Yan got out of the carriage only after Guan Fu cleared away everyone around him.

Guan Fu looked at Si Yan's leg injury and couldn't bear it.

"General, there is no way for you to hold on like this. Why don't you find a doctor to treat it."

Si Yan didn't even blink his eyes, as if the bleeding leg wasn't his, and his tone was calm.

"That's not what it's supposed to be."

Guan Fu wanted the general's plan, so he couldn't help but shut his mouth. He glanced at the carriage from the corner of his eye, and when he thought of the person on it, he felt worried again.

"General, how will the girl arrange it?"

Guan Fu had been with Si Yan since he was a recruit, and he knew about him 70% to 80% of his affairs, not to mention everything about him.

In the early years when Shendu Yushi was alive, he had taken care of Si Yan. It stands to reason that they should take care of the benefactor's daughter.

But even he knew that Shen Yudushi's daughter was dumb, so could this girl be a fake?

But after thinking about it carefully, I felt that it was not such a coincidence. When I returned to Beijing this time, there were only a few people who knew about it, and they came back by deliberately taking a path. If this girl was sent by the other party, how could she appear so accurately.

Si Yan followed his concerns. He stood there with his hands behind his back for two seconds, and then spoke.

"Put her in a dungeon. You should investigate her matter yourself. If you have any doubts, you will be shot to death."

Guan Fu nodded, "Listen to the order."

…

The next morning, listening to the noise outside, Shen Li opened his eyes in a daze, and got up from the cold and wet ground.

She huddled in the corner of the wall, watching the figure approach step by step.

Shen Li felt a little uneasy. It stands to reason that she is Shen Li herself, and she is not afraid of that man investigating her.

But when Shen Li thought of that man, especially his eyes that seemed to see through everything, she felt terrified all over.

Not long after, the iron chain of the prison door was opened, and after one night, Shen Li met Si Yan again.

Si Yan's face was indifferent, he only glanced around Shen Li lightly, and then gave orders to Guan Fu behind him.

"Send her to the place where the accident happened yesterday."

When Shen Li heard that she was able to go, she didn't feel hungry anymore. She squeezed out a smile and said respectfully.

"Thank you, my lord."

Shen Li got up quickly, and was about to go out as she said, but when she passed by Si Yan, she was suddenly blocked by the sword in Si Yan's hand.

Shen Li slowly turned her neck and looked at the man who was close to her. Although she was greeting the eighteenth generation of his ancestors in her heart, she still had an obedient look on her face. She blinked and asked.

"My lord... what's wrong?"

Si Yan looked down at her, and the words he said were extremely threatening.

"Go out today and forget about everything here, can you do it?"

Shen Li breathed a sigh of relief, thinking it was something, she nodded without hesitation.

"Yes, yes, I promise."

Shen Li was afraid that he would not believe it, so she even raised her finger to swear to the sky.

"I promise I won't say a word after I go out, and I will definitely take a detour wherever the lord shows up in the future. The little girl will never forget the lord's life-saving grace."

Seeing her loyal appearance, Si Yan twitched the corner of his mouth, looked at her suspiciously for two seconds, and waved his hands impatiently.

I don't know how someone like Shen Hai can teach such a glib daughter.

It didn't take long for Shen Li to return to the mountain road yesterday. At this time, it was not yet bright, and there was a thin mist outside, and a few stars were vaguely seen, as if someone was holding a torch to find someone.

Shen Li's heart skipped a beat, but she wasn't sure if these people were her family or the gangsters from yesterday.

Guan Fu is already urging people to get off the car.

Shen Li sat firmly, and asked timidly.

"Who are the people over there? It can't be the gang from yesterday..."

Before he finished speaking, Guan Fu seemed to see through her thoughts, shook his head and said.

"Impossible, those grandchildren were taken care of badly yesterday, and they won't come out to play soon."

Shen Li blinked her eyes, and understood in her heart that it sounds like they not only know each other, but maybe they have some relationship.

But this is not something Shen Li can inquire about, the less you know about some things, the better.

She jumped out of the carriage nimbly, thanked Guan Fu, and walked into the fog in front of her.

Shen Li approached the crowd on tiptoe, and saw the face that overlapped with the memory at a glance.

If I remember correctly, it should be her stepmother. Shen Li's biological mother died early, and his father remarried, so he chose the well-known Zhong family.

It was originally a good relationship, but it was a pity that her father had just married someone into the house, and before the bridal chamber, he went to the border due to urgent orders, and never came back after leaving.

The Holy Majesty thought of Shen's father's merits and granted him the posthumous Anding Bo. However, the Shen family only had one daughter, so she couldn't enter the court as an official, and the title was just an embroidered pillow with a name in vain.

Although she had no father or mother, in Shen Li's memory, this stepmother treated her well, and the two of them lived in seclusion, and their days were comfortable.

Shen Li brewed his emotions, and almost rushed over, crying out in tears.

"Mom!"

Zhong Ning spent the whole night looking for someone in this place, his face was pale with exhaustion, and after hearing the sound of "Mother", he thought he had an auditory hallucination.

She turned around slowly, was stunned for two seconds, and then embraced Shen Li who was running over.

Zhong Ning raised his hand tremblingly and touched Shen Li's cheek, the shock on his face was still there.

"You...can you make a sound?"

Shen Li looked at Zhong Ning at a close distance, and suddenly felt that the "mother" just now was a bit hot.

The stepmother looked like a little girl with collagen on her face, and she was not much older than her.

But now that the words have been spoken, Shen Li can only bite the bullet and continue.

"When I was escaping, I accidentally rolled down the mountain and fell into a coma all night. I was able to talk when I woke up this morning. Mother, do you think this is a blessing in disguise?"

Zhong Ning held Shen Li's hand, his lips trembled twice, nodded heavily, and murmured.

"Just come back, just come back."

At this time, the people around had already noticed the movement here, and they all surrounded him.

After seeing Shen Li, Jin Changqing had a complicated expression, hesitated for two seconds and walked over.

"Li'er, are you okay?"

Looking at the handsome man in front of him, Shen Li sneered in her heart, but now she is concerned, why did she run so fast yesterday.

But before she could find a chance to speak, Jin Changqing was blocked by a woman.

Shen Li glanced over, and saw the woman glanced at her with disgust, and at the same time pulled Jin Changqing back a step, covering her mouth and nose with a handkerchief.

"Okay, the person has been found, let's go back quickly."

Shen Li didn't have a deep impression of her, and didn't remember her name for a while, but looking at the situation, she knew that she was Jin Changqing's mother, her original mother-in-law.

When someone is found, naturally she shouldn't stay in this wilderness. Although Zhong Ning is reluctant to give up on Shen Li, she thinks that Shen Li is married, so she should be a member of the Jin family. Of course, she should go with the Jin family.

But when she was sending Shen Li to the Jin family's carriage, she was suddenly stopped by Jin's mother.
