After breakfast, Xi Shu and Wuniu returned to the village.
Huo Rui and a few others followed, but they sat in the car and didn't enter the village.
After Xi Shu returned, her mother and third sister rushed back from their aunt's house as well.
Sister Xi Shu and her two daughters also came along.
Seeing Xi Shu and Wuniu safe and sound, they sighed in relief.
"Where did you go? What about your aunt and the others?"
Mr. Xi Shu also asked, "And what about your Grandma and the others?"
Xi Shu looked at this weak woman and this honest but cowardly man, and all she could think of was the saying, "The pitiable ones must have a detestable side."
Countless times her softheartedness had been tortured away by these two.
She replied expressionlessly, "They committed a crime and were taken away by the authorities."
Both parents exclaimed, "What? How could this happen?"
