Chapter 557 - The Ke Family’s Mansion, Baima Street

Hu Jiumei was completely dumbfounded and sat paralyzed on the ground. She didn’t make a sound at all.

Bai Zhi asked again: “Do you remember where your home is?”

Xian’er said: “I heard my brother say that our family lives on Baima Street, and the whole street is just ours.”

Bai Zhi asked the Officer: “Have you heard of Baima Street?”

The Officer shook his head: “I haven’t heard of it, it should not be from Qingyuan Town.”

Bai Zhi asked Xian’er: “Is Baima street from the capital?”

Xian’er asked: “What is capital?”

The clue was broken here. After all, it was only a child, and most likely a child from a big family. She’s afraid that she never been outside the house. It can be said that this Baima street was peaceful.

Bai Zhichao said: “You still try asking Hu Jiumei, she may know.”

Hu Jiumei didn’t wait to be interrogated by the Officer, she quickly shook her head and said: “I don’t know, I really don’t know where she came from. I picked her up outside the town. She was almost dying at that time. If I didn’t pick her up, she would have been dead by now.”

The Officer sneered: “Since you are doing good deeds, why didn’t you send her to the government office? Instead, you brought her to your house, beat her at your will, and use her to cheat people here and there. What do you think of those crimes?”

Hu Jiumei completely withered, what else can she say in front of those facts?

“Take her away!” The Officer waved his hand.

Hu Jiumei was taken away, but what about the child? The Officer fell in thoughts.

Bai Zhi smiled and said, “Let her stay with me first. There is a child of the same age as her that lives in our house. You don’t have to worry about her food and clothes. I will write a letter to Meng Gongzi and ask him to check it out. It must be not difficult for him to check it out.”

The Officer naturally has no opinion. It will be troublesome to bring the child to the Yamen. The big men in there don’t know how to take care of a child.

After the Officer left, Bai Zhi said to Zhao Sue: “You take care of her first. Let her eat whatever we have here. I will go to Boss Chen.”

Xian’er tightly grabbed Bai Zhi’s clothes, she refused to let her go.

Bai Zhi patted her little hand and said warmly: “Xian’er, I’ll light up some charcoal first, then buy you delicious food. I’ll be back right away.”

Hearing that there will be delicious food, Xian’er, who was already hungry, let her go: “Then, come back quickly. I’m scared.”

Zhao Sue smiled: “You don’t need to be scared, Xian’er. I’ll bring you a clean and beautiful doll.”

There will be food and toy, so Xian’er finally felt relieved.

Bai Zhi went straight to the diners’ residence. Boss Chen was there, she told him the whole story. Boss Chen smiled and said: “If you write the letter, he will read it soon. But if I wrote the letter, I don’t know when he will read it.”

Bai Zhi had no choice but to write, and then Boss Chen asked someone to send it out the same day.

The weather was too cold, Bai Zhi was afraid that Xian’er was freezing. She gave her a cotton-padded jacket to Xian’er. It was too cold, so she closed the shop and then went home with Zhao Sue and Xian’er.

Ru’er was just playing at home the whole day. When she saw someone with the same age as her, she was very happy. She shared all the snacks that she hide with her.

Xian’er, who has been away from home for more than a month, was happy for the first time. There were warm clothes to wear, delicious food, and a playmate. Everyone cares about her.

She wants to go home every day, except today.

She felt as if she had returned home.

She even felt that this place was better and warmer than her home.
