After waiting for a while, Zhao Wu realized that it was completely quiet over there, with not a single sound left.

She also knew that she shouldn't stay, so she sighed softly and dragged her steps back to the bedroom like a zombie. When she walked in, she sat down and wanted to take a breath, but her unsatisfactory stomach reminded her that she hadn't eaten yet.

Helpless, Mrs. Zhao Wu had to get up and prepare to get the meal. As soon as she went out, she encountered Archie, who was hunched over and looking nervous.

After meeting like this, both of them were stunned for a moment.

Archie straightened up almost as a reflex, which made his brow twitch hard, as if it was painful.

But he didn't dare to show it, so he deliberately concealed something. He quickly looked away, not daring to look at Mrs. Zhao Wu, but asked: "...Auntie, why are you here?"

Seeing his reaction, Mrs. Zhao Wu felt a bad premonition in her heart. She took a few steps forward and first touched his forehead.

"You kid..."

Archie was evasive, still making up lies in his mouth, trying to get away with it just like yesterday.

But Zhao Wu already had the answer in her heart, and it was obviously impossible for Archie to continue to be so perfunctory. She grabbed Archie's hand forcefully and asked, "Where is it hurt? Are you being bullied again?"

Hearing this, Archie stopped struggling and didn't nod. He just remained silent as if he didn't know what to say.

Mrs. Zhao Wu pursed her lips and stopped asking. She checked up and down, inside and out.

She didn't know it, but after looking at it, Zhao Wu's lips trembled with anger. She looked at the bruises that had turned purple and felt completely distressed.

I hurriedly pulled the child back to apply the medicine, but it hurt even if he moved a little.

The grinning Archie, Zhao Wu only hated herself for being slow.

Why didn't she realize this earlier? She couldn't take care of herself as an adult. She couldn't even take care of children. Now that Archie was so seriously injured, Xiaoyuan still didn't know where she was. If she knew I will definitely blame her.

Zhao Wu gritted her teeth, knowing she couldn't bear it any longer. She treated Archi's wounds while persuading herself, thinking that the worst outcome would be to leave Su Mansion.

Just like Zhou Xiaoyuan once said to them, people must have backbone, and they cannot give someone else a slap on the other cheek after being slapped.

She has always been timid, but she couldn't bear to see her children suffer.

The current plan is to go find Xiaoyuan and think back to the time when the four of them lived together, didn't they have a good time? Why do you have to suffer like this?

Thinking of this, Zhao Wu's expression became firm. She finally bandaged Archie, then stood up and said, "You have a good rest first, and you don't care if anyone else calls you."

Archi seemed to have guessed something when he heard this. He opened his eyes slightly and pulled Zhao Wu nervously.

"But Auntie, didn't you say that it is better to do less than to do more?"

Zhao Wu was choked by Archie's frankness and thought angrily about how a child could be so eloquent. However, she was not angry either. She just touched Archie's head and said:

"It is true that one more thing is worse than one less thing, but now that we are being bullied like this, if we endure it any longer, your adoptive mother should say that I abused you."

When talking about Zhou Xiaoyuan, Zhao Wu still had hope.

Seeing this situation, Archie silently swallowed the worry in his mouth, and after a while he said in a dull voice: "That aunt

Auntie, be careful and try not to make Mrs. Su angry. I heard them say that Mrs. Su usually loses her temper..."

Archi said and shuddered unconsciously. Zhao Wu blinked and felt a little scared, but thinking of Archi's injuries, she plucked up her courage.

In turn, he comforted Archie and said, "It's okay. After all, we are not servants of the Su Mansion who have signed a contract of betrayal. Mrs. Su has no reason to hit me."

In fact, this is indeed the case if you think about it carefully.

Neither Zhao Wu nor Archi had signed a contract of sale, so why should they work for the Su family? After all, she hadn't even seen a single sign of their monthly salary in these days.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Zhao Wu felt confident again. She patted Archie, hesitated, and decided to take him with her.

When they walked all the way to the hall, Mrs. Zhao Wu remembered that Mrs. Su was a busy person, and it seemed that she shouldn't go in so directly.

But it would be too strange to go back now...

Mrs. Zhao Wu could only treat a dead horse as a living doctor, thinking what if the blind cat met a dead mouse, what if Mrs. Su was inside?

As the saying goes, a vigorous effort can be exhausted again and again. Zhao Wushi kept walking and walked straight over. He happened to be stopped by a guard. Archi didn't dare to speak and looked at Zhao Wushi involuntarily.

However, Zhao Wu was very calm at this time. She directly said that she came to Mrs. Su to talk about something.

In fact, Mrs. Zhao Wu was a little uneasy inside, but imitating Zhou Xiaoyuan's behavior always made her feel more at ease.

After all, people always like to pick on the weak. Seeing how confident Zhao Wu was with a child, the guard didn't know what he was thinking. After hesitating, he actually went over to report it.

Zhao Wushi

I felt happy, thinking that this trick really worked, and even Archie was a little surprised.

The two people, one large and one small, looked at each other and waited patiently.

On the other side, Mrs. Su was indeed still in the hall, but she was entertaining guests. She was smiling gently and unchangingly. She was talking to several ladies, but she didn't want her to go out for a trip. But when she came back, her expression was subtle, and she seemed to want to say something. What.

Mrs. Su was a little displeased and glanced at her. The nanny hesitated for a moment, then came over and said to the people waiting outside, "The one big and one young girl brought by Miss Zhou are waiting outside the door."

After saying this, Mrs. Su understood, but she didn't care much. She rolled her eyes and asked the guards to drive him away.

I didn't want to say this too loudly, but it immediately attracted the attention of several ladies nearby, who couldn't help but ask what was going on.

Adhering to the idea that "family scandals should not be made public", Mrs. Su naturally did not plan to say anything more. She just said with a calm expression: "It's just that the servant is not sensible and has done something wrong. It's nothing. Let's continue."

But often, such things that are hidden are more likely to make people gossip, so several ladies looked at each other.

Immediately, they began to boo without thinking it was a big deal.

What else was he saying? A servant should be a servant, and he should be punished if he is ignorant. How could he just ignore it so lightly?

Speaking of this, the ladies became excited again and happily gave Mrs. Su advice, whether it was torture or training. They were all cruel and not afraid of cruel methods. They just said that this kind of thing is the easiest to raise. Served.

If it were to be replaced by another servant, Madam Su would probably just accept the request, and maybe even communicate with them about the specific operating details.

It turned out that these ignorant servants were the two brought by Zhou Xiaoyuan, and Mrs. Su's expression was a little bad for a moment.
