Chapter 864: Shen Qingchuo’s Daily Life
The homeless virgins found in the cellar of Benevolence Hall were sent to Virtue Home.
The virgins sent this time were all very young. The experience in the dark basement made them feel uneasy all day; unable to eat, sleep, and even a little movement would make them cry nonstop.
Most of the people in Virtue Home in charge of looking after children were kind-looking middle-aged women who were specially selected and hired by Gu Liufeng. Even so, there were still not enough staff here as the children increased.
Shen Qingchuo had been in this Virtue Home for several days. Even her uncle asked her to go back, she refused it.
She first came to Virtue Home because of some inexplicable reasons; she wanted to continue arguing with Gu Liufeng, and she wanted to see Gu Liufeng.
But after arriving here, getting along with those children every day, she slowly fell in love with this kind of life.
She just felt that if she couldn’t see these children every day, she felt there was a missing piece in her heart.
At this time, Shen Qingchuo was holding a young crying child, and she said softly, “Little Wan, be a good girl. Although your brother has passed away, he has not left yet! He is so worried about you, he must have become a soul and watch over you. You don’t eat well and sleep well, how sad he would be to see it!”
The girl named Little Wan had just been rescued from the cellar of the Benevolence Hall.
Although more than 30 children were rescued this time, before that, a group of children had been sent out by Chang Sheng and used as the nourishment for cold eating flower.
The brother of this little girl named Little Wan was one of them.
After being rescued, Xiaowan was seriously ill; she had a high fever. She kept crying “brother” in her mouth.
Shen Qingchuo felt distressed for this poor little girl, so she had been taking care of her restlessly days and nights.
Even though Little Wan still cried often, her dependence on Shen Qingchuo was a little more deep.
Hearing Shen Qingchuo’s words, Little Wan grabbed her sleeve and choked up, “Sister Xi, is what you said is true? My brother is really looking at me? Will my brother really feel sad?”
“Yeah!” Shen Qingchuo stroked the girl’s face, saying softly. “Little Wan’s brother likes Little Wan the most. Seeing that Little Wan is so sad and even sick, how can he be willing to leave?”
Xiao Wan was overjoyed at first. She turned her head vigorously to look around, then she immediately became worried, “But brother is a soul, and everyone can’t see him. Isn’t brother alone now?”
Miluo Continent assumed that people had souls after death, but even children knew that souls cannot stay in the world for a long time. They must enter reincarnate in the 6 realms of samsara. Otherwise, they would become wandering ghosts that would disappear in the end.
Shen Qingchuo nodded and said, “Yeah! Your brother stays because he is worried about Xiaowan. Only when Little Wan eats well and is not sad, your brother can only reincarnate at ease! Does Little Wan want brother become a wandering ghost?”
Xiaowan immediately burst into tears and shook her head vigorously with her mouth flat, “No! No! Little Wan wants brother to be good! From now on, Little Wan must eat and sleep well. Brother, you can go! Don’t worry about Little Wan anymore. Little Wan will be obedient!”
The little girl’s voice was hoarse and persistent, and Shen Qingchuo felt sore in her heart hearing that.
After Xiaowan finished speaking, she immediately picked up the spoon and stuffed the rice into her mouth.
Her mouth was too small and she stuffed too much the rice, so she could only chew with her cheeks bulging to try her best to eat it.
