Chapter 229 Are you serious?
Xia Wanniang had prepared herself mentally, but was still shocked by the scene inside.
Xiao Chiye also took a deep breath, unable to imagine what they had been through.
Xu Li looked at the expressions of the two and said slowly, "They were subjected to inhumane abuse before. Do you really have a solution?"
Xia Wanniang didn't dare to say that there was a solution now. Not only did they have mental problems, but their bodies were also in tatters and covered with all kinds of scars.
Just by looking at the wounds exposed outside the clothes, she saw the criss-crossing burns, knife wounds, etc., so how shocking would the wounds under these clothes be?
She exited the room and took a few deep breaths.
Xiao Chiye walked behind her, put a hand on her shoulder, and gently tightened it.
Xia Wanniang knew that he was comforting her, so she turned to look at her and said, "It's okay."
Xu Li closed the door of the room, lifted his robe and sat on the steps at the door: "What should I do now?"
Xia Wanniang pulled Xiao Chiye to sit next to him: "I didn't expect the situation to be so bad."
Xiao Chiye: "Have Shopkeeper Hong and the others seen it?"
Xu Li nodded: "Manager Hong and the others all gasped when they saw it. They helped to treat the external injuries, but they couldn't help with the problem in the brain."
Xia Wanniang felt a little headache. She gave them amnesia drugs. If their mental state recovered, how would they deal with it when they saw the injuries on their bodies?
Xiao Chiye also considered this question: "Why not keep it as it is?"
Xu Li also agreed with Xiao Chiye's statement: "Shopkeeper Hong said that there is something seriously wrong with their health and they may not live long."
Xia Wanniang looked at the other rooms in the yard. There were people inside, but they didn't dare to come out easily and hid at the back to peek.
"It costs a lot of money to support them. Do you have enough money?"
Xu Li nodded: "There are still a lot of things that have not been dealt with. They don't have much money to spend now. At most, I will hire a few people to take care of their daily lives."
Xia Wanniang looked at the room opposite: "Are the remaining people in there?"
Xu Li looked at the place she mentioned and said, "Yes. Several seriously injured ones died last night. Some are still recovering in the rooms inside. Manager Hong and his men come to check on them every day."
Xia Wanniang stood up and said, "I'll go take a look. You guys wait here for me."
Xiao Chiye: "Don't you want us to go with you?"
Xia Wanniang shook her head: "They may be more afraid of men now."
Xu Li was stunned for a moment, then looked at Xiao Chiye and nodded: "She is right."
Xia Wanniang came to the door of a room, and before she walked in, she heard hurried footsteps from inside, as if someone was quickly looking for a place to hide.
She pushed open the door and saw rows of beds placed on the floor in the room.
There was a person lying on each of them, shivering under the quilt, as if they were afraid of being discovered.
Seeing the furnishings inside, she felt a little impressed by Xu Li. She didn't know where he found so many beddings, but they did have a place to sleep.
Xia Wanniang found a place that was far away from them but where they could still see her.
The room is full of women, as can be seen from the occasional glimpse of their shoes.
She tried to soften her voice: "My name is Xia Wanniang, and my husband's surname is Xiao. You can call me Madam Xiao or Sister Xiao. I came here just to ask you if you are willing to forget the past."
The trembling bodies seemed to have stopped, but they still did not show up, and no one answered her question.
Xia Wanniang was not in a hurry and continued, "I can make you forget the past. You won't even remember your parents or anything in your past, if you want."
A woman lifted a corner of the quilt and looked carefully at the kind-looking Xia Wanniang, her voice timid: "You, are you telling the truth?"
Xia Wanniang looked at the woman who spoke. She had beautiful facial features and a pair of eyes as wet as a deer's: "Yeah."
