After I was reborn, I was ruined, and the gods actually knelt down on the spot.

Chapter 29 There is no more sorrow than death

"Yue Rong, you, I thought you would never visit me again."

Shen Yuexi didn't know the truth, but when she saw Shen Yuerong bringing steamed buns to her again, her eyes suddenly turned red, and she gently grabbed Shen Yuerong's hand through the cell door with an moved expression.

Shen Yuerong glanced away, a flash of disgust flashing in her eyes.

She curled her lips slightly, it was so dirty.

"Sister, you have suffered so much, please eat the steamed buns quickly."

Shen Yuerong pretended to be enthusiastic as she spoke, pushing the bun over and taking her hand out.

Shen Yuexi nodded, took the steamed buns and didn't eat them in a hurry.

"Yue Rong, father and mother...are they okay?"

When Shen Yuexi asked this question, she was cautious and humble, as if even mentioning her parents was a sin and she was worried about making them unhappy.

"They are still the same." Shen Yuerong said casually.

There was a disgusting smell in the cell, and Shen Yuerong just wanted to leave as soon as possible.

"then you……"

Shen Yuexi wanted to ask Yuerong if she had done anything bad these days, but her eyes fell on the steamed buns she had sent, and she did not ask the question. A pleased smile appeared on her face, "Yuerong, you have really changed now. Seeing you like this makes me happy that my sacrifice was not in vain."

"If I...can't go back in the future, you have to take good care of your father, mother and brother. You can't just care about your own enjoyment, you know?"

Shen Yuerong's face wrinkled when she heard this, and her eyes were full of impatience.

She waved her hand casually, "I know, I know."

After she finished speaking, Shen Yuerong planned to find any excuse to leave. She would be smelling this lousy place if she stayed there for too long. It was so disgusting!

"Wait a minute..." Shen Yuexi reached out and grabbed the corner of her clothes.

Shen Yuerong frowned, and when she saw Shen Yuexi's dirty hands touching her exquisite skirt, there was even a flash of murderous intent in her eyes.

The next second, Shen Yuerong's face changed into a simple expression that was ignorant of the world, and she obediently tilted her head to look at Shen Yuexi.

"What's the matter, sister?"

"Yue Rong, you are really sensible." Shen Yuexi's eyes flashed with relief.

Then, she stretched out her hand to brush off her cuffs and took off a simple bracelet from her slender wrist.

"This was given to me by my parents before. It is my favorite bracelet. Now I give it to you."

The bracelet is not exquisite, it even looks a bit shabby and full of inferior quality.

But this is something Shen Yuexi has always treasured very much. Even if she is beaten and bruised, she will carefully protect the bracelet.

Seeing Yuerong slowly getting better, Shen Yuexi was willing to forgive her for what she had done before, and even gave her most precious things away.

Shen Yuerong's skin is fair and delicate. She doesn't look like a girl from a poor family at all, but more like a young lady from a rich family.

However, Shen Yuexi's hands were a little rough due to years of working, and they already had calluses.

When she touched Shen Yuerong's wrist, Shen Yuerong's expression was as if she had eaten a fly, and she quickly pulled her hand back.

"I still have to do something for my parents, so I can't delay it any longer."

Shen Yuexi's original intention was to express her feelings, and she had no intention of stopping Yuerong from leaving. After hearing this, she felt that her judgment was correct. Yuerong had really begun to change, and her efforts and sacrifices had not been in vain.

But what she didn't know was that as soon as Shen Yuerong came out of the prison, she took off the bracelet and threw it away with a look of disgust.

Then she took out her handkerchief and wiped her wrist repeatedly until her fair skin became faintly red, then she stopped.Inside the prison.

Shen Yuexi smiled lightly, but she couldn't let go of the raised corners of her lips.

Seeing the steamed buns brought by Shen Yuerong, she suppressed a smile and distributed the steamed buns to the people in the prison as usual. She only kept half of them and planned to eat them when she was hungry.

No one knew that the steamed buns had been drugged.

In the middle of the night, the prisoners who had eaten the steamed buns sent by Shen Yuerong developed poisons and died.

"Why, why is this..."

Shen Yuexi's face was pale, and her thin and dry body was shaking constantly.

She looked at the pile of straw. The corpses had begun to harden.

Among them was the injured child, and even...the old man who once persuaded her.

Several fresh lives passed away so quietly.

Shen Yuexi wanted to cry, but found that she couldn't cry at all. She opened her mouth, but her throat was dry and hoarse, as if it was blocked by something, and she couldn't make any sound.

It was clearly a silent scene, but the monks outside the light curtain could see a great sadness in it, and even they were speechless.

This probably means that there is no greater sorrow than death.

Even though Shen Yubai tried his best to harden his heart towards Shen Yuexi and thought about her fault for killing her parents, this scene still made him feel sad, as if his flesh and blood were being repeatedly stirred by a sharp knife.

The scene in the light curtain continues.

The other prisoners in the cell soon realized that these people died after eating the steamed buns served by Shen Yuexi, and the look in their eyes instantly changed.

Especially the bald group of people who already had a grudge against Shen Yuexi. After discovering this, they immediately came up with a sinister plan.

With so many prisoners dying in a short period of time in the prison, it was natural that the deaths could not be kept secret for long, and they were quickly reported to the county magistrate by the jailer.

"Nonsense! What did you do? You let so many people die suddenly under your noses!"

The county magistrate was a somewhat bloated man. When he heard that something like this happened within his jurisdiction, he became furious and slapped the table hard with his hand.

"Sir, please listen to me. Originally, my subordinates thought that this matter was an unsolved case and they would spend a lot of effort. However, Baldy Zhang has done meritorious service and has already caught the real culprit!"

The jailer fawningly reported to the magistrate.

A smile appeared on the fat face of the magistrate, and he raised his chin: "Oh? Bring me this person. I want to see what this bald man is capable of, so go and bring him here!"

Baldhead was quickly brought before the magistrate.

Changing from his arrogant attitude in prison, Baldy Zhang first offered flattering compliments, which made the county magistrate smile with a smile on his face, which was very satisfying.

"I have always been wise, and naturally I am deeply loved by the people. There is no doubt about this. Tell me how the prisoners in the prison died. If what you say is true, I will definitely reward you heavily."

The bald man's eyes were bright and he spoke quickly, "Sir, those prisoners were all killed by that Shen Yuexi!"

"Chen Yuexi?" The county magistrate frowned and thought for a moment. After being reminded by his subordinates, he finally remembered who Shen Yuexi was.

"Isn't that a little girl? How could she be so cruel?"

"Your Excellency, you don't know. Shen Yuexi first adulterated medicine and harmed people, and then killed the wealthy businessman Mr. Li. Only then was he imprisoned. What should be the fuss about someone with a criminal record doing such a thing."

The bald man lowered his voice slightly as he spoke, "What's more, this is what I saw with my own eyes. After she came in, she secretly collected the food used to poison rats in the prison. At first, Xiao Xiao didn't know her intention, so she didn't stop her. Who knew it would lead to such a tragedy..."
