Inner Thoughts Exposed: Reborn General's Farming Daughter Has a System

Sun Tiezhu looked at Xiao Jingran’s expression, and also stole glances at the quiet little one. He heard that kids could see ghosts and spirits.

He wondered whether Xiao Qingya could also see his mother. He really wanted to talk to his mother directly.

Xiao Jingran fell silent after he heard Qiu Mu’s words. Meanwhile, the little one tilted her head in surprise.

[Huh? I thought it was only the old woman who was plotting to drug me. That ugly uncle was also involved...]

Her little face was all scrunched up. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Upon hearing her inner thoughts, Xiao Jingran’s face darkened. Originally, it was just a guess that someone in the main family was also involved, perhaps tipping off the kidnappers about Xiao Qingya’s existence, but...

They even drugged his little sister?!

Qiu Mu witnessed the flash of anger in his eyes and was a little anxious, worried Xiao Jingran might direct his anger on her sons too.

[Jingran, I can tell you everything...] She muttered, waving her hand in front of him.

Xiao Jingran turned to her, his face was back to neutral, as if the flash of anger in his eyes had been a fleeting imagination.

"Auntie Sun, if you know more information, please tell us. The yamen is now currently investigating this matter. If we can capture the people who are involved, your sons will also be safe," he spoke frankly.

Qiu Mu clenched her fists, and then let out a breath, nodding.

Xiao Jingran didn’t forget to tell Sun Tiezhu the words his mother had uttered, and with the help of the pair of mother and son, he could finally grasp the situation.

[It wasn’t my husband who directly hurt me, but he must have told them I was aware of what they were doing. Hence, they targeted me.] Qiu Mu began.

As if sensing his mother’s uneasiness, Sun Tiezhu also looked tense. Xiao Qingya noticed this, and pursed her lips. She hoped she could learn to draw more talismans soon so that she could help people to be able to see ghosts.

Alas, certain talismans were more complicated than others, and she could only successfully draw two kinds of talismans lately.

"Can you tell me the characteristics of the person who had hurt you?" Xiao Jingran asked.

Sun Tiezhu stared unblinkingly at him. Ever since he had gotten that letter and knowing about his father’s unusual money source, he had suspected his mother’s death was related to his father.

He could only give small clues to the yamen officials and hadn’t dared to accuse his father directly—he kept the letter for himself because he didn’t know what was written there.

What if the content of the letter implicated his younger siblings?

[His face was covered by a mask. By accident, I saw half of his face when I was struggling. It was covered by scars.] Qiu Mu told him honestly.

Xiao Jingran reiterated Qiu Mu’s words to Sun Tiezhu.

[Someone whose face is destroyed? It reminds me of Liu Lei... but Han Tingxun said that he was spotted in another faraway location. Had he come back to take revenge?] Xiao Qingya was worried.

She should tell the Ling siblings to watch over the house more attentively later and report to them if any suspicious individual was spotted.

Xiao Jingran took a note of both what his little sister and Qiu Mu had said.

Upon hearing Xiao Jingran repeating his mother’s words, Sun Tiezhu fell silent. He tried to recall such a person by his father’s side.

After Sun Daniu received some money, he invited some of his friends to drink with him. Among these people, there didn’t seem to be anyone with scars.

"Mother... did Father plan all of this?" Sun Tiezhu asked, his fists clenched by his sides.

His father was really so selfish and ruthless to have done such a thing.

Qiu Mu couldn’t answer him. However, even without his mother’s explanation, he could already make a conclusion by himself.

If Sun Daniu hadn’t plotted to harm his own wife, how could he and the people behind him make such intricate schemes that even the people from yamen were left without any clue?

Even if Sun Daniu wasn’t directly involved, he had let these people harm his own wife, pretending ignorance.

On the other hand, it also meant that some officials at their Qingshan County might be involved in this human trafficking case.

"Brother Jingran, can you read a letter?" Sun Tiezhu suddenly asked.

Xiao Jingran nodded at him. "I can."

The teenager pulled something from his pocket, and then handed it over to Xiao Jingran. The paper was already crumpled a little, but the words written there were still readable.

"I was afraid Father would find the letter, so I brought it everywhere with me," Sun Tiezhu explained.

Xiao Jingra scanned the words on the letter carefully. Xiao Qingya tugged on his sleeve.

[I want to read too, I want to read. Eldest Brother, pick me up!] She held out her little arms at him, shaking them slightly.

With his lips curled up slightly, Xiao Jingran picked up his little sister, allowing her to sit on his shoulder. They both began to read the letter with full concentration.

Qiu Mu and Sun Tiezhu were only mildly surprised, but they didn’t think that Xiao Qingya could really read the letter. They thought she was merely curious about the words on the paper.

The more the siblings read the letter the unpleasant their expressions had become. The content was really outrageous.

"Brother Jingran, can you tell us what is written there?" Sun Tiezhu became anxious ever since he witnessed the expression on Xiao Jingran’s face.

It didn’t seem like good things were written there.

"It’s about all of your father’s deeds." Xiao Jingran was good tempered, and he didn’t crumple the paper out of anger.

Sun Tiezhu was taken aback. What kinds of things his father had done besides kidnapping kids and plotting his own wife’s murder?

"What else has he done?" He asked subconsciously, clenching his fists.
