It turned out that Shen Zhaoning was looking for a place to stay in another town. It didn't take long for her to find out that she had a baby. She was so damn prone to pregnancy!
However, being able to be a mother without getting married was not unacceptable, so she decisively chose to give birth to the child.
It was a very hard time. Women had a low status in this era and it was difficult to support themselves. She had to do all kinds of dirty work.
Later, after the child was weaned, she disguised herself as a man and came to Yuxiang Town. Others only regarded her as a miserable man whose wife had died.
Life will be much better after living as a man.
Wang Erniang looked at the two boys playing in the water by the river and said in agreement: "Okay! Go and find out the murderer! So that the villagers can feel at ease!"
Over the past few years, Shen Zhaoning has not only been a simple corpse collector, but also a part-time coroner in the yamen.
Because she always comes in handy in solving crimes, she is now a favorite in the eyes of the county magistrate, and all the young and old men in the town respect her very much.
Shen Tianci, who was playing in the water, raised his fair and delicate face and waved at Shen Zhaoning, calling sweetly: "Dad, come back soon!"
Shen Zhaoning made an 'OK' gesture, which was the agreed gesture between mother and son.
After returning to the county government office, she began to perform an autopsy on the foul-smelling corpse.
Her level of professionalism is better than that of decades-old widowers, and she also has many autopsy skills that are not available in this era. She can be called a genius in the comics world.
No one knows that she actually doesn't know how to do an autopsy at all, she only knows how to cut the body into pieces, which she learned while disposing of corpses in the apocalypse.
The reason why she was able to accurately find the clues and find the real murderer was because she was the golden finger of the waste system.
After the body-retrieving profession was upgraded, the system gained an additional function. During the autopsy, the deceased's memories before death could be seen.
The memory of the deceased before death must be about the murderer, so she can easily find some key clues to guide everyone to find the murderer.
The county magistrate originally wanted her to be a detective, but she insisted on being a widower and a hard-working corpse collector.
The county magistrate praised her for her diligence and professionalism, and he valued her more and more.
The autopsy lasted until the afternoon. During the process, Shen Zhaoning saw some scenes. The man was pushed into the river while drunk by a woman with a bruised face.
She recorded all the clues on paper and gave them to the police, then went home from get off work to take care of her Zai Zai.
Agent Li hugged her shoulders with admiration: "Brother, you are so fast! No criminal in our Yuxiang Town can escape without you!"
Shen Zhaoning pulled away Agent Li's hand without leaving a trace and ran away quickly: "Miuzan Miuzan, I have to go back to see my son. See you tomorrow!"
In a row of antique houses, Shen Tianci, who was full of milk, rushed out screaming.
He has beautiful red phoenix eyes, and his facial features are so delicate at only four years old, like a finely carved porcelain doll.
Shen Zhaoning did not hold his son, but raised his hands and said, "Wait a minute, I'll take a shower first."
The little guy obediently returned to Wang Erniang's house and returned with the meal left for her: "This is the meal that Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang left for you. It's still warm!"
The older one and the younger one returned to the shabby little home hand in hand. It was clean and warm inside, and a candle was extremely warm.
Shen Zhaoning came out after taking a shower, but still tied her chest and did not dare to relax.
Shen Tianci whispered: "Mom, when can I stop calling you dad?"
Shen Zhaoning glanced at the closed door, lowered his voice and responded in a low voice: "Isn't it nice to call me daddy? Anyway, I am both a daddy and a mommy. What's the difference?"
Shen Tianci, who is as fair as a dumpling, pouted with an aggrieved look on his face: "But I want to have a real father. Is my father really dead?"
Thinking of the stunning 'corpse', Shen Zhaoning put down the bowl and coughed twice in embarrassment.
"Of course he's dead, otherwise wouldn't mother have to work so hard to take care of you all by herself? Be good, we don't want dad."
In fact, little ones rarely want a father, but children are children after all. If they have obsessions in their hearts, they will also envy others who have a father.
Shen Zhaoning couldn't bear it and finally made a decision: "Let's do this. After this year is over, when mother saves enough money, she will take you to a different place to live, and then find you a father."
At worst, it would be nice to find an honest and reliable man and live an ordinary life.
But the little guy thought that Shen Zhaoning wanted to take him to find his biological father, so he stamped his feet happily: "Okay, okay! Let's hook up!"
Shen Zhaoning smiled helplessly and hooked up with his son. Looking at the increasingly beautiful little face, he followed his father.
It’s really hard to fool a random man, the little guy is so smart! Otherwise, he wouldn't have always refused to believe that his father was dead.
At night, the little guy fell asleep.
Shen Zhaoning got up dressed and took some silver to the next door.
At this time, Erniang Wang came back from washing clothes. Her husband was bedridden and had a hard time, and she still had children to raise.
Now the two families live together. Shen Zhaoning will send some living expenses every month, which is used as money for daily meals and childcare.
At first, Wang Erniang's family resisted, but later they gradually accepted it more often.
Wang Erniang was very touched every time. She couldn't express her gratitude, but her eyes were filled with tears.
Shen Zhaoning couldn't comfort her casually. She was a man now and it was hard for her to have close contact with women.
He just said from a distance: "The county magistrate's family is short of a cook. I recommended you to go to work. You can go tomorrow. It will be much easier than the job you are doing now."
Finally, Erniang Wang couldn't hold back and cried: "Brother Shen, thank you so much! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know how I would live my life!"
In the room, Brother Wang, who was lying in bed, also said: "Brother Shen! Thank you!"
Shen Zhaoning smiled slightly and returned to her home. Although she had paid great attention to it, she still attracted gossip.
Some old women like to gossip and gossip, saying that Erniang Wang is not honest with her and that Brother Wang is useless and relies on his wife to serve other men.
She had scolded those old ladies about this matter, but they still kept silent about it behind their backs, so she could only pay more attention.
The murderer was brought to justice the next day, and she was the victim's wife. The man had been drinking and doing domestic violence all year round. The woman and children were beaten every day and had not enough to eat, and they were all injured and emaciated.
A few days ago, the man drank too much and hit the woman. He also threatened to throw her into the river and drown her. When the two pushed her, the woman accidentally pushed the man into the river.
Shen Zhaoning witnessed the trial process at the scene, and her heart stopped. She had seen too many women's misfortune in this era.
And she is powerless to change the fate of others.
But what was surprising was that after the county magistrate understood all the circumstances, he didn't follow the rules.
He clapped his hands and said, "Prisoner Liu, I missed you temporarily. There are still children at home who are crying for food. I will spare you at my discretion. When the children are older, I will serve another three years in exile. Do you have any objections?"
Everyone was surprised by the magnanimity and kindness of the county magistrate, and Mrs. Liu was even more grateful and cried bitterly.
Only Shen Zhaoning smiled and said nothing. There are not many kind and honest officials these days, especially such honest officials who can listen to suggestions.
After leaving the hall, the county magistrate Zhang Qingzhi walked with her. The forty-year-old brother and the nineteen-year-old brother got along naturally.
"Brother Shen, do you want to go to a better place to develop? I will go to Kyoto to take up a post next year. Are you willing to go with me?"
Kyoto? She escaped from that place in the first place, but she didn't dare to go back!
