Abandoned Woman Busy Farming-Chapter 1689: Do You Have Children?

Jiang Yichun, holding his son, smiled at her and said, "As long as you and our son are safe, it’s all good. Leave the search for that person to me, don’t worry yourself too much."

Bai Ruozhu sniffed, nodded, and said, "Hmm, I’ll take care of Dengdeng."

As she spoke, her voice choked, and she couldn’t help but burst into tears.

She wasn’t usually such a fragile person, but being pregnant now made her emotions more volatile. Plus, they had been in such danger just now. If the person hadn’t kept Dengdeng for some purpose and had instead intended to kill him, she couldn’t even imagine the consequences.

Thinking of these things, Bai Ruozhu shivered uncontrollably, especially knowing that Jiang Yichun and the dark guard had risked danger to save her, giving others a chance to take Dengdeng. Her heart was filled with guilt.

"Let’s let our son sleep for a while to avoid scaring him," Jiang Yichun said while holding his son.

Bai Ruozhu caressed her son’s small face and nodded lightly, "Let’s leave here in the morning. We still don’t know if there are others behind Nianrong."

"Alright." Jiang Yichun’s voice was as cheerful as he could make it. He didn’t want his woman to worry too much, but there was undeniable concern in his gaze.

The two of them carried the child back to the Main Hall, and when Jianqi and the others learned that Little Dengdeng was alright, they all breathed a huge sigh of relief. The shopkeeper of the Inn and the disguised waiter also exhaled deeply. Luckily the child was fine, or else they would’ve been in big trouble.

"It’s all good, it’s all good," the shopkeeper said with a forced smile, then asked, "So, sir, do you think there’s a need to report this to the officers?"

"It’s the New Year, forget it," Jiang Yichun murmured. The County Government Office’s officers combined weren’t as powerful as the military force he had brought. What use was reporting it?

"That useless person didn’t kill that little bastard, what a pathetic waste!" Nianrong’s voice inappropriately interjected, drawing all hatred towards her instantly.

Jiang Yichun, holding his son, couldn’t act, but Bai Ruozhu rushed over instinctively, drew out a Dagger, and slashed it across her face.

"Shut your filthy mouth! My son is none of your business to criticize. Didn’t you want to feel the pain of being cut into pieces? Let’s proceed." Saying so, she stabbed a knife into Nianrong’s shoulder, fiercely gouging out a piece of flesh.

The Main Hall was filled with Nianrong’s screams of agony and the scent of her blood. The shopkeeper and the waiter were so terrified their legs began to tremble.

But neither dared say a word, not wanting to provoke the Bai couple, and knowing the female assassin deserved it. There’s a rule in the River Jiang not to harm one’s family. Yet this person’s hatred extended even to a two-year-old child, how wicked!

The ruckus already alerted many in the Inn, and now Nianrong’s screams drew even more onlookers. Some people looked and hurried back to their rooms, shutting the doors tight, while others snuck a few more looks. Some even wanted to check out, but in the middle of the night, where would they go?

Just then, a chess piece flew down from the second floor, striking Bai Ruozhu on the wrist, causing her to drop her Dagger to the ground.

"Ruozhu, watch out!" Jiang Yichun quickly rushed to her side, and Jianqi, along with others, also moved to protect her.

Bai Ruozhu glanced quickly at Nianrong, whose reaction suggested whoever intervened wasn’t there to rescue her.

Soon after, a man and a woman appeared on the stairs. The man was the middle-aged fellow who recently had a conflict with Bai Ruozhu and her group, and the woman with him called him Fen Jiu.

Bai Ruozhu found his name peculiar; it sounded like a woman’s. The woman was called Lingdang, which also sounded rather strange.

"During the New Year, can’t people have some peace?" Fen Jiu shouted in a low voice.

Standing beside him, Lingdang looked at Bai Ruozhu, her hands covered in blood, with disappointment in her eyes, and said, "I thought you were anxious for your child, but now that the child is found, why do something so cruel? When the child wakes up and sees his mother like this, won’t he be disappointed?"

Confronted by the woman’s gaze, Bai Ruozhu was somehow inexplicably annoyed. She stood up from the floor, staring at her, and asked, "Senior, do you have children? If your child was taken and that person cursed him and wondered why they hadn’t killed him yet, could you still feel soft-hearted? Could you still swallow that anger? If Senior could really do that, I can only say Senior isn’t a good mother!"

Bai Ruozhu really shouldn’t provoke these two at this moment, but she was so angry and couldn’t hold it in. freёwebnoѵel.com

The woman’s face showed a sad expression as she stood there, lost in thought about something. Meanwhile, Fen Jiu beside her, seeing this, released a palm wind toward Bai Ruozhu in a fit of rage.

"Shut your filthy mouth!"

Jiang Yichun held the child with one hand and countered the inner strength with the other, heard a "poof," and spat out a mouthful of blood.

The woman snapped back to reality, seeing Jiang Yichun spitting blood, an apologetic look flashed through her eyes.

She tugged at Fen Jiu’s sleeve, reproachingly saying, "How many times have I told you not to act without provocation? If you keep this up, I’m going home."

Fen Jiu’s cold face immediately softened into a smile, "Alright, alright, I promise not to act lightly in the future, is that okay?"

His attitude was such a stark contrast from before, it left everyone dumbfounded, and when they realized, they understood he was a typical hen-pecked husband.

The woman looked at Bai Ruozhu and said, "I spoke out of turn. I didn’t mean you harm; take this medicine as an apology."

She tossed a medicine bottle toward Bai Ruozhu. Bai Ruozhu caught it without looking at it, threw it back, and said coldly, "Thank you for your generosity, Senior, but it’s unnecessary. We have our own medicine."

This person attacks and kills at will, and then offers a bit of medicine as charity. Are you supposed to accept it with gratitude?

"Don’t be ungrateful!" Fen Jiu was about to get angry again, but the woman beside him pulled him back, glaring at him sharply, and his anger dissipated immediately.

"It’s all your trouble; come on, let’s go back to the Room," said the woman, turning around to leave, leaving Fen Jiu behind with a look of joy on his face as he hurriedly followed, no longer composed, looking more like an impatient young lad.

Bai Ruozhu watched the pair’s retreating figures and murmured to Jiang Yichun, "If it weren’t for the melancholy in that woman’s eyes, I’d suspect they were in disguise."

After speaking, she quickly handed a pill to Jiang Yichun. Jiang Yichun grinned at her, revealing blood-stained white teeth, "I’m fine."

Her nose couldn’t help but feel sour again. Why did she leave the Capital City? Not only had they endured hardships along the way, but her child almost got lost, and her husband was injured. She really should have stayed in the Capital City!

But soon after, she would change this thought and even be grateful for the journey.
