The fat wife is rebellious: she was spoiled by the group on the way to escape famine

Despite being anxious, Jiang Jinhe remained polite, worried that the other party might also be a victim of a scam.

Although buying and selling children is illegal, it is common in this day and age, and some parents even claim that it is for their children's future.

The old housekeeper replied, "Mrs. Jiang, you are so polite. I am just a servant. The child has been taken out of the city by the master. I estimate that he has been out of the city gate for more than an hour."

Upon hearing this, the two became extremely anxious. They had originally hoped to find their child here, but now they only received this kind of news.

Jiang Jinhe couldn't imagine how painful Song Yuyu would be if she knew.

"My dear, I will go and borrow a horse from Lord Lin and his men. Let's chase them immediately."

After that, he asked the old housekeeper, "Excuse me, which direction did your master go when he left the city?"

Fortunately, Jiang Jinhe had an excellent reputation in the city and was respected by the people. The old housekeeper hesitated for a moment and then told him frankly: "The master is going to the capital to seek refuge with relatives, so his destination is naturally the capital."

After expressing his gratitude, Jiang Jinhe asked Song Wenqin to take Zhang Chunxiang back, while he hurried to the county government office to borrow a horse.

Thanks to her previous riding training, she did not become a burden during the pursuit.

Without saying a word, Lin Shen immediately ordered someone to prepare two of the fastest horses for her.

Within a quarter of an hour, the two men had galloped out of the city on horseback.

After leaving the city, they galloped for about half an hour and finally saw the convoy with the Sun family flag flying.

The two stopped the convoy without hesitation, and Jiang Jinhe could faintly hear the crying of a baby. The heavy stone in his heart finally fell - they found it.

Following the sound of crying, Jiang Jinhe rode his horse straight to the carriage and asked loudly:

"Master Sun, this seems to be my child's voice. Can we take the child back?"

But when the other party heard that they wanted to take the child back, not only did he refuse to return the child, but he ordered his guards to take action.

Jiang Jinhe quickly turned his horse's head and narrowly avoided a sharp sword that was coming at him.

Seeing this, Song Wenqin jumped off his horse. The horse was frightened and threw Jiang Jinhe off its back.

Song Wenqin caught her quickly, then protected her behind him and confronted seven or eight guards with knives.

Fortunately, Song Wenqin was a martial arts expert. After a fierce battle that was so intense that it was breathtaking, all the guards fell to the ground and wailed.

Mr. Sun, who was originally arrogant, now knelt on the ground with his child in his arms, begging for forgiveness.

Jiang Jinhe walked forward and took the child, then took out a few strips of bacon from her arms and threw them down - these were the ones she had unconsciously put in the kitchen earlier.

"These can be considered as compensation for Master Sun's losses."

After the matter was settled, the two men returned on horseback.

On the way back, he happened to meet the doctor who was out. It was the one who delivered Song Yuyu before.

Jiang Jinhe hurriedly held the child and walked forward, asking him to check the child's condition.

"It's okay, I just got a little scared. I just need to rest well."

The doctor obviously knew what was going on, but from his hesitant expression...

"Husband, please bring the child in and let my younger sister see him."

Song Wenqin understood that she had something to say to the doctor in private, so he nodded and took the child into the house.

After Song Wenqin entered the room, Jiang Jinhe asked the doctor:

"Doctor, how is my sister's health?"

Jiang Jinhe remembered that when he saw Song Yuyu seemed to have blood on her, he was worried.

The doctor sighed, shook his head and said:

"Alas, that girl was already severely injured after giving birth and hasn't fully recovered yet, and then she was kicked like that. Luckily, she's young and may recover with more time to recuperate. Otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous."

Jiang Jinhe's heart was gripped by the doctor's sigh and shake, but she felt slightly relieved after hearing the explanation.

She thanked him repeatedly, "Thank you, doctor. Thank you so much. I will prepare more tonics for her."

The doctor gave Jiang Jinhe an approving look, but he knew deep down that finding nourishing foods was no easy feat these days; even filling one's stomach was a problem. He didn't say anything, simply bowing and saying goodbye.

Jiang Jinhe sent the doctor out.

In the room, Song Yuyu was crying while holding her child. Jiang Jinhe smiled and comforted her:

"Yuyu, isn't the baby back safely? The doctor has already said it's fine. Don't cry anymore. Besides, crying during confinement is bad for your eyes."

Song Yuyu reluctantly knelt on the bed, her eyes red and swollen, sobbing and saying:

"Brother and sister-in-law, you are my mother and I's great benefactors. I will always remember this. When our child grows up, I will ask her to be filial to you two."

Jiang Jinhe felt both amused and sad at her words, and helped her lie down again:

"We know what you mean. Please rest well. The child is also frightened. We will not disturb your rest. Please comfort the child."

After saying that, Jiang Jinhe took Song Wenqin out of the room.

"My husband, the doctor just told me that Yuyu is too weak to nurse properly. I'm afraid she won't be able to breastfeed herself. I remembered that there's a family in the city that has a lactating ewe. Why don't we go hunting in the mountains and find some local produce to trade for that ewe? That would both nourish Yuyu and provide food for the baby."

Song Wenqin had recently become quite familiar with the terrain at the foot of the mountain, and since the risk had been reduced, he readily agreed.

We have horses for transportation, so we can go quickly and come back quickly, and we should be able to return home before sunset.

You can also feed the horses on the way.

Song Wenqin had set traps in many places in the mountains. The two of them went to check these traps first. They had good luck today and reaped a lot of rewards.

In addition to pheasants and rabbits, they also caught a small wild boar.

Although it is not big in size, it is enough to make the two of them happy.

Jiang Jinhe was worried that the wild boar was too conspicuous, so he and Song Wenqin dealt with it on the spot.

Fortunately, the wild boar had lost blood in the trap, so the cleanup work was not complicated.

After processing the wild boar, Jiang Jinhe found some fragrant wild grass, used dead vines to weave a basket, and divided and wrapped the meat. He did the same with the rabbit and pheasant to prevent the smell from leaking.

In addition, she also cut a lot of grass to feed the sheep at home.

After returning to the city, the two went straight to the shepherd's house and exchanged half of the wild boar meat and a pair of pheasants and rabbits for the skinny sheep.

Jiang Jinhe went to the county government office to return the horse, while Song Wenqin borrowed a flatbed cart to transport the sheep and remaining prey.

They dared not openly lead sheep across the streets for fear of attracting attention and creating hidden dangers.

When returning the horse, Jiang Jinhe gave it a handful of cut grass as feed.

When Lin Shen saw Jiang Jinhe, his joy was beyond words and he quickly pulled her to the backyard.

"Hey, what's wrong? What's wrong?"

Lin Shen simply replied, "You'll know when you get there."

Unexpectedly, what Jiang Jinhe saw in the backyard of the county government office was a field of vibrant green vegetables. He was so shocked that he was speechless.

Thanks to the experience of the old farmers, Lin Shen took good care of the vegetable fields. The vegetables grew far beyond expectations and the soil became more fertile.

Even though she planted the seeds more than half a month earlier, they didn't grow as fast as here.

"how?"

Lin Shen asked with a smug look on his face.

Jiang Jinhe gave a thumbs up to express his admiration.

The next day, Jiang Jinhe picked the ripe vegetables and sent them to the store to distribute to the villagers.

The villagers were all amazed when they saw the fresh and juicy vegetables.
