After being exiled with her husband and children, she returned with great power to rule the world

Huo Jianjie sighed helplessly, his brows furrowed, and his face was full of embarrassment. He looked at the people in front of him, his heart full of worry, wondering when this difficult journey would end.

Murong Ling'er was skillfully roasting a wild rabbit on the side. Beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, but her eyes were focused and determined.

After a while, two fragrant rabbits were freshly baked. She looked at Qifeng and the others with her bright eyes, and said enthusiastically with a smile on her lips, "Brother officials, you have worked hard on the journey. These two roasted rabbits are for you."

Chiffon hurriedly thanked them, took the rabbit with both hands, and happily shared it with his companions.

As they devoured the meal, they couldn't stop praising Murong Ling'er's cooking skills: "This roasted rabbit is really crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and it's filled with fragrance. Miss Murong is such a great cook!"

Murong Linger smiled and replied, "As long as the officers like it, it's good. It can fill everyone's stomachs, and it's also a small token of my appreciation."

Then, Murong Ling'er roasted another wild rabbit. With a warm smile on her face, she handed it to Chu Chu and said, "Chu Chu, take this one and share it with your mother and sister!"

Chuchu took the hare with gratitude in her eyes, then carefully separated the hare in her hand and handed it to Wang and Chu Yinyin.

Chu Yinyin took the rabbit meat handed to her by Chuchu, her hands trembling slightly. She looked at the fragrant rabbit meat in her hand, feeling mixed emotions.

She used to be willful and unruly, always targeting Murong Ling'er, making trouble for her over all kinds of trivial matters, and speaking ill of her in front of everyone.

But now in this difficult time, Murong Ling'er did not hold grudges and shared the precious food with them. Chu Yinyin's eyes gradually became moist, and her heart was filled with guilt and gratitude towards Murong Ling'er.

She blamed herself for being too willful and ignorant in the past, only acting according to her own temperament and never considering the feelings of others.

At this moment, Chu Yinyin secretly swore in her heart that she would reform herself and never be like before.

Afterwards, Murong Ling'er roasted a plump wild rabbit and handed it to Deng Lihua, saying gently, "Aunt Deng, this wild rabbit is for you to share with Zihao and the others."

Deng Lihua's face was full of gratitude, and she quickly said, "Thank you, Ling'er, you are always so thoughtful."

Looking at his sensible and considerate eldest daughter, Huo Jianjie felt as if his heart had been overturned with all five flavors, all of which were unpleasant. He only hated himself for being so foolish and letting down his eldest daughter for the sake of his younger daughter!

But he should have loved his two daughters equally, but he unknowingly favored one over the other, leading to the current irreparable situation.

He knew very well that his mistakes had brought too much grievance and harm to his eldest daughter. Those moments of neglect and unfair treatment were like thorns that pierced his eldest daughter's heart and also deep in his own soul.

He wanted to make amends and redeem himself, but he didn't know where to start. He was afraid that his actions would once again cause misunderstanding and disgust from his eldest daughter.

He hopes that time can slowly heal the trauma in his eldest daughter's heart, and he also hopes that he will have a chance to rebuild the deep family relationship with his eldest daughter that he once destroyed with his own hands.

At this time, Huo Shuixian no longer paid attention to her father who was in a daze. She just stared at the wild rabbit in Deng Lihua's hand. She swallowed unconsciously, looking forward to getting a share.

But there was a sense of self-righteousness in her eyes, as if she felt that Murong Ling'er should be given it to her.

However, Murong Ling'er just glanced at her indifferently, curled the corners of her mouth slightly, and said: "I only give my food to those who are worthy." These cold words pierced Huo Shuixian like a sharp sword.

Huo Shuixian's face instantly turned extremely ugly. She bit her lips, clenched her hands into fists, and the resentment in her heart burned like a raging fire.

She cursed Murong Ling'er fiercely in her heart: "You bitch, how dare you embarrass me in public? I, Huo Shuixian, will never let you go! Just wait and see, one day I will make you pay for what you did today! I will make sure you know the consequences of offending me."

After saying that, Murong Ling'er no longer paid attention to Huo Shuixian's face which turned ashen in an instant, and turned around and walked back to the carriage with light steps.

After hearing Murong Ling'er's words, Deng Lihua immediately understood that this meant not to give the food to Huo Shuixian, the ungrateful person.

She couldn't help but secretly admire Murong Ling'er's clever move in her heart. It not only made her attitude clear, but also avoided getting too entangled with Huo Shuixian.

At the same time, she also felt helpless and angry about Huo Shuixian's ignorance.

Deng Lihua thought to herself, "This Huo Shuixian is usually arrogant and ungrateful. It's her own fault that Ling'er didn't give her food."

As she thought about it, Deng Lihua shook her head and stopped looking at Huo Shuixian's angry expression.

Murong Ling'er, who was in the carriage, did not have much in her heart. She knew Huo Shuixian's character very well and was not afraid of her resentment.

She just did what she thought was right. In this difficult journey, kindness must have a sharp edge and those with bad intentions must not be allowed to succeed.

After everyone enjoyed the roasted rabbit and ginger soup, the heavy rain still showed no signs of stopping.

Qi Feng and others closed the door of the dilapidated temple, and Chu Lingfeng also got out of the carriage at this time.

A group of people sat around the fire, gradually feeling sleepy and dozing off unconsciously.

The crackling sound of rain seemed to be the most wonderful sound to help him sleep. Murong Chen nestled comfortably in Murong Ling'er's arms and soon fell asleep.

I thought no one else would go out in such bad weather.

However, after sleeping for a short while, I heard a loud knock on the door.

"Open the door! Is anyone there? Open the door!"

Outside the door, a woman shivering in the rain was knocking on the door with all her might and shouting loudly.

Behind her, an extremely gorgeous sedan was carried steadily by four bearers, followed by a dozen guards. They all stood in the rain, their bodies soaked from head to toe.

Baozi was frightened by the sudden knock on the door and trembled all over, waking up instantly from his sleep. He turned his head and saw that Chu Lingfeng had returned to the carriage. He quickly got up, trotted to the temple door, and reached out to open it.

As soon as the temple door opened, the woman rushed in before she had time to see the situation inside the temple.

Afterwards, the big sedan chair followed in, bringing up a thick cloud of water vapor. The noisy sounds instantly broke the original tranquility of the dilapidated temple.

"Ah! Why are there so many people over there?"

At this moment, a crisp sound came from the sedan chair.

A beautiful woman poked her head out of the sedan chair. When she saw so many people in the dilapidated temple, she showed a look of surprise.

The woman walked towards the girl anxiously and said, "Miss, the rain is too heavy. I'm afraid we have to take shelter in this dilapidated temple for a while."

The woman frowned slightly and nodded, but her eyes couldn't help but scan the crowd curiously.
