When Jiang Qinyu got home, she found that Old Man Lu and Chen were both in her house.

"Dad, Mom, why haven't you rested yet?" Jiang Qinyu looked at the two of them strangely, then looked around, "Have Shufan and Pan'er gone to bed?"

Chen replied, "I've put them both to sleep."

Jiang Qinyu looked at her in confusion. Since the child was coaxed to sleep, why hadn't they gone back yet?

Chen took her hand and patted it, "We are going back now. Your father and I want to help you clean up Shufan and Pan'er's room so that Azheng won't have nowhere to sleep when he comes back."

Jiang Qinyu: "..." What should she say?

Chen and Old Man Lu went back. Jiang Qinyu returned to the house, but did not see Shu Fan and Pan'er.

It goes without saying that they must have been sent to the next room.

Jiang Qinyu went to the next room helplessly. When she entered, she saw Shufan and Pan'er lying on a small bed. They opened their eyes when they heard the door open.

When they saw it was her, the two little guys immediately got up and ran to her.

"Aunt, grandpa and grandma said that uncle is back. Will he dislike us?" Pan'er's eyes were red. It was obvious that she felt extremely insecure after knowing that Lu Yanzheng was back.

Shu Fan calmed down a lot, "Pan'er, Auntie said she will never leave us. If Uncle doesn't like us, we should just stay away from him."

"Don't talk nonsense," Jiang Qinyu looked at them with a mixture of laughter and tears. "If he doesn't like you, then that's his problem. We should just break up with him. There's no need to make us unhappy."

Compared to Lu Yanzheng, she is definitely closer to the two children. If he cannot tolerate the children, she will ask for a divorce.

As for the life-saving favor that Brother Jiang owed him, what she had done for the Lu family and Dingshui Village during this period was more than enough to repay that favor.

The two children felt relieved when they heard her words, but Pan'er still asked, "Aunt, will my brother and I sleep here from now on?"

"Can you sleep by yourself?" Jiang Qinyu asked back.

Pan'er's little body trembled, and she bit her lip and said, "I... I'm scared..."

When she came back from the ancestral hall just now, she saw dead bodies, a lot of blood, and many injured uncles and aunts. It was so scary...

"If you're scared, sleep with your aunt tonight," Jiang Qinyu patted her head and took their hands back to her room. "But you've grown up, and after the Lantern Festival, you and Shufan will have to sleep on your own."

After the Chinese New Year, the two children will be seven years old. Boys and girls of seven years old should not sit in the same seats, so it is time to sleep separately.

Of course, the premise is that Lu Yanzheng doesn't come to compete with them for space.

……

Because they were frightened for most of the night before and had to deal with the wounded afterwards, they had no time to deal with the captured bandits.

It was not until the afternoon that Village Chief Li took Chen Shao, Liu Erlang and others to send the bandits who were tied together to the county government office.

Before Lu Yanzheng left last night, he told them to send all these people to the county government office.

"Stop! Don't leave, let my Xiaobo go!"

Wang Pozi and her family stumbled over. Wang Quezi and the youngest son of the Wang family blocked the way to Village Chief Li, while Wang Pozi and her daughter held Wang Bo back and wouldn't let him leave.

Village Chief Li frowned and glared at Wang Quezi, saying, "What are you doing? Don't waste everyone's time!"

"Just arrest the bandits if you want to. My Xiaobo has done nothing wrong. Why are you arresting him?" Mrs. Wang shouted at the crowd.

Chen Shao rolled his eyes. "He's still saying he didn't do anything wrong? You didn't hear what Brother Zheng and Brother Qin said last night, right? Wang Bo is a deserter! Deserters lose their heads!"

He felt that Brother Zheng must have not killed Wang Bo immediately because they were from the same village. If it were him, he would not be able to tolerate someone who abandoned his companions and ran away, and would chop him down every time he saw him.

"So what? Xiaobo must have his reasons!" Mrs. Wang said unreasonably, her hands on her hips. "Besides, he's back now. We're all from the same village. Can't you just pretend you didn't see him?"

Everyone was stunned by her words.

Aunt Qin tutted her tongue and said, "Mrs. Wang, you really don't learn your lesson! Last night, your Wang Bo ignored you and ran for his life, and now you're pleading for him? He can't even ignore his own mother. Are we going to keep him in the village and let him stab us in the back later?"

"You old bitch, stop talking nonsense! What's wrong with Xiaobo running for his life? He won't let himself live, so how can he let me, an old woman with one foot in the coffin, live? Besides, no matter what he did, he is my son. I am happy, so what's it to you?" Mrs. Wang glared at Aunt Qin and found an excuse for Wang Bo.

She was indeed very sad when Wang Bo left her and ran away last night, but later she thought it through. In that situation, it was right for her son to run away. Why should she care about her own son?

It has to be said that Mrs. Wang's words once again stunned the people of Dingshui Village.

Jiang Qinyu looked at this scene and shook her head, once again marveling at the biodiversity. There really are all kinds of people in this world!

"Auntie, if someone doesn't even care about his own mother, isn't he worse than an animal?" Pan'er tilted her head and asked curiously, "Why is Grandma Wang still helping him?"

Everyone was awakened by Pan'er's words and pointed at Wang Bo and talked about it.

However, something that even a child could understand, Wang Po just ignored. She glared at Pan'er with disgust and cursed, "What do you know, you wild boy? You have a mother but no mother to protect you, you know nothing! He is my son, even if he kills someone, I will protect him!"

As soon as these words came out, Jiang Qinyu's expression changed immediately. She walked forward with a gloomy face, staring at Wang Pozi coldly, "Tell me again, who is the wild cub? What did you protect?"

"I...I still want to say it! You raise these two bastards just to take care of you in your old age! They are not your biological children, who knows how they will treat you in the future!" Wang Po was frightened by Jiang Qinyu's momentum, but she still stiffened her neck and shouted loudly.

Jiang Qinyu sneered, "You raised him as your own child, but in times of crisis, he abandoned you. Is this what you want?"

A deserter, a man who pushed his own mother to death and ran away himself, was protected by Wang Po like this. If she hadn't brought up Pan'er, Jiang Qinyu wouldn't even bother to speak.

"He is my son! Whatever I want to do to him is my business. You, who have never given birth to a child, don't know shit!" Mrs. Wang spat without restraint.

Jiang Qinyu quickly dodged and avoided being spitted on by her.

But Wang Po's behavior completely angered her. Jiang Qinyu dodged and then quickly stepped forward, raised her hand and slapped her several times.

"It's because of mothers like you that there are cowards like Wang Bo who deserted the army! Not only did you not educate him properly, but you also protected and indulged him. People like you are not worthy of being a mother!" Jiang Qinyu said coldly, and took several steps back in disgust.

She disdains to breathe the same air with such a person.

"Ms. Wang Qi, please ask Wang Bo where your second son Wang Lang is?" At some point, Lu Yanzheng appeared at the entrance of the village, with the same leather mask on his face.

Lu Yanzheng's words startled Wang Pozi. She immediately looked at Wang Bo, whose expression had changed. "Xiaobo, where's Alang?"
