My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.
Chapter 161 Disappointment
"Do you remember how we got here?" Mr. Chen asked, gesturing for her to look at the luggage around them. "Do you think we could move all this stuff to the mountains?"
Chen's mother's face paled, and she said, "She has many helpers?"
Chen's father lowered his voice and said, "Whether she has helpers or not, it shows that her power is beyond our imagination."
Our futile struggles are not only pointless, but might even cause trouble for our son. Besides, Hui Niang is pregnant; given our current situation, it's not suitable for us to escape. Let's just leave it at that for now!
Chen's mother had to admit that her husband had considered things more thoroughly than she had, and given their current situation, it was indeed more appropriate for them to settle down and make plans slowly.
And so, the Chen family settled down in the cave.
Ji Yuqing was the oldest child in the cave and took the initiative to show the Chen family the cave.
Chen's mother also took the opportunity to inquire how these children got into the cave.
"It was my sister who saved us. She is a very good person. If it weren't for Sister Ji, we would all be dead by now."
Ji Yuqing looked at Chen's mother with innocent curiosity and asked, "Auntie, did my sister save you too?"
Thinking back to the scene at home, Chen's mother realized that they had indeed been rescued by that woman. She nodded in agreement.
"Then we're family from now on," Ji Yuqing said happily. "It wasn't easy for my sister to save us, so let's not cause her any trouble..."
The Chen family was initially wary of Ji Yunshuang, but as they looked at the group of sensible children, their wariness slowly began to crumble.
How bad could her heart be if she could save so many children?
It may be wrong for the sons to betray their former masters, but they had worked for the Huang family before and knew them to some extent.
Master Huang is a lecherous old man who has ruined countless young women. And his son is just as ruthless…
They had no choice but to work for the Huang family before, but if their son could leave the Huang family and find a wise ruler, it might not be a bad thing.
Mr. Chen began to understand the children's abilities and secretly pondered what to teach them. To his surprise, all the children could read.
Although apart from Ji Yuqing, the other children did not know many characters, in an era when many poor families could not afford to send their boys to school, it was astonishing that so many girls had received an education.
Chen's father used to be the manager of the estate. He was not only literate, but also good at using an abacus and had some insights into planting.
Father Chen did not hold back, and taught all his skills to the children to the best of his ability.
Ji Yunshuang never expected that she had only helped Chen Wu to avoid further trouble, and had also taken the opportunity to settle the Chen family in the mountains. This unintentional act turned out to be a treasure for her.
However, she didn't have time to pay attention to things in the mountains and was unaware of the situation there.
When she returned to the village after descending the mountain that day, she found the entire village to be extremely oppressive, and faint cries could be heard coming from many homes.
She then remembered that tomorrow was the day the new recruits would enlist.
No one from the Lu family cried.
However, the atmosphere was unusually somber.
The Lu brothers, Xu Mu and Xu Mu, who had been helping out at the shop, also returned.
"When I'm not home, you need to take good care of the family." Lu Yinheng looked at his two younger brothers, gave them some careful instructions, and then went to see Ji Yunshuang.
He considered asking her who she was several times, but after several attempts, he still couldn't figure out how to ask.
He asked, "Wouldn't this shatter the peace we've established?"
For some reason, he felt inexplicably afraid of breaking the surface peace.
A silence filled the room.
After a long while, Lu Yinheng finally said, "Those children in the mountains, you'll have to work hard from now on."
Ji Yunshuang ignored his words and looked into his eyes, saying, "You really don't want me to go in place of my second brother? I'm more suited to the battlefield than him, aren't I?"
When she looked at him like that, Lu Yinheng's heart started pounding uncontrollably.
He almost instinctively reached out to press his rapidly beating chest.
In his previous life, he had served as a high-ranking official for many years and had long been accustomed to concealing his emotions. But at this moment, he was completely unguarded in front of Ji Yunshuang.
Realizing that he was not only attracted to her but also lacked even the most basic sense of vigilance, he took a deep breath and said, "I know you are very capable, but Jiangzhou may not be peaceful in the future. If you stay in Jiangzhou, the dangers you will face may not be any less than those on the battlefield."
Was he secretly confessing to himself, revealing his identity as a reincarnated person? And then wanting her to share her experience as well?
But Ji Yunshuang did not want to share.
Although judging from his daily behavior, he is a person of high moral character, noble virtue, and trustworthy.
Her secrets can only be gleaned slightly by the person she has the neck to suffocate.
She didn't want to strangle him now, nor was she prepared to kill him at any moment. He was far superior to Xia Biao and Chen Wu.
She didn't ask him how he knew Jiangzhou wouldn't be as dangerous as the battlefield, nor did she ask him what dangers he might face.
Ji Yunshuang is used to relying on her own abilities to shoulder the burden alone.
Knowing that he was reborn, they did not have any intention of taking advantage of his rebirth to obtain any information in advance.
Seeing her performance, Lu Yinheng felt a little disappointed.
But then I realized that this was normal. I had misunderstood her all along and hadn't been kind to her, so how could she easily trust me?
In the end, it's all my fault for being too stupid.
While the two were talking in the room, Gu Chunzhi was busy preparing in the kitchen.
In addition to preparing a sumptuous dinner so that everyone could have a reunion meal before the son left, we also prepared a lot of dry food for the two brothers to take with them on their journey.
Now that the family has no shortage of food and drink, Gu Chunzhi prepares as much meat and other filling food as possible.
That evening, many families, like Gu Chunzhi's, were preparing provisions for their family members who were about to travel.
The Hu and Sun families, far away in Weisha Village, were also preparing provisions for their family members who were about to travel.
But neither family had anything good to eat, so they ended up making wild vegetable dumplings with the wild vegetables they dug up from the ground.
At this moment, both families couldn't help but think of the Lu family.
Thinking back to the time when he could still eat meat while fleeing with the Lu family, but now that they've settled down, he can't even eat meat anymore, Hu Erge once again complained about his elder brother and sister-in-law, as well as his sister who had run away.
He said, "Lu Dalang is good at hunting, and his wife is lucky. They certainly won't lack food and drink! I wonder what they will prepare for them."
Hu Ersao complained, "If Chunjiao hadn't broken off the engagement back then, we would still be with the Lu family now, and things wouldn't be like this now."
Sister-in-law Hu retorted irritably, "Yes, it was my husband and I who insisted on Chun Jiao breaking off the engagement. We were wrong, okay? But because of our mistake, my husband and son both went to serve in the military. What more do you want? Haven't we paid such a high price enough?"
