My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.

When Ji Yunshuang led Lu Yuzhu and the others out of the cave, Tianrui had already returned from hunting and was waiting at the cave entrance.

Upon seeing Ji Yunshuang and Lu Yuzhu emerge, Tianrui immediately stood up.

Lu Yuzhu ran happily toward Tianrui, but she stopped halfway there and pointed to the wild boar next to Tianrui that was missing its head, saying, "Mom! Look!"

Seeing that the two had discovered the prey they had brought back, Tianrui raised his head and showed a proud expression.

Look! Woman, this is the book Tiger brought back for you!

Seeing Tianrui's expression, Ji Yunshuang couldn't help but laugh.

She stepped forward and ruffled Tianrui's hair, saying, "Is this a gift you brought back for me?"

Tianrui nodded arrogantly.

Ji Yunshuang praised, "You're really amazing!"

Looking at this tiger on the ground, it must weigh at least two or three hundred pounds. I wonder how it managed to bring it back.

Tianrui smugly said, "It's only two or three hundred pounds. This tiger can hunt bigger ones."

Looking at its smug little face, Ji Yunshuang thought this tiger was truly a spirit. She said to Chen Wu, "Let's move the wild boar back to the cave for everyone to eat!"

After expressing his gratitude repeatedly, Chen Wu carried the tiger back to the cave.

Chen's parents and others saw each other off at the cave entrance. They were surprised and grateful to see that the tiger raised by Ji Yunshuang could actually catch prey.

"Sister Ji is so amazing! Even the tiger listens to her."

"It's so good to be her daughter, Yuzhu is so lucky!"

"We're not too bad off to have her as our older sister!"

……

The girls gathered together, chattering away. When they saw Lu Yuzhu turn around, they all slowly waved goodbye to her.

Lu Yuzhu waved to them and asked, "Mother, can I come here again in the future?"

Ji Yunshuang said, "I'll bring you here again when I have time next time."

"Mmm!" Lu Yuzhu nodded.

Ji Yunshuang then asked him, "It's getting late. Shall we have Tianrui take you back?"

"it is good!"

Without Ji Yunshuang needing to say anything more to Tianrui, it lay down in front of Lu Yuzhu, and Lu Yuzhu, as before, rode on its back.

Having experienced riding a tiger before, Lu Yuzhu was much bolder. She hugged Tianrui's neck, giggled twice, and said, "Tianrui, charge!"

Upon hearing her command, Tianrui immediately dashed out like an arrow.

Upon seeing this, Chen Wu hurriedly chased after him.

"Master, you don't need to worry about me. You go and look after the young master first!" Zhu Dong'e felt that she was a burden and could not help Ji Yunshuang at all. She decided not to come to the mountain next time to avoid causing trouble for Ji Yunshuang.

Ji Yunshuang said, "It's alright, Tianrui knows what he's doing and won't break the pearl."

Just as Ji Yunshuang said, Tianrui took Lu Yuzhu on a trip and then returned to Ji Yunshuang's side.

Lu Yuzhu's face was flushed from the wind, and she said excitedly, "Mother, Tianrui is so amazing! It just took me to a very, very high cliff!"

Upon hearing Lu Yuzhu's praise, Tianrui immediately straightened its neck, indicating that this was nothing and that it could be even more amazing.

Seeing Chen Wu running back, panting, it gave him a disdainful look. These two-legged beasts are utterly useless; what kind of subordinates did you hire?

Looking at its disdainful eyes, Chen Wu felt as if he had been stabbed a thousand times; he was being looked down upon by a tiger.

This tiger is actually vying for attention.

No, he needs to work harder; he can't let a tiger look down on him.

Ji Yunshuang was unaware that Tianrui's unintentional action had spurred Chen Wu's competitive spirit, prompting him to train even harder to serve her.

She smiled and praised Tianrui, which finally stopped the show-off.

The group returned home after dark.

Gu Chunzhi had already prepared the meal, and when she saw Ji Yunshuang and the others return, she quickly invited them to eat.

Lu Yanqi, however, sized up Ji Yunshuang and the others, and taking advantage of Ji Yunshuang's inattention, quietly asked Lu Yuzhu, "What did you go to the mountains for?"

Lu Yuzhu thought about what her mother had told her, and her eyes darted around. "Mother taught me to recognize herbs and wild mushrooms. Big brother, I know so many herbs now."

Lu Yanqi could tell from his sister's overly active eyes that she wasn't telling the truth.

He asked calmly, "Where's the man who came back with you? Where did you meet him?"

Just as Lu Yuzhu was about to utter the word "mountain...", she abruptly changed it, "...inside!"

She exclaimed excitedly, "Tianrui even took me on a ride! Tianrui is amazing! It can take me up to very, very high cliffs!"

Lu Yanqi felt increasingly strange. He was about to ask more when he heard Ji Yunshuang say, "Zhuzhu, have you washed your hands? Come and eat."

"I'm all washed!" Lu Yuzhu shook the water off her hands and went to find Ji Yunshuang.

Lu Yanqi could only swallow the rest of his questions.

Gu Chunzhi had no idea that Ji Yunshuang would bring people back, but a lot of food was prepared at home.

It was mainly because Zhong Xu and Qiu Yuan, those two big men, were at home and ate a lot.

In fact, Ji Yunshuang and Gu Chunzhi had asked the two to return to the Wei family many times, but the two always found excuses to stay and refused to leave.

They said the general had already given them to the Lu family, and that he wouldn't accept them back.

As if afraid the Lu family would kick them out, the two of them didn't stay idle at the Lu family's house and competed to do chores every day.

The Lu family's woodshed was piled high with firewood, all from trees that the two of them had cut down in the past few days, then chopped and stacked with axes.

The two also cleared out all the nearby wasteland.

However, since the two were not slaves, it was impossible to keep them doing odd jobs at the Lu family's house indefinitely. After the meal, Ji Yunshuang called the two aside.

"Speak! What is your purpose in staying here?"

Both men stated that they had no ulterior motives.

Ji Yunshuang smiled and said, "You don't want to be my servants for the rest of your lives, do you? Are you willing to accept that?"

The two men said in unison, "We want to follow you, Lieutenant General Ji!"

"And what about your general?" Ji Yunshuang asked. "If one day I were to fight your general, whose side would you choose?"

"This……"

Both of them were in a dilemma.

General Wei had shown them great kindness and favor.

But if they followed Ji Yunshuang, she would become their new master. They should be loyal to her.

Ji Yunshuang said, "So you should go back! Don't stay here, lest you cause trouble for both sides later."

Qiu Yuan bowed deeply to Ji Yunshuang and said, "If one day you and the general become enemies, I will stand on your side."

Zhong Xu echoed, "Once we've joined General Ji's ranks, we're your people. No matter what, we'll stand by your side."

Ji Yunshuang looked at the two of them and said, "Don't you feel sorry for your general?"

Qiu Yuan said, "The general left us with the Lu family because he truly hopes we will protect the Lu family's safety. If one day we really have to choose between you, we will choose you, and we believe the general will understand us."

Ji Yunshuang raised an eyebrow and said, "At a time like this, you're still speaking well of your general. I wouldn't dare use you."

Zhong Xu said, "I'm not trying to speak well of him. The general is not the same as Wei Yuqi. He is an upright man. You will understand when you get to know him."

After saying this, the two knelt down together, begging Ji Yunshuang to accept them.
