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

Lu Yinheng froze when he realized the person in his arms had fainted.

"Father! Is Mother alright?" Lu Yanqi broke free from Gu Shi's embrace and asked with some concern.

Lu Yanqi's words brought the Lu family back to their senses, and they all went forward to check on Ji Yunshuang.

Ji Yunshuang's actions just now not only shocked the fellow refugees, but also greatly frightened the Lu family.

Ji Yunshuang's act of beheading people was simply too brutal. They were just ordinary people who had never seen such a horrific scene before.

But no matter how ruthless Ji Yunshuang was, that was only towards the bandits who wanted to rob them. Everything she did was to protect them.

If Ji Yunshuang hadn't been ruthless enough, this battle wouldn't have ended so quickly, and they wouldn't be standing here unscathed.

Lu Yinheng held Ji Yunshuang stiffly and said to his son, "Your mother is fine. She just fainted from exhaustion. She'll wake up soon."

In fact, Ji Yunshuang had already woken up by this time.

She fainted suddenly just because she lost control of her emotions and the impact was too great.

When she woke up, she found herself in the arms of the cuckolded man. Remembering what had happened before she fainted, a chill ran down her spine.

However, the current situation does not allow her to pretend to be dead.

She could only grit her teeth and open her eyes, saying, "I'm fine now, let's find somewhere to take shelter from the rain!"

Lu Yinheng hummed in agreement, released her, and said, "You guys go ahead first."

Ji Yunshuang guessed that he wanted to stay and deal with the corpses before leaving.

Actually, she planned to put the corpse into her spatial storage when no one was looking.

Anyway, there are still two corpses in the space that haven't been dealt with.

I'll just leave them all in my storage space and deal with them all at once later.

Seeing his confident expression, she didn't say anything more. Instead, she took the children to find shelter from the rain and left the scene to Lu Yinheng to handle.

When the bandits attacked, both the Sun and Hu families managed to escape in the chaos. But the Zhao family not only didn't leave, they moved a little closer to the Lu family.

Although the group didn't offer much help, they left a good impression on the Lu family, and they called upon them to take shelter from the rain this time.

Ji Yunshuang, however, showed no kindness to the Hu and Sun families.

The Hu and Sun families were also frightened by Ji Yunshuang's fierce appearance just now, and neither of them dared to go forward shamelessly. They could only follow behind silently.

Because this section of the official road is surrounded by mountains and is located in a desolate area, there are no villages nearby.

Ji Yunshuang led her people for several miles before finally seeing a dilapidated post station.

However, this post station had obviously been abandoned long ago; several houses were crooked and dilapidated, and there were still many refugees taking shelter from the rain inside.

However, upon seeing Ji Yunshuang and her group, some refugees, out of fear, led their families out of the post station in the rain.

Ji Yunshuang led her people into the post station without any expression. After finding a corner for her family to sit down, she said, "I'll go find some firewood."

Lu Wuzheng spoke up first, "Sister-in-law, let me go!"

"You stay here and look after the family, and wait for your older brother. I'm going to find firewood, I'll be back soon."

After saying that, Ji Yunshuang strode out of the post station.

It was pouring rain outside, so finding dry firewood was certainly not easy. However, she had her own spatial ability, so it was a minor issue for her.

When she was in the mountains, she often took the opportunity to transplant various medicinal herbs and wild fruit trees into the black soil.

She transplanted more than just wild fruits like hawthorn, persimmon, and sugar pear to the black soil.

She also transplanted chestnut trees, jujube trees, wild walnut trees, and other trees to the black soil.

These large trees already had some dead leaves and branches, which she hadn't had time to tidy up before.

Today, I took this opportunity to tidy up all the dead branches of these trees.

By the time she returned with the withered leaves and branches, Lu Yinheng had already caught up and returned to the Lu family.

Seeing the firewood Ji Yunshuang was holding, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he quickly concealed it, stepped forward to take the firewood from her hand, and took out tinder to start a fire.

The firewood was lit, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

The closer you get to Jiangzhou, the lower the temperature becomes.

After the rain, the temperature dropped several degrees. Both Lu Yanqi and his sister were so cold that their faces turned pale.

Ji Yunshuang gestured for the two to move closer to the fire, then, carrying the cauldron, said to Lu Yinheng, "You set up a frame, and I'll go fetch some water to make a bowl of ginger soup for the children."

Lu Yinheng nodded and went to find some wood to build a frame for hanging the tripod.

Although the post station was abandoned, there was a well in the backyard, so Ji Yunshuang no longer needed to hide in the space to fetch water like last time.

But she still deliberately went into the woods and took out ginger and scallions from her spatial storage.

Lu Yinheng was very efficient. By the time Ji Yunshuang returned, he had already set up the rack for hanging the cauldron.

He naturally took the cauldron from Ji Yunshuang and placed it on it to heat it.

After the water in the pot boiled, Ji Yunshuang threw in the ginger and scallions that she had washed earlier. After cooking for only four or five minutes, she quickly took out a bowl and scooped them out to share with her family.

Looking at the bonfire and ginger soup on Ji Yunshuang's side, both the Hu and Sun families showed expressions of longing.

But Ji Yunshuang did not share them.

She first gave each of her own family members a large bowl, and then distributed the rest to the women, children, and relatives of the Mu and Zhou families.

There were two bowls left, which she had Lu Wuzheng deliver to the two children of the Zhao family.

Seeing that Ji Yunshuang was giving ginger soup to children she didn't know at all, but not to the eldest couple, Hu Quan gave them a knowing look.

Hu Chunjiao trembled and looked at Lu Wuzheng with resentment.

Although the two had broken off their engagement, he was still incredibly heartless. He actually gave the ginger soup to a complete stranger instead of offering it to her.

Could it be that he has taken a fancy to the older sister of those two children?

She bit her lower lip and glared hatefully at the girl standing in front of Lu Wuzheng.

Then I rolled my eyes in my mind.

That girl had a face full of pockmarks and couldn't even compare to half of my looks. Besides, I was blessed with good fortune by the gods; how could she possibly be better than me?

Lu Erlang actually went to fawn over that ugly woman instead of trying to win her forgiveness. A man like her deserves to marry an ugly woman and be a poor wretch.

Hu Chunjiao used to completely disregard Lu Wuzheng, and even resented her parents for arranging a marriage for her. But for some reason, after the engagement was broken off, she felt increasingly resentful.

Lu Wuzheng didn't notice Hu Chunjiao at all at this moment.

He did have feelings for Hu Chunjiao before, but after Hu Chunjiao made unreasonable demands on him for the sake of her family, completely disregarding the well-being of his family, his feelings for her gradually faded.

Now that the engagement has been broken off, they are complete strangers. He certainly wouldn't go out of his way to take care of a complete stranger.

Following his sister-in-law's instructions, he delivered the ginger soup to the two children of the Zhao family and then turned to leave.

Zhao Jingru thanked him softly, "Thank you so much, brother!"

"You're welcome." Lu Wu was thinking about how she had loudly warned her nephew when someone tried to harm him during the chaos earlier, and then added, "This is also to thank you for taking care of my nephew earlier."

Zhao Jingru said apologetically, "I wasn't much of a help! Why don't you guys be more capable yourselves..."

Her reminder was of little use.

Lu Wuzheng understood what she meant, but he still thanked her for her kindness.

Especially when the Sun and Hu families, who had been traveling with them, completely disregarded their family members and fled.

Seeing that both the Sun and Hu families were looking this way, he deliberately said loudly, "Then we still have to thank you for your kindness! Our family are the most grateful people."
