Divorced woman with child travels through time

The moment the carriage curtain was lowered, his gaze swept over Ren Mu, who was trying to smile at Xiao Hao!

In an instant, his gaze turned cold, and he shouted, "Stop that carriage! Hurry! Hurry!"

"You bitch, I haven't had my fill yet, and you think you can run away!"

At his command, the servants who had been squatting idly by the roadside suddenly stood up, numbering at least several dozen.

"Get out of the way! Everyone get out of the way!" "Move aside!"

Amidst the commotion and the scattering of chickens and dogs, the crowd was startled and chaos ensued.

"The carriage! Stop right now!"

"Hey you, I'm talking to you! Stop!"

A group of ugly, scruffy thugs began to give chase, following their carriage.

Old Fang, who drove the cart for Chen Xuanyu and his companions, was a veteran in his forties. He had been discharged from the army long ago due to injury. He had known Wang Erniu for a while. He had no children and initially came to drive the cart to earn a living. However, the Wang family was incredibly kind to him. No matter if it was a holiday or festival, he would get something for everyone else. He had clothes for all four seasons, food, drinks, and snacks—he lacked nothing. In particular, the children were very sweet-talking and would give him everything. Since coming to the Wang family, he hadn't spent a single penny and had already saved over two hundred taels of silver. He was thinking that he might as well find a companion for his old age.

When someone shouted from the roadside, he sensed something was wrong and, worried about blocking the road, whipped his horse and ran.

Hey, guess what? They're coming for them! Old Fang grinned at the crowd behind him, cracked his whip, and shouted from behind, "Kids, sit tight!" The carriage sped off.

The carriage made several turns and then shook off the passengers.

The car stopped in a small alley, and Lao Fang got out and asked with concern, "How are you? Are you alright?"

"It's alright, it's alright!" The children were all fine, except for Ren Mu, who was slumped in the sedan chair, pale-faced and panicked.

“You guys go to the school! Just climb over this wall and you’ll be there. I’ll wait here. Don’t let anyone see our car.” Old Fang pointed to the wall, which was about two people high.

“Okay!” The children didn’t think anything was wrong and quickly crawled over using their hands and feet, except for Yu Yu, who didn’t know anything and just stood aside watching dumbly.

"What are you looking at? Go around to the front and enter through the main gate!" Old Fang shouted, standing outside the alley and watching him.

"Oh!" Yu Yu pouted, picked up her small bag, and ran off in a flash, quickly entering the school.

Old Fang withdrew his gaze, returned to the carriage, took out a bag of peanuts, and began peeling them with a "crunch, crunch" sound.

Ren Mu stared blankly.

Old Fang didn't quite understand his youthful, weary attitude, nor did he understand his pain. Seeing him looking at it, he assumed he wanted to eat, so he reached out, grabbed a handful, and handed it to him. "Want some?"

Ren Mu watched his mouth open and close, and wondered if it smelled delicious. She nodded subconsciously.

Old Fang shoved the peanuts into his hand, then turned back to continue eating them. Roasted peanuts are so fragrant!

Ren Mu was stuffed with peanuts so quickly that it was over before he even had time to feel nauseous. Suddenly, he seemed to realize that he had finally escaped that hellhole, as if in a dream.

With trembling hands, Ren Mu carefully peeled open a peanut, put it in his mouth, and chewed it slowly, letting the aroma of the nuts fill his entire mouth. As if reborn, he couldn't help but burst into tears.

Old Fang found it strange. Had this young master never eaten peanuts before? He was so moved by a handful of peanuts; it was truly incomprehensible.

Old Fang shook his head and continued to stare outside the alley.

Time passed very slowly. Ren Mu ate the warm peanuts little by little, accompanied by the sound of reading aloud. He seemed to be in a daze and fell asleep while listening.

Old Fang glanced back and smiled again. This kid can still sleep at this hour.

The two of them stayed awake until the afternoon, when the children got out of school, and Ren Mu finally woke up, looking much more energetic.

"Haha, Brother Ren, did you eat peanuts today?" Chen Xuanyu said to him with a grin.

"Yes." Ren Mu nodded reservedly.

"Here, try this. It's peanut candy my mom makes. It's really delicious." Chen Xuanyu stuffed another piece of sweet candy into his hand without saying a word.

"I have some too, this beef jerky is delicious!" Fifteen retorted, not to be outdone.

"Then I'll share some of this snack with you." Xiao Hao hesitated for a moment, then broke off an uneaten piece and gave it to him.

"I don't have any left. I secretly ate it all this afternoon." Yu Yu opened her schoolbag to prove that she had nothing left.

"Then I'll give it to you!" Fifteen gave Yu Yu another handful; he always had the most snacks.

"Hold on tight, we're going home!" Old Fang looked at them with a smile, and with a flick of his wrist, the carriage started moving again. Since no one had found them all day, the group must have left by now, so Old Fang drove home with peace of mind.

Turn another corner, and you'll reach the restaurant you passed in the bustling city center this morning.

Old Fang felt a little uneasy and wondered if he should take a detour.

His premonition grew stronger, and he couldn't help but pull on the horse's head, preparing to turn.

"Where do you think you're going!" As he spoke, several thugs jumped out.

Old Fang got nervous and immediately realized what was happening, so he whipped the horse.

"Trying to run away!" A furious shout came from a distant high-rise building, and countless thugs appeared from all directions, surrounding the carriage.

"It's over!" Old Fang thought to himself. No wonder there were so few people on the road today. He gritted his teeth and shouted loudly to those behind him, "Hold on tight!"

He whipped the horse hard, and the horse, in pain, charged forward without regard for its surroundings.

Old Fang was confident because the carriage had been specially modified. Back then, when Chen Wenfang rode in it to evade pursuit, soft cushions, handrails, and hooks were added all over the place to ensure that she wouldn't get hurt.

"If you run again, I'll take action! There are barricades ahead, are you sure you want to run?" A cold, threatening voice came from the high-rise building.

"Whoa!" Without him saying a word, Old Fang had already pulled the horse tight, and with a neigh, the carriage finally came to a stop without any serious incident.

The few people who had fallen and were in a daze inside the carriage lifted the curtain and peeked out.

"What do you think you're doing? Why are you blocking our carriage! Don't you know this is dangerous? Don't you have any manners? Didn't your father teach you anything?!" Chen Xuanyu, standing on the carriage, angrily rebuked the people on the high-rise building.

Young Master Cheng was so angry he almost twisted his nose. Where did this clueless kid come from?

"Whose kid are you, daring to run wild on my turf? Do you think your grandpa can do whatever he wants? Who told you to say that!" Young Master Cheng was not very cultured, and he had always been stubborn and didn't know how to argue, so naturally he refused to admit defeat.

"You, with barely any hair on your head, want to be a grandfather? With your body like that, humph!" Chen Xuanyu looked at his dark circles under his eyes, which looked like he had been punched. "I'm afraid you can't even be a father."

These words really hit his sore spot. Don't be fooled by his tall and strong appearance; he's actually been drained of his energy and can't have children!

Young Master Cheng couldn't help but fly into a rage, "Never mind that, charge! Beat them to death, leave no one alive!"
