Divorced woman with child travels through time

Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look at the beautiful girl in yellow with bright, expressive eyes.

She smiled slightly and said gracefully, "You must be Wang's younger brother. Brother Jin often talks about you. Why don't I take you there?"

"Okay, thank you, Sister Chuchu. You look so beautiful."

Ning Chuchu adored the sweet-talking little guy, so she pulled him along, followed by a string of children.

Jiang Mingyue and Chen Wenfang exchanged a smile and then led Ning's mother into the side hall.

Chu Yi stood still and whispered to the two servants who came to refill his tea, "Have someone prepare everything, and be careful."

"Yes!" Qi Ba'er nodded slightly, picked up the tea set without making a sound, and left.

Just as Wang Erniu was about to take his seat, Zhang Jing walked up to him, took out a letter from his sleeve, and presented it to him, saying, "General, you are heading north tomorrow. The road ahead is fraught with danger and unknown. I have sent a letter to my friends there, hoping they will take good care of you. However, I do not know whether the letter or the general will arrive first, so I have written another one. You can carry it with you, and it may be of some help if needed."

Wang Erniu was deeply moved and accepted the gift with both hands. “Thank you, Brother Zhang. I will entrust Quanzhou City to you from now on. The deputy envoy who will be transferred soon is also my former brother. He is upright, quick-witted, good at fighting and resourceful. I hope that you can assist him in the same way.”

Zhang Jing laughed heartily, realizing he hadn't followed the wrong person. Wang Erniu was indeed very loyal and practical in paving the way for his brothers.

"General, rest assured, I will treat him as you would you."

"Brother Zhang, if you are interested, once I have established myself in the capital, I can transfer you to be my adjutant?" Wang Erniu sincerely invited.

After a slight hesitation, Zhang Jing smiled and said, "If the general rises to the rank of first grade, I will go to the capital to advise him."

These words were quite profound, but Wang Erniu also knew that Zhang Jing was not someone he could order around at will; he could only move people with sincerity.

“Then it’s settled. If one day comes, I will be waiting for Brother Zhang in the capital.” Wang Erniu didn’t finish his sentence, but his words still showed the integrity of a true man.

"Definitely!" Zhang Jing smiled, arms clasped. Wang Erniu returned the greeting.

"Ah! What are you doing!" A startled cry suddenly came from the flower bed in the courtyard.

Everyone looked on in surprise, only to hear an old woman shout, "Good heavens! Murder!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his mouth was covered, and then a large number of uniformed servants poured out of the courtyard, taking away many servants and others. There were about a hundred servants, all of whom were men in their twenties, and they were well-trained and moved in and out with extraordinary speed.

Ouyang Junyan and the others immediately realized that it was those people who had made the move, and hurriedly invited people to take their seats as usual.

Although the guests were flustered, they didn't want to ask too many questions, so they just smiled and sat down.

"General, are those people from our camp?" Zhang Jing calmly stroked his beard and ate a melon when he saw several familiar faces among them.

"Hmm, someone's getting impatient." Wang Erniu glanced at the crowd and continued walking forward.

"You're really bold!"

"That's not."

Wang Erniu intended to sit down, but he always only paid attention to his wife. He glanced over unintentionally and saw that among the women behind him, many old women and servants were struggling. One old woman even seemed to have a death wish, and she drew a knife and rushed towards Madam Jiang.

Wang Erniu saw through the deception; what appeared to be a thrust at Madam Jiang was actually aimed at Chen Wenfang.

Chen Wenfang never liked to bring maids with her; she only had a few old women at home, let alone bring any out. Since A-Yue was heavily pregnant, she naturally didn't come out either.

"Watch out!" Wang Erniu was extremely anxious. He was quite far away, but at the critical moment, he saw Chu Yi standing nearby and immediately shouted, "Chu Yi!"

The sound was so loud, like a thunderclap from a clear sky, that everyone in the courtyard immediately fell silent and quieted down!

The old woman who was about to make a move was stunned for a moment, and her knife even trembled.

At the first glance, Wang Erniu immediately looked at Chen Wenfang.

Chu Yi realized it, but it was too late; the old woman was already just a step away from Chen Wenfang.

However, the sound also startled everyone. Jiang Mingyue was the first to react. She saw the old woman's knife coming at her and pulled Chen Wenfang with the force. Chen Wenfang used the force to shoot out her short crossbow with a "whoosh!" and accurately hit the old woman.

"Ah! You! You'll die a horrible death!" The old woman clutched her abdomen, pointing a finger at Chen Wenfang, her triangular eyes filled with clear hatred, as if she were a murderer of a family member. She let out a wail and staggered to the ground.

Chen Wenfang's expression changed. Who was this? She didn't even know her. How had she offended her?

Chaos erupted in the courtyard. The women looked at Chen Wenfang with varying expressions. Although they didn't say anything, they were probably already gossiping in their hearts. After all, anyone who could stand beside Madam Jiang was definitely not an ordinary person. Moreover, with Wang Erniu's great victory, Chen Wenfang, as his only wife in the inner quarters, was someone others were well aware of.

"What's wrong with this old woman? She must have been a thief who accidentally sneaked in. Quickly, someone drag her away!" Jiang Mingyue said with a smile, her expression unchanged. "Everyone, please sit down. The dishes will be served shortly."

He secretly grumbled to himself, "These thieves are so annoying! If it weren't for this scheme, they wouldn't have let anyone in and made such a mess of things."

Before she could finish speaking, Caixiu cried out in alarm, "There are others! Madam, be careful!"

Before Jiang Mingyue could say anything, she was pulled apart. Jiang Mingyue looked over in a panic and saw that an old woman behind Madam Ning had somehow ended up standing next to them in the chaos. Because of what had just happened, she and Chen Wenfang were standing side by side.

The old woman actually pushed her and then stabbed Chen Wenfang in the back.

"no!"

"No!"

"stop!"

This was too obvious. Apart from Chen Wenfang, who was completely unaware, even Ning's mother saw it. In a panic, everyone instinctively rushed towards her, trying to stop the old woman.

Wang Erniu was not someone to be trifled with. Everyone in Quanzhou knew how much he doted on this Madam Chen. Yet, he was also a killing machine, capable of slaughtering 30,000 Japanese soldiers without hesitation. If Madam Chen were to die at the hands of the Ning family, not only would the marriage be ruined, but the Ning family itself would likely never return home.

In a moment of panic, Jiang Mingyue lunged forward, nearly falling, and grabbed the old woman's sleeve. Caixiu grabbed her arm, but Ning's mother couldn't hold onto the old woman and fell sideways onto Ning Chuchu. The two of them fell down together, tripping over the wife of Magistrate Chen, creating a chain reaction that caused a large number of people to fall down. Chen Wenfang was also pressed to the ground.

There were too many people, and things were in complete disarray. Chu Yi and the others stood by anxiously holding their crossbows.

Although the old woman's upper body was restrained, she struggled forward with immense strength, wildly slashing, "I'll kill you, you slut! Kill you! Ahhh!"

She flailed about wildly, then with an elbow strike, knocked Caiyun over. Suddenly, she pulled something from her sleeve and threw it into the courtyard, creating a cloud of smoke.
