Confiscating property? A stunningly beautiful substitute bride empties the national treasury and is

"Husband..."

"Second Brother..."

Seeing that the danger had passed, the Huo sisters rushed towards the unconscious eldest Huo brother and Lu Yunqi.

Song Qingqian turned to look at Lu Jingchuan, who was covered in blood, and asked with concern, "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine."

"Qianqian, leave this to me. Go check on Second Brother and Eldest Brother Huo. They seem to be injured."

Lu Jingchuan waved his hand, trying to comfort Song Qingqian, but with his clothes covered in blood, he had to give up the idea.

Song Qingqian nodded, carefully wiped the blood off the boomerang with a handkerchief, and put it away. She had specially customized this boomerang using the Pindou system.

Although it cannot compare to the one her parents gave her in her previous life, it is still a top-notch work of this era, a unique existence.

Lu Yunqi and the eldest son of the Huo family only suffered minor scratches, and both woke up in less than the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea.

At this moment, Da Hu came over directly and pleaded, "Miss Lu, there are too many injured people. Doctor Hu can't handle it all by himself. Can you help me? Please."

Although the two wolverines were dealt with, the entire exile group was filled with unease, fearing that another wolverine might suddenly appear at any moment.

Song Qingqian nodded, said nothing more, went to the back of the carriage to get her medicine box, and went with Da Hu to see a doctor.

Xiao Zhuozi reported from near Sun Wuyin's carriage: "Sir, the wolverine just trampled three people to death and injured seventeen others, including six seriously injured, three of whom were soldiers."

"Alright, pull out the names of the three who died, and I'll report it to the imperial court later."

Sun Wuyin lifted the carriage curtain and instructed, "Tell everyone to pack quickly. We'll depart in half an hour. This godforsaken place is too dangerous. Let's try to get into Jiangcheng safely tonight!"

"Yes!"

Xiao Zhuozi respectfully replied, "Sir, the wolverine brothers have all been divided up, and we can have a better meal at noon."

"Okay, make it delicious, don't waste such good ingredients!"

"My subordinate understands!"

Lu Jingchuan had just changed out of his outer robe when he saw that Lu Yunqi had already separated the wolverines with the Wang and Huo families.

Wang Beimu smiled and said, "It's just in time that General Lu is out. The meat has already been cut up, so you can decide how to divide it. Neither of our two families has any objections."

Lu Jingchuan glanced at the wolverine meat and laughed, "My wife said we can take a smaller share of the meat, but she has a use for the skin, so we can have it!"

"Alright! Then I'll give you a leg and a piece of skin, and we'll split the rest between our two families."

"Row!"

Lu Yunqi watched as Wang Beimu separated their belongings, then he lifted one leg and returned to the vicinity of the carriage.

Wang was overjoyed to see her husband bring back a lot of meat. She made some of it into dried meat using the method Song Qingqian had taught her last time. She ate some at home and planned to sell the rest in the city for money.

Old Madam Huo of the Huo family was displeased and lay in the carriage, shouting:

"Why give this hide to the Lu family? It could fetch a good price if sold, or even if not sold, it could be used to make hats and clothes for Dong'er. Why are they getting it so cheaply?"

"If we're talking about who contributed the most, we did the majority of the work, and our leader even got injured because of it."

"Even if we don't want the skin, we should get the lion's share of the meat. Why should we split it equally with the Wang family?"

"You two brothers are getting more and more spineless. You don't even dare to utter a sound when you're being bullied!"

Old Madam Huo was angry and seized this opportunity to vent it all. The two Huo brothers looked at each other and their expressions changed instantly.

Huo the eldest said frankly, "Mother, keep your voice down. You can't say that. We did put in the effort, but in the end, it was Lu Laosan and his wife who killed the wolverine. We're already doing very well to get this much."

"Nonsense! Without your help, could the three members of the Lu family have killed the wolverine? Don't let others' glory dampen your own spirits!"

Old Madam Huo continued to shout, "Go to the Wang family and ask for another half leg. We must take the lion's share."

Huo Chong retorted anxiously, "Mother, what are you doing? The meat has already been divided, so please stop making a fuss. It's not good if others hear us. We'll have a long road ahead of us, how will we get along in the future?"

"Go your own way, do we need them? You guys go quickly, we can't let this go unpunished! This is outrageous!"

After Old Madam Huo finished speaking, seeing her two sons bowing their heads and remaining silent, she then shouted at Madam Huo:

"You're a woman, it's easy for you to get things done, you go and do it!"

"Are you deaf? What are you standing there like a block of wood for? The Huo family doesn't keep idle people!"

Huo remained unmoved, continuing to process the meat in her hands, completely ignoring her.

Old Madam Huo glanced at the group of people pretending to be stupid, then angrily bared her teeth and brandished her claws. She then picked up her cane and forcefully jabbed it at her granddaughter standing to the side.

The child was pushed off the carriage and was about to fall to the ground when Huo Chong caught her with lightning speed.

Wow…

Wanwan burst into tears in fright. The Huo family members immediately stood up in shock, and Huo the eldest roared:

"Mother, what are you doing?"

“Take your anger out on me. How can you lay a hand on a child? Don’t you have any conscience? Wanwan is still a member of the Huo family.”

"So what if I hit her? She's just a money-losing piece of trash. She's a waste of food if she's alive. She'd be better off dead!"

When Old Madam Huo saw her eldest son yelling at her, she immediately turned red with anger and shouted:

"You all despise me, I might as well be dead!"

Seeing that her daughter was unharmed, Madam Huo could no longer control herself. She grabbed Old Madam Huo and threw her off the carriage.

He angrily retorted, "Yes, you're right, I just despise you. You've tried to harm Wanwan time and time again. Why don't you just die? Everyone would be happy if you died!"

"You killed someone! You unfilial daughter-in-law, you've finally spoken your mind. I've raised a bunch of ungrateful wretches..."

Old Madam Huo fell to the ground, pounding her chest and crying out, "I can't live anymore... Let me die, let me die!"

"Mom, what are you doing?"

Huo Chong handed Wanwan to Huo Shi and tried to help the old lady Huo up, but she slapped him hard twice!

Hearing the crisp sound of the slap, the Huo family members were stunned, but the two brothers were powerless to do anything and could only carry the old lady back onto the carriage!

Wang clenched her fists in anger, wanting to go forward, but Wang Beimu stopped her, whispering a reminder:

"Ever since that old lady of the Huo family became paralyzed, her temperament has changed drastically. Don't go and provoke her. Besides, she just complained that the meat wasn't divided fairly. If you go and try to help, you'll only make things worse, and you might end up getting angry yourself!"

Wang complained angrily, "She's getting more and more senile as she gets older. Why does she always take her anger out on the child? Wanwan hasn't done anything to provoke her. It's really going too far!"

"That grandson is being spoiled by that old woman and is becoming more and more indifferent. His own sister is right next to him, and he doesn't even try to pull her up when she falls. If we don't correct him in time, it will be too late."

Wang Beimu sighed: "There's no way!"

After Song Qingqian finished stitching up the last wounded person, she heard the Huo family arguing again, with some exiles muttering:

"They argue three times a day. I don't know if they're annoyed or not, but I'm getting tired of hearing it."

"Who says otherwise? Look, hardly any families want to live near the Huo family anymore. Not only is it a headache from all the noise, but the old lady's smell is unbearable for most people. I think even their carriages stink..."
