Li Yu couldn’t be bothered to look at her. She turned to look at Ji Xiang. “Tie up the old woman who hit the children and bring her back.”

The old lady shouted at Li Yu, “How dare you? That’s my servant. I’m going to sue you for letting your slave commit murder and injuring my servant.”

At this moment, Zhou Jia came with an umbrella and covered Li Yu’s head. He looked at Old Madam Jianning coldly. “It just so happens that I’m going back to the capital to sue Earl Jianning for letting his mother commit murder. She won’t even let off a child of a few years old. If you want to sue, please! Let’s go to the throne room and talk.”

“Your entire family bullied an old woman like me, and you still think you’re in the right? So what if it’s the throne room? You think you’re bluffing those bumpkins. You’re still too inexperienced to bluff me!”

Zhou Jia looked at her coldly. “Am I bluffing you? You’re not worthy!”

Old Madam Jianning choked on Zhou Jia’s words. She watched helplessly as Ji

Xiang tied up and carried Old Madam Zheng back with Li Yu and her husband.

Exasperated, she shouted at the woman standing at the side, “Go, cover the carriage well. I’ll go back to the capital and sue them.”

“Yes, Old Madam.” The woman bent her knees and replied. She ignored the injured guard lying on the road and turned to leave.

“You two are useless. Do you still want me to carry you away?” After saying that, the old lady led the little fatty away.

The guard got up from the ditch and helped the one lying on the ground up. He sighed repeatedly and said, “Why are you so stupid? Look, although I fell, at least my legs are still intact! This old lady is mean and ungrateful. Do you still expect her to treat you? We’ve done a terrible job. When we go back later, we’ll pack up and leave.”

“She has to give me the medicinal soup and silver, right?” The injured guard muttered. He grimaced in pain as he was supported back by his companions.

Li Yu and the other two quickly walked back. Zhou Jia said to Li Yu and Ji Xiang, “Little Loach has already woken up. That child feels the pain in his chest when he vents his anger. Sir said that his sternum is cracked and he has to recuperate for a month to recover.”

Although Little Loach and the others were nurtured to protect Yangyang, Li Yu was still filled with gratitude for Little Loach.

She recalled that she had heard from Mr. Wen in the past that deer bones were good for tendons and bones. She suddenly thought of the wild deer stored in the space. Li Yu decided to wait for Zhou Jia to leave and get the deer bones out to treat Little Loach’s injuries.

“Fortunately, this child took Yang’er’s place. Fortunately, Sir came along.

Otherwise, Little Loach would be in danger.”

“That’s right! Thanks to these children, you can live in the countryside in peace. Little Loach won’t be injured for nothing. I’ll ask Earl Jianning for an explanation. ”

Ji Xiang recalled the reason for the enmity with Earl Jianning’s residence and was furious. “Master, Madam, that old woman raised a ruckus over a few children and could send this damn old woman and the guards to cause trouble for the children. No wonder his third son was put in a sack and hung on a tree naked.”

Li Yu thought for a moment. “I heard Aunt Gong mention this at Ah Qing’s housewarming banquet last time. It seems that this old woman spoiled him rotten.”

Zhou Jia and Ji Xiang looked at each other and thought to themselves that the guy still dared to have designs on Ah Qing!

After Li Yu and Zhou Jia returned, they went to Little Loach’s room and saw Yangyang, Maodou, and the others looking at him from the bed.

When Li Yu walked closer, she saw that his expression was much better than before. He frowned even when he breathed. It seemed that the crack in his chest made his breathing painful. Li Yu also felt a lot of pain when she saw it.

Her heart ached as she stroked his head and smiled. “Little Loach is the bravest. You will be fine soon after Madam makes delicious food for you. You don’t have to agree. Just blink.”

Little Loach smiled and blinked at Li Yu. Yangyang also comforted him. “Brother Loach, recuperate well. I’ll come and see you next time. I know you’re in a lot of pain. You don’t have to promise me that you’ll wait for me to bring you fried quails.”

Li Yu felt that the children were chattering here and affecting the children’s rest. She patted them gently. “Alright, the few of you, go out. Don’t disturb Little Loach’s rest. Yangyang, Maizi, and Maodou, go wash up and change your clothes to accompany Daddy back. Little Stutterer, stay here and accompany Little Loach.”

Yangyang turned to look at Little Loach. “Brother Loach, rest. Daddy and I will go back and complain to avenge you.”

“Yes! We’ll avenge you,” Mao Dou and the others agreed.

Li Yu brought the children out and asked them to take a shower. Zhou Jia said to Li Yu, “I originally wanted to accompany you for a day and go back tomorrow afternoon. I can only go back early now.”

Li Yu thought for a moment and looked at Zhou Jia. “Go back and ask Ji Xiang to look for Earl Jianning first and see what he says. If he’s as unreasonable and arrogant as his mother, we’re not afraid of him. If he’s a reasonable person, let’s reason with him.”

Zhou Jia nodded. “If Earl Jianning is as arrogant and despotic as his mother, we can save some trouble. We can just fall out with him and attack him. His old lady is just like the one in the old residence. She’s also selfish and ruthless. Earl Jianning can be considered a victim.”

“Isn’t that obvious!” Li Yu smiled at him and felt that he was thinking the same thing as her.

Zhou Jia brought Yangyang, Mao Dou, and Maizi into the carriage. Xiao Bai hurriedly jumped into the car with Yangyang. The few of them sat in the carriage and waved goodbye to Li Yu and Mr. Wen. Ji Xiang drove the carriage towards the capital.

Mao Dou and Mai Zi sat beside Ji Xiang to learn how to drive the carriage. Xiao Bai lay at the entrance of the carriage and enjoyed the cold wind. Yangyang was wearing a small coat and lying on the mat in the carriage unhappily.

Zhou Jia looked at Yangyang and asked, “Do you have any insights into this fight?”

Yang Yang sat up and glanced at the carriage following behind. “Father, I think

I’m too weak. I can’t even defeat an old woman.”

Zhou Jia looked at him gently. “That’s right! This time, Uncle Xiang happened to be looking for you for a meal. If Uncle Xiang didn’t come, wouldn’t you have been wiped out by that old woman? If you encounter something that’s not comparable to your ability in the future, what should you do?”

Yangyang looked at Zhou Jia and puffed out her chest. “I have to cultivate well in the future. I won’t be lazy anymore. I have to study hard and get merits.”

Zhou Jia looked at him. “This is what you have to do. You have to know that no matter what status you achieve, there’s nothing foolproof. If the enemy you encounter m tne ruture IS sometmng your strengtn at tnat time can’t aereat, what should you do?”

When Yangyang heard this, he thought of how Old Madam Zheng had kicked Brother Loach away. If Uncle Xiang had not come, he and Brother Maizi might have been kicked away by her. He looked up at Zhou Jia. “I should have asked Father, Mother, or Uncle Xiang for help. I shouldn’t have done it rashly.”

Zhou Jia rubbed his bag and said gently, “Yes, you have to remember that a wise man doesn’t fight when the odds are against him. If he can’t win, he’ll run. It’s never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. When he has the ability, he’ll find someone to make up for it. Only a brainless person will rush in without thinking.”

Yangyang thought for a while and looked up at Zhou Jia. “Father, I’ll remember.”

Zhou Jia kissed him in relief. “Alright, lie down and sleep for a while. We’ll be there soon..”
