More importantly, Wei Ying and her daughter were on the verge of death when they encountered such a turning point, which everyone considered a good omen.
After a moment of joy, the Jiang family inquired about the recent situation of Lu Shiyan and Jiang Tangtang.
"Where's my younger sister? What are you doing here? Is she alright? Has she suffered?" Jiang Dahai looked Lu Shiyan up and down, feeling that his brother-in-law had become much more unfamiliar after not seeing him for several months.
“We came to the mountains together. When I heard the noise coming from this side, I came over to check. She was waiting for me over there.”
After briefly explaining his family situation, Lu Shiyan expressed his concern for Jiang Tangtang and said he needed to go back to pick her up first.
The Jiang family was pleased to see how attentive he was and urged Lu Shiyan to go and take care of Jiang Tangtang first.
Lu Shiyan didn't stand on ceremony. After greeting everyone and telling them to wait for him there, he hurriedly went back to find Jiang Tangtang.
Although they hid her in a big tree and gave her a special amulet, encountering the Jiang family in the forest meant there was no guarantee she wouldn't run into other people. Besides, being deep in the mountains, they were still worried about leaving her for too long.
As for Jiang Tangtang, there was indeed a small problem.
Lu Shiyan placed the two of them in a large, leafy tree, partly to avoid wild animals and partly to provide them with shelter.
But there are especially many insects on the leaves in summer.
Not long after Lu Shiyan left, Jiang Tangtang accidentally bumped into a few star aniseed sheep roe, and her face and arms turned red.
Unfortunately, she upgraded the scanning system last night, and used up all her points. Now she can't even find some medicine to apply.
Jiang Tangtang felt both pain and itching, and almost cried out.
Fang Mingming carefully held the rabbit and sat on a tree branch nearby. Seeing that Jiang Tangtang's eyes were red, she whispered, "Sister-in-law, why don't you put some saliva on it? The old folks in the village all say that saliva is medicine. We used to do that when we got bitten by insects in the village."
Jiang Tangtang looked at the dense bumps on her arms with a bitter expression. Was she supposed to smear her face and arms with saliva?
Just thinking about it made Jiang Tangtang feel like she was going to die.
Lu Shiyan returned at this time.
Upon seeing Lu Shiyan, Jiang Tangtang's tears, which she had been holding back, burst forth like a waterfall. She threw herself into his arms, crying, "Husband, my hand was bitten by an insect, waah... it hurts so much, I'm going to be disfigured..."
She probably didn't even realize it herself, but without her noticing, she had already come to rely on Lu Shiyan.
When she saw Lu Shiyan return, she immediately threw herself into his arms for comfort, forgetting that she was currently in a tree.
Or perhaps it wasn't that she forgot, but rather that subconsciously she felt that with Lu Shiyan around, these were things she didn't need to worry about.
That is indeed the case.
Although Jiang Tangtang's movements were dangerous, Lu Shiyan still gently caught her and helped her down to the ground with his arm around her waist.
Lu Shiyan held her face and wiped away her tears, saying, "Just apply some medicine, it won't disfigure you."
Jiang Tangtang said pitifully, "But it hurts so much, it burns so badly, waaaah..."
"Wait here for me a moment, I'll find you some herbs."
Lu Shiyan quickly found some herbs and crushed them to apply to Jiang Tangtang's face and arms.
The cool and refreshing feeling made Jiang Tangtang feel more comfortable.
Seeing that she had calmed down, Lu Shiyan began to talk about meeting the Jiang family.
Jiang Tangtang was momentarily confused. "You mean that scream just now came from my fourth sister-in-law? She's giving birth in the mountains?"
Lu Shiyan nodded, but did not mention that he had helped Wei Ying with her difficult childbirth. He simply said, "I will take you to see them."
Jiang Tangtang was a little nervous.
According to the original owner's memories, her older brothers in the Jiang family doted on her. Her parents treated her like a precious treasure.
Although Jiang's father was a butcher, he lived a better life than the average family in the village, but the Jiang family had many sons, so the burden was not small. However, the original owner of this body had never worked in the fields since birth.
Given how much they doted on the original owner, will they discover that she isn't their daughter? What will their reaction be then?
"Does it still hurt?" Seeing her pained expression, Lu Shiyan took some herbs, crushed them, and applied the medicinal juice to Jiang Tangtang's wound.
After applying the medicine several times, the pain from the insect stings subsided, and Jiang Tangtang sweetly thanked him, "Thank you, husband."
"Let's go find my older brother and the others!" Since they had to face it sooner or later anyway, Jiang Tangtang finally decided to rise to the challenge.
Lu Shiyan helped Fang Mingming down from the tree and led the two of them to meet up with the Jiang family.
As the group hurried toward the Jiang family's house, the Jiang family members anxiously looked around.
Madam Wang complained to her sons, "You brothers should have gone with Lu to pick up Tangtang. There are many wild beasts in this forest. If you had gone with them, you would have had more help if you encountered anything on the way."
Jiang Dahai said, "Mother, my brother-in-law is better at fighting than any of us brothers."
He didn't notice Lu Shiyan when he arrived, but he saw him clearly when he left.
His skills are unmatched by ordinary people.
He had hunted in the mountains with Lu Shiyan before, and he had witnessed Lu Shiyan's skills. Back then, Lu Shiyan was also quite skilled, but compared to now, it was simply incomparable.
He became increasingly puzzled. How could his brother-in-law be such a different person after they fled from disaster?
The Jiang brothers chimed in, "Yes, yes, with brother-in-law's current skills, all of us brothers combined wouldn't be a match for him. Who would have thought that his kung fu would improve so rapidly while we were escaping this disaster?"
Seeing that her sons all said so, Wang was relieved. "It's good that he has improved. The outside world is too chaotic now. If his kung fu has improved, he can protect your sister."
When the situation outside was mentioned, the Jiang family members became worried.
They set off before the Lu family and found a place to settle down first. But just when they had finally settled down, the Western Rong attacked again.
The family had no choice but to pack their belongings and flee again.
If they hadn't had the advantage of having many men in their family and hadn't managed to hide in the mountains in time, they would probably be dead by now.
"I saw my aunt!" Jiang Qilang's childish voice pulled everyone out of the somber atmosphere.
Wang was the first to rush over, pulling her close to examine her closely, saying, "Tangtang, you've suffered so much, you've lost so much weight."
Jiang Tangtang was initially worried that meeting the Jiang family would be too unfamiliar, and since she wasn't the original owner of this body, she wouldn't know how to handle it. However, when Wang Shi pulled her close and showed concern, she felt a rare warmth.
Although she was rich in her past life, she had never experienced such warmth.
Her mother was obsessed with love, and all her attention was focused on her father. Every time her father had a new lover, she would hysterically confront him and even get into physical altercations with his lovers.
For love, she drove herself to madness, and even chose suicide to make the philandering man feel guilty.
When she was pursuing a passionate love affair, she never thought that she had a daughter.
She watched her jump from the high building, feeling utterly desperate and heartbroken.
