Chapter 244 Scum



Time is running out and the group must leave Surabaya City as soon as possible.

Qi Lin was still a little worried and said hesitantly, "Godmother, why don't you go first and I stay here to wait for you, godfather."

"Yes, godmother, Dalinzi can speak barbarian language."

Qi Ju was worried about her brother, but after weighing the pros and cons, she decided that she couldn't just give up on her savior.

Jiang Yuzhu glanced at the sky, pushed Qi Lin and said, "Why are you fussing so much? When you get caught again, will you wait for your godfather to rescue you again?"

Out of trust between husband and wife, Jiang Yuzhu chose to leave without hesitation.

Qi Lin had walked through the tunnel he chose this time before. It was narrower than the last time and could only accommodate two people.

The good thing is that most of the people who use this tunnel are visiting relatives or small business owners, so they rarely encounter any black market robbery.

As soon as they got into the tunnel, He Hua in Qi Ju's arms staggered and fell to the ground.

Qi Lin lit the torch and called out softly, "Lotus, get up quickly!"

Qi Ju was pregnant and couldn't stand the fatigue, so the group planned to take a rest after walking for a few hours.

After shouting a few times, Lotus still didn't get up from the ground.

Qi Lin thought He Hua was upset because she was separated from her father, so he went forward to help her. When he touched her, he was startled: "Why is it so hot?"

The firelight shone on Hehua's face, and the little girl's face was already abnormally red.

Lotus's consciousness was in a state of confusion. She was mumbling and grabbing Qi Lin's sleeves. Suddenly, she foamed at the mouth and twitched.

Qi Ju was instantly terrified, her face pale, her lips trembling: "I only packed a package of food, what should I do?"

Hehua had a high fever and was in convulsions. If she had waited until the border town, she would have died.

Qi Ju was terrified and could no longer maintain her composure. "It's all my fault. When we were leaving, Hehua said she felt uncomfortable. I thought she didn't want to leave her father, so I didn't take it seriously..."

Having already entered the tunnel, it is obviously impossible to go back.

Qi Ju froze in place, her palms filled with cold sweat.

Jiang Yuzhu squatted down and went forward to investigate. Jiang Huaiqing quickly handed her a kettle and said, "Little sister, give her some water first."

"no!"

Jiang Yuzhu frowned. No wonder Lotus had convulsions. The fever was too high!

The best we can do now is to lower the temperature first, otherwise our lives will be in danger.

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Jiang Huaiqing standing there in a daze. Qi Lin and Qi Ju, brother and sister, looked puzzled. Jiang Yuzhu tilted Hehua's head to the side and explained, "Feeding water at this time is a big taboo. If it gets into the trachea, there's a risk of suffocation."

As she spoke, Jiang Yuzhu asked Hehua to continue lying flat and loosened her clothes.

"Second brother, give me the wine jug."

Jiang Yuzhu calmed Qi Ju down with a few words, and used a handkerchief soaked in wine to wipe Hehua's body to cool her down.

Next, use a snowball as an ice pillow.

After about half an hour of struggling, Lotus finally calmed down and gradually regained consciousness.

Qi Ju burst into tears of joy and cried, "Godmother, you saved Hehua's life again. You are the benefactor of our whole family!"

"The conditions in the tunnel are limited. We must get to the border town as soon as possible."

At present, the temperature has temporarily dropped.

Jiang Yuzhu touched the lotus. Although her body was hot, her hands and feet were cold. According to past experience, the high fever would recur.

"Dalinzi, why don't you take Hehua back first? I'm slow, so don't wait for me!"

Qi Ju wiped her sweat; she really couldn't walk fast.

After everyone discussed it, Jiang Yuzhu accepted Qi Ju's suggestion and said to Qi Lin, "You stay with Daniu, and my second brother and I will take Hehua back to the border town for treatment."

Convulsions are very severe and can cause irreversible damage if not handled properly.

After discussion, the two sides believed that it was feasible and decided to meet at the border town.

After walking for a day and a half, when Jiang Yuzhu breathed the air of the border town, her fatigue was gone and she felt refreshed.

She washed off the makeup on her face and took Hehua back home first.

When the maids heard that their mistress had returned, they went out to greet her.

Hongli was the first to notice the little girl in the bearded man's arms and asked, "Madam, why did you bring back a little girl?"

"Who's that bearded guy coming along?"

"Where's the master?"

Jiang Yuzhu rubbed her brows and asked, "There are so many questions, which one should I answer first?"

After walking for more than a day, I had almost no water.

Jiang Yuzhu quickly ordered Hongxiu, "Is there anything to eat in the kitchen? If not, heat up the frozen buns."

"Hongjin, what are you still standing there for?"

Jiang Huaiqing tore off his beard and waved his hand.

At this, several maids could not help but be shocked. Mo Yan, who had rushed over after hearing the news, stared at the little girl in Jiang Huaiqing's arms and said with a dark look, "Second Brother Jiang, is this the concubine's daughter you raised outside?"

Jiang Huaiqing thought there was something wrong with his ears and asked, "What?"

Mo Yan pursed her lips. Seeing her sister-in-law Shen Zhilan winking at her, she quickly changed her words and said, "Nothing!"

When Jiang Yuzhu returned home, the mansion suddenly became popular.

Hong Jin subconsciously changed the subject and said, "Madam, Doctor Yan is at home. Why don't you ask him to come and see the little girl?"

Recently, Yan Lin has been living in his house with Xiaowu, just rolled up his bedding. He has advanced to the point where he can slaughter pigs and sheep without batting an eyelid.

Hearing that there was a patient, Yan Lin rushed over with his medicine box to examine He Hua. After a while, he said, "The situation is quite serious. If the temperature had not been reduced in time, the little girl would have died. However, you must pay more attention to her after the convulsion. If the fever continues to rise, it is very likely to cause a second convulsion."

Hehua's condition was stable, but Jiang Huaiqing could no longer sit still. He only ate two buns to fill his stomach and rode out of the city to meet Princess Yutan.

The two had been separated for several days and there was no news from Jiang Huaiqing. He had to give Princess Yutan an explanation.

Hong Jin brought a horse over and saw Jiang Huaiqing's anxious face. She couldn't help but remind him, "Second Young Master, if you are misunderstood, don't take it to heart. Sometimes reputation is not that important."

Jiang Huaiqing didn't understand. Could it be that he went to Sishui City and was misunderstood as collaborating with the enemy and committing treason?

“Those who are pure will themselves be cleansed.”

Jiang Huaiqing naturally wouldn't take those mean-spirited remarks to heart.

After simply washing his face and shaving the stubble on his chin, Jiang Huaiqing went straight to the military tent in the north camp without even changing his clothes.

Inside the tent, the generals learned the news that Jiang Huaiqing had returned.

Some people who disliked the Jiang family spat and said, "Scum!"

"That's right, the Jiang family's playboy still has the nerve to come back!"

"Jiang Huaiqing, can't you be a little more self-aware? Why do you want to hurt the princess again?"

The princess is a killing god in the eyes of the soldiers of Da Qi. She defends her country and deserves a better man.

Jiang Huaiqing has a concubine and illegitimate sons and daughters. Is the princess going to marry such a person and become someone's legal mother?

"We don't agree to this marriage!"

"Yes, even if it offends you and the Jiang family, we still have to express our disapproval!"

Jiang Huaiqing sat on his horse in a daze, not reacting for a long time. Were these people talking to him?

"Unfaithful man!"

"shameless!"

The soldiers also cursed in a low voice. Seeing Jiang Huaiqing's face change drastically, everyone felt a sense of relief that they were doing justice for the people.
