Chapter 26

Hurt Her Face

Before Liu could ask who the debt collector was, those Yamen officers had already stood up. “I smell blood.”

Liu’s heart immediately tightened.

As the jingling got closer, the smell of blood became heavier. Xiao Huailu directly sat up in her brother’s arms.

Her flushing face crumpled. “The smell of the debt collector.”

Jiang Huaian saw that wrinkles had almost appeared on the girl’s face and he asked as he laughed, “What debt collector? Look at your face. It’s like a bun.”

Xiao Huailu pouted with her watery eyes, looking sad.

Of course, she dared not to say that she smelled the weasel.

“It’s Yubai and Yingying!” Liu explained and quickly got up to greet them.

As anticipated, Jiang Yubai and the others walked out from the fog.

Jiang Yubai was helping Yuan, who looked like a drowned mouse. Her hair was messy and she was lowering her head. Nobody could see her face clearly.

Jiang Huaiying was covered in blood and her face was terrifyingly pale. She was also holding a child in her arms.

“Is it a boy or a girl? Is the baby hurt?” Jiang Yuqing immediately went over to Jiang Huaiying.

Jiang Huaiying paused for a second and replied, “Congratulations, father. It’s a boy. He was startled in mother’s womb, so he’s a bit weak, but he isn’t injured.”

Jiang Yuqing took the child joyfully and thanked Jiang Yubai again and again.

Liu also wanted to see the baby, but Jiang Yubai was still helping Yuan walk. After all, he was a man and it wasn’t very appropriate.

“Why aren’t you coming over to help? Are you sitting there, waiting for me to serve you?” Xia had just made some porridge, but Liu immediately scolded her loudly.

Xia remained silent. This wasn’t the time to make a fuss.

She just went forward and grabbed Yuan. Once she held Yuan with her arms, Yuan fell straight down.

Xia lifted her face and was shocked.

“Her face?”

Everyone quickly looked over. Half of Yuan’s face was covered with blood. Xia got some hot water for her to clean her face right away and she found that her face was full of scratch marks, as if something injured her.

“She was scratched by a weasel. Good Lord! That weasel must have become a monster. It can stand and walk like a human. If it wears some clothes, it’s as tall as a child.” Jiang Yubai was also scared.

Nobody noticed Jiang Huaiying’s slightly nervous look.

“The weasel kidnapped them. Huaiying and I went after them, but when that weasel saw us, it started to attack us. The baby was already born at that time. I was focusing on wrapping the baby, while Huaiying and Yuan were staying together. I have no idea how it scratched them.” When Jiang Yubai went over to help, Yuan’s face had already been injured.

“Oh f*ck! There’s really a weasel that’s turned into a monster.” Some prisoners were stunned. They only found Desolate City even more terrifying.

Yuan finally collected herself after drinking some water. When she glanced at her daughter, her expression changed a bit.

“I…”

“Mother saved me. That thing jumped on me and it was about to scratch my face with its claws. Mother pushed me away.” Jiang Huaiying suddenly started weeping softly. This messy girl stood on the side alone, looking pitiful.

Yuan looked at her and gently closed her eyes. She didn’t say anything else.

Liu cried with her heart broken. “You did well. I’m glad you’re back alive. When we get to Desolate City, we’ll find a doctor to help you. There won’t be any scars. You love your daughter so much. You know that she can’t hurt her face because she’s still young and still hasn’t married. Good job.”

Knowing that everyone was back, the chief of the Yamen officers didn’t want to be a bad guy anymore.

He let the Jiang family rest for a while before they continued the journey.

Jiang Huailu went to see her little cousin with her brother.
