Revenge

“What is that? What came out all of a sudden?” Liu was so terrified her body became soft and she almost fell on the ground.

They were shrouded in fog and Yuan disappeared too quickly. Nobody knew what happened.

Only that woman of the Fang family suddenly covered her nose and said, “Why is it so smelly?”

The chief of the Yamen officers immediately stood up and pulled out his sword, looking around carefully.

“Everyone, stay where you’re at. Don’t leave.” The chief of the Yamen officers frowned and anxiousness rose around him.

Since Jiang Huaiying screamed just then, his eyelids had been pulsing constantly.

Jiang Huaiying immediately turned pale.

At the same time, Liu started crying. “The grandson of the Jiang family! If something happens to him, how can you make it up to us? The Jiang family is truly being taken advantage of after we lost our power.” Liu’s eyes turned red and she was so heartbroken that she almost fainted.

Jiang Huaiying pinched the corner of her clothes tightly.

It was what she said. What she said was wrong.

Seeing Jiang Huailu stick her little head out of Xia’s arms, Jiang Huaiying knew she had probably met an evil spirit and had said something wrong that angered it.

Jiang Huaiying bit her lower lip with her teeth gently. She thought it was Jiang Huailu. She thought it was Jiang Huailu!

“Father has been looking forward to having a son. Why did the evil spirit treat him so badly? It’s been more than a decade. Does it really want my family to have no successor?” Jiang Huaiying wiped her tears gently and didn’t talk about her mother at all.

Although her mother was the daughter of her grandmother’s sister, Jiang Huaiying understood that her mother has a lower status than the grandchildren after all.

Liu instantly froze.

The chief of the Yamen officers also looked at Jiang Huaiying unkindly.

“Nobody can get out after going into the fog. There hasn’t been anyone who came out of it alive in the last few decades. We’ve already told you clearly that if something happens, it’s impossible for us to send our brothers to die!” The chief of the Yamen officers only felt that the Jiang family caused many troubles, so he was immediately angry.

“You, you… Are you bullying the Jiang family? Although His Majesty banished the Jiang family to Desolate City, you’ve also caused a dereliction of duty.” Liu wasn’t an illiterate village woman.

She had been a titled old lady for decades, so she was much more dignified than a Yamen officer.

The face of that Yamen officer immediately darkened.

He respected the Jiang family and took care of them along the way, not because there were still members of the Jiang family in the capital but because Old Lord Jiang had served the country for decades and it was against his conscience not to help.

But this old lady was never satisfied.

Old Lord Jiang noticed that the Yamen officer didn’t look good, so he quickly got up. Old Lord Jiang, who used to be insistent in court, bowed to the Yamen officer with his hands together. “Sorry, brother. This woman speaks irresponsibly. Don’t argue with her.” Then, he glared at Liu.

Liu had just flicked her sleeves and turned around, and Jiang Huaiying had already come up to comfort her gently.

The chief of the Yamen officers then bowed back to Old Lord Jiang. “You must understand how powerful the fog is. We come here all year round and our old mothers and kids at home are all worried. Once you are in the fog, you’ll be lost and no one has ever gotten out. There is really no need to make senseless struggles. Besides, I’m afraid it’s a weasel that has caught your daughter-in-law.”

“A weasel seeks revenge for the smallest grievance. I guess the other party must have enmity towards her. That’s why he took this opportunity to take revenge. If you want to find her… We can wait for a day, but it’ll depend on yourselves whether you can find her or not.” The chief of the Yamen officers nodded at Old Lord Jiang and took his men to the side.

Old Lord Jiang’s heart sank in an instant.
