“Is that all?”

Chen Guanglu was suspicious, “Then why did the Jiang Family file a lawsuit with the County Government? You didn’t kill anyone, did you?”

“Absolutely not.”

The look of the younger Han wife was evasive, “We just took the child to Zhouhe County, and it was not even Jiang’s child. Why did she have the audacity to sue?”

“Fool!”

Chen Guanglu threw up his hand and slapped the younger Han wife, rebuking angrily, “Even if it’s not from the Jiang Family, how do you know she isn’t from your elder sister’s side?”

The younger Han wife covered half of her face and didn’t dare to make a sound.

Chen Guanglu pointed at her and rebuked, “Since you claim she was your elder sister’s child, you should have handed her over. It would be up to your elder sister to deal with the Jiang Family. Isn’t that what you should have done? So why did you send the child to my elder brother’s house?”

The younger Han wife broke out into sobs, “I… I had no choice, the child had no birthmark on her wrist, and my elder sister feared trouble from the other family and didn’t dare to keep the child. She asked me to bring her back to

Qinchuan County for a while, but I couldn’t possibly bring her home to us…”

Chen Guanglu gritted his teeth in frustration, kicked her, knocking her to the ground, and cursed, “Wicked woman! So you just dumped that troublemaker on my elder brother?”

Although he was not very close to his elder brother, after all, he was his only blood-related elder brother. How dared the Han wife…How dared she hand that child over to his elder brother?

What if the Jiang Family becomes relentless? Wouldn’t his elder brother get punished for the Han sisters then?

Chen Guanglu paced around the room with his hands on his hips, glancing diagonally at the sobbing younger Han wife, he threatened, “You had better go to Zhouhe County right now and take care of that child. Make it a clean job without leaving a trace! She is just three or four years old, easy to clean up. If you leave any evidence behind, I’ll divorce you!”

With that said, Chen Guanglu stormed out of the room.

The younger Han wife managed to get up, absent-mindedly wiped her face, and immediately left to get her servants to harness the carriage and hurry back to Zhouhe County.

Sitting in the mule-driven cart, she wound a thin hemp rope around her hand, thinking about the easiest way to kill the child.

The best method would be strangulation, no blood would be spilled. Then she could discard the body anywhere and be done with it. No need even to dig a pit for burial.

Such a small child, if left in the wild, would be quickly eaten by the wolves or wild dogs. It wouldn’t draw any attention.

With these thoughts, the younger Han wife calmed down and blamed her elder sister once more in her heart.

If it wasn’t for her, she wouldn’t have been cursed and beaten by her husband.

What a useless woman! Ironically, she couldn’t conceive a son, and merely wanted undue complications, which made her journey hundreds of miles in snow. She was not only tired but also had to spend money on bribery.

She would never bother to deal with her again in the future!

The mule-driven cart rushed and arrived at Zhouhe County finally.

But when the younger Han wife arrived at her elder brother-in-law’s house, the sister-in-law notified that the child had run out on her own and had not returned home for the entire night, and they had searched for her for a long time but in vain.

The younger Han wife’s head was throbbing with frustration, yet she dared not stay longer and immediately commanded the servants to drive the carriage back to Qinchuan County.

It snowed only for one night, and then the sky was clear, but the temperature was surprisingly cold.

Yingbao had been staying at this house for several days, staying indoors every day without setting foot outside the yard except for using the latrine.

The female owner of the house sent her some old cotton clothes to change into and had a maidservant help her with washing and combing her hair every day.

On this day, Wu Daozi finally came to pick her up, bringing two servants and two mule-driven carts along.

Each servant drove a cart. There was luggage, bedding, and book boxes tied to the back of the second cart.

After bidding farewell to the household, Yingbao left with Wu Daozi.

She and Wu Daozi rode in the front cart together. The cart had soft cushions, and there were two thin blankets, each draped over a person’s knees, blocking the cold wind coming through the cart curtains.
