Looking After a Battle God With Hundreds of Billions in Supplies

60 Can You Be Eaten

When he was searching for Chu Yun just now, he did meet some familiar people. Two of them were his previous gatekeepers. A few days ago, Jiang Yang had secretly contacted them. He asked them not to follow him for the time being, in case they were all wiped out in an accident.

The others were people who had served in the Prince’s Palace before. He was unfamiliar with many of them. Other than the gatekeepers, they were not his trusted aides. They might even be spies sent by other people, so he would not take the initiative to bring them to his side.

When that letter was discovered, it did not mention any other generals, so there were not many generals who were implicated. Most of the live-in guests in his house were sent away before he was convicted. Only Chu Yun insisted on staying, and he was also sent to prison eventually. Jiang Yang and Wang Lang both held the same position, so they were both convicted at the same time.

The group rested for about two hours, and when he saw that the sun was not as hot as before, Li Da rounded them up to continue on their way.

After Su Ying and the rest packed their things, she jumped onto the carriage and whipped the horse. The horse began trotting.

Tian Mu handed the child over to Zhang Cuiniang and also got out of the carriage. He whipped his horse and their carriage started moving.

The carriage they were in was much bigger than Su Ying’s, so it wasn’t too crowded even when a number of them sat inside.

“Lang’er, when you’re better, you must tell them to serve us good food and drink. If it weren’t for them, we would still be staying in the house with maidservants to serve us. Now, look at us. We have to go to that godforsaken place. How are we going to live in the future…” Madam Sun didn’t eat noodles at noon, and now she was so hungry that her tummy almost caved in. She became even more furious as a result and couldn’t stop scolding.

Wang Lang looked at his family who had been dragged into this misfortune with him, and felt very sad. “Mother, don’t be sad. The northern wilderness may not be as bad as you think.”

“Even if it’s not that bad, how can it be as good as the capital? It’s all because of that bastard. He doesn’t have the ability to rebel, but he doesn’t even know his own worth. Why didn’t the Emperor just cut off his head?” Madam Sun’s face was full of vicious resentment.

How could Wang Lang bear to listen to this? “Mother, don’t… don’t say anymore. Don’t say such things about His Highness.”

“Bah! What Highness? He’s a cripple. He’ll be eaten by wolves sooner or later!”

Zhang Cuiniang, who was sitting in the carriage with the child in her arms, was downright furious when she heard Madam Sun’s words. “I say, Madam Sun. If you really don’t feel comfortable, you can get off. Nobody is begging you to follow us.”

Madam Sun saw that the carriage was almost filled with her own family members, so she did not pay any heed to Zhang Cuiniang at all. “Who do you think you are? Did you sell your ass to that cripple and that’s why you say he’s good?”

Li Wanniang also became very angry when she heard Madam Sun’s words. “Madam Sun, you… you don’t talk nonsense. Master and Cuiniang are innocent.”

“Mother! Don’t say anymore!” Wang Lang was so angry that he wanted to get up from the carriage.

Upon seeing this, Madam Zhou was so frightened that she pressed him back down. “Husband, you better don’t move. Your wounds haven’t healed yet so you mustn’t move.”

“Mother, if you… if you continue to slander His Highness, I.. we will get out of the carriage. We will not go with them anymore!”

Not surprisingly, Madam Sun was not willing to leave. Now, it was much more comfortable to sit in a carriage than to walk on her own feet. She snorted and turned her face away.

When he saw that she had shut up, Wang Lang finally lay back down.

Zhang Cuiniang and Li Wanniang both moved to the opposite side. They did not want to be tainted by that wretched thing.

Outside the carriage, Tian Mu’s face had turned red. He had heard all the scolding in the carriage just now. If it wasn’t for the fact that he didn’t want to cause trouble for Xiao Jin and the others, he would really have gone in and given Madam Sun a big slap. She was just a piece of shit-spewing trash!

Lin Zhuyu pursed her lips. If Mistress had heard Madam Sun, she would have torn her mouth apart.

Su Ying sat outside the carriage, whipping the horse every now and then.

The younger toddler Ling popped her head out of the carriage and placed a piece of dessert in front of Su Ying’s mouth. “Mother, this is a delicious osmanthus cake. Do you want to have some?”

Su Ying opened her mouth and took a bite of the osmanthus cake. “Mmm. It’s cool, soft, and cottony. There’s also the salty taste from Ling’s hands. Hahahaha!”

“Hahahahaha! My little hands taste salty! Hahahaha!” When Ling saw Su Ying laughing, she also started laughing foolishly.

When Su Ying saw her silly demeanor, she couldn’t resist pulling the child to her and giving her big kisses on her cheeks which were gradually getting fleshy.

“Ling, tell me. Why are you so cute?”

Ling felt the kiss was ticklish and tried to evade Su Ying’s lips. For a while, the carriage was filled with laughter.

Xiao Jin leaned against the wall of the carriage and looked at Su Ying, who was laughing happily with the child. He felt that it was very enjoyable to keep looking at her smiling face.

When the older toddler Ji saw Su Ying and Ling having so much fun, he was a little reserved at the beginning and did not go forward. However, before long, he could not contain himself anymore and began whining.

When Su Ying heard his voice, she grabbed him in one big hug and gave him a few big kisses on his tiny face.

“Mmm. Ji’s tiny face has the smell of red date cake.”

The older toddler Ji brought the red date cake in his hand to Su Ying’s mouth. “Red date cake. It’s delicious.”

Su Ying took a bite and the sweet red date cake’s fragrance permeated throughout her mouth.

“If the kids want to play with you, you can just let Cheng Ming drive the carriage.”

Su Ying had the same idea. She stopped the carriage for Cheng Ming to get on and then she carried the two little ones into the carriage.

Su Ying’s craving was triggered by the two pieces of dessert. She opened her bag and took out the remaining dessert. Just as she was about to eat it, she heard Xiao Jin say, “Is the red date cake very delicious?”

Su Ying froze and looked at him. Then she glanced at the already empty piece of kraft paper wrapper. “You want some?”

Xiao Jin nodded vaguely.

Su Ying was about to split the red date cake in half when Xiao Jin pulled her hand toward him.

Then he simply lowered his head and bit down on her hand.

“Argh! If you want to eat, then eat. Why did you have to bite my hand?”

Su Ying pulled back her hand in annoyance. “Are you some kind of puppy in the teething stage?”

Xiao Jin slowly swallowed the red date cake in his mouth, and a sweet aroma instantly spread out in his mouth. It did not dissipate for a long time.

Su Ying frowned a few times and glared at him icily before eating the rest of the red date cake in her hand.

Xiao Jin watched as she ate the dessert he had just bitten without hesitation. His throat bobbed a little, and he felt a sensation of dry heat in his throat.

Su Ying lowered her head and saw four clear teeth marks on her index finger. This rascal really ate her hand like a snack. He had bitten her hand quite hard.

“I think you are dying to eat me.”

Xiao Jin’s dark eyes were deep, and his voice was hoarse. “Can you be eaten?”

Su Ying glared at him with her almond-shaped eyes. “You want to try?”

Xiao Jin’s dark eyes looked straight into her eyes. “Yes.”

“No!” The younger toddler Ling leaped into Su Ying’s arms and tried her best to spread her tiny hands in front of Xiao Jin. “Father, you can’t eat Mother!”

“Father, you can’t do that,” the older toddler Ji also said with a straight face.

Aunt Zhao, who couldn’t pretend to be invisible, comforted the two children. “Young Miss and Young Master, don’t be afraid. Master doesn’t really want to eat Mistress.”

Upon hearing this, the two little fellows instantly became very curious. “If he’s not really eating, then how is he eating?”
