"The family is separated."

Mrs. Song came and went with just such words, doing her needlework in an orderly manner. She clearly regarded Mrs. Song as if she were nothing.

"Li'er."

Second Lady Song looked at Song Jiuli who was cooking porridge, "Your grandmother used to love you the most. You can't just watch your grandmother pass away."

She glanced at Mrs. Song who was sitting there blankly. She was still awake just now, but now she seemed to be confused again.

She just sat there blankly, her eyes dull as if she were stupid, which was indeed a bit pitiful.

Song Jiuli felt sour in her heart, and quickly withdrew her gaze, lowering her eyes and saying:

"I sympathize deeply, but I can't even support myself and there's nothing I can do about it."

It was rare to see Song Jiuli not exuding the Virgin Heart, and Jiang Wan was a little surprised, but it was a good thing for her that she could change.

Seeing that they didn't take her seriously at all, Mrs. Song was very depressed, but now that Jiang Wan had Ren Bang's support, she didn't dare to do anything.

At most, it was just a few words to irritate Mrs. Song, but it was not painful or itchy for Mrs. Song.

It's like a punch on cotton, making people very weak.

"alright."

Song Jiuyuan handed the prepared hare to Jiang Wan, seemingly ignoring Mrs. Song.

She was so angry that she suddenly heard a sneer, coming from Shen Qian.

Seemingly giving up on herself, Shen Qian now dislikes everyone and no longer tolerates her temper.

Jiang Wan looked over and saw Shen Qian's vicious eyes. Even though the person being tortured was neither human nor ghost, she was still strong and alive.

She was really a weakling who couldn't be beaten to death. Mrs. Song was so angry that she beat Shen Qian hard. Shen Qian was not to be outdone, and the two soon became entangled together.

Jiang Wan didn't look at them. She was happy to see their internal strife play out, as if they were watching a show.

Jiang Wan continued to teach Song Jiuli how to roast hare verbally. She was in a good mood and was too lazy to argue with these people.

The hare was roasted and the family shared the food. Jiang Wan left a small rabbit leg and walked towards Chen Wenhao with a gentle voice.

"Wen Hao, let's eat it for you."

"Thank you, aunt, I'm not hungry."

Chen Wenhao shook his head sensibly. He was not hungry, but he just didn't want to take advantage of Jiang Wan all the time.

"You can eat what my aunt gives you."

If at first it was because she had taken care of Chen Wenhao because she raided the Chen Mansion, now it was because Chen Wenhao was sensible and made Jiang Wan feel a little distressed.

"Miss Song, thank you, but we got some food."

Mrs. Chen was cooking porridge with nothing in it. When she stayed in the village for the night, she exchanged some food.

As soon as she finished saying this, the spoon in Mrs. Chen's hand suddenly fell into the pot. Her head felt dizzy and she almost fainted. Chen Ce quickly supported her.

"Madam, what's wrong with you?"

"nothing."

Mrs. Chen shook her head weakly and comforted him, "Don't worry, Mr., I'm just a little tired."

"But Mom has fainted from exhaustion several times."

Chen Wenhao pursed his lips and took the rabbit leg from Jiang Wan's hand, "Thank you, auntie, can I give this rabbit leg to my mother?"

He opened his big watery eyes. The little boy who was fair and tender before was now skinny, with no trace of flesh on his face.

Jiang Wan bent down and gently rubbed the top of his hair, "Since I've given it to you, you can give it to whoever you want."

"Thank you, aunt."

With a big smile on Chen Wenhao's face, he handed the rabbit leg to Madam Chen's mouth and said in a sweet voice:

"Mom, you eat."

Mrs. Chen's eyes were hot and her nose was sour. "Mom, you're not hungry. Silly child, you eat."

She pinched Chen Wenhao's little face with a gentle expression. Jiang Wan frowned and took a few steps forward.

"Let me take your pulse."

"Then I'll bother you, Miss Song."

Chen Ce's eyes were full of worry, fearing that his wife would reject him, so he quickly agreed to Jiang Wan first.

After he said so, Mrs. Chen naturally wouldn't resist. She gently lifted up her sleeves, and Jiang Wan's white fingertips rested on her pulse.

After a few breaths, she glanced at Madam Chen with an inexplicable expression, and twitched the corner of her mouth, "You... don't know what the reason is?"

"I'm tired after all."

Mrs. Chen smiled and didn't care too much. She used to be spoiled and pampered, but now it's common for her to be unable to bear the burden of traveling day and night.

This was also the reason why she gritted her teeth and persisted all the way. She really didn't want to worry her husband.

"no."

Jiang Wan shook her head speechlessly and whispered the answer in Madam Chen's ear, which scared Madam Chen's face to pale.

"Miss Song, is it true?"

"Of course, yes, you can talk to your husband-in-law about it."

Jiang Wan stood up and returned to Song Jiuyuan's side, picked up her own lunch and started eating.

Madam Chen and Chen Ce were talking quietly over there, and soon both of their faces were filled with sadness.

Even Song Jiuli was curious, so she asked Jiang Wan in a very low voice, "Sister-in-law, what's wrong with Mrs. Chen?"

Jiang Wan subconsciously raised her eyes to look at Song Jiuyuan and found that he seemed to also want to know the answer, but he was stubborn. When Jiang Wan looked over, he quickly looked away.

Jiang Wan became playful for a moment and sighed deliberately, "Ms. Chen, it's hard to talk about this matter. In short, it will not be conducive to the rest of the journey."

"sick?"

Mrs. Song was kind-hearted and hurriedly asked questions, but Jiang Wan's words were ambiguous.

"I'm afraid it will take another seven months to get better."

"Seven months?!!"

Song Jiuli almost screamed, why did the disease take so long? Jiang Wan nodded her head angrily.

"Keep your voice down."

"I want to talk to you alone."

Song Jiuyuan, who had just pretended to be indifferent, looked a little more serious, and Jiang Wan spread her hands.

"OK."

So Mrs. Song walked away with her children, leaving Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan sitting together.

Although they were talking alone, they were actually very close to the team, but if the two of them spoke softly, others wouldn't be able to hear them.

"Can you... tell me what happened to Madam Chen?"

Under the hem of his clothes, Song Jiuyuan's fingertips were tightly clenched together, and his five fingers formed a fist. Jiang Wan could probably guess what he was thinking.

Chen Ce was his, and their trouble must have been because of Song Jiuyuan. If Lady Song had some shortcomings, Chen Ce would always be somewhat alienated from him anyway.

Song Jiuyuan himself felt guilty in his heart. Seeing that he really wanted to know, Jiang Wan went over and whispered:

"She is pregnant."

She only focused on telling Song Jiuyuan the answer, ignoring the fact that the two of them were very close, and her warm breath gently sprayed on Song Jiuyuan's face.

He even smelled a sweet fragrance. Now was not the time to think wildly. He squeezed his palm hard and then came back to his senses.

Thinking about it carefully, Song Jiuyuan also understood why the Chen family and his wife were so sad.

"This journey has been uneasy. Madam Chen is pregnant, so the child may not be born safely."

Not to mention not having enough to eat, Mrs. Chen’s body may not be able to withstand such a high-intensity journey.

"Um."

Jiang Wan nodded and sat there poking at the firewood sticks on the ground in boredom. "She is more than two months pregnant. Maybe she didn't notice before."
