Looking After a Battle God With Hundreds of Billions in Supplies

Chapter 27

Grateful to Her

“Father! It’s father!”

When Ji and Ling saw Xiao Jin, they cried out excitedly. They twisted their tiny bodies to get off Su Ying, then ran toward Xiao Jin.

Xiao Jin got off the carriage using his hands. He opened his arms and embraced the children.

“Father… Father has finally returned.” Ling cried.

“Father…” The staunch Ji also cried the moment he threw himself into Xiao Jin’s arms.

Xiao Jin wiped the tears from their faces, his eyes filled with heartache. “Don’t cry. Father is back.”

Looking at the two thin and feeble children, Xiao Jin was grateful to Su Ying. Even if he didn’t know who she was or what she wanted to do, she saved him and allowed him to see the two children again. That was enough.

“Alright, don’t cry. Mother bought you a lot of nice food. Quickly go in the carriage.” Su Ying walked over and carried Ji and Ling to the cart.

The two little ones stopped crying and looked at the carriage in surprise.

Ling opened her big red eyes and looked at Su Ying. She said softly: “Mother, you… Where did you get the carriage?”

“Mother bought this in the county town. You can sit in the carriage and not walk from now on.”

“Your Highness, this subordinate is useless.” Jiang Yang walked up to Xiao Jin with a guilty look. He dared not imagine the consequences if Su Ying hadn’t appeared in time.

Xiao Jin looked at the bloodstains on the bodies of these people. He could guess what kind of battle they had just experienced. His eyes darkened. “Don’t blame yourself. You’ve already done your best.”

Su Ying examined the two children. After making sure they had no new wounds, she opened the bag and took out the treats. “Eat slowly. I’ll go and check the others.”

Su Ying saw that Zhang Cuiniang and others were injured to different degrees. If they were not treated in time, they could quickly get infected.

Jiang Yang helped Xiao Jin into the carriage and pulled it to the side for them to rest.

Su Ying took out a big bag from the carriage and asked Lin Sheng to come.

“Come, let me see where you were wounded.”

Lin Sheng was also frightened, but he was older, so although he was scared, he still said obediently: “It’s, it’s fine.”

“Madam, Sheng is tough. He’ll be fine in a few days.” Zhang Cuiniang said politely.

Su Ying pulled Lin Sheng’s hand and asked him to sit in front of her. Without looking up, she said, “There were so many people around back then. Who knows where Sheng could be injured? If wounds or internal injuries aren’t treated, they may harm the child in the future.”

Zhang Cuiniang didn’t say anything. After all, he was her son. She was also worried that something would happen to him.

Fortunately, Lin Sheng was agile. Besides some bruises on his back and minor skin wounds on his arms, his was fine.

“When we set off later, you can sit in the carriage with Ling and Ji.”

“Madam, I, I can walk.”

Su Ying lifted his feet and removed his worn-out shoes. His tiny feet were full of blisters, but the child didn’t even make a sound. He was so sensible that it made her heart ache. “Can you take care of those young ones in the carriage? ”

Lin Sheng tilted his head and thought for a moment, then nodded. “I can.”

When Zhang Cuiniang saw Su Ying kill those evil people, she was scared of her ferocious appearance. However, seeing how patient and attentive Su Ying was to her son, she was touched and swore to herself that she would never do anything to let Su Ying down.

Su Ying pricked the blisters on Sheng’s feet and put on some medicine. She then bandaged his feet with clean gauze and carried him to the carriage.

“Be good, and I’ll go and take a look at your mother.”

“Many thanks, Madam.”

Su Ying went to check on Zhang Cuiniang’s injuries. She looked at the wounds on her face and knew that she must have been risking her life back then. “Thank you, Mrs. Zhang.”

Zhang Cuiniang was a little embarrassed. She didn’t think she had done much. “Madam, please don’t say that. We should be the ones thanking you.”

Su Ying shook her head. It was very rare for Zhang Cuiniang and her son to step forward and help when she and Xiao Jin’s fate was unknown. Regardless of whether they had their intentions, they put themselves forward.

“Mrs. Zhang, you are fine. The bruises will heal without treatment.”

“Good, good.”

Compared to Zhang Cuiniang and the others, He Shouyi was more badly hurt.

When Su Ying came up to him, He Shouyi laughed at himself. “I used to be able to take on a few of them alone. I’m getting old.”

His reaction amused Su Ying. “You didn’t win because you didn’t have a wok or a spatula. If you had, not many people would be your match.”

“Hahaha… Ouch.” His laughter stretched the wound on his face, which wrinkled in pain.

“Restrain yourself now. I’ll take your pulse to see if there’s any internal bleeding.” As Su Ying spoke, she placed her hand on He Shouyi’s pulse.

He Shouyi settled down. “You know a lot, young lady.”

Su Ying nodded her head. “Yes, quite a lot. You don’t have any internal injuries. It’s just that this wound is quite big. But it’s not a big problem.”

After Su Ying cleaned He Shouyi’s wounds, she removed a healing patch from her bag, applied it to his open wound, and then pulled it close bit by bit.

He Shouyi’s eyes widened in disbelief. “W-What is this? With just a light pull, the cut flesh can stick together?”

“It’s not that incredible. I just pulled the flesh together to let it grow. I bought it from a sea merchant in the county town.” Su Ying felt she had to let the people around her slowly accept the strange things she brought out from her interspace.

He Shouyi still found it unbelievable after the explanation.

After she was done with He Shouyi, Su Ying went to Bai Shuang and the others.

“Mama Zhao, Bai Shuang, thank you.” She saw that these two tried their best to protect the children, even using their bodies as human shields.

“Madam, why are you saying this? It’s the best thing for us that you and his Highness returned safely.”

Mama Zhao wiped her tears. Only God knew how heartbroken she was when she saw Su Ying jump down. She wished she could jump down with her, but she couldn’t die just yet when she thought of the two children.

Su Ying said as she treated their wounds, “Even though we’re exiled, our lives will get better and better from now on,”

“Yes, yes.”

Beside the carriage, Xiao Jin handed some medicine to Jiang Yang.

“Take care of your wounds.”

“Yes.”

“You left a secret signal for Lin Jin and the others before. Have they not appeared?”

Lin Jin and Lin Kun were Xiao Jin’s secret bodyguards. Due to their special status, they were not on the list of exiles. No one knew of their existence besides Xiao Jin and a few of his trusted aides.

When the exiles first left the capital, they followed him. Later, he ordered them to do other errands. But they should have returned long ago.

“Yes, I’ve left two secret signals but never received a response. Your Highness, could they…” Jiang Yang really couldn’t bear to finish his sentence.

Xiao Jin furrowed his brows. “They’re very meticulous. They might have been caught up in something. Let’s wait a little longer.”

“Yes.”
