hastily said, “Go on, go on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I will call you when it’s time to eat.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After they returned to their room, Jiang Yichun quietly asked, “Do you think Dengdeng has been hexed by Wu Wanqing’s poisonous insect?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu nodded, her eyebrows knitted tightly together, “As soon as I arrived, I examined Dengdeng’s body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t show any signs of injury or poisoning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything seemed fine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then Furball ran out, and I noticed it kept circling Dengdeng’s face, as if it were worried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I also asked my mother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She told me that Wanqing had scraped Dengdeng’s face with her nail.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yichun’s face darkened, his eyes filled with murderous intent, “Don’t worry, I will meet with my master and ask my junior sister to remove the hex on Dengdeng.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu stopped him abruptly, “No, don’t turn to Wanqing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I don’t trust her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I refuse to believe that there are no others who can remove the hex.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If push comes to shove, we could always seek out Elder Shougu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knowing the kind of person Wanqing is, even if she agrees to help Dengdeng, she is likely to be up to something.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yichun sighed, “You’re right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We don’t understand this poisonous insect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if we keep a close watch, we can’t be sure of anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ll arrange for someone who knows about this poisonous insect, and Elder Shougu to come.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Bai Ruozhu looked at the peacefully sleeping Dengdeng, concern filled her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But soon, that concern was replaced with determination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She must be strong and not let anything else happen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, Jiang Yichun found someone who understood the art of poisonous insects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That night, the man came to the Bai Family’s courtyard to inspect Dengdeng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man said gravely, “The person who placed the hex is cruel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This kind of hex cast on a child will prevent him from growing up.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He won’t grow up?” Bai Ruozhu was startled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, he will remained unchanged physically and his intellect will never develop, he will always remain a baby.” The man sighed, “It’s too ruthless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m incompetent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I can’t break this hex.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yichun’s face turned even darker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the man left, he whispered to Bai Ruozhu, “I will arrange to have Wu Wanqing killed, even if it angers my master.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Teary-eyed, Bai Ruozhu broke down upon hearing his words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she cried, she said, “We can’t make a move on her just yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As much as I want her dead, if no one else can break the hex and she dies, we will regret it for the rest of our lives.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying these things, she couldn’t hold back her sobs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What mother doesn’t worry about her child?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially when her child is afflicted with a hex from a realm she simply cannot control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yichun held Bai Ruozhu, gently saying, “We will take Dengdeng to find Elder Shougu first thing tomorrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We’ll find him within ten days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ve already sent people to inquire and arrange a message for him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu nodded, briskly wiping away her tears, “I’ll pack up right now and we’ll leave first thing tomorrow.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She isn’t pessimistic by nature, and at this point, she needed to stay strong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yichun helped her pack some of Dengdeng’s clothes and diapers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of Ruozhu’s words, he sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For now, he’ll spare Wanqing’s life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he will set someone to watch her, even if it risks revealing himself as a member of the upper floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu mentioned to her parents about taking Dengdeng to seek medical treatment and explained about the hex from Wu Wanqing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She originally didn’t want her family to worry, but it was unavoidable now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Yihong spent the day at the newly purchased field.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He felt guilty for not being home, thinking that perhaps if he were, he might have been able to prevent this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ruozhu, how about your father accompany you?” Bai Yihong asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu shook her head, “There are still a lot of things that need to be handled at home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dad, you are the pillar of our family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You can’t go anywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We’ll resolve Dengdeng’s issue as soon as we can.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Ping’er held Dengdeng in her arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Dengdeng showed no abnormalities; he still loved to laugh and was very lively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Externally, one couldn’t tell anything was wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t until Furball gave a sign that the Bai Family realized anything was amiss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few months later when Dengdeng still hasn’t grown any bigger, it would have been too late.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Bai household was shrouded in gloom throughout the night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only Dengdeng carried on as his usual innocent self, eating and laughing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet watching his innocently joyful expression only made the hearts of the family ache even more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Early the next morning, Bai Ruozhu left four guards at home, while she, along with six other guards, traveled south.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yichun had received news that Elder Shougu had previously appeared in Fushui City, which was a two-day journey from Beiyu City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yichun had sent a pigeon to his contact in the northernmost city asking them to pass a message on to Elder Shougu, requesting him to wait in Fushui City for two days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they couldn’t find Elder Shougu, they would continue their search in nearby cities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not long after Bai Ruozhu and her party left by horse carriage, Wu Yunfeng showed up at the entrance of the Bai residence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I came looking for my disciple, and on behalf of my unfilial daughter, to apologize.” Wu Yunfeng said to Bai Yihong, who opened the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Yihong, with a grave expression, said, “They have already left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You can spare us your false pretenses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Your daughter is so cruel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She cast a hex on an infant less than a year old.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is that even human?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Yunfeng looked at Bai Yihong in surprise, asking, “What hex?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmph, stop feigning ignorance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We found out yesterday that your daughter’s hex is in my grandson, Dengdeng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the hex isn’t broken, he will remain a baby forever.” Towards the end, Bai Yihong couldn’t help but cry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sobbing, he said, “He’s only half a year old, how could you all be so heartless, how could you all be so heartless!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Yunfeng was dumbfounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He murmured, “Wanqing…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wanqing, how could she be so cruel…” He couldn’t believe it, nor did he want to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But seeing Bai Yihong’s tears, he couldn’t help but believe it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who would curse their own child just to deceive others?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>this is ridiculous!” Wu Yunfeng was so furious, his beard stood on end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll ask Wanqing to break the hex on your grandson.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rest assured, if she does any more reckless things, I…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I will personally clean up the sect!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Yihong wiped away his tears, waving him off, “Forget it, we’re scared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They’ve already left to find a cure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You don’t need to go to any trouble.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterwards, he paid Wu Yunfeng no mind and turned around to return to the main hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Yunfeng stood at the door for a while before quietly taking his leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He returned to the Shangshu Province and immediately sought out Shangshu Sun Chengchao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Sun Chengchao, he said, “Sir, if you want to get rid of Bai Ruozhu, do it yourself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why do you have to use my daughter?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Chengchao sneered a couple of times, “Do I need to manipulate her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If I wanted to get rid of Bai Ruozhu, a simple order would suffice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Your daughter asked me for this herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I took pity on her, who knew she was trying to snatch someone else’s child.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So all of this was not your idea, then?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You did not instigate this to make my disciple and I enemies?” Wu Yunfeng’s tone became chilly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do I need to?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do you think I would consider you a threat?” Sun Chengchao started laughing heartily, as if he had just heard the funniest joke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You!” Wu Yunfeng was so angry he was speechless, but he couldn’t do anything about Sun Chengchao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could only turn around and leave in a rage.\u003C\u002Fp>",1370,"2026-05-30T14:09:10.984Z","2026-06-01T04:31:25.023Z",1,"novelbin.me","cfa156199ee7be8d8a1c26a1cc401b84782ea90473827169706e2528a8a4ad1b","abandoned-woman-busy-farming-chapter-703","abandoned-woman-busy-farming-chapter-701",2707,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fabandoned-woman-busy-farming-cover.jpg"]
