Madam Liu finally felt a bit more at ease, but she was still somewhat anxious, as she cared too much for these children.
Then, suddenly, she heard a crisp "Mother! Mother!" from the courtyard.
Madam Liu nearly fell to the ground, staggering as she ran out, only to see Tianniu and Hongsheng being led back by Jin Feng, one in each hand.
Madam Liu burst into tears instantly, "My children, you've worried your mother to death. You're finally back. Did you get hurt? Let me take a look quickly!"
Hongsheng bawled, "The bad guys hit people. Sister protected me and got hit with a few sticks. They wouldn't give us food either, saying we couldn't eat if we didn't behave."
At this moment, Tianniu couldn't hold back any longer, her eyes red, "Mother, we were so scared, we thought we'd never see you again."
Madam Liu crouched on the ground, holding the two children and weeping bitterly. It had only been one night, but it felt as long as a year. Madam Liu felt like she was going gray.
