Chapter 193: Wanwan, Who Is Cherished By Everyone
The Marchioness Wu’an’s eyes lit up as she looked at the fluffy, cute little head.
She had three sons, all like their father – unlettered and only fond of wielding weapons, truly boisterous.
One son was enough to give her a headache; three sons together could really tear down the house.
Their house was once indeed burned down by those three stinky kids.
Heaven knows how much she wished for a thoughtful, soft, and tender little daughter.
Even the Marquis Wu’an, who disliked Rong Zhi, couldn’t help but crane his neck to look behind him.
That tiny figure was so endearing.
At this moment, he seemed to dislike Rong Zhi a little less.
However, who is that man behind him?
The Marchioness Wu’an warmly entertained them and brought out quite a few foods, pastries, and snacks.
Upon seeing the food, Qin Wanwan no longer hid behind her Daddy and obediently walked out to greet them.
“Hello, Auntie. Hello, Uncle.”
Her voice was soft and tender.
The Marchioness Wu’an’s heart trembled with each word she heard.
How could she be so cute?
She really wanted to hold her, but she held back, knowing she was from the Prime Minister’s residence!
Marquis Wu’an looked at Qin Wanwan several times, grinning like a silly fool.
“Good, good, good…”
“Come eat, eat more.”
Qin Wanwan’s belly wasn’t hungry yet, but… it seemed like there was still room.
She took the mung bean cakes handed over by Marquis Wu’an with her little chubby hands.
Shang Wuyang gently tapped her forehead with his fan.
“Still eating? Isn’t your stomach full?”
Qin Wanwan was like a little hamster, holding the pastry in her small hands and gnawing on it.
“I’ll eat slowly. My stomach settled down a little bit when I walked over earlier.”
Shang Wuyang was speechless. That was such a short distance.
Marquis Wu’an said in a gruff voice, “What are you doing? If the little child likes to eat, let her eat more. Being able to eat is a blessing, and it helps them grow.”
Shang Wuyang wasn’t intimidated and directly retorted, “I can distinguish between growing taller and gaining weight. She just ate and if she eats more, her stomach will be bloated and hurt, and it won’t be you who suffers, but her.”
Marquis Wu’an: “Who are you? You look a bit familiar?”
“Oh my goodness, aren’t you the warrior who hit Prime Minister Rong yesterday? Hahaha, brother, you’re really something! Did you smash that wall? Do you need help? Old Wu here is strong, I can help you!”
The smile on the Marchioness Wu’an’s face almost faltered. She directly pinched the soft flesh on her husband’s waist and twisted it.
“Ouch!!!”
Marquis Wu’an’s yelp was incredibly loud.
Rong Zhi sipped his tea with a smile, “It seems Marquis Wu’an isn’t ‘seriously’ injured. How is your knee?”
Marquis Wu’an’s expression collapsed, “How did you know?”
“And my affairs, my private stash…”
Staring at his wife, he dared not say more.
Ke Ke retreated, having accomplished his mission.
Qin Wanwan watched from the side, her eyes curved in a smile.
Marquis Wu’an was too funny, especially the rich expressions on his face.
“Daddy, Daddy, you were punished to kneel by Mommy again. Someone at our academy is even spreading rumors that Mommy was chasing you with a whip. What did you do to make Mommy angry?”
Marquis Wu’an looked at his own stinky kid who came in shouting, as if afraid no one would hear, and immediately became annoyed.
Everything is relative.
Compared to his own boisterous, bear-like child, Qin Wanwan, who was delicately carved, fair-skinned, and soft, with a gentle, milky voice, was much more endearing.
“Oh? We have guests today.”
A sturdy-looking little boy, about seven years old, ran in.
He immediately straightened up when he saw Rong Zhi.
He recognized this person, Prime Minister Rong from across the way.
Although he didn’t seem as good at fighting as his father, the three brothers in his family were inexplicably afraid of him.
“Greetings, Prime Minister.”
Rong Zhi nodded.
Wu Xiaohu suddenly saw Qin Wanwan, who was eating sunflower seeds, and his eyes lit up.
The two fathers immediately became alert.
“Hello, little sister. Whose little sister are you? You’re so good-looking. What’s your name, little sister?”
The sturdy boy walked up to Qin Wanwan, his slightly tanned little face flushed red.
Qin Wanwan: ???
“I am…”
Shang Wuyang scooped up the little chubby cub.
“What do you want, kid? Maintain proper distance between boys and girls.”
Wu Xiaohu argued logically, “We’re both children. There’s no need for formality. I’m older than little sister and can fight. I can protect her from being bullied!”
Shang Wuyang rolled his eyes, “Do you need to protect her?”
Rong Zhi also stood up, “It’s getting late, so we’ll be leaving now.”
They had come to see Marquis Wu’an’s commotion, but they didn’t expect a little brat to take an interest in their daughter.
This kid was daydreaming!
The Marchioness Wu’an looked at Qin Wanwan with great reluctance.
Qin Wanwan obediently said goodbye to them.
Wu Xiaohu watched eagerly, following them all the way to the doorway.
Well… all the way to Rong Zhi’s house doorway.
“So, little sister, you’re from Prime Minister Rong’s family. Our families are neighbors now, so let’s visit often.”
“Prime Minister Rong, can I come visit little sister in the future? She must be so bored alone.”
Wu Xiaohu was no longer afraid of Rong Zhi and trotted along behind him.
Rong Zhi almost couldn’t resist kicking the little brat back.
Shang Wuyang stopped him, “Little kid, go back home.”
Wu Xiaohu: “I still don’t know little sister’s name.”
“Is a young lady’s given name something you can tell anyone casually?”
After speaking, he followed them inside and then closed the door.
Rong Zhi: “From now on, don’t casually tell strangers your name when you’re outside.”
Qin Wanwan nodded, “Okay, I understand, Daddy.”
Shang Wuyang: “You’re still young. From now on, don’t pay attention to people who get close to you like that stinky kid, understand?”
Qin Wanwan: “Why? Is that older brother a bad person?”
Whether he was bad or not was unknown, but his intentions were definitely not good.
At such a young age, he’s already taken a liking to someone else’s daughter. He’s thinking quite ambitiously.
On the other side, after returning home, Wu Xiaohu eagerly asked his mother what the little sister’s name was.
Marquis Wu’an chuckled, “You like her? Then you stinky kid, work hard for your old man and try to bring the young lady into our family in the future…”
The Marchioness Wu’an whipped him with her whip.
Marquis Wu’an dodged instantly, “Heh heh… missed!”
But the next second, his ear was in trouble.
“Madam, Madam, be gentle! What did I do wrong this time!”
The Marchioness Wu’an sneered, “You’re such a big person, but you still speak without thinking. Are these words something you can say casually? What about the young lady’s reputation in the future?”
Marquis Wu’an was a rough fellow and spoke directly without much thought.
“Wasn’t I also very fond of that little girl? I see you like her a lot too. We all like her, and she’s our neighbor. Maybe our son will be successful when he grows up and she’ll take a liking to him?”
The Marchioness Wu’an rolled her eyes, “Even if you like her, you can’t just say anything. If our son truly takes a liking to her based on your casual remark, and considering the young lady’s good looks and her father, she could even become an Imperial Princess consort. There are so many outstanding people in Shangjing. When they grow up, if Wanwan isn’t interested in your son, he’ll suffer so much!”
Although she also liked Wanwan very much, given Wanwan’s appearance and background, she didn’t think her son had much of an advantage.
