Chapter 64: Breaking Defenses
Originally, the story was going well.
Qin Wanwan, while listening to the story, also ate pastries with her feet up, and it was going well.
But perhaps the storyteller’s heroic story about Xie Chong completely broke the Tartars’ pride and composure.
The people in the teahouse who understood Central Plains language were instantly enraged.
That’s right, the storyteller was speaking the Central Plains language, and most of the people coming to this teahouse at this time were also from the Central Plains.
Unexpectedly, a few Tartars came and immediately started a commotion.
“How dare you, that was just Xie Chong’s despicable ambush against us Tartars, and people of the Central Plains are all despicable scoundrels who only know how to scheme!”
As the hot-tempered Tartar spoke, he tried to attack the storyteller, and the scene instantly descended into chaos.
Qin Wanwan’s eyes widened and she hadn’t fully reacted when she was instantly scooped up and moved away from the window.
“Go, control those Tartars!”
At the butler’s command, people from the City Lord’s Mansion rushed forward.
The border army also became furious: “Damn it, losing is losing, these dog things can’t handle it!”
With the cooperation of the City Lord’s Mansion’s people and the border army, the few Tartars were quickly brought under control.
Qin Wanwan hugged Lang Ya’s neck and also saw a few uncles sneakily kick the Tartars a few times, giving them a black eye.
They didn’t hold back at all; one punch sent stars flying from the Tartars’ eyes.
Of course, they were also not lightly injured.
The Tartars were strong and fierce; some of them had their arms dislocated.
Their faces were colorful, and some of them were beaten until they vomited blood.
However, they had more people, and in the end, those few Tartars were brought under control.
Precisely because of this, they took the opportunity to unleash their full strength!
The story couldn’t be finished, and Qin Wanwan was a little regretful.
But seeing that her uncles, despite their injuries, didn’t care and were all laughing because they had gotten revenge.
She was worried if they would be in pain.
Even those with dislocated arms could reset them without changing their expression.
Those who fight on the battlefield for a long time basically learn some bone-setting techniques.
This kind of dislocation would also happen during their usual training; as long as the bone is reset and they rest for a few days, they can fully recover.
In male friendships, as long as they aren’t petty, fighting together like this often makes them good friends.
The border army and Shang Wuyang’s guards seemed to have a much more harmonious relationship due to this cooperation.
The premise is that they don’t argue about who is Qin Wanwan’s biological father.
Returning to the City Lord’s Mansion.
Qin Wanwan asked the butler for wound medicine and applied it to some to treat their wounds and stop bleeding for others.
She was quite diligent.
The cute little soft ball was endearing.
Shang Wuyang returned in the afternoon, and Qin Wanwan immediately abandoned the uncles who were playing with her and scampered towards her biological father with little steps.
“Daddy, Wanwan will warm your hands for you.”
Shang Wuyang didn’t stand on ceremony and directly picked up the child.
The little girl nestled in his arms, her little mouth chattering non-stop as she told him about what happened today.
Shang Wuyang didn’t find it noisy.
However, he still had accounting to do, so after dinner, he went to the study.
Qin Wanwan followed with her short legs like a little tail, sticking close to him.
Shang Wuyang casually handed the little one an Eastern Pearl the size of a pigeon’s egg.
“Take it and play with it.”
Qin Wanwan hugged the beautiful and round Eastern Pearl and blinked her eyes.
Hehe, it’s good-looking (ˊ?ˋ*)?
Seeing that there were many ledgers on Daddy’s desk that he needed to read, Qin Wanwan couldn’t understand them, so she ran out of the study.
But after a while, she ran back again.
Like a little rabbit, she asked the butler for a small blanket and, using a finely woven basket that could fit her, diligently made a nest for herself.
She spread the soft blanket inside, bunching it up into a shape she found comfortable.
Then she put all her treasures inside.
She ran out again to get her small pillow.
Da Jin Zi was very attached to Qin Wanwan and followed her in and out, even helping Wanwan carry things.
After finishing these preparations, she felt her little butt strain as she dragged the nest next to Shang Wuyang’s desk.
Candles were lit in the room, and although it wasn’t as bright as during the day, the illumination was sufficient.
She took off her shoes and dived into the little nest, playing by herself without making a sound.
The butler who was serving tea and the personal servant who was grinding ink for Shang Wuyang were both captivated by her.
So cute.
How can Miss be so cute!
The butler was inspired; if before he had only felt favorably towards Qin Wanwan because she could help Shang Wuyang with his insomnia.
Then now, he genuinely liked this little girl.
A delicately carved, pretty child, naive, pure, and sensible; who wouldn’t like someone so adorable?
Shang Wuyang also noticed Qin Wanwan’s actions.
The little girl was busy by herself, walking on tiptoe like a kitten, afraid of disturbing him.
Now she was completely quiet, and he glanced over.
The little one took out her ‘treasures’ again, counted them, then put them away and happily rolled around in the little nest.
After her joy subsided, she took out her treasures again.
But this time, she wasn’t counting; instead, she arranged the pretty stones in the nest according to her preferences.
Finally, she nodded with satisfaction, placed the gosling and Keke inside, hugged her small pillow, and crawled down without moving.
Da Jin Zi lay by the edge of the nest, his eyes fixed on Qin Wanwan with immense affection.
He liked her more than his own offspring.
Of course, Da Jin Zi didn’t have any offspring at the moment.
Actually, Qin Wanwan was checking her Merit Points.
She found that her Merit Points had increased again.
Qin Wanwan tilted her head; she hadn’t done anything.
Keke whispered, “Your Daddy Xie Chong found those trafficked children and rescued some of them.”
Qin Wanwan understood.
They were the Central Plains children bought by the Tartars.
So Daddy Xie Chong must have fought with the Tartars again?
She wondered how Daddy Xie Chong was doing now.
She had saved up many treasures, and when she saw Daddy Xie Chong, she would give him some.
“Keke, I’m a little bored. Can you tell me a story, but in a small voice so as not to disturb Daddy.”
After speaking, she looked at the distance between herself and Daddy; it seemed a bit too close, and even speaking softly might be disruptive.
“Forget it, you can tell me when Daddy is not busy.”
She didn’t want to leave Daddy right now.
Keke: “Okay, little cub, go to sleep obediently.”
Keke’s wings humanely patted Qin Wanwan’s little head.
Qin Wanwan closed her eyes in her little nest and soon fell asleep.
The pretty little girl in the nest slept soundly with her pillow, her sleep quality enviable.
Butler: “City Lord, the young lady has fallen asleep.”
“Carry her to her room.”
“Yes.”
Qin Wanwan was carried back to the bedroom in her sleep, yet showed no signs of waking.
When Shang Wuyang finished his accounting and prepared to sleep, the bed had already become very warm with the little one in it.
