The beloved baby has a space

Chapter 450 Bluster
General Zhang thought he had apologized in time and that Chi Ding should be able to forgive him, so he invited them to his residence.

Unfortunately, he was overthinking it.

Chi Ding simply produced proof of his identity to suppress the self-proclaimed extraordinary General Zhang, and that was the end of it.

"Chief Red—" General Zhang didn't know what else to call those people, so he just used the most pleasant-sounding terms, "We've come here today also because..."

The topic was rather sensitive, and General Zhang dared not speak about it in public.

He could only glance at Chi Ding, who looked completely innocent: "I don't know what you're talking about. I have to go now. Goodbye."

After saying that, he turned around without any hesitation.

He also left a message: "We have the entire Nanhe Town under our protection, including all the cats, dogs, fish, and shrimp here. Be careful when you walk, don't scare them."

General Zhang: "..."

Doesn't that mean they're not even as good as cats and dogs?
His original plan was to launch an investigation swiftly and decisively after arriving here.

Those who practice martial arts don't have many hidden agendas or delicate thoughts, so naturally they went to find the person in charge here.

If you put the pressure directly on the county magistrate, things will be much easier to handle.

They used the same method in their previous investigations; it was fast and efficient.

Unexpectedly, I ran into a brick wall here.

Sure enough, none of the people from the Duke of Yong's mansion had good intentions.

Now, General Zhang found himself in a difficult situation.

Lord Liu, standing nearby, touched his official hat, unsure whether to follow General Zhang or the man who produced the token.

He wasn't from Wanning City himself, so he didn't know what the token meant, but General Zhang's attitude had already explained everything.

Forget it, if he were to defect to the other side now, that hot-tempered General Zhang might just chop him in two with a single stroke.

After all, he was just a low-ranking official, a weak and powerless civil servant. Meanwhile, when Xiao Ayu returned home, she immediately told Old Madam Wang about it.

"Grandma, Grandma, we just met a group of very rude strangers on the street! One of them, whom I don't even want to call 'brother,' wanted to buy Sister Tangyuan and even asked her to do some kind of house!" Little Ayu pouted angrily, gritting her teeth, "They were so mean!"

Grandma Wang's expression changed. She handed the basin to Liu, took out a handkerchief to wipe her hands, and then pulled Xiao Ayu into her arms.

"Oh dear, Ayu, are you hurt? Let Grandma take a good look at you."

After looking her over several times and finding no injuries, Grandma Wang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

“I’m fine, everyone is protecting us,” Xiao Ayu said.

"Tangyuan must have been frightened too, right? There's some calming soup brewed in the kitchen, go and have a couple of bowls to get rid of the bad luck." Liu Shi also called out to Tangyuan from the other end.

"Oh, thank you, madam."

Tangyuan carried the cloth in her hand to the main room, waiting for Old Mrs. Wang to take out the storeroom key and put the things in the storeroom before going to the kitchen to drink hot soup.

A short while later, Wang Chuanyuan and Xiao Zhangshi also rushed back.

Little Zhang started chattering at the door: "Mom! I just heard that there's some trouble on Nanhe Second Street. Our Ayu was there too, is she alright?!"

Wang Chuanyuan rolled up his sleeves to his mid-sleeves and raised his voice: "If they think they can bully the Wang family just because we brothers aren't all together, I'll show them whose fists are stronger! I'll beat them until they're crawling on the ground, their intestines are ripped out, and they'll regret being a bad guy in their next life!"

"All you do all day is shout for violence. You sell steamed buns, not an executioner. If you pick up such vulgar habits, your ancestors would spit on you from their graves." Old Mrs. Wang frowned, too lazy to say more.

Upon hearing Old Mrs. Wang speak like this, the couple from the third branch of the family beamed with joy.

The fact that my mother still has the energy to curse means the matter isn't serious.

Before they could laugh for long, Wang Sanlang came running to the courtyard gate, panting heavily, and it took him a while to be able to speak.

"Grandma, Third Uncle, Third Aunt, Fourth Aunt, something terrible has happened! Second Uncle has run into trouble in the prefectural city!"
