The beloved baby has a space

Chapter 684 Meeting
The two young men were completely oblivious to the situation; they simply instinctively stood in front of the old man—even with a knife at his neck.

As for running away, they thought there was no way to escape. This road was an official road, and with the Mid-Autumn Festival approaching, patrols by soldiers would be strengthened near the official road. That's why they dared to send two people to escort them.

Who knew we'd actually run into robbers?

This is truly under the emperor's nose!

"You ugly old woman—" The leader tried to finish his sentence, but after receiving Old Lady Wang's gaze, his tone softened for some reason. "I—I mean, leave your money and we can spare your lives."

Grandma Wang said calmly, "Alright, stop putting on an act for me. You two, take these two young men back to their village properly, and remember my words, don't let them lose a single hair."

The leader tried to pretend he didn't understand, but Old Wang said from the side, "If I were you, I'd better obey now, or I won't have a chance to obey later."

Finally, the two young men, still dazed and confused, were put into another carriage that seven or eight robbers had somehow managed to haul out, and they were huffing and puffing as they hurried back towards Wangbei County.

They were initially skeptical, but considering the various outrageous rumors circulating in the village about the Wang family, they felt there was nothing to doubt.

Even Wang's daughter, Ayu, has a fairy temple. If you say that there are gods around Ayu, they would believe it with their eyes closed.

Not to mention what Grandma Wang said.

After everyone left, Old Mrs. Wang said to the leader, "Take me to see your master."

Although the leader did not know why he had been exposed, he had already been implicitly acknowledged by others, and it would be inappropriate to continue pretending now, so he obediently drove the carriage forward.

After traveling about twenty li, they arrived at a village. A row of servants were already waiting outside. When the carriage approached, they came up and asked a few questions before letting it pass.

Upon arriving at the manor, the two were asked to get off the carriage. Old Wang jumped down first and then went back to greet Old Madam Wang.

The movement was too forceful, and he almost strained his back. Old Wang's face twitched in pain. Old Mrs. Wang said irritably, "Do you think you're still a young lad? My old bones are falling apart, there's nowhere for you to glue them back on."

"Hehe, I know you're just worried about me." Old Wang's face was full of wrinkles from smiling.

The scene of the two talking was witnessed by two elderly people in the distance. One of them looked at them with disdain, while the other said to the woman beside him, "Let's invite them over."

"Yes."

As Old Mrs. Wang led the two of them slowly closer, the others were also secretly observing them, wondering who they were and why their master had to make such an arrangement for them.

The meeting place was a pavilion, but curtains were hung around it, so the movements inside could not be seen. If the wind blew, even if something was said, it would be inaudible if the voice was lowered.

Grandma Wang walked straight in without looking to the side, and when she saw the two people sitting inside, she revealed a knowing look.

"Greetings, Your Excellency and Your Excellency." Old Madam Wang bowed to the two of them.

"This humble subject greets Your Excellency and Your Excellency!" Old Wang also bowed in response.

The two were none other than the Duke of Anguo and his wife, both of whom were already in their eighties and showed signs of old age.

The Duke of Anguo managed to maintain his composure, but his wife was in tears, sobbing, "An'er, come here, let your mother see you..."

Old Mrs. Wang remained motionless.

But when he heard that long-forgotten nickname, his little finger twitched involuntarily.
