Chapter 613: Report

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Three Thoughts Street, in the Wang Family’s new courtyard, Old Madam Wang looked at Chi Tu in front of her. Chi Tu also looked at Old Madam Wang.

For some reason, although the person in front of him was clearly an ordinary old woman from a farmer’s family, he felt as if he had returned to the school grounds, facing the martial arts coaching team formed by the inner palace experts. The overwhelming pressure made him still have lingering fears.

“He only crippled one hand?” Old Madam Wang finally spoke, but her voice came from her nose.

Clearly, she was not very satisfied with this answer.

Chi Tu braced herself and nodded. “Yes… but it’s not entirely that… right?”

He had been captured by Old Madam Wang and asked to see how Qin Huai would deal with the boy from Duke An Manor.

However, Old Madam Wang didn’t expect that this little kid with a death wish would actually dare to come up and ask for a beating.

Old man Wang advised from the side, “At the end of the day, that child only said a few words and didn’t really hurt our All Yu.”

If he injured Ah Yu, not to mention waiting for Qin Huai, Old Madam Wang, who was filled with anger, might really twist that person’s head off on the spot.

However, she had not cultivated martial arts seriously for many years, and Old Madam Wang was already old and didn’t like to move. He had almost forgotten that his wife’s temper had always been bad.

Old Madam Wang looked at Old man Wang.

Chi Tu also looked at Old man Wang gratefully.

What a warrior! He actually dared to interrupt at this time.

Old Madam Wang gave him a fake smile. “In that case, am I the vicious one? Then when All Yu returns, I’ll tell her your attitude. In any case, All Yu is an obedient child. I think she’ll understand you.”

Old man Wang said repeatedly, “You can’t do that! It’s not like 1 don’t care about All Yu. Who in our family doesn’t care about her? If she finds out that her Grandma is out for blood every day, won’t she be frightened?”

It was true that Ah Yu was obedient and sensible, but if she heard her grandfather say that he wanted to settle the matter peacefully, even if she could understand, she would feel unhappy.

Everyone hoped that they would be the one favored, right?

As the two of them spoke, Wang Chuangui returned, panting.

He had returned to report. “Father, Mother, Ah Yu encountered a lecher at the entrance of the exam hall. I’m really, really weak now. Can you send two people to take a look?”

Wang Chuangui’s last three days were really difficult. His cornbread was too hard. For the first three days, he ate the same food as Qin Huai and ate happily. For the next three days, the food was not good, and he became listless.

When he came out, his condition was no different from the other examinees. He could only be said to be forcing himself to walk straight.

When he saw that someone was annoying All Yu, and it was obvious that they were nobles, Wang Chuangui was afraid that he would stand out and fall in front of them. At that time, not only would he not be able to help All Yu, but he would also be a burden. He simply gritted his teeth and ran back.

As he ran, he had also figured it out. Qin Huai was by Ah Yu’s side. That kid’s martial arts skills were really not bad.

At the very least, it was not a problem to deal with a child even younger than Ah Yu.

There was also Chi Jia. There were countless people hiding in the dark as well, so Wang Chuangui was completely relieved.

However, other people’s protection was ultimately unreliable. Their own family had to do their best.

Old Madam Wang looked up. “Look at your sloppy appearance. Go wash up and lie down in the house.”

“Then Ah Yu…”

“Thanks to you, her delicate Second Uncle, she’ll be fine.” Old Madam Wang wanted to kick Wang Chuangui’s leg, but on second thought, she had changed her role. It was time to stop acting like a vulgar old lady in the past to prevent bringing any trouble to Ah Yu.

He said to the confused Wang Chuangui, “Son, I see that you’re becoming more and more haggard. I’m afraid you’ve been studying too much recently and hurt your brain. I’ll instruct the kitchen to cook some ginger soup and pig brains for you. Stay in the house and recuperate. Come back to see me after the rankings are announced.”

Wang Chuangui:”?”

In an instant, many countryside novels flashed through his mind. If someone suddenly woke up and changed their personality, their spirit may have been replaced by a reincarnator, or possessed by a ghost…

“Father, Mother?” Are they alright?

Old man Wang waved his hand. “Your mother is fine. 1 told you to go further away and not disturb her.”

Wang Chuangui:”…” With his father’s explanation, everything should be fine.

After Wang Chuangui left, Old Madam Wang really went to the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Chi Ding was fighting a huge fish and two unfamiliar guards were squatting on the ground washing vegetables.

The vegetable stalks and leaves were scattered all over the ground. It was impossible to tell which were to be thrown away and which were to be kept.

In addition, there was a fatty with his hands and feet tied and his mouth sealed. He was whimpering in the corner.

Seeing the old lady arrive, the guards hurriedly stood up and made way for her.

Old Madam Wang looked at the person who was tied up.

Chi Ding hurriedly went forward and untied him, pulling off the cloth on his mouth.

That person immediately cursed, “Are you crazy!!”

Old Madam Wang raised her eyebrows and looked at the fat man.

The fat man pushed Chi Ding away and walked to the table. He raised the big kitchen knife and said indignantly under everyone’s vigilant gazes, “This is a rare jade fish. The head and bladder are good things, but you guys threw them away! You’re simply ignorant and wasteful!”

With that, he moved very quickly and caught another big fish. He sliced it in a practiced manner.

Old man Wang, who had followed in, asked, “Who is this person?”

Chi Ding said in a low voice, “Young Master instructed us to invite him over. In the past, he was an imperial chef in the palace. He was good at cooking and only retired two years ago. Young Master wants to invite him to cook a few meals for everyone to try the cooking of an imperial chef.”

Although it was said to be an invitation, who couldn’t tell that he was forced?

The guard at the side whispered, “This… Aren’t you afraid that he’ll poison our masters?”

Old Madam Wang looked at the imperial chef with his back facing her and the corners of her lips twitched. “Don’t worry, he won’t.”

She turned around and instructed Chi Ding to buy some ingredients. Chi Ding nodded and immediately left.

When things were almost done in the kitchen, Ah Yu pulled Qin Huai back.

The two of them didn’t speak much. When they reached the door, All Yu sighed.

Qin Huai’s mouth moved, but he still asked, “Do you think I went too far?”

“No.” Ah Yu shook her head. “1 know you did it for me.”

Although if she were to deal with it, she might just ask Meatball to buy some itchy powder and let the other party itch for a few days.

But Big Brother Ah You was doing this for her, so she was not so ungrateful to blame him.

However, she was worried about something else.

“Big Brother All You, 1 heard… 1 only heard about it. Some people are more easily angry than others because they have some pain in their heart.” Ah Yu looked at Qin Huai carefully, her expression very conflicted, as if she didn’t know if this question was appropriate. However, she still said, “Is there something you’re very sad about that you didn’t tell me?”

The other party had only verbally offended her, and Big Brother Ah You cut off one of his hands.

She didn’t realize that this was a terrifying thing. She only instantly thought that Big Brother All You was not in the right state of mind that he did such a thing.

Qin Huai looked at her. “All Yu, I don’t know how to tell you.”

“You’re back. Why didn’t you enter?” Old Madam Wang’s voice suddenly sounded in the courtyard, and the two of them temporarily stopped talking.

The imperial chef made an extremely sumptuous meal for them. All Yu ate happily and didn’t care about anything else.

At this moment, in the palace, Empress Qin was recuperating on her bed. Hua Hong and Lu Liu told her the information they had gathered.

Especially when it came to Qin Huai cutting off Duke An’s grandson’s hand at the entrance of the exam hall.

Empress Qin paused and asked, “Why?”

Hua Hong: “That Young Master Sun from Duke An Manor called Miss All Yu… his wife on the streets. He’s also called her that before.”

Empress Qin narrowed her eyes. “He only cut off a hand?”

Hua Hong couldn’t guess what Empress Qin meant and only replied after some deliberation, “…Yes, Young Master acted very secretly and didn’t let others see it.”

“Heh.” Empress Qin laughed coldly. “Is he even worthy of courting the daughter-in-law of our Qin Family of Jiangnan?”

When Emperor Minghua stepped in, he only heard Empress Qin say, “Since it’s useless, there’s no need to keep the other hand. It’ll be an insult to our Qin Family to let him off so lightly.”

Emperor Minghua grinned..
