Chapter 1794 No More Waiting
The child is still young, and according to custom, there is no need to give him a full name at this time. A nickname is better for raising him. Qiao Xuan asked Shao Yunduan with a smile: "I forgot before, husband, what nickname should we give our child?"
Shao Yunduan had been thinking about this for the whole morning. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "I was just about to tell my wife this. Our child was born in Anzezhou. I just hope that he will be safe and sound. This is better than anything else. How about calling him An'an?"
In this place, safety is really more important than anything else.
The mountain kings are all still intact. They are a big cancer and there is a potential danger that may erupt at any time. Even if all possible preparations have been made, Shao Yunduan cannot guarantee that he will be able to wipe them all out smoothly.
The mountains are high and the forests are dense, the terrain is complex and steep, those bandits are very cunning and insidious, and they have occupied advantageous terrain. They have been entrenched and operating for so many years, and they have a large number of people and strong forces. How can they be so easily wiped out?
The reason why those people from Hutouzhai were seriously injured before was not because of an encirclement and suppression, but because they went down the mountain to die on their own. Firstly, they were outnumbered, secondly, they underestimated the enemy, and thirdly, their own scouts were powerful and had found out their whereabouts and made preparations in advance. This was how they were able to deal a head-on blow to them and achieve a great victory.
However, it is really not an easy task to take the initiative to attack and capture the stronghold.
Otherwise, Anzezhou would not be in the situation it is today!
The imperial court would not have turned a blind eye and tolerated it until now.
The previous round of fighting was just to let the other party know that I am not easy to mess with and that I am not willing to offend me easily. We can all keep to ourselves and live in peace.
But this is not what Shao Yunduan wants.
Now that he is here, of course he wants to take on this tough task.
Then he would be promoted and resign at the same time, which would serve as a capital for him to be reinstated at any time. Even if he was not reinstated, no one would dare to offend him easily.
At that time, he can advance or retreat, as he chooses, and the whole family will be safely protected.
Moreover, those bandits and gangsters had been entrenched in Anze Prefecture for many years and were a great threat to the prefecture. He was an ambitious young official and really wanted to do something for the local people.
Peace, just two simple words, but it is not easy to achieve here. This is the most sincere and best blessing, the most real hope and expectation!
Qiao Xuan understood what Shao Yunduan meant. Her heart softened and she nuzzled into his arms. "This nickname is great, really great! An'an, be safe and sound, my husband. We will all be fine!"
"Yes, I will!"
They smiled at each other and kissed.
After a while of affection, Shao Yunduan asked someone to take the child to rest, as he had something else to discuss with her.
Qiao Xuan instructed the wet nurse Aunt Zhu to take the child away carefully, and take good care of him with Caiming and Caiyun, who would be responsible for looking after An An from now on.
An An is a very picky child. She only agrees to be fed with breast milk from Qiao Xuan and refuses to drink from her wet nurse Aunt Zhu. She cries childishly and tries to turn her little head to the side, refusing to eat.
Unfortunately, Qiao Xuan didn't have enough milk, so she had to ask Aunt Zhu to squeeze out some milk and put it in a bowl, and then feed An An one spoonful at a time. Only then did An An agree to eat.
"My dear, the autumn harvest will come soon. The taxes collected during the harvest season are quite high. The Fan family has a lot of land, so they will definitely take the lead in causing trouble. I want to take this opportunity to deal with them and Guan Zhoucheng at the same time..."
We can't keep a big parasite like Guanzhou Cheng to celebrate the New Year.
