Chapter 127 Lan Shuyu's Man
Xiao Su Bao was stunned when she heard what Aunt Su said. She looked up at Aunt Su and Su Daya, her eyes filled with a strange emotion.
"Yes, you guys are the unlucky ones. Our little aunt is the best. She's a fairy and a lucky star..."
Tang Sanbao, his face dark with anger, grabbed a piece of cow dung from the ground and threw it directly at Young Master Wang's face.
Tang Erbao stood aside without saying a word, but there was a hint of a smile in his eyes. He silently put down the stone in his hand.
Tang Dabao stepped forward and hurled a stool at Young Master Wang.
Fortunately, the young master's men reacted quickly and pulled the man away, thus preventing the young master from being injured.
Fang Gou's eyes lit up when he saw this.
He looked at the Tang family members, a smile playing on his lips, and the slight frustration in his heart vanished completely.
"I never expected your poor village to be so united. I'm quite impressed!"
Fang Gou spoke calmly, glancing at Tang Dabao and the others with a hint of a smile in his eyes.
Tang Cheng's lips twitched. He said, "Why do you have to add the word 'poor' to their village?"
Before he could speak, Fang Gou stood in front of Young Master Wang.
"Alright, Young Master Wang, you'd better leave now, or I'll wipe you out!"
Fang Gou looked at Young Master Wang and said in a somewhat impatient tone.
His men were taken aback, but without saying a word, they immediately turned their guns around and glared at Young Master Wang with hostility.
"You...you...I invited you!" Young Master Wang said through gritted teeth, a hint of coldness in his eyes.
"That's not how it is now. Either you leave now, or I'll beat you up..." Fang Gou said coldly, rubbing his wrist.
Young Master Wang's gaze swept over the crowd, a chill running through him.
"Our boss told you to get lost, so get lost now!" the street thugs shouted.
Unlike their noisy situation, Xiao Su Bao was curled up in Qian Shi's arms, her eyes filled with a hint of warmth.
The little dumpling curled her lips slightly, and at that moment, the last line of defense in her heart completely broke down...
"Mom, I really, really love you, and my brother, sister-in-law, and nephews so much!"
Little Su Bao's soft, adorable voice was low, and her eyes were slightly red. She thought that her departure would save them from misfortune and make things better for them.
Little did she know that she was very important to her mother and the others. For the first time, she felt valued and important!
She is no longer the little mute girl that everyone disliked, the little jinx.
"Silly girl, your mother really loves you too!" Madam Qian stroked the baby's hair, her voice gentle.
If the little girl could see the kinship line on her own body.
You'll then discover that there's a subtle, yet undeniable, kinship connection between her and the Tang family.
Just as the little dumpling opened her heart to the Qian family, the connection between Xiao Su Bao and the Lan family suddenly snapped.
The Lan family, however, were completely unaware of this, as they were all busy preparing for their eldest daughter Lan Xin'er's engagement.
Lan Xin'er looks somewhat similar to Xiao Su Bao, except that her eyebrows and eyes are colder and there is a hint of calculation in her eyes.
“My little darling will be the Crown Princess someday. Although you are still young, you must learn manners…” An old lady dressed in gold and silver stood in front of the girl and said, word by word.
"Grandmother, I understand!" Lan Xin'er bowed respectfully to the old lady.
Just then, the old lady of the Lan family took a step forward, but she lost her footing and fell down while holding the little girl.
"Grandmother, are you alright?" Lan Xin'er endured the excruciating pain and looked up at the old lady with teary eyes.
But inside, I was seething with hatred. If you can't stand, then don't stand. Not only did you fall, but you also dragged me down with you...
If the old lady were to fall and suffer any serious injury, their family's relationship with the palace would become strained. And since she was still young, what if someone coveted her position as the Crown Princess?
You should know that everyone in the palace only recognizes the old lady!
She hasn't married the Crown Prince yet, and everything is uncertain. She absolutely cannot let anything happen to the old lady.
The old lady grimaced in pain. Since marrying into the Lan family, she had never fallen before. She glanced at the ground and saw that there was a chip in a stone slab.
"Why is there a chip in this floor? Have someone come and fix it later!"
The old lady was furious.
If Xiao Su Bao were still here, she would definitely think that Xiao Su Bao was the one who caused her trouble.
Even now, though she's not around, the old lady's first thought is still about Xiao Su Bao...
"Maybe it was that little girl's fault that caused her to fall," the old lady said with a gloomy face, already used to blaming all the mistakes on Xiao Su Bao.
What they didn't know was that the usually arrogant Lord Lan was being challenged in the imperial court!
"Lord Lan is old and his eyesight is failing, which is understandable. But if you dare to needlessly cause the deaths of my soldiers, don't blame me for being impolite!"
The man stared coldly at Lord Lan, but the resentment in his heart did not dissipate in the slightest.
Such a beautiful and gentle woman, her life ended in the ruthless Lan family, the men wished they could wipe out the entire Lan family to vent their hatred.
But he can't, at least not for the time being!
Years ago, due to some unexpected circumstances, he forced himself on that woman, but because he had important matters to attend to, he didn't have time to marry her.
So he gave her his token and told her that he would come back to marry her when he returned.
Unexpectedly, he was gone for five years. Although he wrote to the woman every month, he received a reply the first time he wrote, but the second time he received a farewell letter.
Even so, he did not give up; he had originally planned to come back sooner.
But the war was raging at that time, and he had no choice but to ask his friend to come back and take a look.
But his friend disappeared without a trace. He later found out that his friend had been killed by the Lan family.
The girl from the Lan family turned out to be Lan Shuyu, who was famous throughout the capital. He was both excited and regretful.
If I had been more forceful and taken the woman away directly, perhaps none of what happened later would have occurred.
Thinking of this, the man's heart ached slightly. He raised his head and looked coldly at Lord Lan opposite him.
"Alright, let's put this matter on hold for now!"
When the emperor spoke in the imperial court, the two fell silent.
Lord Lan was so angry that he clutched his chest and suddenly collapsed in the court.
The general watched this scene coldly, a smirk playing on his lips, a chilling glint in his eyes.
But at this moment, Xiao Su Bao was completely unaware of all the things that had happened in the capital after she accepted the Tang family.
She had no idea that her father had already returned!
The little baby nestled in Qian's arms, his rosy cheeks and bright eyes filled with joy.
"Aren't you leaving yet? Are you planning to make me pay you?" Fang Gou said coldly, looking at the scene before him.
Young Master Wang had no choice. His side had fewer people than the Tang family, and with Fang Gou also present, he was no match for them and could only slink back in disgrace.
But for some reason, he gave Xiao Su Bao a long, venomous look as he left.
It's all because of this little brat. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have been at a disadvantage twice.
With this thought in mind, a cold glint appeared in Young Master Wang's eyes.
"What are you looking at? Look again and I'll gouge your eyes out and stomp on them!" Fang Gou's face was full of disgust. This stupid son of the rich Wang family, does he really think that money can do everything?
Fang Gou looked at him coldly: "I'll count to three..."
Young Master Wang turned and left without waiting for Fang Gou to speak again.
Tang Yu and Tang Si, who were standing to the side, noticed the coldness in Wang Gongzi's eyes, and they also became secretly wary of him.
In the evening, Qian took the baby to the room. She looked at the baby and reached out to touch the baby's hair.
“My dear daughter, I don’t know why you want to leave, or why you’ve been unhappy lately. If you don’t want to tell me, I won’t force you. But if you run away from home again, I will be very sad.”
At this point, Madam Qian paused slightly before continuing, "And you're so young, how can you survive out there? If you run around again, I'll tie you to my waistband and follow you wherever you go!"
Little Su Bao lowered her head, feeling as if she had done something wrong.
But listening to Qian's words, the little girl felt a warmth in her heart, after all, no one had ever cared for her before.
Seeing the pitiful little dumpling, how could Mrs. Qian possibly blame her?
“Remember that you are my lucky star, the lucky star of our village. If it weren’t for you, my family would have been doomed long ago.”
So don't take what others say about you being a witch or a jinx to heart. They're just jealous of you; they're the real jinxes themselves!
"Mom...but Grandma and Grandpa both say I'm a jinx...they...they don't like Su Bao...they're afraid I'll bring them bad luck!" Little Su Bao was a sensitive and precocious child, and she had tried to please Lan's grandparents.
No matter what I do, it only makes them hate me more.
Qian felt a pang of heartache upon hearing this, and inwardly cursed those people as wicked. How could they be so heartless when they were their own flesh and blood?
"Bullshit, you're a lucky star. They'd be in trouble without you!" Madam Qian stroked the little dumpling's hair, her voice becoming even gentler.
She whispered to the little baby, "Don't say you won't have bad luck. Even if you do have bad luck, you're my daughter now, and I'll never abandon you!"
Little Su Bao pursed her lips, a hint of warmth in her eyes.
"Sweetie, time to sleep!" Madam Qian cuddled the little bundle of joy, a touch of warmth emanating from the darkness.
Little Su Bao nestled in Qian Shi's arms and slowly drifted off to sleep, a smile playing on her lips even in her dreams.
In the middle of the night, Xiao Su Bao suddenly frowned.
She suddenly opened her eyes and looked at the roof beam...
