Chapter 307 You are the General Who Guards the Army, Tang Bugui
Tang Bugui looked at the newcomer and narrowed his eyes slightly.
He hugged Xiao Su Bao tighter and completely blocked Fu Man Duo from view.
As for the lives of others, he had no say in them...
"Miss!" Little Tiger grabbed a maid by the back of her collar with one hand and held a blood-stained sword in the other.
His eyes were bloodshot, and his voice was slightly hoarse.
"Auntie, save me!" The little maid cried out in a trembling voice when she saw Auntie Wen.
Aunt Wen was completely distraught; her face turned pale, and she stumbled and fell to the ground.
"Little tiger...you're back?" Fu Manduo poked his head out from behind Tang Bugui.
But Little Tiger didn't move; he gripped the blood sword in his hand even tighter.
He stared at Tang Bugui warily; this man gave him a very dangerous feeling!
It seemed that if he made the slightest move, this person would turn into a terrifying killer and come to kill him.
"Miss, are you alright?" The little tiger stared at Tang Bugui while looking at his young mistress, his worry evident in his eyes.
He had just returned and discovered that the girl was missing. The servants said that she had been taken away by the maidservant of Consort Wen.
The young tiger found the maidservant and, discovering her mistress was not there, immediately tied her up.
Those bastards who tried to stop him were all slashed and injured by him.
"I'm fine. My good friend and her father saved me!" Fu Manduo looked at the little tiger, breathed a slight sigh of relief, and looked a little tired.
"Miss, I'm so sorry!"
Little Tiger walked a few steps to a place not far from Fumanduo, and after confirming that Fumanduo was alright, he breathed a slight sigh of relief.
He felt incredibly guilty; if anything happened to the young lady, even his death wouldn't be enough to atone for his sins.
He turned to look at Xiao Su Bao and Tang Bu Gui, and Little Tiger immediately knelt down before Xiao Su Bao.
"Xiao Nai, Fu Xie, Su Bao, and Young Master Tang saved our young lady!" After saying this, he kowtowed twice.
Little Su Bao quickly said, "Little Tiger Brother, get up! Sister Fu is Su Bao's good friend. Su Bao is very happy to be able to help Sister Fu!"
The little dumpling became anxious when it saw the little tiger kneeling down.
"No matter what, if it weren't for Miss Su Bao and Young Master Tang..." Little Tiger usually doesn't talk much, but now he said a lot.
He wanted to continue kowtowing, but was stopped by a strong hand.
"My daughter told you to get up, so get up now!" Tang Bugui looked at the little tiger and frowned slightly.
"A man's knees are worth gold. You... if you want to kneel next time, just give me gold. Kowtowing is the least valuable thing!" Tang Bugui said indifferently, looking slightly disgusted.
The little tiger was taken aback for a moment, but then took out his money bag and offered it with both hands.
"This is all I have!" he said decisively.
Tang Bugui didn't stand on ceremony, took the money bag, and stuffed it into Xiao Su Bao's hand.
Little Su Bao looked at the money bag, then at her father, and paused for a moment.
Fu Manduo rarely showed a smile.
“Yes, Uncle Tang is right. From now on, you’re not allowed to kneel down so easily. If you want to kneel down, just give me gold!” Fu Manduo said with a hint of relief.
The little tiger nodded seriously and said, "Yes!"
Little Su Bao was watching their conversation, but her little brain hadn't quite caught up yet.
The little dumpling didn't understand, so she simply stopped asking, figuring that what her father and sister Fu said must be true.
She hugged Tang Bugui, her big eyes stealing a glance at him cautiously. Father is so handsome.
He looks even better when he smiles...
When he's protecting her, she looks even more... even more... even more beautiful!
Her little hands couldn't help but secretly pinch the back of Tang Bugui's neck.
It feels pretty good...
Tang Bugui was taken aback and couldn't help but look down at Xiao Su Bao.
The little dumpling was so frightened that it quickly withdrew its hand, avoided Tang Bugui's gaze, and pretended that nothing had happened.
Tang Bugui couldn't help but smile slightly at the guilty look on her face.
Little Su Bao was worried that her father would be angry, so she pursed her lips tightly and frowned.
Fu Manduo, who was standing to the side, was unaware of the little dumpling's unusual behavior. She glanced at the little tiger and then shifted her gaze to Aunt Wen.
"Little tiger, don't worry, I'm fine! Besides, I won't..." show any more leniency towards these people in the future.
Fu Manduo didn't say the rest of her words. She looked at Aunt Wen and the others with coldness in her eyes.
The latter trembled slightly and dared not meet Fuman's gaze.
Her scheme against Fu Manduo was primarily for the sake of the Wen family.
Fulin has been doing quite well lately, and according to his father, he'll probably be promoted soon!
Fulin wasn't particularly interested in his concubines in the backyard, and they would only come over occasionally, about twice a month.
Her father was worried that Fulin would become arrogant and look down on the Wen family, which is why he caused this mess.
"That's enough. Lock up Wen Shi and deal with her when Father returns!" Fu Manduo said indifferently, his eyes filled with only disgust and coldness as he looked at Wen Shi.
"Yes!" The butler's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly went over to arrest the person himself.
The Fu family appears to have no female head of household; it seems that Madam Wen is in charge.
But Fulin said that no one in the family could go against his daughter's wishes.
If he finds out, at best I'll be sold off, at worst I'll be beaten to death!
They've all signed life-or-death contracts; their lives are entirely in the hands of their masters.
The butler was about to leave with Madam Wen when he turned around and saw a pair of gloomy eyes.
"Patriarch... Patriarch..." He knelt down with a thud.
Fulin carried a roast chicken he bought for his daughter in his left hand and pastries he bought for her in his right.
He had just returned home, eagerly anticipating finding his daughter.
Unexpectedly, this is what I saw as soon as I got home.
Fu Lin could be a county magistrate; how could he be a fool!
Moreover, he is the young master of the Fu family and the future leader.
Looking at his only son and that boy from the Wen family, he instantly guessed what was going on.
"Father, save me! This man and this brat are in our house. They hit me and bullied me! Father, you must stand up for Fuyun!" Fuyun cried and ran over to Fulin when she saw him return.
Fu Lin glanced at Fu Yun, then turned to look at Wen Shi.
Ms. Wen pursed her lips, lowered her eyes, and looked very aggrieved.
Fu Manduo looked at his father and couldn't help but breathe a slight sigh of relief.
"Father, the Wen family wants to ruin my reputation!" Fu Manduo raised his eyes and said to his father with clear eyes.
Fulin's body trembled slightly, and he tightened his grip on the food.
Little Su Bao looked at Fu Lin nervously. The little dumpling broke free from Tang Bu Gui's arms and reached out to grab Fu Man Duo's hand.
Fu Manduo paused for a moment, then turned to look at Xiao Su Bao, whose face was full of concern and worry.
Having endured countless torrential downpours at the Lan family's residence, she wanted to protect Sister Fu before her...
Fu Man paused for a moment, then gripped Xiao Su Bao's hand tightly and gave her a smile.
Her chubby little face was full of warmth.
"Slap!" Fu Lin raised his hand and slapped Fu Yun.
Fu Yun was stunned, and his face suddenly turned very ugly.
Ms. Wen rushed forward and hugged her son, her face turning deathly pale.
"Husband, what are you doing? He is your own flesh and blood, how can you bear to do this..." Madam Wen looked at Fu Lin in disbelief.
Although Fulin didn't usually care much about his illegitimate children, he would never hit them.
But now...
"Why wouldn't I have the heart to do it? Didn't I tell you not to mess with my daughter? The Wen family, what a fine Wen family! Guards, take Wen Shi and her two children back to the Wen family!"
"And this third daughter..." In his memory, his third daughter was quite well-behaved, but...
"Father, the third brother, is keeping her for now. Although she's useless, he asked for her to be spared before!" Fu Manduo said with a sneer.
She didn't like this third sister; she wished she had a sister like Xiao Su Bao!
Fulin nodded, but didn't even glance at them.
Fu Lin kicked Fu Yun and her son aside and walked over to Fu Manduo in a few steps.
"Don't be afraid, Man'er, it's alright now, Daddy's back." Fu Lin walked over, half-squatted down, and picked up Fu Man Duo.
Fu Manduo looked at his father, wanting to say something, but ultimately remained silent.
"Father, thanks to Su Bao and her new father, everything that happened today was made possible. Shall we treat Su Bao to a big meal today?" Fu Manduo looked at Fu Lin and smiled.
Fulin breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his daughter was really alright.
He glanced at Tang Bugui out of the corner of his eye, and for some reason, he felt that this man seemed somewhat familiar...
Fulin nodded; there were some things he didn't want to handle in front of outsiders.
“Of course, please trouble Young Master Tang and Miss Su Bao to move to the main hall!” Fu Lin said to Tang Bugui.
Tang Bugui nodded. Come to think of it, the two had met before, but it had been too far away...
Tang Bugui hugged Xiao Subao again, then turned and followed the servant to the main hall.
Fu Manduo needed to change his clothes, so he had people prepare a lot of pastries and fruit tea for them.
Tang Bugui and the others waited for a quarter of an hour before Fu Lin and Fu Manduo finally came over.
Fu Lin's face was filled with tenderness and heartache. As soon as he came in, his gaze toward Xiao Su Bao became even more tender.
"Su Bao, your uncle thanks you for saving Man Jie'er." He had only thought about the danger of this matter before.
Unexpectedly, the Wen family was so depraved that they actually had such wicked thoughts about their seven or eight-year-old daughter!
This enraged Fulin, who then disposed of all the careless servants in his household, as well as the people brought by the Wen family!
The three members of the Wen family, including the mother and her two sons, plus Wen Xi, were sent directly back to the Wen family by Fu Lin!
Wenxi had one of his legs broken by Fulin's men...
He didn't talk to Tang Bugui and the others about these things anymore!
"Little Su Bao, I missed you so much!" Fu Manduo changed into a bright red dress, her almond-shaped eyes shining, as if those events hadn't affected her at all.
Fu Manduo rushed to Xiao Su Bao, hugged her, and jumped up and down happily.
"I miss Sister Fu too!" Little Su Bao said sweetly, sounding a little reserved.
But you could tell she was still very happy.
Fu Lin looked at Xiao Su Bao gently, feeling a surge of gratitude. If it weren't for Xiao Su Bao, his daughter...
To be honest, he did manage to get his hands on some good stuff this time!
“Su Bao, do you miss your Sister Fu and not your Uncle Fu?” Fu Lin said with a smile.
Xiao Su Bao was taken aback, but she really hadn't thought about Uncle Fu!
The little dumpling couldn't lie, and immediately didn't know how to respond.
Looking at her, Fulin was immediately amused by the little girl's adorable appearance.
"Su Bao... Su Bao will miss Uncle Fu next time!" The little dumpling looked at Fu Lin with a serious expression and said.
"Haha, good!" Fulin laughed heartily, and continued, "Then Uncle will remember it!"
Little Su Bao nodded, and her sweet, childlike voice rang out: "Su Bao doesn't lie!"
Tang Bugui watched Fulin and Xiao Subao interact with a hint of envy in his eyes. It seemed that Xiao Subao was only so cautious when she was with him!
However, Fu Lin quickly looked at Tang Bugui, his brows furrowed, and he couldn't help but ask, "As far as I know, the Qian family man is already dead. What's going on here?"
"Did you two just get married?" he couldn't help but ask curiously.
Tang Bugui...
"What marriage? I'm Su Bao's father, her biological father..." Tang Bugui couldn't help but say, looking at Fu Lin's curious and gossipy expression.
"Oh?" Fu Lin raised an eyebrow, his smile fading slightly, and a hint of coldness appeared in his eyes as he looked at Tang Bugui.
After all, he had investigated Xiao Su Bao's situation and heard that the child had been stripped naked and abandoned outside Tangjia Village during the late spring cold snap.
Besides, wasn't it said that Xiao Su Bao's parents are both dead?
This person might be a fake!
Thinking about it, he carefully examined Tang Bugui. How could he possibly deceive his daughter's best friend on his own turf?
Upon seeing this, his brows furrowed even more deeply.
It feels so familiar, so very familiar!
“Um, Young Master Tang… no, may I ask this young master’s surname?” Fu Lin asked, already showing interest in probing.
"My surname is Tang, and my given name is... Bugui..." Tang Bugui said, word by word.
“Oh…it’s Tang Bugui…” Fu Lin was about to speak when he suddenly realized something.
He jumped to his feet, staring at Tang Bugui in disbelief!
How could that be!
Why is his name the same as that of the youngest general in the Great Shang Kingdom?
Impossible, impossible!
That general is no longer young, let alone having children, and he's still a bachelor!
How could such a grown daughter suddenly appear?
"Master Fu, we met once when you became the top scholar in the imperial examination!"
Tang Bugui did not hide his identity and directly revealed it.
Since the Imperial Astronomical Bureau has said there will be a natural disaster, there must really be danger. I wonder if they are aware of this matter?
Fu Lin, unaware of Tang Bugui's thoughts, stared intently at Tang Bugui.
That explains why I felt Tang Bugui was familiar to me!
When he was named the top scholar by the emperor, the young man standing next to the emperor was Tang Bugui!
But how come Tang Bugui has aged so much in just a few years?
She's clearly only in her early twenties, but looks so...
It's as if the illness has reached its terminal stage!
"Are you General Tang Bugui, the commander of the garrison?" Fu Lin asked, gripping his sleeve tightly.
"Yes, it's me!" Tang Bugui said with a smile.
Little Su Bao also looked up at her father. So, her father was really that amazing?
Her big eyes were full of admiration; her father was indeed a great hero.
Just then, someone suddenly ran in from outside.
"Sir, something has happened outside!"
