The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

Cheng Feng reached out and pulled the two apart, saying, "Let's talk this out. Fighting won't solve anything."

At this moment, Da Yan instinctively wanted to hide behind Cheng Feng, but Cheng Feng held him down. He couldn't be Cheng Feng's shield forever. "You guys tell me how to solve this. If it doesn't work, we'll report it to the authorities."

"Young Master, look at my clothes! I spent two taels of silver to make them for the New Year, and now they're all burned to charcoal. My hair is burned, my hands are burned, and I have several burning spots on my body. You have to compensate me for all of this." The man who watched the fire-playing game had his once beautiful clothes completely ruined, his hair was missing, and his hands were burned. It was perfectly reasonable for him to ask Big Eyes for an explanation.

Cheng Feng looked at the big-eyed man and said succinctly, "Pay up the money."

There's nothing more to say about this than paying compensation.

Big Eyes looked timidly at Cheng Feng, then shrank back and pulled out a handful of copper coins from his pocket. "This is all I have."

"These few copper coins are not enough! Your Highness, you must do me justice." The man who had been burned felt that he was extremely unlucky today. He was burned from head to toe, but the perpetrator could not come up with any money to compensate him.

What could Cheng Feng, a mere bystander watching the commotion, possibly do? But this title of "Prince" wasn't given lightly. Even if it was a trivial matter that drew the crowd's attention, he couldn't ignore it. So, Cheng Feng decisively took out his money pouch and paid the man a certain amount of silver: "Is this enough?"

"That's enough, thank you, Your Highness."

Before leaving with the silver, the man kicked Big Eyes, who fell to the ground but quickly got up again. He asked Cheng Feng, "That woman who's about to give birth won't have one, right?"

Cheng Feng looked at him and then up at the sky, saying weakly, "How would I know! Let's go. Be prepared. If anything happens to that woman and the child in her womb, the man with the big knife will definitely take your life."

"Then wouldn't I be going to my death?" Big Eyes was clearly about to back down.

"Hmph, if you really get involved in a murder case, you're going to die whether you go or not. Go! What's meant to be will be.

Cheng Feng walked in front, with Cheng Youning beside him. Next to Cheng Youning was Cang Zhuo, who hadn't gotten into the carriage earlier. Two meters behind Cheng Feng was Da Yan.

Cang Zhuo tugged at Cheng Youning's sleeve with her small hand. Cheng Youning tried to shake her off twice but couldn't escape Cang Zhuo's little hand. Cang Zhuo was crying and sniffling, anxiously seeking comfort, "Big brother, will my mother be alright?"

Cheng Youning was somewhat annoyed by Cang Zhuo's noise. He scolded Cang Zhuo in the manner of an elder: "As long as you don't cry here, your mother will be fine."

"But my mother is bleeding, little brother, my mother is bleeding a lot, will my mother die?" When his father picked up his mother, Cang Zhuo saw with his own eyes that blood was flowing down his father's hand that was holding his mother.

Since it hadn't happened to him, Cheng Youning could naturally make sarcastic remarks. He said to Cang Zhuo in a lecturing tone, "Every wrong has its perpetrator and its debtor. We've caught the person who hurt your mother, haven't we? If anything happens to your mother, just ask this big eye of yours. The worst outcome is just a life for a life!"

Cang Zhuo's round eyes were red from crying, but he pulled himself together. His older brother was right; he had to get revenge. He turned and jumped onto Big Eyes, pinning him down, then swung his little fists at Big Eyes' head, yelling, "You bastard, you dare hurt my mother! I'll beat you to death today..."

Big Eyes was already trembling with fear from Cheng Youning's words. Even if Cang Zhuo beat him to death, he wouldn't dare to fight back. He thought that going with them would definitely be dangerous. The man who had tried to kill him with the big knife would definitely not let him go. He was doomed. Rather than die under that man's knife, he would rather die by fists and feet. At least he could leave with a whole body.

Cheng Feng bent down, grabbed Cang Zhuo by the collar, and pulled him off Da Yan's body. "Stop fooling around. Your mother can't be hurt."

Cang Zhu pouted and hugged Cheng Feng's leg, crying again, "But my mother lost so much blood, will my mother really not die?"

Cheng Feng picked up Cang Zhuo and patted his back to comfort him, saying, "Why are you crying? We'll know if you're alright when we get back."

Accompanied by Cang Zhuo's cries, Cheng Feng led a group of people to Cang Man's house.

The atmosphere at Cang Man's house was very heavy. Shang Xiheye and Cang Man waited anxiously outside, while Yu Hua was inside accompanying the baby during labor. As soon as she entered the courtyard, she heard Fu Rong's painful screams from inside the house.

Cang Man paced back and forth at the door, muttering, "Is this midwife any good? Giving birth to a child is like slaughtering a pig." Cang Man turned around and saw Da Yan, who had a bruised and swollen face, pointing a finger at him and threatening, "You just wait, if anything happens to my wife and child, I'll kill your whole family."

Shang Xi couldn't stand Cang Man's behavior the most. "Cang Man, that's enough. Fu Rong is giving birth inside. Stop shouting and fighting outside. Think of something auspicious."

Suddenly, a baby cried out, and Yu Hua came out carrying the child. "Cang Man, congratulations on becoming a father again."

Cang Man's anger turned to joy, and he quickly stepped forward to check. He asked Yu Hua, "Is it a boy or a girl?"

Yu Hua said enviously, "Cang Man, you're so lucky, you've had another son!"

Cang Man's eyes widened. "The manager of Tongbao Pharmacy is cheating me. He said my wife was having a girl, how come it's a boy?"

Cang Man began to unwrap the baby's blanket with his large hands, but Yu Hua pushed Cang Man away with her elbow and said with displeasure, "What are you doing?"

Cang Man said with a serious expression, "Let me check and see if you've made a mistake. This should be a daughter."

Upon hearing this, Yu Hua untied the blanket. "Look, look carefully, isn't this my son?"

Cang Man reached for the large sword at his waist and said in a loud voice, "I'm going to Tongbao Pharmacy to settle accounts with that shopkeeper. I'm going to smash her pharmacy to pieces today."

Shang Xi looked at the newborn's face with great interest, its face full of wrinkles, so interesting. She pushed Cang Man and said, "What does your inability to give birth to a daughter have to do with the doctor at the pharmacy? It's your own fault."

Cang Man was eager for a daughter and looked unconvinced, saying, "Why can't I have one? This baby should definitely be a girl."

At that moment, Fu Rong's weak voice rang out from inside the room, "Cang Man, what are you doing?"

Cang Man hurriedly ran into the house. Looking at the exhausted Fu Rong, Cang Man said in a silly tone, "Wife, we have a new brat in our family."

Furong laughed, "Isn't your son good enough?"

Cang Man chuckled foolishly, "What do you want so much for, brat! I want a daughter. Honey, you'll have to suffer and have another daughter in the future."
