The Moon is Full in the Traveling House

Chapter 69: Settling Accounts with Wenxinhou Mansion

Xiao Anning was extremely anxious. She hurried back to the general's residence and rushed straight to the courtyard where her brother was. As soon as she stepped into the courtyard, her eyes were attracted by the thick bandage wrapped around Xiao Anzhi's head, with spots of blood on the bandage. Xiao Anning's heart suddenly tightened. She quickened her pace and walked to her brother, and asked softly, "Anzhi, does it hurt?"

After all, Xiao Anzhi is only a ten-year-old child. He had been enduring the pain outside and dared not show it. But now seeing his closest sister, all the grievances and pains came to his heart. He couldn't help pouting his little mouth, tears welling up in his eyes: "Second sister, Anzhi is in so much pain! I really didn't mean to fight. It was Song Ye and the others who led people to attack me first..." Xiao Anning looked at her brother distressedly, gently hugged him in her arms, gently stroked his hair, and comforted him: "Second sister knows that you are a good boy. This matter is definitely not your fault. Wenxinhou Mansion is really too much. They dared to bully our general's mansion like this! Don't worry, sister will definitely seek justice for you."

After comforting her brother, Xiao An Ning turned to look at the doctor standing beside her and asked anxiously: "Doctor He, how is Anzhi's injury? Is it serious? Does he have other injuries?" Her eyes were full of concern and worry, fearing that her brother would be hurt in the slightest.

Doctor He said respectfully, "Young Master, you have some scratches on your left shoulder and back, but they are not serious. However, the cut on your forehead needs special attention. If you don't handle it carefully, it may leave a scar. Fortunately, it did not hurt any vital parts. I have used the secret elixir of the General's Mansion on you. As long as you take good care of yourself, there should be no big problem. It's just that there may be some pain and itching. Please remember, never scratch it with your hands."

After hearing this, Xiao An Ning was filled with worry and quickly asked, "Are there any other things that need attention?" Doctor He nodded slightly and responded, "Young Master is in good health on weekdays. You should try to keep your diet light these days and take medicine on time. At the same time, remember not to scratch the wound to avoid leaving scars. Just rest for a few days and you will be healthy again."

Xiao Anzhi sniffed lightly and responded with a slightly frustrated look, "I understand, sister." There was a hint of helplessness in his voice, and he seemed a little annoyed about his situation.

Seeing her brother's listless and dejected look, Xiao An Ning felt upset: "Anzhi! Can you tell me in detail how they bullied you? I will definitely help you vent your anger and avenge you!"

"After class today, I was preparing to go home as usual, and suddenly I found that the necklace that my eldest sister gave me two days ago was missing. So Xiaofeng and I went to look for it separately. Who could have expected that we would run into that bastard Song Ye on the way, and he brought two accomplices with him. Seeing that I was alone, they took the opportunity to attack me. Of course, I couldn't just sit there and wait to die, so I fought with them. It's a pity that they were outnumbered and I lost in the end... But fortunately, Xiaofeng came in time to save my life. Second sister, I promise you that I will work harder in practicing martial arts in the future and will never let this happen again..."

"Second Miss, please don't blame the young master. It was all because of my incompetence that I failed to protect the young master. You can punish me however you want, Xiaofeng will have no complaints!" Hearing this, Xiaofeng on the side hurriedly knelt down to apologize.

"Okay, Xiaofeng, get up! You can't be blamed for this. The only thing to blame is those villains who went too far. Don't worry, take good care of Anzhi, and leave the rest to me. Humph, Wenxinhou Mansion dared to bully my family again and again. I'm not a gentleman if I don't take revenge. I'm going to settle accounts with them now!" Xiao Anning said righteously, his eyes full of anger. The people in Wenxinhou Mansion have repeatedly challenged his bottom line, and this time he must make them pay the price.

"Sister, why don't we wait for parents and elder sister to come back..." Xiao Anzhi grabbed Xiao An Ning's clothes a little uneasily.

"Anzhi, take good care of your injuries. I'll be back soon. Don't worry, I'll be fine." Xiao An Ning said softly with a hint of determination in her eyes.

"Then Second Sister, please be careful." Xiao Anzhi warned like a little adult, with concern in his eyes. Xiao Anning smiled slightly, waved her hand gently, and walked out the door with firm steps.

Xiao An Ning came to the front hall and asked Butler Xiao, "Grandpa Xiao, is Commander Xiao in the mansion?"

Butler Xiao looked at Xiao Anning, and a sense of doubt surged in his heart. He replied: "Xiao Yu accompanied the general to inspect the military camp and has not returned yet. Second Miss, what are you doing?" Xiao Anning's face was serious, completely different from before. Butler Xiao noticed her change and couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"What about Xiao Lei and Xiao Yang?"

"The two of them escorted the madam and the eldest daughter to Lingwen Temple and have not returned yet." Butler Xiao answered truthfully.

Xiao An Ning pondered for a moment, then said decisively: "Then let Xiao Yan bring a few people with me to Wenxinhou Mansion." After that, Xiao An Ning turned and left without even looking at the faces of others.

Su Lun saw Xiao An Ning walking forward in a hurry, and worried that she might encounter danger or an accident, so he and Qing Feng hurried to catch up. "Second Miss, please wait a moment! Are you going to Wenxin Marquis's Mansion? If so, let me accompany you." Xiao An Ning was stunned for a moment when she heard the voice behind her, and then turned to look at the person who spoke, it was Su Lun. He smiled and said firmly: "Although Su Lun's ability is limited, he is more than enough to act as a thug or guard."

Xiao Anning felt a warm current in her heart, and her tense expression relaxed, revealing a hearty smile: "Thank you... you are really nice." After saying that, she walked straight to the stable, led out her mount, jumped on the horse, and galloped away. After Su Lun greeted the housekeeper Su, he and Qingfeng also selected two horses, followed closely behind Xiao Anning, and chased after them with the other people in the general's mansion.

Steward Su looked at their receding backs, patted his forehead helplessly, turned around and instructed others: "Send someone to the military camp to invite the general immediately, and then go and see how long it will take for the lady and the eldest lady to return. Also, send someone to the East Palace to inform His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the situation here." Today's events were too unfortunate. At this critical moment, the person in charge was not there, and even the general's subordinates went to the military camp together. Steward Xiao was full of worries. He secretly prayed that everything could be resolved smoothly and that no unforeseen changes would occur.
