Divorced woman with child travels through time

Wang Da became increasingly engrossed in hacking and slashing, finding a wicked pleasure in it like a cat playing with a mouse. He kept slashing just short of the target. Da Xiong, being a child, wasn't particularly agile, and gradually, he became slower and slower in his dodges, putting him in a more and more dangerous situation. Chu Yi, who was fighting nearby, grew increasingly anxious and finally found an opening. He rolled over and pinned Wang Er beneath him, pulling his hand out of Wang Er's grasp.

Just then, Wang Da's knife slashed down at Da Xiong's body. In a moment of excitement, Chu Yi's hidden arrow slipped from his arm, but missed and struck Wang Da's calf.

"Ah!..." Wang Da screamed in agony, his face contorted in a ferocious expression. "Thud!" With a fierce tug, Wang Da pulled out the small sleeve arrow and cursed, "You forced me to do this!" He became even more ruthless.

Wang Hanyang, who was watching from the sidelines, thought to himself, "This is bad!" and immediately rushed out.

Sure enough, Wang Da turned around with his knife and slashed at Chu Yi. Wang Er, being Wang Da's brother, immediately understood and tightly hugged Chu Yi, wrapping his legs around Chu Yi's legs to prevent him from moving.

Da Xiong jumped up in panic, mustered his courage, and charged at Wang Da. But Wang Da was faster, bringing his knife down on Chu Yi's head. At the last second, Wang Hanyang swiftly threw a knife, accurately piercing Wang Da's arm. Wang Da cried out in pain, the knife slipping from his hand. Chu Yi, seeing Wang Hanyang appear, breathed a sigh of relief and struggled to retreat. Wang Er, regaining his senses, tightened his grip and locked Chu Yi's legs around him.

Wang Dayong gripped his injured hand, blood dripping from it, and roared viciously at Wang Hanyang, who rushed out, "Damn it, what's it to you? Mind your own business!"

Wang Hanyang remained silent. He had been relieved after stabbing Wang Da with his knife. Wang Hanyang slowly walked towards Wang Da without saying a word. A fist came out quietly, followed by a hook to the head, a left hook, a right hook, an elbow strike, and a knee strike. After the combo, Wang Da's nose was bleeding profusely, and he collapsed to the ground in a sorry state, panting heavily.

Big Bear, who was lying nearby, had his eyes light up, watching Wang Hanyang beat someone up without blinking. "Damn, that's so cool..."

Seeing this, Wang Er subconsciously let go of Chu Yi and ran to the side to lewdly support his older brother.

"Uncle Hanyang, what brings you here?" Chu Yi asked with surprise and joy.

Wang Hanyang smiled helplessly, "You didn't tell your family. My second brother told me to keep an eye on you. If I don't take action, you'll probably lose your hand."

Chu Yi, still drenched in cold sweat from the near-death experience, nodded and said, "You're right, thank you for saving me, Uncle."

Seeing that he listened to the advice, Wang Hanyang nodded and said, "Talk to your second brother later. We can talk about anything as family. There's no need to be too polite. We need to discuss things properly. Isn't that what your godmother has always said?"

"Okay, I understand. I'll talk to Uncle Erniu when I get back." Chu Yi obediently agreed. He understood what had happened this time. He was still too young, and his martial arts skills were lacking. Once someone grabbed his hand, he was helpless. Da Xiong wasn't good enough either, and the other younger brothers were indeed too young. The two of them couldn't protect the children properly at the moment.

"You two are chatting?" Wang Da-bi cursed, "You lowly bastards, you dare to hit me? Go ahead and kill me if you dare! Let me tell you, if you don't kill me in a day, you won't have a good time either."

“That’s right.” Wang Er supported Wang Da, as if his brother had given him immense courage. He glared angrily at Wang Hanyang and the others, echoing their shouts and curses, “Those little brats, we can kill them like crushing an ant. You can’t stay home and watch them every day, can you? You have to go out sometime. Just wait and see how we deal with them.”

"You son of a bitch!" Big Bear couldn't stand it and was about to rush forward again. "Go to hell!" Chu Yi also wanted to rush forward, but the two of them were held back by Wang Hanyang.

"I'll do it!" Veins bulged on Wang Hanyang's forehead. He held back, but this kind of scum had to be beaten to death to prevent endless trouble.

Wang Hanyang smiled slightly and said, "So what do you want? Name your price."

Wang Da revealed a smug smile and said, "Look, you smashed my door, that must be worth a tael of silver, right? And my brother was also injured, that must cost a tael of silver for medical expenses, right?"

"Have you no shame? You want a tael of silver for this shabby door?" Chu Yi couldn't help but retort.

"That's right, and so is he, he just got a minor scrape." Big Bear argued, feeling both frustrated and aggrieved.

"Why isn't it worth it? My door was passed down from my grandfather, that's all it's worth!" Wang Er barked like a dog every now and then. He casually wiped the scabbed-over wound, letting it bleed a little more. "Hey, hey, it's still bleeding." He had teamed up with his older brother more than once or twice, and since he didn't get beaten up that often, every little bit helps.

"Pah, shameless." Chu Yi spat.

Wang Hanyang waved his hand and said slowly, "Anything else? Continue."

"And me too. You hurt me so badly, so at least, right? At least five taels of silver." Wang Da held up his uninjured hand and made a five-point gesture.

"Alright!" Wang Hanyang stood up, took out ten taels of silver from his pocket, and threw it at him. "Here are ten taels of silver. Keep the change. Let's call it a day, okay?"

"Ha!" Wang Da and Wang Er's eyes lit up. They'd swindled money so easily. This big oaf didn't seem so great after all. "Alright, alright, a true hero is generous." Wang Er quickly picked up the silver and bit it. "Ouch, it's real."

Seeing this, Wang Hanyang prepared to leave with the two men. Wang Daque chuckled and said, "Hehe, hero, my injury won't heal so quickly. I'm afraid this amount of money isn't enough."

Wang Hanyang laughed in exasperation, and without turning his head, said, "Fine, I don't have enough money on me. How about this, I'll give you ten more taels in three days, and that'll settle things. Okay?" Wang Hanyang thought to himself, "Fine, consider it a little money to buy your lives."

"Okay, okay, thank you, sir." Wang Da was overjoyed. He just said it casually, thinking he could always try to extort money later if necessary. As for admitting debts, who knows for sure? Anyway, he hadn't admitted to it. No, he had never admitted to it.

Wang Hanyang led the two back to the courtyard.

"Uncle Hanyang, are we just going to let this go like this?" Chu Yi couldn't help but ask.

“Of course we can’t let it go like that. I have my own plans, so don’t worry. Go back to Chen’s now and have Da Zhuang drive the carriage over. Take the child and leave tonight. Oh, your name is Da Xiong, right?” Wang Hanyang asked directly.

"Yes." Big Bear was inexplicably nervous and straightened up. The children also looked at the tall man who had been led in by the first-year junior high school student. With his arrival, the room seemed crowded, and the children, a little scared, huddled together in a ball.

Wang Hanyang looked at the room full of children, their faces pale and thin from hunger, their clothes tattered, some with injuries, and two lying there tightly bandaged. He sighed and said gently, "Don't be afraid. I'm your first-year brother's uncle. I'll protect you here. Don't be afraid."
