Divorced woman with child travels through time

Several thugs brought by Eunuch Wan outside the door wanted to rush in when they heard the fighting inside, but Wang Feng and his men stopped them.

"Alas, your father-in-law said he wants to see our general alone, and we mustn't disturb him."

"That's right, you can't go in."

Wang Erniu and his bodyguards blocked the door with half-smiles, listening to the agonizing cries of pain from those being beaten inside. They were very pleased with themselves, letting their power and bullying of men and women go unchecked!

After Wang Erniu delivered a few punches, Little Wan Gonggong dared not resist and let Wang Erniu beat him, only kneeling down and begging for mercy.

Although Wang Erniu loathed him and wanted to kill him outright, he thought that since the man had entered his Anfu Division openly and honestly, he couldn't let him leave unscathed. So he decided to leave some room for maneuver and instead aimed his blows at the man's internal organs, making the external injuries less noticeable.

"Come in!" Wang Erniu picked up the silver notes from the ground, shook off the powder, put them on the table, and then sat down to watch the show.

The group of people brought by Grandpa Wan rushed in impatiently, especially Xi Lu, who was at the forefront.

You can tell just by looking at his name, Xi Lu Xi Lu, because he likes Wan Changlu.

"Grandpa Wan! What happened to you?" Xi Lu helped up Grandpa Wan, who was lying on the ground barely alive, and cried with great emotion.

I noticed he still had a smelly cloth stuffed in his mouth, so I just pulled it out for him.

"General Wang! You are a dignified pacification commissioner, how could you do such a thing? You assaulted our supply officer! I will definitely report this to the capital, and you will be punished!" Xi Lu said through gritted teeth, looking at Wang Erniu with resentment.

"What nonsense are you spouting!" Wang Erniu picked up the teacup on the table and said innocently, "It was just that Eunuch Wan accidentally tripped over his own feet and fell. Look, apart from a few injuries on his face, he's not injured anywhere else!"

As they spoke, Grandpa Wan gradually regained consciousness.

Xilu took a closer look and it was true. Apart from a slight bruise on his chin near his face, there was no other broken skin or redness.

"Grandpa Wan, how are you? Are you alright? Did he hit you?" Xilu asked anxiously.

Wan Changlu glanced at Wang Erniu, his eyes filled with a chilling intensity.

“You little eunuch, if you keep spouting nonsense like this, I’ll have someone take you to the prefectural government. I’m sure you don’t want to go to jail!” Wang Erniu said to Wan Changlu without dodging or avoiding him. “Besides, this silver note still has the sleeping potion that you gave me, Eunuch Wan! Are you perhaps unwilling to admit it, Eunuch Wan?”

Wang Feng opened the door cooperatively, and in an instant, all the personnel from the Pacification Division looked over.

Wang Erniu stood up and shouted, "Colleagues, look over here! Wasn't it this young eunuch Wan who just showed me the silver notes and said he wanted to give them to me separately?"

The Pacification Division does have a few people, not to mention a few seemingly insignificant veterans.

When Wang Erniu shouted, everyone looked at Wan Changlu, who had sat up, with a strange expression.

Xi Lu was about to say something when Wan Changlu interrupted him, "Let's go!" he said in a very low, weak voice.

"Alright! Quickly, come and help the father-in-law! I'll go and have someone carry the sedan chair in." Xi Lu, having served him for so long, immediately noticed that something was wrong with him.

Wang Erniu smiled slightly and looked at them without saying a word.

Wan Changlu remained expressionless, his eyes fixed and staring straight at Wang Erniu. Gone was that frantic desire; only endless calm remained, along with a ruthless intent hidden beneath that calm.

Looking at Wang Erniu and Wan Changlu, who was still sitting on the ground unable to get up, Yu Long seemed to understand something. His eyes shone brightly, almost blindingly so. He realized that coming here was the right thing to do; following a good superior was more important than anything else.

"Come, come, be careful, go slowly, let me help you, Father-in-law!" Xi Lu carried the sedan chair into the main hall. Fortunately, the office of the Pacification Commissioner's Office was large, and several people helped him up.

After Wan Changlu settled in, he seemed a little more alert. Just as the sedan chair was about to move, he stretched out a hand, pointed in Wang Erniu's direction, and muttered from inside, "Lord Wang, be careful when fighting the Japanese in the future. I wish you peace."

I don't know if he said that intentionally or unintentionally, or if he was just resentful about being beaten!

Wang Erniu gave a cold laugh, "No need for you to worry, Father-in-law!"

"Let's go!" Xilu glared at them fiercely and led the group away angrily.

After everyone left, Wang Erniu gave the silver notes to the magistrate and told Wang Feng and the others to go inside.

Upon entering, I found Yu Long there as well.

"What are you doing here?" Wang Feng asked, looking at him strangely.

"Me, count me in. I know what you're going to do, take me with you." Yu Long's face turned bright red, and her hands trembled slightly, as if she wasn't very good at communicating in this kind of situation.

"Oh? Then tell me what we're going to do?" Wang Erniu became interested.

"You should go out. Just stay here and work hard. The adults won't treat you badly," Wang Feng said.

“You’re definitely going to settle scores with Wan Changlu. I have a grudge against him, and he won’t let me off the hook. Count me in, and I’ll be one of yours from now on.” Yu Long held her breath and blurted it all out in one breath.

"Oh, you do know about this. Never mind, come in!" Wang Erniu thought to himself that this kid was quite clever, and being good-looking was certainly an advantage.

The group closed the door and talked for over an hour before Yu Long emerged, looking like she had learned a great deal.

"Father-in-law, let me escort you back to your residence. I'll go fetch a doctor!" Xi Lu couldn't help but remind Wan Changlu, who looked like he was about to fall asleep.

Thanks to his shout, Wan Changlu snapped out of his daze.

"No, take me to Anlefang, take me directly to the doctor!" Wan Changlu was sweating profusely from the pain, he must have internal injuries. No one knew these dark things better than him. He had been too naive. This Wang Erniu was no ordinary martial artist. He couldn't be dealt with in an ordinary way. He almost lost his life there. Fortunately, it was in front of everyone, so Wang Erniu didn't kill him.

Once I'm better, I'll make him wish he were dead! Wan Changlu gasped, viciously grabbing the thug's arm beside him, his long nails digging into the flesh. The thug's arm was soon covered in blood, but he endured it without uttering a sound.

Only after the sedan chair entered Anlefang did Xilu open the curtain, and Wan Changlu finally released her grip. As she retracted her fingernail, a long streak of blood appeared on her fingernail.

After the doctors settled Wan Changlu in, Xi Lu, once he could no longer see Wan Changlu, said to the captured thug, "You should get a bandage too!" With that, he took out a bag of silver from his pocket and threw it into the thug's arms.

The thug beamed with joy, forgetting all about actually hitting him, and chuckled, "Thank you, Eunuch Xi! May you live a long and healthy life!"

Xilu squinted her eyes contentedly and nodded with satisfaction, as if she were being pampered.
