Chapter 554: Chapter 554 - 554: Silencing

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Ah Yu had never seen a house fight before, but Meatbail told her stories every day. In the past, it used to tell fairy tales and myths. But this past year, it has started telling stories about the children of the martial arts world. Last month, it told Ah Yu some stories about the Inner Residence and the palace. All Yu was past the age of believing everything she heard, so she snorted at the house fights and palace fights in the stories.

Their Wang Family was very good. There were no conflicts between mother-in-law and sisters-in-law. There was only the tacit understanding of adults beating up children (excluding her).

Now that she had finally seen the real version, Ah Yu’s story spirit was ignited.

“Little Master.” Tang Yuan bowed to Ah Yu from afar. She did not say anything, but All Yu had a tacit understanding with her for many years and naturally knew what her gaze meant.

“What Little Master? Who are you? You look unfamiliar to me. You’re not from our Linkong City, right?” A person who looked like a noblewoman spoke especially harshly. “The prefectural magistrate’s office is not a place that just anyone can enter.”

Ah Yu shook her head and looked at her with disappointment.

It was as if she originally had some expectations for her, but now that her expectations had fallen through, she looked down on the other party.

“What do you mean by that gaze?” The noblewoman felt very uncomfortable under Ah Yu’s gaze. She could not help but touch her hair and tug at her clothes, not discovering anything inappropriate about her.

Ah Yu said, “Stop looking. 1 thought you were playing house fighting just now, but from the looks of it, Big Sister doesn’t look like she knows how to fight at home.”

These words were especially honest, but not everyone present was stupid. They naturally understood what All Yu meant.

“You’re so rude. Not only did you barge in, but you also dared to spout nonsense. Someone, slap her.”

Beside her was another person in slightly shabby clothes. He was clearly the noblewoman’s follower.

Ah Yu was bored by the sight and felt that their ranks were too low. She turned her head slightly and said to Qin Huai, who had been standing beside her, “Big Brother All You, it’s too boring here. Let’s go somewhere else.”

Qin Huai naturally did not disagree.

However, before they left, they asked Tang Yuan to carry the young lady who had fallen into the water.

Tang Yuan is already 15 years old now. She usually practiced martial arts with Ah Yu and the others. Although she was not proficient, she still had great strength. It was not difficult for her to carry a rich young lady.

They had just carried her to the guest room where Ah Yu was resting. Before they could find her a change of clothes, they saw a noblewoman rushing over.

The noblewoman did not look good. It was obvious that she was too worried. When she saw her wet daughter, she couldn’t care less that there were others around and tears suddenly flowed down her face.

“Qiao’er, you’ve worried Mother to death. Why did you fall into the lake?”

It turned out that the girl who fell into the water was actually the magistrate’s daughter, Qiao’er.

Qiao’er said, “Mother, 1 slipped and fell down accidentally.”

Hearing Qiao’er say this, All Yu was curious. “Could it be that the noblewoman who pushed you down has a high status, so you said that?” n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

When she said this, not only Qiao’er, but even the expression of the magistrate’s wife changed.

“Qiao’er, you were pushed down? How could you lie to Mother!” The magistrate’s wife became even sadder. “Don’t suffer for Mother. At most, we won’t go back to your maternal family in the future.”

“How can that do? Mother, I’m really fine. Cousin Yuan Yuan was just joking with me. She’ll never hurt me.” Qiao’er also started crying, and she couldn’t hold back the grievance in her eyes.

Ah Yu was puzzled when she saw this. She simply came out and looked for Qin Huai, who was waiting in the courtyard.

“Big Brother All You, there’s something 1 don’t understand.” All Yu sat down opposite Qin Huai and held her face with both hands, her big eyes filled with confusion.

She told him what she had heard in the house before saying to Qin Huai, “If I’m bullied outside, 1’11 definitely tell my family when 1 get home because only my family can support me. But that Big Sister Qiao’er would rather suffer than tell them the truth. Why? Is she just afraid of offending others?”

“You don’t have to think about this. No one will dare to let you suffer, let alone bully you.” If there was, he would definitely become a corpse.

Of course, Qin Huai did not say the last sentence, but his eyes turned much colder.

At the thought that someone had come to assassinate her and almost injured Ah Yu, Qin Huai almost could not control the anger in his heart.

If anyone dared to push Ah Yu into the water, he would chop off that person’s hands and feet and throw them down.

In the past few years of interacting with Ah Yu, he had almost never felt such a cruel and bloodthirsty emotion.

“Big Brother All You, Grandma said that life is unpredictable. No one can live their entire life without suffering grievances. However, after suffering grievances, we have to stand up for ourselves to avoid making the same mistakes and suffering the same grievances,” Little Ah Yu said logically. “I think Big Sister Qiao’er should have told her father and mother about this from the beginning. Perhaps her Cousin wasn’t even so overboard in the beginning. However, as she tolerated it repeatedly, the other party became even worse.”

Qin Huai nodded. “That’s true.”

Humans were greedy to begin with. It was also human nature to bully the weak and fear the strong.

The two of them were chatting when Wang Wulang happened to come over to look for All Yu. When he heard their conversation, he smiled and said, “All Yu, what are you debating again? What happened? Why is my cute sister frowning?”

Ah Yu said, “It’s nothing. We were just chatting casually. 1 miss Grandma and the others a little. After Magistrate Liu finishes investigating the case, we’ll leave here and go home quickly.”

“I was about to tell you that Magistrate Liu is quite fast at investigating cases. He happened to have a bandit imprisoned here. The arrow he used before he was captured was the same as the one you found.”

Before Wang Wulang could finish speaking, Wang Qilang ran in. Before he could take a breath, he hurriedly said, “We’re really in big trouble this time!” “What’s wrong? What happened?” Ah Yu walked forward and patted Wang Qilang’s back. When Wang Qilang caught his breath, she continued to ask, “Seventh Brother, what news did you hear?”

“Little Sister All Yu, Wulang, Third Brother and I were planning to go to the prison to see that so-called prisoner just now. Guess what? Just as we were about to ask the prisoner, a hidden weapon suddenly shot over from somewhere. That prisoner was killed in front of us!”

At this moment, even the big-hearted Wang Wulang gasped.

“They directly silenced him in the prison?!” Wang Wulang’s eyes widened.. “Doesn’t this mean that their people are still hiding in the government office? Then isn’t Ah Yu in danger!”
