The daily life of a space tycoon raising children, doting on his husband, and farming.

Chapter 197 Two People

Before his hand could touch Shang Wan, a huge gray wolf suddenly leaped in, its mouth open, and lunged at Yu Er.

Yu Er was startled and quickly dodged away.

The gray wolf lowered its head, its green beastly eyes fixed on him, ready to attack at any moment.

Yu Er had no suitable weapon on him, and cursed the damned beast under his breath. He retreated step by step, and when he passed Yuan Yuan lying down, he reached out and picked up the baby. He then used his lightness skill to turn around and run away.

"Ouch——"

The howl of wolves followed closely behind, and the gray wolves gave chase.

"Brother, deal with this beast quickly!" Yu Er shouted, already leaping up the big tree in the yard.

Hearing the shouts, Yu Da grabbed a hoe and came out of the woodshed, his eyes gleaming coldly, and swung it forcefully at the gray wolf.

The gray wolf nimbly dodged, and at the same time, pairs of bright, beastly eyes suddenly appeared by the courtyard wall, like lanterns in the night. The wolf pack, summoned by the wolf king, surrounded the two brothers, ready to have a midnight snack.

"Damn it! Where did all these wolves come from?" Yu Da said, waving his hoe to scare the wolves away as he backed up until he leaned against a tree trunk.

"There's a small door over there." Yu Er suddenly remembered that there was a small door in the courtyard wall that was still open at dusk, and these wolves must have come in through the small door.

The wolves surrounded him, and with a light touch of his toes, he leaped onto the tree trunk.

He glanced at the baby Yu Er was holding and asked, "Did you kill that woman?"

"No, I was just about to make a move when the wolf ran in." Yu Er was secretly annoyed that the beast had run out and ruined his plans.

Now the yard is full of wolves, and the biggest wolf is guarding the entrance to the main room. If they try to rush in and kill again, they're unlikely to escape unscathed.

"Brother, I should have used poison."

"This child must live." Yu Da pointed at Yuan Yuan. "If we poison her, who will we ask for our riches and glory from?"

Yu Er glanced down at the baby in his arms, and thinking of the benefits he was about to receive, his resentment subsided somewhat.

As the two were talking, a faint light appeared in the woodshed.

Yu Da glanced at the already burning woodshed and waved to Yu Er, "Let's go, we shouldn't stay here any longer."

Even though Yu Er was unwilling, he had no choice but to leave.

Using their light-footed skills, the two of them scaled the courtyard wall one after the other.

Yu Da, mindful of Yu Er's leg injury, took Yuanyuan from his arms and carried her down the hillside to where they had hidden things.

Yu Er kept turning back, his eyes and face filled with resentment.

After resting for two days, he will definitely bring people back to visit.

At the same time, in the main room, the woman who was lying face down as if unconscious suddenly opened her eyes.

She turned her neck, tapped the table, and stood up. "They're gone. Stop pretending."

"Finally gone."

One by one, the people who were lying on the table stood up, except for Chu Xu.

Everyone else's Chinese medicine was fake, only his was genuine.

There are some things that are not suitable for young children to participate in.

"I'll go after them and see. You all follow my instructions." Shang Wan said, then swayed slightly and chased after Yu Da and the other man in the direction they had fled.

Down the hillside, Yu Da found the tree he had marked, handed the doll in his arms to Yu Er, and then squatted down to dig with a stone.

Yu Er looked around warily and urged Yu Da to hurry up with the digging.

Yu Da dug silently. Because it had just rained in the afternoon and he had dug before, the soil was loose, so he dug very quickly.

After digging about half an arm's length deep, a bundle wrapped in oil paper was revealed.

Yu Er suddenly called out to him, "Brother, the baby's awake!" Yu Da was taken aback. The medicine was enough to keep him asleep until tomorrow morning, how could he wake up so quickly?

Yuanyuan still looked like a little kitten. Yu Er's hug made her uncomfortable, so the little one kicked her short legs unhappily, looked up with her big eyes, puffed out her cheeks, and glared at Yu Er, "Bad!"

"Hey, you dare to curse me? You're asking for a slap!" Yu Er grabbed the baby with one hand and raised the other, slapping the little boy's bottom.

"what!"

A scream echoed through the night sky.

Before the slap could even touch the baby, a pebble, carrying immense force, flew through the palm, leaving a bloody, mangled hole from which blood flowed freely.

Yu Er trembled in pain and reflexively threw the doll in his arms away.

Suddenly flying up, Yuan Yuan blinked her big, bewildered eyes and quickly called out in her little voice, "Mommy!"

"Here it comes." The green figure arrived like a ghost, catching the doll flying in mid-air and casually crippling the screaming chicken on the ground with a few kicks.

Did she consent to anyone hitting her child?
"You don't have Chinese medicine?" Yu Da stared in astonishment at the woman who had suddenly appeared.

Shang Wan pouted, "I'm not as stupid as you guys. The drug has such a strong smell, are you afraid others won't be able to smell it?"

She could smell the medicine as soon as Yu Da took it back; she didn't know where this guy got his confidence from.

"Since you already knew, why did you pretend to be unconscious to deceive us?"

There were many reasons, but Shang Wan didn't have time to explain them to him. She looked down at the baby in her arms, "Sweetie, cover your ears."

Yuanyuan listened to her mother very well, raised her two little hands to cover her little ears, and buried her little face in Shang Wan's shoulder.

"Good boy." Shang Wan's lips curved into a smile. She raised her foot and stepped on Yu Er's injured hand, grinding it heavily until she heard a scream of pain.

"Wait!" Yu Da exclaimed, clutching his bundle. "What exactly do you want?"

"I have a few questions for you," Shang Wan said, looking at him. "I hope you will answer truthfully."

Yu Da: "Let go of Yu Er first."

"No rush." ​​Shang Wan stomped her feet again. "I will let him go after you finish answering."

Yu Er let out another scream, his body convulsing in pain, and he hissed, "Brother!"

Yu Da was extremely anxious; if he stepped on it again, his hand would be ruined.

He said to Shang Wan, "Hurry up and ask!"

Shang Wan looked up at him, her gaze icy, "Tell me everything you know about Zhong Chenghong."

“I only knew he was from the capital and had powerful backers, but I didn’t know anything else.” Yu Da took out two silver notes from his bundle. “He found us two brothers, gave us a thousand taels of silver, and asked us to protect him all the way and also help him kill someone.”

Shang Wan glanced at the silver notes in his hand. "That's all?"

Yu Da nodded, glanced at her feet, and said, "Zhong Chenghong is dead, why would I lie to you?"

Shang Wan sneered; even at this point, they still wanted to trick her into revealing information.

She never said that Zhong Chenghong was dead.

"It seems you don't value your younger brother Yu Er very much."

Shang Wan said regretfully, raising her foot to stomp on Yu Er's head. If the stomp landed, Yu Er's brains would splatter out.

"Wait!" Yu Da was so frightened that his pupils shrank to pinpoints. He knelt down and kowtowed to Shang Wan, "Please, Madam, have mercy and spare Yu Er's life."

Shang Wan's foot landed lightly on Yu Er's head, "Whether his life can be saved or not is up to you."

Yu Da originally thought that Shang Wan would keep them to work and wouldn't kill them easily, at most giving them a beating. He didn't expect Shang Wan to be so ruthless and go straight for their lives.

He dared not harbor any more illusions and hurriedly said, "I said, Zhong Chenghong wanted us to kill two people. We already killed one on the way here, and you are the second."
