The mysterious milk group, hands on hips, is being fought over by five dads who are going crazy over

Upon hearing this, Qiao Wan glanced at Ying Xia and gave the order:

"Go check the situation at the gate of the mansion."

"Yes."

As the year draws to a close, groups of maids and servants can be seen carrying things past the courtyard in an orderly fashion.

Soon, Yingxia returned, her steps hurried, almost bumping into a servant passing by Biyou Courtyard.

Yingxia steadied herself and quickly walked up to Qiao Wan, her expression somewhat serious.

"My lord, I went to the gate of the mansion to ask."

"The guard said that someone did indeed come today claiming to have been invited by you and wanted to enter the manor, but the person was dressed in rags. Aunt Su happened to return to the manor and, thinking he was a beggar, gave him two steamed buns to send him away..."

"What?" Qiao Wan had a feeling something was wrong.

How could it be such a coincidence that a beggar came to her door with the same excuse just as she was writing a letter inviting him to her home?

"What were the person's distinguishing features? Did they say anything else?"

Yingxia: "According to the guard, he was dressed in rags, with many holes in his clothes, and his face was so dark that his features were unrecognizable. Only a brocade pouch hanging from his waist looked valuable, but Aunt Su suspected that he stole it..."

"Oh, by the way, Master, that person also took out a damaged letter!"

Qiao Wan frowned: "Where's the letter?"

"The letter... was torn up by Aunt Su..."

"!!!" Qiao Wan immediately stood up, flicking her sleeves, "Outrageous!"

"This Su Xiaoyin has become incredibly audacious!"

"Quickly, go and tell Huo Ting this news right away! Also, find two men to guard the gate and have those two guards bring the person back to me!"

Yingxia hesitated for a moment: "Master, that...that beggar...could he really be the distinguished guest you invited?"

Qiao Wan's expression was not good. "If I'm not mistaken, it's the same person. Although I don't know why he's dressed in such tattered clothes, it should be the same person."

Yingxia was startled for a moment, then quickly curtsied. "This servant will go and report to the Prime Minister immediately!"

Things happened so suddenly that A-Ning was a little confused. "Mother, so Father did come, but they chased him away, right?"

Qiao Wan gently patted the child's head and said softly, "A-Ning, don't worry, Mother will handle it. I will never let your godfather be bullied."

Bully?

Bullying Uncle Gu?

Ah Ning blinked blankly, thinking that her mother had misunderstood and that she didn't mean it that way.

But Qiao Wan was busy sending people out to search for her and had no time to deal with her.

Aning could only stand there, clutching the storybook, watching her mother bustling about.

Aning wasn't worried at all that Uncle Gu would be bullied.

The person in the world who would never let himself be wronged is Grandpa Gu.

Instead, she was worried about the two people guarding the gate of the mansion, and the wicked aunt who said her father was a beggar. Were they alright now...?

-

Su Xiaoyin emerged from the outhouse in the seventh chapter, collapsing weakly onto the couch, her face a mixture of exhaustion and bewilderment.

"What exactly happened?"

"Why have I been going to the toilet constantly since I got home? And why does my stomach hurt so much?"

Seeing no response, she slammed the teacup beside her onto the ground. "Didn't you hear me?! Where's the doctor? Is this doctor going to stay for a year? Why hasn't he come to see me yet?!"

"My lady, please don't worry," the maid said cautiously. "We've already sent someone to fetch a doctor, and he'll be here soon!"

"Fast?" Su Xiaoyin looked incredulous, her face turning green. "I've run to the toilet seven times! And I haven't even seen a shadow of someone. Is that what you call fast?"

"What the hell are you doing?! I've been here today—"

She had only said half of what she was saying when Su Xiaoyin clutched her stomach and hissed twice, unable to utter another curse. Forgetting all manners and decorum, she bent over and ran to the outhouse!

The maid could only shake her head and sigh twice before hurrying after her, only daring to mutter under her breath:

"It's clearly because you're going to the toilet too often..."

"Seven times, and that's less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn..."

At the same time, Yingxia arrived at the gate of the mansion with two guards, only to find that there was only one guard there.

The guard was clutching his stomach and stamping his feet, his face contorted in pain, as if he were suffering greatly from abdominal pain...

Yingxia frowned and stepped forward, asking, "I was fine when I came here, how come my stomach suddenly hurts? Did you eat something bad for lunch?"

She glanced outside a couple more times. "Where's the one who used to guard the gate with you? Where did he go? Why are you all alone?"

The guard looked embarrassed, opened his mouth as if to say something, but instead a loud fart escaped—

Everyone present seemed frozen in place, covering their mouths and remaining motionless.

Yingxia covered her mouth with her sleeve, rolling her eyes from the stench.

It wasn't that she didn't want to get away, but the stench came so fast and so strongly that it caught her completely off guard, leaving her no time to run away!

The guard, also covering his nose with his face flushed red, gestured wildly at the two guards behind Yingxia before hurriedly running away.

It took quite a while for the pungent smell to completely dissipate...

Yingxia walked a little further away, took two deep breaths, and suppressed the urge to vomit to calm herself down.

"What happened to him? Did he eat croton oil?"

"I don't know! I've never smelled such a stinky fart before! It stinks even worse than a latrine!"

The two guards, equally unable to bear it, continued to hold their noses and complain to each other.

Yingxia stepped forward and said, "Alright, alright, you two can stay here and take their place. I'll go back and report to Madam!"

Biyou Courtyard.

Having just heard the news that Su Xiaoyin was suffering from persistent diarrhea, and then Yingxia brought back news that the guards were also running straight to the outhouse, Qiao Wan finally came to her senses and looked at A Ning suspiciously.

"This was... done by your godfather?"

Upon hearing this, Ah Ning scratched her head somewhat embarrassedly, her cheeks flushed, and her tone was as if she were talking about her own unruly and naughty child.

"Oh dear, that's just how Father Gu is. If anyone bullies or offends him, he'll never let them get away with it."

Qiao Wan was amused by her, "Then your Uncle Gu is quite interesting."

"Who told those mean aunties to insist that Daddy was a beggar and even tore up the letter you wrote to him?" Ah Ning snorted. "Besides, Daddy Gu hates eating the most!"

"You hate eating?" Qiao Wan asked, somewhat puzzled.

What kind of person would hate eating?

Ah Ning raised her chin matter-of-factly and said crisply, "Of course! Uncle Gu eats just to live!"

"Besides, he hates steamed buns the most!"

"That mean auntie not only scolded Daddy, but she also fed him steamed buns! Daddy must be super angry right now, that's why their stomachs hurt!"

Qiao Wan was completely confused. "Why would you hate steamed buns?"

Upon hearing this, Ah Ning thought for a moment, then shook her head.

"Ah Ning doesn't know either."

"I only remember one time when Grandma gave Grandpa Gu some steamed buns, and he only glanced at them before spitting them out..."
