After marrying the fierce god, her handsome young husband was pampered to the extreme.

Xia Ying sighed almost imperceptibly.

He knew that his young master had a knot in his heart, which couldn't be untied with just a few words.

"Then I won't bother you anymore. You should get some rest and not overwork yourself."

Lin Nian nodded, "Take care, Second Brother-in-law."

Stepping out of the room, Lin Er pulled her husband aside and asked, "How are you feeling, Nian-ge'er?"

Xia Ying shook her head, and just as she was about to say something, she saw Lin Nian running out in a panic.

He held the jade pendant, his hands trembling uncontrollably, and his voice trembled as he spoke, "Second brother, second brother-in-law, where did you get this jade pendant from?"

Lin Er and Xia Ying exchanged a glance, both seeing confusion in each other's eyes.

Lin Er said, "This is an exhibit from Ruyi Pawnshop at this year's Chamber of Commerce. I thought it looked nice, so I bought it. Nian-ge'er, is there anything wrong with this jade pendant?"

Lin Nian was in tears, and her voice broke down several times. It took her a long time to find her voice again. "This is A-Cheng's Northern Tiger Tally."

Lin Er and Xia Ying were immediately shocked.

This was the first time in three years that Lin Nian had received a message from Yin Cheng; he was determined to go to Hongfeng County.

The Lin family members knew that Yin Cheng was a source of deep concern for him, so they did not stop him.

Lin Er originally planned to write a letter to his elder brother, asking him to escort his younger brother to Hongfeng County.

Lin Nian refused. He set off overnight with a few trusted confidants, afraid of missing any news about the man.

This matter could not be kept from the emperor. After hearing about it, the emperor quickly made arrangements and sent a team of 5,000 elite soldiers to Hongfeng County.

That day, Le Haochuan went to the county town as usual to buy wine for Old Man Xue. The family that brewed wine in the village had moved to the county town some time ago.

Old Xue was so fond of drinking that he had to go to the county town every few days.

While passing through a small alley, Le Haochuan and Ma Erquezi met unexpectedly.

He was carrying a burlap sack on his back, and no one knew what was inside. He was moving around quite lively.

Ma Er the Cripple's face wasn't fully healed yet; the mottled scars looked terrifying.

The moment he saw Le Haochuan, the hatred that burst forth in his eyes almost materialized.

For some reason, he took two steps back and tried to run away.

Le Haochuan greeted him lazily, "What a coincidence, Second Cripple."

Upon hearing the sound, Ma Er the Cripple took even bigger steps.

Yin Cheng casually plucked a leaf and flew it over. The thin leaf stuck into the wall in front of Ma Er Quezi's eyes, and it went deep into the wood.

According to Old Man Xue, he has now reached the eighth level of the Heavenly Extreme Heart Sutra, and he has few rivals in the world.

He himself didn't seem to feel anything about it.

Ma Er Quezi swallowed hard, thinking that if the leaf flew at him, he would be dead!

At this moment, the sack moved even more violently, and two childish whimpers were heard.

There was a child in the sack!

This Ma Erquezi is a local scoundrel who has a habit of committing crimes. This time, he probably wants to kidnap someone else's child.

Could it be Song Wuyue?

With this in mind, Le Haochuan flashed in front of Ma Er the Cripple, snatched the sack, and kicked him at the same time.

Ma Er the Cripple didn't even have time to cry out in pain before he immediately fainted.

When Le Haochuan opened the sack, he didn't see Song Wuyue, but a beautifully sculpted little baby.

The little baby looks about two or three years old. His rosy cheeks are extremely cute, and the "Fu" mark on his forehead is bright and beautiful.

Her features were perfectly proportioned, delicate yet sweet, with long eyelashes like small fans, and especially her big, watery eyes that blinked constantly.

Her clothes and appearance were like those of a wealthy family's child, with a longevity lock made of gold around her neck and a jade bracelet on her wrist.

No wonder Ma Er the Cripple wanted to kidnap this little kid. Le Haochuan has been here for more than three years, and this is the first time he has seen such a good-looking child.

He untied the ropes binding the baby and removed the gag from its mouth.

As soon as the little baby was free, he burst into tears, his little shoulders trembling, looking extremely pitiful.

Le Haochuan panicked immediately, "Don't cry."

He clumsily wiped away the little baby's tears, "What's your name?"

The little child sobbed, "My name is Pearl."

It has fair and delicate skin, and does indeed resemble a lustrous pearl.

"Okay, Pearl, where do you live? I'll take you home."

Pearl said in her sweet, childish voice, "I live in a big house."

Le Haochuan: "..." Okay, I know you're a rich second generation.

He picked up Pearl and leaped onto the roof. "Find it yourself. Where do you live?"

Pearl stared at him for a long time, then suddenly hugged his neck and called out in a clear voice, "Daddy!"

Le Haochuan slipped and almost fell.

He said sternly, "When you're out in the world, don't randomly claim someone as your father, understand?"

Pearl pouted, "Daddy said Daddy can fly. You can fly, so you're Daddy!"

"Don't always call anyone who knows kung fu 'Dad'." Le Haochuan pinched the child's soft cheek. "Hurry up and look, where do you live?"

Pearl couldn't listen to anything else; she just kept trying to get close to Le Haochuan.

"Father, Father, Pearl misses you."

Le Haochuan said expressionlessly, "Hurry up and find your home, or I'll throw you down there."

Pearl whined and pleaded, "Daddy, don't leave Pearl behind, Pearl will be good."

Despite not getting any useful information from Le Haochuan for a long time, he was surprisingly patient and didn't feel tired while holding the baby.

"Where is your family?" Le Haochuan asked. "Where's your stepfather?"

Pearl thought about it seriously for a long time, then gestured and said, "Little Daddy is also in the big house."

Well, looks like he's a little fool.

The silly boy said, "What a big, round thing! It makes a loud noise!"

Le Haochuan asked, "Where is Yuanyuan?"

"At the door! Round! Ring!" Pearl said, looking at him with a smug expression, as if waiting for his praise.

There was a round object at the entrance that made a sound, and Le Haochuan quickly came to the answer: the county government office!

You wouldn't guess this little fool is actually from an official family.

"Okay, I know where you live now."

Le Haochuan carried Pearl to the county government office. Just as he reached the entrance, he saw a husband rushing out.

As soon as he saw the pearl, he rushed over and tried to forcibly take it away.

Le Haochuan took a few steps back. "Pearl, do you know him?"

Pearl nodded. "He's my wet nurse."

The man said fiercely, "Where did you come from, you little thief? How dare you kidnap a child! Give me back the child right now, or you'll regret it!"

Since they already knew each other, Le Haochuan didn't stop him when he tried to take the child again.

For some reason, Le Haochuan always felt extremely uncomfortable looking at him.

This person's first reaction was not to care about the child's safety, but to shirk responsibility.

If he had kept a close eye on the children, how could Ma Erquezi have had any opportunity to take advantage of them?

Pearl didn't want to leave Le Haochuan's embrace. He tried to reach out and grab his father, but his husband pressed him down.

"Look at his shabby appearance, young master, you should stay away from him to avoid catching his bad luck and displeasing the lord."

Le Haochuan was too lazy to argue with him and turned to leave.

Pearl started to cry.

"Oh dear, my little darling, why are you crying?"

Just then, Lin Nian rode his four-pointed white horse back to the county government office.

Pearl cried even louder, struggling to get down from her husband's arms and running to Lin Nian's side, "Little Daddy, waaaah, Pearl saw Daddy!"
