Chapter 214 - 214 Father and Daughter

214 Father and Daughter

The man stopped. “Steward Zhang.”

Steward Zhang said, “It’s your first day on the job. Don’t cause trouble for me. Pick up your things and get in the carriage!”

The man gritted his teeth, picked up the big box on the ground, glared at Su Cheng, and limped away.

Su Cheng grabbed his collar. “Did I let you leave?”

!!

The man didn’t expect Su Cheng to be asking for trouble when he had already let things rest!

“Warrior,” Steward Zhang said calmly. “What can I do for you?”

Su Cheng said coldly, “You want to leave just like that after hitting my child?”

His grandchild would not suffer this grievance!

The man mocked, “It was clear that wild child stood in my way…”

“Who did you call a wild child?”

Su Cheng slapped him!

The man staggered to the ground with the box.

Steward Zhang’s expression darkened.

“Grandpa, pee.”

Erhu wanted to pee.

Was he a grandfather at such a young age?Steward Zhang sized up Su Cheng strangely.

Su Cheng had a pair of swollen eyes that were like walnuts. It really affected his appearance, but for some reason, Steward Zhang vaguely felt that this person looked familiar.

He did not look like someone from a rich family…

Su Cheng said arrogantly, “I won’t argue with you today! Don’t let me see you again! Otherwise, I’ll beat you to death!”

With that, he raised his hand.

The man on the ground reflexively covered his head with his arm.

Su Cheng brought the three little ones to the toilet.

The man got up with an aggrieved expression. “Steward Zhang, you saw it too. That person was pestering me endlessly. Why didn’t you let me teach him a lesson?”

Steward Zhang snorted. “If you didn’t kick his child, would he have come to teach you a lesson?”

The man said awkwardly, “I didn’t use much strength. I just… swung my leg.”

Steward Zhang said angrily, “How old is that child? Can he withstand your kicks?”

The man muttered, “Isn’t he fine?”

Steward Zhang said coldly, “I asked you to work for the Protectorate because of Aunt. Don’t cause trouble for me! If you ruin the reputation of the Protectorate, don’t blame me for chasing you out!”

The aristocratic families cherished their reputation. As workers, they wore the clothes of the Protectorate and held the tokens of the Protectorate. Yet they dared to cause trouble on the streets. Regardless of whether they were instructed to do so, the reputation of the Protectorate would be affected.

Steward Zhang went to the alley opposite the street and bowed to a luxurious carriage. “High Duke, I’ve obtained the item.”

He presented it with both hands.

In the carriage, the man addressed as High Duke was the newly appointed Protector Duke, Qin Che. He was about the same age as Su Cheng and was very handsome. His clothes were luxurious and extraordinary, and his shoes were spotless.

He took the brocade box from Steward Zhang and asked unhurriedly, “What happened just now?”

Oh no, the Duke had seen him.

Steward Zhang secretly sweated and smiled awkwardly. “A child accidentally b.u.mped into w.a.n.g Dazhu’s leg. That child’s grandfather blamed w.a.n.g Dazhu for not dodging in time and knocking down his child. He gave w.a.n.g Dazhu a few blows. w.a.n.g Dazhu is feeling aggrieved now.”

“Is the child alright?” Qin Che asked with concern.

Steward Zhang smiled and said, “It’s fine. He b.u.mped into w.a.n.g Dazhu himself. w.a.n.g Dazhu didn’t move. He didn’t hit him hard.”

Qin Che said earnestly, “We can’t let others think that the Duke’s Estate is bullying others.”

Steward Zhang hurriedly said, “Yes, yes, yes. Don’t worry, we’ll remember! We won’t embarra.s.s the Duke’s Estate!”

“That’s good.” Qin Che played with the walnuts he had been holding for several years. “It’s getting late. It’s time to pick Yanran up.”

The eldest daughter of the Protector Duke, Qin Yanran, was 16 years old and was famous for being a talented woman in the capital. She was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Behind all of this was naturally hard work and sweat, as well as huge financial support.

Qin Yanran was learning the zither at the house of a palace musician today.

The tuition fee for a musician was expensive. Ordinary families could not afford it.

Not long after, Qin Che saw his daughter coming out of the house with the instrument case.

Qin Yanran was born shy and was a top beauty in the capital. Coupled with her talent and temperament, she had always been the apple of Qin Che’s eye.

“Father.”

Qin Yanran slowly bowed.

Her actions were dignified, and her voice was gentle.

This was the bearing of a n.o.ble lady.

Qin Che smiled dotingly. “Come up.”

Qin Yanran handed the zither to the maidservant at the side. Her fair fingers gently picked up her flowing dress and gently and elegantly got into the carriage.

Qin Yanran’s bearing had been taught by the teachers in the palace. Her every frown, smile, word, and action was indescribably beautiful.

It was unknown which family’s laurel was blooming brightly, but in front of Qin Yanran, it immediately lost its beauty.

“Why did Father come personally?” Qin Yanran sat down on the bench opposite Qin Che.

...

The wheels turned.

The carriage was extremely comfortable and luxurious, and it almost did not shake much.

Qin Che smiled and said, “I was pa.s.sing by and came to pick you up. How’s your learning with Master Zhang?”

Qin Yanran smiled and said, “Master Zhang praised me today. He said that my zither skills have improved greatly. It won’t be long before I can play ‘Phoenix Seeks the Phoenix’ with him.”

Qin Che raised his eyebrows. “Oh?”

Qin Che actually did not know music, let alone understand what song this so-called “Phoenix Seeks the Phoenix” was. For the song to be discussed in this way by his daughter, it must be an extremely difficult song.

Qin Che said, “Counting the days, the Third Prince should be returning to the capital. Our Yanran will be the Imperial Consort soon. You might not know, but when you were born, a monk gave the Protectorate of the Public House an order. He said that the daughter of the Protectorate has the life of the little phoenix. In the future, she will definitely be the mother of the world!”

Qin Yanran looked around. “Father! Be careful with your words.”

The Third Prince was not from the Central Palace. If anyone heard this, they would probably be labeled as traitors.

Qin Che laughed. “I’m just telling you. Don’t worry, Father won’t announce it to the public. However, if you really marry the Third Prince, then Father will help the Third Prince ascend to the throne even if I have to use my military power and family strength!”

Qin Yanran knew her limits and did not indulge in this topic.

...

“By the way, this is for you.” Qin Che handed Qin Yanran a brocade box. It was the one that Steward Zhang had taken out of the shop just now.

Qin Yanran opened it and a trace of surprise flashed across her beautiful eyes. “Father! This is… a necklace of South Sea Shark Beads?”

The so-called South Sea Shark Bead was actually a top-notch pearl produced in the South Sea. It was larger, rounder and fuller than ordinary pearls. It was priceless.

It was difficult for ordinary people to even take a look, but Qin Che bought a whole string for Qin Yanran. It was obvious how rich the Protectorate was.

“Do you like it?” Qin Che asked.

“I like it,” Qin Yanran said sincerely. “Thank you, Father.”

…

On the other side, after Erhu finished peeing, Dahu and Xiaohu also peed.

Su Cheng brought the three little ones to the market.

When he pa.s.sed by a stall, Su Cheng saw a beaded headband.

His daughter’s headband was old and she could not bear to change it.
