The Miracle Doctor’s Two-Faced Toddler

792 Domineering Brother Jiu, Torturing the Entire Scene

At dawn, the people in the courtyard woke up one after another. The little boy woke up three times last night. The first time, he fed him boiled goat milk. The second time, Zi Yan had milk. The old granny guarded Zi Yan’s room. Although she was not as agile as the young people, she was very meticulous in taking care of Zi Yan and her son.

The maidservant went to make breakfast.

Last night, Qing Yan and Yue Gou had already gone to the market to buy a large pile of food. There were white rice grains in the rice jar, and there were also smoked chickens, ducks, and cured meat in the cupboard. There were dozens of pounds of them. It was difficult at home, and Madam Lan no longer ate meat or fish. Every day, she only asked the maidservant to cook two eggs and a bowl of brown sugar water for Zi Yan. The maidservant was so craving for meat that she was about to cry. When she saw so many ingredients, her eyes almost lit up.

The maidservant made an incomparably sumptuous breakfast. After scooping it for the masters, she and the old granny also received a bowl of stewed meat each and ate it deliciously.

“Ah…” Shadow Six stared at the stew in his bowl, at a loss.

“What’s wrong?” Qing Yan asked.

Shadow Six did not eat fat meat. But he did not say anything. Shadow Thirteen silently picked up the meat from his bowl, put the fat meat into his bowl, and put the thin one back. Shadow Six ate heartily.

Qing Yan smiled.

After breakfast, Shadow Thirteen and Shadow Six went to the city gate. Coincidentally, the guard guarding the city was the guard from yesterday.

Shadow Thirteen was tall, had a cold temperament, and was very handsome. It was easy to remember such a face.

When the guard saw that it was him, he sized him up. “What are you doing here again? Are you trying to use a fake token to bluff your way in again? Let me warn you, the Nether Capital is not so easy to get close to.”

Shadow Thirteen ignored his mockery and only said with a cold expression, “Send a message to the Saintess. If you want the jade token in Master Lan Qin’s hand, come to the outside of the city personally.”

When the guard heard this, his expression instantly changed. “Who are you?”

Shadow Thirteen glanced at him indifferently and couldn’t be bothered to answer him. He left with Shadow Six. After they had walked far away, Shadow Six turned around. “Did you hear that? Let her come personally! Otherwise, there’s no way!”

The guard frowned, wondering when such a person had appeared in the Lan family. Since it was a message for the Saintess, the guard did not dare to be negligent. He immediately sent someone to the Lan family to pass on Shadow Thirteen’s words.

About two hours later, a luxurious carriage left the city gate and stopped at the entrance of the Lan family’s courtyard.

The maidservant was washing the boy’s diaper in the front yard when she suddenly saw a group of guards rush into the courtyard. She was so frightened that her hand trembled and the diaper fell!

After the guards filled the courtyard, they respectfully lined up on both sides. At this moment, the curtain of the carriage was lifted by the coachman. A middle-aged man in brocade clothes bent down and walked down.

He walked up to the little maidservant and asked with a faint smile, “Where’s your master?”

The maidservant pointed at Madam Lan’s room fearfully. The middle-aged man no longer looked at her and walked over with an unrestrained expression.

Yu Wan was carrying the little boy for Madam Lan to see when she suddenly heard the commotion outside the door. Yu Wan and Madam Lan looked behind the screen.

Madam Lan narrowed her eyes and said to Yu Wan, “Sit here and don’t go out.”

Yu Wan nodded. Madam Lan walked around the screen with her walking stick and sat at the master seat. Yu Wan carried the little boy closer to the screen and looked out from the gap. She saw an energetic middle-aged man in luxurious clothes walk in with a smile.

He smiled maliciously. “Master Lan Qin, long time no see. How have you been?” The middle-aged man cupped his hands at Madam Lan.

Madam Lan was naturally not as glorious as before, but that aura from the inside out was not something that could be covered by coarse linen clothes.

Madam Lan glanced at him coldly and said, “I was wondering who it was. So it’s a dog by Lan Jiao’s side. My humble house is simple. What are you doing here, Steward Yue?”

Steward Yue was not too angry after being humiliated. He smiled and said in a pleasant tone, “Master ordered me to visit you.”

Madam Lan sneered. “Master? Heh, did I admit it?”

Steward Yue smiled faintly. “Whether you admit it, it doesn’t matter. She’s the only one living in the Lan Manor now. She gave birth to a saintess for the Lan family, you…”

As he spoke, he looked at the screen unintentionally. He had already sensed a baby boy behind the screen. Steward Yue smiled and said, “I have to congratulate you on obtaining a great-grandchild first. It seems to be a grandson, right?”

The clothes hanging outside the house clearly belonged to a boy. All of Madam Lan’s hopes were placed on this child. But now, he was a boy and had no fate with the bloodline of the Saintess. No matter what, he could not turn things around.

Madam Lan looked at him coldly.

Steward Yue said, “Of course, one never visits unless they need something. Other than visiting you today, I have another important matter to discuss with you.”

Madam Lan snorted. “If it’s about the jade token, then I advise you to give up. My people should have made things very clear. If you want the Lan family’s jade token, get the Saintess to see me personally!”

Steward Yue smiled and said, “The Saintess is busy every day and really can’t find the time. Master ordered me to talk to you.”

Wow, wasn’t that illegitimate daughter of the Lan family called Lan Jiao too arrogant? They specifically asked the Saintess to negotiate, but in the end, they didn’t let the Saintess appear. At least she should come herself, but she only sent a mere steward. Wasn’t this a slap to Grand-aunt Lan’s face?

Yu Wan approached the gap in the screen. Coincidentally, Steward Yue looked over again. Yu Wan met a pair of scheming eyes. There was still deep disdain in their eyes, as if the people living in this courtyard were not the former Lan family, but a group of ants that he could trample on.

“Annoying fellow,” Yu Wan murmured, not forgetting to cover the little boy’s ears. The little boy looked at Yu Wan in confusion. “Shh.” Yu Wan gestured for him to keep quiet.

The conversation in the room continued.

Steward Yue patiently tempted him. “Master said that as long as you’re willing to hand over the Lan family’s jade token, she’ll forget the past and forgive you for once offending the Saintess. She’ll bring you and the little master back to the Nether Capital and buy a courtyard for you. She’ll choose servants and let you live the rest of your life in glory. As for the little master, you don’t have to worry. Master will ask the teacher to carefully nurture him and let him grow up.”

Madam Lan was trembling with anger.

Steward Yue said with a fake smile, “Of course, if these things can’t satisfy you, what other conditions do you have? Just tell me. If I can agree, I’ll agree on behalf of the family head. Ah, right, First Master and Second Master are still suffering in the prison. Even if you don’t plan for yourself and the little master, you have to think for them. I heard that their bodies aren’t very good either. They might die while living in the prison one day.”

First Master, Second Master? Her uncles? These bastards had captured her uncles and thrown them into prison?

Yu Wan looked at Madam Lan and saw that she was so angry that her nails dug into her flesh.

Steward Yue smiled sarcastically and said, “Why do you think you’re doing this? You’re already an arrow at the end of its flight. The jade token is useless in your hands. Why don’t you sell it to Master? Master knows how to repay kindness and will definitely not let you suffer.”

Madam Lan gritted her teeth and said, “She seduced my brother-in-law and killed my sister. Is this her way of repaying her kindness? Go back and tell her that even if I die, I won’t hand the jade token to her! However, the Saintess is the most special existence of my Lan family after all. I can give the Saintess’ face, but the condition is that she comes personally!”

Steward Yue smiled and said disdainfully, “I might as well tell you the truth. You’re not qualified to see the Saintess!”

Madam Lan was furious. “Then I’ll never give it to you even if I destroy the jade token!”

Steward Yue said coldly, “Do you think you and your sons and grandsons can still live without the jade pendant?”

Madam Lan smiled happily and said, “Our Lan family is not afraid of death!”

Steward Yue naturally understood that what she said was true. It was obvious how strong the Lan family was from the fact that they had used all kinds of methods for so many years but still found nothing.

Steward Yue said coldly, “Old thing, don’t be shameless.”

“Who are you calling an old thing?” Yu Wan walked out with the little boy in her arms.

Steward Yue was the steward who had entered the Lan family later on and had never seen the previous two matriarchs, so he did not know Yu Wan’s face that was somewhat similar to theirs. When he saw Yu Wan carrying a child, he immediately said in disdain, “You’re that maidservant who climbed into your young master’s bed? Do you think you’re so great after giving birth to Young Master’s child? Why don’t you take a look at yourself? The Lan Manor doesn’t recognize you. Even if you give birth to eight to ten children, they’re all bastard children—”

Bang!

Before he could finish his sentence, Steward Yue was thrown out by a huge force and fell hard to the ground. His ribs were broken on the spot!

A cold foot stepped on his face, as if he was stepping on a helpless ant.

The guards in the courtyard wanted to save him, but they were all suppressed by a huge internal energy.

Yan Jiuchao looked down at him. “Who did you say was a bastard just now?”

Half of Steward Yue’s face was stepped into the mud. He had been a steward of the Lan family for many years, but no one had ever dared to touch him, let alone be seriously injured and stepped on his face.

He was furious. “You… you…”

Yan Jiuchao narrowed his cold eyes. “You said I’m a bastard?”

Yan Jiuchao stepped on Steward Yue’s head and it exploded.

Steward Yue, whose soul was stunned: “…”

Damn it! I just want to ask who you are!
