Chapter forty-four
The prefect was a cheerful person, so he immediately called Master Qianliang to come up.
"Get five thousand taels of silver notes and give them to the lady of the Wu family!"
The master took the order and indeed received ten silver notes of five hundred taels per bill, and gave them to Wu Xin'an with both hands.
"The eldest lady of the Wu family bravely captured the Japanese pirates and rewarded 5,000 taels of silver. These are ten silver notes issued by Huitong Silver Village. Please ask the eldest lady to count them and sign and seal them on it!"
Wu Xinan took the silver note, but picked up the pen and looked at her own father.
"This...father...daughter doesn't know how to write names!"
Seeing this, Wu Hongwen was both funny and angry and teased her,
"You can even catch Japanese pirates, but you can't even write your own name, so you are not afraid of adults laughing!"
Wu Xinan laughed,
"Daughter didn't learn this? You will definitely be able to study hard when you go back and find a teacher to study hard!"
Wu Hongwen gave his daughter a blank look, and took a pen to help her write the name of the daughter. He turned his head and saw that her daughter brought a silver note of 1,000 taels to Huang Yongzhou with both hands and said with a smile,
"Sir, although my niece is young, I understand it in my heart. The reason why the Japanese pirates can be taken tonight was that the first night Lord Huang led the adults to work hard for several days. The Japanese pirate was injured the first night before, so he was picked up by his niece. The 5,000 taels of silver cannot be obtained by his niece..."
Huang Yongzhou looked at Wu Xin'an with a look of surprise, then looked at Wu Hongwen, who was also surprised, and then burst into laughter and pointed at Wu Hongwen and said repeatedly,
"Yifan! Yifan... Looking at your usual serious and old-fashioned appearance, I didn't expect to raise such a slick and sophisticated daughter... Hahaha... Interesting! It's interesting!"
Wu Hongwen was also secretly surprised, but she smiled bitterly on her face.
"The adults are making fun of Xiaguan. Xiaguan is busy with business on weekdays, but he has less discipline to this child. Please forgive me!"
In this way, Wu Xinan gave 5,000 taels of silver and gave another 500 taels of silver. He asked Wu Hongwen to come forward and invited all the uncles in the yamen to drink. After Wu Hongwen agreed, he said goodbye and left the government office.
Wu Hongwen sent his daughter out and looked at Wu Xinan deeply.
"An An, my father is busy these days. After the Japanese pirates are over, we still need to have a good talk!"
It is only today that Wu Hongwen realized that his eldest daughter is bold but also experienced, and she looks very slick in the world. This... she is not like a little girl from a mountain village, but like an old man who has been together for many years in the city!
Wu Xinan nodded,
"Father's business matters, just wait for his father at home!"
In this family, Mrs. Fu is just a paper tiger. Xiao Cheng is a little scheming but lacks his mind. Wu Hongwen is a clear-headed person. Some things can't be hidden from him, so Wu Xin'an doesn't want to hide them from him!
The father and daughter broke up in front of the government office. Wu Xin'an led a group of guards to the Wu Mansion. On the other side, Fu and Xiao Cheng received a letter, so naturally they could not sleep anymore. Seeing Wu Xin'an back, Xu's mother next to Xiao Cheng and Wen Su from Fu came to ask. Wu Xin'an did not hide it and said what Wu Hongwen said before. Everyone said it was very dangerous. Xu's mother was holding hands and praised her repeatedly.
"Blessed by Bodhisattva! It is true that Bodhisattva blessed by Bodhisattva!"
Wu Xinan said annoyed,
"It's just that I caught a Japanese pirate. If there is anything to ask, I will just catch it. Could it be that she can catch one?"
Guan's mother coaxed her,
"Only our eldest lady can do such things. Stop saying it is the old lady. Even if all the women in our backyard are added together, you are not as capable as the eldest lady... Then go over and tell them and let them know your power!"
While coaxing her, the house pushed the person up and put on clothes with the two girls guarding the side. Du Juan accompanied her to Dongyunyuan.
Wu Xin'an passed by, and all the girls and women in the martial arts mansion saw the eldest lady coming up to salute, and each of them looked at her expression, which really made her look a little bit awe.
"Miss!"
Wu Xinan was so sleepy that his eyes were blurred. He waved his hand weakly, and he was considered an answer.
Entering the main hall, I saw the old lady Fu, stepmother Cheng, Wu Huaide, Wu Xianrong, Wu Yuanzhen, Wu Lianzhen, Wu Youzhen, and Wu Youzhen, were all held in my arms. Except for Wu Hongwen, the whole family was all here!
Wu Xinan snorted coldly in her heart. She woke up a little while after she went up to greet Fu and Xiao Cheng.
"Grandmother, mother!"
Fu and Xiao Cheng also looked weird when they saw her, but Fu knew that this little girl had brute force. Last night, he heard about this incident and thought to himself,
"That wild girl is a bold and has some brute force. The Japanese pirates were caught off guard and could not say that they could tell her..."
Xiao Cheng didn't know about this, so he looked at Wu Xinan and became more and more surprised. He looked at Fu and asked,
"An An, I heard that you caught a Japanese pirate last night?"
Wu Xinan nodded,
"Mother, this is true!"
Xiao Cheng asked quickly,
"Then... the Japanese pirates are so cruel, how did you catch people?"
Wu Xinan said again what he said to everyone in front. Xiao Cheng and Fu looked at each other. Fu believed 70% of them and said in his heart,
"With that girl's brute force, I'm afraid that the thief's bad star is shining, she will really push her to the ground and knock her head!"
Xiao Cheng didn't believe it, so he asked again,
"That thief is so skilled in martial arts, how could An An hit his head when he pushed it?"
He still fell to the ground and couldn't move, so he asked this girl to get a bargain?
I heard... She received a silver reward of 5,000 taels last night!
Wu Xinan naturally knew that they must not believe it, but to say that it was them, even if the people in his yard did not see how the Japanese pirates were taken, he insisted that they were injured. They would not believe it!
At that moment, he spread his hands and asked Xiao Cheng,
"Then... according to my mother's opinion, which one can I pick out in the yard that I can fight and take the Japanese pirates?"
"this……"
Xiao Cheng was speechless for a moment, and his intuition was indeed the case. The old and small in the yard were, and it was a Chunhui Courtyard, and even the entire Wufu could not fight!
Thinking of this, I had to suppress my doubts and asked Wu Xin An An with a smile.
"It seems that we Anan really captured the Japanese pirates. That's really amazing..."
After saying that, he raised his thumbs up at Wu Xinan.
"I heard... An An still gets rewards from the yamen?"
Wu Xinan heard this and sneered in his heart.
