"Madam, there's news from the housekeeper that something has happened at home, so please go back first."

The voice of the guard was heard outside the door. Xiao Cui opened the door and understood the situation before reporting to Lin Wanwan.

"Then let's go back. We've been out for quite some time today!"

He threw the half-eaten melon seeds onto the table. It turned out that the storyteller in this teahouse was quite talented.

The stories told were vivid and interesting, and even she, an old bookworm who had read countless novels, felt that she wanted more.

"Madam, come this way. There's a car waiting for us downstairs!"

Xiao Cui led the way, and the few of them quickly left the teahouse.

Shortly after they left, the teahouse was surrounded by Zhang's army.

"You all have to keep watch over me. Don't let even a fly out."

Zhang Hansheng did not personally participate in this operation, but sent Adjutant Yang instead.

Soon, the Japanese soldiers hiding in the box were captured. After catching the people they wanted, Adjutant Yang led the team away.

Only the panicked guests were left, and they no longer had the heart to continue listening to the book in the teahouse. They packed up their things and left quickly.

This incident helped Zhang Hansheng a lot. That night, he not only sent a box of storybooks to Lin Wanwan, but also bought her a lot of gold and silver jewelry.

Several days had passed since this incident, but the chaos in Nanping Prefecture did not stop immediately.

Because of the unrest outside, Lin Wanwan was also ordered to stay at home and not go out.

If she wanted anything, the servants in the mansion would go out and buy it. She was bored staying in the mansion, so she followed the housekeeper and learned to play mahjong.

It took Lin Wanwan several days to go from losing 10 out of 9 games at the beginning to being evenly matched in the end.

What she didn't expect was that the little maid Xiao Cui beside her was the best in the mansion at playing mahjong.

Even the old fox of the housekeeper is no match for her.

Even though Lin Wanwan has gone from a novice to an expert, Xiao Cui is still the best at playing Mahjong in the mansion.

【Ding! 】

[Host, Zhang Hansheng and his men have been ambushed and are now trapped in Xujiawan. Your commander has been seriously injured. If you don't take action, he may not be able to come back this time? ]

That day, Lin Wanwan was playing Mahjong with Xiao Cui and the others when suddenly she heard the anxious voice of 3628 in her mind.

"what?"

After hearing what the system said, Lin Wanwan exclaimed.

When the others heard the Marshal's wife suddenly shout, they all looked at her strangely.

"Ma'am, what happened?"

There is no distinction between the old and the young at the mahjong table, but Lin Wanwan is the wife of the Marshal after all, so no one dares to really ignore her.

"Someone, go get Doctor Zhang to come to the back door."

"Butler, give me the key to the car parked in the garage."

Lin Wanwan didn't have time to explain to them. After explaining everything, she quickly returned to her room.

First, I changed out of the complicated women's clothing and put on clothes that were easy to move in.

"Ma'am, what happened? Where are you going?"

When Xiao Cui saw Lin Wanwan's actions, she could only circle around her anxiously, but she could never guess her intentions.

"Something happened to the Marshal, I have to go to rescue him."

"Xiao Cui, go change into some men's clothes and come with me later. If you're too slow, I won't wait for you."

After hearing what Lin Wanwan said, Xiao Cui originally wanted to dissuade her, but seeing that Lin Wanwan was determined, she stopped talking.

He quickly returned to his room, found the set of clothes at the back of the closet, changed as quickly as possible, and rushed to the backyard where the car was parked.

Sure enough, as soon as she stepped into the backyard, she saw Lin Wanwan had already driven the car to the door.

"Come up."

Lin Wanwan opened the passenger door and Xiao Cui sat in it immediately.

"Madam, where are you going?"

The housekeeper realized what was happening and followed, looking at the rear of the car with an anxious look on his face.

"Is Doctor Zhang here?"

"I'll take Doctor Zhang out for a while and will be back soon. Please take care of the house."

"You can prepare some medicine secretly. Don't alert outsiders, and don't let anyone know that I'm out."

Lin Wanwan pushed down the brim of her hat, whispered a few words to Butler Zhang, and drove out of the backyard gate.

"Ma'am, where are we going?"

Doctor Zhang was forcibly dragged over by the old housekeeper, and was now trying to tidy up his messed-up clothes with a look of embarrassment on his face.

"Let's go find the Marshal. If we run into any danger later, just protect yourselves and don't worry about me."

Lin Wanwan was driving while giving instructions to the two of them.

"Madam, don't worry. The reason why the Marshal sent me to your side is because I learned martial arts from my father and brother for several years."

"Xiao Cui, I can not only protect myself, but also you, my lady!"

Lin Wanwan really didn't expect that Xiao Cui seemed straightforward on weekdays, but she had never shown any skills.

If it weren't for this sudden situation, Lin Wanwan would probably have to wait a long time before discovering this secret.

"Then I'll leave my life and property to you. However, I've learned a few things since I was a kid wandering around alone. I may not be able to fight, but I should be able to escape."

"So, if there is an emergency, you should protect Doctor Zhang and quickly find the Marshal and the others."

As Lin Wanwan spoke, she took out the bag at her feet and handed it to Xiao Cui.

"This bag contains some western medicine and food. In addition to protecting Doctor Zhang, you are also responsible for guarding this bag."

Along the way, they did not encounter any danger until they left the city gate of Nanping Prefecture. However, after leaving Nanping Prefecture, there were suddenly some strange figures on the road.

These people were either driving ox carts or walking in groups of three or five. Even an untrained person like Lin Wanwan could tell that they were not ordinary people at all.

"Ma'am, these people are weird, we have to be careful!"

Xiao Cui also felt a bad feeling in her heart. She stared out the window, not daring to be distracted for a moment.

"Madam, be careful. There is someone blocking the road ahead."

Without Xiao Cui's reminder, Lin Wanwan also saw the scene in front of her.

The two people who were walking in front suddenly fell in the middle of the road.

Although both of them pretended to be unintentional, Lin Wanwan saw murderous intent in their eyes when they looked up at her.

"court death!"

Just when Doctor Zhang's heart was in his throat and he thought this was going to be bad, Lin Wanwan accelerated and rushed over.

Just when her car was about to run over the people in front, the two people suddenly rolled to the side and safely avoided it.

"They really were pretending. Fortunately, Madam, you didn't fall for it."

Xiao Cui patted her chest with lingering fear. She was afraid that her wife would be too kind and she would definitely suffer.

"It's obvious that these people have ulterior motives. I won't gamble my life with them!"
