uickly was certainly due to Qi's years of infiltration, the influence of their customs and culture, and the effectiveness of Yanping's policies as former prime minister.Let me know if you have other t...Two muscular, bare-chested men stood guard at the entrance of the city lord's mansion, their presence intimidating.

A group of people followed Li Jianqiu to the right.

Suddenly, a crisp voice rang out behind him: "Jiang Wang!"

Jiang Wang turned his head to the sound and saw that it was Sun Xiaoman, who looked petite and adorable. She was bouncing around in the crowd, waving at him excitedly.

Beside her walked a round, chubby man. If it wasn't Sun Xiaoyan, who else could it be

"Miss Sun!" Jiang Wang greeted with a smile.

"Why all the fancy words Just call me Xiao Man." Sun Xiaoman swaggered over and punched him in the stomach.

>

Jiang Wang gasped. To save face, she tried to maintain a bright smile: "Good, good, Xiao Man. You look great too!"

It seems that Sun Xiaoman and her group just returned from outside the city, with traces of battle still on them. Yang Xingyong and Zhao Tiehe didn't seem to follow, possibly because they don't usually go on missions together.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Sun Xiaoman waved her hand, letting the people behind her go first. She turned back and asked, "This time you came here to see us, or..."

Jiang Wang smiled and introduced Li Jianqiu, Zhao Rucheng and others: "We are here on a mission to exterminate the ferocious beasts."

“Great! That’s really generous!” Sun Xiaoman said with great enthusiasm, “Haven't you guys settled on a place to stay yet Come and live at my place!”

"Sister," Sun Xiaoyan whispered to her from behind, "You're a girl, it's not good to have someone live at your place..."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"What's the problem Our house is so big, you can just arrange it."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“My bed is so small, it’s not even big enough for me to sleep in by myself!”

"When did I ever say I wanted them to sleep in a bed with you"

“Then sleeping with you is even worse, right”

"What on earth is going through that thick skull of yours all day"

When the two siblings were about to start a full-blown brawl, Li Jianqiu spoke up in time: "Miss Sun, we already booked our rooms. Besides, we're about to set off to exterminate the ferocious beast. Staying at your mansion would be inconvenient."

Jiang Wang also said, "We are all following Senior Brother Li Jianqiu this time. He arranged everything. Xiao Man, Xiaoyan, you guys don't have to bother yourselves. Let's drink together after we finish the extermination mission!"

“Oh, alright, alright.” Sun Xiaoman instantly retracted her fierce look and turned back with a smile. “I’ll invite Tiehe and the others when we get back.”

The two groups said their goodbyes.

Here is the translation of your text:

As soon as Jiang Wang and the others walked away, Sun Xiaoman's face darkened: "That fat pig dared to sabotage me He's so stingy and cheap! How will our friends in Fenglin City think of us"

But Sun Xiaoyan knew her well and wouldn't stand for being beaten. She had already slipped into the City Lord's Mansion.

Sun Xiaoman chased wildly all the way, causing chaos everywhere. The guards in the mansion were already accustomed to it, each one looking straight ahead.

The siblings crashed into the study one after the other.

Behind the desk sat a middle-aged beautiful woman, who was engrossed in reading something.

This person is the current Lord of Sān Shān City, Dòu Yuèméi, and also the mother of Sun Xiǎomàn and her younger brother.

Sun Xiaoyan dove headfirst into her arms, a chubby finger pointing. "Look, sister!"

Dou Yuemei put down her brush and ink, holding her plump grandson, Xiao Yan, in her arms, ignoring how out of place the scene was. Her phoenix eyes shifted and landed on Sun Xiaoman who was approaching with gnashing teeth and claws.

"Sun Xiaoman! What are you doing again"

She has such a delicate name, yet her bearing is undeniably bold.

Sun Xiaoman stopped at the study door, quite displeased: "As elder sister, I am educating him, what's wrong with that"

He already has a mother, he doesn't need so many mothers!

Sun Xiaoman was speechless for a moment, so she could only stomp her foot fiercely, barefoot on the brick floor, making a loud bang. "Mother! You're too partial!"

"Of course not. A daughter who marries out is like water that has been spilled—gone forever!"

"I'm not married yet!"

"Isn't that just a matter of time"

Sun Xiaoyan hid in her mother's arms, feeling very safe. She chimed in: "That's right! Today she was flirting with a guy named Jiang!"

“You fat pig, you're itching for a beating!” Sun Xiaoman was furious, raising her fist and charging forward.

Dou Yuemei raised a hand, a gentle force stopping Sun Xiaoman from advancing any further.

"As a young lady, you shouldn't be so rough." She raised her delicate brows and asked curiously, "What's the matter with that Jiang"

"You're letting him get away with it!" Sun Xiaoman rushed over, her anger flaring: "Jiang Wang is the person who unconditionally transferred fifty points of Dao Xun to us last time, and he came again this time to help us clear out the ferocious beasts. Is there something wrong with me greeting him You're such a heartless son, always counting your pennies, afraid that others will crowd you!"

“Oh, he should be treated to a good time.” Dou Yue frowned and nodded, then asked, “Is he handsome”

Sun Xiaoman felt that they couldn't talk anymore, "Mother!"

Sun Xiaoyan stood out with her appearance. She said, "I look pretty good, but not as good-looking as that Zhao."

"You wouldn't understand this, my silly son. Men need to be a bit more robust, not too delicate." Dou Yuemei reached out and pinched Sun Xiaoyan's chubby face: "Look at you, so round and cute."

Sun Xiaoyan's expression twisted, and she suddenly became a little shy.

Sun Xiaoman took a deep breath, adjusted her emotions, suppressed her anger, and said calmly: "Mother, aren't you being a bit sexist"

Dòu Yuèméi nodded straightforwardly, "Yeah, what's wrong"

Sun Xiaoman roared, “You’re a woman too, Dou!”

“That's right! Don't I prove it I poured my heart out for your deadbeat father and never even thought of my own family. When my father died, he definitely regretted not loving his precious son more.”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

When your father was alive, I served him. After he died, I still had to support the old Sun family and raise both of you. From a delicate little girl, I've become this rough-around-the-edges mayor! What use is it having a loving parent"

Son Xiaoman: …

Speechless.

She kicked open the study door with a huff and stormed out.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

But then Jiang Wang and the others bade farewell to Sun Xiaoman. They went to look for their residence on their own.

Huang A-zhan laughed lecherously: "Jiang Wang is quite something, the daughter of the San Shan City lord, eh"

Jiang Wang sighed helplessly: "Just ordinary friends."

"Hehehe, I get it, I get it."

Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!

Zhao Rucheng whispered from the side, "Huang Azhan, if you're not afraid of being smashed into flesh by the Zhanshan Hammer, then continue with your disgusting laughter."

Huang Ah-zhan instantly recalled the earth-shattering Mountain Splitter Hammer that had wreaked havoc at the Sancheng Conference. He shuddered and shut his mouth.

Li Jianqiu seemed very familiar with this place, leading several people to an inn with ease.

The inn is small, but it's not run-down.

There were several sets of tables and chairs in the hall, all cleaned spotless.

The shopkeeper was an old man with eyesight that wasn't so good anymore. He squinted at Li Jianqiu for a long while before breaking into a grin and saying, "You're here, Little Li"

Li Jianqiu greeted him familiarly, "That's right, Zhang Grandpa. Please arrange four rooms."

"Two rooms will do, don't be so wasteful even with money. Four big men can't squeeze in a bit"

"Alright, as you wish."

"How are you doing lately"

"That's great. How about you, sir"

“All good.”

Jiang Wang silently watched this scene, feeling that Li Jianqiu and everything here were so harmonious, as if he had lived here for a long time.

“His son and daughter-in-law, on their way back to the city, were devoured by wild beasts on the official road.” As he went upstairs, Li Jianqiu said, “When the patrolling city guards arrived, they couldn't even find a single bone.”

>

Jiang Wang fell silent. Feilin City's territory had an average number of ferocious beasts, and incidents of ferocious beasts charging onto official roads were rare.

He found it hard to imagine the pressure ordinary people in Sanshan City would be under if even official roads were unsafe.

What, then, kept their hope so stubbornly alive

He always felt that his son was not dead and would come back one day. So he stayed at the inn's door every day.

Li Jianqiu sighed and said no more.
