After being replaced, she changed from a miserable daughter-in-law to a lucky wife

Chapter 217 Porphyry

Xu Li looked at Porphyry: "Just what?"

Banyan told the truth: "It's just that the military strength in the city is limited. I'm afraid there are not many soldiers that can be deployed. I'm afraid that the military strength is insufficient and we can't completely take down the bandits."

Xu Li frowned. This was true. The military force in each city was limited and could not all be transferred out of the city.

"Sir, we are willing to follow Lord Madara to suppress the bandits." A voice came from a distance.

Xia Wanniang looked at the person who came with some surprise. It turned out to be Qiu He from West City and his men.

Xiao Chiye was a little slow to react when he saw this: "I didn't expect them to have such a passionate side."

Xia Wanniang curled her lips and smiled: "Now that I think it's worth it to sell the land to him at a discount."

Some of the uninjured yamen runners also stepped forward and said, "Sir, we are willing to follow you to suppress the bandits."

"We are willing to follow Master Ban to suppress the bandits." A group of people who had lost their loved ones also knelt on the ground.

Xu Li looked at them and said, "You will only die if you go. In the end, we will need Lord Ban to rescue us. Don't make trouble."

The people wiped their tears and were helped up by the people next to them.

Xu Li looked at Xiao Chiye and Xia Wanniang, without saying anything, but his eyes were already asking: Do you want to go?

He knew that if two people went, the danger would be reduced by half, and at least the safety of most people could be guaranteed.

Xia Wanniang was naturally willing. There was no telling how many good things were in this bandit's lair. If she didn't go there, how could she justify the family fortune she had emptied today?

When Xiao Chiye saw that she was eager to try, he understood and nodded towards Xu Li.

Xu Li finally agreed to let Qiu and the others join the bandit suppression, with Xiao Chiye and Xia Wanniang also joining.

No one had any objection to this. From last night to this morning, they had already seen the ability and skills of this young lady.

They have the martial arts skills and the medical skills if they want them, so they don't have to worry about them.

Although there were not many people, Yinyan was still confident.

Yin Yuanxun walked up to Xiao Chiye and said, "Young Master, let me go with you."

Xiao Chiye shook his head: "No, you still have to take care of the family. Besides, I'll have to trouble you to send my mother and the children back."

Yin Yuanxun finally nodded: "Be careful in everything."

Xia Wanniang walked over to Aunt Xiao and the children. They had been woken up when Pang Ming came just now.

When Xiao Zilin saw her coming, he rubbed his eyes, yawned loudly, and said in a soft and cute voice: "Mom."

Xia Wanniang wanted to hug them, but when she saw that her body was covered in blood and dirt, she had to give up the idea: "Uncle Yin will take you home in a while. Take a shower and have a good sleep when you get home."

Xiao Zimu looked up at her: "Mom, aren't you going back with us?"

Xia Wanniang smiled faintly: "Mom and your father are going to take care of some other things. We will go back after we finish."

Xiao Zisen pulled her sleeve and said, "Mom, are you here to avenge them?"

Xia Wanniang looked at him and said, "It's for everyone's safety in the future."

Xuan Qing and the others remained silent. They looked at their hands, the blood stains on which had already dried up. These were from the people who died last night.

Xia Wanniang actually didn't know if they would have nightmares after seeing the scene yesterday, but now she could only do more important things: "Mom."

Aunt Xiao knew what she wanted to say: "The children of the Xiao family have grown up in such an environment since childhood. They are not that fragile."

Xia Wanniang didn't say anything else, but looked at the children: "Would you like to give me a hug?"

Xiao Zimu, who was usually the most shy, actually threw himself into her arms the fastest this time and nestled in her neck: "Mom, don't get hurt."

Xia Wanniang said in a very gentle voice: "Okay! Don't be afraid, mother and father will protect you."

Xiao Zimu left her arms and stood beside Aunt Xiao.

The remaining children gave her a hug one by one, including Xuanqing and several other children.

They liked Xia Wanniang's embrace very much. It was warm and reassuring, and gave them a sense of security they had never felt before. They felt that as long as she was there, the sky would never fall.

Xia Wanniang smiled as she watched Yin Yuanxun take them and the Yin family away.

As she watched them disappear from her sight, the smile on her face disappeared and became solemn and serious. Even Banyan, who was standing next to her, noticed it and looked towards her.
