Chapter 626: Ma Ping An Asking His Wife
Translator: 549690339
He moved the small stool into the carriage.
Uncle Shi’s brows relaxed, and his aged face became gentle with a smile. He seemed to have thought of something, and he drove the carriage towards the Ma Manor.
As they sped along, the top-tier cars in the country displayed their full potential. No matter how fast they ran, they would not feel any bumps in the car.
Inside the car.
Ning Niang stood in the corner, feeling uneasy and uncomfortable. The interior of the carriage was too luxurious. The carpet was woven from phoenix wings, and the low table was made of thousand-year-old purple wood. There were six fruit platters on the table, all of which were spiritual fruits. Any one of them was worth a fortune. Not to mention that Ma Ping ‘an was already in dire straits, even when he was in the limelight, he couldn’t enjoy such a life.
Zhang Ronghua sat on the soft couch in the north, which was the right seat. He pointed to the left and said,”Sit!”
“I, I’m still standing.”
Zhang Ronghua didn’t insist. He asked politely, “‘What’s the situation now?”
Ning Niang explained Ma Ping ‘an’s recent situation like a bucket of beans being poured out.
She learned from her that after he left last time, his health had deteriorated day by day, and his energy had become worse and worse. Recently, his injuries had worsened and he had vomited blood in the morning. He took the only money in the family to hire a doctor. After seeing him, the doctor told her to prepare for his funeral!
Ma Ping ‘an also knew that she was about to die. She asked her to invite Zhang
Ronghua over, and this scene happened.
“Sigh!” Zhang Ronghua sighed.
He closed his eyes and pondered.
Soon, the carriage stopped outside the Ma Manor.
Around the corner sat a group of hoodlums, a total of five people. The leader was sloppy, with a piece of foxtail grass in his mouth. His eyes were slanted, and his expression was arrogant, as if he was very arrogant.
Seeing the carriage stop, the few of them were stunned. The lackey asked, “Brother Yu, is there a big shot? Should we leave?”
Brother Yu was panicking. How could a native of Beijing not recognize it? Those who could sit in a carriage were all high and mighty figures. Not to mention him, even the old master of the county government couldn’t afford to offend such a person. But now, they stopped at the entrance of the Ma Manor.
Wasn’t Ma Ping ‘an down and out? His good friend had cut ties with him and had no contact with him. His observations over the past few days had also proved this point. That was why he dared to bring his men to guard this place. Otherwise, he would not have dared to have any designs on the mother and daughter even if he had the guts.
Just as he was about to leave, he thought of something. He hadn’t done anything, so why should he be afraid? They were just waiting here. After Ma Ping ‘an died and the relationship with his good friends was gone, they would attack them. However, these days, they had been well-behaved. They did not even knock on the door, let alone harass them. The road was so big. Could it be that they could not sit here?
Feeling at ease, he pretended to be calm and said,”Look at you! What was there to be afraid of? We didn’t do anything bad. We’re just enjoying the shade here. It’s to enjoy the shade.”
Zhang Ronghua got out of the car and glanced at Brother Yu. He guessed what they wanted to do. With his hands behind his back, he said in a deep voice, “Come here!”
Brother Yu and the others looked at each other and hesitated for a moment. They braced themselves and walked over. They stopped nervously and stuttered,””G-Young Master, do you have any orders?”
“Have you targeted them?”
‘ No, no, no!”
At this moment, a group of patrolling soldiers from the Fifth Division of City Defense walked over. Zhang Ronghua waved his hand, and the soldiers immediately rushed over. They took out their waist tags and showed them to him. With a respectful expression, they cupped their fists and bowed. “Greetings, Milord! ”
“These people want to kidnap people. Bring them to Shangjing Prefecture and hand them over to Magistrate Chen!”
“Yes!”
With a wave of his hand, the soldiers rushed forward and took them down. Brother Yu begged for mercy,””We didn’t do anything. We just stayed here to enjoy the shade. Is it wrong?”
Zhang Ronghua didn’t even turn his head. He used his actions to tell him if he was wrong!
They entered the mansion.
Outside the bedroom, two young cries could be heard from inside. Ma Ning and Ma Jing stood by the bed, sobbing softly. They looked at Ma Ping ‘an again. There was no blood between his brows, surrounded by a sense of death. He was like a lamp that had run out of oil.
He walked closer.
Zhang Ronghua calmly looked at him and didn’t say anything.
Ma Ping ‘an raised his hand and gestured for Ning Niang to help him up. With a pillow behind him, he said with difficulty,”Did you see those ruffians outside?”
“Yes.”
“Thank you!”
Cough! Cough!
She coughed violently, and blood flowed out of the corner of her mouth. It was almost dyed black. Ning Niang hurriedly wiped it off with a handkerchief. Ma Ping ‘an said again,”l beg you for one thing!’”‘
Zhang Ronghua didn’t reply. With his intelligence, he had guessed it when he saw Brother Yu and the others.
Ma Ping ‘an waved his hand and chased his two daughters over. He asked Ning Niang to stay behind and closed the door. Then, he said, “This is only the beginning. After I die, there will be others who will attack. Without anyone to protect them, there will only be two outcomes for them. One is to be sold to a brothel, and the other is to become someone else’s plaything.”
He pleaded.
“Please protect them for the sake of the past!”
Ning Niang lowered her head and did not dare to look up. It seemed that Ma Ping ‘an had already told her about this.

“You’re giving me a hard time.’”‘
Ma Ping ‘an knew that Zhang Ronghua was still unmarried. The sudden addition of a mother and daughter, and three of them at that, would affect his reputation, but he really had no other choice.
His old friends had already lost contact with him due to his downfall. It would be good if he didn’t hit them when they were down. If he expected them to take care of his wife and daughter, wouldn’t he be throwing himself into a tiger’s den?
The atmosphere was stiff!
Ma Ping ‘an’s aura weakened, and his life force was rapidly draining away. His lips were getting paler and paler, and his eyes were still pleading..
