Chapter 1794: Not Waiting Anymore Chapter 1794: Not Waiting Anymore Editor: Henyee Translations The child was still too young to need a name, but Qiao Xuan couldnât help but ask Shao Yunduan with a smile, âWhat shall we call our son?â Shao Yunduan had been pondering this all morning, so he replied with a smile, âI was just about to discuss this with you.
Our son was born in Anze Province, and our foremost wish is for his safety and well-being above all else.
Why donât we name him Anan?â In this place, safety truly outweighed all other considerations.
The mountain bandits still posed a significant threat, like a looming tumor ready to burst at any moment.
Despite their preparations, Shao Yunduan couldnât guarantee an easy victory over them.
The mountainous terrain was treacherous, and the bandits were cunning, entrenched, and numerous.
Eliminating them wouldnât be a simple task.
Previously, the injuries sustained by the Tiger Head Tribe were not solely due to being surrounded, but also due to their own errorsââŹâthey were outnumbered, underestimated the enemy, and were betrayed by their scouts who revealed their location.
Yet, launching a proactive assault on the bandit stronghold was no easy feat.
Otherwise, Anze Province wouldnât be in its current state, and the Imperial Court wouldnât have tolerated it for so long.
In their previous interactions, Shao Yunduan had only demonstrated his strength and reluctance to be trifled with, urging everyone to mind their own business.
But that wasnât enough for him.
He was determined to crack this tough nut.
Conquering the bandits would not only secure his promotion but also provide a fallback plan.
Even if he couldnât recover from his current predicament, no one would dare to cross him lightly.
At that moment, he had the freedom to choose his pathââŹâadvance or retreatââŹâensuring the safety of his family.
The entrenched bandits posed a significant threat to Anze Province, and as an ambitious young official, Shao Yunduan was eager to make a difference for the local people.
Peace.
It seemed like a simple concept, but achieving it here was anything but easy.
Yet, it was the most heartfelt wish and the ultimate aspiration.
Qiao Xuan grasped the depth of Shao Yunduanâs intentions, her heart softening as she nestled against his arms.
âAnan is a wonderful name, indeed.
Anan, stay safe, my love.
Weâll be alright.â âYes, we will,â he affirmed.
Their smiles met in silent agreement before they shared a tender kiss.
After their moment together, Shao Yunduan arranged for someone to take the child to rest.
He had one more matter to discuss with Qiao Xuan.
Qiao Xuan instructed the nanny, Aunt Zhu, to care for Anan, entrusting her to the capable hands of Caiming and Caiyun, who were responsible for her well-being.
Anan proved to be a finicky eater, only willing to nurse from Qiao Xuan herself.
Despite Aunt Zhuâs efforts, Anan adamantly refused to feed from her.
Tears welled in her eyes as she turned her head away, rejecting the offered breast.
With limited milk production, Qiao Xuan resorted to spoon-feeding Anan milk from a bowl, finally coaxing her to eat.
âWife, the autumn harvest is approaching, which means heavy taxes.
The Fan family, with their vast lands, will likely lead the resistance and cause trouble.
I see an opportunity to address this issue along with Deputy Prefect GuanââŹÂŚâ It was clear they couldnât allow vermin like Deputy Prefect Guan to persist into the new year.
