Wanjin Lady

Chapter 121 Questioning
Wen Yue's face showed a hesitant expression. She always prided herself on being kind, so she didn't want to be too blunt. She only said vaguely, "If something like this happened in the countryside, the woman who lost her virginity would be drowned in a pond. But our Wen family can't do such an unethical thing. Why not just find a random person to send her off with, or send her to a nunnery in Yang County? We can't let her stay in the Wen family forever... It's not appropriate!"

The eldest uncle echoed Wen Yue, "Wen Yue is right. The Wen family can't keep raising this girl forever! There are rumors in the city, saying all kinds of things. You can keep it steady, but I can't afford to lose face! Send her away quickly!"

Wen Wan pursed her lips, breathed heavily, and her face turned ashen.

I just felt a sense of grief and indignation surging in my chest.

Third Uncle also said, "Second Brother Wen, this is what the elders want. Anyway, this girl is not clean, which decent man would dare to want her? Why not send her away and take her to the nunnery, so that everyone can have some peace and quiet!"

"Right, right, right—" Seeing someone agreeing, the uncle felt more confident. "In the end, it was this girl's own restlessness that brought this trouble upon herself. Since she was born a woman, she should have stayed at home peacefully! Look at that girl, she always puts on makeup and dresses up extravagantly, even more ostentatiously than Wen Yue's two wives! She deserves this!"

After saying this, the uncle deliberately glanced at Wen Wan again, "That's good now, the eldest girl should have learned her lesson. From now on, the servants in this house... must not be spoiled anymore!"

——Bang.

Before Wen Weiming could stop her, he saw Wen Wan grab the teacup on the table and smash it to the ground!
The broken porcelain pieces flew everywhere and almost cut Wen Yue's face.

The young lady had a fierce look on her face, like a wolf cub. Her red eyes darted around, staring at the three people present so hard that they were all silent.

Wen Yue asked with a pale face, "Sister, what do you mean... We are all doing this for your own good!"

Fuck you!
The young lady stood up slowly, like a devil crawling out of hell.

Despite having such a slender and weak figure, she gives people a feeling of oppression for no reason.

She spat out each word through gnashing teeth, "If you want to send Lu Ping away, I'll have to die!"

"Oh my... this is terrible... this is terrible..." The uncle covered his chest and looked at Wen Weiming in shock. "Second Wen... this girl is terrible... now she dares to be so arrogant to her elders. We came here with good intentions, but she... who is she trying to show off by throwing the cup..."

"Wen Wan!" Wen Yue also looked anxious, and tried to persuade her earnestly, "Aunt knows that you are now the head of your father's family, but you are the younger generation after all. How can you be so disrespectful to your elders? If this matter today gets out, will you still be able to live as a human being?"

Seeing Wen Wan's face turn pale, Wen Weiming knew that his daughter's temper had been raised these days. He also knew that she had been anxious and angry about Lu Ping's matter recently, so he hurried to act as a peacemaker, "This child... is young and inexperienced after all. I know you are anxious... but you can't yell at your elders. Sit down quickly..."

Old Man Wen quickly signaled Zhao Heng to hold Wen Wan down.

The crime of disobeying elders is a serious one. Wen Wan is young and impulsive and doesn't react well to provocation, but Wen Weiming cannot let his daughter be taken advantage of by the clansmen.

"Let's talk about Lu Ping..." Wen Weiming stammered, "That girl suffered a terrible ordeal. She's not fully recovered yet and can't even walk. It's not a good idea to kick her out now, is it? If so, won't the people of Ping County point their fingers at me, Wen Weiming, and call me a dishonest person?"

In one word, the tense atmosphere in the room was put to an end.

"Lu Ping's matter needs to be dealt with, but not now." Wen Weiming is indeed a businessman, and he managed to smooth things over perfectly. "It's not too late to discuss these matters when she's better and can walk around."

All three people in the room agreed with this statement.

The uncle refused to give up and continued to criticize Wen Weiming, "Don't think this is just your business! These rumors are about the entire Wen family in Ping County! You must know that a thousand-mile dam is destroyed by an ant hole. Your family is so big and powerful, you can't let a servant implicate you!"

Wen Weiming stood in front of Wen Wan, holding her hand all the time, fearing that his daughter would get excited and embarrass the elders.

He secretly held Wen Wan down, and said happily, "Yes, yes, what the uncle said is right."

You are absolutely right.

"Also, I heard that the Wenjiu Distillery nearly shut down a few days ago, and it's in debt to the Xinlong Bank. You, don't just focus on enjoying yourself. The eldest girl is young and a woman, so she's not good at business. You have to help her out. If any of your cousins ​​like any of them, feel free to hire them. Since this is a family business, you should have your family help run it so that you can feel at ease."

Wen Weiming's face showed slight anger, but he pretended not to understand and only nodded, "Uncle is right." He refused to say anything more.

The eldest uncle, however, could not hear Wen Weiming's perfunctory and impatience. Instead, he felt that Wen Weiming was obedient and could not help but smile with satisfaction, "See? I said that Second Wen was filial. It's a pity that my brother and sister-in-law are not blessed and cannot enjoy the blessings of children and grandchildren."

Wen Weiming said a few perfunctory words, hoping that these people would leave quickly. But suddenly, Aunt Chen came stumbling over. When she saw Wen Wan, she stopped in the corridor, pursed her lips, and tears streamed down her face. She sat down dejectedly on the stone steps.

"Big girl—"

A shrill cry.

Mother Chen suddenly pounded her chest and cried loudly.

"Lu Ping... is gone!"

"That girl... hanged herself..."

Wen Wan's head felt as if she had been hit hard by a punch, and her brain matter was shattered and scattered all over her body in a daze.

Chen Ma's voice seemed to come from far away outer space and didn't sound real at all.

She was in a trance for a moment, until Zhao Heng pinched her hand, "Wen Wan!"

When she came to her senses, she found a sweet and fishy taste between her teeth. It turned out that... she accidentally bit her lip.

The young lady's teeth were chattering, and she stumbled, almost tripping on the flat road. She walked towards the backyard like a puppet.

Wen Weiming gave a wink and Zhao Heng immediately followed. He went up and held Wen Wan's hand, but was pushed away by that person.

In the chaos, he only touched the cold corner of her clothes.

She walked forward unconsciously.

He was completely unaware of the darkening look in Zhao Heng's eyes behind him.

Wen Yue hurriedly followed, not without regret, "Oh, what's going on? Let's go and take a look."

But I felt relieved.

Isn't it the best of both worlds to solve a troublesome problem without them having to do anything?

When they arrived at the backyard, two or three servants had already heard the noise.

open the door--

The floor-length skirt on Lu Ping was half hanging in the air, and her feet were wearing snow-white silk stockings, swaying like a fluttering kite.

The servants shouted and rushed past her, taking the hanged Lu Ping down from the beam. The man looked at Wen Wan in horror, shaking his head with red eyes, "Miss, she's dead... her chest is cold..."

Wen Wan's body swayed, her face turned pale, as if she had fallen into an icy cave!
Zhao Heng quickly supported her.

The young lady's whole body was cold, and her once lively eyes were now filled with hidden and trembling tears.
