Wanjin Lady

Wen Wan understood that the main reason was the injury on Old Man Wen's right leg from being beaten with a stick. In addition, her stepfather was old and the cell was dark, which caused the wound to take time to heal.

Seeing Wen Wan's worried face, the doctor said, "Miss Wen, don't be too nervous. The old man is in high spirits and feeling relaxed now because of the good news. With your careful care, I believe he will recover soon."

The cheap father held Hun Ge'er tightly, not taking the words seriously. "I'm not sick! As soon as I saw Zhao Zhao and Hun Ge'er, all my illnesses...were cured!"

After seeing the doctor off, Wen Weiming recalled the luggage scattered across the ground when he entered the courtyard. The yard was also in a mess, and he couldn't help but ask, "When are we leaving?"

According to him, we have to rest for at least two or three days before leaving.

But judging from the looks of it, Wen Wan had obviously already made arrangements.

"As soon as possible. I was planning to pick up my father and head back to Ping County. I still have some luggage that I haven't had time to pack."

Wen Weiming frowned when he heard this. Why is he so anxious...

"What happened?"

Wen Wan didn't answer but asked, "Dad, don't you want to leave this dangerous place as soon as possible?"

"You've made up your mind." Wen Weiming was very familiar with his family's coal business. He thought that Wen Wan was in such a hurry to leave, she must have gotten into trouble in Bozhou and needed to escape. "But my safe release this time was inseparable from the help of Mr. Yao, Master Cheng, and Lord Wei."

"Your father knows the whole story. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be having such an easy time in prison. I'll have to repay this favor in the future, but you can't just leave without saying goodbye before you go. At least treat them to a meal, right?"

Wenwan pursed her lips and frowned.

Father Wen had already made his decision. "It's settled. We'll leave early tomorrow morning and invite them to our house for a simple meal in the evening."

He glanced at Wen Wan and hesitated again: "Others are easy to deal with, but as for that Lord Wei... can we really invite this great Buddha?"

The people in the room had different expressions, and they all glanced at Wen Wan out of the corner of their eyes.

Wen Wan sighed, what was supposed to come... finally came.

"Dad, let me tell you something. You better be mentally prepared."

Wen Weiming laughed a little when he saw Wen Wan's serious expression, but when he saw that Liu Yiyi, Chen Ma and Hongmei all had gloomy faces, Wen Weiming could no longer laugh.

Then Mother Chen made an excuse to take Wen Jing to the yard to play.

Wen Weiming's throat rolled, and he felt inexplicably nervous. He hugged Hun Ge'er tightly and said, "Tell me, who died again?"

Wen Wan smiled bitterly, "No one died..." She added, "And those who died were not from our family."

Oh.

So there is still an unlucky person who died?
"I want to say... don't be too surprised when you see Lord Wei."

"Why?" Wen Weiming raised an eyebrow. "Could it be that your father has never seen the rich and powerful? Humph, not to mention Lord Wei, I've also seen the Empress in the palace!"

Wen Wan coughed softly, "Because Wei Zheng looks very similar to someone I know. I was afraid you would be surprised when you saw him."

For some reason, Wen Weiming suddenly felt a strong sense of unease. Before his mind could react, his mouth moved, "Zhao Heng?"

After saying this, Wen Weiming's lips trembled and his voice rose: "Zhao Heng?!"

The sound startled Hunge'er, who began to pout. Wen Weiming immediately lowered his voice, "Ah, it's alright, it's alright, pat pat, don't be scared... Grandfather isn't angry with you..." Wen Wan scratched her head and flattered him, "Father... you're so clever, you guessed it right away!"

Wen Weiming: …

"That's not right. If Zhao Heng is Wei Zheng, why hasn't he come to settle accounts with our family? Could this imprisonment be his revenge?"

Wen Wan shook her head, "No."

She carefully raised her eyes to look at Father Wen again, "He can't remember anything. He didn't recognize us. He only thinks of me as Mr. Yao's adopted daughter now."

Wen Weiming's eyelids twitched, and he seemed unable to digest all this information.

He felt uneasy, "No wonder you were clamoring to leave!"

I'm afraid he's feeling guilty!
Not to mention Wen Wan feeling guilty, Wen Weiming also feels guilty!
But thinking about leaving soon, Wen Weiming felt a little relieved. "Now that things have come to this, we should just avoid him. Whatever the doctor says, will he still remember it?"

Wen Wan shook her head. "I don't know. They say it's a case of migraine, and he occasionally gets headaches. As for whether he can remember it, no one can say for sure."

"Then let's go back as soon as possible." Wen Weiming held Huige'er in his arms, thinking more deeply. He couldn't pin his hopes on Zhao Heng not remembering. Once they got back, he would deal with the distillery, start over in a new place, and make sure Wei Zheng never found it again!
Wen Wan saw that Wen Weiming had no expression on his face and wondered if going to jail had made her lose all her means and strength?

Wen Weiming held the baby in his arms and kept poking Hun Ge'er's chubby face with his fingers.

Wen Wan stammered, "Dad, why aren't you angry?"

"Now that things have come to this, why should I be angry?" Wen Weiming sighed softly. "I've escaped death this time, and I've figured everything out. No matter what your arrangements are, I won't be responsible for family matters from now on. I'll just take care of my health and take care of my two grandchildren. That's more important than anything else."

"As for you, Zhao Heng, and Wei Zheng, that's your business. Go and deal with it yourselves."

Wen Wan was puzzled by Old Man Wen's nonchalant reaction.

Wouldn't her cheap dad be so angry that he would sneak into her bed and beat her at night?
Seeing Wen Wan's expressionless face, Wen Weiming smiled. "Don't worry, your father isn't one to climb high up the social ladder! What's the status of Lord Wei? What's the status of our family? If we try to get close to him, we might end up getting shattered to pieces."

"Dad doesn't expect you to achieve much. Our family is just like it is now. A peaceful and happy family is better than anything else."

Wen Wan looked dazed, "Dad, do you really think so?"

Wen Wei understood her at a glance, "What else? Lord Wei is the only one left in the Wei family. Are we going to wait for him to snatch Zhao Zhao and Hun'er away?"

Seeing that Old Man Wen was open-minded, Wen Wan agreed to let him go. "Then it's settled. I'll invite my adoptive parents over for dinner tonight, and we'll leave Bozhou and return to Ping County early tomorrow morning!"

Considering the mess in Cheng Yunzhang's family, Wen Wan only invited her adoptive father, mother and Wei Zheng.

Unfortunately, Wei Zheng couldn't come due to official business, so Wen Wan set up a table and chairs in the yard to barbecue, and at the same time talked to her adoptive father about her plan to return to Ping County the next day.

Yao Shizhen knew that there were still a lot of things waiting for Wen Wan to deal with in Ping County, so he did not try to persuade her to stay. "All good things must come to an end. Remember to write to me when you return to Ping County."

Old Madam Yao also said, "Ping County is neither too close nor too far from Bozhou. Remember to come visit me often in the future."

Wen Wan inquired about Cheng Yunzhang's news in a roundabout way, "Brother Xiuwen, such a big thing happened in his family. I'm afraid his studies will be delayed, right?"

Old Mr. Yao sighed, "He's been helping with the investigation these past two days, so his trip to Beijing might be delayed." (End of Chapter)
