Wanjin Lady

Chapter 324 Unable to Leave the City

The next morning, just as the sky was getting light, everyone in the Wen family yard woke up.

Everyone quickly made up their beds, loaded their luggage into the carriage, and began to tidy up the yard.

Aunt Chen got up very early. She was responsible for the food and beverages for the large group of people returning to Ping County. It would take at least a month for this group of seven or eight people to travel this distance, so the kitchen had been burning firewood since yesterday. Aunt Chen waved the spatula, first making pancakes, then various sauces that had a long shelf life, and then pickled vegetables. The sound of "ping pong" from the pots and pans in the kitchen never stopped.

Liu Yiyi was responsible for packing the luggage of the whole family, Wen Jing volunteered to look after the two kids, and Hongmei was responsible for packing the two little ones' things. Hey, you know what, in the end it was discovered that the two little ones had the most things.

Various rocking cars, small clothes, and small toys occupied half of the carriage. Liu Yiyi was afraid of the bumpy road, so she hurried to cover the carriage inside and out with another layer of stuff.

They were old, weak and sick and had to be taken care of carefully along the way.

After all this busy work, it was already dawn.

Zhu Wang arrived at the courtyard gate early in his carriage. He considered himself half a member of the Wen family because he had signed a contract with Wen Wan. As soon as he entered the house, he helped with the arrangements and even made room for them to move their luggage.

Zhu Wang was reliable for once. Pulling Wen Wan over, he proudly patted his chest and said, "Niece! You set the departure time two days ago. Your uncle Zhu has been busy finding an escort agency these past two days and hiring ten agile escorts to escort you! We are all old, weak, and sick. It will take at least ten days or half a month to get back. We can't let bandits rob us like last time. We have to get back safely!"

Wen Wan gave him a thumbs up, "Manager Zhu does a good job!"

"Hey, niece, why call me Shopkeeper Zhu? Just because of my relationship with your father... you can call me Uncle Zhu!"

Wen Weiming could hear Zhu Wang's chattering from a distance. He walked out slowly with his cane, "Brother Zhu, thank you for your thoughtfulness. Why don't I take your carriage later? We two brothers haven't spoken for a long time."

Wen Wan frowned slightly.

Who was that guy who got so drunk in the yard last night that he almost lit incense to become sworn brothers?!

You two were separated for just one night, and you couldn't wait to be together again, right?
That's it.

Now Zhu Wang, the fence-sitter, doesn't seem to be as swaying as before. He just treats him as a cat or dog for his cheap father to play with.

The morning light was bright and the sun was rising high. The city of Bozhou was full of life. After the Wen family had packed up, they pulled three carriages out of the city in a mighty procession.

Wen Wan hadn't held her two children for a long time, and she wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to go home and spend some time with them, but her stepfather took the initiative and took Zhao Zhao to Zhu Wang's carriage.

He was also planning to let Zhu Wang take Hun'er away without leaving any one behind, but fortunately Liu Yiyi persuaded him in time.

Therefore, Wen Wan's carriage was only allocated to Hun Ge'er, a child.

Wen Wan hugged Hun Ge'er, kissing and biting him, making him giggle. She complained in a tone of voice, "Didn't you say you loved your eldest grandson the most? Why do you hold Zhao Zhao every day and won't let go?"

Chen Ma smiled and said, "I think Master is just saying one thing and thinking another! He loves Miss Zhao the most. She loves to cry, and whenever she cries, Master comes to hold her, and then starts yelling 'cat and dog.' Yesterday, Zhao Zhao kicked Master in the face, and Master praised Miss Zhao for her strength and said he would build a martial arts training ground for her in the backyard."

Hongmei also said: "Don't look at Zhao Jie'er, who is only a few months old, as if she is a little demon! She knows how to manipulate people. If she meets the gentle and easy-going people like the master, the mistress and Chen Ma, she will cry and make a fuss until she gets what she wants. But if she meets the young lady, the wet nurse and me, Zhao Jie'er will just grumble and let it go. Girl, it's amazing, this little person knows how to read people's expressions and manipulate adults. Zhao Jie'er will be amazing in the future! Just like Gu-"

Hongmei's words lingered in her mouth, and she quickly took back the word "son-in-law". "Just as smart as the girl!"

Well done, Hongmei! The touch-up was done subtly and cleverly.

Just two drops of sweat on the forehead.

Hun Ge'er seemed to understand, and responded with "Ah...Oh...", kicking his legs restlessly, looking very curious about the scenery outside the window.

Wenwan smiled and patted his little butt. Hongmei lifted the carriage curtain and said, "Girl, show Hun'er the outside. After all, we've been to Bozhou City and seen the world!"

Wen Wan held Hun'er's buttocks. Hun'er's little hands danced happily, and he stepped on his mother's thighs, causing Wen Wan's inner thighs to hurt. "How can this child be so strong?"

Hongmei smiled and said, "Although Zhao Jie'er and Hun Ge'er were premature babies, they are healthy and strong."

Wen Jing sniffed and complained aggrievedly, "They both kicked me! It hurt! Especially Zhao Zhao, she doesn't act like a girl at all! These two kids are just like my brother-in-law, they hurt when they hit me!"

As the taboo code of the Wen family, "Zhao Heng", several parties involved were very cautious and avoided talking about it.

But Wen Jing was unaware of this and often referred to Zhao Heng as "brother-in-law." Fortunately, Wen Wan's face showed no emotion and she simply smiled and said, "That's good. Only when you're as fierce as Zhao Heng can you avoid being bullied."

The sky was clear and cloudless. Everyone in the Wen family was overjoyed with their safe return home. That was until the carriage suddenly stopped. Master Tu, who was sitting at the front of the carriage, lifted the curtain slightly and said in a low voice, "Miss, there are soldiers ahead."

The expressions of everyone in the car changed slightly.

Hongmei's hands were shaking. "Girl, it seems to be...Mr. Xiong..."

Wen Wan threw Hun'er to Hongmei, and then comforted everyone: "Second Master Tu, stop the car. I'm going to ask what's going on first. No one is allowed to act rashly without my order."

Wen Wan jumped off the carriage and saw that there was a roadblock ahead. A dozen officers and soldiers were following behind Lord Xiong, and their eyes were obviously fixed on their carriage.

Wen Wan's heart sank, but she didn't show it on her face. She just walked over and smiled at Lord Xiong, "Lord Xiong, why are you here?"

Lord Xiong sighed, "Miss Wen can't leave today!"

He shook out a document and spread it in front of Wen Wan. Wen Wan only saw keywords such as Ruiguojuice, suspect, and poisoning. Lord Xiong called out to the soldiers behind him, and the soldiers surrounded their carriage.

"Miss Wen, your Ruiguo Juice is suspected of being involved in a poisoning incident. Shopkeeper Lei has revealed that you provided the recipe for the Ruiguo Juice. Now, Zhang Laixi, a clerk at the Lei Family Winery, is accusing his mother of vomiting and diarrhea after drinking your Ruiguo Juice, causing her to fall into a coma and is in critical condition. Please come with us to the yamen."

really.

It's time to come.

Since Yuan Qi's death, the third house's reaction was too calm. She had always vaguely known in her heart that there was no wall that was completely airtight in this world. No matter how secretly she did this matter, there would be flaws that would be exposed.

What we're about to witness is perhaps the Yuan family's counterattack. (End of Chapter)
