Wanjin Lady

Chapter 396 Hello, Uncle
A carriage took away all the women who had committed crimes in Bozhou City. The gentle carriage followed them all the way to the outskirts of the city until it became a black dot among the dark green mountains.

Wen Wan felt heavy in the heart and powerless in her chest, and she also felt that her future was bleak.

When he turned around, he saw Cheng Yunzhang riding a horse to see him off at the city wall.

Two people met in the crowd, looked into each other's eyes, and then walked away silently.

It's as if we have never known each other.

When the wind rises, the fate ends.

As soon as I got home, I saw Wei Zheng holding Zhao Zhao and teasing her.

Zhao Zhao has a cheerful personality, likes to laugh and move, and has never been content. Now she is lying on Wei Zheng's shoulder, waving her chubby little hands to reach the leaves above her head.

Hun Ge'er sat in a walker at his feet, holding Wei Zheng's longsword in his arms. Unable to hold it, he could only hug the hilt, chewing on the scarlet tassel, his expression as satisfied as if he had drunk a bottle of Guojiao.

This scene made Wen Wan's broken heart...seemingly mended for a short time.

She walked in with a smile, first picked up Hun Ge'er from the ground, wiped the crystal drool from his mouth, and then tore off the leaf and handed it to Zhao Zhao. When the two children saw their mother, their fat and short bodies twisted excitedly, and they said a lot of baby talk, "Ala Wu Oh".

Wei Zheng knew that she had just come back from seeing Sun Lanzhi off. The young lady's eyes were red and swollen, but there was no sign of pain on her face. She just rubbed Hun'er's forehead, as if she wanted to draw nourishment to continue living from the child.

Wei Zheng sat down holding Zhao Zhao and skillfully picked out the green leaf from Zhao Zhao's mouth. Although these two little ones were well-behaved and cute, they just put everything in their mouths.

The two little kids had already bitten his two fingers on the left and right, and Zhao Zhao even tried to bite the big ring on his hand!

For the first time, Wei Zheng felt that the two children born to Wen Wan looked like dogs.

Recognize smells, read expressions, listen to tone of voice, and explore the world purely with your five senses.

"I checked the restaurant across from you. The name on the deed is a young lady named Wang. But...this young lady Wang has a close connection with the Yuan family."

When talking about business matters, Wen Wan's expression improved, "So...it's still Jia's this time?"

"You could say that. The location of the restaurant she chose is so obvious, it's clearly targeting you. Junior Sister, do you have any good strategies to deal with it?"

Wen Wan shook her head. Hun Ge'er kept twisting in her arms, trying to grab the sword on the ground. Wen Wan had no choice but to put Hun Ge'er down and let him crawl on the ground by himself.

Brat! Not cute at all!
An old mother is no match for a sword, right?!
"We don't know what business they are in yet, so we shouldn't act rashly."

"We can't just sit there and wait for death." The figure's tone was unquestionable. "I'll arrest a few people and ask them what the Jia family is up to."

When Wen Wan heard that the big brother wanted to arrest someone again, she immediately declined, "No need, I can still handle business matters."

Wei Zheng has been arresting people everywhere these days, shaking the officialdom in Bozhou, and causing the business of the Red House to plummet. Some young ladies even became enemies with Wei Zheng because of their close relationship.

Wen Wan thought about it and felt that Wei Zheng's tiger skin was useful, but it also meant honor and disgrace. The fight between the bigwigs in Bozhou City was very likely to implicate an innocent person like her.

She reached out to hug Zhao Zhao again and calmly ordered them to leave, "My Lord, it's time for lunch. Zhao Zhao and Hun'er also need to take a nap. You..."

Wei Zheng actually lifted his skirt and sat down on the stone chair. "Alright, since you asked, I'll eat here. Tell Aunt Chen to keep it simple. No need to make a big fuss."

Wen Wan: ...

So angry.

Wen Wan gritted her teeth as she walked to the kitchen and told Chen Ma to add two side dishes, "Make them lighter and not too meaty."

Chen Ma gestured with her lips, indicating to Wei Zheng in the courtyard outside the window, "The Marquis's meal has been prepared for a while now." Wen Wan recalled her adoptive mother's words, and a pang of heartache rose in her heart again. She repeated, "Make it vegetarian! He doesn't like meat!"

Mother Chen was impatient, thinking that after raising her son-in-law for so long, how could she not know what his taste was?
But he still agreed, "I know, I know. I will remove all the chicken from the chicken and mushroom stew for you."

After saying that, he covered his mouth again and looked at Wen Wan cautiously.

Wen Wan made a stern face and gestured for silence. The two of them leaned against the windowsill, half of their heads sticking out, looking outside furtively.

Fortunately, Wei Zheng was having a lot of fun playing with the two kids and was not aware of the conversation here at all.

Wen Wan scolded Chen Ma, "If you let it slip again, I'll deduct your wages!"

Chen Ma agreed repeatedly, almost patting her chest to assure him, "Don't worry, I'm not senile yet! If I call you wrong again, I'll be treated like a pig or a dog!"

The old man tried very hard to brainwash himself. While dancing with the shovel and the pot to create sparks, he hypnotized himself by saying "My Lord, My Lord, My Lord, My Lord."

God bless you, don’t make the wrong call again!
If the truth cannot be hidden, the young lady will have to become Wei Zheng's concubine, and the two children will become illegitimate children. This will all be her fault!
When the food was served, Aunt Chen invited everyone to eat, and then she called out to Wei Zheng in a very smooth manner: "Son-in-law, these are all home-cooked meals, please don't be disgusted."

……

……

……

For a moment, the entire Wen residence was filled with peace and quiet, as if one could hear the sound of a pin drop.

Wen Weiming was the first to attack, slamming his chopsticks down and pretending to scold Chen Ma: "You are really old and confused! What son-in-law! Open your eyes and see clearly, this is Lord Wei!"

"Ouch!" Aunt Chen slapped herself twice in a very cooperative manner. "I was busy with my brother-in-law's death anniversary the past few days, and my mind was confused for a while. Please don't blame me, my Lord!"

Liu Yiyi also hurried to smooth things over, "You old thing, I just mentioned finding a new son-in-law, and you remembered it! Go down quickly, don't let the Marquis laugh at you!"

Wei Zheng adjusted his facial muscles and tried his best to look amiable, but before he could even utter the word "no problem", Mother Chen left the crime scene in a seductive manner.

The Wen family members at the table all showed a look of relief on their faces.

Everyone at the table looked at each other, letting the food smell delicious, but no one picked up their chopsticks. They all stared at Wei Zheng's face.

Wei Zheng smiled, his eyes cast towards the shivering Liu Yiyi, and said nonchalantly, "Looking for a new son-in-law?"

He glanced at Wen Wan who was silent at the side, and his tone became more and more strangely gentle, "Why, Junior Sister, is good things coming soon?"

Liu Yiyi's throat rolled over and she wished she could slap herself a few times.

This dead mouth!
What nonsense!
It was all Wen Weiming's fault for talking about Chen Xiaochun's loyalty and reliability last night. If Wei Zheng hadn't appeared in the middle, Wen Wan and Chen Xiaochun might have gotten along! Liu Yiyi then casually mentioned that since the Wen family's son-in-law had been dead for a year, they might as well recruit another one to marry into the family.

But the two of them did not dare to talk about Wen Wan's marriage under Wei Zheng's nose. On the one hand, they felt guilty towards Wei Zheng, and on the other hand, they were afraid of Wei Zheng.

In the past few days, Wei Zheng has been leading people to arrest people everywhere, killing people as easily as slaughtering pigs and sheep. Dozens of heads have fallen to the ground in one round.

An old friend who had been drinking with Wen Weiming a few days ago was implicated and imprisoned today, which made the two of them dare only think about Wen Wan renewing her marriage but not take any action.

Wei Zheng had a smile on his face, and his tone seemed as if he was talking about today's weather, but somehow, the hairs on Liu Yiyi's back danced on her skin. She shrank her head like a quail and could hardly hold the bamboo chopsticks.

Wen Wan calmly took over the conversation, "It was just a joke."
