Wanjin Lady

Chapter 435 Full Set
Wen Wan smiled at her, "You're the one who loves to worry. Be careful not to become an old maid."

The master and servant walked side by side towards the clothing store.

The streets were deserted. Wen Wan saw Lei Zeguang at the door of a bookstore from a distance.

Lei Zeguang seemed to want to come over and talk, but finally hesitated and withdrew, just nodding at Wen Wan.

Wen Wan accidentally glanced at Hongmei's expression and laughed in her heart, thinking that these two people were quite patient.

God knows, right under her nose, these two people... Lei Zeguang, the domineering boss with a rustic look, and classmate Hongmei turned off her radar and was so scared that Wen Wan almost couldn't help but tear this layer of window paper several times.

But now, looking at Lei Zeguang's shy and twisting face, Wen Wan secretly thought that Hongmei's method of training people was very clever.

Look, our rustic second-generation rich boss has been turned into a little wife.

Hongmei kept looking at her, "What are you laughing at, girl?"

Wen Wan wrapped her cloak tightly around her body and said, "I ate too much."

"What do you mean by eating too much?"

"Dog food."

Hongmei frowned and thought to herself that the girl was starting to say those weird things again.

Arriving at the clothing store, Concubine Chun was nowhere to be seen, only her personal maid: "Shopkeeper Wen, it's unfortunate today that the eldest wife's people are also in the store. My concubine's carriage is in the alley ahead, turning right."

The maid pulled Hongmei back and said, "Miss Hongmei, while the masters are talking, we can just watch from a distance. How can we possibly get close enough to eavesdrop?"

Hongmei has been in charge of things on her own for a long time. Upon hearing this, she calmly withdrew her hand, not taking the girl seriously at all. "Wherever I am, it is my daughter who has to speak. It is not your turn to lecture me."

The maid was startled. Seeing Hongmei continue to follow Wenwan, she quickly stepped forward and acted affectionately. "Sister, I'm sorry. I'm young and my words are not profound. I didn't mean to upset you."

Hongmei looked at the girl and became alert. "Why haven't I seen you before?"

"I just came to Aunt Chun's side. My name is Magpie."

Hongmei became suspicious and thought to herself...how did this new maid become Concubine Chun's confidante so quickly?

Hongmei was just feeling doubtful when suddenly a sack fell from the sky and put her in it. Her vision went dark and she choked to the ground.

As the world spun, Hongmei vaguely saw Wen Wan getting on Aunt Chun's carriage through the gap in the sack.

The moment she closed her eyes, Hongmei had only one thought in her mind.

Save the girl!

We need to find a son-in-law to save the girl!
When Wen Wan opened her eyes again, her hands were tied behind her back and her whole body was stuffed into a large water tank with a cover on her head. She was curled up in it and couldn't stretch at all.

The carriage swayed and made a clatter on the bluestone slabs. Wen Wan couldn't see anything, but she realized that it was still daytime.

As soon as she got on the carriage, she was knocked unconscious and didn't even have time to see who did it.

In addition to Aunt Chun, there should be a strong man in the carriage.

"Click, click."

The wheels rolled over the floor, splashing water, and she heard a passerby on the side of the road curse.

This is the way out of town!

Towards South City!

The last time we saw off the tribute wine delegation, this section of road was damaged by accumulated water, and the carriage was extremely bumpy when passing by.

Wen Wan didn't have time to think about why Aunt Chun suddenly turned against her. Her eyelids felt heavy, her head was dizzy, and she woke up for a moment before falling asleep again.

When Wen Wan opened her eyes again, she saw Aunt Chun sitting opposite her.

His hands were still tied behind his back and he couldn't move.

Wenwan bit her tongue, a fishy and sweet taste came out, and her rationality returned.

They had already left the city. Aunt Chun was leaning against the wall of the carriage, resting with her eyes closed, clearly waiting for someone. The carriage was stopped on a main road, with two strong, fierce-looking men guarding it.

Wen Wan was convinced that Aunt Chun had turned against them.

As for why we oppose——

Aunt Chun slowly opened her eyes, her expression calm and expressionless, "Shopkeeper Wen, I'm sorry, but I have to be loyal to the person who entrusted me with this."

The sweet taste of blood between her teeth filled her mouth. Wen Wan was sure that the effect of the drug had worn off. She observed the environment while considering and delaying, "Where's my girl?"

"Alive."

Wen Wan felt a little relieved.

Hongmei's survival suggests two things: First, Chun Yi Niang hasn't discovered that she's the murderer of Liu Lang, otherwise her reaction wouldn't be so calm. Second, Hongmei will soon go for help, and she needs to conserve her energy to deal with Chun Yi Niang.

Her hands were tied behind her back, so she could only touch her sleeves.

Well, even the dagger was taken away by Aunt Chun.

This means that the person behind this incident is aware of her knife-wielding habits.

It's an acquaintance.

The pain on Wen Wan's face was just right. "I thought my aunt and I were teammates on the same front. We used to work together so smoothly, and there was no grudge between us. Why did my aunt suddenly tie me up? If my aunt encountered any difficulties, she could have told me. I would have been obliged to help."

She hesitantly advised, "Mrs. Chun, please don't do anything stupid! Now that the Wen and Yuan families have reached a truce, if you are being instigated to be the first to do so, you will surely be disliked by the Yuan family. The loss will outweigh the gain!"

Aunt Chun turned her head and looked at her.

It was early winter, and the cold outside was biting. Aunt Chun never left her hot water bottle, and her face was unusually gentle. "Madam Wen, there's no need to try to trick me. I can explain it to you clearly."

"Thank you for sending me the recipe. I've been pregnant for over a month."

Wen Wan's expression changed slightly.

"At my age, I'm still able to have this baby. It's a blessing from God. It's also a blessing for Shopkeeper Towin."

Wen Wan sneered, "Is this how Aunt Chun repays me? By giving me to Jia?"

Aunt Chun smiled faintly. True to her motherly nature, her skin looked smoother than ever, and her whole being exuded a gentleness and calmness. "Even though Jia committed such a grave offense, the Yuan family still refused to divorce her and merely locked her up. You said, Master and her... are already tired of each other. Why do they have to stay together?"

"After Jia Shi knew I was pregnant, she made a deal with me."

"As long as I hand you over to her, she will divorce the master and give me the position of the eldest lady."

Aunt Chun touched her belly, a kind and loving light shone on her face, "This way, my child is no longer a bastard."

Wen Wan turned her head away and leaned against the back wall of the car.

Aunt Chun tilted her head to look at her, "As I said, Miss Wen, I'm sorry."

"This is a grudge between me and Jia. Since you are pregnant, you should leave this battlefield. Don't feel sorry for me, just be true to yourself." Aunt Chun's expression froze, as if she was not sure whether Wen Wan was mocking her or something else, but none of that mattered anymore.

The important thing is that without Jia and Wen Wan, she and her children will live a very good life in the future.

But Wen Wan continued to attack her heart. The young lady had disheveled hair and stared at her with eyes fixed, like a female monster who had been practicing in the snow for thousands of years. She had a captivating sense of oppression.

"You promised Jia, I don't hate you. Someone in the city will definitely be looking for me, so please let me know. Let my family know where to collect my body."

The young lady looked haggard and pale, curled up in the corner. Aunt Chun thought of her two children, of Jia's relentless pursuit of Wen Wan, and that although Jia had signed the divorce agreement, there was no guarantee that something might have happened. If she could prove that Jia had hurt Wen Wan as soon as she returned to the city, then the position of the third lady would truly fall on her.

This time, Aunt Chun nodded heavily.

A weak and obedient smile appeared on the young lady's face. "Thank you very much."

Wen Wan was calculating the time in her mind. Hongmei would go to the Governor's Office to ask for help as soon as possible. Even if Wei Zheng was not there, she should have searched the entire city yesterday by organizing the manpower from Honglou and Lei's Winery.

Logically speaking, we should take people out of the city to look for him today.
