Chapter 200 The Sister Who Was Eaten Out of Her Family 9
Luo Chen already knew that Prince Lin had sent people to find Wu Yunxuan just to bring up Murong Qing's past events.
How could she let Prince Lin succeed? She didn't feel bored and wanted to cause trouble for herself.
Therefore, when Prince Lin was preparing to bring Wu Yunxuan's family to the capital, Luo Chen asked Luo An to go to Wu Yunxuan's house to handle these matters.
Wu Yunxuan was reminded of the scene that happened to him: a sword was placed against his neck, and he was threatened that if he dared to enter the capital, he would be killed on the streets.
Wu Yunxuan was so scared that he dared not go again. Lin Wang's men originally planned to kidnap him, but all the people they sent were dealt with by Luo An.
King Lin waited and waited but no one came, so he sent people out to investigate, but they found nothing.
Now Prince Lin didn’t dare to act rashly. Who dealt with his people? Was it Prince An?
Prince An was too powerful, so Prince Lin did not dare to confront him directly, so he pretended to be honest and did things in secret.
Now that someone had discovered his people, he naturally felt frightened. After waiting for a while and seeing that Prince An still didn't make any move, Prince Lin finally breathed a sigh of relief and quickly checked who had touched his people.
On the other side, although Wu Yunxuan was frightened, Wu Yinglian was not. She recognized that the person who came to the house was Prince Lin's man.
She was so happy to follow him to the capital to see Murong Xun, but for some reason that man hadn't come for several days, and her parents didn't say when they would leave.
Wu Yinglian was very anxious. She couldn't survive a day like this. She had never done so much work in her previous life.
Even when I was in the lowest position, I had people to serve me, and I had enough money and sleep. But now, I have to work day and night, serve the whole family, and still cannot get enough to eat.
After waiting for several days, Wu Yinglian went to ask Wu Yunxuan: "Dad, when are we going to look for my sister? Lian'er misses her so much."
When Wu Yunxuan heard this, he immediately scolded: "What nonsense are you talking about? When did I say I was going to look for her? Don't mention her in the future."
Wu Yinglian asked in disbelief: "Why? Didn't Dad happily go to find my sister before? Why did he change his mind?"
"I told you not to mention your sister. Just do your job." Wu Yunxuan scolded.
Wu Yinglian went out feeling aggrieved and looked at Old Mrs. Wu's room.
This old, pious woman who favored boys over girls had never liked her since her previous life, even though she had become a princess or even a queen.
This old hag only asked her for things for her grandson and never cared about whether she was living a good life.
But now I can only rely on her.
As she walked in, she smelled a foul odor. Old Mrs. Wu had lived in this room for more than two years and had long been accustomed to the smell.
But every time Wu Yinglian came in, she felt like vomiting. She really couldn't stand it, but for her own purpose, she could only force herself to smile and walk past.
"Grandma, how do you feel today?" Wu Yinglian went to the window and opened it, and then she felt better.
Old Lady Wu snorted, "You little bastard, you're just like your vixen mother. You're being so attentive to me for no reason. What are you trying to plot against me?"
Wu Yinglian secretly hated this damn old woman, but now she could only bear it.
"Grandma, what are you talking about? How can I, your granddaughter, come to see you to plot against you?"
Old Mrs. Wu didn't believe that Wu Yinglian could be so kind: "Are you going to tell me or not?"
Wu Yinglian sighed and said, "Ah, grandma, I really just want to come and talk to you."
"What do you have to say to me?"
"Grandma, have you ever been to the capital?"
Old Mrs. Wu was puzzled: "Of course I have been there. Your grandfather and I went there several times when we were young. Your father also went there several times when he was taking exams. Unfortunately..."
Wu Yinglian sat down, held her chin with both hands and asked, "Is the capital city fun? What is there?"
Old Mrs. Wu asked, "Why do you suddenly think of asking this?"
Wu Yinglian said innocently, "I heard from my parents that they would take our family to the capital to look for my sister, but now I don't know why they didn't go. I was happy for several days, thinking of going to the capital and letting my sister take me out to play and see her princess's mansion. Unfortunately, I can't go now and I can't see my sister."
Mrs. Wu immediately glared at Wu Yinglian and asked, "When did this happen? Why didn't anyone tell me?"
"It happened a few days ago. I saw someone come to our house and said that we were going to the capital, but there was no further news. I went to ask Dad, but Dad didn't let me mention my sister and said that we would never go to the capital."
Old Mrs. Wu was anxious and quickly asked Wu Yinglian to go and call Wu Yunxuan. How could she not go? This was the family's only chance to live their previous life again. Mrs. Deng was nine months pregnant with another son, and with this one, they had four sons in total.
If she couldn't go to Luo Chen, given the current situation at home, where they couldn't even get enough food to eat, how could her grandson study, pass the imperial examination, and change his family's status?
Her son was so talented that he passed the imperial examination at such a young age. If he had not married Murong Qing, he might have passed the imperial examination and become the top scorer long ago.
Then her grandson must have inherited her son's intelligence and cleverness. One of them will surely pass the imperial examination and become the top scorer. Then her family will be very successful.
So I must go to the capital to find that granddaughter and ask her to arrange for these younger brothers to go to school.
Wu Yinglian hurried out and called Wu Yunxuan in.
As soon as Wu Yunxuan entered the door, he frowned and covered his nose.
Wu Yinglian went out to wait and heard a quarrel inside. The noise attracted Mrs. Deng, who saw her daughter and asked, "Lian'er, what's going on in there?"
Wu Yinglian shook her head and said, "Grandma asked me to call Dad in, and then the two of them started arguing."
After a while, Wu Yunxuan came out. When he saw Wu Yinglian, he went up to her and grabbed her arm and started beating her: "You little bastard, you dare to complain. You are so capable now. You even dare to trick your father. I will beat you to death today."
Wu Yinglian didn't expect that her father would come out and beat her. She cried and asked Deng for help. Deng was also confused. What was going on? Why did he take out the anger he suffered from the old woman on his daughter?
He hurried over to stop him, but was pushed away by Wu Yunxuan and fell to the ground, bleeding on the spot. Wu Yingjie was so scared that he screamed, which made Wu Yunxuan look over.
He quickly carried Deng back to the bed and angrily scolded Wu Yinglian: "What are you standing there for? Go find a midwife! If anything happens to your mother and your brother, I will beat you to death."
Wu Yinglian walked out in a daze and ran to the midwife's house.
By the time my younger brother was born, two days had passed. Both the adults and the children had suffered a lot and needed medication, but the family had no money to buy medicine.
Wu Yunxuan had no choice but to let his wife and son carry the burden themselves.
From then on, Mrs. Deng had to lie in bed all year round, and all the housework fell on Wu Yinglian.
