Chapter 1027 Enduring Humiliation and Bearing Heavy Burdens: Dancer of the Republic of China (2)

When a dying person sheds tears and wants to ask you for something in the most humble manner, even a heart of stone will be softened, not to mention that this person is your own father.

Unfortunately, Wan Xuer is now colder and more ruthless than a heart of stone, because she has no heart at all and naturally will not be soft-hearted, let alone towards a scumbag father like Wan's father who had abused the original owner.

Therefore, Wan Xuer just watched indifferently as Wan's father performed his self-torture trick.

Seeing that Wan Xuer remained indifferent despite his pleading, Father Wan suddenly couldn't go on. He covered his chest and shouted angrily: "Are you really so cruel and heartless? You won't take care of your brother?"

"Really." Wan Xuer answered without hesitation, and gave him a vicious smile that was so infuriating that it made him want to die.

"You, you..." Perhaps because he was too angry, and he was already in a terminal state, Father Wan glared at Wan Xu'er, and before he could finish his words, he fell down, holding his chest, and died.

When Wan Xuer saw that he was dead, she just raised her eyebrows, then began to search his room, put his few remaining silver coins, jewelry and antiques into her own space, and then searched other places in the Wan family.

At this time, the only ones left in the Wan family were the deceased Wan father, Wan Xuer, Wan Dingjun and two old servants who were loyal to the Wan family, so Wan Xuer's looting process went very smoothly.

After packing all the things, Wan Xuer did not stay any longer. She disguised herself as a little beggar, left the Wan family overnight, and found a dilapidated and uninhabited house nearby to stay in, thinking of making plans after daybreak.

The original owner, Wan Xuer, was a tragic character through and through. She was a concubine's daughter. Because her father had been married to his legitimate wife for seven or eight years without having a child, he took a female lead from an opera troupe as a concubine, who gave birth to the original owner.

However, Wan's father took a concubine in order to have a son, but the concubine gave birth to a daughter, which disappointed him greatly. So he immediately put this unexpected daughter behind him and took in several more concubines.

The original owner's biological mother fell out of favor, but at least she was alive and could take care of the original owner. However, when the original owner was four or five years old, her biological mother died of a serious illness. The original owner immediately became a motherless child. He was ignored by his biological father and disliked by his stepmother. Gradually, he became a invisible person, and his status was even lower than that of the Wan family's servants.

Wan's father took several concubines, but for some reason, none of them gave birth to children. In the end, it was his original wife who gave birth to his only son, Wan Dingjun.

After Wan Dingjun was born, his father was overjoyed. He doted on him, treated him as his only heir, and cultivated him carefully.

However, before Wan Dingjun grew up, the Wan family was targeted because of their coveted wealth. The people behind the scenes designed a series of conspiracies to obtain the Wan family's wealth. The final result was that the Wan family was not as good as others and lost all their property. Wan's mother died because she could not accept the fact, and Wan's father fell ill due to the great blow. His illness became more and more serious and he soon became terminally ill.

After realizing that he was going to die, Father Wan began to look for a way out for his only son. He remembered the original owner who was several years older than his son, so before he died, he asked the original owner to take good care of his younger brother, raise him up, and not let the only bloodline of the Wan family be cut off. In the end, he also had to help him get revenge...

The original owner was a silly girl, who had lacked fatherly love since childhood and longed for family affection, so she desperately hoped to get recognition from her father. So when she was suddenly called by Wan's father and solemnly "entrusted with an important task", she was immediately moved. She felt that her father valued her and believed that she could shoulder the responsibility of the Wan family. Therefore, she agreed to Wan's father's request without hesitation, and was determined to take good care of her younger brother and avenge the Wan family.

After Wan's father entrusted the original owner with this matter, he died soon after. With the help of two old servants, the original owner buried Wan's father, sold the Wan house, and then found a secret and secluded place to hide in obscurity, looking forward to the future.

Although she had some money from selling the house, it was not enough to support four people and to support Wan Dingjun's studies. Therefore, after the money was used up, the original owner had to start looking for ways to make money. However, in this war-torn era with frequent warlords and the country on the verge of extinction, it was very difficult for a young girl to find a job and earn money, let alone a timid and untalented girl like the original owner of twelve or thirteen years old? Therefore, she could not find a way to borrow money.

Seeing that the family was getting poorer and poorer and there was almost no rice left, Wan Dingjun began to ask the original owner with tears in his eyes whether they were going to starve to death and if they starved to death, would they be unable to avenge their parents?

The two loyal servants also hugged Wan Dingjun and cried worriedly, looking at the original owner with something to say but hesitant. The original owner was simple-minded and saw their hesitation, so he asked them what solution they had.

The two loyal servants then suggested that young girls have a job that can earn a lot of money without being too hard, and that is to work as a singer or dancer in a dance hall.

Although the original owner was cowardly, she also knew that being a singer or dancer was not a good job. Once she entered this industry, her future life would be ruined.

However, her younger brother was crying from hunger, and the loyal servant tried to persuade her earnestly, saying that this was a last resort for the only male in the Wan family to survive, and that he believed the ancestors of the Wan family would understand that she had no choice but to take this path...

The loyal servant appealed to her with both emotion and reason, and tried his best to persuade her to endure humiliation and sacrifice for her brother and the Wan family. Wan Dingjun also vowed that when he grew up and had his revenge, he would definitely treat the original owner, a meritorious minister, well.

So the original owner, who was deceived and soft-hearted, really went to the dance hall to find a job. Her voice was not good, but her figure was beautiful and flexible, so she could not be a singer, but only a dancer.

However, she didn't know that her family was not really so poor that she couldn't survive without working as a dancer. Before his father died, he secretly gave the remaining property to Wan Dingjun and two loyal servants to hide, and told them not to use it unless it was absolutely necessary.

Wan Dingjun was already seven or eight years old, old enough to be sensible. He also had no feelings for the original owner, so he naturally listened to his father. He would not take out the money unless it was absolutely necessary - the family had no money, so it was not a last resort. Anyway, as long as they forced the silly original owner, there would naturally be a steady flow of money, so they naturally would not take out the money.

The original owner supported her family of four by working as a dancer, and paid for Wan Dingjun's studies. She did not delay his education at all, and even allowed him to live a good life.
