Chapter Fourteen: As He Said
Jingwu nodded: "It's true."
Hearing this, Xia Tang's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally died.
She had thought that even if this matter was exposed, she could still use her daughter to appeal to Wei Anchen's family ties and have him secretly protect her until the old man died, at which point he would bring her back. But who could have imagined that Chu'er was actually Wei Anhan's bloodline?
Old Master Wei finally felt a little better. His youngest son had left behind a bloodline, thankfully it was An Han's daughter, otherwise, he wouldn't know how to deal with this little granddaughter.
He weighed the pros and cons for a moment, then looked at Wei Anhan and said, "Anhan, I know you've been wronged, and I will deal with Xia Tang. But this matter shouldn't be aired in public. The Wei family can't be without a successor, you..."
Wei Anhan was still looking at her daughter when she heard these words and immediately understood what her father meant. He could punish Xia Tang, but he would not punish her elder brother.
His eyes revealed resentment, and hatred grew wildly in his heart. A murderous aura enveloped his entire body, and just as he was about to lose his mind, a golden light entered his body, bringing him back to his senses.
Wei Anhan looked in that direction and saw Jingwu lower his hand from the hand seal and look at him with a cold expression.
"Have you thought this through? If you force your older brother and Xia Tang to leave, you won't be able to be reborn into a good family in your next life."
Wei Anhan was considering backing down, but was still unwilling: "Are we just going to let them live happily ever after?"
Jingwu looked at the two men's faces, thought for a moment, and then said, "After they die, they will be punished in the eighteenth level of hell and pay their dues one by one."
Moreover, judging from their appearances, these two don't have long to live.
Wei Anhan looked at Xia Tang, who was slumped on the ground with a deathly pale face, and then at her older brother who didn't seem to care at all. Her clenched fist tightened and loosened repeatedly.
After a moment, he looked at Master Wei and said, "I want you to kick Wei Anchen out of the Wei family and forbid him from taking over the family business. Let him fend for himself. Divorce Xia Tang and send her back to her parents' home."
Upon hearing this, Master Wei did not immediately agree.
He had no objection to Xia Tang. Even if his youngest son didn't mention it, he would still divorce her, send her back home, and tell her family what he had done.
But An Chen was his own son. He loved him dearly, how could he bear to do that? Besides, what would happen to the family business if he really kicked him out?
Wei Anhan knew what her father was thinking, and continued, "Wei Anchen's eldest son is already eight years old, and his business talent is much higher than ours. Father, if you don't agree, I will not reincarnate, and I will stay in the mansion every day until our family is reunited in the underworld."
Upon hearing this, the Wei family members inside the house all shuddered.
Hearing this, Jingwu chuckled inwardly. This was a blatant threat. If he didn't go to the underworld to be reincarnated and stayed in the mortal realm every day, he would take action first and forcibly take him away. After all, there were still many innocent people in the Wei family.
But she didn't say these words aloud.
Master Wei made up his mind immediately and agreed the next second.
I can live for at least another twenty years, and I can raise my eldest grandson to adulthood so that he can take over the Wei family.
"Father promises you, everything will be as you say."
Upon hearing this, Wei Anchen looked at his father in surprise, his face draining of color, his previous composure vanishing.
"Father, you..."
Master Wei ignored him, closed his eyes, and looked at his youngest son: "Anhan, are you satisfied now?"
Wei Anhan twitched the corners of her mouth and nodded: "I will stay in the manor and watch you finish handling everything before I leave."
Master Wei was heartbroken. After all, this was the successor he had been grooming for over twenty years, but what could he do?
He summoned Butler Wei and said in a hoarse voice, "From today onwards, take back all the account books and shops in the hands of the eldest young master. He is forbidden from having any further contact with the Wei family's business, and is forbidden from... stepping into the Wei family's home again. From now on, he is no longer the eldest young master of the Wei family."
Butler Wei was quite surprised to hear this, but he still agreed.
“Xia Tang committed despicable acts and killed my son. We will send her back to her parents’ home and tell the Xia family everything she did.”
Upon hearing this, Xia Tang immediately tugged at his sleeve: "Father, I know I was wrong. Please don't send me back to my parents' home. I don't want to die. I don't want to die!"
If she really went back to her parents' home, her brother and sister-in-law would definitely force her to commit suicide in order to appease the Wei family's anger. She didn't want to die.
Master Wei pulled open his robe, his eyes cold: "An Han didn't want to die either, so why didn't you think of sparing his life back then?"
Seeing this, Xia Tang immediately looked at Wei Anchen, but he was also in a precarious situation and couldn't take care of her at all.
Her heart sank for a moment, her mind raced, and then she suddenly saw her daughter in the cradle and rushed over to her.
"Father, Chu'er is still young and can't be without her mother."
Upon seeing this, Wei Anhan was about to speak when she heard her father speak.
"Chu'er will be raised by Madam herself. She is An Han's only bloodline and will inherit An Han's share of the family business in the future."
Upon hearing this, Jingwu raised an eyebrow. Seeing that Wei Anhan's fierce aura was diminishing, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "No one knows a son better than his father."
She looked at the ghost and took out her storage bag: "Let's go."
Wei Anhan hesitated for a moment, then took one last look at the people inside the room and nodded.
Jingwu chanted a spell and put him into his Qiankun bag.
As Mr. Wei watched his son disappear into the house, a huge weight was lifted from his heart, and his mind began to wander.
Jingwu looked at him, as if guessing what he was thinking: "It will take some time for the ghost to be reincarnated. If you want the Wei family to have peace, then do as he says."
Upon hearing this, Master Wei immediately looked up and met those calm eyes. He was startled, as if she could see through everything about him. He immediately nodded and agreed, "Yes, I will definitely do as An Han says."
He watched as those eyes looked away before he finally breathed a sigh of relief. He beckoned the steward to come forward, took the hundred-tael silver note, and handed it to her: "Master, thank you for your hard work this time. I'll also trouble you to send my youngest son into reincarnation so that he can be reborn into a good family."
Jingwu took the silver note and nodded: "Alright, it's getting late, I should go."
Master Wei immediately nodded and personally saw her to the door, instructing Steward Wei to take her back to Green Bamboo Village.
After Jingwu got off the carriage, he saw that his uncle's family had just returned.
Shao Che was surprised for a moment when he saw the carriage and Steward Wei. He remembered that she had mentioned business coming to the door that morning, and it must be this person in front of him. So he smiled and stepped forward: "Awu, are you tired?"
Jingwu smiled and shook his head: "Not tired."
He then turned to Butler Wei and said, "Thank you, Butler Wei, for bringing me back."
"You're too kind, Master. It's nothing."
After saying that, Butler Wei left quickly.
Jingwu watched the carriage drive away before smiling at Shao Che: "Uncle, you're back so early?"
