Yang Lianghui wanted to scold Wenrou for being so stupid, losing so much money, why didn't she lose herself instead?
If he were to lose her, he would have to thank the thief properly!
Glancing at Pei Jingzhou, Yang Lianghui reluctantly got up, went back to his room, took out twenty yuan, and handed it to Wenrou. He had spent all of his salary for the month.
Supporting two women is really too much for my wallet!
He had promised Lin Xiaorou that he would give her a good life, but he never expected his wallet to be empty so quickly. He wondered which thief had stolen his secret stash of money; otherwise, with so much money, he could definitely have given Lin Xiaorou a good life.
Pei Jingzhou ate at Wenrou's house and then left. He didn't really want to get involved in the marital spat between the couple, but now that he was back, Yang Lianghui didn't dare to go too far with Wenrou.
Because Wen Xi often brought things over, the Pei family didn't go out to buy New Year's goods like in previous years. Even when acquaintances came to invite Wen Xinchun to buy New Year's goods together, Wen Xinchun refused.
That day, Wenxi and her two companions, all bundled up tightly, left the Pei family home. After walking for a while, they stopped outside a courtyard gate. Wenxi said, "If I remember correctly, this should be Brother Qin's original home."
Shen Jiaojiao nodded, "I wonder who lives inside now."
"Is it possible for Brother Qin to get this house back?" Jiang Yue asked worriedly.
“It’s unlikely,” Wen Xi said. “After Brother Qin’s parents passed away, his relatives sold the house and divided the money among themselves. Others who bought the house also paid for it, so how could they possibly get it back? Of course, they could negotiate with them to buy it back, but it would definitely have to be at the current price, since more than 20 years have passed.”
"I never imagined Brother Qin would be in such a terrible situation. He just lost his parents and then his house. I bet his relatives swindled him out of all his money too!" Jiang Yue said with heartache.
She used to want to be with Qin Mi, but Qin Mi didn't give her a chance. So she hopes that the women who end up with Qin Mi in the future will treat him well, because Qin Mi is really too pitiful.
As soon as Wenxi and her two companions left, Wenrou took Yang Guangzong and Yang Yaozu back to the Pei family. Fortunately, Wenxi and her companions always brought things for the Pei family instead of luggage, otherwise Wenrou would definitely have discovered some clues.
"Xiaorou, why did you bring Guangzong and Yaozu with you?" Wen Xinchun was just about to leave for work when Wenrou returned with the two children.
She smiled gently and awkwardly, "Mom, I'm too busy at the end of the year and don't have time to take care of them, so I'm letting them come back to stay for a while. My fourth and fifth brothers can keep an eye on them for me, and I'll come back to pick them up when I'm done with my work."
Wen Xinchun understands that everyone is busy at the end of the year, but she did not assign Xiao Si and Xiao Wu to help. If she had assigned them, then Xiao Si and Xiao Wu would have been helping her. So Wen Xinchun told Wenrou to discuss it with Xiao Si and Xiao Wu herself, so that they would be helping Wenrou. In the future, if Xiao Si and Xiao Wu need anything, Wenrou would have no reason to refuse.
After all, her two younger brothers had helped her before.
Wen Xinchun hurriedly left for work. Wenrou looked at Xiao Si and Xiao Wu sitting at the table eating breakfast and said, "Xiao Si, Xiao Wu, I've been too busy lately. Could you please help look after Guangzong and Yaozu? I'll pick them up when I'm done with my work."
Looking at the beautifully colored breakfast on the table, Wenrou swallowed hard. She had never eaten breakfast like this before; she had only eaten steamed buns, mantou, and cornbread.
There's such a good breakfast at home, yet they don't give it to her and the children. It's true what they say, a married daughter is like water spilled from a cup; don't blame her for scheming for herself.
Xiao Si and Xiao Wu exchanged a helpless glance. Xiao Si said, "Alright, big sister, you go ahead and get busy!"
He then took a piece of steamed cake, broke it in two, and gave it to Yang Guangzong and Yang Yaozu. Both children had their names given by Yang Lianghui, and they felt incredibly embarrassed when they heard them.
When Wenrou saw that her two younger brothers wouldn't give her any, she went over and took a piece herself. She took a bite, and it was soft, fluffy, and sweet—delicious!
Wenrou is quite far from Xiao Si and Xiao Wu in age, so they don't spend much time together. Moreover, Wenrou isn't nice to Xiao Si and Xiao Wu. In addition, she signed Wenxi up for the rural service program and even threatened to kill her. Xiao Si and Xiao Wu don't like Wenrou anymore and prefer Wenxi, who treats them better. Therefore, neither of them wants Wenrou to come back.
Now that Wenrou has sent the two children back, Wenxi definitely won't be coming back.
Wenrou dropped the child off and left. Yang Lianghui was at work today, so she could take advantage of the situation. As soon as she got home, Wenrou went to her neighbors to ask if they needed any furniture, as she wanted to sell some of her own.
Wenrou sold some of the furniture in her house for one or two yuan or five yuan, and that's how she got a few dozen yuan. She had no choice. Yang Lianghui had been swindling money from her all these years, and she had used all her money to support her family. If she didn't get more money this way, she would definitely be kicked out penniless when Yang Lianghui was in a hurry to let others in. So she had to get more money.
With money, she can raise the child and then compete with Yang Lianghui for the child. She definitely can't let the child live under a stepmother.
Few children who live with their stepmothers are happy.
That night, Wenxi and the other two stayed in their respective rooms at the guesthouse. Just as Wenxi was about to go to sleep, the system suddenly issued another task. This system really liked to issue tasks before she went to sleep. It knew that she was already very sleepy at this time, but it didn't let her go to sleep immediately. It was really annoying.
Wenxi moved the large cabinet out and placed it behind the door, worried that if someone came to her room and saw that no one was there when she wasn't there, it would cause some negative impact.
Then Wenxi clicked 'teleport', and a few seconds later, Wenxi appeared in a bright and dazzling world, where the wind seemed to carry fire, and it was extremely hot.
Wenxi looked around and, finding no surveillance cameras, walked behind a tree, slipped into the system's inventory, and took out a modern dress to change into.
Since she had just seen a clean and spacious cement road, she knew this place was definitely modern. As for whether it was from the previous mission world, that was unknown.
After changing into a modern dress, Wenxi came out immediately, because saving lives was the priority at the moment, and other things could be figured out later.
Wenxi followed the system arrow and walked forward. Unexpectedly, the destination was a natural body of water. She didn't know if it was a reservoir or something else, but it certainly didn't look like a river.
However, the water was calm and there was no sign of any problem.
