Wen's mother shook her head and said, "No, this has nothing to do with that Pluto. Anyway, go back and tell my father to pretend he doesn't know I'm back. Even if he sees me in the future, he has to pretend not to recognize me."
Having said that, Wen's mother wanted Wang Bo and others to leave.
Wang Bo's eyes were filled with tears, and he felt extremely distressed. "Miss, are you still blaming the master? The master is suffering. He doesn't know how hard you are going through, otherwise he would have come here a long time ago..."
Mother Wen looked at Wang Bo wiping his tears, and the corners of her mouth twitched.
Although Wang Bo is old, he is very emotional and has a very rich train of thought. I guess if I don't explain it to him tonight, he really won't be willing to leave.
"Uncle Wang!"
Wen's mother sighed.
She glanced at the other servants. The only ones Wang Bo could bring along were loyal and trustworthy servants. However, Wen's mother still cautiously pulled Wang Bo to a corner and whispered a few words to him.
"Oh, really?"
Wang Bo exclaimed in surprise.
"Shh!"
Mother Wen shushed him hurriedly and lowered her voice: "Uncle Wang, could you please be a little quieter?"
Wang Bo quickly covered his mouth, his eyes slightly lit up, but also worried.
"Isn't this too dangerous? How about this, young lady, you come back with me first. Back home, at least you'll be safe. As for the young master..."
"I'm not going back."
Mother Wen interrupted Wang Bo bluntly: "What I just told you, you just need to go back and tell Dad. Anyway, just tell Dad not to recognize me. At least until Shaojie finishes his job, Uncle Wang, don't come over during this period of time, so as not to expose the truth."
What can Wang Bo say?
He knew very well what kind of personality his young lady had.
"Alright, alright, Uncle Wang, hurry up and take your people away. No one can see you in my room... Oh, and you can't go out through the main door. It's too easy to be discovered."
Finally, Wang Bo and others left through a hidden small door in the backyard.
Just as Wang Bo and the others left, there was a knock on the door: "Who is it?"
Wen's mother tidied herself up before opening the door.
"Who are you?"
At the door were several guards and two maids, all of them very respectful. The maid stepped forward and said, "Madam Wen, it was Mr. Wen who asked us to come and take you home."
"What do you mean, home?"
Wen's mother looked confused and said, "This is my home."
The old woman smiled and handed over a broken jade pendant, saying, "Don't worry, old lady. We are really sent by Mr. Wen. He said you will know after seeing this."
“This is really Shijie’s.”
Wen's mother took the broken jade pendant.
The old woman smiled and said, "Old Madam, let us help you get into the sedan chair."
"sedan chair?"
Following the mother-in-law's finger, Wen's mother actually saw the sedan chair at the entrance of the alley. It looked quite wealthy.
Although it is dark at night.
But the neighbors still heard the noise and opened their doors to look.
Seeing that there were more people coming to Aunt Wen's house, and this time there were quite a lot of people and they looked quite impressive, someone couldn't help but ask, "Aunt Wen, what happened? Do you need us to help you get the government officials over?"
"No, no, this is someone sent by my son."
Mother Wen smiled and spoke to the neighbors around her, then said to the maid at the door, "Wait a minute, I'll go pack some clothes and come out soon."
The maidservants didn't say anything this time.
Wen's mother stayed in the house for a while. When she came out, almost all the neighbors had opened their doors. Seeing her mother coming out, some enthusiastic aunties came forward and asked with a smile, "Aunt Wen, what's going on? Has this scholar Wen become rich? Why did they send so many people to pick you up? Where are they taking you?"
"Yes, Aunt Wen, where are you going?"
Mother Wen smiled shyly and said, "I don't know about that either, but these are indeed people sent by my son. Thank you for taking care of me these days. These are some worthless things. You can divide them among yourselves later."
Wen's mother brought some peanuts and beans that she had dried at home to the door.
"Madam Wen, let's go." The old woman directed two maids to support Wen's mother on the left and right.
That style is really quite impressive.
Wen's mother, dressed in patched and rough clothes, looked very out of place among these servants who were obviously from wealthy families.
The neighbors were all talking in low voices.
But no one dared to step forward to stop it.
When they reached the entrance of the alley, Aunt Six, who lived there, suddenly appeared and blocked everyone's way, shouting at the top of her lungs, "What are you doing? Where are you taking them?"
"I'm telling you, there are quite a few officials living nearby. Believe it or not, if I shout, the officials will come right over."
After saying that, Sixth Aunt looked at Wen's mother and said, "You silly woman, don't you see your own status? You believe everything people say. Aren't you afraid of being sold? Come here quickly!"
No one expected that Sixth Aunt would show up.
The old woman frowned and was about to ask the guards to get rid of them, but Wen's mother spoke first: "Sixth Aunt, thank you, you are such a kind person. But don't worry, these people were really sent by my son, so you don't have to worry about me. By the way, I will definitely ask my son to return the money I owe you in two days."
Sixth Aunt, feeling somewhat unsure whether to be angry or annoyed, glared fiercely at Wen's mother. "Your son left today empty-handed, a penniless, poor boy. Why don't you think about how your son could have managed to gather so many servants and sedan chairs in just one afternoon? And you... you still claim to be the mother of a successful candidate. How can you be so foolish? Is there really such a thing as a free lunch in this world?"
"Okay, you don't have to be afraid. We're all neighbors. If you feel threatened, just shout. There are so many of us, we're not afraid..."
"Sixth Aunt, these are really people sent by my son. I am not threatened. You misunderstood." Wen's mother interrupted Sixth Aunt's good intentions.
Sixth Aunt: "You..."
"Thank you, Sixth Aunt. I will ask my son to return the money to you later. Thank you all for your care for us mother and son these days." Wen's mother said with a hearty smile.
Aunt Six watched and finally had no choice but to give way.
Wen's mother got into the sedan chair with the help of her maid.
"A sedan chair, maids, old women, and guards. It's obvious they're going to enjoy themselves. Who would go to such great lengths to kidnap someone?"
"Yes, Sixth Auntie, Auntie Wen and her son are penniless and have nothing. Who could kidnap her?"
"You were too nosy just now."
"Isn't it? You're usually not very enthusiastic, but today you've shown up and tried to make your presence felt. You're a good person. This way, Aunt Wen will remember you for standing up for her..."
