"Try poking the other side?" Wen Yulong suggested. To be honest, if he hadn't seen Wu Xiuyun do it himself, Wen Yulong wouldn't have believed that the paper crane could fly.
After being reminded by Wen Yulong, Wu Xiuli poked the other wing of the paper crane with her hand, but the paper crane still did not move.
"Strange, why doesn't it move? Could it be expired?" Wu Xiuli didn't believe it and poked the paper crane's wings a few more times.
A spark appeared on the paper crane and it began to burn.
"Ah~!" Wu Xiuli was shocked and screamed, and quickly threw the paper crane in her hand to the ground. Wu Xiuli had no choice but to throw it away. The fire came quickly and the temperature rose quickly. A big blister appeared on the palm of Wu Xiuli's hand.
The paper crane burned very quickly and turned into ashes in a few seconds.
Wu Xiuli and Wen Yulong looked at each other, not understanding what had happened.
"What should I do? I can't contact my sister?" Wen Yulong's voice was filled with regret. If he couldn't contact Wu Xiuyun, it meant that all his plans had been dashed. Without the position of head of the family, Wen Yulong's punishment would likely remain the same.
"It's okay, I'll go back to my mother's house later. My mother has a paper crane!" Wu Xiuli thought about it and came up with a solution.
Wu Xiuli's parents also moved to Kyoto a few years ago. By selling a pill left by Wu Xiuyun, they bought a house and settled down in Kyoto, and also started a business. Over the years, Wu Xiuli's parents have made a lot of money thanks to Wu Xiuli and her husband.
"Okay, you take Ziyun and Ziqiu away, I'll stay home and pick you up on the second day of the New Year." Wen Yulong gritted his teeth and agreed to Wu Xiuli's plan. The news Wen Yiran announced today had made Wen Yulong lose interest in even the New Year's Eve dinner. If it weren't for Wen Yiran, Wen Yulong would have wanted to go back to her parents' home with Wu Xiuli. The sooner he could contact Wu Xiuyun, the sooner he would have found someone to rely on.
"Okay." Wu Xiuli naturally smiled happily when she heard Wen Yulong say that.
"Yulong, what's wrong? We don't beat our wives in our family." At this time, there was a knock on the door. Feng Xueying heard Wu Xiuli's scream and thought that Wen Yulong was scolding Wu Xiuli in the room, so she hurried upstairs to dissuade him.
Wen Yulong and Wu Xiuli were stunned. Neither of them had expected this. What should they do? How should they explain that scream?
Feng Xueying was anxious. She was really afraid that her son would beat his wife. In their Wen family, such a thing could not happen. Feng Xueying waited for a while but saw no response from Wen Yulong and Wu Xiuli. Anxiously, she turned the doorknob with her hand. Fortunately, the door was not locked and it opened with one twist.
"I'll go back to my parents' house first." Wu Xiuli said softly to Wen Yulong, and while Feng Xueying opened the door, she lowered her head and hurried out of the room.
"You bitch, if you dare to go back to your parents' home today, you won't have to come back again." Wen Yulong cursed at Wu Xiuli's back in a hoarse voice. No matter what, Wu Xiuli would not be able to explain herself to Wen Yiran and Feng Xueying if she went back to her parents' home on New Year's Eve.
"Anyway, there's no place for us two mothers to stay here, so we won't come back." Wu Xiuli and Wen Yulong still had a tacit understanding. They turned their heads and said something with their necks stiff, then hurried downstairs.
In the living room, Wang Qiuyan stood up and tried to grab Wu Xiuli, but Wu Xiuli raised her hand and waved her aside. Zhu Xiaoru sat on the sofa, holding her daughter, and said nothing, just watching everything happening in front of her with cold eyes.
Wu Xiuli came to the yard and pulled up Wen Ziqiu who was making a snowman. She looked around and saw that Wen Ziyun was not in the yard. Wu Xiuli didn't care and hurried out of the Wen family's door.
Feng Xueying hurried downstairs, only to see Wu Xiuli's back as she walked out the door.
"What should we do? Lao Wen? Should we get the eldest brother's wife back?" Feng Xueying was a little at a loss and couldn't help but ask Wen Yiran for advice.
"Nonsense, why are you chasing me?" Wen Yiran was so angry that he threw his hand and threw his most beloved purple clay cup. Wen Yiran knew that Wu Xiuli chose to return to her parents' home at this time because she was planning to control them. What would happen if he chased her back? Would Wu Xiuli stop making trouble?
Who will the Wen family be handed over to? Does it require the consent of the eldest brother and his wife?
"Old Wen, don't be angry, don't be angry. Go upstairs and rest for a while." Feng Xueying hurried over to support Wen Yiran, and in her heart she couldn't help but blame Wen Yulong and his wife. Fortunately, Wen Yiran's health has improved a lot in recent years under Zhao Qingshan's care, otherwise he would have been very angry with the eldest brother and his wife.
When it was time to eat the reunion dinner, Wen Yiran forced himself to go downstairs. However, everyone in the Wen family had no appetite for the reunion dinner.
Wu Xiuli never came back, and even Wen Ziyun and Wen Ziqiu were nowhere to be seen. He was the only one in Wen Yulong's family present.
Wen Yulong didn't see Wen Ziqing and was about to curse, but then he remembered that Wu Xiuli and her mother and son were not at home today, so he swallowed the curse that was about to come out.
Wen Yiran had long known that Wen Ziqing had been staying at the Zhou family's for the past few days. Wen Ziqing had even called Wen Yiran today to say that General Zhou had invited him to the family's house for a reunion dinner. Wen Yiran had wanted to share the good news with everyone that afternoon, but unfortunately, Wu Xiuli's disturbance had caused him to forget about it.
Seeing that Wen Yiran was still unhappy, Wen Yuxiang and Wen Yulun also forced themselves to smile. After all, it was New Year's Eve and the whole family was in a quarrel, which was not a happy thing.
After finishing their New Year's Eve dinner, Wen Yulun and his wife took Wen Jing's leave. They were staying at Zhu Xiaoru's parents' home, halfway across the city from Wen Yiran's residence. It was snowing today, and the ground was slippery, so driving would be much slower.
Wen Yuxiang's family lived with Wen Yiran. Although the atmosphere at home was bad, Wen Yuxiang and his wife had no choice but to sit awkwardly in the living room and chat with Wen Yiran and his family, waiting for the New Year's Eve firecrackers.
Wen Ziling, though young, was a bright child. Even when the atmosphere at home was tense, she sat obediently beside her mother, alternately watching TV and then her mind wandering, thinking about where to go tomorrow. Kyoto had so many fun places, and even those snacks—Wen Ziling had been dreaming about them for almost a year.
At eight o'clock, the phone in the living room rang. It was Renhe Hospital calling. The nurse at the hospital said that He Jingjing was missing.
How could He Jingjing, who had been in a coma, disappear from the hospital? Wen Yiran was a little surprised and a little anxious. On the one hand, Wen Yiran asked people to look for He Jingjing near the hospital. On the other hand, Wen Yiran remembered that He Jingjing was the "friend" that Wen Ziqing brought home, so he quickly called Wen Ziqing and asked him to come back.
In Zhoujia Village, Zhou Chunping's family was also in a big quarrel today.
Gu Dahua's parents, three brothers, two sisters and two brothers-in-law ran to Zhou Chunping's house early in the morning to ask for money and food.
