Chapter 808: Mother's Home



Feng Xueying refused. Witnessing Wen Yiran's dangerous illness, Feng Xueying was still terrified. If Wen Yiran collapsed at this moment, what would she do? What would the Wen family do?

Feng Xueying insisted that Wen Yiran go to Renhe Hospital for two days of hospitalization and observation. Wen Yiran couldn't persuade his wife, and he also wanted to stay at home. He would be upset if someone came to pay New Year's greetings and asked about Wen Yulong. It would be better to change the environment and relax, so he followed the ambulance to the hospital.

Feng Xueying accompanied Wen Yiran to the hospital. After seeing them off, Aunt Wang slowly walked back to the kitchen.

Aunt Wang was in a complicated mood. Just when Wen Yiran was ill, she saw He Jingjing standing on the stairs, looking coldly at Wen Yiran and his wife. The cold light in He Jingjing's eyes made Aunt Wang shiver.

Aunt Wang had just wanted Feng Xueying and her husband to be wary of He Jingjing. But after thinking it over, Aunt Wang decided not to speak. Feng Xueying had a terrible temper. If she knew about this, she would definitely make a scene. Wen Yiran was ill, and Aunt Wang didn't want to add to his psychological burden. Alas! Let's wait until the eldest young master comes home! Of all the people living in this house, only the eldest young master, Wen Ziqing, was reliable. The others... Aunt Wang really couldn't trust them.

Wu Xiuli didn't know what had happened in the Wen family. She received a call from Old Mrs. Wu early in the morning, saying that her parents had something to discuss with her and asked her to go back to her parents' home as soon as possible.

Ever since the Wu family moved to Kyoto City, whenever they made any major decisions, they would invite Wu Xiuli, their married sister-in-law, to come home. The Wu family's "importance" for Wu Xiuli made Wu Xiuli feel proud.

In order to increase her weight in her family, Wu Xiuli would often bring Wen Ziyun and his sister back to her family. As grandchildren of the Wen family, Wen Ziyun and his sister still had great power in the Wu family.

As Wu Xiuli and Wen Ziyun walked to the door of her mother's house, they heard a burst of crying and shouting from inside. It seemed to be her sister-in-law Zhang Meihua.

Wu Xiuli was stunned. The New Year wasn't even over yet! Sister-in-law was crying so miserably, wasn't she afraid of ruining her fortune for the year?

The neighbors were all peeking in, and when they saw Wu Xiuli, they closed the door of their yard with embarrassment. Wu Xiuli often came to her parents' home, and the neighbors knew that Wu Xiuli was the youngest daughter of the Wu family who married into a high-ranking official's family to enjoy a good life.

I don’t know if it was because they were waiting for Wu Xiuli, but the door to the Wu family’s courtyard was wide open.

Wu Xiuli felt a little disgusted with her mother's family for bringing shame upon them. They didn't know how to hide what was happening at home. They closed the door to the yard, and no matter how noisy it was inside, the noise outside should be quieter!

Wu Xiuli curled her lips, but still walked through the gate of her mother's yard with Wen Ziyun and his sister. Now that we're at the door, we can't just turn around and leave, right?

Standing in the courtyard, Wu Xiuli could see through the window that her eldest sister-in-law, Zhang Meihua, was sitting on the sofa in the living room, sobbing bitterly. Her second sister-in-law, Xiao Hongyu, had her back to the window, her expression invisible. Old Man Wu was squatting outside the hall door, his head down, fiddling with his water pipe. He didn't even notice Wu Xiuli and the others had entered.

Mrs. Wu was standing in front of Zhang Meihua in the living room, looking helpless.

"Ziyun and Ziqiu, go play with your cousins." Wu Xiuli frowned at the chaotic scene at her parents' house. If she had known, she wouldn't have brought the children here. If her parents' house wasn't doing well, the two children would look down on them in the future.

Every time Wu Xiuli brought Wen Ziyun and her brother to visit, it was to show off her status in the Wen family in front of her mother's family. The two children were members of the Wen family, and they obeyed their mother's orders. This was the greatest confidence of this little sparrow who had "flew onto the tree".

Every time the Wen Ziyun siblings visited the Wu family, everyone from Old Man Wu and Old Lady Wu to their cousins treated them with respect and fawning respect. But today was an exception. Not only was Old Man Wu and his family in no mood to pay attention to the Wen Ziyun siblings, but even their cousins were holed up in their rooms, not a single one coming out to greet these two former "treasures" of the Wu family.

Wen Ziyun frowned, looked at the narrow courtyard with disdain, and said nothing.

After Wen Ziyun and He Jingjing's showdown last night, they reminisced about the "big things" they were going to do, and then made love again. This time, Wen Ziyun, wanting to impress He Jingjing with his "strength," forced himself to play for most of the night, only to sneak back to his room at dawn and sleep for an hour or two before being woken by his mother.

Wen Ziyun was already quite impatient when he came to the Wu family to pay New Year's greetings. The Wu family was superficial. Every time they came, his cousins and aunts would ask Wen Ziyun dozens of times what the compound they lived in was like, and they would also do everything they could to get Wen Ziyun to buy them things. Wen Ziyun only tolerated the Wu family's "superficiality" for Wu Xiuli's sake. When he came to the house today, he saw that no one in the Wu family paid any attention to them. Wen Ziyun was very unhappy. If it weren't for his mother Wu Xiuli's face, Wen Ziyun would have wanted to walk away.

Wen Ziqiu was the same. Every time she visited her grandmother's house, she looked down upon her family. Her cousins were sweet-talkers and flattered her. This was the first time she had ever been treated so coldly.

"Tsk! Hurry up!" Wu Xiuli stuffed the things she was carrying into the hands of Wen Ziyun and Wen Ziqiu, indicating that they should share some of the things with each uncle's family. Although the Wu family lived in a small courtyard, the two brothers each had two rooms, and they had their own little world. Every time Wu Xiuli returned to her parents' home, she would prepare some food and daily necessities for each of the two families, otherwise her two sisters-in-law would be unhappy.

"Mom, I want to buy that tweed coat from the First Department Store." Wen Ziqiu took the opportunity to make a request, implying that she would not cooperate unless Wu Xiuli agreed.

"Hiss!" Wu Xiuli gasped. Before the Lunar New Year, Wen Ziqiu had fallen for a beige tweed coat on sale at the First Department Store. It cost over three hundred yuan, equivalent to two months' salary for Wen Yulong. Wu Xiuli couldn't bear to part with it, so she didn't buy it for Wen Ziqiu. Unexpectedly, Wen Ziqiu, who had been obsessed with it, actually used this as a bargaining chip to blackmail her.

"I want five hundred yuan." Seeing how clever Wen Ziqiu was, Wen Ziyun quickly made his own request. After all, he was a grown man with a "girlfriend" now. He couldn't possibly not have enough money to buy a gift for his "girlfriend," right?

"Okay, okay, Mom agrees." Seeing her son join in the fun, Wu Xiuli thought about her relatively generous wallet and agreed immediately. Didn't she see the impatience on the faces of her beloved son and daughter? If she didn't agree, they might just turn around and leave. If that happened, how would Wu Xiuli save her face in her family?
