Chapter 248 White Pear Cat
Winn's eyes flashed, "Don't worry, I won't ask you for money."
The word "miser" was almost engraved on her forehead.
Wen Wan was seen through at a glance and smiled awkwardly, "Don't talk nonsense, I'm not such a stingy person. Besides, with your status, how could you possibly be short of my little money..."
"I'm short of money." Wen En teased her deliberately. "Who would complain about having too much money? Didn't you always tell me that the purpose of life is to accumulate wealth. The more you accumulate, the more you will gain. No matter how much money you have, you must always take it seriously."
Wen Wan widened her eyes, "???"
Did she also say such misleading words?
She pulled the corners of her mouth awkwardly, "Haha, that's not wrong, but... with our relationship, talking about money is so vulgar. Let's talk about feelings, about romance."
Wen En curled his lips, looking unhappy. "Sister, you also told me that talking about feelings with a girl without talking about money is also a hooligan. Didn't you say that you want me to be a responsible man?"
Wen Wan: “???”
She's going crazy!
When did she tell these honest words to her children?
You dug the hole yourself, and one day you will be buried in it.
She used to be so open-hearted, afraid that her kindness would be taken away by a pig, that she wanted to pass on all her twenty years of social cunning knowledge to him. Who would have thought that in the end, she would be the first victim.
Wen Wan coughed dryly twice, looking furious. She was no longer in the mood to feed the fish and stuffed the fish food into his hand. "You can talk about it or not."
She made a move to stand up and leave, but Winn quickly grabbed her arm.
"Okay, let's talk about feelings, not money."
He wanted to talk about love, especially love between men and women, but unfortunately he knew that if he dared to say it out loud, she would definitely avoid him for the next few days.
"That's more like it."
Wen Wan smiled and sat back down again.
Wen Wan nonchalantly fed the fish. "Sister, you took me to greet Zhao. Did you guess from the beginning that this trip would be difficult?"
Wen Wan didn't deny it, nodded, and motioned him to continue.
"I was also panicked when I saw you being bullied. But when I think about it carefully, with your intelligence, how could the women in this general's mansion be your opponent? If you had the will, how could you really let yourself be bullied to such an extent?"
There was something that Winn didn't say.
Although he didn't like Shen Yu, he had to admit that as a man, Shen Yu was no worse than him at least when it came to protecting his beloved woman.
If Shen Yu could still let her suffer such a great humiliation in the General's Mansion, then he would not be considered a man.
This is the general's mansion. Where in the mansion is there no secret line of Shen Yu? But until now, Shen Yu has not come.
Why?
It can only be because Shen Yu deliberately didn't come.
Wen En remembered that before, Wen Wan called Chen Yu to talk alone under the hibiscus tree. I think the two of them were discussing this matter at that time.
Wen En: "Sister, are you trying to spread the news that the Zhao family can't tolerate me?"
Wen Wan gave him an approving look and said, "Right. So, even if Ling'er hadn't taken the initiative, I would have deliberately found fault and created trouble. Ling'er's actions actually helped me a lot and made things seem much more natural."
"Only when the news that the Zhao family can no longer tolerate you gets out, will your departure from the General's Mansion seem like a natural progression."
Winn curled his lips, "Sister..."
Wen Wan sighed and patted his head, "I don't mean to drive you away. You know very well that the longer you stay here, the greater the risk of being exposed."
Of course Winn understood, but he just felt a little uncomfortable.
"However, it was just a friction with a maid. The conflict wasn't intense enough, so..."
Wen Wan hesitated to speak, pursed her lips, and seemed a little embarrassed.
Wen En was stunned for a moment, then reacted, "Sister, is there anything else you want me to do? Or rather, what do you want me to do as a result of your discussion with him?"
"Sister, just tell me, I will do whatever you say."
For a moment, Wen Wan felt that Wen En was a little too much for her to handle.

Everyone in the general's mansion was shocked.
In one day, the poor relative of Aunt Wan who came to the general's mansion to beg for money molested the maid in the garden, drank the ginseng soup prepared for the old lady in the kitchen, and broke the leg of the Ferghana horse that the general bought at a high price.
"Not only that, he even fed the carp in the lotus pond to death!"
"He dumped two bags of fish food into the pond, killing most of the fish. Is that something a normal person would do?"
Ling'er reported all the news reported from various places in the mansion to Zhao.
Zhao's ears were buzzing and her temples were aching slightly.
Ling'er said, "Madam, you can't keep swallowing your anger like this. I heard he went to the garden again. I'm really worried that he might have eaten the white pears you raised."
Bai Li'er is a Persian cat that Zhao brought from her mother's home. It has a chubby body and was given to her by her grandfather when she was an adult. He said that it could ward off evil spirits and ward off disasters, so Zhao has raised it very carefully over the years.
After careful feeding, the cat became more and more beautiful and became Zhao's favorite.
Zhao frowned and said softly, "Bai Li'er is quite smart, she should be able to avoid it..."
Before she could finish her words, a little girl rushed in crawling.
"Madam, something terrible has happened!"
Zhao said in a low, cold voice, "You have no manners. You are yelling about anything. It hurts my ears."
The little maid fell to her knees and cried, "Madam, it's Bai Li'er. Bai Li'er was... thrown into the water and drowned!"
Hearing this, Zhao stood up in shock, her whole body swaying, "What did you say?"
The little maid kowtowed repeatedly, "Madam, please spare my life. It's not that I didn't do my best, it's just that the guy was too vicious and I couldn't stop him at all."
The little girl is responsible for taking care of Bai Li'er. If Bai Li'er is sick or injured, she will be severely punished.
Bai Li'er died this time, and she couldn't bear the responsibility, so she quickly told everything.
"Madam, it was Aunt Wan's poor relative. He got drunk and acted crazy in the garden. Bai Li'er called out to him twice, and he grabbed Bai Li'er's tail with one hand and strangled her neck with the other."
"He strangled Bai Li'er to death and then threw her into the water."
The little maid seemed to be terrified, her voice trembling. "He also said that a wild cat, ugly as a bastard, and named Bai Li'er, was really unlucky."
After saying that, the little girl looked at Zhao's face carefully, and sure enough, she saw that the expression on Zhao's face had gradually become ferocious.
Even a clay figure has a temper, not to mention that this cat is Zhao's favorite. How could Zhao bear this blow?
Zhao asked in a trembling voice, "Bai, Bai Li'er, where is she?"
The maid pointed in the direction of the garden and said, "It's still in the pond. It was washed to the middle of the lake. The housekeeper is looking for someone to salvage it."
