Chapter 220: Wen Xingluo, you covet Xie Guanlan, you have no shame and dirty thoughts
Feeling Wen Rufeng's terrifying gaze, Wen Yueyin's face was filled with fear and he subconsciously took two steps back.
She waved her hands repeatedly, "No, that's not the case... The people who sell the holy water say that the holy water is obtained from the foot of the sacred mountain in Tianzhu Kingdom. The top scorers in previous years all drank this..."
"Wen, Yue, Yin!"
Wen Rufeng roared, interrupting her explanation, and suddenly rushed over and grabbed her neck tightly.
His eyes were bloodshot. "I told you I didn't want to drink, why did you force me to drink?! It's because I believed your lies that I failed the exam! Did you know that the exam only comes once every three years?! You're ruining my official position and my future!"
He tried his best to vent all his grievances and resentment, disregarding the love between brother and sister and his elegance and decency.
Wen Yueyin's face gradually turned red and purple from being pinched.
She tried to hit Wen Rufeng's hand, but she was weak and frail, and she didn't have the strength to compete with the man, so she had no way to break free from his hand.
Seeing that she was about to suffocate, Wen Ruyun hurried forward to pull Wen Rufeng away, "Brother, what are you doing? There are so many people watching here!"
Wen Rufeng's eyes were bloodshot and he turned around angrily and wiped his tears.
Wen Yueyin hunched over, covered his neck uncomfortably, and kept coughing violently.
She raised her eyelids with difficulty and stared at Wen Rufeng hatefully.
In his previous life, Wen Rufeng had clearly passed the imperial examination and was admitted to the Li Yuanlang Academy, and his family was extremely prosperous. She did not blame him for his missteps in this life, but he resented her!
She felt ashamed and angry when she realized that everyone around her was laughing at her and pointing fingers at her siblings.
She choked up and complained, "The imperial examination is held every three years. Even if Big Brother didn't do well this time, he can keep trying next time. Why are you taking out all your anger on a girl like me?! You have so many chances in life, but I only have one! Wuuuuu!"
She sobbed and couldn't speak, then turned around and threw herself into Wen Ruyun's arms.
"you--"
Wen Rufeng pointed at her, so angry that he couldn't speak.
While Xu Miaomiao was trying to calm him down, she accused Wen Yueyin, "Sister Yueyin, how could you speak to your brother like that? Do you know how hard your brother works studying?! An elder sister-in-law is like a mother. Today, in front of everyone, I, as his sister-in-law, will make the decision. You must apologize to your brother right away!"
"A sister-in-law is like a mother?" Wen Yueyin suddenly raised her head and stared at Xu Miaomiao fiercely. "My mother is still alive and well, how can you be considered a sister-in-law like a mother?"
Xu Miaomiao's face turned pale, "Sister Yueyin——"
"Don't act like an elder sister-in-law in front of me," Wen Yueyin spoke quickly, her face full of resentment. "If it weren't for your generous dowry, my eldest brother wouldn't have married you! My eldest brother has already made up his mind. Once he passes the imperial examination and becomes the third place in the imperial examination, he will demote you to a concubine and marry another noblewoman from a higher-class family!"
Xu Miaomiao couldn't believe it, "Husband, is what she said true?!"
Wen Rufeng was furious, "Wen Yueyin! Are you crazy? You're telling everyone everything?!"
"Big Brother is going to kill me, why can't I tell him?!"
Wen Yueyin felt extremely aggrieved.
From childhood to adulthood, she has been treated like a treasure by her father and brothers.
They were afraid of losing it if they held it in their hands, and afraid of it melting if they held it in their mouths. Even if she wanted to be the Crown Princess in her previous life, they would not hesitate to kill Wen Xingluo to put the throne of the Crown Princess in front of her.
But in this life, the eldest brother actually wanted to strangle her to death!
Wen Rulei sneered, "Brother, you see, right? Wen Yueyin is the scourge of our family! In my opinion, we shouldn't spoil her. We should give all our love and care to Xingluo!"
Wen Yueyin's eyes turned redder, and she pinched her palms tightly, "Third brother, didn't you miss the opportunity to be with General Li and didn't become a guard? That's why you resent me! What love and pity are you talking about? What you regret is not not treating Wen Xingluo well, but the lost fame, fortune and future! You are a completely selfish person, you are not even as good as Xie Shian!"
Wen Rulei's face turned pale and he roared, "Wen Yueyin!"
"Alright!" Wen Ruyun held Wen Yueyin in his arms. "You two should all keep quiet! Everyone's watching. Is it honorable to keep arguing?! Yueyin, this is indeed your fault. Just apologize to Big Brother and that'll be all!"
Apologize?
Wen Yueyin looked at Wen Ruyun in disbelief.
Wen Ruyun doted on her the most. Every time there was a dispute at home, he would force Wen Xingluo to apologize, even if he was indeed wrong.
Why did he ask her to apologize one day?
She struggled to break free from Wen Ruyun, tears streaming down her face. "At this point, even my second brother doesn't love me anymore?! Have you forgotten last summer, when the southwest flooded, I worked tirelessly to find ways to help you stockpile food and make money?! I lived in the cave with you for so long, and I suffered so much for you. Have you forgotten all that?!"
When Wen Ruyun mentioned this matter, his face turned gloomy.
He folded his folding fan impatiently. "In the end, didn't we make any money?! It's all your fault, giving us useless advice. That's why our family is in this state today!"
At that time, not only did they not make any money by hoarding food, they even lost the family’s savings.
He simply couldn't understand how Wen Yueyin had the nerve to bring this up!
"Blame me?! You actually think it's my fault that our family hasn't lived a good life?!" Wen Yueyin burst into tears and hysterically said, "If you don't make any money, isn't it all because of you, second brother?! You look like you're fiddling with the abacus every day, but in reality, you don't make a single penny! You're just a loser! I really don't know how you became the richest man in your previous life!"
The guests watched them blaming each other and were stunned.
Wen Xingluo watched the excitement, and a look of deep irony appeared in his round almond-shaped eyes.
She had no interest in watching them fight each other any longer. Just as she was about to turn and leave, Wen Yueyin suddenly pointed at her and yelled, "And you, Wen Xingluo! You followed your mother into the palace, yet you covet your elder brother, Xie Guanlan. You have no shame and a dirty mind!"
The originally bustling garden suddenly became silent.
Wen Xingluo suddenly turned around and stared at Wen Yueyin.
