"Ahua, mother knows that you have always resented me. You resented me for always asking you to endure, and for always listening to your father..."
Xiao Ruyi said a lot...
Now Xiao Ling'er also realized that she had misunderstood her aunt before. She was not a love-brained person at all.
She has been enduring it and has to endure it. This is the helplessness and sadness of women born in ancient times.
Xiao Ruyi had been married to Fu Xinhan for six years and had only given birth to a daughter, Ahua. She had already committed seven sins, and Fu Xinhan had reason to divorce her.
But he did not divorce his wife. Xiao Ruyi was very touched at that time, thinking that her husband still had her in his heart. Later she understood the reason.
Fu Xinhan had secretly hooked up with Wu Jinyu, the daughter of Wu Yuanwai, and secretly killed her husband Liu Pengfei together.
It was then that Xiao Ruyi realized that her husband was not a good man. He was cruel, selfish, and would do anything for his own benefit.
The Wu family is wealthy and powerful, and they have some connections with the county magistrate. Xiao Ruyi did not expose Fu Xinhan and Wu Jinyu because she knew it would be useless.
In order to protect herself and Ah Hua, she could only pretend to be ignorant. When Fu Xinhan wanted to demote her to a concubine, she did not make a fuss but accepted it happily.
Xiao Ruyi knew clearly that the reason Fu Xinhan didn't divorce her was that she wanted to make her Wu Jinyu's punching bag and the target of beatings and entertainment by Wu Jinyu and her maids.
In this way, the mother and daughter were left in the Wu Mansion. Xiao Ruyi was afraid that these two people would do something bad to her and Ahua, so she could only endure it.
Not only did she endure it herself, but she also made Ah Hua endure it as well, which led to Ah Hua's growing resentment towards her.
In fact, Xiao Ruyi hated Fu Xinhan and Wu Jinyu to the core, but she never found an opportunity, and she and Ahua had to depend on them for life.
"Ahua, no matter what, he is your father. I don't want you to be accused of being unfilial and patricidal, so it's more appropriate for me to do it."
Xiao Ruyi's explanation made Ah Hua throw herself into her arms and burst into tears.
Xiao Ling'er understood Ah Hua's previous grievances, and also understood her relief at this moment.
"Aunt, do you know why Wu Jinyu is traveling alone with so much cargo?" Xiao Ling'er asked the question in her heart.
“Because when the Wu family was about to move, Wu Jinyu pretended to be sick and couldn’t move, and insisted on staying to recuperate for a while before continuing on his journey.
Mr. Wu had no choice but to leave with his family. Because he felt sorry for his daughter, he left behind his second wife Yuan and a hundred guards.
In fact, Wu Jinyu was not ill, but had hidden a large amount of private money and food, and she was reluctant to part with it, so she pretended to be ill and left.
After Xiao Ruyi finished speaking, she glanced at Wu Jinyu's body, and a look of satisfaction flashed in her eyes. Fortunately, this woman claimed to be sick and ran away, giving her the opportunity to kill them.
Humph, this pair of bastards never knew until they died that it was she who bribed a guard from the Wu Mansion and leaked the news to the bandits in advance.
"Why does Mr. Wu indulge Wu Jinyu so much? Doesn't he have any other children?" Xiao Ling'er continued to ask the doubts in her heart.
Wu Jinyu said she would drive her away, but Wu Yuanwai not only did not blame her, but was also willing to keep his stepmother and a hundred guards, which shows how much he doted on her.
"Yes, Mr. Wu has three sons and two daughters. There is a reason why he favors Wu Jinyu. It is because a fortune teller once said that Wu Jinyu is a lucky star.
In the year Wu Jinyu was born, Mr. Wu happened to meet a merchant from Xiliang.
Since then, the Wu family's business has been booming and has rapidly expanded to the Xiliang area, and the Wu family's business has also reached a new level.
The master left a final divination, saying that Wu Jinyu would bring supreme glory to the Wu family in the future, and the next generation of children would be more likely to enter officialdom.
