Madam Wei sighed. “Our in-law’s madam passed away a while ago. Our in-law was also old and his health is not as good as before. Her brother went on an errand on behalf of his parents and seems to have failed. I asked her what was going on, but she didn’t say. She went over tonight and will probably be back tomorrow morning. By the way, where are Little Seven and Xiaoxiao? Are you with them, or—”

Wei Qing smiled and said, ‘We came back together. Dahu and the others are still young. The carriage can’t be too bumpy. They should be arriving soon.” The night was dark and windy, beside a certain official road.

The three little ones squatted on the ground with their bare butts and grabbed the small stones in front of them.

Wei Ting stood behind them expressionlessly and looked down at the three brats. “Are you still pooping?

They had been squatting here for fifteen minutes. The wind was so strong. Were they iron butts?

“Yes,” Dahu said,

However, he refused to poop.

Wei Ting said coldly, “Get up!”

Xiaohu played with the foxtail grass in his hand and said, “I’m not getting up. I want to poop.”

Wei Ting muttered, “I think you guys are asking for a beating!”

The three of them slept all the way during the day, but at night, they were energetic. They were not sleepy at all and could cause trouble.

Wei Ting said sternly, “Erhu, get up.”

Erhu was the most obedient one. Wei Ting started with him.

Unexpectedly, Erhu asked, “Why didn’t you ask Dahu and Xiaohu to get up?”

Wei Ting snorted. “You’re not getting up, right? Alright, squat here. Your mother and I will leave first.”

Xiaohu said, “Mother won’t leave! Daddy can leave!”

“Little brat, are you out of control? Do you believe that I’ll wake your mother up?

Wei Ting narrowed his eyes dangerously and carried the three little fellows up. He pulled up their pants and stuffed them into the carriage.

“Ah Fu, let’s go.”

“Yes, Young Master.”

Unexpectedly, before the carriage could move, Xiaohu shouted, “I have to pee.”

Wei Ting did not fall for his trick. “You’ll pee when you get back.”

Xiaohu covered his crotch. “I can’t hold it in anymore.”

Wei Ting looked at the sleeping Su Xiaoxiao. He didn’t want the brats to wake her up. He took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his body. He said to

Ah Fu, “Stop for a moment.”

Ah Fu stopped the carriage beside the official road.

Wei Ting brought Xiaohu out of the carriage.

Xiaohu peed… a little.

Wei Ting asked, “Is this what you can’t hold in?”

The father and son sat back in the carriage.

Wei Ting thought that nothing would happen this time. Erhu pulled his sleeve. “Daddy, Erhu wants to pee too.”

Wei Ting was frustrated. “Why didn’t you say so just now?”

On this side, Wei Ting was being tortured by the three little ones. On the other side, Li Wan had also suffered an overwrought. It was not as she had told her mother-in-law. Her brother had not run into issues working for her father, but had partnered up with someone to do business and was tricked by the other party.

The Li family had lost all their assets, including her father’s funeral expenses.

Not to mention that she could earn more money if they ran out of money. The problem was that they still owed a huge debt. The three sisters-in-law at home cried and threw a tantrum. They were so noisy that they wished they could split up.

But now, what was there to split in this family? There was only debt left.

Li Wan’s eldest sister-in-law suggested borrowing money from the Wei family, but she was scolded fiercely by Li Wan’s brother.

“The Wei family has already helped us enough. Don’t cause trouble for Sister anymore!”

Li Wan’s father was Lord Wu An’s subordinate. When he was young, he followed Lord Wu An everywhere. Later on, he was injured and could not go to the battlefield. Lord Wu An found him an official position in the military camp.

The Li family could be considered a family of generals for several generations and was quite famous in the military. However, they were too honest and unyielding. To put it bluntly, they did not know how to fish for benefits from the Imperial Court. The few prosperous shops of the Li family were sent over by Lord Wu An in the name of a betrothal gift.

Li Wan’s mother was a smart woman. Over the years, she had managed the shops well. Unfortunately, Li Wan was the only one in the family who took after her. Her three sons were not cut out for business.

She had only been gone for less than two months, but her family’s business had already been ruined.

The eldest sister-in-law of the Li family cried, “But… if we don’t return the money tomorrow… our shops… and this house… will have to be paid to them…’

Li Wan went to the other party’s shop that night.

“Fifth Master Liu, Third Master Qin, how have you been?”

In the room, two middle-aged men looked at Li Wan.

Li Wan married into the Wei family at the age of 16 and gave birth to Wei Xiyue at the age of 17. She was only 24 years old and was at the age of being as beautiful as a flower. In addition, she practiced martial arts all year round and had a flexible and powerful figure. There was a hint of heroic spirit in the woman’s gentleness. The two of them had seen many weak beauties. When they suddenly saw Li Wan, their eyes lit up.

Li Wan automatically ignored their greasy gazes and explained her intentions.

Third Master Qin smiled. “In that case, does your Li family want to go back on your word?”

Li Wan said coldly, “You guys teamed up to cheat my brother. I’ve already done my best by not going to the government to sue you.”

Third Master Qin said, “It’s written in black and white that I bought your family’s materials at three times the market price. You have to ship the goods within three months. Otherwise, you have to compensate me ten times the price. Even if you go to the government to sue me, I have a reason! Who cheated you? Right? Back then, it was your brother who personally signed it. I didn’t hold a knife to his neck. I even asked him a few times if he could really provide so much. If not, it’s fine if it’s less. Your brother said that there’s no problem!”

Who wouldn’t be tempted by the high price of three times? Her brother was stupid because he couldn’t see through the trick.

They bought the Li family’s fabric at three times the market price, but they secretly bought the silk and sang hemp that was supplied to the Li family at twice the price. The Li family could not gather so many raw materials for the time being, so they naturally could not deliver them on time.

This way, they could earn a sky-high compensation.

Although their methods were dirty, as they had said, her brother was the one who signed the contract and agreed to the order. If they really reported it to the authorities, the outcome would not be good for the Li family.

“Do you know who I am?” Li Wan asked.

Third Master Qin smiled and said, “I know. So what if you’re the Second Madam of the Wei family and Wei Erlang’s widow? Isn’t your man dead? Could it be that he can jump out to support you? General Wei isn’t in the West Capital anymore. Your Wei family doesn’t even have a man to support you. Do you really think I’m afraid?”

Li Wan said, “So that’s what you think.”

Fifth Master Liu smiled and picked up a glass of wine before walking towards Li Wan. “Actually, it’s not impossible to give you a few days. Drink this glass of wine. I’ll make the decision and I can give you three days. If you can drink two glasses, then I can give you six days. How many days you can drink tonight. Do you think this is a good deal?”

As he spoke, his perverted hand reached out to touch Li Wan’s butt.

Li Wan grabbed his wrist and snatched his wine glass. She threw him to the ground and splashed an entire glass of wine on his face.

Third Master Qin stood up. “Stupid woman! Don’t be so shameless! Someone!

Attack! ”

A group of powerful guards rushed in.

These people were not ordinary thugs. They were all well-trained and were not inferior to the martial artists in the military camp.

“Catch her and tie her up! I want to have a taste of the Wei family’s widow tonight!” After Third Master Qin finished speaking arrogantly, he looked at Li Wan and smiled evilly. “You man has been dead for so many years. You must be feeling empty, right? Don’t be afraid. Master Qin will dote on you tonight!” The guards closed the door with a bang and rushed towards Li Wan.

It was not a problem for Li Wan to deal with three or four. She could escape with five or six, but she was outnumbered with more than ten. Moreover, the door was closed.

Seeing the situation turn around, something unexpected happened.

With a bang, the door was kicked open fiercely. A terrifying shadow flashed in and knocked down the group of people in one move. Before anyone could see how he attacked, all the guards in the house fell.

Third Master Qin and Fifth Master Liu were dumbfounded.

Fifth Master Liu got up and stood beside Third Master Qin. The two of them looked at the open door in a daze.

A wheelchair was slowly pushed in. Sitting in the wheelchair was a man in a white cloak. He was wearing a silver mask that covered half of his face, revealing a pair of cold eyes. Under the mask, his pale lips were pursed.

It was obvious that he was unhappy.

The charming girl pushing the wheelchair mocked, “So many stinky men bullying a woman. Shameless!”

The assassin asked, “Sir, how should we deal with them?” Wei Qing’s thin lips parted. “Break their arms and throw them out.”

“Yes!”

The assassin pulled the screen closed. The scene was too bloody to dirty Sir’s eyes.

Fifth Master Liu’s voice came from behind the screen. “Stop, stop! Do you know who we are? We are… Ah—”

Li Wan’s heart tingled. She swore that it was the most miserable scream she had ever heard.

She stared blankly at the man in the wheelchair.

“I’ll go over myself,” Wei Qing said.

“Oh.” Mei Ji let go.

Wei Qing pushed the wheelchair slowly to Li Wan and looked up at her with a smile.

The moment he entered, Li Wan’s gaze never left him.

She shifted her gaze from the mask on his face to the wheelchair he was sitting on, from his thin jaw to his well-defined wrist—

Four years ago. her husband said to her in the shop. “Choose the jewelry first-

I’ll pick you up later.”

Once he left, it would be a separation between life and death.

Li Wan’s eyes flickered. She raised her hand and slowly took off his mask.

He smiled gently. “Wanwan, I’m here to bring you home.”

Li Wan’s tears fell..
