Dressed As a Farm Boy, He Cheated on His Way Out of the Desert.: Chapter 263 Reassurance from the family

Chapter 263 Reassurance from the family

Dusk in the small town of Luo'an is the busiest of the day. School is over, and students come out in groups to find a place to eat something good. They worry about their homework and secretly complain to their teachers. This is the most relaxing moment of the day. .

Wang E held hands with her eldest son after school. She was happy to hear her son talking happily about the praise he received from his teacher today, but she still hit her son with a cold face, "Beware of arrogance and impetuosity. I have only been studying for a few days. No matter how good you are, it will be limited." I will continue to work hard in the future and add ten big characters when I go back tonight!”

 Brother Li was originally smiling, but his mother poured cold water on him, and he wilted, "Yes, mother."

Wang E couldn't bear to let her son be like this, so she bought a box of snacks and told her son to study hard when he grew up.

 Brother Li responded, but the light in his eyes gradually dimmed.

As soon as the mother and son arrived home, before they could eat, someone found them outside the yard, and the servants ran in frantically to report the news.

“Madam, someone from the tribe came to report that something happened at home.”

"What's going on? Is there something wrong with the business? Quick, let someone come in!" Wang E stood up in shock and quickly called someone in.

Brother Li also put down his snacks, his face full of concern, "Mom, does dad have a headache again?"

Wang E was stunned for a moment and replied: "I'll find out soon."

Soon, the servant brought in a steward.

Wang E also knows him. This person is Wang Er, one of Wang San Ye’s assistants.

"Wang Er, why are you here? What happened to our family?" Wang E couldn't hold her breath and asked.

Wang Er saluted, glanced at Brother Li, and replied: "Don't worry, Madam, it's not a big deal."

Wang E understood and drove her son away, "Brother Li, go wash up and change clothes. We will have dinner soon."

 Brother Li stood up and walked out.

Wang Er then quickly said: "Madam, something serious is going on. A boy from Sihaiju poisoned a guest who came to eat. The guest's family made a fuss at the door of the restaurant. A member of staff went to deal with it. He vomited blood in a hurry. Sihaiju We had no choice but to close our doors. Then the ship the family was transporting goods to was hit by pirates and sank. Several other families came to collect debts, and the staff sold out Sihaiju and several shops to collect the money.

"Seeing that things were not going well, the shopkeepers of each house also asked for a contract of sale and broke up. Now the house is in a mess. The third master asked the villain to come and ask you to go back as soon as possible. If it is later, the situation will be worse."

"No...impossible!" Wang E was a little confused after hearing this, and without caring about being rude, she grabbed Wang Er's arm, "Are you lying to me?"

Wang Er quickly knelt down and said, "Madam, how dare I lie to you? This was all asked by Third Master himself, and even... I'm afraid everyone in the city knows about it now. After all, the Sihaiju incident is so troublesome. big."

Wang E took a deep breath and finally calmed down, but she became a little annoyed.

"Where's the master, what are you doing! Why is Sihaiju so angry that he vomits blood when he can't handle it well?! At a time like this, shouldn't we first bribe the deceased's family and settle the matter first? Why did it end up like this! "

Wang E complained and disliked her husband for not handling the matter well.

Wang Er thought of Wang Yuanwai's miserable appearance on the verge of death, and couldn't help but sympathize with him, so he added an explanation: "Yuan Wai has a serious headache and keeps vomiting blood. The doctor in the palace said that he may not live long."

 “Dad!” Before Wang E could answer, Brother Li, who was eavesdropping outside the door, rushed out.

He pulled Wang Er's sleeve and asked with red eyes: "Is my father going to die? It's impossible! Wow, I want to go home, I want to find my father!"

Wang E also knew that she was scared at this moment. She shouted to the slaves to hook up the carriage and walked back immediately.

Unfortunately, when we rushed outside the city gate, it was already late at night and the city gate was closed, so we could only wait at the door.

 Finally, they stayed up until dawn. As soon as the city gate opened, the carriage quickly entered the city and ran back to the south of the city.

When getting off the bus at the door, Wang E hesitated for a moment and was helped up by the maid, just in time to meet her neighbor next door. Wang E wanted to say hello, but the man turned around and went back with a sullen face.

Wang E frowned, wondering what was wrong with this neighbor, but she had no time to pay attention at the moment.

 In the study room in the front yard, the smell of medicine was overwhelming. Wang Yuanwai was lying on the bed, his face was sallow, and his whole body shriveled up, like a rice stalk swaying in the field in early winter.

Brother Li only took one look at him, then he rushed forward, hugged his father and cried loudly.

Wang E's eyes were also red, and she stepped forward and asked, "Master, what's wrong with you? You're so sick, why don't you send someone to find me?"

Wang Yuanwai shook his head with difficulty, stretched out his hand to touch his son slowly, and drove him to the backyard in a dumb voice, "Go and see your brother."

Brother Li was only nine years old, but the suffering of waiting last night made him grow a lot. Thinking of his young brother, he hurried out.

Wang E wanted to speak, but Wang Yuanwai closed his eyes.

Wang E always felt that something was wrong. Seeing her husband like this, she could not ask further questions, so she could only go out to find her trusted servants and mother-in-law to ask.

As a result, the more she listened, the darker her face became and the more unsure she felt.

  She was mentally prepared for her husband's collapse, but why did the business also have so many problems?

Sihaiju and five shops were almost half of the family’s property. In just one day, they were all gone!

She couldn't bear it any longer, so she took people to the Wang family's old residence.

  Mr. Wang didn’t have time to talk to his old father about the Four Seas Residence last night, so he came over to drink tea with his old father this morning and explain everything clearly.

Finally, he said tentatively: "Dad, Xiao'e has not treated Xinqiu for so many years. Is this because she is afraid that Xinqiu will recover and leave her and the child?"

Mr. Wang took a sip of tea and nodded in response: "You have been paying more attention to Xiao'e's family affairs recently. Back then, your cousin forced him to keep Wang Xinqiu. Once he recovers from his illness, it will be very troublesome to think about the past. . So, Xiao’e did this out of necessity.”

 Forced to stay?

Mr. Wang’s heart skipped a beat and he had some vague guesses.

Before he could ask any more questions, Wang E came crying. As soon as she entered the house, she knelt down.

“Uncle, woo woo, my husband is dying and the business is in trouble. What will the children and I do in the future?”

Mr. Wang quickly helped her up and comforted her: "Why are you panicking? You are a girl from our Wang family, and we will not let you lose your place!"

Even Mrs. Wang also spoke up, "When your father passed away, he left twenty thousand taels of silver for you and put it here with me, so don't be afraid if the family business collapses. As for Wang Xinqiu's serious illness, this is his destiny. Let him take good care of him and wait until the day when he closes his eyes, he can take care of himself.

"When the time comes, let your third brother help you open some good shops and businesses. You can take your two children and continue to live a good life. With the Wang family here, no one will dare to bully you."

Wang E was also surprised when she heard this, and finally stopped crying.

Old Mrs. Wang comforted her a few more times and asked Mr. Wang to send her out.

In the study room in the front yard of the Wang family, Brother Li and Brother Cat were crying with tears on their faces, holding on to their father's arms and not letting go.

Wang Yuanwai gently patted their heads and told them: "I'm afraid dad will never make it. After dad dies, brother Li must study hard, not for the glory of the family, but to learn skills, and then take good care of your brother." You two brothers must depend on each other and live well. As for your mother..."
