Eat in Song Dynasty

Chapter 494: Shock

Wen Shu arrived at Wang's house, only to find the door closed. She took three or two steps forward and slammed the door.

The gatekeeper was shocked. It was already night time, so how could such an urgent guest come?

"who?"

"I need to see Madam Wang for something. Please lead the way."

"Do you have a greeting card?"

"You only need to bring a message to Madam Wang, and she will know about it seventeen years ago at the Yushan Hulu Temple."

Seeing her great momentum, the gatekeeper did not dare to neglect her and hurried to pass on the message.

Mrs. Wang was enjoying the cool in the backyard. She was shocked when she heard this and asked, "How old is the person coming?"

"About seventeen or eighteen."

Seventeen or eighteen years old, is that possible? She suppressed her fear and pretended to be calm, "Please invite him to the front hall, I will be there soon."

Not long after Wen Shu entered the front hall, Mrs. Wang arrived.

But she didn't go in directly. Instead, she stood in the shadow outside the hall and looked inside.

It has been seventeen years since that incident, and Nanny Lin, who knew about it at the time, has been dead for three years. How could anyone still know the origins of this young lady?

"Madam, how long are you going to stand outside?" Wen Shu looked directly at where she was hiding, his tone indifferent.

She had just "seen" Wang's house and knew that her father was not there.

Madam Wang straightened her clothes, smiled stiffly and walked in, "Excuse me, what's your name, young lady?"

She asked this, but her eyes were always looking at Wen Shu's face.

"Where does Zou Wei live?"

"Ah?" Wang Fule thought she came here for something that happened more than ten years ago, but he didn't expect that she was asking Zou Wei. He was stunned for a moment.

"He captured my father, and I'm here to take his life back." Wen Shu went straight to the point.

"Who is your father?"

"It doesn't matter who my father is. You just need to tell me where Zou Wei lives, or send someone to ask Zou Wei to release him immediately. Otherwise, if my father is injured, the incident seventeen years ago may not be concealed."

Mrs. Wang turned pale and shouted, "Who are you?"

Wen Shu stood up and walked towards her step by step, "Who do you think I am? It was so cold that night, aunt!"

Seventeen years ago, it was this woman who threw her in front of a dilapidated temple in the wild. If her father and mother had not passed by and saved her, she would have died on that cold night.

"It's you, it's you." Madam Wang fell into the chair, her heart burning, "What do you want to do?
Wen Shu stood up straight and squinted at her: "As long as my father is safe, I won't do anything, but if someone dares to bully my father or me, I'm sorry, Madam Qin..."

"Shut up, shut up!" At this moment, Wen Shu looked like a ghost to Mrs. Wang.

"Where is Zou Wei!" Wen Shu no longer had the patience to deal with her and asked harshly.

"I" Mrs. Wang was about to speak when two men suddenly walked in from outside the flower hall.

"Madam, look who's here?" Wang Cishan brought Qin Jingyang to meet Madam Wang, but they didn't expect there was a guest.

"Aning, why are you here?" Qin Jingyang was very surprised to see Wen Shu.

Wen Shu already knew he was here, and said calmly, "Zou Wei has captured my father, I'm here to take him back."

"What!" Qin Jingyang was greatly surprised, and then he said to Madam Qin: "Aunt, why don't you ask your nephew to release him? He was the one who caused trouble to me first. If he hurts my uncle, I will definitely beat him up again."

Mrs. Wang stared at the man in front of her in a daze, feeling mixed emotions. Normally, she would be happy to see him once in a while, but when she heard her own son calling her aunt, she really didn't know whether to respond or not.

Looking at the tone of his voice when he spoke to me, I couldn't help but feel sour and bitter in my heart.

Wang Cishan had heard about this from Qin Jingyang before and was somewhat dissatisfied with Zou Wei. Upon hearing this, he immediately called the servants outside the flower hall and asked them to go to Zou Wei's mansion to tell him to release the person.

Wen Shu was about to follow Qin Jingyang when she saw him, but Qin Jingyang stopped her and asked, "Where are you going?"

"Of course, I'm going to pick up my dad." Wen Shu shook off his hand.

"I will go with you."

"No need." Wen Shu shook off his hand. "Since you are relatives, just have a good chat. I won't keep you company." After saying that, he ran outside and caught up with the messenger.

Wang Cishan, seeing this, asked curiously, "Who is that young lady?"

Could it be the girl that Jingyang likes?

Mrs. Wang was also worried. She never expected that this young lady actually knew Jing Yang.

Could it be that Jing Yang already knew about this?

Qin Jingyang scratched his head, not knowing whether to tell the truth. Although Wen Shu was his biological sister, his parents had not made it public yet, and Wen Shu had no intention of acknowledging her.
If he told the truth, Wen Shu would probably blame him later.

"A stepsister I met on the road."

"She's just my sister." Wang Cishan felt relieved.

He saw that the girl's behavior did not seem like that of a lady from a noble family. If she was really the girl Jing Yang liked, it would be difficult to deal with. With the family background of the Qin family, it was absolutely impossible to marry such a girl as a daughter-in-law.

Qin Jingyang heard the contempt in Wang Cishan's voice and said solemnly: "Although she is a step-sister, she is no different from my biological sister to me. According to seniority, I should call you uncle and aunt."

"By the way, uncle, my sister just bought a shop on Qianyue Street. It may be open in the next two days. I hope you can take care of her then."

"Don't worry, don't worry. Since you've already asked, there's no reason for us to refuse."

When Mrs. Wang heard that she was just her adopted sister, she felt a little relieved.

She looked at Qin Jingyang carefully. After not seeing him for five years, he had grown taller and more robust, and no longer looked sickly.

It seems that the sister-in-law has listened to her words and no longer forces the child to study and learn to read.

"When did you come to Lin'an? Why didn't you tell us in advance so that your uncle could pick you up?" Mrs. Wang asked with a smile on her face.

Qin Yangyang waved his hand nonchalantly, "I am such a grown-up, what can I do?"

Mrs. Wang's smile froze, then she smiled and said, "That's right, that's right, but since you're here, just stay at home for a while. I'll send someone to clean up the wing rooms now."

"No need to bother." Qin Jingyang took a piece of cake from the table and said while eating, "I will only stay in Lin'an for a few days. I will just stay in an inn for the next few days."

"What? You're leaving again? Where are you going?" Wang Cishan was a little surprised.

"The world is vast, and a real man should naturally travel around."

"That won't do. Your mother is worried about you day and night when you leave home. She even told me in a letter a few days ago that if she sees you, she must keep you."

Qin Jingyang glanced at Wang Cishan and said, "Uncle thinks he can keep me."

Wang Cishan was stunned. He knew his "nephew"'s character best. He was the most dissolute and unruly person.

Not to mention him, even his brother-in-law who is the Vice-Chancellor has a headache.

"Then bring more people. The south is not peaceful right now. There are floods and bandits everywhere. If you go there, you must be extra careful."

"We'll talk about it when the time comes."
