Shen Chen raised his eyebrows, without any hesitation, and said directly: "Just bring the person here. As for the wet nurse, if she is willing to come, she can come. If she is not willing to come, she doesn't have to come. Also, go ask where the people who used to serve her have gone."
The people around Wei Yuyou were all given by the Third Madam, and they were very loyal, which was incomparable to the servants of the Li family. If they were still around Wei Yuyou, how could Wei Yuyou be forced into this state, and it would be impossible for him to be imprisoned at home for so long without anyone informing him.
Li San is not good at other things, but apart from being ambitious, he is really a capable person when it comes to disciplining his wife. If he could use half of these crooked ideas on his job, he wouldn't be stuck in the current situation where he is neither high nor low.
When Xuesong heard him say this, he knew what was going on. He turned around and showed no mercy. He broke into Old Lady Li's room with Wei Rui and a few sturdy old women. He first kicked away the wet nurse who had been trying to stop them, and then forcibly took Zhao Ge'er away.
Old Lady Li was being pestered by Wang Tuiguan and was anxious and angry. Seeing the people from the Wei family coming in and out of Wei Yuyou's house as if it were their own home, she couldn't help but get even angrier: "You rotten-hearted people, seeing that others are powerful, you just fawn on them and treat our family as an easy target, bullying us like this!"
As she spoke, she suddenly made up her mind and stared with an uncertain look at the pillar that Mrs. Li had hit before.
She knew that they were all being plotted against by the Wei family and Shen Chen. Outsiders would think that she had bullied her two daughters-in-law, which led to even the eldest daughter-in-law, who was content to be a widow, becoming angry and wanting to commit suicide.
If this goes on, the Wei family will become so powerful that even their sons won’t be able to do anything to them.
But if she died...
That's different.
People outside don't know the details. People in this world are always more sympathetic to the weak, and when she is compared with wealthy families like the Wei family, she is obviously as weak as an ant.
By then everyone will definitely think that it was the Wei family who forced her to death.
With this in mind, Wang Tuiguan took a step forward, frowning, and had already put away his previous kind face. He said softly, "Old lady, please give us a break, so that we can all avoid losing face and just go."
Shen Chen watched coldly from the side, without even glancing at them. He fixed his eyes on the wall in the yard, waiting for Wei An to come out.
Wei Yuyou couldn't help crying when she saw Wei An.
When they were young, the two of them didn't get along and were uncomfortable with each other. Wei Yuyou bullied her a lot, but after they got married, they realized how narrow-minded and ridiculous their previous thoughts were. Those thoughts that they shouldn't have had were long gone. Over the years, the relationship between the two sisters has been much better than when they were at home.
When she saw Wei An, she cried loudly and held her hand, unable to speak.
Even Nanny Wang who was watching nearby couldn't help but feel pity. She was such a spoiled girl before, but now she had been worn down by life into this state. She had no temperament at all and was like a frightened rabbit.
The Li family is really going too far.
Wei An heard her crying until her voice was hoarse, and hurried to comfort her. When he raised his eyes, he saw the wound on her face. He was stunned for a moment, and then he touched her face and asked her, "What happened?"
Nanny Wang also exclaimed.
Zi He, who was standing next to him, was already shaking with anger. When she heard Wei An's question, she said without thinking, "It was that son-in-law who did it. This is really new. There are so many men in our family, but I've never heard of anyone who would lay hands on a woman..."
Wei Yuyou held Wei An's hand and just shook his head: "An An, I have no other choice. I just ask you to think of a way to prevent Zhao Ge'er from staying in this quagmire. Li San will not do anything to him now, but in the long run, I will not be able to do it anymore. He will definitely have to marry a new wife. By then, how can Zhao Ge'er have a good life? The people in their family are all cannibals..."
Wei An patted the back of her hand and said, "No, Fifth Sister, Third Aunt and the old lady have all told me to take you back. Don't worry, it's not just Zhao Ge'er, we'll go back together."
Although he said so, Wei Yuyou actually didn't hold out any hope.
She knew the Li family's character best. They were a family that couldn't stand others doing well. If they themselves were down and out, they would never sit idly by and watch their rivals live a good life. They would do whatever it took to mess things up.
After all, Zhao Ge'er is a member of their Li family. As long as they are unwilling to let him go, no matter how powerful the Wei family is, they will not be able to justify it.
Wei An blinked at her and said, "Your mother-in-law is going to jail now. Magistrate Wang from Shuntian Prefecture has arrived. She wants to force the first wife to death. If the first wife wants to sue her first, she will have to go to jail first. How can she care about you? Don't worry."
Since they have completely offended the Li family, it is impossible for them to gain a foothold in the Li family anymore. Mrs. Li is an extremely smart person. As soon as she saw the Wei family's actions, she knew what to do. She had already started crying to Wang Tuiguan and told him about her grievances.
As a reward, the Wei family will not sit idly by and watch Madam Li being bullied, and will definitely provide proper accommodation for her and her children.
Wei Yuyou didn't react for a moment. When he saw the cunning look in Wei An's eyes, he was stunned for a moment, then he was a little bit unbelievable: "Then... then Zhao Ge'er..."
"You don't have a person in charge in your family, so how can they take good care of you and Zhao Ge'er? You are sick now, so it is natural for you to go back to your parents' home with your family. We can talk about other things later." Wei An smiled and told Zi He, "Okay, go and pack things for Fifth Sister."
Wei Yuyou shook his head and sneered: "Forget it, there is nothing to pack. He has taken away all the things I brought with me. What else is left? Even the jewelry has been taken away."
Wei An didn't say anything else. He whispered a few words to Zi He, then personally helped Wei Yuyou get up and put on his shoes.
Lin Hai's family just came in after they left: "Princess, Fifth Aunt, Zhao'er has been brought in and is now being held by the Marquis. The Marquis sent me to ask if you are well. If you are, go home first. The old lady and the third lady are waiting."
When Wei Yuyou heard that Zhao Ge'er had been found by Shen Chen, she was surprised and delighted. She nodded with tears of joy and said, "Okay, okay, I'll go out right away." She turned back and looked at Wei An, pouting and aggrieved, "I haven't seen Zhao Ge'er for a long time. I don't know if he still recognizes me."
Wei An felt sad for her and comforted her: "He will definitely recognize her. There is still a long time to go." (To be continued)
