FSC [QT] Chapter 94.2

Arc 5: Swapping Lives (24)

Advertisement

“After all, your twin sister has been with your parents for eleven years. When you first went back, you were definitely not as close to your family as your sister.”

“Don’t be sad because she has spent eleven more years with your family than you. People are all made of flesh and blood. When those people get to know you, they will know how good you are.”

Li Xu was also afraid that Xiao Wu would be jealous of the close relationship between her family and her ‘legitimate’ sister, and couldn’t figure out why, although they were all children from the same mother, she was able to stay at home and live a comfortable and carefree life, while she was stolen by a gangster, wandering in the countryside, and even almost sold to such a dirty place.

On one side was the daughter who had just been found, while on the other was the daughter with whom she had had a deep relationship for eleven years.

Li Xu was worried that those people would choose the latter, which would make her even more sad.

“Also, you can take these things back.”

Li Xu took out a stack of silver notes, which were given to her by Nanny Liu during the day. There were two hundred taels in total, which she said was a thank-you gift for her help in taking care of their young lady over the years. In addition, there was also some jewelry and silk.

Li Xu had never seen so much silver in her whole life, but the nanny didn’t even blink when she took out these silver bills, which showed how wealthy Xiao Wu’s family was.

In operas, young ladies always rewarded servants with silver and copper coins. Li Xu was afraid that Xiao Wu had just returned home and had nothing to reward the servants, so she would be laughed at by the people in the mansion and despised for being the Seventh Young Lady who was stranded outside.

What’s more, Li Xu felt that she was unworthy of the two hundred taels of silver. She actually did not do anything for Xiao Wu over the years.

“Aunt, please accept this money.” Xiao Wu shook her head.

This was what Li Xu deserved. Whether it was the help she had given to the brother and sister when they were young, or her care and love for her over the years, this kind-hearted woman deserved to be rewarded.

“To me, you and Uncle Li have long been my real family.”

Ah Wu hugged Li Xu and said, “Actually, Auntie’s advice to me just now has already made one point clear.”

“For family members who have never lived together, the only bond is blood. As for feelings, where do they come from? Even if there are feelings, they are not deep enough.”

“I chose to leave with Nanny Liu this time, not only because I wanted to see my real family, but also because I wanted to find someone.”

Since waking up, Ah Wu has never given up the plan to find her Brother Yu Yan. However, in this feudal society, there was very little that she could do as a girl.

So, Ah Wu worked hard to practice medicine and picked up the skills in her subconscious, just to find an opportunity to get out of this small village, develop her own power, or make friends with powerful people and rely on their connections to find her brother.

Now the appearance of her real family had accelerated her plan, so Ah Wu followed Nanny Liu to leave even though she knew that Li Xu and others would be sad and reluctant.

“Xiao Wu, what are you…”

Li Xu’s expression was extremely complicated. She always thought that Xiao Wu had let it go. After all, she was only three years old when Yu Yan left. She was stupid and even slower than children of the same age.

“Next time, I will come back with my brother.”

Ah Wu looked into the distance. No matter what he looked like, she only knew that he was her beloved brother.

Li Xu turned her head and wiped her tears.

D*mn Mrs. Yu.

***

Early the next morning, Ah Wu left with Nanny Liu and others.

After they left, the county magistrate did a big thing.

“Remove Yu Fucai’s honor.”

Yu Fucai’s wife stole a young lady from the Marquis’s Mansion. As her husband, he was guilty of improper discipline, so how could he deserve to enjoy fame and honor, even though it was only the fame of a student?

“And the sinner woman, Mrs. Yu, dug her body out of the grave and flogged her 100 times.”

Mrs. Yu had already died, so the Marquis’s Mansion had no way to hold the culprit accountable. However, the county magistrate felt that he could not easily let go of this b*tch who almost caused him to be held accountable by the Marquis’s Mansion.

He was always frightened these days, fearing that the Marquis’s Mansion would vent its anger on him, the local official. He suddenly lost a lot of weight, so he had to vent his anger.

In this way, the county magistrate did something that everyone in the village wanted to do but had never done due to ethical and moral constraints.

The bailiffs who came to execute the punishment were rude.

Because Mrs. Yu and Yu Fucai were in the same coffin, when they dragged Mrs. Yu’s body out, they also dragged out a lot of Yu Fucai’s bones. While for the execution of the punishment to be completed, the group of people did not put back Mrs. Yu’s bones into the coffin.

In this way, eight years after being buried, Mrs. Yu received her belated retribution. Not only was her corpse whipped, but her body was also abandoned in the wilderness.

“You deserve it!”

In the eyes of the ancients, this was the most terrifying punishment, but even so, she did not gain any sympathy from anyone.

What the county magistrate did quickly reached the ears of Nanny Liu and others.

He wanted to express his sincerity, so how could he hide it?

When she first heard the news, Nanny Liu felt a little complicated.

Because she knew that the so-called story that Mrs. Yu stole the daughter of the Marquis’s Mansion was a lie.

Mrs. Yu’s own biological daughter was still living in the Marquis’s family as the respected Sixth Young Lady.

In her opinion, Mrs. Yu had suffered an unprovoked disaster this time.

However, according to the information she gathered, Mrs. Yu had not treated the young lady kindly in the early years. Today, this incident should be regarded as her punishment.

Nanny Liu kept this matter secret and did not tell Ah Wu, as if nothing had happened.
