Chapter 108

Xu Mo's proposal was supported by the whole family.

Zheng Ruqian nodded solemnly and agreed to help out. "Just at the right time when my workshop has collapsed too, I will ask Zhang Uncle, Aunt Cui'er and my aunt to all go out and help."

Not only did Fang Heng bring Jiang Yi, Jiang Er, Jiang San and Jiang Si, but also took the other four iron-blooded trained servants to suspend their training and come out to find people.

Jiang Sheng was especially careful to wrap up the hawthorn cakes and hide them in her sleeves, thinking that if Brother Fufeng was hungry, she would give them to him to eat.

Wen Zhiyun carried a small medicine box and pulled Chang Yan along, "We are going too."

It could be said that the whole family went into battle.

They drove the carriages and donkey carts, and arrived in the southern suburbs in batches.

The southern suburbs were the suburbs south of Anshui Prefecture. There were six villages in total. Because they were close to Anshui Prefecture, each village had manors built by major families, roughly estimated to be over forty.

It would be a bit difficult to find the Wang Family from them, and then find where Wang Fufeng was.

Because you could not make a big fuss asking around, or even enter through the front door.

At this time, Jiang Sheng's harmless-looking advantage came into play.

The little girl skipped and jumped, eating candy in her mouth. She staggered to the vicinity of the grand manor, and casually pulled a working woman to ask with a smile, "Auntie, where is this place? I'm a little lost."

The woman's heart softened immediately, and she said, "This is the manor of the Fuguo Family on the outskirts of the city. I'm here to deliver meals to the mistress inside. Little girl, where do you want to go?"

Jiang Sheng blinked her eyes, "I want to go to the Wang Family's manor. My sister works there."

"Oh, the Wang Family manor." The woman couldn't help patting her head, "It's not in this village. You have to go ahead. They are all in the front villages, especially Xiaofu Village, there are several Wang Family manors there."

Jiang Sheng smiled brightly, "Thank you, auntie, I'll go now."

She skipped and jumped to the village entrance, and was picked up by her third brother into the carriage in a hidden place.

The group drove towards Xiaofu Village. The Wang Family had a total of three manors in this village, two large and one small, located in the three corners of the village.

Jiang Sheng was already prepared to use the same trick again.

Xu Mo grabbed her arm and whispered, "Go check the small one."

Everyone in the carriage was silent.

Since Third Master Wang could treat his eldest son like this, it showed he didn't cherish and protect him. Based on this mentality, Wang Fufeng could only be in the worst and smallest manor.

Sure enough, when Fang Heng drove the carriage to the smallest Wang Family manor, he found two servants standing at the door, apparently to keep watch.

Although it was called a manor, it was almost the same as a rural house, just with a more majestic door frame and the Wang Family manor plaque on it.

It was highly likely that the weak, resolute young master would be locked in such a place.

Xu Mo's heart sank. Originally, he was still planning to sneak in quietly to check it out, but now, he wanted to knock out the two guards and enter openly.

Fang Heng was well-versed in such matters.

He went forward, chopped and knocked out the guards.

After lining up the two servants behind the door, and gagging their mouths with overnight steamed buns to prevent alarming the Wang Family prematurely, Fang Heng and Xu Mo did not rush in immediately, but turned back to find Wen Zhiyun from the main group.

"Little Four, come with me," Xu Mo said softly. "Wang Fufeng needs you."

Zheng Ruqian stepped forward, "I'm going too."

Jiang Sheng certainly would not fall behind. "I'm going too."

Chang Yan looked left and right, afraid of being left behind, "Then I have to go too."

There were six people already.

Zhang Qiquan was clever and instantly made the decision, "I'll take everyone back. Just leave Jiang Yi and Jiang Er to protect you."

Xu Mo nodded gently. After the main group left, he took his siblings into the Wang manor.

Jiang Yi and Jiang Er changed into the clothes of the two gatekeeper servants, and tied them up neatly in the meantime, stuffing overnight steamed buns in their mouths to prevent alarming the Wang Family prematurely.

Only the six siblings remained, walking heavily towards the master room, and gently pushed open the door.

Wang Fufeng, named after the weak willow propping up the wind.

He was born with a weakness, caused by his mother and aunt fighting jealously with each other and harming one another.

His aunt had a miscarriage, and he was also born prematurely, which angered his father to leave home in a huff for half a year. At first, his mother thought his father was just angry, and tried to gently mend their relationship, but later found out that his father had started another family outside.

And at that time, a baby boy had been born.

Healthy, full term, his father's bloodline.

Even after so many years, Wang Fufeng could still feel his mother's despair, so he could understand why his mother didn't love him, and understood why his mother desperately wanted to give birth to another healthy boy.

Unfortunately, after more than ten years, his mother was never able to conceive again, and the boy outside had gradually grown up too.

The situation in the Wang Family changed again and again. At first it was the eldest uncle in power, and later when the eldest uncle passed away, the eldest uncle's wife controlled everything, and strongly supported her grandson's family.

This move met with unanimous opposition from the second uncle and fourth uncle. They believed that the Wang Family could not let a woman control everything, and wanted to help the unrelated Sun Family, which was clearly an attempt to seize the Wang Family's assets.

Moreover, the eldest branch had no son.

The fourth uncle also didn't, so he wisely chose to avoid getting involved, and only asked for a portion of the Wang Family assets.

Then the only ones who could take over the family were the second or third branch. Originally they should have fought for it, but his father bluntly stated that with Wang Fufeng's poor health, even if he took over the Wang Family it would be useless, so they might as well fully support the second branch.

Yes, he had concealed the healthy boy outside.

Even his mother was somehow persuaded to keep it a secret.

So everyone watched helplessly as the second branch became arrogant, watched his cousin Wang Mingyu become spoiled, and watched the second branch fight with the first branch.

His father was very satisfied with this state.

Until Wang Fufeng made a move and broke this balance.

The Sun Family was in chaos, the first branch was flustered, and the second branch took the opportunity to seize power.

His father was furious, threw a fit, not only beat Wang Fufeng, but also threw him into this southern manor to reflect.

In fact it was to let him die, to make way for that boy in Jiankang.

But what made Wang Fufeng's heart go cold was that his mother did not stop it either. She also knew that such a ruined legitimate son was useless, and she gave up on him with her eyes wide open.

Going hungry in this manor, feeling cold in this manor, dying lonely in this manor.

No light, no wind, no warmth, no smile.

Perhaps just die like this, away from that cold family, in an equally cold manor, slowly stopping breathing.

But before that, he wanted to take one last look at this world.

As if the heavens had heard his heart's voice, the gray cloth covered door was suddenly pushed open, and a slender hand, with boundless light, surged into the gloom.
