Chapter 2201: Chapter

When the wealthy merchant finished dealing with the child’s aftermath and having reprimanded his two concubines, he finally thought of Ms. Wei.

After all, it was Ms. Wei who ‘brought’ him the child, and now that the child had suddenly had an accident, the merchant suspected if something went wrong with Ms. Wei.

He rarely set foot in the courtyard where Ms. Wei lived; previously, when he talked to her, he also summoned Ms. Wei to him.

This time, he found it rare to visit that small courtyard and it was his first time seeing its condition.

Who would have known that in a magnificent mansion, there would be such a poor house with a leaking roof, without even a bed frame? The whole courtyard was empty, besides a thin blanket and a few clothes, there was hardly anything valuable to be seen.

The only splash of color was the small vegetables planted in the courtyard.

Only then did the merchant realize that the two old women serving Ms. Wei had already taken away the items from the courtyard to sell. As for the bed frame in the house, it had been chopped up and burned to keep warm during a cold winter.

The merchant was furious, he indeed did not see Ms. Wei as important, but the arrangements had a purpose. Without enough food and warmth, it was no wonder something happened to his son.

What fueled his anger even more was the fact that Ms. Wei was missing!!

After summoning the two old women serving Ms. Wei for questions, he discovered that they had neglected their duties and hadn’t reported to this courtyard for three days.

So, they didn’t even know when Ms. Wei had gone missing or how she disappeared.

The merchant almost spat a mouthful of blood, sending people immediately for her search.

The first place searched was the Wei family, but the Wei family themselves were still confused and turned pale upon hearing Ms. Wei had escaped.

The merchant then began to search the entire city for her, but unfortunately, even after searching for half a year, she remained unfound.

Following that, in the latter half of last year, the merchant’s household suddenly began experiencing consecutive mishaps, poor business, mismanagement, selling off assets, leading to gradual decline.

The merchant increasingly felt that his household had become this way directly because of Ms. Wei’s disappearance.

He dealt with the two negligent old women and began to seek Ms. Wei even more urgently.

Unfortunately, the merchant was no longer capable, his funds dwindled, and naturally, his search became increasingly ineffective.

Not only that, but the merchant could no longer suppress the Wei family.

Only then did the Wei family find the opportunity to escape back to the Capital.

“That’s how it is, I’ve said everything that needs to be said. We’re very miserable too, you know. Before leaving the Capital, we sold the house, and after returning, we had no place to stay and no money. My Mother passed away on the road. It’s only then that I foolishly thought to rely on Gouwa.”

Aunt Hong was taken aback, “Your Mother passed away?”

“Yes.” Wei Tang said softly, “We walked back to the Capital, it took several months. My Mother was already not feeling well, nearly having a stroke in anger. Then she got sick on the road and passed away.”

Aunt Hong thought about what she should say? She wanted to say it was deserved.

If they hadn’t been so greedy and insisted on leaving the Capital, they wouldn’t have ended up in such a situation.

“So you really don’t know where Gouwa’s Mother is now?”

Wei Tang raised his head, “We really don’t know, if I did, I would have long…” found her to get some benefits.

He dared not say the latter part, looking towards Shu Yu, “Miss, I’ve explained everything, please give me the antidote quickly. It’s almost been an hour, if you don’t give it to me now, I’ll die, and the authorities won’t let you off, right?”
