Wanjin Lady

Chapter 3 Dismissal
The rat demon left, but the matter was not yet settled.

Wen Wan stood at the top of the stone steps and glanced coldly at the people in the hall below.

"I told you... starting today, the Wen family will be closed to visitors. Each room must guard their doors and not let anyone in. Who let in, uncle?"

Everyone in the hall turned their heads and saw the young man with a short beard and coarse cloth at the entrance raising his hand tremblingly, "Miss, the eldest uncle is the elder of the Wen family. He insisted on forcing his way in, and I... couldn't stop him..."

Eyes darting around, movements exaggerated, body leaning back, facial expression stiff—

It's obvious that he is lying.

Wen Wan looked at the man and asked calmly, "Can't you stop him or don't want to stop him?"

The man was shocked, as if he had suffered a great injustice, "What are you talking about, young lady?"

"My father isn't dead yet. Isn't it a bit too hasty to show loyalty to the old Wen family members now?"

The man wanted to argue again, but Wen Wan raised her hand to stop him. "Don't complain. I issued the order to close the house yesterday. Just because you're not doing your job well, there's no reason for you to stay in the Wen Mansion any longer. Madam Liu, pay him this month's wages and tell him to leave immediately."

The man cried out in injustice, but Aunt Liu put her hands on her hips and spat fiercely, "You traitorous bastard, no wonder you knew exactly where the toilet was when the elders of the Wen family came in a few days ago! It seems there's a spy in our nest! If it were me, Liu Yiyi, I would poke seventy or eighty holes in your body, and kill your father and mother as well, and hang them all upside down and drain the blood—"

Everyone in the hall looked at each other.

Everyone kept silent.

No one dared to look up.

Even Wen Wan raised her eyebrows.

Damn.

Why are you stealing her lines?
Her image as a domineering young host...was actually snatched away by someone else?
In the original owner's memory, Concubine Liu was a woman with a hot temper, but Wen Wan never expected... Concubine Liu could be so hot.

Especially her slim waist, perky butt and long legs. Even if she danced Pamela for ten years, she couldn't develop such a curvy and powerful figure.

"No need."

Wen Wan said this and everyone looked over.

"No one in the hall today will be left alive."

Everyone below was shocked and cried out for mercy, but was interrupted by the woman's cold voice.

"My Wen family won't keep servants who remain indifferent when their masters are humiliated."

After dealing with Chen Si, Wen Wan took back the tablets of her grandparents and asked Chen Ma to place them properly before sending them back to the ancestral hall.

However, the elders of the Wen family must have made a lot of efforts for the rat demon to get this tablet.

This group of super-powerful old men are probably counting on the brainless rat spirit to take the lead.

Wen Wan didn't have time to deal with this group of old men. She was anxious to go back and look at her pile of legal documents.

In her previous life, she had the most ordinary life trajectory: she passed the college entrance examination, went to a 985 university, got a job after graduation, worked as a management trainee in a real estate company, and earned an annual salary of over one million before she turned thirty.

Then there was a company physical examination, and he was diagnosed with stage II gastric cancer.

He was then fired by the company.

Go to court and ask for compensation.

The fiancé left after saying "I'm not worthy of you".

Her parents found it hard to accept the reality, so they took her to various top-tier hospitals in major cities, trying to prove that the medical examination report showing her as having "stage II gastric cancer" was a misdiagnosis by the doctor.

What followed was a five-year battle against cancer.

During this period, she underwent surgery, chemotherapy, medication, and hair loss. Her weight dropped sharply from over 100 pounds to 70 or 80 pounds, and finally she was as thin as a skeleton.

Life was like quicksand, flowing out from between her fingers.

Finally, the cancer cells came back and took her life.

She collapsed on New Year's Eve.

A reunion night with thousands of lights on.

Her father, mother, and sister surrounded her bed, holding her hands and crying heart-wrenchingly, their tears wetting her face.

She wanted to wipe their tears.

Unfortunately, she was so weak that she couldn't even open her eyes. She wanted to tell them: she's gone... how wonderful... she won't be a burden to them anymore.

Mom and Dad no longer have to revolve around her.

My sister doesn't have to quit her high-paying job in the big city or even break up with her boyfriend who lives in another city in order to support this broken family.

They would be better off without her gentleness.

Mom, I'm so sorry. She was not good enough and didn't choose a better time to leave.

New Year's Eve, a day for family reunion, became her death anniversary.

From now on, they will never be able to celebrate New Year's Eve again -

Mom... Dad... Sister... On the other side of the world... We will meet again.

Then, it was night.

When she woke up, she turned into Wen Wan from Ping County, Bozhou, Dachen.

The daughter of a winery.

A cup of Bifang wine, a winery, and five taverns support hundreds of Wen family employees.

Wen Wei is about fifty years old next year and has few children. Judging from the fact that he has a wife and two concubines but only two daughters, Father Wen may have some unspeakable problems.

Half a year ago, Old Man Wen caught a severe cold and is now terminally ill.

Debt collectors, debt collectors, and visitors came one after another, and there was also a group of clansmen who were eyeing her and wanted to swallow up her property -

Wen Wan was completely clueless.

On the first day of the time travel, the Wen Mansion was surrounded by the elders of the Wen family and their men. Aunt Liu called on her brothers from her natal family and beat the oldest elder of the Wen family until he cried out in pain.

He almost beat the elder of the clan to death.

These are Chen Ma’s exact words.

On the second day after the time travel, the debt collectors took weapons and smashed a hole in the Wen family's door.

This time, Mr. Tu almost beat the person who forced the Wen family to pay back the money even though he didn't have an IOU.

This is also what Chen Ma said.

In short, whenever someone comes to the door, they will be beaten to death.

This is Chen Ma’s law of shit, piss and fart.

The third day of the journey was the day of adoption.

Wen Wan was halfway through reading the legal documents of the Dachen Dynasty, which included things like "If there is no descendant, the family will be extinct", "If a brother dies, the son will inherit the father's inheritance. If both brothers die, all sons will inherit equally", "If a man has not married, he will be given a separate betrothal gift", etc. Before she could figure out the inheritance relationship of this dynasty, she was interrupted by the rat spirit.

Damn rat spirit!
I really want to pull out the remaining hair on both sides of his head.

Aunt Liu dealt with the matters in the front hall before quickly catching up with Wen Wan.

This girl used to pant slightly after walking every two steps, but today she walked with a majestic and powerful momentum.

"Big girl—"

Wen Wan stopped and waited for Aunt Liu to catch up. "What's the matter, Aunt?"

Aunt Liu's words lingered on her lips. After a moment's deliberation, she finally spoke, "Dismissing so many servants today... I'm afraid it's not appropriate. What if someone accuses you of being cruel and ruthless, and slanders your reputation after you leave—"

well.

Aunt Liu did not question her decision in person, but asked her in private.

He knows when to advance and when to retreat, and knows how to keep his distance. He is a good candidate.

"These people are timid and have ulterior motives. Keeping them around would only bring disaster. Furthermore, our family is in financial difficulty right now. Using this as an excuse to let them leave would also save us some severance pay. As for the rumors... the Wen family already has enough of them."

The female lead is very naive; those who mind this should proceed with caution.

In the early stages, the male lead is almost just a background character, but he will step up and showcase his charm in the second half.

Four thousand words per day. Either one four thousand words in one update, or two four thousand words in two updates. Updates must be completed before 10 PM. No exceptions, even if it's raining knives.
