Chapter 88: Life Is Greater Than Practice (Part II)
wrote a suicide note in advance, which shows that the white-haired man's wife has long known that such an ending will occur. In that case, why did she make the act of eloping?
The white-haired man's forehead was bruised, and his killing intent was extremely fierce.
"The letter was left to me by her with great difficulty, and she told me that the affair was false, but in fact there were people in the clan who wanted to usurp power and seize the throne, and they were afraid of my might, so they came up with this poisonous plan, fabricated that she had committed adultery with a servant, disturbed my mind, and then took the opportunity to ......."
Wu Bencao shuddered when he heard this, this move was too cunning.
If the white-haired man is deeply loved and desired by the clan, then even if a few people want to usurp power, they will not dare to besiege him in a grand manner, or threaten him with his wife, and this kind of behavior will only be spurned by the clan and will be unpopular.
Therefore, when the enemy found out his weakness, he did not choose to kidnap his wife, leaving room for manoeuvre, but instead of the crime of not abiding by women's morals and fornicating with others, he justifiably put her to death, leaving him with a result of death without proof.
The evil part of this ploy is that it is more offensive than the kidnapping of his wife.
Think about it, a husband who has been running around all the year round, suffering from no time to spend with his wife, is already guilty and cannot make up for it, if he hears a message from his family that his wife has committed adultery with another man, what will he think?
Of course, there is anger, but the white-haired man fails to fulfill his husband's obligations, which makes his wife disheartened, empathizes, and he himself has an unshirkable responsibility, and he will definitely regret and blame himself in his heart, and it is difficult to face such a reality.
Cutting constantly, tidying up and messing up, all kinds of tastes are in my heart, which will make the white-haired people lose all their thoughts and lose themselves, and the intention of the gang will be achieved. Without their hands, the white-haired man will also be sluggish, passive and decadent, and no longer have the heart to take charge of the family.
Just like he is now.
"When I saw her letter, I was furious and went to the men to take revenge, but they succeeded in deceiving the trust of my wife on the charge of adultery. When I made a move, the people condemned me for losing my mind, for being mad for a woman, and for not being worthy to be the head of the house anymore......"
Wu Bencao sighed and said with emotion: "They have a careful layout, they want you to betray your relatives, and if you make a move against your own people, won't you be in the hands of the other party? ”
In his previous life, he often read online novels, and almost every fantasy fairy tale work would write that the protagonist left the family and went to a larger world, often for thousands of years and tens of thousands of years, without any news, and the wives and elders in the family were loyal and guarded the protagonist's return.
If this kind of thing really happens, how can it always remain beautiful as in the book? Some people want to replace it, and some people want to change the court, this is common sense.
It is not easy for a white-haired wife to stick to love and leave a letter to tell the truth. In fact, even if she did commit adultery with another man, was it all her fault? If he never came back, why couldn't she empathize and change her mind? Who wouldn't want to marry Xingfu?
Couples can't stand the test, let alone those subordinates.
The white-haired man wiped away his tears and said gloomily: "During the fierce battle, they said a lot of heart-wrenching words, although I saw through their intentions, but in all fairness, they were right, no matter whether my wife has red apricots out of the wall, all these years, I am sorry for her......"
Wu Bencao glanced at his right shoulder, "So, when you were fighting, you were in a big mess, facing the siege of those clansmen, and when you lost your mind, you were cut off your right arm, leaving these scars?"
The white-haired man did not refute, "I was in a very painful mood at that time, and I wanted to be a martyr for my beloved wife who died, and I wanted to go to the Yellow Spring to be her companion, but I did not want to kill those people who were deceived and used, so I fled with my wounds and came to you. ”
The vast majority of the people did not know that under the instigation of a small number of usurpers, they really thought that the former head of the family was in a state of madness because of love, so they drew a knife against their own people, and they knew that there was a vicious conspiracy behind it.
Wu Bencao nodded and asked, "Have you taken revenge?"
The white-haired man's eyes were cold, "Needless to say, even if I risk my life, I will kill those jackals! After taking revenge, it is no longer my home, I have broken off with them, and if I meet them again in the future, it will be a stranger." ”
Wu Bencao didn't really care about this, and the reason why he asked was originally to remind the white-haired people that since there was still revenge to be avenged, then hurry back to the lair and don't stay in this small goose city. But the white-haired man replied like this, and it was not good for him to push the boat down the river and give the order to evict the passengers.
He frowned slightly and asked, "Then what are your plans next?"
The white-haired man looked down at the still steaming soup bowl and said, "Thank you for your guidance last night and let me understand the meaning of this bowl of fish soup." You're right, I can't repay what I owe my wife, and only by living well can I live up to her wishes. ”
Wu Bencao snorted and didn't speak again.
He was thoughtful, and faintly thought of another sinister possibility.
If the white-haired man's wife lied and left a lie to deceive him, and in fact the minority did not plot to usurp power and died unjustly at his hands, then wouldn't his wife be even more vicious, wanting to take revenge on him, and causing him to fall into such a state of betrayal and separation!
The human heart is unpredictable, and this possibility is completely there. But for Wu Materia Medica, the most important thing is to be kind and encourage white-haired people to face life bravely, even if this possibility is true, there is no need to say it.
The white-haired man said sadly: "Over the years, I have been dedicated to pursuing realm cultivation, ignoring my beloved wife, and missing too much fish soup full of warmth. In order to make up for my previous mistakes, I decided that from now on, I will drink fish soup every day......"
Wu Bencao was stunned, and suddenly had a very bad premonition.
Although there was no Murphy in the other world, Murphy's theorem came into effect, and what Wu Bencao was worried about happened immediately the next moment.
Sure enough, the white-haired man looked up at him and said, "Your stew skills are superb, and among the chefs I have seen in my life, you can rank in the top three." I want to let go of the past and start a new life, and staying with you is the best choice. ”
After this life and death encounter, he realized that he had a completely different view of life. He is tired of the fights and killings, grievances and fights on the rivers and lakes, and he doesn't want to get involved anymore.
Life is greater than cultivation, and now he just wants to wash his hands in a golden basin, stay away from the rivers and lakes, hide in a small restaurant, and try to enjoy the ordinary and ordinary life. He wants to fulfill his deceased wife's wish and cherish every day that follows.
And Wu Bencao is here to help him have an epiphany and complete his transformation overnight, why should he go far and go outside?
The white-haired man grinned and patted Wu Bencao's shoulder, "Little boss, let me be your shopkeeper, I'm very capable!"
