Chapter 279: The Scourge of Great Wealth

"Miss, I made some thin porridge, you pad your stomach first, you haven't eaten or drunk this day, be careful of being hungry."

The girl in the pink skirt whispered to Ripples, apparently one of the little girl's maids.

"I'm not hungry, my heart is uncomfortably tight."

Ripple lowered his eyes and whispered, sniffling.

"Miss, I know you're sad, but the old man has been sick for a long time, you should."

"I know, but I'm still sad"

Ripple wiped his eyes after speaking.

"Hey!" The girl sighed, and no longer persuaded the young lady to eat porridge, but instead persuaded the young lady to rest:

"I'll burn the paper for Miss for a while, and Miss will go to the side hall to squint for a while!"

"I'd better stay here with my father!"

Ripple shook her head slightly, showing the little girl's stubbornness.

"Miss, if you don't rest, go wash your face, your eyes are swollen like walnuts, and you have to see guests tomorrow! I've already made the water for you. ”

The girl said softly.

Eventually, Ripple nodded and accepted the other party's suggestion.

The girl seemed to know that Ripple couldn't stand up on her knees for a long time, so she reached out and helped the person up, she was a head taller than Ripple, so she helped it very easily, and after sending Ripple into the side hall, she also brought the porridge in and put it on the table, and did not persuade her to eat, but just soaked the handkerchief and handed it to Ripple's hand, and hurriedly returned to the mourning hall.

Ripple wiped his little face unhurriedly, and then turned around and sat down, as if he was tired of leaning on the back of the chair to rest, in fact, he had already begun to receive the memory of the original owner.

The original owner is the only descendant of Wu Dacai, the richest man in Jiangnan, after his wife gave birth to the original, he almost bleed and did not survive, or because Wu Dacai was rich and rich, he saved his wife with a three-hundred-year-old ginseng.

Wu Dacai's wife Li was born in a big family, just because the family was in the middle of the road, in order to maintain the dignity of the family, she had no choice but to marry businessman Wu Dacai, which was equivalent to being sold by the family.

The Li family has long been cold to the family, but fortunately, Wu Dacai loves her, although the other party is a businessman, but he also has a little literary talent, the two are considered to be married first and then loved, respect each other like guests, and live a good life, if it is not for the mother's family who occasionally comes to the door to fight the autumn breeze, life will be better.

Because of this birth, the Li family injured her body and could not get pregnant again, so the Li family found the Li family and wanted her sister to marry into the Wu family as a concubine, so that she could give birth to a son as soon as possible, so that the Wu family would not have no successor.

This disgusting person's proposal made the Li family completely tear their faces with the Li family, and she turned her head to find Wu Dacai to cry, and said that she was willing to give up the position of his wife, not delay him to have a son, and asked to reconcile with him and take away her daughter.

Wu Dacai was naturally unwilling, so he persuaded the Li family, in fact, he was also a little tired of the Li family's insatiable greed, eating so ugly, and not having the bearing of a family at all, this incident also made him sure that his wife was on his side, and he was not willing to help his mother's family calculate him.

Wu Dacai can be a big businessman, and he is not a brainless person, he immediately made a decision, lied that his wife was seriously ill after giving birth, invited many famous doctors to see a doctor, and finally came to the conclusion that it is best to recuperate in a place with a pleasant climate.

With these foreshadowing, Wu Dacai directly ended his business in the north, and of course pretended to give a few stores that seemed to be full of customers, but actually began to decline, directly to his own family, saying that he would take his beloved wife to Jiangnan to recuperate.

The Li family got the benefits, and the other party was for his own daughter, so he naturally had no position to stop him, so he could only watch Wu Dacai leave the capital and settle in Jiangnan, where the climate is pleasant.

It's just that Wu Youcai, who went to the south, excused himself for not doing well, and was squeezed out by businessmen in Jiangnan when he first came here, so the festival gifts were not as good as a year, and when the Li family sent someone to the south to return the gift, he found that Wu Youcai's family only lived in a small two-entry courtyard, and the layout of the home was also quite shabby.

The Li family didn't believe that Wu Youcai's family property would lose so quickly, so they urged him to return to the capital, Wu Youcai was indeed talented, he said that he would get up where he fell, but unfortunately he never got up again.

In fact, when he got his daughter Wu Lianyi and knew that his wife could no longer have children, Wu Youcai began to plan for his daughter, if he waited for a hundred years later, his daughter inherited all his family wealth, then the Li family would definitely be like a shark smelling blood, rushing up and devouring his daughter.

So when his daughter finished the first birthday banquet and the Li family was ready to stuff him with another daughter as a concubine, he had already begun to plan.

When he arrived in Jiangnan, Wu Youcai told his wife Li his plan, and the Li family also agreed very much, she didn't want her daughter to become a stepping stone for the Li family in the future, and she still took the family wealth earned by her husband.

The husband and wife teamed up to deceive the Li family, and after a few years of stable life, Wu Youcai only had a rice store and a rental shop on his face, and the money he earned could only be regarded as a small fortune, and he was low-key and not noticeable.

In fact, in private, his money is used to invest in dividends, and he invests in the name of different people, which is considered an invisible rich man in Jiangnan.

After all, the Li family was injured, and the mother's family was not worried, after a period of comfortable days, he passed away when the original body was nine years old, and the death of his wife made Wu Youcai also sad, the Li family seemed to smell something, and sent someone to attend the funeral, so they said that they would take the original body to live in the capital for a period of time.

Wu Youcai burst into tears, pulling the old servant of the Li family and crying:

"Uncle Yue, this is trying to rip out my heart! Wanwan is leaving, ripples are my only consolation at this time, you take her away, how can I live?

I know that you are worried that Wanwan is gone, and I will marry someone else, which is not good for Ripples, and I Wu Youcai swear that I will guard my daughter for the rest of my life, and I will never marry another, nor will I let people bully my daughter. ”

After a few words, the steward was blocked, and the Li family was annoyed and a little unwilling at the same time, but three years later, Wu Youcai really did not remarry, and only relied on his daughter for his life, and the Li family secretly scolded the bad luck, which diverted attention.

But at that time, Wu Youcai was sick, because he missed his deceased wife, and his health was not good, so he lingered on the sickbed, and let his subordinates deal with business matters.

The subordinates were not as cautious as Wu Youcai, and they showed their feet when doing things, and then some rumors also spread, including rumors that Wu Youcai was really rich.

At that time, Wu Youcai was already terminally ill, and it was too late to stop the rumors, so he began to arrange a way back for his daughter little by little, and he had to protect his daughter no matter what.

After receiving the news, the Li family in the capital immediately arranged for someone to go on the road and rushed to the Wu family in the south of the Yangtze River, as long as Wu Lianyi was pinched, the rumored large fortune was in the Li family's bag.

It's a pity that they were a step late after all, and on the afternoon of the day they arrived, Wu Dacai took his last breath, and the time when the ripples entered was the original body keeping a vigil on the night of his father's death.

For the sake of the Wu family's great wealth, under the leadership of their own young master, they pretended to be bandits, and rushed into the Wu family in the middle of the night, preparing to kill people and rob money, but unfortunately they were almost killed, but they did not find gold and silver treasures from the Wu family, and only five thousand taels of silver tickets were found inside and out.

See you tomorrow! Feng Ling's allergies have recurred!
