Chapter 2198: Chapter 2198: Want to Sell Little Song Le
Shu Yu squatted down, looking at Wei Tang, who was half-paralyzed on the ground, with a twitch at the corner of her mouth.
It wasn’t that serious, was it necessary to lie there motionless? As if breathing a little harder could accelerate the onset of the poison.
Wei Tang trembled with fear, “Miss, just hurry and ask.”
You’re quite anxious.
Shu Yu, “What is your true purpose for coming here?”
Wei Tang truly dared not play any tricks, spilling everything like beans, “I really came to fetch Gouwa, but not to take him back for care. I’m out of money and planned to take him away to sell him.”
Aunt Hong’s eyes widened instantly, and she rushed forward to hit him, “You heartless beast, are you even human? Gouwa’s life is so pitiful, without a father or mother since childhood, and has suffered so much, and you want to trick him to sell him. You’re an animal, you have no humanity, why doesn’t the heavens strike you down with lightning, you beast!”
“Ah, ah, ah, don’t hit me, I’m about to be poisoned.” Wei Tang shouted while dodging.
Shu Yu coldly watched Aunt Hong hit him, and only after she vented did she console her to rest aside.
Aunt Hong had already started to cry. If she hadn’t taken Gouwa to the small courtyard south of the city and left him with his uncle years ago, now that Wei Tang came knocking, her son and daughter-in-law would surely give the child to him while she wasn’t paying attention. At that time, Gouwa would be sold, and who knows what kind of misery he’d endure. Just thinking about this made Aunt Hong want to kill Wei Tang.
Luckily, luckily now Gouwa is with his uncle, luckily she made the right choice back then.
Wei Tang could clearly feel the gaze of the two people before him as if looking at a dead person and couldn’t help but shrink back, softly reminding, “I, I’ve said everything I should, and you can’t hit me, or I won’t disclose anything.”
“You dare, if you’re not honest, then just wait for the poison to kill you.” Aunt Hong said with a cold sneer.
Wei Tang felt the burning sensation in his abdomen grow stronger, and he urgently prompted Shu Yu with his eyes, “Do you have any other questions?”
“Is Gouwa’s mother really dead?”
This time Wei Tang remained silent for a moment, under Aunt Hong’s surprised gaze, he shook his head, “Don’t know, maybe she’s dead, maybe not.”
“Explain clearly!”
Wei Tang’s neck shrank, only then did he hurriedly say, “She ran away, went missing.”
Seeing Shu Yu frown, he had to start explaining from the beginning.
Turns out, a few years ago, after Dazhuang passed away, Wei Tang set his sights on his own sister.
Though Ms. Wei wasn’t exceptionally beautiful, she was charming in a homely way. Earlier before marriage, she worked a lot and ate little at home, so it wasn’t apparent.
Later, after she married Song Dazhuang, she gradually gained some flesh.
Though still slender, her looks began to flourish. After giving birth to Gouwa, Aunt Hong took care of her during confinement, and she even appeared somewhat fair-skinned.
Thus, after Song Dazhuang’s death, Wei Tang felt this sister could still bring benefits to the family, so he coaxed their parents to have her marry again.
It just so happened that a wealthy merchant from afar wanted a wife, and had taken a shine to Ms. Wei, making the Wei family incredibly pleased.
Without hesitation, they pulled Ms. Wei out from the Hong family, intending to marry her with that out-of-town merchant.
Previously, when Ms. Wei married Song Dazhuang, they only received a bride price of fifteen taels.
Now meeting a wealthy man, their demands increased. They knew that after the wedding, this merchant would take Ms. Wei away, seeking a life of prosperity forever after, the Wei family demanded to be taken along with the merchant.
