The Abandoned Wife’s Rebirth - Chap 37

“Great-Grandfather.” Wu Ruo cut in before Wu Qianqing could say anything: “It’s true that we don’t have enough materials to make weapons, because we not only have to make them for mydage, we also need to make them for me, my dad, my mum and even my younger sister, Wu Xi.”

Wu Qiantong suppressed his fury and said: “You and your dad and the rest don’t have to go for internships, why would you need weapons?”

“Xiaoshu, you are aware of my body’s condition.” Wu Ruo closed his eyes, and said sadly: “Since now I’m living with the Hei family and it’s not like living with our Wu family with people to look out for me, if I don’t have a few good weapons to protect myself, I’ll be in a difficult and unfavourable position. They all bully me for not having spiritual energy, and I’m not very mobile either. They don’t see me as a master at all. All I get is plain tea and simple food, and I don’t even get enough to eat. If I want to go the bathroom, I have to yell for half a day before anyone comes into the room to serve me. And…”

The ‘they’ he was speaking of was referring to Wu Da and Wu Xiao, and not referring to anyone else. As for how Wu Qiantong and the rest wanted to think, that was up to them.

“I know,Xiao-Ruo, you’ve suffered.” Wu Bofang cut off his words, not allowing him to continue speaking, because if Wu Ruo was having a hard time, it was like a slap to his face.

This marriage was set by him, yet it resulted in his great-grandson’s greatest suffering, living worse off than a beast. If word about this matter got out, there would definitely be a lot of people who thought that he, Wu Bofang, was cold and ruthless. In order to gain the favour of Wu Chenzi, he was even willing to ignore his great-grandson’s plight. In the future, how would his other descendants truly respect him?

Wu Bofang looked at Wu Qianqing and said sternly: “Wu Ruo’s weapons must be prepared as soon as possible.”

Wu Qianqing hurriedly replied: “I understand.”

Wu Qiantong wasn’t content with that: “Thensangeandsansao, andXiao-Xi shouldn’t need to prepare any more weapons, right?”

“Xiaoshu, how could you say that?” Wu Ruo looked at him: “Mydageis currently still at home, he can temporarily still look after the people in Shuqing Garden. Once mydageleaves, then there won’t be anyone to look after my dad, mum, and younger sister. You know that my daddy offended many people in the past. Now, there are surely many people who would want to take the opportunity with his cultivation maimed for revenge. If he doesn’t have a few weapons to protect him, how could he withstand any opponent? Moreover, he still has to protect his powerless wife.”

Wu Qiantong hmphed coldly: “Who would sneak into our Wu estate to assassinate him?”

“My dad can’t possibly not go out for the rest of his life, right? Besides, my dad is the Southern main estate’s third master, if he doesn’t even have a decent weapon, if people find out, wouldn’t it be a laughingstock?”

Wu Bofang was most concerned about reputation, when he heard that people from the Wu family might be laughed at by others, he immediately nodded and agreed: “Hn, Qianqing and his wife are the Southern main estate’s third master and third mistress, they cannot be without weapons.”

Wu Qiantong said, again: “ThenXiao-Xi…”

Wu Bofang’s tone darkened: “Do it all.”

Since everyone else had weapons, how could the little girl not have some of her own?

What’s more, if it wasn’t for Wu Qiantong and the rest taking Wu Qianqing’s weapons, would Wu Qianqing and his family be in such dire straits to need materials to make weapons?

Wu Ruo didn’t give Wu Qiantong and the rest any chance to speak, immediately smiling as he thanked Wu Qiantong and the rest: “Thank you, Great-Grandfather. Thank youshushuandbobofor the materials. Whendagecomes back from his internship, we will definitely return these materials to you.”

Oh-ho,dagewould only come back from his internship after a few years, all of you can patiently wait. Even if he comes back, we won’t return the materials to you anyway.

The expressions on Wu Qianjing and the rest couldn’t be any darker, but they couldn’t express their dissatisfaction in front of their grandfather. The idea came from them, and they also unanimously agreed to it, could they back out now?

Of course not.

After Wu Bofang instructed Wu Qianjing and the rest to give the materials to Wu Ruo’s family as soon as possible, and also gave instructions on a few other matters, then he let them leave.
