As Wen Bao was unwilling to go into the prison to see his mother, Master Mu left his son in front of the door. He placed a handful of copper coins in front of the prison guards and led Wen Juan away.

The Madam Xu was thinner and dirtier. Although the cells would occasionally give the prisoners a bath, the winter water was too cold and some of the prisoners would rather not wash because they were afraid of the cold. This was the case for the Madam Xu.

How could she have known that every winter, Xiaowan would wash her hair with cold water. She did not fall sick, but that child was lucky.

”His father …” Madam Xu shouted and her tears fell like rain. However, she only saw the man and her daughter come and anxiously asked, ”Where's Wen Bao? Why hasn't he come?

Wen Juan said: ”Mother, he's outside, he's not willing to come in.”

Madam Xu was very disappointed, but her eyes suddenly popped out again, and she scolded Master Mu: ”What if you throw him out and get kidnapped by someone?”

”Someone is watching, don't let your imagination run wild.” Master Mu took out the food he was eating and said coldly, ”With that silly brat of yours, who would be interested in him?”

”So what if she is? You don't like him anymore, he's the only son of your Old Mu family?” Madam Xu stayed in the prison for so long, but she still did not reduce the hostility and viciousness on her body. ”If you dare to mistreat my son, even as a ghost, I will not let you go. I will definitely go out sooner or later, and you guys will owe me your Old Mu family, so I will definitely repay you.”

”What nonsense are you talking in front of your child?” The Master Mu sighed, ”I knew it, I shouldn't have come to see you.”

The Madam Xu was furious, ”Why am I spouting nonsense? Do you wish for me to die so you can get another woman?”

The guard heard the noise and came over to scold: ”What are you shouting for? Do you believe that I won't beat you to death? ”

Madam Xu was so scared that her whole body was trembling, she did not dare to say a single word.

After entering the prison, except for the fact that he had never been tortured by these guards, he had been beaten up to the point that his skin and flesh were torn apart. He could even do all the work that he could to the point where he could not straighten his back. During the summer bath, the other prisoners had stolen her clothes, forcing her to run naked out of the house. However, the guards had made things difficult for her and had not given her clothes for a whole day.

In comparison, Aunt Wang's days were much better than hers, because the Wang family would occasionally send gifts to the prison to beg the guards to accommodate them, but on the Madam Xu's side, she never thought that they would do such a thing.

After the jailer left, Wen Juan said timidly to his mother, ”Mother, please eat something. It will become cold in a moment.”

Madam Xu woke up from her stupor and directly used her hands to stuff everything into her mouth. As sshe ate, he cried and asked Master Mu, ”Did you bring any money?”

Master Mu said he had some broken silver on him, so he cried: ”You give them some, and when you go home and get some, didn't I already tell you where I hid the silver? ”His father, save me! They mistreat me everyday!”

”Just you wait.” Master Mu sighed, then took out the money from his pocket and counted it out, politely looking for a few jailers. On this side, Wen Juan passed the soup to her mother, telling her to give her some food so that she wouldn't choke on it.

”Mom, I've always wanted to see you.” Wen Juan cried. She rubbed her mother's hands that were covered with cold sores and asked, ”Mother, when will you be able to go home?”

The Madam Xu was not moved at all. Instead, she asked, ”How is Wen Bao, has he grown taller? Has your father fed him meat? When Wen Bao was being naughty, was your father able to beat him up?”

Wen Juan's heart sank, but she still replied his mother one by one. Abruptly, his mother asked her, ”How is Mu Xiaowan now?”

”I don't know. I've never seen big sister before.” Wen Juan said.

Wen Juan fearfully covered her face as she looked at his mother. Madam Xu suppressed her voice and scolded angrily, ”That's your sister, I climbed both of you out from my stomach, where did you get this sister from?”

Wen Juan moaned and cried. Madam Xu raised her hand to hit her again, saying that his daughter wanted to provoke the prison guards to trample on her, but fortunately, she was back. Seeing that her daughter was pitiful, she decided to not stay anymore.

”Juan'er, Juan'er …” ”You came to visit mother again, my daughter …” The Madam Xu was only slightly more awake now, but the prison door was closed. Her daughter hid in her father's embrace and left without looking back.

”Be more honest, or you'll be even more handsome!” The jailer took the Master Mu's money but was still as fierce as ever. He kicked the food they brought with him onto the ground.
