C103 robbing the false light (2/2)

”Pfft —” Old Master Wu spat out a mouthful of blood as golden stars appeared in his eyes. That kid really did have no future, even his soul was being hooked away by the witch.

But that was still his only son. The Wu Clan's incense was waiting for him to continue on. If he was beaten to death, how would he be able to face the ancestors of the Wu Clan?

Sigh, there was no other way. There was really no other way. In his previous life, he had committed evil, and that was why he ended up bringing calamity to the residence.

”Old master, are you alright?” The servant girl stepped forward and asked in a low voice. Although she had a worried expression on her face, she was inwardly overjoyed.

”Quick, quickly call the young master over. I have something to say to him.” Wu Da-gui raised his hand weakly, like a rooster without feathers.

After the servant had settled down Master Wu, he went out to look for Wu Xiaofei.

At this moment, Shangguan Wan was settling accounts for Wu Xiaozhu.

”Master, take a look. Even if we only eat vegetarian food every day, the mansion doesn't have enough silver. We can only maintain it for seven days. After that, we'll probably go out and beg for food.” Shangguan Wan purposely said the situation was terrible.

Wu Xiaohu was stunned on the spot, ”Why...” How could this be? ” He, who had always only cared about spending money, had never known the ”importance” of money.

Shangguan Wan sighed, ”Master, the lord was well and healthy in the past, so of course the mansion had an income. But now the lord has fallen, many people took advantage of the fire to rob and add fuel to the fire, which led to the situation today.”

Wu Xiaofei gritted his teeth in anger, ”When did that old fogey get sick? Why did he have to get sick at a time like this? He made the beauties suffer alongside us.” He looked at her guiltily. It was a deep affection.

Shangguan Wan took her hand away from his, and smiled unnaturally, ”I'm fine, I've always had a hard time, so it's normal for me to have to suffer. Besides, with Master accompanying me, what's wrong with me having to suffer like this? It's just been hard on you, grandpa. ”

Imagine, how big of a gap it would be to ask someone who spent money like water to beg in the streets.

Wu Xiaofei lowered his eyes to think before shouting: ”I'll go find that old fart who won't die!” He's been crawling around for so many years, he must have a way! ”

Just as she finished speaking, a servant girl came in and reported, ”Young Master, the Master wishes to see you.”

”Hur hur, you came looking for me yourself.” Wu Xiaofei said as he walked towards his father's yard.

After Wu Xiaofei left, the guard at the side, Jun Yao, finally spoke: ”Empress, why did the Old Master call him over?”

Shangguan Wan stroked her black hair, her eyes brimming with shrewdness. ”If what you said is right, then the big fish behind the old gramps will come out soon.”

When the Wu Residence was rich and prosperous, it had made friends everywhere. Now that it was in ruins, those small powers were just a drop in the bucket, not enough to turn the tides.

Of course, they must have spent a lot of resources to build a relationship with such a powerful force.

”Cut the crap, why are you looking for your son?” Wu Xiaofei was in good health, this meeting was even bigger than the old man.

”You …”

”There's no need to say anything more. Get down to business.” He directly interrupted the old man's words.

He knew that this old fogey would scold him first. With his mouth, he would feel uncomfortable if he did not scold his own son every day.
