Chapter 153 Seeing flowers in the mist
"Two roads, which one do you choose?"
The woman's voice was a little hurried, and impatience was faintly revealed between her brows.
She gently stroked her hair that was messed up by the breeze, with a hint of anxiety in her eyes.
"Don't waste my time. I have to rush to town. There are patients waiting for treatment there. Every moment of delay may mean life or death."
Her tone was full of cherishment for time. In her opinion, those precious times should be used to heal wounds and save lives, rather than wasting them on trivial choices.
At this time, Wu Xu, who was standing aside, spoke slowly with a sincere look on his face, and his voice was filled with determination that could not be ignored: "Dad, why don't you let me stay. I know that my family is not rich, but I promise that I will not eat too much, and the monthly medical expenses will only cost one or two taels of silver. If my leg can be healed, I will go all out and become an excellent escort, and repay your kindness of raising me with double the effort."
These words sounded like a well-considered show of consideration for the family, but in fact, they put a heavy choice before Wu Younian.
Although adding a set of bowls and chopsticks may seem simple, in a family with limited financial resources, an extra one or two taels of silver every month is not easy to come by. Moreover, the recovery of Wu Xu's leg is still unknown. If there is little hope, wouldn't the money be wasted?
He Feng, who was standing by, saw this scene and made up his mind. He quietly pulled Wu Younian over and whispered to discuss with him.
"Brother-in-law, after all, Wu Xu is just a burden. Ran He's family is well-off and can support him, and outsiders will not accuse us of being heartless. Even if we really split up in the future and cut off contact, it is because Ran He has no blood relationship with us, and my sister is not very close to her. As for Wu Xu, after all, we raised him with our own hands and have a deep relationship. You can talk to him privately and ask him to secretly help Ran He save some money. When the amount is sufficient, he can quietly support our Wu family. Isn't it the best of both worlds?"
These words, like a ray of light, shone into Wu Younian's heart, as if opening a door that he had never noticed.
Yes, this is indeed a viable approach.
He Feng's plan made Wu Younian suddenly realize and his mind suddenly became bright.
Wu Xu has a kind personality, unlike Ran He who is so cold. As long as Wu's mother confides her troubles to him a few more times, Wu Xu will definitely soften his heart.
The decision was made and their tone became gentler. Ran He didn't care about these private conspiracies. As long as the result met her expectations, the process was not important to her.
"Okay, I promise you, I will let Wu Xu go, and you will take care of him from now on."
Wu Younian made the decision readily.
Wu Xu's expression became complicated when he heard this. He was both helpless and unwilling. He managed to squeeze out a sentence: "Dad, are you really going to separate from me? I know that I am unable to contribute to the family and have become a burden to the family. Since you have made your decision, I will not disobey. I just hope that we can part ways in peace in the future. I wish you two good health."
His words were rapid and firm, leaving almost no room for Wu Younian to interrupt. Even when Wu Younian gave him a pleading look, he just pretended not to see it, which made the scene extremely awkward.
Soon, the documents for the division of the family were prepared quickly. With the experience from the previous time, Ran He was efficient in handling the matter and completed the documents in one go without any hesitation.
She handed the document to Wu Xu and said calmly, "If you agree, please sign or stamp it here. Of course, you can regret it as long as your family agrees. I have no intention of forcing you."
There was a barely perceptible coldness in Ran He's tone. Now that she had a carefree life, a husband with limited mobility was not necessary for her.
These words pierced Wu Xu's heart like a needle, and for an instant, he felt unprecedentedly lonely.
Since he founded the Tianji Pavilion, he had never suffered such obvious dislike and alienation.
His expression froze slightly, then he regained his composure. He calmly signed his name on the document and handed it to Wu Younian.
Wu Younian held the pen and hesitated for a moment. Under He Feng's urging gaze, he finally made up his mind and signed his name with trembling hands.
Everything was settled, and the document was made in two copies, one was given to Ran He and the other was kept by the Wu family.
"I will send this separation agreement to the government for notarization. This way, no one can regret or deny it."
Ran He always does things in a rigorous and meticulous manner, ensuring that no links are missed and that no one has any handle.
Wu Younian felt mixed emotions and wanted to say something, but after a glance at He Feng's eyes, he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue and turned to Wu Xu, pretending to cry sadly: "Son, it's not that daddy is cruel enough to break off relations with you, it's just that your wife won't give in. Remember, no matter what, you are daddy's son, and daddy will still find opportunities to secretly visit you in the future."
Wu Xu's eyes seemed to be filled with relief like autumn water. Facing Wu Younian's slightly artificial concern, he just lightly outlined a faint smile without any ripples.
"Father, please don't worry too much. Now that the family tree has been divided, the two houses are going their own way. If outsiders knew about it, I'm afraid there would be a lot of criticism."
These words, like fine needles, pierced into Wu Younian's heart, leaving him stunned.
He had never expected that Wu Xu, who used to be obedient under the family's majesty and full of attachment to the Gu family, would suddenly change his attitude after the signing of the separation agreement, as if he had become a different person overnight.
An indescribable worry quietly rose in Wu Younian's heart, like a thin mist.
He quickly calculated in his mind, wondering whether he could use Wu Xu as a link to pry open a gap to obtain wealth from Ran He, but the feasibility of this plan was like a candle flame swaying in the wind, and even he himself could not be sure.
"Everyone, do you still need to drink a cup of tea before you are willing to leave?"
Seeing that they were hesitant, Ran He finally couldn't hold back any longer, and with three parts of impatience and seven parts of determination in his words, he ordered them to leave.
Wu Younian was so ashamed that he had to pull Xie Di and others with him, and hurriedly left while smiling awkwardly, secretly thinking of a countermeasure in his mind.
In his understanding, Wu Xu was just heartbroken, heartbroken by the contract that severed his blood ties, and time is often the best medicine to heal all wounds. Perhaps with time, the shackles in his heart will be unlocked.
As the last guest disappeared, Ran He lowered his head and stared at Wu Xu with deep and complex eyes.
She had met countless people, but she always felt that there was a mysterious fog shrouding Wu Xu.
Over the years, he has been wandering around the world, claiming that he is a well-traveled bodyguard, but no one knows his specific whereabouts or what he is doing. Everything is like a fog.
