Chapter 476 Wei Ruo's Abnormality
Wei Jin also wanted to go to the Lu residence but not as Prince Rui.
Wei Jin also changed his face and changed into the clothes of the guard.
Wei Ruo looked at Wei Jinyi who had turned into Wang Jin, and couldn't help teasing, "It's more pleasing to the eye now that you look like this."
It is much more gratifying than his appearance that he feels that he will fall if the wind blows.
"Yes." Wei Jin also responded.
Wei Ruo smiled and said, "It's still early, why don't you go shopping with me first?"
They don't need to go early in the morning, since the identities of Prince Rui and Princess Rui are there, no one will have any objections if they go later.
"Ruo'er can go wherever she wants." Wei Jin also had no objection.
"Okay, let's go then."
Wei Ruo intends to visit the shops. She wants to buy the two shops next to Daiyueju together and open the Beijing branch of Sibaozhai and the Beijing branch of Xuji Lo-Mei.
The audience of these two shops is the same as Daiyueju, they are all dignitaries in the capital, so there is no problem opening together.
Opening the shops together is also convenient for Wei Ruo's later management. When she wants to inspect, she can go through all the shops at once, instead of traveling to several places separately.
The carriage was driving on Baihu Street, and when passing an alley, I heard the noise of beating and scolding and the crying of children from a nearby family.
The sound was very loud and there was a lot of movement. It sounded like the master of the house was beating the mistress, and the mistress and the children were begging for mercy.
"Stop." Wei Ruo shouted to stop the carriage, and then quickly got out of the carriage.
Seeing that Wei Ruo wanted to go inside, Wei Jin stepped forward and kicked open the dilapidated door.
After entering the courtyard, the woman fell to the ground, holding her eight or nine-year-old daughter in her arms.
The drunk man held up a broom in his hand and hit the woman.
The man's eyes were red, and he didn't realize that someone was breaking in, so he raised his hand high again.
But this time the broom failed to hit the woman again, Wei Jin also raised his hand to hold the broom, preventing the man from moving.
The man turned his head to look at Wei Ruo and the others.
Wei Jin also took off the broom, swung it up and slapped the man on the back fiercely.
"ah!"
The man yelled in pain, which made the man's drunkenness disappear.
The man scolded Wei Jinyi angrily: "Who are you? How dare you come to my house and beat someone? I will sue you for trespassing! You...you come with me to see the official!"
Wei Ruo took the broom from Wei Jinyi's hand, and hit the man hard again.
"Ah—ah—" the man screamed again and again after being beaten by Wei Ruo.
He subconsciously used his hands to resist, and after one hand was hurt, he switched to the other, screaming and jumping, too busy to take care of it.
Finally, the man was afraid of being beaten, and lost the arrogance he had at the beginning.
"Forgive me, spare my life for a hero! Forgive my aunt!"
"You know it hurts too? Don't you feel that when you hit someone, you scream loudly when the stick falls on you!" Wei Ruo looked at the man, his gaze as cold as his voice.
"Grandma, these are my mother-in-law and my daughter. I beat them but not others. What's bothering you?" the man asked back.
"Do you still know that this is your wife and daughter? What did they do wrong to make you fight your closest people?"
"This woman hides the money at home and doesn't give it to me. Why can't I beat her? It's only natural for men to go out to drink and gamble. The woman at home just cares about eating well and taking care of the children. How can we care about our men's business?" The man He replied that he himself did not feel that there was any problem at all.
Hearing this, Wei Ruo stopped talking to the man, raised his hand and hit the man heavily with a few sticks.
The man was beaten and shrank to the ground.
"Ah... dead... dead..." the man wailed, his voice gradually weakened.
Wei Jin also sensed that something was wrong with Wei Ruo, but did not stop it.
At this moment, the woman rushed to Wei Ruo: "Madam, please spare my life!"
Wei Ruo stopped and looked down at the woman: "He is addicted to drinking and gambling and beat you like this, and you still want to plead for him?"
"Although he is a bit bad, but he is my man, if he is gone, I will have no life!" The woman cried.
"Why did you come here? Can't you live without him?" Wei Ruo questioned.
"How can I live without him? There is no one in my natal family, and there is no way to live without him! Madam, please spare him!"
The woman's face was full of tears, and she prostrated herself on the ground, trying to grab Wei Ruo's skirt with both hands but did not dare.
Wei Ruo stared at the woman for a while, and finally chose to stop.
Wei Ruo put down the broom and walked over to the crying little girl sitting by the water tank.
Wei Ruo knelt down and wiped away the tears from the corners of the girl's eyes with a handkerchief.
The girl looked at Wei Ruo with a look of fear, and was too nervous to move.
"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you." Wei Ruo said as he rolled up the girl's yellowed sleeves, and saw the wounds on her arms of different depths.
This is the trace of domestic violence suffered all the year round, Wei Ruo knows it very well.
"I ask you, if I am willing to take you away, give you a place to live, give you food, keep you safe, and prevent you from being beaten again, are you willing to come with me?"
The girl looked at Wei Ruo nervously, and shook her head after a while.
"Why? Are you worried that I'm a bad person?" Wei Ruo asked.
"I...I...I want to be with my parents, I'm not going anywhere..." the girl said timidly.
"But your father often beats you, doesn't he? He is responsible for all your injuries, right?"
"Yes..." The girl's voice was low, and she lowered her head slowly.
"Your father is easy to gamble, he lost all the money in the family, right?"
"yes…"
"Then why do you still want to be with your parents?"
"He is my father, it is my fault that my father hit me." The girl replied.
"You're wrong? What did you do wrong?"
"No... I don't know, but Daddy is Daddy, I should listen to Daddy..."
"Then does he treat you well?" Wei Ruo asked again.
The girl was silent.
"He treats you badly, why don't you choose to leave him?" Wei Ruo asked again.
The girl still shook her head: "He is not good, but he is my father. No girl who has not left the cabinet can live without her parents."
Wei Ruo suddenly lost his temper, let go of the girl's arm, and stood up.
Wei Ruo walked back to Wei Jinyi's side, "Let's go."
After finishing speaking, Wei Ruo walked towards the door.
Wei Jin also followed, Xiumei and others also left the house.
Backing on the carriage, Wei Ruo leaned on the cushion and closed his eyes to recuperate.
Wei Jin also stared at Wei Ruo with concern.
Feeling Wei Jin looking at him, Wei Ruo slowly opened his eyes.
"Are you wondering why I have such a big temper?" Wei Ruo asked.
