Chapter 78 - A sickly cousin in the care of others (4)
As soon as Huo Wei arrived, she canceled the engagement, asked for compensation, and packed up the maids who bullied her original host. Naturally, she didn’t want to stay any longer. She was sad, desperate, and thought a lot in a short time, and she was very tired. So she pretended to be weak, touched her forehead, and said apologetically, “leader, I’m not feeling well. Can I go back first?”
They had wanted her to go back a long time ago. Mo Zhipeng knew that there were still disputes to be dealt with in the Lius, so he was afraid that Huo Wei would have another thing to do, so he quickly ordered someone to bring a sedan chair and send her back.
She didn’t stop hear their mind until they were five hundred meters away from her. She couldn’t let her guard down. When she just got along with them for a short time, she had thought of many ways and methods to kill her from their point of view.
The leader and his wife could find a way to kill these people at the most appropriate time, in case she would be in trouble and embarrass the Mos; Mo Ziyue didn’t lie to her and marry her. Maybe he would force her to hand over the secret and even kill her to vent his anger when she couldn’t hand it over; Ziqian and Liu Rongrong could protect their reputation after she died of illness; The main branch of the Lius could kill her to protect her daughter’s reputation; The second branch of the Lius could kill her and ruin Liu Rongrong’s reputation.
It could be said that these people had enough reasons to kill her, but she was powerless and had no way to defend or attack. In the world of Wulin, it was ridiculous to be reasonable. Force is everything. Huo Wei had no advantage at all.
No, it couldn’t be said that she had no advantage. She still had a huge advantage in a short time, which was that no one knew that she had changed. Today, she put her insistence on hating betrayal, so even if she was different today, their impression of her was still like a weak and easily bullied girl. So she could do something unexpected.
After Huo Wei went back to her room, she closed the door and windows and told the servants not to disturb her.
As soon as Lvluo and Hongrui were beaten to death, the servants in her yard were all silent. They didn’t dare to offend her at all. Of course, they would do whatever she said. She just broke off the engagement sadly, so it was normal for her to hide and cry.
After closing the door and windows, Huo Wei began to sort out the important items of the original host. When the two maids were cleaned up, Mo Zhipeng’s men also searched their residence and found that some jewelry and cheques were “taken” from Huo Wei, so they sent them back to Huo Wei.
Huo Wei roughly calculated that the same jewelry was worth about one hundred taels, and the cheques were more than five hundred. They were all exchanged for the original host’s jewelry. Huo Wei put away the cheques. This was what she could rely on after she went out. It was more convenient than jewelry. Looking at this alone, she didn’t know if she should thank them for helping her.
Her clothes were of good quality. After all, they were worn in public. The Mos couldn’t let others “see” that they were not good to her. But this was the most useless. She was just a weak woman dressed as a lady! If she went out alone, she would be robbed, wouldn’t she?
After searching for a long time, the original host had nothing but these. As the only daughter of the former leader, this was too miserable.
But there was one more thing, which was the Esoterica of the Huos.
Huo Wei didn’t take it immediately. Instead, she walked to the window and touched the leaves of the potted plants. She stood there with a sad look and began to listen to the hearts of the flowers, trees, and birds nearby.
【It’s so quiet today. All the humans are still in the room.】
【Why is nobody here? Want to have fun. 】
【Did they take a nap? I want to sleep too. 】
Huo Wei’s skill range was only within five hundred meters. It was not small or large, but it was enough to know the surrounding situation. She knew that no one was watching her around, so she quickly walked to the wardrobe and went straight in.
There was an unnoticeable bulge in the corner above the wardrobe. It was a piece of paper in the same color as the wardrobe that the original host had attached to it. There were Esoterica in it. Huo Wei cut the paper with a knife and took out a thin book, on which there were four big words — “Yuyang Swordsmanship”.
This set of swordsmanship was the famous unique skill of Huo Feng. He only taught it to his only disciple, who was killed by Mo Zhipeng because of betrayal. No one in the Wulin knew how to use Yuyang Swordsmanship. Back then, the original host was only ten years old, but she still looked sick and didn’t know kung fu. No one had ever thought she would know this swordsmanship. No one knew that Huo Feng had given her the swordsmanship on her ten-year-old birthday. He had told her to keep it well and give it to her child when she grew up.
No one knew about it, but unfortunately, the original host was simple-minded. Not long ago, when Mo Ziyuan mentioned the Yuyang Swordsmanship was lost, her expression was noticed by him, and he suspected that she knew the content of the swordsmanship. Later, he found an opportunity to talk about it in private. How could the original host be a match for him? She was trapped when she didn’t notice at all. And Mo Ziyue became the only person who knew that she had the Esoterica.
Fortunately, Mo Ziyue helped her hide it. He just wanted to be alone, so she was not guessed by the others of the Mos. But what would happen if she with Mo Ziyue without getting the swordsmanship?
Ziyue couldn’t let her go since he had caught her. Or, the more Ziyue couldn’t get the secret manual, the more he spread the news. Then she would be guilty of treason, and countless people in the world would come to grab the “treasure”.
Sitting at the table, she held the book and thought for a while. Then an idea came to her mind.
She kept an eye on the outside while carefully reading the contents of the book. Thanks to being an empress in ancient times, she had read a lot of books and strange things. It was not difficult to understand the secret Esoterica, and she quickly learned this swordsmanship. Unfortunately, her body was unable to practice, and she was afraid that she would not be able to hold the sword for a quarter of an hour.
However, she didn’t want to practice it. She just wanted to keep the content in her mind, which was the safest place. After that, Huo Wei burned all the books and made up a new one with paper and pen.
She used a method in the previous TV series to change many operation routes in the fake esoterica, and then removed some key dos, and made some tricks on the diagrams. For example, the route was one time and she drew one and a half, which was different from the original one, but she was sure to succeed in the operation.
She didn’t dare to change too much. They all knew kung fu, and she didn’t know much. If she changed it randomly, it was likely to be fake at first glance. But that was enough. If others could practice good Kung Fu by this fake book, she could only be said to be a genius in making up esoterica.
After she finished writing the fake esoterica, she spent a lot of effort to make it old. She hid it back to the original position in the wardrobe and glued the paper.
After that, she was very tired. She asked a maid to make some medicine for her and then went to bed. She tied the poison avoiding pearl around her neck again, which was exceptionally reassuring.
The parlor was still in a mess. After esoterica left, Mrs. Li still held Liu Rongrong’s hand and balmed to her. She said that Liu Rongrong was not qualified to inherit the inheritance of the Lius because of her bad personal virtue. The inheritance of the Lius was a medical book written by Doctor Liu. There was only one copy, and none of them would copy it. They said that whoever passed it on to was passed on to him, so they fought for it.
Liu Yunfei didn’t want the Mos to laugh at him. He wanted to go back to his temporary residence first. However, Liu Yunhe didn’t agree. He must ask Mo Zhipeng, the leader of the Wulin, to speak for him. For a moment, Mo Zhipeng became the most embarrassed one, and it was not appropriate to speak for anyone.
Moreover, Mrs. Li whispered, “If Rongrong marries the Mos in the future, she will get the inheritance of the Lius. Will she still be the inheritance of the Lius in the future? I’m afraid she has to change his surname to Mo. “
(Note: Some sentences are missing from the original text.)
Hearing this, Ziqian gave his brother a grateful look. Liu Rongrong breathed a sigh of relief. They all thought that Ziyue was helping them. Although Rongrong couldn’t be famous, the second branch of Lius wouldn’t give up. It was nothing if she didn’t get famous in the Wulin Dahui. She could go out and make a name for herself.
Although the second branch of Lius was not satisfied with what they heard, they also knew that the main branch of Lius couldn’t give the inheritance to Rongrong easily, so they could accept it when they saw that the matter of her fame was ruined. A few years later, they would have a big chance to get the inheritance. If Rongrong married into the Mos, they would have a bigger chance.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
So after hearing what he said, everyone was reluctantly satisfied, thinking that this was the best solution at present. They didn’t know that he just wanted to suppress Rongrong, making Rongrong unable to get the inheritance for a few years, and missing this good opportunity to be famous, which indirectly suppressed the development of the Lius. Liu Rongrong and the Lius would be the support of Ziqian in the future, so he certainly wouldn’t let them develop well. If it weren’t for his fear of exposing his purpose, he would rather the second branch of Lius could not get the inheritance.
However, no one noticed his thoughts. Even Mo Zhipeng was satisfied with his help, so he was even more dissatisfied with Ziqian, who could not solve the problem. He thought that his youngest son would only cause trouble if he had no ability. After the meeting ended in the hall, he called Ziqian to the study to scold him.
Liu Yulian had to comfort the Lius and take good care of them. When she finally had time to go back to her room and have a rest, she was exhausted, especially the anger in her heart was nowhere to vent. She asked what Huo Wei was doing. When she got the reply that she had fallen asleep instead of crying silently, she was even angrier.
Before that, when Mo Zhenpeng went back to his room at night, he was dissatisfied with her. He thought that she was too ungrateful. How could she send two maids to bully Huo Wei? She was really narrow-minded. Liu Yulian had been married toMo Zhipeng for so many years, but he had never said that to her. There was nothing to defend herself. She just didn’t like Huo Wei to be her daughter-in-law, so she deliberately asked someone to teach her a lesson? She knew how to make a weak and lonely girl sad. That was exactly what she wanted.
She looked at Mo Zhipeng who had fallen asleep with a frown. She really didn’t sleep all night, and she just felt that her anger was blocked and unable to be relieved.
The main branch of Lius couldn’t fall asleep, either. The planned inheritance and reputation were all ruined. Liu Yunfei angrily taught Liu Rongrong a lesson. Mrs.Lin protected her from beating or scolding her and complained that Rongrong was too reckless to break off the engagement. The more Rongrong heard, the more annoyed she became. She ran out directly and met Ziqian, who was wandering outside waiting for her. The two of them went to the peach forest together.
On the contrary, Ziqian was very happy. Of course, he was happy. He got rid of the engagement he didn’t like and went through the bright road with the girl he liked. Now that the parents of both sides had known that they were not forbidden to be together, they would naturally accept them in the future. But he was not stupid. He didn’t show his happiness when he saw that Rongrong was unhappy.
Rongrong replied in a low voice. Even if Ziqian would try his best to help her, she was still unhappy. How could it be the same? This time, she came here to treat some people as the distinguished guest of the leader of Wulin before the Wulin Dahui, and then make a glorious appearance at the Wulin Dahuic, which could directly raise her reputation.
If she went out on her own, even if others showed respect to them, they were kind enough not to ask her for treatment. What could she do? It would take her several times to achieve the same result, and it was all because of her!
The most important thing was the poison avoiding pearl, which had a special meaning to her and was the thing she valued most. How could she tolerate it being snatched away by Huo Wei? She couldn’t help saying to Ziqian, “Ziqian, the poison avoiding pearl Miss Huo took is very important to me. Do you… Do you have any way to get it back for me?”
“What?” Ziqian was a little surprised. In his opinion, it was really easy to give a poison avoiding pearl to Huo Wei. After all, he had to lost his brother before. So this kind of mentality of taking advantage made him very reluctant to take back the poison avoiding pearl. He said awkwardly, “At that time, my father, your father, and your uncle were present, which could be regarded as a witness. If we did anything else, it would be inappropriate. And you only need this compensation. If we break our word, it will do harm to your reputation. “
However, Ziqian didn’t seem to think it was enough. He took out the jade pendants from his bag with a smile and handed one of them to Rongrong as if he was presenting a treasure. “Rongrong, this is my ancestral jade pendant. It should have been passed on to the eldest son, but… Anyway, it was passed on to me at that time. I really like this pair of jade pendants. Take this, I hope we can be together for a long time in the future. “
Looking at the jade pendant, Rongrong wished she could tear it into pieces!
She twitched her mouth stiffly, but she couldn’t hold on any longer. Suddenly, she turned around and said, “No, I don’t want it. It’s something that someone else returned to you. I don’t want it.”
“No, this belongs to Mos, not Huo Wei.” Ziqian was anxious and couldn’t understand. Although Huo Wei had taken the jade pendant for some time, the essence of the jade pendant represented the daughter-in-law of the Mos. He didn’t have the ability as his elder brother, but he had got the jade pendant from his ancestors. He cherished it very much.
In the next few days, there was no happy feeling in Mos. Only Huo Wei was happy because she deliberately met Mrs. Li and Liu Zhen, and then showed uncomfortably, let Mrs. Li ask Liu Zhen to treat her.
Huo Wei smiled and said, “The younger brother of the Lius is so young and has such good medical skills. I’m sure he won’t be famous long ago. There will be so many people coming to the Wulin Dahui in a few days. I’m sure they will appreciate him. “
Mrs.Li was pleased by her words. She discussed with Liu Yunhe to make Liu Zhen famous when they got back. But they had to do it secretly and secretly. She didn’t want the main branch to be damaged by them. When Rongrong made contributions for herself, people would definitely have a favorable impression on Liu Zhen, especially when he was a boy.
Mrs. Li had a good impression of Huo Wei. She thought it was right to insist on coming here. Moreover, Huo Wei was too weak to be aggressive, so it was easy to pity her. So she asked Liu Yunhe and Rongrong to treat her and prescribe some medicine for her to improve her health. She said that she still felt that the Lius was sorry for her and insisted on making Rongrong guilty.
Although being the leader of the Wulin was rich, it also cost a lot. The main reason was that Liu Yulian never took Huo Wei seriously. She just felt that it was a waste of so much money on her. When Huo Wei heard her thinkings, she refrained from laughing and asked for more delicious and expensive fruits. She said that taking medicine would ruin her appetite and she needed to eat something delicious. She also asked for a few pieces of good cloth and said that she wanted to thank the second branch of the Lius and couldn’t let treat her free.
Liu Yulian wanted to have a good relationship with the Lius. After that, her mother’s family was no longer a branch of the Lius, but the main branch. Not only did she have a good reputation, but Mo Zhipeng would also pay more attention to her. Of course, she would not let Lius treat Huo Wei free. But she felt uncomfortable when Huo Wei came to ask for it.
Huo Wei knew that the Mo couple wouldn’t kill her for the time being, so she provoked Liu Yulian every two or three days. This woman had been bullying her for such a long time. Wasn’t it just making her feel uncomfortable to take small revenge now?
She had been discharged from the yard more times, so she had more chances to meet with Mo Ziyue.
The two of them were not familiar with each other. When he met her two times before, he showed a guilty look, as if he was a good brother who worried about his brother and felt sorry for her. A considerate look appeared on Huo Wei’s face. She persuaded him not to take that matter to heart, told him, after all, it was not his fault, and praised him as a good brother.
Later, when Ziyue met her again, the bad man shot a stone secret and hit on her shoes, causing her to lose balance and almost fall down. Then he immediately flew over by using Qinggong to catch her and said worriedly, “Cousin! Are you all right? Why are you so careless? “
“Thank you, Cousin. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have fallen so hard,” Huo Wei said in a trembling voice.
After saying that, she took a step back and stood up by herself. She looked at Ziyue with clear eyes and said, “If my cousin were my brother, that would be best. I have dreamed of having such a brother.”
“Isn’t that the way you turn from cousin to brother-in-law? What’s the difference? They have not related by blood anyway. It sounds that they are more related. “
“That’s right. After all, we are not related by blood. Otherwise, you and Ziqian wouldn’t have engaged before.” Ziyue still tried to change the subject of their marriage.
Huo Wei stopped smiling and said in a low voice, “It shouldn’t have happened.”She lowered her head and was about to leave. “Cousin, I want to be alone for a while. I’m leaving now.”
“Wait,” seeing that she was not happy, Ziyue thought it was the right time and comforted her, “Cousin, I said that you have something on your mind, but you never say it. It’s not good for your health to always be alone. Since you want to have a brother like me, why don’t you tell me what’s on your mind? I’ve been crazy about you for a few years, and I can persuade you. Or I can tell you something interesting in the world of Wulin. Do you want to hear it? “
“Okay.”Ziyue smiled, like a brother who loved his sister very much. He was not threatening at all and was very gentle. He was thinking that he had found a way to close the distance. If he had a breakthrough, he could take advantage of it.
Huo Wei was also happy. She just wanted to know more about the Wulin. If she was sleepy, Ziyue would send a pillow to her. This little hypocrite was also useful. For her, he was much more useful than the previous main character, Ziqian, and she could have more contact with him.
As time went by, she would be able to give the fake esoterica away. Oh, no, she can’t give it to him. She should let him get nothing in return. At that time, his expression must be very interesting.

He said awkwardly, “At that time, my father, your father, and your uncle were present, which could be regarded as a witness. If we did anything else, it would be inappropriate. And you only need this compensation. If we break our word, it will do harm to your reputation. “
However, Ziqian didn’t seem to think it was enough. He took out the jade pendants from his bag with a smile and handed one of them to Rongrong as if he was presenting a treasure. “Rongrong, this is my ancestral jade pendant. It should have been passed on to the eldest son, but… Anyway, it was passed on to me at that time. I really like this pair of jade pendants. Take this, I hope we can be together for a long time in the future. “
Looking at the jade pendant, Rongrong wished she could tear it into pieces!
She twitched her mouth stiffly, but she couldn’t hold on any longer. Suddenly, she turned around and said, “No, I don’t want it. It’s something that someone else returned to you. I don’t want it.”
“No, this belongs to Mos, not Huo Wei.” Ziqian was anxious and couldn’t understand. Although Huo Wei had taken the jade pendant for some time, the essence of the jade pendant represented the daughter-in-law of the Mos. He didn’t have the ability as his elder brother, but he had got the jade pendant from his ancestors. He cherished it very much.
In the next few days, there was no happy feeling in Mos. Only Huo Wei was happy because she deliberately met Mrs. Li and Liu Zhen, and then showed uncomfortably, let Mrs. Li ask Liu Zhen to treat her.
Huo Wei smiled and said, “The younger brother of the Lius is so young and has such good medical skills. I’m sure he won’t be famous long ago. There will be so many people coming to the Wulin Dahui in a few days. I’m sure they will appreciate him. “
Mrs.Li was pleased by her words. She discussed with Liu Yunhe to make Liu Zhen famous when they got back. But they had to do it secretly and secretly. She didn’t want the main branch to be damaged by them. When Rongrong made contributions for herself, people would definitely have a favorable impression on Liu Zhen, especially when he was a boy.
Mrs. Li had a good impression of Huo Wei. She thought it was right to insist on coming here. Moreover, Huo Wei was too weak to be aggressive, so it was easy to pity her. So she asked Liu Yunhe and Rongrong to treat her and prescribe some medicine for her to improve her health. She said that she still felt that the Lius was sorry for her and insisted on making Rongrong guilty.
Although being the leader of the Wulin was rich, it also cost a lot. The main reason was that Liu Yulian never took Huo Wei seriously. She just felt that it was a waste of so much money on her. When Huo Wei heard her thinkings, she refrained from laughing and asked for more delicious and expensive fruits. She said that taking medicine would ruin her appetite and she needed to eat something delicious. She also asked for a few pieces of good cloth and said that she wanted to thank the second branch of the Lius and couldn’t let treat her free.
Liu Yulian wanted to have a good relationship with the Lius. After that, her mother’s family was no longer a branch of the Lius, but the main branch. Not only did she have a good reputation, but Mo Zhipeng would also pay more attention to her. Of course, she would not let Lius treat Huo Wei free. But she felt uncomfortable when Huo Wei came to ask for it.
Huo Wei knew that the Mo couple wouldn’t kill her for the time being, so she provoked Liu Yulian every two or three days. This woman had been bullying her for such a long time. Wasn’t it just making her feel uncomfortable to take small revenge now?
She had been discharged from the yard more times, so she had more chances to meet with Mo Ziyue.
The two of them were not familiar with each other. When he met her two times before, he showed a guilty look, as if he was a good brother who worried about his brother and felt sorry for her. A considerate look appeared on Huo Wei’s face. She persuaded him not to take that matter to heart, told him, after all, it was not his fault, and praised him as a good brother.
Later, when Ziyue met her again, the bad man shot a stone secret and hit on her shoes, causing her to lose balance and almost fall down. Then he immediately flew over by using Qinggong to catch her and said worriedly, “Cousin! Are you all right? Why are you so careless? “
“Thank you, Cousin. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have fallen so hard,” Huo Wei said in a trembling voice.
After saying that, she took a step back and stood up by herself. She looked at Ziyue with clear eyes and said, “If my cousin were my brother, that would be best. I have dreamed of having such a brother.”
“Isn’t that the way you turn from cousin to brother-in-law? What’s the difference? They have not related by blood anyway. It sounds that they are more related. “
“That’s right. After all, we are not related by blood. Otherwise, you and Ziqian wouldn’t have engaged before.” Ziyue still tried to change the subject of their marriage.
Huo Wei stopped smiling and said in a low voice, “It shouldn’t have happened.”She lowered her head and was about to leave. “Cousin, I want to be alone for a while. I’m leaving now.”
“Wait,” seeing that she was not happy, Ziyue thought it was the right time and comforted her, “Cousin, I said that you have something on your mind, but you never say it. It’s not good for your health to always be alone. Since you want to have a brother like me, why don’t you tell me what’s on your mind? I’ve been crazy about you for a few years, and I can persuade you. Or I can tell you something interesting in the world of Wulin. Do you want to hear it? “
“Okay.”Ziyue smiled, like a brother who loved his sister very much. He was not threatening at all and was very gentle. He was thinking that he had found a way to close the distance. If he had a breakthrough, he could take advantage of it.
Huo Wei was also happy. She just wanted to know more about the Wulin. If she was sleepy, Ziyue would send a pillow to her. This little hypocrite was also useful. For her, he was much more useful than the previous main character, Ziqian, and she could have more contact with him.
As time went by, she would be able to give the fake esoterica away. Oh, no, she can’t give it to him. She should let him get nothing in return. At that time, his expression must be very interesting.
