Chapter 687 The Wicked Would Be Opposed by the Wicked
As the family master of the Chu family, Chu Shanhe instantly took note of the core information given by Chu Mingdao. Even a group of ordinary people, who were injured could be trained by Qin Haodong to be masters above the Supreme Power Realm.
If he could enter the Chu family, with the resources of the Chu family and his medical skills, there would be a large number of masters above the Supreme Power Realm. It was only a matter of time before they could dominate the capital.
After understanding this, he said to Jin Xiuying, “You don’t have to worry about this. Xuanyue and her son must come back to the family.”
Seeing that Chu Shanhe, who had always been obedient, did not take her opinion seriously, Jin Xiuying said angrily, “No, I said no! As long as I am alive, you can’t let that b.a.s.t.a.r.d enter the doors of the Chu family.”
Seeing that Jin Xiuying was hindering Qin Haodong’s return to the Chu family, the others immediately glared at her. However, they dared not say anything because Jin Xiuying had always been a dominant force.
“Shut up. When were you in charge of the Chu family’s affairs?”
It was Chu Shanchuan who spoke up. If there was still a person in the Chu family who could make Jin Xiuying afraid, it would be Chu Shanchuan and Chu Shenhai, two level nine supreme power masters.
In terms of status, Chu Shanchuan was not only the First Elder of the Chu family, but also the eldest son of the direct descendants, the elder brother of Chu Shanhe. If he had not been obsessed with practicing martial arts all the time, Chu Shanhe would not have the chance to be the head of the family.
In terms of cultivation, Chu Shanchuan was a level nine supreme power master. If he wanted to fight with Jin Xiuying, no one dared to stop him. Even if someone wanted to stop him, he could not.
Usually, Chu Shanchuan did not like Jin Xiuying’s arrogance, but he had been busy practicing and could not be bothered about these things.
But today was different. Qin Haodong’s return was a matter of success or failure to the Chu family, as well as a life and death issue. It was also a matter of whether he could break through the current bottleneck and become a Saint.
How could such an important thing be destroyed by this woman?
When she heard Chu Shanchuan speak, Jin Xiuying’s arrogance was suddenly restrained. She said in embarra.s.sment, “Big brother, you misunderstood me. I just can’t stand the style of that b.a.s.t.a.r.d…”
“If you don’t like him, you can leave the family.” Chu Shanchuan said coldly, “I don’t care if you are arrogant to others in your daily life, but if you dare to disrupt this big event for the Chu family this time, then get out of the Chu family!”
“Yes, I understand, big brother!”
Jin Xiuying grew up in a big family, so she naturally knew about the struggles in the family. She knew what kind of person she should offend and what kind of person she should not offend. If she really angered Chu Shanchuan, she was afraid that he would kill her. Even Chu Shanhe would not be able to stop him.
Moreover, her parents’ home had steadily declined through the years and the Jin family was no longer what it was before. Therefore, although her eyes were full of resentment, she could only swallow her anger.
Seeing that this wicked woman was finally backing down, Chu Shanhe breathed a sigh of relief and said, “It’s settled. I’ll go and invite Xuanyue and her son back personally.”
Chu Xuanming said, “Father, why don’t I go with you? I can try to persuade my sister when we get there.”
Chu Shanhe nodded and said, “Well, you can come with me. Xuanli, you come along too. Xuanyue has a good relations.h.i.+p with you since she was a child.”
Chu Xuanli said, “Father, in terms of feelings, my sister has the best relations.h.i.+p with Uncle Weng. I think it’s most suitable to bring him with us.”
Chu Shanhe thought for a moment and said, “Well, go and tell Uncle Weng now. Ask him to stay and continue to be our Chu family’s housekeeper, then he can come with us to invite Xuanyue back.”
Uncle Weng had been expelled from the Chu family because of Qin Haodong. Now, in order to invite Chu Xuanyue back, Chu Shanhe asked him to stay.
Jin Xiuying widened her eyes and looked at Chu Shanchuan seated next to her. In the end, she held back her words. The wicked would be hara.s.sed by the wicked. Chu Shanchuan was his greatest nemesis.
Uncle Weng was packing all his stuff and had yet to leave.
Finally, Chu Shanhe, Chu Xuanli and Uncle Weng got in the car and rushed to the Tang Sect.
Qin Haodong had just eluded Qin Zhanlong and the others when he saw Zhang Tieniu running in again. “Boss, the master of the Chu family, Chu Shanhe, is here. He wants to see you and Old Madame.”
Chu Shanhe’s visit was within Qin Haodong’s expectation. He knew that the Chu family would not give up so easily, so he turned and looked at his mother. It was better for Chu Xuanyue to make a decision.
Chu Xuanyue frowned and asked, “How many people are there?”
“There are four people, including Chu Xuanli who just left,. The master of the Chu family also brought two people. One is your brother, Chu Xuanming and the other is an old man called Uncle Weng.”
“What? Uncle Weng is here?”
Chu Xuanyue was in a dilemma. She didn’t know if she should see Chu Shanhe, but when she heard that Uncle Weng was here, she did not hesitate at all. She said to Zhang Tieniu, “Hurry and invite them in.”
Uncle Weng was a bachelor. He had never had a wife or a child, so he treated Chu Xuanyue like his own daughter since she was a child. His love for her was far more than that of Chu Shanhe and Jin Xiuying. Similarly, Chu Xuanyue’s feelings for him were also very deep.
It did not take long for Zhang Tieniu to walk into the living room with Chu Shanhe and the other three. When she saw the white-haired Uncle Weng, Chu Xuanyue immediately went up to him and said excitedly, “Uncle Weng, you’re here. Sit down quickly. I’ve missed you so much over the years.”
When he saw Chu Xuanyue, Uncle Weng was also extremely excited. In the large Chu family, only this girl and Chu Xuanli in front of him, truly cared for him.
“Miss, how are you doing?”
Uncle Weng said excitedly.
“I am fine.”
Chu Xuanyue nodded repeatedly.
Seeing that his daughter and the housekeeper were closer to each other than him, Chu Shanhe could not help frowning slightly, but he did not say anything. No matter who Chu Xuanyue liked, as long as she agreed to return to the Chu family with him, it would be the biggest success.
Uncle Weng turned to Chu Shanhe and said, “Master, can I talk to her alone?”
“Sure!”
Chu Shanhe nodded. On the way here, he had promised Uncle Weng that as long as he could persuade Chu Xuanyue to come back to the Chu family, he would not only stay as the housekeeper, but also would be given a great reward.
Chu Xuanyue knew what Uncle Weng was going to say to her in private, so she took him to the room next door. Uncle Weng said, “First Miss, this must be the young master. Can you bring him with you?”
“Of course.” Although she did not understand what Uncle Weng meant, Chu Xuanyue still asked Qin Haodong to go with them.
When they reached the next room and closed the door, Chu Xuanyue took Uncle Weng’s hand and said, “Uncle Weng, why haven’t you come to see me all these years?”
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Uncle Weng falling to his knees and saying to her and Qin Haodong, with tears in his eyes, “I am so sorry!”
Chu Xuanyue quickly helped him up and said, “Uncle Weng, what are you doing?”
Uncle Weng had guilt written all over his face and said, “These words have been suppressed in my heart for more than 20 years. Today, I must tell you, I was the one who stole the young master from you.”
“What? What did you say?”
Chu Xuanyue was shocked. Back then, she had left the room for a short while and when she came back, her son was gone.
Although she knew that it was the Chu family’s doing, she did not know who had done it. She did not expect it to be Uncle Weng, who had always doted on her.
Qin Haodong also frowned, but it was only appropriate for his mother to deal with this matter, so he did not say anything.
Uncle Weng continued, “Madame looked for me and she asked me to steal the young master and kill him. At first, I didn’t want to do it. You were so kind to me; how could I do that?”
“But later, I thought about it. If I didn’t do it, Madame would definitely find someone else. In that case, there would be no hope for the young master to live.”
“So I agreed, then secretly took the young master away and I then handed him to a relative to take him far away to Jiangnan City and find a good family to adopt him.”
“I did not dare to say anything about this. Later, I told the family master and Madame that I have already killed the young master. Originally, I wanted to keep this secret for the rest of my life, but I did not expect that the young master would return so openly to the capital today.”
“There is no need to hide my deed any longer. Otherwise, I will not feel at ease even if I am in the coffin. I came here today just to beg for your forgiveness.”
Qin Haodong’s expression eased a lot when he heard that.
In this way, not only was Uncle Weng not his enemy, but he was also his benefactor. If he had not taken him away and secretly found someone to keep him, he would have been killed by the Chu family.
Although Chu Xuanyue was shocked, she also thought of the key point. She took Uncle Weng’s hand and said, “Uncle Weng, it’s not your fault. On the contrary, we have to thank you for saving Haodong’s life. If it were not for you, we would not have been reunited today.”
“I don’t dare to take credit for this. Due to this matter, I have not been able to eat and sleep well all these years and I feel so sorry for you.”
“Today, I feel much better. Originally, I was going to leave the Chu family, but when I heard that they were going to visit you, I came along with the family master.”
“No matter if you want to beat me or scold me, or even kill me, I have no complaints at all.”
Chu Xuanyue said in surprise, “Uncle Weng, you have been in the Chu family for a lifetime. Where are you going?”
Uncle Weng sighed and said, “I was driven out of the Chu family by Madam today, but you don’t have to worry. I still have some savings all these years. I’m really tired and I’m not in good health. It’s good to find a place to retire.”
Chu Xuanyue frowned and asked, “Why did she drive you away?”
Uncle Weng said, “Miss, it doesn’t matter. You don’t have to ask.”
Qin Haodong immediately understood and said, “Is it because I didn’t die that the Chu family vented their anger on you?”
Chu Xuanyue asked with a gloomy face, “Uncle Weng, is that true?”
Seeing that Qin Haodong had already guessed the reason, Uncle Weng could only nod his head as a tacit admission.
Chu Xuanyue said angrily, “They have really gone too far. I’ll go and sort it out with them now.”
Uncle Weng hurriedly said, “Miss, please don’t. I don’t want this to affect your relations.h.i.+p with your father because of this.”
“And to be honest, I have had enough of living in a place like the Chu family, who are devoid of human feelings. In addition, my health has not been good these years. I often feel so much pain that I can’t get up. I really don’t want to go on like this anymore.”
Qin Haodong said, “Uncle Weng, Tang Sect has just been established. I’m in need of a capable housekeeper. Why don’t you come and work here? How much salary are they paying you? I’ll pay you five times more.”
Chu Xuanyue immediately said, “Yes, Uncle Weng. Please come over to our side.”
“Miss, although I also want to stay with you, to be honest, my body is really not strong anymore. I can’t do anything here and I will only be a burden to you.”
“After telling you everything, I don’t have any more burdens. Later, I will leave the capital and find a beautiful place to live for my retirement.”
Qin Haodong said, “Uncle Weng, you can’t go. You can stay in our Tang Sect.”
“Your health condition is just a minor problem. I’ll help you with it. You’ll soon be full of vigor and it won’t be a problem for you to find a wife.”
After saying that, he reached out and ma.s.saged Uncle Weng’s waist. After two cracking sounds, Uncle Weng’s bent back instantly straightened and he became much more energetic.
