76 Wang Mingjiang’s Background
Now, everyone looked over.
Li Xiaoran recalled the news she had heard at the city gate and understood something.
“You’re saying that Wang Mingjiang is the eldest son of Minister Wu’s family?”
Luo Han sized up Wang Mingjiang again and said with certainty, “That’s right! He’s the eldest son of Minister Wu’s family. I have the portrait provided by Minister Wu’s family as evidence. There’s no mistake about it!”
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she walked to Wang Mingjiang’s side.
“Sigh, Wang Mingjiang, it’s useless even if you hide behind my father! If you encounter any trouble, you can just say it. I might even be able to help you!”
On the other side, Luo Han pulled Luo Cheng to the side and said in a low voice, “Minister Wu said that his eldest son’s personality changed drastically after his sister passed away and isn’t quite right in the head. How did you bring him home?”
“Isn’t quite right in the head?” When Luo Cheng heard this, he immediately recalled something.
No wonder when they left town on the ox cart, Wang Mingjiang lowered his head and looked very depressed.
So the other party didn’t want to be recognized!
In that case, the couple was actually the ones who had been schemed against?
Luo Cheng pursed his lips at the thought.
Luo Han, who was familiar with Luo Cheng’s personality, knew that he must be angry.
“Hey, don’t be angry. Let’s talk things out! This is the eldest son of Minister Wu’s family. If you really beat him up, how am I going to explain to Minister Wu?!” Luo Han quickly stopped Luo Cheng.
Wang Mingjiang knew that he couldn’t hide it anymore and walked out from behind Li Shun.
“I’m not lying to you. I’m not the eldest son of Minister Wu’s family! My name is Wang Mingjiang. To be precise, I’m Minister Wu’s second son! It’s just that my eldest brother and I were twins when we were born, so I was sent away by Minister Wu as soon as I was born. Now that something has happened to Minister Wu’s eldest son, Minister Wu remembered me, who he had abandoned for more than ten years, and is looking for me!”
These words stunned everyone around him.
Li Xiaoran had seen many such melodramatic plots on television or in novels. However, she didn’t expect to see such a situation after she transmigrated here.
“Because giving birth to twins is an ominous sign?” Li Xiaoran couldn’t help but ask.
“No, because someone prophesied that the twins would be the source of the Wu family’s calamity and had to be eliminated. Therefore, in order to save our lives, they could only secretly send one away!” Wang Mingjiang said, “Actually, in the beginning, Minister Wu didn’t think of finding me. He asked someone to put me in a basket and let me float down the river. My life and death were up to fate!”
Fortunately, Wang Mingjiang was lucky enough to meet his adoptive parents, Wang Xing and Fang Yue.
At that time, Fang Yue was pregnant for ten months and had a difficult labor. The child she gave birth to died before he could take a look at this world.
When Wang Xing secretly went to bury the child, he saw Wang Mingjiang floating over the river.
It was also because of this that Wang Xing felt that Wang Mingjiang was a child bestowed by the heavens, so he brought Wang Mingjiang back and claimed that he was the child of his wife, Fang Yue.
Just like that, Wang Xing named Wang Mingjiang and raised him.
“When I was 15 years old, my father called me over and told my mother about my background. At that time, I realized that I wasn’t my parents’ biological son at all. However, all of this didn’t matter to me because I thought of my adoptive parents as my parents. I will also support my adoptive parents in the future!” Wang Mingjiang recalled.
“Who knew that something unexpected would happen? My originally peaceful days were ruined by the arrival of Minister Wu. Minister Wu wanted me to return, but I didn’t agree. In the end, he threatened my adoptive parents. At that time, something happened to my already married sister. I received the news and wanted to save my sister. Minister Wu got someone to knock me out halfway and brought me back to the Wu family!”
“As for my sister, because I didn’t rush over in time, she was forced to her death by her husband’s family! What’s more hateful is that the other party kept insisting that my sister hung herself. I don’t believe that a tough person like my sister would hang herself. I wanted to investigate this matter, but Minister Wu wouldn’t let me out. In the end, I had no choice but to think of a way to escape!”
“Then why did you want to die when we met you yesterday?” Li Xiaoran suddenly asked.
When Wang Mingjiang heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he immediately looked up.
“How did you know I wanted to die?”
“Don’t worry about how I know. Tell me first, did something happen after you escaped from Minister Wu’s house?” Li Xiaoran continued to ask.
Wang Mingjiang nodded. Then he thought of something and his eyes turned red.
It turned out that after Wang Mingjiang escaped, he disguised himself and slipped out of town before returning to his parents’ place.
However, he didn’t expect to receive bad news when he returned.
The villagers said that when his parents went up the mountain to pick firewood, they unfortunately fell into the cliff.
Because the cliff was so deep that no one dared to go down to search, everyone felt that his parents were doomed.
How could Wang Mingjiang withstand this news? After spitting out a mouthful of blood, he almost fainted.
However, he knew that he couldn’t fall yet, so he held on to his breath and perked up to look for someone under the cliff.
However, he had brought many people down, but the terrain below the cliff was too complicated, and there were many ferocious beasts.
Therefore, this search ended in vain.
Wang Mingjiang was indignant and wanted to continue searching, but no one was willing to accompany him.
He planned to go down and look for them himself. Someone from the village pulled him back and slapped him on the neck. His vision darkened and he fell unconscious.
When Wang Mingjiang woke up again, he was back at Minister Wu’s house.
As he struggled to get up, he heard two people talking outside the window.
One of them said, “Sigh, Eldest Young Master is really pitiful. I heard that the bodies of that old couple have been found, but Master gave a gag order not to let Eldest Young Master know!”
“We definitely can’t let Eldest Young Master know about this! If Eldest Young Master finds out, he will definitely make a fuss. At that time, everything will go out of control! Speaking of which, Eldest Young Master is also a pitiful person!” Another person sighed.
When he heard this, Wang Mingjiang’s mind buzzed. He didn’t even know how he left the Wu family’s home.
“You all know what happened after that. I entered the restaurant in a daze and shattered your jade. After that, I followed you guys back!”
