In the past, Yang Wu didn't hate the Su Family. At most, they could be considered as displeasing to the eye.
Take the son of the two in front of him as an example. He considered himself to be his cousin and treated him as a follower. He showed off everywhere, as if he was afraid that others didn't know that he had a cousin who was a viscount. Every time he appeared, he would use him as a shield. There was once when he was beaten up because of him. He didn't have a good impression of his cousin at all, and his aunt was even worse.
In the past, he felt that his aunt was like a nouveau riche. Her words were also rather corny, praising him and his brother as if they belonged in the heavens and not in the mortal world.
However, when something happened to his family, she was the one who spoke the worst behind his back. She couldn't wait to cut Yang Wu a few times to distance herself from him.
Yang Wu clearly remembered that before he was taken to the mountain prison, his face was smashed with rotten eggs. A few of them were thrown by his aunt.
At that time, he happened to see it clearly. How could he treat such a person as a relative?
Yang Wu didn't have a good impression of his uncle, Su Houran. He treated his mother well, but it was more for the sake of benefits. Many times, he would ask his mother for help to rope in business for the Su Family. His father was a noble count, so how could he easily rope in business for others, even if it was his own relatives? This made things difficult for his father many times.
Yang Wu wasn't old, but he had seen everything clearly. He didn't need to think to know why the Su Family had come this time.
Yang Wu looked at Su Houran and asked coldly, "What are you doing here?"
Su Houran said with some embarrassment, "We're here to see your parents and nephew."
"No need. You can go back now." Yang Wu said coldly. Then, he smiled at the others and said, "What are you all doing here?"
Although everyone was afraid of Yang Wu's soldiers, they couldn't wait in vain. They hurriedly stepped forward to speak.
"Count Shaowu, I'm Lu Wei. I've prepared a small gift for you to celebrate your great contribution at the border and your conferment of the title of Count!"
"Count Shaowu, I'm from the Fan family. This is a little gift from us to your Yang family. Please accept it."
"Count Shaowu, my family has long heard of your great name. This is a small gift from us."
…
These people presented their gifts one after another, and the gifts they gave were all carefully selected. There were ancient relics, rare treasures, spirit treasures, and so on. None of them were ordinary goods.
However, these things were nothing in Yang Wu's eyes. The value of any of his spirit medicines was comparable to these things, not to mention the King Medicines he had.
But that didn't mean that Yang Wu would refuse these things. He smiled faintly and said, "Thank you for your care. How could I accept it?"
Although he said this, he waved his hand and had his subordinates collect the gifts one by one.
These people didn't mind Yang Wu's actions. On the contrary, they felt more at ease. Hadn't they waited so long for Yang Wu to accept the gifts and remember them?
Kong Qing had already climbed up and stood next to Su Houran. She didn't dare to show the slightest bit of arrogance and obediently hid behind Su Houran. She was afraid that the soldiers would catch her.
She watched as the soldiers collected the gifts one by one and a greedy light appeared in her eyes. She muttered, "This nephew is incredible. I have to curry favor with him. In the future, my Su family will be able to obtain many good things."
After a while, the soldiers finished collecting all the gifts. The people who had given the gifts didn't stay any longer and bid farewell to Yang Wu one by one. Yang Wu also smiled as he watched them leave.
After everyone left, Yang Wu turned to look at Su Houran and Kong Qing. Finally, his gaze fell on Kong Qing. Kong Qing was frightened and quickly said, "Yang Wu, I … I'm your aunt."
"Yes, I know you're my aunt. When I was sent out of the city a year ago, you threw a total of four eggs at my face, right?" Yang Wu asked Kong Qing.
This time, Kong Qing was scared witless. She quickly waved her hand and said, "I … I didn't do it on purpose."
"You didn't do it on purpose? Then you threw it out of your hand?" Yang Wu asked again.
"Yes, yes, I threw it out of my hand. No … I didn't throw it out. It really wasn't me." Kong Qing's arrogance disappeared and was replaced with an expression that looked like she was about to cry.
She could be arrogant in front of others, but when she saw the murderous soldiers behind Yang Wu, she didn't dare to show her shrewish and bitter temper.
Yang Wu ignored Kong Qing and looked at Su Houran, "You heard it. This is your good wife and my good uncle. Hurry up and scram!"
Yang Wu didn't show any courtesy. He didn't care about these relatives at all.
Su Houran and Kong Qing were so frightened by Yang Wu's shout that they fell to the ground on the spot, their faces pale.
Who dared to go against the Young King's anger?
"Wu 'er, don't be rude." Su Roumei walked out and said.
"Mother, didn't I tell you not to come out?" Yang Wu looked at Su Roumei who had walked out and said with a face full of unwillingness.
"I'm your mother." Su Roumei said with a trace of dignity.
When Yang Wu returned, he had no choice but to walk to the side with a drooping face.
He wasn't afraid of anything, but he was most afraid of his mother getting angry.
He remembered that when he was young, he didn't listen to his mother's advice and didn't go to the river to play. He insisted on doing the opposite and accidentally fell into the river. He almost drowned. After being rescued, his mother, who had always doted on him, spanked him.
Yang Zhennan walked out from the back with a bitter smile. He didn't know how to answer.
"Elder brother, elder sister-in-law, please come in." Su Roumei helped Su Houran and Kong Qing up.
"Aiya, younger sister, I thought you didn't remember me, your sister-in-law. Master often told us that you were the most sentimental. We had no choice but to break off our relationship with you. Aren't we here to beg for forgiveness?" Kong Qing said while crying.
Not a single tear came out of her eyes. It seemed so fake.
Su Houran walked over to Yang Zhennan and said, "Brother-in-law, we've let you down. Father often blamed us. Even if we died, we should've spoken up for you. You were wronged."
"Don't mention the past." Yang Zhennan said calmly.
Su Houran and Kong Qing were welcomed into the residence. Yang Wu didn't want to see the faces of these relatives and hurriedly went back to his room to prepare. He would personally look for his younger brother.
In his heart, his younger brother was as important as his parents. No one could replace their position.
Ever since he was young, his younger brother had grown up with a halo and received countless praises. Countless officials and nobles wanted to arrange a marriage with his family. Even the current emperor had such thoughts. The emperor had once said that the day his younger brother became the top scholar would be the day he married the princess.
Unfortunately, the day his younger brother became the top scholar was the day the Yang Clan was raided. In order to save him and his parents, his younger brother gave up his position as the top scholar, allowing his family to survive.
It could be said that the person Yang Wu felt the most guilty towards was his younger brother.
Now that the matter of Imperial City had been settled, he wasn't in a hurry to refine the "Heaven Reversal Pill" for the time being. It wasn't easy to refine that kind of heavenly medicine. It required a lot of strength to support it, and it also required a more stable state of mind. Right now, he was worried about his younger brother's safety and couldn't calm down.
Before Yang Wu prepared to leave, he called Yang Keren over.
Yang Keren had been staying in the Yang Family all this time, and there was nothing strange about it. Every day, he would serve his parents and continue to be a good servant.
Her beauty was even above Wan Lanxin's. Her beautiful eyes shone brightly, her body was graceful, and her ordinary clothes could not hide her beauty.
"Eldest Young Master, is there something you need me for?" Yang Keren looked at Yang Wu and asked.
"Sister Ke Ren, since we were young, why can't you call us family?" Yang Wu asked.
"Eldest Young Master, I entered the Yang Family when I was young and knew that I was a servant of the Yang Family. Master and Madam treated me very well, as did Eldest Young Master and Second Young Master, but I can't forget myself." Yang Keren replied seriously.
Since she was young, she had been taken in by the Yang Family and became a servant. Not only did she not suffer the slightest grievance, she was also taken care of everywhere. Her heart was one hundred percent loyal to the Yang Family. She, who matured early, recognized her position clearly and did not dare to cross half a step.
Yang Wu could feel Yang Keren's stubbornness, so he did not pester her on this matter. He believed that Yang Keren would not do anything that was detrimental to the Yang Family. He went straight to the point and said, "Sister Ke Ren, you are about to leave. Please hire some servants to serve my parents. In addition, buy some houses around here for me. In the future, my brothers will also have a place to stay."
After he finished speaking, he took out a large amount of gold and silver and placed it in front of Yang Keren.
This caused Yang Keren to be stunned.
These gold and silver treasures were obtained by Yang Wu from the dead people and extorted from the barbarians. This was only a small part of it.
"Eldest Young Master, you can rest assured that I will get things done quickly." Yang Keren replied after a brief moment of absent-mindedness.
"En, I also have something for you." Yang Wu responded and took out some pills and placed them in front of her.
He had already felt that Yang Keren had reached the Intermediate General Realm. But a year ago, she should have been just a warrior. In just a year, if not for the lack of opportunities, how could she have broken through so quickly.
In front of her, he gave her Acupoint Breaking Pills, Healing Pills, and a Profound Congealing Pill, all of which were of extraordinary value.
Yang Keren had already joined a mysterious force, so her knowledge and experience were already extraordinary. But when she saw the gifts Yang Wu gave her, she still felt a little incredulous. She asked, "Are these really for me?"
The most precious thing was the Profound Congealing Pill, which could help people break through to the King Realm. If this news spread out, even a King Realm expert would be tempted.
"If not for you, then who would I give it to, no matter what you think in your heart, I will always treat you as my sister." Yang Wu spoke in a very serious tone.
Then, he stuffed the pills into Yang Keren's hands, turned around and walked out, leading most of the Death Legion to the north.
"Little Brother, Big Brother is coming!"
