Chapter 183: The House is Ruined

Chapter 183

This incident happened years ago, which was why [Wang's Mother] was anxious to have [Wang Caixiang] take some money from the An family to cover it up. She was afraid that her other sons would find out about this matter. It would definitely cause trouble if that happened.

What happened to the second son being caught by someone was very similar to [An Zhiren]'s situation of being caught at home that day. This made them have no choice but to suspect that it was [An Zhiren]'s revenge.

Of course, since [An Zhiren] dared to do this, he naturally had made preparations and was not afraid that they would know it was him.

In fact, he was even worried that they would not know. Otherwise, this revenge would be meaningless.

He still had a series of plans waiting for them afterwards. The reason why he had endured and not made any moves these past few days was also out of consideration that his younger sister had come back to spend a rare New Year holiday. He did not want the family to look too unsightly during these days.

On the day when [Pei Jing] and Zhi Xia left, [An Zhiren] had someone notify [Wang Second Brother] about the matter of his money being used up. [Wang]'s family became very lively that day. Although [An Zhiren] did not witness it with his own eyes, he still heard a lot from others.

It was said that after [Wang Second Brother] broke his leg, his other brothers dragged him out and beat him violently again. Even now, he was still expelled from home and had no place to stay.

After that, the youngest son of the Wang family became addicted to gambling. The eldest son stole goods from the factory where he worked by being instigated by someone else. [Wang's Father] became ill from anger that day.

By coincidence, the doctor who treated [Wang's Father] was precisely [An ZhiXian].

Ever since his younger sister had given him that medical book, [An ZhiXian] had been particularly interested in acupuncture and medicine preparation. Having someone deliver it to his door to practice on was precisely what he had been wishing for.

Of course, [An ZhiXian] was not stupid enough to get himself involved due to taking revenge for his Second Brother. That would make people suspicious. So it was on the fourth day after his acupuncture treatment that [Wang's Father] was paralyzed in bed and completely became a waste person.

Because of this, the two brothers even had a fight.

[An Zhiren] personally handled the Wang family’s retaliation. It was precisely because the methods used were not honorable, so he did not want his family members to get involved.

Just like the Old Master was worried that he would sink into hatred during his revenge process, [An Zhiren] also felt that doing bad things could become addictive.

Especially with [An ZhiXian’s] identity as a doctor, his medical skills should be used to treat illnesses and save people, and should not become tainted because his older brother did something foolish.

However, it was also because of this fight that the relationship between the two brothers became closer afterwards.

[An Zhiren] disagreed with [An ZhiXian’s] approach for his younger brother’s own good. It was fine if just he himself became tainted from dealing with the Wang family alone, the other person should not get involved.

[An ZhiXian] also promised that he would not intervene anymore in subsequent matters.

In fact, if it were not for [Wang's Father] happening to fall into his hands, he would not have intended to do anything either.

Zhi Xia unfolded the quilt, revealing the neatly folded quilts inside. She reached out to spread it open.

"Ah..."

A sharp shriek came from the room and [Pei Jing] hurriedly quickened his pace to run inside. "What's wrong?"

By now, Zhi Xia had already let out a sigh of relief. Still frightened, she pointed at the quilt, "There are mice."

When she pulled open the quilt just now, a big mouse rushed out from inside, even touching her hand.

Her scalp tingled at that time, and she was scared to death.

Only then did [Pei Jing] notice that the quilt on the bed had been pulled open, revealing a nest of newborn baby mice inside without any fur. They were clearly just born.

The quilt had been gnawed ragged with cotton poking out everywhere, giving off a rancid smell. There were also scattered mouse droppings.

[Pei Jing] half embraced Zhi Xia in his arms to comfort her, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. It's just a few baby mice. You go out first to check on the kids. I'll tidy up inside the room. I'm afraid this quilt can't be used anymore."

"Then just throw it away. It's all mouse piss and shit. Don't know if the cabinet has been damaged either." Zhi Xia did not stand on ceremony with him and hurried out to wash her hands.

It really was a huge mouse. Its tail was so long and straight without any fur. Just thinking about it still gave her the creeps.

Anyway, there were no outsiders at home, so Zhi Xia simply moved both children into the space.

In her previous life, there had been many cases of mice eating children. Although she had never personally witnessed it, she had heard much about it in that information-rich era. So safety was the priority now.

She had seen mice before, but this kind of disgusting scene was definitely the first time she had experienced it since being reborn.

[Pei Jing] took out several newborn mice, and the bolder child came over wanting to play with them.

The unwanted quilt was collected by Zhi Xia into the space. It only needed star coins to be disposed of as garbage. She was not lacking star coins now and was no longer as frugal as when she first started out.

It was a pity that the big mouse was not caught. Zhi Xia was still a little afraid that it would come back, so she placed mousetraps under the bed and on top of the cabinets.

These were high-tech mousetraps. There were sounds inside to attract mice and it guaranteed 100% trapping success rate.

Fortunately, although there were bite marks on the wooden boards of the cabinets, the boards had not been chewed through yet. The items inside were also undamaged without any traces of destruction.
