As the Lin family left, the crowd around them was in an uproar again, and the look in Wu Mu's eyes became completely different.
"Could it be that Wu Mu is stupid? He actually dared to accept the Lin family's letter of challenge. This is a life and death fight in the arena. Could it be that he really doesn't want to live anymore? After finally surviving, he wants to die again."
"Who is the Lin family? Although I have never heard of Lin Yue awakening his bloodline, the Lin family has many skills and elixirs. As long as he is willing, Lin Yue can definitely be promoted to a monk. The skills of skin refining and bone forging are absolutely
There won’t be any shortage. But Wu Mu hasn’t even entered the skin refining field right now, so if he goes to gamble and fight, isn’t he looking for death?”
"It's a pity that Lin Yue was shocked by this Wu family boy's few words. He thought he was coming back from the dead and suddenly enlightened. Unexpectedly, he still made a mistake."
"Why are you faint? Who is the Lin family? Just now, the head of the Lin family came in person and proposed a letter of challenge. If Wu Mu does not agree, I am afraid that Jiutian will be in trouble. Now that he agrees, at least Jiutian will have a happy life.
It's better. This is a delaying tactic. In my opinion, the Wu family boy can actually come back from the dead, and maybe another miracle will happen."
There were waves of discussion all around, and it seemed that most of them were not optimistic about Wu Mu. He was facing the Lin family, and the strength between them was undoubtedly a match for one another.
They all shook their heads and gradually dispersed.
"Brother!! Is it really you?"
On the side, Wu Xinlian, who was dressed in plain clothes, still felt as if he was in a dream. He subconsciously rubbed his eyes, looked at Wu Mu hesitantly, and asked again.
Seeing Wu Xinlian dressed in pure white plain clothes, Wu Mu felt a pain in her heart. Plain clothes, ordinary people, would only wear them when they were observing mourning. Her current appearance was obviously that she was observing mourning for him. She looked haggard.
When the look fell into his eyes, a warm current surged through his heart. This was his sister.
"Of course it's me, Xin Lian. It's okay now. Let's go in and see Mom first."
Wu Mu reached out and touched Xin Lian's hair, with a hint of apology in his eyes.
"elder brother!!"
Wu Xinlian suddenly threw herself into Wu Mu's arms, and started crying on the spot. The clothes on her chest were soaked with tears on the spot.
Wu Mu was silent. Although he was already in his thirties in his previous life, comforting people was never his specialty. He just held the thin and delicate body in front of him tightly in his arms, with tears in his eyes.
He showed an extremely determined look.
I have already secretly made up my mind: no matter what, I will never let my mother and little sister suffer any suffering. I have never experienced the taste of family love in my previous life. In this life, I will never let anyone come to destroy the Lin family. What about the Lin family?
, if you really push me, I will bite off a piece of meat even if it means death.
In my arms, my little sister's crying became smaller and smaller, and after a while, it stopped completely.
Wu Xinlian raised her head from her arms and looked at Wu Mu. Her eyes were red, but she was full of worry, and said: "Brother, why don't we take my mother and leave Longmen Town."
"leave?"
Wu Mu shook his head and said: "I'm afraid we can't leave now. With the ability of the Lin family, it's okay to be in the town, but if we leave Longmen Town, without the power of the dynasty to deter us, we will definitely die."
He knew very well that this time it seemed that the Lin family was forced to retreat, but it was just walking a tightrope on the edge of a cliff. Although the Lin family would not blatantly harm him, who could say whether they would live or die if they left Longmen Town?
He is not an ignorant child, but a reborn person with decades of experience.
If the Lin family gives him nine days, they will never be afraid of him escaping.
"But, in nine days, brother, you will have a decisive battle with Lin Yue. If something goes wrong, what will my mother and I do in the future?" Wu Xinlian held Wu Mu's clothes tightly with her little hands. The strength of her fingers seemed a little tight.
pale.
"Don't worry, there is always a way out. Little sister, how are you doing with your mother?"
Wu Mu took a deep breath and asked again.
Wu Xinlian didn't say anything, his face looked a little sad, and then he took Wu Mu's hand and walked quickly towards the backyard of the restaurant.
This restaurant has always existed as long as Wu Mu can remember. This backyard is the place that he and his sister are most familiar with. Countless childhood memories are buried there. There is not much in the backyard.
A jujube tree with a crooked neck, a swing hanging from the jujube tree, and a hanging flower tree. The tree is covered with fine osmanthus flowers. Next to it, is an old well. Here, memories of childhood remain.
Looking at it, there is a row of residential courtyards. There are four rooms in total. The master bedroom is naturally occupied by the mother. Next to the master bedroom, on the left is Wu Mu's room, and on the right is Wu Xinlian's boudoir. There is another room, that is
Wing room.
For some reason, Wu Mu always felt an inexplicable gloom when he stepped into the courtyard, giving people a depressing illusion.
"Brother!! Mom is lying inside, please go in and take a look." Wu Xinlian's eyebrows showed a trace of sadness, and the worry on his face was always lingering on his face.
Squeak!!
Wu Mu took a deep breath, walked forward, stretched out his hand to push open the door, and walked into the house. There was no trace of stuffiness in the house. The surrounding windows were half-open, and the air flowed inside and outside, making the room feel cool.
Inside the house, on a pear wood bed, one can suddenly see a thirty-year-old woman lying on the quilt with her eyes closed. Her appearance is almost 70% similar to that of Wu Xinlian, but on her face, there is something...
She was pale, and even in her coma, she could see her furrowed brows, as if she was worried about something.
Even if he sleeps deeply, his sleep is restless.
Looking at the frown, Wu Mu felt an unspeakable pain in his heart.
Wu Mu, who had long decided to take on the responsibility of being the son and brother of his predecessor, had long regarded the woman on the bed as his mother. His mother's surname was Jiang, and her name was Jiang Yulian. As early as he could remember, Wu Mu
Mu remembered that only his mother was working hard to pull him and his sister. As for his father, he never appeared in his memory.
"How is mother?"
Wu Mu took a deep breath and asked with slightly trembling lips.
"Brother! My mother was hit by your sudden death a few days ago, and I felt depressed. I heard the doctor said that the heart vessels were severely damaged, and it was necessary to take the Heart-Building Pill to recover. If there was no Heart-Building Pill, mother would be healed at any time.
It's possible to just sleep like this. However, there is only one Heart-Building Pill left. It won't last long. One pill can only protect the heart for nine days."
After seeing Wu Mu, Wu Xinlian seemed to have found a backbone. He took out a jade bottle from his sleeve and opened it. There was a red pill lying quietly inside.
One heart-buoyant pill costs five hundred black iron coins. Wu Xinlian actually bought three of them at once. That is one thousand five hundred black iron coins. For the entire family, it can be said that all the wealth of the family has been lost.
All sent out.
With his previous family fortune, two was already the limit. Now that he had the extra one, one can imagine how much thought and pressure Wu Xinlian had to put in to buy it.
"I'm sorry for you!!"
Wu Mu looked at Wu Xinlian for a long time, then just nodded and said a few words.
These words made Wu Xinlian bite her lip hard, shook her head and said: "Brother, I feel sorry for you. Brother, if you come back, my mother will be fine." The sparkle in his eyes never let it flow out.
"Trust me, it'll be fine."
Wu Mu didn't say much, he just looked at his mother lying on the bed quietly for a while, then turned to look at Wu Xinlian, and said slowly, although his voice was not loud, there was an unpleasant feeling in it.
The emotion of consciously wanting to believe.
"Um!!"
Wu Xinlian nodded vigorously. Although she didn't know why, she could feel that in her brother after he came back from the dead, she could feel a kind of trust and security that she had never experienced before. It seemed that as long as he said it, he would
Nothing is impossible.
"How is the situation in the restaurant now?"
Wu Mu's eyes flashed and he asked immediately.
Based on the current situation, the entire family is already on the verge of falling apart. In order to buy the Heart-Building Pill, it is not an exaggeration to say that the family has been completely devastated. He just took a look and found that some valuable items had been sold in the restaurant.
.If you want to save this family, you must first turn around the restaurant business and earn enough money.
Money is not everything, but without money, nothing is impossible.
He needed money to redeem the restaurant from the Lin family's pawn shop, and he needed money to buy the Heart-Building Pills. In the future, he needed money even more. He wanted to practice, and the money he spent on practice was even greater.
Without money, nothing can be done.
And the restaurant is the only hope now. If he wants to make money as quickly as possible, the restaurant is the best place to start. Moreover, when he came from the graveyard, he already had a plan in mind.
"Brother! Now the restaurant has almost completely closed down. All the money in the family was used to buy heart-buoyant pills. There was no money to pay others. So they dismissed all the workers. There was also Aunt Zhang who was the cook in the restaurant.
, she has two children to raise. Although she never planned to leave, I still let her go back. Now in the restaurant, only the 500 jars of wine stored in the wine cellar have not been sold. The rest at home
We only have thirty black iron coins left."
Wu Xinlian naturally knew everything about the situation in the restaurant, and in a few words, he quickly explained everything clearly.
With only thirty black iron coins, he couldn't even open the restaurant.
Ask the waiter for money, ask the chef for money.
There is no way a mere thirty black iron coins can do it.
"It doesn't matter. From today on, we won't sell vegetables, we will only sell wine." Wu Mu said decisively with a look of wisdom in his eyes.
"Selling alcohol?"
Wu Xinlian blinked his eyes in confusion and said: "Brother, although there is still a lot of wine in our wine cellar, a jar of wine only sells for ten black iron coins. But it is impossible to sell all the wine at once.
Go, and if others know the situation of our family, they are only willing to pay three black iron coins for a jar of wine."
