Originally, Yu Hongdou had a good idea to keep Wu Xingyun away from everyone's sight for the time being. However, he was recognized by the sedan bearers as soon as he walked out of the temple gate.

"Isn't this the eldest daughter of the Zongheng Escort Agency?" Carrier A recognized Wu Xingyun who was half-carried out by Changhe at a glance.

"..." Yu Hongdou was speechless for a moment, then turned to look at the sedan bearer: "Brother, do you know this sister?"

The sedan bearer nodded, pulled open the curtain, asked Changhe to put the person on the sedan, and then asked Yu Hongdou to get on. He lifted the sedan before talking to Yu Hongdou, Changhe and Changlin.

"Well~ Speaking of which, this young lady is really miserable..." The sedan bearer told everything he knew.

Wu Xingyun is indeed a bit miserable.

The Zongheng Escort Agency was originally founded by the old man of the Wu family. It was once a well-known escort agency in the four surrounding provinces.

Unfortunately, the old man of the Wu family was injured when he was young and only had one daughter.

However, the old man had traveled far and wide, witnessed countless life and death situations, and was lucky to be able to survive. He did not force any offspring, and only wanted to raise his daughter peacefully and then find someone to inherit the martial arts school.

The old man was an upright person, and he sympathized with the weak. He recruited many young men from poor families into the escort agency, and trained them all step by step, treating them as his personal disciples.

Among them was a man who had average talent in martial arts but was very good at scheming. Under his leadership, the business and reputation of the escort agency became increasingly prosperous.

This man had a smooth personality and was very good at pleasing others. He soon won the favor of the former young lady of the Wu family and became the son-in-law of the Wu family and the head of the Zongheng Escort Agency.

After seeing that his son-in-law and daughter were getting married and the couple was loving each other, and the escort agency was managed in an orderly manner, Old Man Wu retreated behind the scenes and went to Yunruo Temple to practice.

Unexpectedly, the young lady of the Wu family had a bad fate. She had difficulty giving birth to a girl. She struggled to raise her for three years, but then she died of illness.

The old man of the Wu family was afraid that his son-in-law would treat his granddaughter badly, so he had to drag his old and weak body down the mountain again to take on the responsibility of raising his granddaughter.

"Mr. Wu was old, had hidden injuries, and had experienced the pain of losing his daughter. He managed to raise Miss Wu until she was ten years old, and then he passed away."

The bearer's voice of regret was heard in the sedan chair, and Yu Hongdou saw Wu Xingyun's brows furrowed.

"Originally, the son-in-law of the Wu family had not remarried for seven years and devoted himself to the escort agency. Everyone said he was kind and righteous, but when the old man left, his true colors were revealed."

"What do you mean by not getting married? In fact, he already has a mistress. Her son is already eight years old!"

The sedan bearer spat fiercely, his tone full of disdain.

After the old man passed away, the former direct descendants also dispersed. From then on, the Zongheng Escort Agency was completely controlled by Wu Xingyun's father.

The man finally revealed his true colors.

He openly welcomed his concubine and illegitimate son into his house, and became increasingly impatient with his eldest daughter, Wu Xingyun.

If it had come to this, it would not be so bad. After all, the girl would get married in the future. At worst, she would marry far away and no longer have any contact with her parents' home.

But this mistress who had been kept outside for more than ten years and this illegitimate son for eight years refused to do so.

"How does that saying come from? A villain becomes arrogant when he succeeds, and a man forgets his old lover when he finds a new one..." The sedan bearer used random words he knew, but his description was very accurate.

Because the eldest daughter of the Wu family is very talented in martial arts, although she is only ten years old, she has already made some achievements in martial arts, and many of the escort agency's bodyguards are convinced by her.

The mistress then whispered in the rumor that the escort agency was inherited from the Wu family after all, and if the eldest daughter of the Wu family continued to gain power, it would not be long before the escort agency would be back in the hands of the Wu family.

How could a man who had worked hard for half his life tolerate such words? He forced the eldest daughter of the Wu family to stop practicing martial arts.

The illegitimate child was eight years old and teased cats and dogs every day, which provoked the eldest lady. Then he ran to complain. Every time this happened, Miss Wu would be punished.

"I used to have a big yellow dog. One day, that bastard saw it and wanted to kill it for its meat. I was so angry that I almost had a fight with his lackeys. It was the eldest lady who came forward to help me."

Finally, the sedan bearer explained why he knew and cared about the eldest daughter of the Wu family.

Having said this, they also went into the city.

Yu Hongdou did not ask the sedan bearers to go to the clinic, but asked them to carry the person to her home, and then asked Changhe to find a doctor with a tight-lipped mouth.

After getting off the sedan chair, Yu Hongdou asked Changlin to give the sedan bearer two more taels of silver to keep the matter quiet.

"Miss, don't worry. We will definitely not tell anyone that Miss Wu is here. Miss Wu has helped me before, and I, Jia Liu, am not an ungrateful person."

The sedan bearer took the silver, bowed to Yu Hongdou, and then turned and left.

After the doctor came to see Wu Xingyun, Yu Hongdou, who had just complained about Phoenix men being scumbags, got really angry.

Wu Xingyun was actually beaten with a military stick, and according to the doctor, such injuries were obviously caused by a full-strength beating, and no less than thirty sticks.

What kind of thing could cause a Cinderella who was bullied by her scumbag father and stepmother to be beaten like this?

Could it be that Miss Wu stabbed someone?

While Yu Hongdou was guessing, Changhe had already sent the doctor back and made inquiries.

"I went to ask, and there is nothing wrong with the Zongheng Escort Agency. No one has even come to see this person. The head of the escort agency, Zhao Zhongjing, doesn't seem to be at home. The one in charge at home now is."

Changhe reported to the young lady what he had heard, and his heart was filled with sympathy for the eldest lady of the Wu family.

Although they are both young ladies, the eldest lady of the Wu family is so miserable compared to her own young lady that passers-by can only shed tears.

"Spend some money and ask someone to go to the Wu family's backyard to investigate and see if there is anything going on..." Just as Yu Hongdou gave these instructions, a groan was heard from behind her.

“Don’t bother asking. How can they care whether I live or die?” Wu Xingyun lifted his heavy eyelids and looked at the little girl standing beside the bed with a wry smile.

In fact, she was only unconscious for a while, and was in a daze afterwards. She also heard the sedan bearer talking about her family affairs intermittently. She also knew that the little girl in front of her took her home and found a doctor to treat her.

"I deserve this from myself. Who told me to still have a glimmer of hope in that person? I'm so stupid that I deserve to die!"

Wu Xingyun said harsh words, but sad tears flowed from his eyes.

"Miss, there is no hurdle in life that cannot be overcome. Anyone can survive by leaving the other, and may live a more exciting life." Yu Hongdou sighed and handed over her handkerchief.

Wu Xingyun was stunned after hearing this. He carefully considered it, then smiled bitterly and shook his head, “Little sister knows this truth, but I just couldn’t understand it. It’s not unfair that I’ve ended up like this.”

After saying that, he took the handkerchief from Yu Hongdou's hand, wiped his face, and began to explain the reason for his miserable situation.

This talk actually connected the previous story that Yu Hongdou had just learned.
