Ji Changze not only pretended to outsiders, but also pretended to be real to Qiao Yuanhuan. He could be as weak as he wanted, but he could still maintain the illusion of being weak and unable to move around and asking his wife to support him, while at the same time keeping his feet steady. Qiao Yuanhuan was not overwhelmed.
His acting skills were so lifelike that Qiao Yuanhuan was convinced. His face was full of worry: "Brother Ze, are you feeling weak from kneeling for the past two days? How about I take you to the medical clinic in front to have a look?"
"Don't."
Ji Changze's face was pale, his eyes wandered around the crowd watching the excitement, and he showed a bit of strength on his face. He pursed his lips, and his voice was obviously weak, but the volume was raised enough that the people around him could hear:
"Don't let anyone see the joke. Let's go back directly."
"Even if my father is ill now, there is still a man like me at home. No matter what happens, we have to stand up straight."
That would be fine if it weren’t for what he said next. With those words added to it, how could the people who had been watching the excitement in front of Mr. Qiao’s door and followed him all the way to watch not know who the “person” Ji Changze was talking about? .
He is not the uncle who disregards brotherhood and is willing to throw dirty water on his once son and now nephew in order to be fair and aboveboard.
Ji Changze was born well and young, and his character as a scholar is still highly valued nowadays. He showed his "arrogance" on the street, and the common people just watched, but the scholars praised him from the bottom of their hearts.
In the past, although the eldest young master of the Ji family was not showy, and even heard to have a somewhat arrogant temperament, now that the family regards him as the eldest young master, his temper is naturally coquettish.
But after all, he is still young, otherwise he would not have been splashed with dirty water for two days in vain.
Ji Changze coughed a few times "weakly", and when he saw the well-dressed people around him, his eyes filled with sympathy and appreciation. He thought it was almost done, so he stopped without staying any longer, and met Qiao Yuanhuan who was supporting him. Went home together.
But it was precisely because of his short stay that some people appreciated him even more.
Being able to endure such humiliation without saying anything bad about Mr. Qiao shows that he is an upright person.
But think about it, Mr. Qiao Er was very knowledgeable at first. It was only after the family split that he got involved in business. But even if his subordinates were doing business, even if the students he taught did not have any amazing future, He had already gotten ahead of himself, so how could Ji Changze, who had grown up under his own tutelage, do any worse.
After Ji Changze made such a fuss, he was able to clean himself up for a short time. It was easier to deal with Ji's father and Ji's mother. Both of them could not go out at the moment. Only Qiao Yuanhuan was around to take care of her. Before, she I feel that my husband went to his uncle's house because he wanted to go back. He was afraid that the elders would be sad and kept it secret from them, so they didn't know about it for the past two days.
He didn't hide it directly. After returning, he went directly to Ji's father's bedside and knelt down.
Then he said with red eyes that his son was unfilial. He had been counting on saving our family for the past two days, so he ran to find his uncle. Unexpectedly, after kneeling for two days, he didn't even see his face, let alone lend you money. Buying medicine has made people laugh enough. Although my son is eighteen years old, before he could, he only focused on studying and having fun with his classmates, and never got involved in business. Now he really doesn't know what to do.
Qiao Yuanhuan didn't expect her husband to be so honest and tell the story of the past two days directly. She was worried that her father-in-law would be angry, so she quickly looked over. As a result, when she looked over, there was no anger on Ji's father's face in the hospital bed. Instead, he looked angry. Somewhat distressed.
In addition to feeling distressed, there is also some guilt hidden deep in my heart.
He had been lingering on the sickbed for the past two days and had never seen his son come to see him. He had some suspicions in his heart, but he never asked them out. In addition, the uncomfortable expression on his daughter-in-law's face when he pretended to mention it occasionally, With his son's admiration and yearning for his uncle, Ji's father became more and more sure of his thoughts.
Ji's father knows better than anyone what a child who has been raised by his own children is like, especially his son's attitude towards Mr. Ji. Ji's father can see clearly.
But in the past, what he thought about was that the child was young and had been spoiled since he was a child. He didn't know anything. Later, he saw clearly what his biological son looked like over there, and knew that he didn't care about him at all. He should have known what was going on, but he didn't expect this disaster to happen suddenly.
Ji's father guessed that Ji Changze went to see his eldest brother, and he was still a little disappointed. He knew that it was normal for children to have admiration for their biological parents, but now was the most difficult time for the Ji family, and he was still bedridden. Madam has just given birth to a son and has raised Nagasawa for eighteen years. Can't she let him take care of and comfort them at this time
Ji's father suffered in his heart for two days by himself. His illness, which was originally controllable, got a little worse. He was so depressed that he couldn't even get out of bed.
As a result, his son came back and told him that he went to see his uncle, but not to ask for recognition, but to ask for help from his uncle.
The anger that had been stuck in his heart for the past two days suddenly dissipated.
Especially when he saw Ji Changze looking lost and disappointed in his eyes, he whispered to him that he had heard that his uncle was a brilliant man and a serious government official serving the country. He didn't know how much he admired his uncle in his heart. He didn't expect that. This time, when something happened at home, I realized that my uncle was not even willing to help his brother.
Damn it, my eldest brother is probably responsible for what happened this time.
If others don't know about Ji Feng Ji Yue, don't Ji Fu know about it? Although the two are brothers from the same father and mother, in Mr. Ji's heart, the younger brother is not there for brotherly love, but to share the family property with him.
Looking back, the age difference between the two is more than ten years. The teenage Master Ji has long been accustomed to having only one young master in his house. He also naturally believes that the family property, parents' love and affection belong to him alone. As a result, Ji's father was born. .
He is not the kind of concubine who can be dismissed casually, but a serious second son who can divide the family property and the love of his parents.
No one knows when Mr. Ji became crooked. Anyway, Ji's father liked to be close to this brother when he was a child. He expected his brother to take him to play, and worshiped his brother who was more capable than him. He only grew cold after suffering a few losses.
He is different from Mr. Ji. Mr. Ji never worries about whether his parents will be sad when he attacks his younger brother. But Ji's father is worried that his parents will not be able to bear the brothers killing each other when they are old. In addition, he is not as ruthless as Mr. Ji. He was very energetic, so he developed into literature, and only started to engage in business after the separation of the family.
As a result, he finally managed to build the current family property, but a disaster happened from the sky, and the property went bankrupt all of a sudden.
Ji's father has a clear heart, so he came here specifically for him. Although his previous family property attracted people's attention, who else but Mr. Ji would have such a reason to take action
It's not just because he wants to make money.
No matter how good-tempered a person is, he will be offended if he goes to such lengths, but now he feels quite happy in his heart.
Although most of it is bad news, isn’t there also good news
Look, the child he raised with his own hands has finally seen the ugly face of Mr. Ji, and he will no longer be as envious as before.
and! ! Nagasawa knelt at the door and said something like that before. In addition, he also said that there were many people watching the excitement around. It is estimated that today, Mr. Ji watched his brother die and his nephew knelt in front of him. The news spread throughout the city that he refused to help after two days of begging at the door.
He had never beaten his elder brother in a fight before, but he didn't expect that Nagasawa, who he had raised by himself, would let him fall into the trap today.
Cool! !
So cool! ! !
Ji's father glanced at his son who was kneeling in front of his bed with a look of loss and remorse, and coughed. He felt a little better after getting the good news, and actually let him sit up half-way with his body propped up.
He sat down and reached out to help Ji Changze.
"Good boy, get up quickly. Now that something is happening in our family, you went there because you wanted to help. I can't blame you."
Seeing that Ji Changze's face was still full of pain and anger, he sighed again: "Actually, dad didn't explain many things clearly to you before. Your uncle... eh."
There was a bit of sadness on his face, but he showed no mercy at all. He told all the things Mr. Ji had done before, of course, in a more tactful way.
For example, your uncle had just gotten married and your father and I were still a child. Maybe it was because your grandparents looked at me because I was young and loved me. He was unhappy and was not very friendly to your father and me. He even pushed me on purpose on a rainy day. I almost disfigured me, and then went to your grandparents to bite me back. I was young and didn’t know how to defend myself at the time. Looking back later, I’m afraid your uncle has never taken me seriously since then. Brother watched it.
After finishing speaking, I would like to add one sentence, but it may be that your uncle was young and did not know the importance of things. Time has passed, and I don’t want to blame him, etc.
No matter how young you can be, you were already married at that time. A married brother actually deliberately pushed his biological brother who was still a child. This shows his character and character.
What Ji's father said not only revealed Master Ji's rubbish character, but also incidentally created a great image of himself as a glorious person who doesn't care about his brother.
Otherwise, it is said that the literati can talk. As soon as he talked like this, the eldest brother who couldn't play with him before turned into a man who cared about the fraternal relationship and was unwilling to make an enemy.
Anyway, he just said how pitiful and pathetic he wanted to be.
After saying this, Ji Changze's face showed a bit of indignation. He said angrily: "Thankfully, I secretly admire you. It turns out that your uncle is such a person. Dad, why didn't you tell your son earlier? If you had known that he had been like that." I will definitely not give him a good look towards you."
Father Ji was happy.
He had wanted to use eye drops for a long time, but after all, the other person was Nagasawa's biological father. When his adoptive father said such things, it seemed as if he was jealous of his biological father and son and said bad things behind his back.
Moreover, applying eye drops behind your back is not something a gentleman would do, but this time he was seriously ill, and many things were different in Ji's father's heart. In addition, seeing his son's aggrieved and lost look now, if he didn't strike while the iron was hot, it would be a disaster. Too stupid.
Ze has witnessed with his own eyes what kind of person his eldest brother is, shouldn't he seize the opportunity to take eye drops? Otherwise, such a good opportunity would be wasted.
Opportunities are fleeting, so of course you should seize them if you can.
He said very "helplessly": "After all, he is your biological father. Although he wanted to send you away because of a monk's comment, you admire him so much, how could you have the heart to say it as a father."
Yes, that's right, that's it, to tell the truth about the eldest brother not wanting Nagasawa in such a subtle way.
Sure enough, Ji Changze looked greatly shocked and asked in disbelief: "Uncle ever wanted to send his son away??"
This reaction suited Ji's father exactly.
He was excited and tried hard to show a bit of regret on his face, with an expression of "Hey, why did I just say that? I shouldn't tell you this."
Ji Changze was indeed anxious and kept asking what was going on.
Ji's father "couldn't shirk", so he "utterly helpless" told what had happened.
Of course, it has undergone some polishing and processing.
For example, Mr. Ji first started thinking about it after hearing the words of his beloved concubine. In Ji's father's words, he immediately worried about Ji Changze himself, and at that time, he planned to throw Ji Changze into the Zhuangzi and be killed. The old lady stopped her and went to Jifu, which turned into "Your mother and I heard about this, and thought about how a child like you could survive being thrown outside in such a chaotic situation, so we went to find it." Your grandma”.
He also described very emphatically how cold-blooded and ruthless Mr. Ji was when Ji Changze was taken away by them. He didn't even look at him. How Ji Changze cried loudly when he was still a baby. His cries made people cry. But in the end, , Mr. Ji did not come to see off his son who would become his nephew.
Father Ji still has integrity. Although there is a little artistic processing, most of it is the truth. It is just that through his own description, he vividly portrays the cruelty and ruthlessness of Master Ji.
Ji Changze cooperated and showed an even more disappointed look.
Then he said the words that Ji's father wanted to hear most: "I didn't expect that my uncle was such a person. If I had known it earlier, my son would not ask for him. Father, you are so kind to take care of your illness. I will never ask for him again. He will not worth."
Hey, mother, these words made Father Ji feel as comfortable as taking a sip of ice water in the middle of summer.
Although the family has fallen into decline, now the whole family is united, and that is stronger than anything else.
My heart felt comfortable, and my body felt much better than before. Especially Ji Changze opened the window to let the room have some ventilation. He no longer had the arrogance that he had been used to, and instead spoke with a little calmness about the future at home. With him, Ji's father would be better off if he allowed his father to take good care of his illness and not worry about it.
When he saw Ji Changze go out, he was still thinking in his heart. Although Changze was a little naive and had no worries about food, clothing and care since he was a child, it was not without its benefits.
Look, he won his son back in just a few words.
Hey, he is still a sword-sword.
But Nagasawa is still too coaxable.
As soon as Ji Changze went out, Qiao Yuanhuan came up to him and asked nervously: "Brother Ze, how is dad?"
You won't be offended by your uncle's disapproval of his popularity.
"Dad is fine. I talked with him for a while, and he seems to be in much better spirits now than before."
Ji Changze really didn't expect that the old man would be settled by him in just a few words.
This old man is quite easy to coax.
