"You want to see me?" Wei Chenglin was a little surprised, he didn't expect that the person who had been imprisoned for more than a year, and no one could get half a word from him, would ask to see him.
However, when he saw the undisguised anger on the other party's face, he couldn't help but feel a little dazed.
This person... has a problem with himself
"Yes, I want to see you, to see when you, an inhuman beast like you, will suffer retribution!!" The man's eyes were spitting fire, and he squeezed out words through his teeth.
Wei Chenglin's face immediately darkened, murderous aura suddenly appeared.
"If you see me just to show your tongue, forgive me!" Knowing that he couldn't touch the other party for the time being, he could only suppress his anger.
"Back to human relations and behave like beasts, you will die a bad death! Wei Chenglin, you are disloyal and filial, and you ignore your mother, causing her to die in the family temple. When I dream back at midnight, I will not be afraid of you, the ancestors of the Wei family." Came to ask you for guilt?!"
Wei Chenglin's complexion changed suddenly. The death of his biological mother had become a thorn in his heart. Bo Jing'an's scolding, Yang's indifference, and the alienation of his cousins seemed to whip him mercilessly, but they never No one reprimanded him so bluntly like the person in front of him.
"Such a behavior of beasts, even if it is..."
He suddenly stretched out his hand, strangled the man's neck, and the scolding stopped abruptly. The man's face was flushed by his pinch, but a pair of unusually bright eyes were full of stubbornness and anger. The half-point of fear and begging for mercy also aroused his anger even more, and his hands became stronger and stronger.
The man's breathing became more and more difficult, and his face became more and more ugly. Seeing that he was about to die on the spot, Zhi Mo, who happened to walk in, was shocked, and hurried forward, trying his best to save the man.
"My lord, absolutely not!" Seeing that the murderous look on Wei Chenglin's face was still there, and he didn't care about the man who escaped from death and was lying on the ground gasping for breath, he hurriedly dissuaded him.
"Oh, you, you turned into anger after being rightly accused..." The man finally recovered his breath, and said sarcastically upon seeing this.
Wei Chenglin's anger at being persuaded by Zhimo rose again, and he heard the man sternly say: "Do you know what kind of life she lived in the family temple? The majestic lady of the state's mansion has only one trustworthy person to serve her, but it's just for the time being. Lost, even a servant in your mansion dares to bully each other with words, and all of this is thanks to your good son!"
Wei Chenglin shuddered, and subconsciously retorted: "It's a bunch of nonsense!"
"What nonsense?! Heh, heh." The man sneered, and then changed his tone, looking like a conceited and arrogant slave, "Next month is my wife's birthday, and the Duke of the country has ordered it to be done. Everyone is too busy to touch the ground, anyway, Mrs. Tai stays in the house all day and doesn't go anywhere, so she must not be in a hurry, so let's do the clothes for the four seasons later for now!"
After a while the tone changed again, and he said again: "Madam Tai must not be able to eat so much, why don't I give these dishes to the old slave, and let the grandson of the old slave try something new!"
No matter how stupid Wei Chenglin was, he could tell that his words were imitating others, his pupils shrank because of the inside story revealed in these words.
That was his biological mother, even though she was sent to the family temple, her food and clothing expenses were still the same as the Duke and Mrs. But now...
He forced himself to calm down, and asked in a deep voice: "Who are you? What is your relationship with your first mother? Why do you know so many things?"
The man sneered again: "You don't need to pay attention to who I am. I was seriously injured that day, and I was hidden in your Wei family temple. Naturally, I know everything that Mrs. Tai suffered."
Since his adoptive parents passed away at the age of seven, and he was taken away by his biological father's loyal servants, he knew his own life experience. Since then, he has only one belief in his life, and that is to avenge his family's blood!
On that day, he was seriously injured and had no choice but to flee to the Wei family temple, and happened to hide in the wife's room and witnessed her condition with his own eyes.
He took a deep breath, and his eyes were sharp: "You all think she is crazy, but even if she is crazy, she only thinks about you brother and sister! What hurts is not being close to each other, and my daughter died early!"
He remembered countless times, the man was still insane, and even regarded himself as his son Wei Chenglin, but he called "Brother Lin" in his tone, and his movements of pity for the wound on his body were so gentle , like every mother in the world who is full of love for her children.
"She hates herself for being cowardly and incompetent, unable to raise and take care of her own son herself, heartbroken for her son's indifference and alienation, grieving for her daughter's early death, and unable to fulfill her responsibilities as a mother. You can only blame her for not understanding herself, but she never Take the initiative to try to understand her, and when she is most distressed and desperate, she will only be completely abandoned!"
"Wei Chenglin, the person who died should not be her, but you!"
Wei Chenglin's face was pale, and his body kept shaking.
He really wanted to stop the other party loudly, tell the other party to shut up, and wanted to tell him that he never thought of abandoning his mother. A man full of hatred for his wife.
The man became more and more agitated as he spoke, and almost ignored the chains on his hands and feet, and wanted to beat him when he struggled, but Zhi Mo stopped him in time and ordered the jailer to take him down by force.
Wei Chenglin didn't know how he got out of the sky prison and how he got back to the Duke's Mansion.
When he realized it, he had already walked to the courtyard where his father was.
He pushed the door lightly and walked in. The tables and chairs in the house were neatly arranged. Since his father passed away, no one has lived here, but someone comes to clean it every few days.
After so many years, he almost couldn't remember his father's appearance. He only remembered that gentle and loving face, always smiling, and when he looked at him, even his eyes seemed to be smiling.
Sitting in front of the desk, recalling his father's voice and smile, his eyes gradually became blank.
If the father treats his mother like this, causing her to pass away in misery and loneliness, isn't it...
"Master Guo." Zhimo's voice sounded in the room.
He collected himself, suppressed the feeling of desolation in his heart, and asked in a deep voice: "Have you found out?"
"I've found out. Before Mrs. Tai was alive, except for Chunliu who was by her side who did her best to take care of her, everyone else could still perform their duties as servants at the beginning. It's just that after a long time... Chunliu, who is alone, always takes care of her." place." Zhimo hesitated, but still reported what he found out one by one.
Wei Chenglin looked calm, but there was a storm in his eyes.
very good…
But Zhou Guanning was making small clothes for a pair of children when she suddenly saw the maid Liushuang running in in a panic: "Ma'am, it's not good, the Duke wants to drive Nanny Sun and others away..."
"What? Why did this happen?!" Zhou Guanning turned pale with shock, put down his embroidery work, grabbed Liu Shuang and asked.
Grandma Sun is her dowry nun, she has been by her side since she was very young, and thanks to her being by her side all these years, taking care of the household chores for her, she is able to devote herself wholeheartedly to caring for her husband and raising her children.
These years, Nanny Sun has worked hard even if she has no credit, why did your husband suddenly attack her
"I couldn't hear clearly from outside, but I just know that Grandpa Sun suddenly ordered someone to take away Nanny Sun, together with those who served Mrs. Tai back then, all of them will be hit with 30 boards first, saying that it doesn't matter if they are beaten to death, or they will be killed before they die." Dispose of it!" Thinking of the coldness on Wei Chenglin's face when he gave the order, Liu Shuang couldn't help but shudder.
Zhou Guanning's heart tightened, and she clenched her hands subconsciously.
The people who serve Mrs. Tai...could it be related to the mother-in-law who has passed away? Or what did Nanny Sun do in private
She was about to go to Wei Chenglin to intercede, and no matter what, she had to find a way to save Grandma Sun, but she never thought that before she stepped out of the door, there was another disorderly footsteps outside, accompanied by the woman's begging for mercy.
"What are you doing?!" She couldn't bear it anymore and rushed out, seeing a group of guards arriving at some time, forcibly dragging away several maids in her courtyard.
"Return to madam, this subordinate is under the order of the Duke of the country, to bring down the food!" The headed guard bowed to her with a straight face, and replied.
"What is eating inside and outside? What is inside and outside?!"
"This subordinate doesn't know. If Madam wants to know, it's better to ask the Duke in person. It's just that the Duke is busy right now, so I'm afraid he won't have time to pay attention to Madam."
Zhou Guanning wanted to say something, but the man bowed to her and raised his hand, and the guards behind him escorted the maids away.
Zhou Guanning watched them go further and further away, and panic suddenly arose in his heart.
What the hell happened? Why did the husband dispose of the people around her without her consent
All these people around her were carefully selected for her by her parents before she got married, and they have been loyal all these years, so she doesn't need to worry at all. Now once they are taken away, no matter how stupid she is, she knows that they are gone forever.
The cleansing of the inner house caused everyone in the mansion to be puzzled, but no one dared to say a word.
Even Grandma Sun who is beside Madam can't escape, it can be seen that the Duke is very furious this time, although he doesn't know what they did to bring about such a fate, but no one dares to touch this bad luck, see the Duke Don't even want to see the wife you have always loved the most
"What do you mean? Sending away all capable people around Ah Wan, wouldn't that break her arm?" On this day, Wei Chenglin had just left the office and was about to return home when Zhou Mao sent someone to invite him. After entering his study, Zhou Mao asked dissatisfiedly.
"Those people have no masters, and they deserve to be dealt with." He replied blankly.
"What is deserved, others don't care, only Grandma Sun..."
"Father-in-law!" Wei Chenglin interrupted him.
"Father-in-law, this is the son-in-law's family matter, so don't worry about it. Could it be possible that after marrying your daughter from the Zhou family, our government will also have the surname Zhou?"
"You!!" Zhou Mao's face changed drastically, he couldn't believe that he said such a thing, and he was furious, "What do you mean by that?!"
"That's what it means on the surface. The Duke's Mansion doesn't support people who eat inside and out. Since they never forget the old master, I will fulfill them! My father-in-law doesn't have to worry about their whereabouts. Now that they are in the dowry of Aguan, if my father-in-law is still at ease But, just go and bring them back!" Wei Chenglin said against his anger.
"you… "
"Okay, okay, is there anything you can't say? Why are you so blushing and thick-necked." Wen came in quickly, persuaded the furious husband, and said softly to Wei Chenglin, "The weather is not good right now. Good morning, Ah Wan must be waiting for you to go back, I won't keep you anymore, so be careful on the way."
Wei Chenglin pursed his thin lips, did not say anything more, bowed his hands and left.
"What do you mean by that? I'm so angry!!" Zhou Mao was still angry.
Wen frowned and sighed, "I'm afraid my son-in-law is dissatisfied with Nanny Sun telling us about the affairs of the house from time to time."
Zhou Mao sneered: "Whoever has the spare time to care about the affairs of their house, I just worry about my daughter."
Wei Chenglin did not return to the mansion immediately, but sent his followers away, rode out of the city gate alone, and headed all the way to the outskirts of Beijing.
Over there, there is Wei's family temple, where his mother died.
"Bastard, let go!!"
"Bitch, if it weren't for you, how could I have ended up like this!"
"Let go, let me go!!"
Riding his horse to the foot of the mountain, he suddenly saw a man and a woman in front of him arguing and pulling. The man firmly grasped the woman's hand, as if he wanted to drag her away. The woman struggled endlessly, suddenly lowered her head, and bit the man's hand forcefully.
The man felt the pain, raised his hand, and slapped the woman hard, knocking her down to the ground. He was still angry, and took a step forward, grabbed the woman by the collar with one hand, and wanted to hit the woman with the other.
It was too late to say it, and then it was too late, seeing that the slap was about to fall on the woman again, Wei Chenglin stepped forward, grabbed the woman with a big palm, and firmly grasped the woman's wrist, making her unable to move anymore.
"Wei Chenglin?!" The visitor was furious and was about to fight back, but his face changed when he recognized him.
"You recognize me?" Wei Chenglin frowned.
He didn't remember that he knew such a person who beat weak women in broad daylight.
"He doesn't know any of the dignitaries in the capital." The woman who was knocked down just now got up and said coldly.
"Forget it, calculate your luck!" The man bluffed and dropped the words, but he didn't dare to meet Wei Chenglin's face, and ran away in a hurry.
Wei Chenglin also had no intention of chasing after her, his eyes fell on the woman, and saw that half of her face was swollen from the beating, but her expression was quite indifferent. I don't know if it was his illusion, but he actually saw a trace of disgust in the other's eyes.
"Ma'am, what's wrong with you, Ma'am? Did that beast hit you again?!" Suddenly, a woman dressed as a maid ran out from the other side, and ran to the injured girl. Seeing the wound on her face, another Heartache and anger.
"Let's go!" The woman said calmly without answering her words.
The maid wiped away her tears and inadvertently saw Wei Chenglin who didn't say a word, her expression seemed a bit stunned, but she didn't say anything, and chased after the woman.
From a distance, Wei Chenglin heard her ask in a low voice: "... Madame, isn't that the British Duke whom the master praised so much before his death?"
"An unfaithful and unfilial person, what is there to say." The woman's disgusted voice, even though it was far away, Wei Chenglin could hear it.
The pair of master and servant walked further and further away, and finally completely disappeared from his sight.
He frowned thickly, and after a long time, he finally remembered who the other party was.
If she is really the daughter of General Huang, then the man just wanted to stop his wife and remarry earlier, but was reprimanded by his original wife in the street and forced to 'divorce'. The one who fetched water from the bamboo basket was empty.
The "original wife" who has attracted a lot of discussion from the ruling and opposition parties is none other than the only daughter of General Huang who has passed away many years ago, a woman named Qingshu.
You are a beautiful woman, but you marry someone who is not.
If General Huang knew that the husband-in-law whom he had selected so many times for his daughter ended up ruining his daughter's life, even if he died, he would be uneasy!
