Because Mrs. Leng occasionally cooks, Ayu often goes to the Pianyuan to eat and drink. He happened to go to the Pianyuan that year to get some food, and he happened to see Afeng going to steal some food that day. Later, Mrs. Leng prepared pastries for him.
He ate as if he had been hungry for several days. If you didn't look at his clothes, you wouldn't believe that he was a child of the Leng family.
Ah Feng was very thin. Although he was fair and clean, his body was very weak. Looking at him from a distance, he thought he was the child that Ah Lan had picked up from outside and had just changed his clothes.
Later, he found out that this child was Yueyao's child, and he couldn't believe his eyes. It wasn't until A-Lan came back with the nanny that he realized that it was the nanny who deliberately refused to feed A-Feng.
"Ah Feng was already three or four years old at that time, right? Yueyao was in control of the house, but she didn't care about her child. If it weren't for my wife and you, the child would have died long ago." Ayu said excitedly.
"Remember the first time you saw him?" Alan asked.
Ayu nodded and said nothing. He was just a little sad. He was just a servant in the Leng Mansion, but the old man loved him like his own grandson. Mrs. Leng was also very gentle to him. He was an orphan and often regarded Mrs. Leng as his own.
My own biological mother.
But Ah Feng was from the Leng family. Apart from being well-dressed, he didn't even have enough to eat. If Yue Yao hadn't ignored him, how could a nanny dare to bully his master?
When the two of them went back, Ah Feng had been sitting in the hall waiting for them early in the morning. Ah Lan was a little surprised and asked: "Why didn't you go to my yard and came here to find me?"
"I just wanted to look for you. I thought you might come to the side courtyard, so I came directly here." Ah Feng said.
"You are smart, haven't you eaten yet? Let's go." A Lan said with a smile.
After saying that, the three of them entered the front hall. When the servants saw A Lan coming back, they went in with food.
After lunch, A-Lan put down his teacup and asked, "Has A-Feng heard anything in the clan these days?"
"No one in the clan said anything, it's just people outside who spread rumors to stir up trouble. I knew that as soon as you went to the shop, you would know." Ah Feng said.
"It seems that you already knew this. Why didn't you mention it when I came back?" Alan asked.
"You never care about what people outside think of the Leng family." Ah Feng said.
"That's right, but something is wrong this time, and I have to pay attention to it," A-Lan said. A-Feng was a little confused and asked, "Why did the elder brother say that?"
Ah Feng didn't know what happened in the tea garden, let alone what happened in the main courtyard, so he felt a little strange why Ah Lan was so concerned about it this time.
"Because this time the rumors spread outside are not rumors, what they said is true." A Lan said.
Ah Lan briefly told Ah Feng about what happened to the Leng family. Sure enough, Ah Feng was very surprised and asked anxiously: "What? There was a problem in the tea garden business and the Leng family lost money. Is it true? You disappeared."
It's not surprising that people outside know that the matter is so big. But how do they know so clearly about the tea garden?"
"Yes, what happened before is true. That boss Ji is Wu Zun. Because he was investigating Yueyao, he deliberately went to the tea house in the name of the order he placed. After the accident at the tea house, my father returned to Leng's house to let him
Yue Yao helped him come up with ideas. After Yue Yao and her father discussed it, the two of them went to see Wu Zun to pay for the money. The story of the matter was explained in detail, so I realized something was wrong," A Lan said.
"Brother, do you suspect that the rumor was spread by the Leng family?" Ah Feng asked.
"I suspect that someone from the Leng family sent a message to the elders. The elders sent someone to spread the news," said A-Lan.
"Why do the elders do this? Aren't they also members of the Leng family? If the Leng family's business is damaged, what benefits do they have?" Ah Feng asked in confusion.
"It seems that Ah Feng didn't know what happened back then. Didn't you tell him?" Ah Yu asked.
Ah Lan shook his head and said that he had never mentioned this matter to Ah Feng.
So Ayu continued: "You were not born back then, and your second uncle had just passed away. The old man had always planned for his second uncle to become the head of the Leng family, but because of the death of his second uncle, the old man had to make other plans. Those things that the old man brought back from outside
Women are placed in the backyard, you should know this. People outside only know that the eldest young master of the Leng family likes to visit brothels, but no one knows that he will bring those women back and place them in the backyard. With the death of the second master, the master
The scandal was spread. Later, after an investigation by the old man, it was found that someone from the Leng family reported the news to the elders. I wonder which elder passed the news." Ayu thought for a while and said.
"Why do they do this? If the Leng family makes a fool of themselves, they will be humiliated. Why don't they deal with this matter privately?" Ah Feng asked confused.
"Because grandpa is a direct descendant of the Leng family, he has always been the head of the Leng family. The second uncle is very capable, so they don't dare to make trouble and there is no reason. Because the second uncle dies, grandpa will pass the head of the family to his father. Father.
Knowing nothing about business, and coupled with the rumors outside, if the elders object, grandpa naturally can't say anything. The purpose of their doing this is to choose a leader from the elders in the clan." Ah Lan thought for a while.
said.
"I finally understand that if grandpa is really his father, the elders will carry out the next plan. Unfortunately, grandpa chose you, so their plan was shattered. Although they said it nicely, they think that my father is not worthy of being Leng.
The head of the family actually wants to choose someone from his own lineage." Ah Feng said after understanding what A Lan said.
"Because grandpa didn't pursue this matter at the beginning, no one knew which elder it was. But grandpa didn't decide who would be his family members in advance. When grandpa passed away, the elders thought that grandpa had not left any last words. But they didn't expect that.
Grandpa was worried that the clan leader would cause trouble, but he actually left his legacy long ago." A Lan said.
"Grandpa didn't want to expose the elders' thoughts, but he didn't expect to give them another chance." Ah Feng said.
"Yes, this time is a chance for them. But don't worry, I believe A-Lan will find out the truth soon." Ayu said.
"For the next few days, you stay in Leng Mansion and don't go out." A Lan said.
"I understand. By the way, brother, does the clan leader know about this?" Afeng said.
"The patriarch has known about it for a long time, and the three elders even dragged the patriarch to the door." A Lan smiled broadly.
"You're here? Why? For those rumors? Didn't you say that the tea garden didn't cost a lot of money? Besides, you don't need your father to take care of the business when you come back. What do they want to do?" Ah Feng asked.
"Why did they come here because of these rumors? They were talking about my father's disappearance. Because they suspected that it was me, they put my father under house arrest. Amen even said that my father might have been gone a long time ago." A Lan said helplessly.
"My father is recovering in Fengtian Correctional Institution. Even if you tell them the truth, they won't believe it. If my eldest brother hadn't said this, I'm afraid I wouldn't believe it either," Afeng said.
"That's right, I didn't hide it from them. I told them that my father was recuperating in Fengtian Correctional Institution, but judging from their looks, they didn't believe me at all." A-Lan shrugged.
"But, it's been so many years, why don't they give up? What are they going to do this time? Do they want to repeat their old tricks?" Ah Feng asked.
He didn't understand what the elders were fussing over. Is it really that important who is the head of the family?
"That's right, they just plan to repeat their old tricks. Back then, they were still a little afraid of grandpa's majesty and wouldn't do something so cruel. Now that something has happened and grandpa is gone, they will only become more rampant." A Lan said.
"Brother, if my father comes back from Fengtian Sect, will they have no reason to question you?" Ah Feng asked.
"If they knew Yueyao lived in the backyard, I'm afraid they would continue to cause trouble," A Lan said.
"Damn it, is it possible that what happened to the Leng family can't be hidden from them?" Ah Feng said.
"Today I went to the backyard to see Yueyao, just to test whether the news was spread by the Leng family. After we brought Yueyao back last time, we arranged to live in the backyard directly. Because the relationship between me and her is not good, it should be
No one will care. But this time, Ah Feng and I went to see her again, and I believe the elder will know about it soon," Ah Lan said.
"I should have gone with my eldest brother if I had known earlier." Ah Feng said.
Ah Feng hated Yue Yao because he never cared about him after giving birth to him. However, he was also grateful to Yue Yao because Yue Yao was willing to give birth to him. He was often very conflicted because she was always his mother. If
Without her, I would not exist in this world.
Therefore, after hearing that A-Lan went to see Yueyao, he really wanted to meet that woman.
"Next time, big brother will take you there." A-Lan saw A-Feng's thoughts and said.
Ah Lan knew that Ah Feng actually had no hatred in his heart. Ah Feng had lived with them since he was a child, and she knew his temperament fairly well. Ah Feng was a kind-hearted person, and he must have wanted to visit Yueyao with a grateful heart.
Bar.
"Brother, if the elders find out about her, what are you going to do next?" Ah Feng asked anxiously.
A-Lan nodded to reassure A-Feng that he would never push Yue Yao out at this time. Yue Yao's affairs cannot be made public for the time being, otherwise the elder would not miss this opportunity. And Yue Yao will also die.
undoubtedly.
"Brother, will she..." Ah Feng thought for a while before asking.
"A Feng, believe me I won't let anything happen to her." A Lan said.
"I know that eldest brother has principles. If she does something wrong, she will definitely be punished by the clan rules. But, judging from her appearance, can she really survive until the caning is over?" Ah Feng said.
"So, after I brought her back, I placed her in the backyard because the backyard is quiet and conducive to health," A-Lan explained.
Sure enough, early the next morning, the elders appeared in the front hall of the Leng family. This time, the clan leader did not follow. I think the elders came here without telling the clan leader.
"Why did the elders come here in person again? Something happened in the clan?" A Lan asked.
"What happened to the clan? I heard that something happened to the Leng family again. What are you hiding from us?" the elder said hurriedly.
"The Great Elder lost his temper so early this morning, but Ah Lan really doesn't know what's going on? Are there any rumors spreading outside?" Ah Lan said.
"After your father disappeared, your wife also disappeared. You said that your father was picked up by you for treatment, but why did your wife also disappear?" the elder asked anxiously.
"Mother is indeed taking care of her health with father, and the elder is quite well-informed." A-Lan said pretending to be surprised.
