The atmosphere in the Leng family has been a little different recently, as if everyone is enveloped in low pressure.
What Leng Litian fears most every day is coming home from get off work. He has always lived alone since he was an adult, but recently many unexplainable things have happened.
Leng Zhang Xiuling ordered: You must go home every day!
After work, Leng Litian didn't want to go home, so he kept wandering outside, but he didn't know where to go. His social circle was not large to begin with, and other than those in the mall, they didn't deliberately get to know each other more than just to show off.
Xia Tian didn't know where he went recently, which made him unable to find anyone to talk to.
In the end I had to go home in despair.
I originally thought that Leng Zhang Xiuling would not be at home at this time, but I didn't expect to see her sitting in the living room as soon as I walked in. Leng Litian couldn't help but slow down and speed up, wanting to rush straight into his room.
Recently, whenever Leng has time, Zhang Xiuling will pull him and read her blabberingly, which makes his ears almost grow calluses.
But I didn't expect that I was discovered by Leng Zhang Xiuling as soon as I took two steps.
"Leng Litian! Stop!"
"Haha, Mom. You didn't go out?"
Unable to escape, Leng Litian had no choice but to accept his fate and walked to Leng Zhang Xiuling, found a seat farthest away from her and sat down, then smiled fawningly.
He didn't understand. Leng Zhang Xiuling was the most sociable person, but why did she stay at home every day recently, almost never leaving the house? Could it be that she was just trying to protect herself?
"Get out? Where am I going?"
"Well, of course, go hang out with those aunties you have a good relationship with."
Listening to the tone, it sounded like the person who came was not kind, and Leng Litian couldn't help but feel chills running down his back.
Other children have been afraid of their father since childhood, but he has been afraid of his mother since he was a child.
In addition to Leng Zhang Xiuling's reputation, even when her father was alive, he was still afraid of her.
It's just that he has been sensible since he was a child, so he rarely angers Leng Zhang Xiuling. He has never seen her power. But recently, he has really seen it...
"Humph! Looking for them to play with? I'm sick, so I'll find my own way to deal with it!"
He snorted coldly, rolled his eyes, and looked angry.
Suddenly there were only two words in Leng Litian's mind, and that was: It's over!
Yes, it's over. Because Leng Zhang Xiuling was born in a poor family, and then married Leng Litian's father, she became a phoenix on a branch, so she was particularly concerned about the pomp and etiquette.
She, who has never spoken foul language, unexpectedly said this sentence. This is not the end of the world, "Well, who dares to make mom angry? Mom, tell me, and I will help you teach them a lesson."
With a flattering look on his face, Leng Litian looked at Leng Zhang Xiuling with a smile, but his heart was already beating.
Needless to say, this must have something to do with myself.
"Humph! It's not because of you. Do you know what the rumors are like outside now? People outside say that you are a scumbag and a heartless man who slept with other people's daughters and refused to take responsibility. You said, you said you would
Where can I put this old face? You still have the nerve to ask me to go out to play, aren’t you deliberately trying to piss me off!"
Angrily glanced at Leng Li, Zhang Xiuling scolded him dissatisfied.
However, Leng Litian has long been tired of hearing this these days, so he has no feelings at all and just keeps laughing.
"Well, mom, don't be angry. People can say whatever they want. We can't control their mouths."
After laughing apologetically, Leng Litian didn't know what to do.
In the past few days, he had a profound understanding of what the great sage and sage Confucius said: Only women and villains are difficult to raise. How classic it is.
"You think I am willing? I have heard such words everywhere these days, please listen to me. You must marry the young lady of the Cai family to me! Otherwise, you will not recognize me as your mother!"
"Uh...this mother..."
Why are you talking about this again?
Leng Litian was stunned. Ever since she was a child, her mother had never forced herself to do anything she didn't want to do. Even if she really wanted him to do what she wanted, she would just keep making innuendoes instead of
Say it directly like today.
"That's it! Either you marry her back to me, or you don't call me mom. I don't have a life like you, and you don't call me mom in the future!"
With a flick of her sleeves, Leng Zhang Xiuling made a decision that could not be changed.
This was not a request for advice, but a direct order, leaving no room for change.
"Mom, this... listen to me. It's not that I don't want to, but Miss Cai has already said that she won't marry me even if she marries a beggar."
Leng Litian had no choice but to use what Cai Huayan said to block Leng Zhang Xiuling, although he knew very well that Cai Huayan said such words at the time mostly out of anger.
However, since she has said such words, it means that she will have nothing to do with him in the future, so why bother?
"Leng Litian! I don't care what you say, this matter is settled anyway! You have to be willing if you want, and you have to be willing if you don't want to."
There was no room for refutation. After Leng Zhang Xiuling finished speaking, she stood up and prepared to go back to her room without giving Leng Litian a chance to explain.
After all, he is the son he raised by himself, and she is quite clear about Leng Litian's personality. There must be a certain degree of credibility in what he says, but she can't care so much now.
"Mom, how could you do this? How can you force your brother if he doesn't want to? This is his lifelong happiness!"
Leng Qianxue had been hiding aside and eavesdropping. When she saw Leng Zhang Xiuling preparing to go back to the room, she immediately rushed out anxiously.
How could this be possible? If it worked, wouldn't that brother Cai Huayan be married?
"What do you know about your kid? Go back to your room and read a book!"
Glancing at Leng Qianxue displeased, Leng Zhang Xiuling said calmly.
"Mom, how can you be so unreasonable? Don't you know that if your brother doesn't like it, he won't be happy in the future? Don't you want to see your brother unhappy all his life?"
Leng Qianxue has always been very favored. Although she is not a member of the Leng family, but an orphan adopted by Leng Zhang Xiuling. However, Leng Zhang Xiuling has treated her better than Leng Litian over the years. She has always wanted what she wants.
As a result, he developed an arrogant personality.
"Snapped!"
A heavy slap fell on Leng Qianxue's face, and five bright red finger marks suddenly appeared on her white cheek.
Covering her face, Leng Qianxue looked at Leng Zhang Xiuling in disbelief.
Zhang Xiuling has never said a harsh word to herself since she was a child. Now, now she actually hits herself?
"Qianxue, are you okay?"
Leng Litian was also startled, holding Leng Qianxue in his arms and looking up and down.
"Woooo..."
She had been pampered since she was a child, but when had she ever been wronged like this? Leng Qianxue immediately fell into Leng Litian's arms, and her tears couldn't stop falling.
"Cry, why are you crying! Why don't you go back to my room!"
Leng Qianxue's crying made Leng Zhang Xiuling upset for a while, and she couldn't help but scolded her angrily.
"Mom, what are you doing? Qianxue didn't do anything wrong!"
Frowning slightly, Leng Litian looked at Leng Zhang Xiuling with dissatisfaction.
He didn't understand. Although Leng Qianxue's words just now were not very pleasant, they were nothing compared to the unpleasant words she had said before.
Her mother had never touched her before. What happened today?
"Go back to your room! Did you hear me?"
Completely ignoring Leng Litian's inquiry, Leng Zhang Xiuling just stared at Leng Qianxue coldly and scolded her in a low voice.
Leng Qianxue looked at Leng Zhang Xiuling timidly and her body couldn't help but tremble slightly. She felt a lot of dissatisfaction in her heart, but she didn't dare to say a word under Leng Zhang Xiuling's gaze. In the end, she had to walk back to the room in three steps.
"Mom, what are you doing? Why do you want to hit Qianxue?"
Seeing Leng Qianxue's aggrieved look, Leng Litian couldn't help but frown.
Although Leng Qianxue is not his biological sister, he has always taken care of her as his biological sister since she was a child.
"Shut up! Follow me!"
Leng Zhang Xiuling stopped explaining and said nothing. She just turned around and walked back.
Leng Litian didn't understand what Leng Zhang Xiuling meant, but he followed him anyway.
"Mom, what are we doing here?"
After walking for a long time, Leng Zhang Xiuling stopped in front of a door.
Leng Litian couldn't help but frown. This room was where the ancestors of the Leng family were placed, and usually only those who came to pay homage during the holidays.
But why did Zhang Xiuling suddenly bring herself here when there were no festivals in the past few days?
"You go in and kneel for me! Come out after you have figured it out!"
Opening the door, Leng Zhang Xiuling did not go in, but turned sideways to let Leng Litian go in by himself.
Leng Litian couldn't help but frowned. He still didn't understand what kind of medicine Leng Zhang Xiuling was selling. "Mom, what did I do wrong?"
This was not the first time for Leng Litian to be punished by kneeling at the ancestral tablet. When he was a child, his mother had punished him in this way several times when he did wrong things, but his father would usually accompany him at that time.
It's just that this time Leng Li was naive and didn't understand what he had done wrong.
"Listen to me. If you can't figure it out, don't come out. Either you marry Miss Cai family to me, or...or you leave the Leng family. The Leng family has no descendants like you!"
"Mother!"
Unexpectedly, his mother would say such words. Leng Litian was stunned and screamed uncontrollably.
"Okay, go in by yourself. Think carefully!"
"Mother!"
Not understanding what happened at all, Leng Litian looked aggrieved.
But looking at Leng Zhang Xiuling's slightly hunched back, he finally chose to go in and kneel, even though he really didn't know what he had done wrong.
"Hey, ancestors, I'm here again. But this time I really don't know what I did wrong!"
Kneeling very obediently, Leng Litian couldn't help but evoke a wry smile.
