Fili's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he nodded involuntarily. He really wanted to be the dean's student, a real student, instead of shamelessly attending classes again and again.
But he quickly remembered his identity, so he quickly shook his head. At a young age, he already knew how difficult life was, and he had no money to go to school.
The most important thing is that after this period of life, he clearly knows that he earns too little money now, and the money he earns cannot support himself at all. How can he come to school?
But he also realized that it would not be good if he refused other people's kindness. After thinking about it, he said cautiously: "It's not that I don't want to study, but I still need to make money.
If I come to study, I won’t have time or method to earn money to support myself. My mother said that I am already a grown-up child and I will need to earn money to support myself in the future.”
He had a somewhat timid manner when he spoke, his eyes wandering like a timid little rabbit, and he did not dare to look directly at other people. His voice was also relatively low when he spoke, and he could hardly hear clearly if he had bad ears.
Edward almost yelled when he heard this, what? Such a young child is allowed to earn money to support himself? So what does she do as a nominal mother?
The thought of his son being abused by Taisha again and again in places he couldn't see made the veins on Edward's forehead jump and his teeth grinding together. What a rotten woman!
A strong murderous intention emerged again. If Weisha was in front of him at this moment, Edward would want her to die, because he found that everything Weisha did was on his bottom line.
He really couldn't imagine how his son had been through these years. If Ling Xiao had not discovered the problem, what kind of life would his son have lived before, now and in the future?
That child will always live in ignorance, without the protection and guidance of his father, and without the care and care that his mother should give him. He will live like the lowest class of people. When he thought of this, he began to feel the pain all over his body.
Come on, air conditioning, that woman in Weisha really wants to destroy her son!
Even though Fili was a little scared when he first saw Edward, he didn't leave when Edward was cold because he didn't know why he still felt friendly.
Later, I realized that it was wrong for me to refuse the other person's kindness. Could it be because I refused Edward's help? That made the big man suddenly unhappy, so he started to feel cold.
This discovery made him a little scared, but he was not willing to accept help from others easily. You must know that the place where he used to live was the poorest place in the town, and he had seen too much right and wrong for the sake of profit.
Although he is young, he also knows that there is no free pie in the world, and he is not very willing to accept the kindness of others easily. Even Ling Xiao only became more trustworthy after he observed him for a period of time.
Feili accepted Ling Xiao very quickly, because Ling Xiao has been very upright in the eyes of the people in the town over the years. Apart from not interacting with the people in the town very much, he basically couldn't fault him. This made Feili the fastest to agree.
He fell in love with Ling Xiao, but it was different with Edward.
Even though they are biological father and son, a child who has been suppressed for many years is like a frightened bird who wants to leave as soon as he notices the slightest danger.
At this moment, Feili just brushed up next to Ling Xiao, not daring to stand up again, because the man was too angry, which made him a little scared. He rarely got warmth in life, and he was a little nervous. He looked at the obviously angry man, for fear of getting in the way.
From other people's eyes, they never imagined that Edward was being unfair to him.
After he was born, he wanted to get his mother's love and favor like any other baby, but what he got in the end was blow after blow. Even so, he didn't dare to have any thoughts of resisting his mother.
.
No matter what, the mother still gave him a place to stay. If there was no house, the little child would be afraid that he would be living on the street, and he might die in the hiding place at night.
A little child was unable to protect himself, so Fili knew very well that even though his mother's attitude towards him was not very good, he still got some protection, and he was grateful that his mother still gave him a dilapidated house.
The landlord's family didn't show much pity to Philip either. They had too many children and they couldn't take care of their own children. How could they care about a child who didn't even care about his own mother?
Fortunately, because they collected some money from Weisha and lived together for several years, although the family didn't care about Feili very much, they were not hard-hearted and made things difficult for him. They just didn't take special care of the child.
Also, how can a child who doesn't even care about his biological mother get much kindness from outsiders? It's good not to hurt him. This is what Fili has been through these years.
The past few years of life have left a deep imprint on Feili, causing him to be cautious even if he wants to reject other people's kindness, for fear of being said to be ignorant of flattery.
Edward understood, and suddenly felt a sore nose. His son lived such a humble life, and all of this was caused by Weisha, Weisha! That woman!
What qualifications did she have to change the child? And treat her own son like this, haha! Edward felt that this day was the day when he was most likely to be angry and sad.
When he saw his son, he felt sad and angry at the same time. Edward, who had been taken care of by his parents since childhood, knew very well that parents are often the most solid backing for children. Philip did not have the support of his parents.
Just like Feili was hiding next to Ling Xiao like a little rabbit at this moment, he knew at a glance that the child Feili received too little kindness and could not show his sincerity to Edward, an outsider, so quickly.
Edward felt sad when he saw it, so he stopped watching it. Anyway, with Ling Xiao around, it would definitely get better. Right now, it was better for him to be careful, as long as his son didn't hide when he saw him.
Edward's family had a hard time living on this land in their early years due to ecological and environmental problems, but compared with those who really lived at the bottom, they still lived a good life.
This is because Edward received a lot of guidance from his father, and he can be considered a man of both civil and military skills. He is one of the few educated people in this land, and he also has a certain amount of force to protect himself.
In fact, if it weren't for Edward's life experience, their family would have gone to live in other kingdoms long ago. It was only Edward's father who told his son something before he died that made Edward understand why his family ended up here.
It turned out that his father was very upset after learning about his mother. When he left, because he and his mother were angry, he did not take his mother's things as souvenirs. The only gold coins that had some connection with his mother had long been spent.
The thought of his mother becoming a mistress for him to give up herself, and then giving up her own life when he grew up, made him feel heartbroken. How could he treat the mother who gave birth to him and raised him like this? He was too narrow-minded.
.
In fact, he missed his mother a little after he left, because in his life, only his mother was unconditionally good to him. If he couldn't figure it out before, then he discovered how selfless his mother was.
It's just that he couldn't bring himself to see his mother. You must know that he was very determined when he left and felt that he did not want to see his changed mother. However, after suffering the wind and frost outside, he realized that he had lived a happy life before.
Only a few years later, he mustered up the courage to find his mother, and told her that he would come to pick her up when he became successful, and asked his mother to wait for his return, but her mother was already dead.
He couldn't accept this reality at first. Why was it like this? As a son, he had always misunderstood his mother, but when he woke up, it was too late, and his mother was already dead.
After knowing the truth, he painfully discovered the fact that perhaps life was the most painful thing for his mother. After discovering that he had the ability to support himself, his mother left with peace of mind.
When he came over in the afternoon, he wanted to find something that once belonged to his mother. After thinking about it, he remembered his mother's most cherished pendant, which was a portrait that his father had specially paid to have someone paint it.
Because my father didn’t have much money, he found a painter who wasn’t very famous. Fortunately, the pendant was not big and the painter didn’t expend too much energy, so he accepted the task. He was still very dedicated, and the portrait was really
Very expressive.
My father gave this pendant to my mother, who was still a young girl, and the two of them established a relationship. Later, my mother married my father, and they even opened the pendant and showed it to him.
Yes! Where is that pendant now? Is it in my mother's tomb? If it is buried, I will have to find another painter to paint it again.
He couldn't help but bring a bouquet of flowers to his mother's tomb. There was nothing on the tombstone, only the words left by his mother: I am leaving to another world.
When he saw the tombstone, he once again threw himself on the tombstone and cried loudly. Probably these were the last words his mother left to him. Tired of crying, he fell asleep holding the tombstone and saw his mother's portrait again.
When he woke up, he decided to look for traces of the pendant. After thinking about it, he remembered someone, that is, the elder. He always felt that he could get the answer from her.
Sure enough, he got the answer from the elder. The noble actually had a new lover a long time ago, but he was still unwilling to let Grandma Edward have her own freedom, probably out of a desire to conquer.
Women quickly give in.
Edward's grandmother was an outlier. She was completely indifferent to winning favors. She only saw her son smile a little more. She also valued the pendant given to her by her husband very much, holding it in her hand when she died.
When the nobleman found out, he took the pendant away and deliberately dressed her in gorgeous clothes and some jewelry, because he knew she didn't like it, and in this case he wanted to make her unwilling even more.
When Edward's father heard the news, he thought about opening the tomb and throwing away all the things given by the nobles, but the elders told him that the corpse in the tomb should have rotted long ago, and it was better not to disturb the peace of the deceased easily.
The elder also said: "People have physical limitations when they are alive. How can they control it after death? Clothes and jewelry are all external things. If you don't bring them with you in life, you won't take them with you in death. You don't need to pay attention at all."
Only then did Edward's father give up his thoughts. All these made him respect the elder very much. This time when there was a problem, he thought of asking for help from the elder again. He also knew that the nobleman had taken the pendant away. Think about it.
That made Edward's father angry.
He finally decided to take back his mother's pendant. Why did it fall into the hands of that noble? It belonged to his parents, and if it was to be kept, it belonged to him as his son.
After thinking about it for a while, he realized that he couldn't get into the noble's territory with his own abilities. The nobles only cared about his mother, but they always thought he was an eyesore. How could he sneak in?
What should he do? After hesitating for a while, he asked the elder for help. He felt a little ashamed when he said it, because the other party had no need to help him, but the elder actually helped him.
This gave him the opportunity to enter the noble's territory, and finally found his mother's pendant. However, he happened to bump into the noble, causing the two to fight. He seriously injured the noble and escaped.
Later, the nobleman died, so he became a wanted criminal. The nobleman implicated more nobles, and for a time he was desperate. Finally, with the help of the elders, he had to escape into the more closed Kingdom of Saint Laurent.
When they broke up, the elder told him: She had taken advantage of him. The elder and the nobles also had grudges, but she did not have the strength to take action and could not bribe others. At this time, Edward's father appeared, and the elder regarded the young man as revenge.
tools.
Edward's father was not too surprised when he heard this. He had already thought about why the other party was helping him everywhere. It was either profitable or the secret hand of the nobles, but no matter what, he still wanted to get the pendant.
, will pretend not to notice at all.
After knowing his family history, Edward never thought of leaving the territory of the Kingdom of Saint Laurent, because those nobles were vengeful, and his father only escaped with a narrow escape.
Later, because of Ling Xiao's intervention, the originally bad living environment became better again. Edward didn't want to see the so-called aristocrats anymore. Even though there were reasonable people among the aristocrats, he looked at ordinary people more as non-human beings.
Nobles are naturally unwilling to leave a place where there are no nobles.
But Edward never thought that his son would be secretly replaced. Now that he has found his son and wants him to live well, he smiled and said: "Don't worry about this!
I will find your mother and ask her to agree to your studying in the college. Being able to study with the dean is a great blessing. If you miss it this time, I don’t know if you will have the opportunity."
Edward knew very well that the later it got, the harder it would be to get guidance from Ling Xiao, so it was better to establish a good relationship early. If you could see that Ling Xiao had a good impression of his son, that would be great! He must definitely let his son and Ling Xiao learn from each other well.
.
At the same time, he was thinking about how to 'thank' Iban Weisha properly. When he thought about how many opportunities he had missed to get together with his son because of her, he wanted to thank her profusely, thinking that everything would be fine? Haha.
!What a beautiful thought!
Thinking of this, he squatted down and looked at Feili, and the child felt a little strange in his heart. Who was this strange relative? Although he didn't look easy to mess with, he could feel that the other person had good intentions.
This also made him feel a little scared, but he still looked at Edward with a bit of curiosity, especially since Ling Xiao was standing aside, making him a bit brave.
－－－－－－Digression－－－－－
Edward stretched out his hands and put them on Feili's shoulders. He felt that the child was too thin and didn't have much meat. The child at home was probably twice as heavy as this child, and the child probably wouldn't have enough to eat every day.
It was what that woman had done, and the thought of Weisha's actions made him extremely angry, with a bit of anger in his eyes. After seeing this, Fili wanted to shrink back, and Edward naturally felt it.
He quickly controlled his emotions. At this moment, he was not facing the woman Oisha, but his own son, and his eyes softened.
