If he could go back to four months ago, he would definitely wake up.
Everything that happened in the Ming family started from a thought he had four months ago.
First, Xiaoqi got sick from fear, then the third aunt committed suicide, and now, facing the crisis of confiscating the family and exterminating the family. Step by step, there is no room for turning around.
"Sheng'er, why are you doing this?"
After hearing his father's question, Ming Sheng said quietly: "Because, I am too self-righteous."
His eyes moved from his father to his mother, and finally looked at the huge word "Dian" on the mourning hall.
"Dad, actually it's not just now that I know that you have someone in your heart."
The fourth master was stunned.
"Perhaps you don't remember that when I was very young, you came back from having a drink and were alone in the study..."
Ming Sheng remembers that he was only seven years old at that time.
Yes, that was the year when Sanbo "died".
He often went to his father's study to play, and that day was the same. Then he saw his father crying bitterly after being drunk.
He cried and called out a name, saying sorry repeatedly.
To this day he still remembers that name is Ayu.
At that time, he was ignorant and vaguely knew that his father was thinking about someone in his heart, and that person might be a woman.
Therefore, in his eyes, it is easy to see the reasons behind many things.
For example, the father's indifference to the mother, such as the mother's sadness and resentment.
For ten years, he never mentioned it. This was not his business in the first place. How could he get involved in his parents' feelings?
Until four months ago, he came back from Beijing to celebrate the New Year.
Xiao Qi has been in poor health since she was a child, and she easily gets sick in cold and hot weather.
That day, their family had a reunion. As soon as they sat down to eat, news came from Yu Fangyuan that Xiao Qi had a fever.
My father put down the dishes and went to Zhangluo to seek medical advice.
At first Mingsheng didn't think there was a problem.
As a father, it is his responsibility to take care of his deceased brother, wife and daughter.
Until at night, when he went to find his mother, he heard her talking to Grandma Yu.
"I knew that as long as there was any disturbance in Yu Fang Yuan, he could put everything aside."
"What can I do? I have endured it for so many years, and I can only continue to endure it."
Ming Sheng realized something and secretly bribed an old nun in Yu Fangyuan to learn the third aunt's maiden name.
Yu, indeed is the character for Yu.
That day, Ming Sheng got drunk outside on the pretext of meeting his classmates.
Looking back now, I was pretty stupid at the time.
Because of these clues, he mistakenly believed that there was something ulterior between his father and his widowed sister-in-law.
But what can he do? The scandal of the elders cannot be revealed. Should he pretend that it didn't happen and let his mother continue to suffer?
It happened that he met a charlatan outside and suddenly had an idea.
He planned well. He would first create a haunting incident, and then disguise himself when the time came, pretending to be the third uncle's ghost, in order to warn the third aunt to keep her duty.
He looks like his father, but his temperament is more refined. He has been said to look like his third uncle since he was a child, so it shouldn't be difficult to disguise him.
For this reason, he took two more months off.
But who knew that something would go wrong before his plan reached the last step.
Xiao Qi was frightened and sick.
Seriously ill, almost dying.
During those days, Ming Sheng was extremely frightened.
He was afraid that something might happen to his sister, so he spent every day regretting and reflecting. He also deeply realized how childish his actions were.
It wasn't until he heard the news that Xiao Qi was getting better that he plucked up the courage to see her.
After that, it’s all those things.
"It's my fault." Mingsheng murmured, "It was me who caused this unfortunate beginning..."
Mingwei looked at him with pity: "Fourth brother did something wrong and even caused death. But this is not the beginning of misfortune. Misfortune was already doomed ten years ago, or even eighteen years ago.
Already."
Having said this, she looked at the fourth master: "Isn't that right, fourth uncle?"
The Fourth Master moved his lips but did not answer.
Mingwei didn't let him go: "You met my mother first, but you didn't dare to argue with your brother, and you just watched her marry an inhumane person. You already knew how insulted my mother was, but you stood by and watched her
Struggling in hell. Do you think that you will be fine if you finally stand up? That you will be able to wash away your sins? Can your family be reunited and live happily together in the future? If this is the case, then what is the suffering that my mother has suffered in the past ten years? To us?
What is the fate of mother and daughter?!"
As the last word fell, several gasps sounded in the mourning hall.
Mother Tong stood up with a confused look in her eyes: "Miss, are you mistaken? The fourth master...how could he be the fourth master in the first place?"
Mingwei sneered and looked at the Fourth Master: "Really, let him speak for himself! Fourth Uncle, do you dare to answer it yourself?"
The Fourth Master closed his eyes and his lips trembled violently.
After hearing these words, the Ming family members, except for the fourth lady and Ming Sheng, all showed shocked expressions.
From the old lady, to the second lady, to the sixth master and the sixth lady, everyone's eyes widened. Even the second master who fell to the ground looked confused.
He was actually the fourth child back then? Why didn't he say anything? In the early years, this was a good story in Dongning. It shows that the third master of the family was willing to help others, which led to such a happy marriage. A talented man and a beautiful woman are made in heaven.
It turns out that the inside story is that the siblings were transposed and the elder brother stole the marriage?
The fourth master's silence was tantamount to admitting this matter.
Mother Tong still couldn't accept it and said to herself: "How could this be? Don't they all say that the third son of the Ming family is humble and kind, while the fourth son is irritable and rude?"
Ming San, who was lying on the ground, showed a sarcastic smile.
"It's because everyone says so that things like this happen. Anyone who does good things belongs to the third master of the Ming family, and whoever does bad things belongs to the fourth master. But who says that irritable and rude people can't do good things?
What's more, he met a young girl and wanted to behave better in front of his sweetheart. Isn't it normal?"
"but……"
Mother Tong still couldn't accept it. She had always felt that the fourth master could not be compared with her own master, but now she was told that it was the fourth master that the third lady fell in love with?
"That's enough." The Fourth Master finally said, "It's been so long, what's the point of talking about it anymore?"
"Of course it makes sense." Ming Wei said coldly, "If I don't mention it, how can I let you know how stupid you are? If you dared to fight, would my mother marry Ming San?"
"Why not?" The fourth master was pressed by her, "Even if she really knew, what could she do to change it? The third master of Ming Dynasty is as knowledgeable and talented as the bright moon in the sky! The fourth master of Ming Dynasty has a white face that is exactly the same as his elder brother's.
His face is like an embroidered pillow and his belly is full of straw. Normal people would choose him but not me!"
Mingwei sneered: "It's because you think this way that we are here today. Ming San is not worthy of my mother, and neither are you!"
