After hanging up the phone from Luo Ziling, Ling Ruonan's car had already driven into Ling Mingrui's courtyard.
What surprised Ling Ruonan was that her eldest brother, Ling Zhengping, the instigator of this incident, had already arrived at Ling Mingrui's villa one step ahead of her.
Ling Zhengping is still working in Yangcheng. It is certainly impossible for a person with his position to think wherever he wants. He must report his travels and make arrangements for his work.
For a person like him who is a high-ranking official in the border areas coming to Yanjing, the procedures will definitely be more complicated.
Ling Ruonan knew that Ling Zhengping was panicking.
He didn't say anything in particular at the moment. After saying hello lightly, he entered the house.
Seeing Ling Ruonan coming over, Xie Enhua, who was helping in the kitchen, came out.
She greeted Ling Ruonan and said, "Nannan, let's sit down and talk first."
Then he pointed at Ling Zhengping, "Zhengping is also going back to Yanjing today. It's rare for our family to sit down and have a meal together."
"Mom, where's dad? He's not back yet?" Ling Ruonan sat next to Xie Enhua and said softly: "He's coming back for dinner today too?"
"Well, come back a little later." Xie Enhua said, holding Ling Ruonan's hand, "It's just the three of us here, let's talk first."
Ling Ruonan remained silent, lowered her eyes and sat up straight, not looking at anyone.
"You are all the biological children of me and your father. What we parents want to see most is harmony and mutual help among our families. No matter what, parents, children, brothers and sisters are the closest people in the world. Bloodline
The connected family relationship cannot be replaced by anything else. In terms of family relationship, Nannan does it better than anyone else. Here, I would also like to say a few words about Zhengping."
Xie Enhua said, looking seriously at Ling Zhengping who was sitting there with his head bowed: "You take your personal interests too seriously. Ruonan is your biological sister, Ziling is your nephew, your father and I are
Your grandson, before he came to Yanjing, he never met you, let alone did anything sorry to you. But how did you treat him? Who did you treat him as? You repeatedly looked down on him and insulted him.
"
"The grudges back then have long since passed, and the Yang family doesn't care about it that much anymore, but what about you? You are still brooding over this matter. Nannan's not marrying Yang Yunfeng, for you, has no impact on your life. That's right.
What you get, you can still get. But you regard your own sister as a threat. Not only do you plot against your sister, but you also want to kill your own nephew. Have you ever thought about what happens if Zi Ling is killed by you?
, will Ruonan let you go? No matter what the outcome is of fratricide, what do you want us, the old couple, to think?"
Ling Ruonan was a little surprised because she didn't expect Xie Enhua to say such things, but she immediately understood that her mother was actually acting for her when she said this.
He blamed Ling Zhengping in front of her, hoping that she could forgive her brother and resolve the matter peacefully with her parents' persuasion.
As a mother, Ling Ruonan fully understood her mother's intention of doing this. Which parent would want their children to kill each other? Seeing their own children fighting to the death, they must be more painful than anyone else.
However, Ling Zhengping had gone too far, and there was no way she would just let her go. This incident could not be solved so easily.
She also knew that if she didn't care so easily, Ling Zhengping would definitely use other methods in the future, and maybe one day they, mother and son, would be completely destroyed by him.
But before Xie Enhua finished speaking, she did not interrupt.
"Don't be interested in the Northern Group. Your father has decided to give the Northern Group to Ruonan as a dowry. The Northern Group was built by Ruonan, and it was all her hard work. Your father and I have nothing else to offer.
As a gift, I will give her the property she has built with her own efforts as a dowry." At this time, Xie Enhua was no longer the kind-hearted old mother, but had become a very majestic old matron of a large family.
The ancestor in "A Dream of Red Mansions" is even more majestic, "What you can get is much more than what Ruonan can get. If we are willing to give her, don't make up your mind. Also, if you want to get your own things, you still need Ruonan's."
Help, without the help of your own sister, do you think your chances of success will become greater or smaller? Ruonan will not compete with you for fame and status, but what about the rest of the Ling family? They will definitely compete with you. You two
Brothers and sisters, if we can work together as a team, who else do you think can threaten you?"
These words surprised both Ling Zhengping and Ling Ruonan. Neither of them expected that the old lady would understand her words to such an extent.
Xie Enhua didn't pay attention to Ling Zhengping's surprised glance and continued: "Don't underestimate that kid Zi Ling. If he were to be cruel, you, the uncle, might have died a long time ago. He and Ruonan both knew that.
, you, my uncle, have tried to kill him several times. If he doesn't consider family ties, doesn't look at the face of us two old people and Ruonan, and kills you cruelly, it is entirely possible. Even if you are not
The relationship between brother, sister, uncle and nephew is just a relationship between ordinary people, and you have to keep a straight line. If you make a mistake once, you will not learn a lesson, and you will cause trouble again. If this matter spreads, do you think you can keep your current status? Not only
If you destroy yourself, the entire Ling family will be dragged down by you."
After saying this, Xie Enhua turned to look at Ling Ruonan: "Ruonan still knows the basics. There is no publicity about such things. Come here to ask for our ideas first. Don't say it. If you have half of Ruonan's thoughts,
You won't do such stupid things. Nan Nan, just say a few words. If you want to scold your brother, just scold him. Mom will make the decision for you. If you want to make any request, just ask him. Don't be afraid of embarrassing him.
.He will do such shameful things, so don’t worry about his face.”
Ling Ruonan sighed inwardly. She knew that her parents still favored Ling Zhengping.
Although these words were meant to accuse Ling Zhengping and speak for her, the most substantial thing was that he hoped she would make some demands.
Once you meet the requirements, don't worry about it.
Ling Zhengping's punishment was basically three drinks of wine.
But she can also understand why her parents do what they do.
After all, Ling Zhengping is their son. No matter how society progresses, the status of men in the family will definitely be higher than that of women. Women have to marry outside and become members of other families, but men will not. Therefore, no matter what matters, the status of men in the family will always be higher than that of women.
I will prefer my son.
Today, Xie Enhua held it up high and put it down gently. This is what he had in mind.
She believed that Xie Enhua knew that she would understand the reason, and that when Ling Mingrui came back later, she would have the same meaning.
However, she was still unwilling to express her position on this matter easily, so she replied to Xie Enhua in a neither soft nor hard tone: "I'll listen to what Zheng Ping has to say." (To be continued)
