Xue Ling's eyes dimmed when he heard this, and he didn't dare to say any more. He wanted to change the topic, but Zheng Sanyuan started talking instead.
Maybe he was looking for someone to talk to, or maybe he was expressing his own feelings. He whispered: "Over the years, I have changed too much. I have become older, and my heart has also become older."
Xue Ling looked at his gray hair and his eyes flashed slightly: "As you get older, you will naturally grow older. Your hair is slightly better than my dad's. My dad has obviously had a lot more gray hair in the past two years.
. He also said a few days ago that his hair is falling out so much that he may lose all his hair soon and become a bald old man."
Zheng Sanyuan smiled and whispered: "Brother Xue is not old. Even though he looks older, his heart is still the same. He was so cheerful and open-minded many years ago, and he is still the same now, and has not changed at all."
Having said this, he sighed quietly.
"In comparison, I am not as lucky as him. I failed to take good care of my family, my ex-wife, my son, and even my stepson..."
When he said this, he swallowed hard and soon couldn't speak anymore, so he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.
"There is still no news from Tietou, no news at all. If he hasn't come back for a day, I won't forgive that brat for a day! I almost broke off the father-son relationship with him! What kind of son did I raise!"
Seeing how excited he was, Xue Ling hurriedly advised: "Uncle Zheng, you can't be angry. The doctor told you not to be overly excited, especially not angry."
"Alas..." Zheng Sanyuan squinted his eyes and picked up the kettle on the stove to make tea, "Xiao Xue, actually I envy your father."
Xue Ling smiled slightly and asked: "Why do you envy him? Envy that he is older than you? Everyone has troubles, the world's richest man also has troubles, and the beggar on the roadside also has his troubles. Uncle Zheng, every family has difficulty reciting sutras. This sentence
What you said is not false at all. There is no need to envy anyone. In fact, many people also envy you."
Zheng Sanyuan laughed sarcastically: "What can I do to be envied? Apart from being a little successful in my career and life, I have nothing to offer. My family has been torn apart. I tried my best to repair it and keep it intact, but unexpectedly my heart is still broken. The family is broken up."
You can try to get it back together, but if your heart is broken, you will never be able to save it."
Xue Ling knew that he was blaming Zheng Datong.
When Tietou couldn't be found, Zheng Sanyuan was furious and drove Zheng Datong to live in the TV station's dormitory, emphasizing that if Tietou didn't come back for a day, he would never forgive him.
After all, Zheng Datong was young and vigorous. After being scolded by his father, he angrily said that he was his biological son and scolded his father for being partial.
Zheng Sanyuan slapped him and told him to get out.
Since then, Zheng Datong has not returned home.
Zhu Achun was kind-hearted and always advised Zheng Sanyuan to take Datong home, and also asked Xiaoyi and Duoduo to go to Datong often.
When Duoduo comes home on weekends, she will cook a lot of dishes for him to eat, and then takes some food that Datong likes and asks Duoduo to take it to the TV station to meet Datong.
During the Chinese New Year, Zhu Achun asked Cheng Tianfang to go to the TV station to find Datong and ask him to remember to go home for the Chinese New Year.
Unexpectedly, Datong did not come back. He only called Zhu Achun to wish her good health.
Cheng Tianfang said that Datong secretly cried.
Xue Ling sighed softly and whispered: "Uncle Zheng, Datong may be just confused for a moment. There is no need for you to stay angry for so long. Datong is also a good boy."
"It's a pity that he is so narrow-minded!" Zheng Sanyuan scolded: "Just like his mother, she only cares about money! I have worked hard to teach him for so many years, but I can't stand his mother's months of sowing discord! What does his mother say?
Just listen! My money will only be left to myself and Achun from now on. They can spend as much as they can earn. It is my responsibility to raise them and it is my responsibility to provide them with education. But my property does not belong to them.
I come to make arrangements and to covet! You have to rely on yourself. If you worry about my small property all day long, you will not have a big future!"
Xue Ling nodded in agreement and said: "Okay, okay, don't get excited. Blood is thicker than water. He is your biological son after all. If you treat him like this, Sister Achun will feel uncomfortable. She also loves Datong very much."
The three of them are unhappy when they see you and your son making trouble like this, and she feels uncomfortable inside. She is worried about Tietou and misses Tietou, which is already uncomfortable enough, so you should stop causing trouble for her."
Zheng Sanyuan shook his head and sighed: "Little
If I can't accept it, I will fall. I am also responsible for Tietou's departure from home."
Xue Ling whispered: "The matter is now over, and it is not the time to hold anyone responsible. Uncle Zheng, Tietou will come back sooner or later. There are still missing persons notices in newspapers and on TV. He has also been helping in Datong.
try to find."
Zheng Sanyuan said irritably: "If he doesn't look for it, how can his heart be at peace? Can he let himself live in debt and regret for the rest of his life? He has to look for it!"
"Then don't blame him anymore." Xue Ling couldn't help but remind: "You are torturing yourself and Datong. Sister Achun will feel even more uncomfortable if she is caught in the middle."
Zheng Sanyuan said in a deep voice: "There is no way, I can only do this now. If I forgive him too easily, he will not wake up. His heart is too selfish and utilitarian, I can't let him live too well, otherwise he will only live in the future.
It’s even more sad. Fortunately, he has received a high-level education. Fortunately, Tietou has lived with him for more than two years and called him big brother for so long, but he can even say such words that are worse than a pig or a dog! I am so disappointed in him! So much
Torture him a little bit so that he can wake up a little bit."
Xue Ling couldn't persuade him anymore, so he had to change the topic.
"Aren't you going to renovate the villa over at Minghu Lake? In terms of money, I think you should have no problem."
Zheng Sanyuan shook his head: "I can't spend all the money. I want to leave some money for the two of us to support ourselves in old age, and some money to keep looking for Tietou. Those TV and newspaper missing persons notices all cost money. I'll sell them
The purpose of renting out old machines and old factories is to have a stable income to save. In addition, I can have more time to look for iron heads. I really can't manage the two factories. Firstly, I am old.
I’m tired, and secondly, I don’t have time. I’ll try my best to invest the money I earn now. As long as I can find him back, I’ll be willing to spend it. The key is that he comes back safely and intact.”
Seeing his tears shining again, Xue Ling couldn't help but whisper: "If we live here, it will be more lively if we have you as neighbors."
Zheng Sanyuan nodded: "We are the only two at home now, and Duoduo only comes back on weekends. Xiaoyi is busy with classes and taking care of the children, so she doesn't come here much. After all, she is married and has her own family and children to take care of. So.
Even though we live in a large apartment, we still feel that it is too empty. Being able to be neighbors with you, and occasionally chatting and playing chess with your father will make life easier."
Xue Ling said: "Then don't decorate it yet. Anyway, the outer shell is already ready. In the future, as long as water and electricity are installed, you can live in it after decorating it inside and outside."
Zheng Sanyuan chuckled and asked: "When are you going to build a villa? The scenery over Minghu Lake is beautiful. Anyway, the building is at the other end, and there is a lot of land on the other side!"
Xue Ling shook his head and gave up: "I have no money for the time being."
Zheng Sanyuan laughed, not believing it at all.
"Boss Xue, don't be joking. This will hurt other people's self-esteem."
