Reborn Petty Citizen
Chapter 55
Du Xingzhi's grandfather, Zhang Dexuan, is about to retire. Although he still holds a lot of power, the focus of his career has been on promoting the sons and daughters of the family.Du Xingzhi's eldest uncle, Zhang Huai, is currently working in Xinjiang, while his second uncle has gone to Shaanxi.Apart from the old couple, there are only Du Xingzhi's two aunts and uncles who are at home all year round.
In fact, they all have their own careers. Even the least outstanding little aunt is teaching at a university. Will such a person have no house in Beijing?Impossible. As for why they are willing to live in their mother's house where they look up but don't look down, the purpose is naturally different.
In short, when Zhang Su brought Du Xingzhi to Zhang's house, Du's father, Du Rusong, had already entered the house. Outside the compound, Du Xingzhi recognized his father's car with a Huaixing license plate. As soon as he entered the house, he was greeted by the nanny with a strange look.
In the living room, Du Rusong was sitting in the guest seat, holding a cup of hot tea that had just been brewed, hunched his back and whispered to the person opposite the coffee table.He wore a black suit, neat and unrestrained, with the same demeanor.There was an army green overcoat hanging on the coat rack in the entrance, which seemed to belong to him too, but it was an old piece of clothing that had been worn many times.
Sitting opposite Du Rusong were Du Xingzhi's aunts and their husbands. Zhang Su was the third child, and the first two brothers were younger sisters. Everyone had already formed a family. The only son, the eldest uncle’s son is Zhang Jingyu, who is much older than Du Xingzhi, and now works in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Du Xingzhi’s aunt has a 22-year-old daughter named Zhu Yan, and the younger aunt’s son Wu Wangpeng is still studying abroad and has not returned to China. It is also business.
Du Xingzhi had a bad impression of these two aunts. Ever since his mother brought him to the Zhang family, Du Xingzhi hadn't felt any kindness from them to his family, including the two uncles. He always looks down on himself with a sense of aloofness.
Du Xingzhi didn't have the intention to bear the burden of humiliation and begging, so naturally he was very concerned about it. Now that they entertained Du Rusong who had divorced Zhang Su with such an amiable attitude, he immediately noticed the weirdness in it.
Aunt Zhang Qiao was facing the direction of the gate. Seeing Zhang Su and Du Xingzhi coming, her eyes lit up and she waved her hands again and again: "It's considered to be here! My second sister and I saw that my brother-in-law was waiting outside with the cold wind for a long time. He invited him in for a cup of tea and chatted for a while." As if she didn't realize that there was something wrong with calling Du Rusong her brother-in-law, the aunt stood up and took Zhang Su's arm, brought her to the table, and looked at Du Rusong who was sitting. The guest seat pushed over, "Elder sister, sit down quickly, stop! You sit too! Mama Wang, please pour us two cups of tea!"
Winking at her husband who was sitting next to Du Rusong, Du Xingzhi's little uncle immediately gave way to a seat for one person and invited Zhang Su to sit down.Zhang Su was dragged by the arm to look around, there was no room for this guest sofa except for this empty seat, and Du Rusong was also looking up at her, his eyes full of expectations.
With a cold snort in her heart, she also understood the intentions of her sisters, and managed to break away from Zhang Qiao's palm with a clever effort. Zhang Su's figure flashed, and she sat down on the main sofa left behind by Zhang Qiao.
The atmosphere at the scene froze suddenly, and Zhang Qiao's face froze, probably because she didn't expect that Zhang Su would not save face for her like this, and a flash of anger flashed in her eyes.But it was only for a moment, and then she happily sat down on the empty seat her husband gave up, next to Du Rusong, as if she didn't notice anything strange.
Du Rusong's heart twitched, a little disappointed and a little surprised.He has not seen Zhang Su for several years. Before coming here, he imagined the possible changes in Zhang Su in these years. The years have left a deep imprint on him. The metabolism of middle-aged people is destined to prevent them from staying young forever. Zhang Su might be like Dou Shunjuan with dark yellow skin and deep wrinkles at the corners of the eyes, maybe he would get fat and have an ugly belly like himself, but he never thought that Zhang Su would look like this.
She was wearing a light gray cashmere coat that was well-cut and well-priced, with a slim waist drawn out.Inside is a simple black turtleneck sweater, and the fitted knit draws out her slender and elegant neck.Her skin was as fair as ever, even showing almost transparent radiance because of the plump cheeks, her eyes were deep and powerful, her eyebrows were slender and delicate, her lips were perfectly shaped with bright red lipstick, and their arcs were slightly upturned.
This is a woman who will attract men to look back even if she walks on the street. With her own superior external conditions and the taste left over from time, she looks full of charm and unattainable.Even Du Rusong, who used to share the bed with her, couldn't help feeling a kind of timidity stemming from self-ashamedness at this moment.
Before coming here, he had rehearsed many times of hypocritical compliments in his heart, Du Rusong opened and closed his mouth, and finally choked out a sentence: "Long time no see."
Zhang Su raised her head and looked at him coldly: "Yes."
Du Xingzhi sat on the chair that the nanny moved next to his mother's sofa, turned his head to thank him, and then looked at Du Rusong with his mother.The doubts in his heart have never been erased for a moment, what is he doing here?Is it my own idea or the inspiration of others, why is Zhang family's authority so scruples in the past and now it has entered the room again.Looking carefully at his father's clothes, he couldn't help frowning. The suit on Du Rusong was custom-made abroad before the divorce, and Du Xingzhi still remembered the yellow inner needle on the collar.In his impression, Du Rusong is a person who loves style, and purchases new clothes on a regular basis every season, and the old clothes are put on hold for storage, which has almost lost its usefulness since then.But the old suit he was wearing and the old overcoat hanging by the door no doubt no longer conveyed a message to Du Xingzhi - Du Rusong's financial situation was not optimistic.
But how is this possible?Du Xingzhi still remembers the crowds of gift-giving people coming and going from his home during the holidays. Since he could remember when he was young, the number of people who came to visit gradually increased every year, and the things they brought became more and more valuable every year.
At first, it was only special fruits and vegetables, but then it was replaced by cigarettes and fine wine. When he got older, the standard of tobacco and alcohol increased to an unbelievably high brand and quantity, and the gifts at the door were replaced by gold, silver, Buddha statues, jade Ruyi, etc. Du Xingzhi even remembered A fat man sent a bright diamond ring in a green velvet box. Of course, the ring was not worn on his mother's finger in the end. In short, it is absolutely impossible for Du Rusong to be short of money under such circumstances.
Is that a pretentious trick?Du Xingzhi frowned, not sure if his father's inflated self-esteem allowed him to use this tactic.He didn't think about Du Rusong's downfall at all. Zhang Su is an open-minded person. She never talked to anyone about the reason for the divorce. Why bother to let them be furious about this again, brooding over their daughter's grievances?
It is impossible for the Zhang family to take revenge on Du Rusong. In that small city of Huaixing, Du Rusong has connections and foundations. Even if he was about to collapse, how could it happen in just a few years?
Zhang Qiao's crisp voice echoed in the room: "I still remember when you were chasing my sister, brother-in-law. I was still young in those years. Looking at the two of you, I really felt that it was like a match made in heaven as said in the book. In the end, you really It's done, although my parents are against it, but I also think they are too old-fashioned, at that time they were worried that you would wrong the eldest sister if you were not well-off, but now, aren't you also a successful person?"
The words "successful people" are not empty words when they come out of Zhang Qiao's mouth.Since she was a child, she had a poor brain and was not very good at reading. Her EQ and IQ were not as high as those of her older brothers and sisters at home. Her older brothers, sisters and even her parents are more tolerant of her, and such a resume can also be brought into the university. Although she does not teach and educate people, she manages the professors who teach and educate people in the school.But even so, her achievements are still not comparable to any relatives in the family, not to mention the two older brothers who have stepped into the political arena now, Zhang Su who created a popular domestic clothing brand in just a few years with bare hands, and married The second sister Zhang Zhen, who is famous in the jewelry industry, is not comparable to Du Rusong, who is the leader of the court in the provincial capital city. Although the married husband also plays tricks, but in the city of Beijing, where a brick can hit a third-rank official It is really unknown, if not for the support of his father who is not old, Zhang Qiao's life would definitely not be as leisurely as it is now.
It's been decades, and it's the first time I've heard praise from Zhang Su's family. I recalled the swearing from Mr. Zhang when he almost poked his cane into his eyes. Still a little more ironing.Zhang Qiao saw that her expression was relaxed, while Zhang Su's expression was still so cold, and a strange light flashed in her eyes.
They don't know much about the truth about Zhang Su's divorce.Ever since Zhang Su eloped and left the Zhang family to follow Du Rusong to another city, she seldom paid attention to the eldest sister's movements.In the first few years, she could vaguely tell from her father's occasional words that her eldest sister's life was not satisfactory, and she seemed to be very poor. Later, life probably got better, and her father's attention to Huaixing was gradually weakening year after year. In the end, the mother and the elder sister got in touch, and the misunderstanding between the mother and daughter was gradually eliminated. According to Zhang Su's urgency of reporting good news but not worrying, Mr. Zhang's attention on Huaixing was gradually withdrawn.
As a result, the eldest sister came back suddenly, bringing back the big news that she was divorced, and stepped back to the Zhang family, where the atmosphere had changed, when her father was about to retire, and brought Du Xingzhi, an adult son, with her.It's good news for the two males of the Zhang family, but it's really not good news for the daughters.
The elder brothers have gradually broken out of their own world, but their daughters are more attached to their husband's family. Mr. Zhang's assets are only so small, and if one more person divides them up, the profit will be less. Who would welcome this 20-year-old man? What about the clean eldest sister who hasn't seen her feelings for years?
Especially Zhang Qiao, she still remembers the bleak days when she was shrouded in the halo of her two sisters when she was young, even now Zhang Su is better than her, everything in the Zhang family may be dispensable to Zhang Su, but For her, Zhang Qiao, it was of extraordinary significance.
Zhang Su's return brought back two big mouths waiting to be fed. Zhang Qiao, who was already in crisis, had to guard against it.But now, there may be a chance to invite the eldest sister back to the small town where she lived thousands of miles away.
Zhang Qiao tried her best to enliven the atmosphere, trying to make the silent Zhang Su speak out, and Zhang Zhen, who was silent at the side, also joined in, sang along with each other, and quickly chatted with Du Rusong in full swing.
Zhang Su looked at the two younger sisters coldly, she understood their rejection early in the morning, but this is her home, even if she elopes a hundred times, as long as her parents are willing to forgive, there will be a place for Zhang Su!Except for her elderly parents and her son who was neglected since childhood, Zhang Su asked herself that she never owed anyone, including her brothers and sisters. What right did they have to not allow her to go home?Just because of his father's money, can family affection be wiped out so cleanly?Who cares about those treasures that they regard as their lifelines!
However, even if she said such words clearly, no one would believe them.Mr. Zhang loves antiques. The treasures at home rely on his accumulation over the years. A painting, a bowl, and a statue may be priceless. Even if Zhang Su has her own business now, it is only a start-up company after all. Who can trust her? Will you not covet the huge wealth at your fingertips?
Encouraged by the two younger sisters, Zhang Su noticed that Du Rusong's breathing was getting heavier and his neck was slowly turning red, and he clenched his fists as if making a very important decision.He suddenly stood up, looked directly at Zhang Su, and knelt down on one knee with a plop.
In the astonished gaze, Du Rusong stared at Zhang Su as if he was going all out: "Honey, I came to you today to have a word with you."
Zhang Su lowered his eyes, and was surprised to find that his out-of-the-way action didn't stir up any waves in his heart.
"I regret it," Du Rusong continued, his eyes turned red and his voice was choked with sobs. "Without you by my side, I can't eat well and sleep well. My heart seems to be empty. I always thought you were just a little girl to me." It is dispensable, but after I really lost you, it was like being cut off my limbs, and I couldn't bear the pain. Come back to me!"
This passage is true or false, and it is naturally from the heart.He really regretted it, and realized that what he really loved in his heart was still this warm fire rose. Zhang Su's flamboyance and hotness all left a deep and wonderful memory in his memory. After Zhang Su left, his heart was annihilated like a tsunami like a raging wave.I don't know when it started, but when he saw Dou Shunjuan, all he had in his heart was the hatred for the other party breaking his marriage.
He knew that he must be at fault, but so what?Men who do not make mistakes?There is an old saying that the prodigal son will not change his money when he turns back, not to mention that if Dou Shunjuan hadn't followed him with a stern face in the past, how could he not be able to restrain himself from making such a mistake?Now he has turned his head back, but Dou Shunjuan is still nostalgic. Du Rusong asked himself that he would not give her any chance, and when he reunited with Zhang Su, he would definitely send Dou Shunjuan away.In such a small place like Huaixing, even if he is not as good as before, it is easy to deal with a rootless person like Dou Shunjuan, but the premise of everything is that Zhang Su is willing to forgive him.
Du Rusong is not sure whether he will succeed, but he firmly believes that sincerity can move the sky.What's more, Zhang Su has shared the same bed with him for decades, and his love for him used to be almost as real. When he was obsessed with Dou Shunjuan and refused to go home, Zhang Su's painstaking efforts to persuade Dou Shunjuan to stay are still vivid in his memory. A few years will obliterate this unforgettable love.
He looked up at Zhang Su, time didn't leave much obvious marks on this woman, compared with Dou Shunjuan, Zhang Su was a woman enough to stand by his side.She is noble, generous, elegant and beautiful, and she is impeccable in every aspect. Why did he agree to the divorce back then?For several years, Du Rusong questioned himself so unbelievably.
"Come back," he raised his head and looked up at Zhang Suyi's beautiful face who fell in love with him at first sight when he rode a horse on the first day he first met. As a family, we can drink our daughter-in-law’s over-the-door tea together, bring our grandchildren together, and do many, many things together. I’ve reformed myself, so give me a chance.”
If these words were put in the past, Zhang Suzhi might be moved to cry.But if I don’t feel it, I just don’t feel it. How sincere and sweet Du Rusong said, in Zhang Su’s heart, it is no different from the strike-ups of strangers who can be seen everywhere on the street. She frowned and wanted to reject him decisively, but this expression was rejected. Zhang Qiao quickly caught it.
Zhang Qiao's heart sank, she jumped up and hugged Zhang Su's arm, wiped her tears and said, "Eldest sister, brother-in-law apologized like this, just give him a chance."
Zhang Qiao's husband Wu Dachou also chimed in: "Yes, big sister, I'm a man and I can understand Brother Song's heart. Which man didn't make mistakes when he was young? I also made mistakes. Qiaoqiao forgave me very generously. If I Said, you still have a long way to go, how many years have you been married now? Good things take time, so don't pay too much attention to past mistakes. "
Zhang Su's eldest sister, Zhang Zhen, also interjected: "Sister, you should think about it for the sake of brother-in-law's willingness to give up your dignity in order to save you."
His husband Zhu Lian didn't seem to want to speak at first, but seeing that everyone in the room began to express their opinions, he immediately stood by his wife's side and gave advice that was similar to Wu Dachou's.
Except for Du Xingzhi and the nanny who was far away, almost everyone in the room was oppressing Zhang Su with hopeful eyes.
Zhang Su's hands began to tremble. Her family formed an alliance with the man who had hurt her and was forcing her to jump into the fire pit again.She swallowed, without showing the slightest tired expression on her face, but turned her head and asked Du Xingzhi: "What about you? How do you think I should choose?"
Du Rusong was overjoyed when he heard these words that seemed to be loosened, and he handed them to Du Xingzhi with gratified eyes.Du Xingzhi glanced at him, and looked at his mother seriously: "As long as you are happy, I will not blame you for whatever choice you make."
Du Rusong frowned, and stared at Du Xingzhi in disbelief. The subtext of this sentence was that he supported his mother in refusing to get back together with his father?This unfilial bastard!
However, Zhang Su felt relieved when he got the answer, yes, why should he care about these people?As long as the son is on his side and supports him all the time, that's enough.
Her disappointment was swept away, and the injury in her eyes was slowly hidden. Looking at the two younger sisters who grew up together, Zhang Su sighed softly: "I know what you are worried about."
As soon as these words came out, both Zhang Qiao and Zhang Zhen's expressions changed.
However, Zhang Su didn't play tricks with them anymore. She bluntly picked out the dirtiest side of them buried in their hearts and manipulated them nakedly: "I just want to tell you, draw me out for any purpose." There is no need in Beijing. It doesn’t make any difference whether I am here or not. I don’t want the things you fancy. I stay in Beijing to develop my work and take care of my parents. Believe it or not, that’s what I think .”
She was a little incoherent, but she was still annoyed.She watched the two younger sisters grow up, and the childhood relationship can be said to be quite good. When she went abroad to study, she would bring a large bag full of gifts and candies to the younger sisters every year when she went home for the New Year. A younger sister, she used to do her best.
However, the separation of more than 20 years has caused too much consequences after all. The gap between family members has become so large that it is difficult to ignore. In the past, she thought that she could escape the turbulence by keeping a low profile, but at this moment she found that staying in her own I am afraid that the eyes from the younger sisters on her body have never been kind for a moment.
So let's just talk about it, it's a thorn buried in my heart, and it's uncomfortable to be suspicious of anyone.
Zhang Qiao and Zhang Zhen were both very embarrassed when the emperor's new clothes were torn apart. Zhang Qiao didn't know how to pretend. It’s just that it’s a pity to give up the marriage of more than 20 years, so I persuade you. At the beginning, you and your brother-in-law had a big fight because of being together, which is not worse than returning the princess. Now, because of a little conflict, you are old and dead. Don't you think it's a pity to communicate?"
Zhang Su shook his head, and looked at Zhang Zhen, who was silent but had the same expression in his eyes. He couldn't help but sigh that the nine sons of Longsheng are different. Zhang Zhen is only two years older than Zhang Qiao, but Zhang Qiao's skill in disguise is beyond the reach of Zhang Qiao. .
Now that Du Rusong is at home, she is not in the mood to shift the conflict to her family. Seeing that her two sisters and brother-in-law have been silenced by her words, Zhang Su sneered and pointed the finger at Du Rusong: "Tell them that we divorced because A little conflict?"
Du Rusong moved his knees a little uneasily, the cold air of the hard floor tiles penetrated through the cracks in the bones, and even his heart seemed to be frozen.With a blue face, he whispered, "But I already knew I was wrong..."
Zhang Su ignored him, and deliberately amplified his voice: "You have been with Dou Shunjuan since you got married, bought her a house, a car, arranged a job, and had children with her. Now you have granddaughters, you tell them this is a small mistake ?”
Zhang Zhen and Zhang Qiao were startled when they heard the news. Thinking of Du Rusong's faltering attitude towards the reason for the divorce just now, they felt a chill in their hearts—the persuasion just now might have had the opposite effect, and even they might suffer. implicated.
Sure enough, after hearing Zhang Su's questioning, Du Rusong immediately lost his temper. After a long silence, he mustered up his courage and said, "As long as you are willing to go back with me, I will definitely send Dou Shunjuan away. I have already sent Du Yuan away." I went to her hometown, and I will have nothing to do with me in the future, so I will treat it as if I don’t have this daughter. I have taken away the house and car given to Dou Shunjuan, and I will not give her any money now. Isn’t that enough? Then as long as you Go back, how do you want to deal with them, I will never say anything!"
Frightened by his thinness, Zhang Su couldn't understand why he had taken a fancy to him in the past. Even Dou Shunjuan, who had followed him for so long and didn't want to be named for him to have children, he could abandon Dou Shunjuan in such an understatement. What about your own?If there is no support from the huge Zhang family behind him, is he also the role in his heart that can be "disposed by others" at any time?
At this moment, Zhang Su finally put aside all the old feelings in the past.If such a man is still nostalgic, it is the rhythm of death!
She stood up quickly and shouted towards the kitchen: "Mother Wang, go outside and inform the guards for me, come in and ask Mr. Du to leave."
After she finished speaking, she ignored Du Xingzhi's stunned and shocked eyes and lowered her head to stare into his eyes with a sneer: "I am the daughter of the Zhang family. I was assassinated again by the trap I fell into."
She smiled in relief, and was finally able to let go of her hatred and regard this man as a complete stranger. It is not worthwhile to suffer for such a heartless man for decades of youth. She should be glad that she got away early. .
However, before going to call for the guards, Mother Wang who opened the door screamed, and immediately lowered her head and whispered, "Mr., you are back."
Everyone in the room was attracted by these words, including Du Rusong who was kneeling on the ground, all eyes were on the door.
Zhang Dexuan gave a hum, and walked in steadily with a leading crutch that was almost an ornament. He passed the silent mother Wang, and his sharp gaze swept across the people in the room. Under a burst of low pressure, he suddenly stomped on the crutch: " Nonsense!!"
His voice was thick and loud like thunder in his ears, and even Du Xingzhi couldn't help frowning—a leader who has been a leader all his life, his aura is really different from ordinary people.
Zhang Dexuan stared at Zhang Su, and when Zhang Su thought he would scold him, he opened his mouth and scolded: "The children of my Zhang family will not turn their backs unless they are good horses, and they will not swallow their stomachs when they are wronged! Why don't you tell Dad What did he do? Do you think that Dad will not be able to bear these blows when he is old? If I told Dad earlier, this bastard would never have the opportunity to harass you in Beijing again, carrying it alone, thinking that he is omnipotent ?"
"And you!" Looking past Zhang Su, he fell on the faces of Zhang Zhen and Zhang Qiao. There was a swelling anger in his heart, which originated from his disappointment with his children who didn't care about family affection. "What are you thinking, passers-by?" We all know! Let an outsider see the jokes of our Zhang family for the sake of small profits! The future is great! Push your eldest sister into the fire pit!?"
Zhang Dexuan has always been a strict father image at home, and his accumulation of authority from childhood to adulthood has made his authority in the hearts of his children deeply ingrained.As soon as this remark came out, even Zhang Zhen, who was excellent at pretending, turned pale, Zhang Qiao was so frightened that his legs trembled, and the two of them lowered their heads and dared not even say a word.
The old man is not stupid, everyone knows he is not.He can occupy a place among the black-eyed chicken-like politicians fighting outside, and his wisdom will only be deeper than the children at home.He just pretended not to understand and didn't care about many things, so how could he really know nothing?In the past, he pretended to be stupid and deceived everyone, but now Zhang Zhen and Zhang Qiao realized that the old man's eyes might have fallen into his secret fighting skills.
This is undoubtedly a bolt from the blue, plus they persuaded Zhang Su and Du Rusong to remarry today, it is self-evident how dark they will leave in the old man's heart!
Zhang Zhen gritted his teeth fiercely, too anxious!These days, she still wants to entrust her family to solve some crucial problems for her husband. Once this incident happens, the angry old man may not even listen to her request!It's all Du Rusong's fault. If he hadn't fooled everyone with his nonsense, why would they have persuaded Zhang Su indiscriminately? !
Zhang Qiao's fingertips trembled, and she almost cried from her father's yelling, her eyes turned black in bursts.She regretted to death why she got involved in this kind of thing, and was bumped into by the old man, was she really afraid of something?
Zhang Su's eyes turned red with emotion, never expecting that his father, who cares most about face, would think of himself so much.Remembering how she used to fight against Du Rusong in every possible way in order to marry Du Rusong, and finally even walked away, she couldn't help feeling sore in her nose, and almost shed tears.
Zhang Dexuan looked at his rarely seen eldest daughter who was showing weakness, and sighed in his heart that fate is tricking people, and then his tone became harder.The gaze he stared at Du Rusong almost burned a pair of holes in his body!Du Rusong's original kneeling on one knee had already been forced to his knees by the powerful majesty, and he huddled into a ball in embarrassment, wishing to use his head to reduce his sense of existence.
He himself thought he had figured out the psychology of his father-in-law...or the former father-in-law.In the past, he obstructed his and Zhang Su's wedding in every possible way. Didn't he just feel that he was a poor boy and that it would be embarrassing for his daughter to marry him?Such a face-saving person must not tolerate the fact that his daughter is divorced. If he is willing to remarry, this old man should be the first person to vote in favor, but he never expected that what awaits him will be such a direct anger .
Shoot yourself in the foot.This line of blood-red characters emerged in Du Rusong's heart, and his intestines were turning blue with regret.
He tremblingly opened his mouth to say something, but Zhang Dexuan's eyes sharpened, and he turned around and shouted: "Guards! Guards! Drag him out for me!!"
The two soldiers ran in, saluted Zhang Dexuan one by one, then ran to Du Rusong's side and clasped their shoulders one by one, and lifted Du Rusong up, who had weak legs and feet.
Their hands are very strong, as hard and powerful as steel claws. When they clasped their shoulders, Du Rusong shivered in pain and subconsciously wanted to ask for mercy, but before he opened his mouth to speak, the scene in front of him was overwhelming. suddenly changed.From the warm living room like spring to the biting cold outdoor.
Being unceremoniously "invited" out of the gate, Brother Bing didn't even bother to talk to him, turned around and left.
Du Rusong wanted to break in again, but he heard two crisp clicks of the gun being loaded, and the two black barrels were aimed at his head.
Inside the house, Zhang Dexuan lost his temper at the two younger daughters, scolding them for not knowing that the eldest sister Youai is obsessed with seeing profit and forgetting righteousness. She is a mother if she has milk. After scolding the eldest son-in-law's chubby head into a layer of bean-sized sweat, he would not stop, and finally added a heavy cold snort.
Zhang Zhen and Zhang Qiao didn't even dare to look at Zhang Su's face anymore. The old man said "Get out", and they ran out of the house with their tails between their husbands. After smelling the air outside the house, they suddenly fell deeply. Take a breath and come alive!
But Zhang Su in the room really had the courage to express his grievances. The unhappiness and resentment in the past have disappeared in this second.She flung herself into her father's chest, which she had never felt before, and cried bitterly regardless of his expression.
Zhang Dexuan, who had never been so close to his children, immediately changed his expression to O^O, his majestic goat beard was up and down, and he looked like he wanted to curse, but he opened and closed his mouth for a long time, but he still didn't make a sound, just handed the crutch to Du Xingzhi took it, stretched out his hand, and hugged his daughter vaguely.
This eldest daughter, young and precociously intelligent, has endured too much suffering.It is also because he owes too much as a father.Zhang Dexuan once had a headache for his daughter insisting on being with Du Rusong, and even went to a psychiatrist for help. The psychiatrist explained to him that growing up in a patriarchal family, Zhang Su had never felt normal paternal love since he was a child. There is a man who is especially tender to her, and she will be greedy for this kind of psychological satisfaction and cannot extricate herself.
Zhang Dexuan regretted it at that time, but he has never been a gentle person, and there is an indelible impulse in his personality. Once he is angry, he will speak out without choice. How easy is it to change?
It was him who owed the love that his daughter should have received since childhood...
Zhang Dexuan blinked back his tears, he was a majestic grandfather in front of his grandson.When he took a closer look at Du Xingzhi, who was still staring at him, he immediately became angry, and shouted shyly and shyly: "What are you looking at! Why don't you hurry up and comfort your mother!? Bastard boy!"
Du Xingzhi's brows twitched when he was scolded innocently, and he leaned back a little inexplicably.But he didn't grow up beside Zhang Dexuan, so naturally he wasn't afraid of him. After putting the crutch back into Zhang Dexuan's hand, he took out the handkerchief in his pocket and stuffed it to his mother, and said in a firm voice: "A lot of old people, don't Cried."
Zhang Dexuan held the crutch that was forced in, stared at Du Xingzhi's behavior as if he was coaxing his daughter, and felt relieved again.
There is no gentle father, and now there is a mature son who can take care of her. The daughter's suffering is indeed temporary, and she will surely enjoy inexhaustible blessings in her old age.
The goat beard turned up, and Zhang Dexuan had praise and pride in his grandson in his eyes. He patted Du Xingzhi on the shoulder, and praised for the first time: "You are very good, unlike your father, you are a boy with a conscience."
Du Xingzhi looked back at this inexplicable grandfather, always feeling that the majesty he could vaguely feel just now was actually just an illusion.
In fact, they all have their own careers. Even the least outstanding little aunt is teaching at a university. Will such a person have no house in Beijing?Impossible. As for why they are willing to live in their mother's house where they look up but don't look down, the purpose is naturally different.
In short, when Zhang Su brought Du Xingzhi to Zhang's house, Du's father, Du Rusong, had already entered the house. Outside the compound, Du Xingzhi recognized his father's car with a Huaixing license plate. As soon as he entered the house, he was greeted by the nanny with a strange look.
In the living room, Du Rusong was sitting in the guest seat, holding a cup of hot tea that had just been brewed, hunched his back and whispered to the person opposite the coffee table.He wore a black suit, neat and unrestrained, with the same demeanor.There was an army green overcoat hanging on the coat rack in the entrance, which seemed to belong to him too, but it was an old piece of clothing that had been worn many times.
Sitting opposite Du Rusong were Du Xingzhi's aunts and their husbands. Zhang Su was the third child, and the first two brothers were younger sisters. Everyone had already formed a family. The only son, the eldest uncle’s son is Zhang Jingyu, who is much older than Du Xingzhi, and now works in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Du Xingzhi’s aunt has a 22-year-old daughter named Zhu Yan, and the younger aunt’s son Wu Wangpeng is still studying abroad and has not returned to China. It is also business.
Du Xingzhi had a bad impression of these two aunts. Ever since his mother brought him to the Zhang family, Du Xingzhi hadn't felt any kindness from them to his family, including the two uncles. He always looks down on himself with a sense of aloofness.
Du Xingzhi didn't have the intention to bear the burden of humiliation and begging, so naturally he was very concerned about it. Now that they entertained Du Rusong who had divorced Zhang Su with such an amiable attitude, he immediately noticed the weirdness in it.
Aunt Zhang Qiao was facing the direction of the gate. Seeing Zhang Su and Du Xingzhi coming, her eyes lit up and she waved her hands again and again: "It's considered to be here! My second sister and I saw that my brother-in-law was waiting outside with the cold wind for a long time. He invited him in for a cup of tea and chatted for a while." As if she didn't realize that there was something wrong with calling Du Rusong her brother-in-law, the aunt stood up and took Zhang Su's arm, brought her to the table, and looked at Du Rusong who was sitting. The guest seat pushed over, "Elder sister, sit down quickly, stop! You sit too! Mama Wang, please pour us two cups of tea!"
Winking at her husband who was sitting next to Du Rusong, Du Xingzhi's little uncle immediately gave way to a seat for one person and invited Zhang Su to sit down.Zhang Su was dragged by the arm to look around, there was no room for this guest sofa except for this empty seat, and Du Rusong was also looking up at her, his eyes full of expectations.
With a cold snort in her heart, she also understood the intentions of her sisters, and managed to break away from Zhang Qiao's palm with a clever effort. Zhang Su's figure flashed, and she sat down on the main sofa left behind by Zhang Qiao.
The atmosphere at the scene froze suddenly, and Zhang Qiao's face froze, probably because she didn't expect that Zhang Su would not save face for her like this, and a flash of anger flashed in her eyes.But it was only for a moment, and then she happily sat down on the empty seat her husband gave up, next to Du Rusong, as if she didn't notice anything strange.
Du Rusong's heart twitched, a little disappointed and a little surprised.He has not seen Zhang Su for several years. Before coming here, he imagined the possible changes in Zhang Su in these years. The years have left a deep imprint on him. The metabolism of middle-aged people is destined to prevent them from staying young forever. Zhang Su might be like Dou Shunjuan with dark yellow skin and deep wrinkles at the corners of the eyes, maybe he would get fat and have an ugly belly like himself, but he never thought that Zhang Su would look like this.
She was wearing a light gray cashmere coat that was well-cut and well-priced, with a slim waist drawn out.Inside is a simple black turtleneck sweater, and the fitted knit draws out her slender and elegant neck.Her skin was as fair as ever, even showing almost transparent radiance because of the plump cheeks, her eyes were deep and powerful, her eyebrows were slender and delicate, her lips were perfectly shaped with bright red lipstick, and their arcs were slightly upturned.
This is a woman who will attract men to look back even if she walks on the street. With her own superior external conditions and the taste left over from time, she looks full of charm and unattainable.Even Du Rusong, who used to share the bed with her, couldn't help feeling a kind of timidity stemming from self-ashamedness at this moment.
Before coming here, he had rehearsed many times of hypocritical compliments in his heart, Du Rusong opened and closed his mouth, and finally choked out a sentence: "Long time no see."
Zhang Su raised her head and looked at him coldly: "Yes."
Du Xingzhi sat on the chair that the nanny moved next to his mother's sofa, turned his head to thank him, and then looked at Du Rusong with his mother.The doubts in his heart have never been erased for a moment, what is he doing here?Is it my own idea or the inspiration of others, why is Zhang family's authority so scruples in the past and now it has entered the room again.Looking carefully at his father's clothes, he couldn't help frowning. The suit on Du Rusong was custom-made abroad before the divorce, and Du Xingzhi still remembered the yellow inner needle on the collar.In his impression, Du Rusong is a person who loves style, and purchases new clothes on a regular basis every season, and the old clothes are put on hold for storage, which has almost lost its usefulness since then.But the old suit he was wearing and the old overcoat hanging by the door no doubt no longer conveyed a message to Du Xingzhi - Du Rusong's financial situation was not optimistic.
But how is this possible?Du Xingzhi still remembers the crowds of gift-giving people coming and going from his home during the holidays. Since he could remember when he was young, the number of people who came to visit gradually increased every year, and the things they brought became more and more valuable every year.
At first, it was only special fruits and vegetables, but then it was replaced by cigarettes and fine wine. When he got older, the standard of tobacco and alcohol increased to an unbelievably high brand and quantity, and the gifts at the door were replaced by gold, silver, Buddha statues, jade Ruyi, etc. Du Xingzhi even remembered A fat man sent a bright diamond ring in a green velvet box. Of course, the ring was not worn on his mother's finger in the end. In short, it is absolutely impossible for Du Rusong to be short of money under such circumstances.
Is that a pretentious trick?Du Xingzhi frowned, not sure if his father's inflated self-esteem allowed him to use this tactic.He didn't think about Du Rusong's downfall at all. Zhang Su is an open-minded person. She never talked to anyone about the reason for the divorce. Why bother to let them be furious about this again, brooding over their daughter's grievances?
It is impossible for the Zhang family to take revenge on Du Rusong. In that small city of Huaixing, Du Rusong has connections and foundations. Even if he was about to collapse, how could it happen in just a few years?
Zhang Qiao's crisp voice echoed in the room: "I still remember when you were chasing my sister, brother-in-law. I was still young in those years. Looking at the two of you, I really felt that it was like a match made in heaven as said in the book. In the end, you really It's done, although my parents are against it, but I also think they are too old-fashioned, at that time they were worried that you would wrong the eldest sister if you were not well-off, but now, aren't you also a successful person?"
The words "successful people" are not empty words when they come out of Zhang Qiao's mouth.Since she was a child, she had a poor brain and was not very good at reading. Her EQ and IQ were not as high as those of her older brothers and sisters at home. Her older brothers, sisters and even her parents are more tolerant of her, and such a resume can also be brought into the university. Although she does not teach and educate people, she manages the professors who teach and educate people in the school.But even so, her achievements are still not comparable to any relatives in the family, not to mention the two older brothers who have stepped into the political arena now, Zhang Su who created a popular domestic clothing brand in just a few years with bare hands, and married The second sister Zhang Zhen, who is famous in the jewelry industry, is not comparable to Du Rusong, who is the leader of the court in the provincial capital city. Although the married husband also plays tricks, but in the city of Beijing, where a brick can hit a third-rank official It is really unknown, if not for the support of his father who is not old, Zhang Qiao's life would definitely not be as leisurely as it is now.
It's been decades, and it's the first time I've heard praise from Zhang Su's family. I recalled the swearing from Mr. Zhang when he almost poked his cane into his eyes. Still a little more ironing.Zhang Qiao saw that her expression was relaxed, while Zhang Su's expression was still so cold, and a strange light flashed in her eyes.
They don't know much about the truth about Zhang Su's divorce.Ever since Zhang Su eloped and left the Zhang family to follow Du Rusong to another city, she seldom paid attention to the eldest sister's movements.In the first few years, she could vaguely tell from her father's occasional words that her eldest sister's life was not satisfactory, and she seemed to be very poor. Later, life probably got better, and her father's attention to Huaixing was gradually weakening year after year. In the end, the mother and the elder sister got in touch, and the misunderstanding between the mother and daughter was gradually eliminated. According to Zhang Su's urgency of reporting good news but not worrying, Mr. Zhang's attention on Huaixing was gradually withdrawn.
As a result, the eldest sister came back suddenly, bringing back the big news that she was divorced, and stepped back to the Zhang family, where the atmosphere had changed, when her father was about to retire, and brought Du Xingzhi, an adult son, with her.It's good news for the two males of the Zhang family, but it's really not good news for the daughters.
The elder brothers have gradually broken out of their own world, but their daughters are more attached to their husband's family. Mr. Zhang's assets are only so small, and if one more person divides them up, the profit will be less. Who would welcome this 20-year-old man? What about the clean eldest sister who hasn't seen her feelings for years?
Especially Zhang Qiao, she still remembers the bleak days when she was shrouded in the halo of her two sisters when she was young, even now Zhang Su is better than her, everything in the Zhang family may be dispensable to Zhang Su, but For her, Zhang Qiao, it was of extraordinary significance.
Zhang Su's return brought back two big mouths waiting to be fed. Zhang Qiao, who was already in crisis, had to guard against it.But now, there may be a chance to invite the eldest sister back to the small town where she lived thousands of miles away.
Zhang Qiao tried her best to enliven the atmosphere, trying to make the silent Zhang Su speak out, and Zhang Zhen, who was silent at the side, also joined in, sang along with each other, and quickly chatted with Du Rusong in full swing.
Zhang Su looked at the two younger sisters coldly, she understood their rejection early in the morning, but this is her home, even if she elopes a hundred times, as long as her parents are willing to forgive, there will be a place for Zhang Su!Except for her elderly parents and her son who was neglected since childhood, Zhang Su asked herself that she never owed anyone, including her brothers and sisters. What right did they have to not allow her to go home?Just because of his father's money, can family affection be wiped out so cleanly?Who cares about those treasures that they regard as their lifelines!
However, even if she said such words clearly, no one would believe them.Mr. Zhang loves antiques. The treasures at home rely on his accumulation over the years. A painting, a bowl, and a statue may be priceless. Even if Zhang Su has her own business now, it is only a start-up company after all. Who can trust her? Will you not covet the huge wealth at your fingertips?
Encouraged by the two younger sisters, Zhang Su noticed that Du Rusong's breathing was getting heavier and his neck was slowly turning red, and he clenched his fists as if making a very important decision.He suddenly stood up, looked directly at Zhang Su, and knelt down on one knee with a plop.
In the astonished gaze, Du Rusong stared at Zhang Su as if he was going all out: "Honey, I came to you today to have a word with you."
Zhang Su lowered his eyes, and was surprised to find that his out-of-the-way action didn't stir up any waves in his heart.
"I regret it," Du Rusong continued, his eyes turned red and his voice was choked with sobs. "Without you by my side, I can't eat well and sleep well. My heart seems to be empty. I always thought you were just a little girl to me." It is dispensable, but after I really lost you, it was like being cut off my limbs, and I couldn't bear the pain. Come back to me!"
This passage is true or false, and it is naturally from the heart.He really regretted it, and realized that what he really loved in his heart was still this warm fire rose. Zhang Su's flamboyance and hotness all left a deep and wonderful memory in his memory. After Zhang Su left, his heart was annihilated like a tsunami like a raging wave.I don't know when it started, but when he saw Dou Shunjuan, all he had in his heart was the hatred for the other party breaking his marriage.
He knew that he must be at fault, but so what?Men who do not make mistakes?There is an old saying that the prodigal son will not change his money when he turns back, not to mention that if Dou Shunjuan hadn't followed him with a stern face in the past, how could he not be able to restrain himself from making such a mistake?Now he has turned his head back, but Dou Shunjuan is still nostalgic. Du Rusong asked himself that he would not give her any chance, and when he reunited with Zhang Su, he would definitely send Dou Shunjuan away.In such a small place like Huaixing, even if he is not as good as before, it is easy to deal with a rootless person like Dou Shunjuan, but the premise of everything is that Zhang Su is willing to forgive him.
Du Rusong is not sure whether he will succeed, but he firmly believes that sincerity can move the sky.What's more, Zhang Su has shared the same bed with him for decades, and his love for him used to be almost as real. When he was obsessed with Dou Shunjuan and refused to go home, Zhang Su's painstaking efforts to persuade Dou Shunjuan to stay are still vivid in his memory. A few years will obliterate this unforgettable love.
He looked up at Zhang Su, time didn't leave much obvious marks on this woman, compared with Dou Shunjuan, Zhang Su was a woman enough to stand by his side.She is noble, generous, elegant and beautiful, and she is impeccable in every aspect. Why did he agree to the divorce back then?For several years, Du Rusong questioned himself so unbelievably.
"Come back," he raised his head and looked up at Zhang Suyi's beautiful face who fell in love with him at first sight when he rode a horse on the first day he first met. As a family, we can drink our daughter-in-law’s over-the-door tea together, bring our grandchildren together, and do many, many things together. I’ve reformed myself, so give me a chance.”
If these words were put in the past, Zhang Suzhi might be moved to cry.But if I don’t feel it, I just don’t feel it. How sincere and sweet Du Rusong said, in Zhang Su’s heart, it is no different from the strike-ups of strangers who can be seen everywhere on the street. She frowned and wanted to reject him decisively, but this expression was rejected. Zhang Qiao quickly caught it.
Zhang Qiao's heart sank, she jumped up and hugged Zhang Su's arm, wiped her tears and said, "Eldest sister, brother-in-law apologized like this, just give him a chance."
Zhang Qiao's husband Wu Dachou also chimed in: "Yes, big sister, I'm a man and I can understand Brother Song's heart. Which man didn't make mistakes when he was young? I also made mistakes. Qiaoqiao forgave me very generously. If I Said, you still have a long way to go, how many years have you been married now? Good things take time, so don't pay too much attention to past mistakes. "
Zhang Su's eldest sister, Zhang Zhen, also interjected: "Sister, you should think about it for the sake of brother-in-law's willingness to give up your dignity in order to save you."
His husband Zhu Lian didn't seem to want to speak at first, but seeing that everyone in the room began to express their opinions, he immediately stood by his wife's side and gave advice that was similar to Wu Dachou's.
Except for Du Xingzhi and the nanny who was far away, almost everyone in the room was oppressing Zhang Su with hopeful eyes.
Zhang Su's hands began to tremble. Her family formed an alliance with the man who had hurt her and was forcing her to jump into the fire pit again.She swallowed, without showing the slightest tired expression on her face, but turned her head and asked Du Xingzhi: "What about you? How do you think I should choose?"
Du Rusong was overjoyed when he heard these words that seemed to be loosened, and he handed them to Du Xingzhi with gratified eyes.Du Xingzhi glanced at him, and looked at his mother seriously: "As long as you are happy, I will not blame you for whatever choice you make."
Du Rusong frowned, and stared at Du Xingzhi in disbelief. The subtext of this sentence was that he supported his mother in refusing to get back together with his father?This unfilial bastard!
However, Zhang Su felt relieved when he got the answer, yes, why should he care about these people?As long as the son is on his side and supports him all the time, that's enough.
Her disappointment was swept away, and the injury in her eyes was slowly hidden. Looking at the two younger sisters who grew up together, Zhang Su sighed softly: "I know what you are worried about."
As soon as these words came out, both Zhang Qiao and Zhang Zhen's expressions changed.
However, Zhang Su didn't play tricks with them anymore. She bluntly picked out the dirtiest side of them buried in their hearts and manipulated them nakedly: "I just want to tell you, draw me out for any purpose." There is no need in Beijing. It doesn’t make any difference whether I am here or not. I don’t want the things you fancy. I stay in Beijing to develop my work and take care of my parents. Believe it or not, that’s what I think .”
She was a little incoherent, but she was still annoyed.She watched the two younger sisters grow up, and the childhood relationship can be said to be quite good. When she went abroad to study, she would bring a large bag full of gifts and candies to the younger sisters every year when she went home for the New Year. A younger sister, she used to do her best.
However, the separation of more than 20 years has caused too much consequences after all. The gap between family members has become so large that it is difficult to ignore. In the past, she thought that she could escape the turbulence by keeping a low profile, but at this moment she found that staying in her own I am afraid that the eyes from the younger sisters on her body have never been kind for a moment.
So let's just talk about it, it's a thorn buried in my heart, and it's uncomfortable to be suspicious of anyone.
Zhang Qiao and Zhang Zhen were both very embarrassed when the emperor's new clothes were torn apart. Zhang Qiao didn't know how to pretend. It’s just that it’s a pity to give up the marriage of more than 20 years, so I persuade you. At the beginning, you and your brother-in-law had a big fight because of being together, which is not worse than returning the princess. Now, because of a little conflict, you are old and dead. Don't you think it's a pity to communicate?"
Zhang Su shook his head, and looked at Zhang Zhen, who was silent but had the same expression in his eyes. He couldn't help but sigh that the nine sons of Longsheng are different. Zhang Zhen is only two years older than Zhang Qiao, but Zhang Qiao's skill in disguise is beyond the reach of Zhang Qiao. .
Now that Du Rusong is at home, she is not in the mood to shift the conflict to her family. Seeing that her two sisters and brother-in-law have been silenced by her words, Zhang Su sneered and pointed the finger at Du Rusong: "Tell them that we divorced because A little conflict?"
Du Rusong moved his knees a little uneasily, the cold air of the hard floor tiles penetrated through the cracks in the bones, and even his heart seemed to be frozen.With a blue face, he whispered, "But I already knew I was wrong..."
Zhang Su ignored him, and deliberately amplified his voice: "You have been with Dou Shunjuan since you got married, bought her a house, a car, arranged a job, and had children with her. Now you have granddaughters, you tell them this is a small mistake ?”
Zhang Zhen and Zhang Qiao were startled when they heard the news. Thinking of Du Rusong's faltering attitude towards the reason for the divorce just now, they felt a chill in their hearts—the persuasion just now might have had the opposite effect, and even they might suffer. implicated.
Sure enough, after hearing Zhang Su's questioning, Du Rusong immediately lost his temper. After a long silence, he mustered up his courage and said, "As long as you are willing to go back with me, I will definitely send Dou Shunjuan away. I have already sent Du Yuan away." I went to her hometown, and I will have nothing to do with me in the future, so I will treat it as if I don’t have this daughter. I have taken away the house and car given to Dou Shunjuan, and I will not give her any money now. Isn’t that enough? Then as long as you Go back, how do you want to deal with them, I will never say anything!"
Frightened by his thinness, Zhang Su couldn't understand why he had taken a fancy to him in the past. Even Dou Shunjuan, who had followed him for so long and didn't want to be named for him to have children, he could abandon Dou Shunjuan in such an understatement. What about your own?If there is no support from the huge Zhang family behind him, is he also the role in his heart that can be "disposed by others" at any time?
At this moment, Zhang Su finally put aside all the old feelings in the past.If such a man is still nostalgic, it is the rhythm of death!
She stood up quickly and shouted towards the kitchen: "Mother Wang, go outside and inform the guards for me, come in and ask Mr. Du to leave."
After she finished speaking, she ignored Du Xingzhi's stunned and shocked eyes and lowered her head to stare into his eyes with a sneer: "I am the daughter of the Zhang family. I was assassinated again by the trap I fell into."
She smiled in relief, and was finally able to let go of her hatred and regard this man as a complete stranger. It is not worthwhile to suffer for such a heartless man for decades of youth. She should be glad that she got away early. .
However, before going to call for the guards, Mother Wang who opened the door screamed, and immediately lowered her head and whispered, "Mr., you are back."
Everyone in the room was attracted by these words, including Du Rusong who was kneeling on the ground, all eyes were on the door.
Zhang Dexuan gave a hum, and walked in steadily with a leading crutch that was almost an ornament. He passed the silent mother Wang, and his sharp gaze swept across the people in the room. Under a burst of low pressure, he suddenly stomped on the crutch: " Nonsense!!"
His voice was thick and loud like thunder in his ears, and even Du Xingzhi couldn't help frowning—a leader who has been a leader all his life, his aura is really different from ordinary people.
Zhang Dexuan stared at Zhang Su, and when Zhang Su thought he would scold him, he opened his mouth and scolded: "The children of my Zhang family will not turn their backs unless they are good horses, and they will not swallow their stomachs when they are wronged! Why don't you tell Dad What did he do? Do you think that Dad will not be able to bear these blows when he is old? If I told Dad earlier, this bastard would never have the opportunity to harass you in Beijing again, carrying it alone, thinking that he is omnipotent ?"
"And you!" Looking past Zhang Su, he fell on the faces of Zhang Zhen and Zhang Qiao. There was a swelling anger in his heart, which originated from his disappointment with his children who didn't care about family affection. "What are you thinking, passers-by?" We all know! Let an outsider see the jokes of our Zhang family for the sake of small profits! The future is great! Push your eldest sister into the fire pit!?"
Zhang Dexuan has always been a strict father image at home, and his accumulation of authority from childhood to adulthood has made his authority in the hearts of his children deeply ingrained.As soon as this remark came out, even Zhang Zhen, who was excellent at pretending, turned pale, Zhang Qiao was so frightened that his legs trembled, and the two of them lowered their heads and dared not even say a word.
The old man is not stupid, everyone knows he is not.He can occupy a place among the black-eyed chicken-like politicians fighting outside, and his wisdom will only be deeper than the children at home.He just pretended not to understand and didn't care about many things, so how could he really know nothing?In the past, he pretended to be stupid and deceived everyone, but now Zhang Zhen and Zhang Qiao realized that the old man's eyes might have fallen into his secret fighting skills.
This is undoubtedly a bolt from the blue, plus they persuaded Zhang Su and Du Rusong to remarry today, it is self-evident how dark they will leave in the old man's heart!
Zhang Zhen gritted his teeth fiercely, too anxious!These days, she still wants to entrust her family to solve some crucial problems for her husband. Once this incident happens, the angry old man may not even listen to her request!It's all Du Rusong's fault. If he hadn't fooled everyone with his nonsense, why would they have persuaded Zhang Su indiscriminately? !
Zhang Qiao's fingertips trembled, and she almost cried from her father's yelling, her eyes turned black in bursts.She regretted to death why she got involved in this kind of thing, and was bumped into by the old man, was she really afraid of something?
Zhang Su's eyes turned red with emotion, never expecting that his father, who cares most about face, would think of himself so much.Remembering how she used to fight against Du Rusong in every possible way in order to marry Du Rusong, and finally even walked away, she couldn't help feeling sore in her nose, and almost shed tears.
Zhang Dexuan looked at his rarely seen eldest daughter who was showing weakness, and sighed in his heart that fate is tricking people, and then his tone became harder.The gaze he stared at Du Rusong almost burned a pair of holes in his body!Du Rusong's original kneeling on one knee had already been forced to his knees by the powerful majesty, and he huddled into a ball in embarrassment, wishing to use his head to reduce his sense of existence.
He himself thought he had figured out the psychology of his father-in-law...or the former father-in-law.In the past, he obstructed his and Zhang Su's wedding in every possible way. Didn't he just feel that he was a poor boy and that it would be embarrassing for his daughter to marry him?Such a face-saving person must not tolerate the fact that his daughter is divorced. If he is willing to remarry, this old man should be the first person to vote in favor, but he never expected that what awaits him will be such a direct anger .
Shoot yourself in the foot.This line of blood-red characters emerged in Du Rusong's heart, and his intestines were turning blue with regret.
He tremblingly opened his mouth to say something, but Zhang Dexuan's eyes sharpened, and he turned around and shouted: "Guards! Guards! Drag him out for me!!"
The two soldiers ran in, saluted Zhang Dexuan one by one, then ran to Du Rusong's side and clasped their shoulders one by one, and lifted Du Rusong up, who had weak legs and feet.
Their hands are very strong, as hard and powerful as steel claws. When they clasped their shoulders, Du Rusong shivered in pain and subconsciously wanted to ask for mercy, but before he opened his mouth to speak, the scene in front of him was overwhelming. suddenly changed.From the warm living room like spring to the biting cold outdoor.
Being unceremoniously "invited" out of the gate, Brother Bing didn't even bother to talk to him, turned around and left.
Du Rusong wanted to break in again, but he heard two crisp clicks of the gun being loaded, and the two black barrels were aimed at his head.
Inside the house, Zhang Dexuan lost his temper at the two younger daughters, scolding them for not knowing that the eldest sister Youai is obsessed with seeing profit and forgetting righteousness. She is a mother if she has milk. After scolding the eldest son-in-law's chubby head into a layer of bean-sized sweat, he would not stop, and finally added a heavy cold snort.
Zhang Zhen and Zhang Qiao didn't even dare to look at Zhang Su's face anymore. The old man said "Get out", and they ran out of the house with their tails between their husbands. After smelling the air outside the house, they suddenly fell deeply. Take a breath and come alive!
But Zhang Su in the room really had the courage to express his grievances. The unhappiness and resentment in the past have disappeared in this second.She flung herself into her father's chest, which she had never felt before, and cried bitterly regardless of his expression.
Zhang Dexuan, who had never been so close to his children, immediately changed his expression to O^O, his majestic goat beard was up and down, and he looked like he wanted to curse, but he opened and closed his mouth for a long time, but he still didn't make a sound, just handed the crutch to Du Xingzhi took it, stretched out his hand, and hugged his daughter vaguely.
This eldest daughter, young and precociously intelligent, has endured too much suffering.It is also because he owes too much as a father.Zhang Dexuan once had a headache for his daughter insisting on being with Du Rusong, and even went to a psychiatrist for help. The psychiatrist explained to him that growing up in a patriarchal family, Zhang Su had never felt normal paternal love since he was a child. There is a man who is especially tender to her, and she will be greedy for this kind of psychological satisfaction and cannot extricate herself.
Zhang Dexuan regretted it at that time, but he has never been a gentle person, and there is an indelible impulse in his personality. Once he is angry, he will speak out without choice. How easy is it to change?
It was him who owed the love that his daughter should have received since childhood...
Zhang Dexuan blinked back his tears, he was a majestic grandfather in front of his grandson.When he took a closer look at Du Xingzhi, who was still staring at him, he immediately became angry, and shouted shyly and shyly: "What are you looking at! Why don't you hurry up and comfort your mother!? Bastard boy!"
Du Xingzhi's brows twitched when he was scolded innocently, and he leaned back a little inexplicably.But he didn't grow up beside Zhang Dexuan, so naturally he wasn't afraid of him. After putting the crutch back into Zhang Dexuan's hand, he took out the handkerchief in his pocket and stuffed it to his mother, and said in a firm voice: "A lot of old people, don't Cried."
Zhang Dexuan held the crutch that was forced in, stared at Du Xingzhi's behavior as if he was coaxing his daughter, and felt relieved again.
There is no gentle father, and now there is a mature son who can take care of her. The daughter's suffering is indeed temporary, and she will surely enjoy inexhaustible blessings in her old age.
The goat beard turned up, and Zhang Dexuan had praise and pride in his grandson in his eyes. He patted Du Xingzhi on the shoulder, and praised for the first time: "You are very good, unlike your father, you are a boy with a conscience."
Du Xingzhi looked back at this inexplicable grandfather, always feeling that the majesty he could vaguely feel just now was actually just an illusion.
