TC Group was just a small company at the beginning, and its first person in charge, named Zhuang He, had brains and technology, and he gradually developed the small company.
With the injection of funds from various sources, the company's roots are intertwined, and each root system is crazily extended. It is impossible to pass the throne to the next generation as smoothly as the ancient emperors.
And TC has already tacitly decided to use cruel fighting methods to determine the future helm.
So the second person in power, the son of Zhuang He, was soon overthrown shortly after he came to power.
After this, the banker couldn't find an opportunity to get up again. Fortunately, there are still stocks to support him, and his life is still prosperous.
A comfortable environment is easy to breed laziness, and the dealers gradually lose their desire to compete for fame and fortune. Most of the children in the family have no ambition, and slowly start to go astray, eating, drinking, playing, gambling, drugs, whoring, and everything.
Zhuang Wei's father is one of them, he is the great-grandson of the Zhuang family.
Because of the presence of Zhuang He's wife, who is also the head of the Zhuang family, he went back to playing, but he didn't dare to bring the outside woman back until he met Zhuang Wei's mother.
Zhuang Wei's mother is called Chen Lisha, she is an out-and-out beauty, she lived with her mother in the old town of Central City in her early years.
The old urban area of the central city is small, with dilapidated houses and unscientific street planning. The streets and alleys are full of old and dilapidated atmosphere.
Most of the people living here are not well-off.Some can only do manual labor, some are idlers, and some are criminals who only dare to hide in dark places and steal chickens and dogs like rats in the sewer.
Chen Lisha has had enough of this place for a long time, she has longed to leave since she was a child, and live a new life in the bustling rich area.
At the age of 22, her dream came true.
At that time, Chen Lisha was working as a wine salesperson and met Zhuang Wei's father Zhuang Yi in the bar where she worked.
Zhuang Yi loves to play, is rich, and the city is not deep, and he can even be said to be simple-minded.After a preliminary understanding of the other party's personality, hobbies, and family conditions, Chen Lisha made him the number one goal for climbing high.
Through hard work, she succeeded.
Zhuang Yi was so bewildered that he quickly brought him into his small villa.
The villa is more than 400 square meters up and down, with luxurious decoration, luxury cars to pick up and drop off, and servants to call.
Chen Lisha was obsessed with her current life, she didn't want to get out, tried every means, and got pregnant by accident.
Who knew that Zhuang Yi was a scumbag, he didn't show the slightest joy after hearing the news, and ordered her to kill the child on the spot.
Although the old mistress has reached the age when most of her body has been buried in the earth, she acts ruthlessly.
In her opinion, even if the dealer can't get up again, he can't continue to lose in her hands.So early on, she told her children and grandchildren that marriage matters must be up to her, and she would never recognize anything else, whether it was a gold digger who delusional to marry into a wealthy family, or a bastard of unknown origin.
According to Zhuang Yi's knowledge, there was a side branch of the dealer who made this mistake before. The old owner's mother took the initiative to break up the young couple, and even threw the side branch into marriage.
The in-laws who are married have some relationship with TC Group, and the two sides support each other, which is indeed beneficial to the bankers who have already tended to decline.
But the unlucky thing is that the daughter of that family looks big and thick, with a pungent personality.
Zhuang Yi was timid and cowardly, and was very afraid of his great-grandmother. He didn't want to marry another tigress, so he told Chen Lisha not to have this child.
Chen Lisha thought that a mother is more expensive than a child, and she was unwilling to live or die. The two sides argued several times, and the relationship gradually became more and more cracked.
Back and forth, the time dragged on and on, and the belly of the pregnant woman gradually grew bigger, and it would be dangerous to try to destroy it.
Zhuang Yi still has some feelings for Chen Lisha, and what is in her stomach is his first blood relative, so he doesn't know where the courage came from. He secretly bought a small house alone on the edge of the city, and put the people in the house. Settle in.
A few months later, the child was born, a beautiful boy.
The little baby had soft black hair, his eyes were tightly closed, and his little hands and toes were curled up, looking ugly.
Zhuang Yi was not very satisfied, he felt that the child was not very good-looking, and for some reason, he refused to open his eyes for a long time.
The doctor checked it out and said it was fine and it will be fine in a few days.
Nearly half a month later, the little baby finally opened his eyes. His dark eyes were full of coldness. Every time he looked at his son, Zhuang Yi felt that those eyes were bottomless and he panicked.
Gradually, he didn't like to tease the child anymore, and he didn't even bother to hug him.
Chen Lisha noticed the strangeness of the man, and she was flustered. Now she was counting on this kid to pry open the door of the rich family. How could she let this road be cut off? !
In order to keep Zhuang Yi, she worked harder to please him, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't catch up with the speed at which the man was attracted by the colorful world outside.
One day, a younger and more beautiful woman came to her door.
That night, Chen Lisha sat alone in a dark room for a long time before making a decision.
Early the next morning, she carried her son, who was only a few months old, to the mansion.
The dealer's old house is a big manor. After the iron gate opens automatically, you have to walk a long way to see the big European-style villa where you live.
Chen Lisha cut to the chase, knocked on the door and told the housekeeper that the child in her hand belonged to Zhuang Yi.
A person with Zhuang Yi's personality dared to have a child outside behind the old lady's back, and it's so old!The news reached the old mistress' ears immediately.
The old lady's eyelids trembled, and she tightened her grip on the bowl of tea, half-closed her eyelids and said, "Bring her here."
The house is as big as a palace, with antiques and famous paintings everywhere, the floor, the handrails of the stairs, and even the washbasin in the bathroom are all made of top-quality materials.
Compared with the small villa that Zhuang Yi let her live in temporarily, this is the place where she wants to stay even in her dreams.
Chen Lisha followed the housekeeper to Xiangyang's room on the second floor. There was a maid standing outside the room. Seeing her, she just raised her eyes lazily and didn't even bother to say hello.
After sending people in, the butler left, leaving only two people in the room.
One stood awkwardly and a little nervously, while the other drank tea with a calm and elegant expression.
Chen Lisha knew that if she spoke rashly, she would appear too eager. She hugged the child tightly, pinching the child's calf with her fingernails.
With a bang, the crying of the baby broke the eerie atmosphere in the room.
The old mistress put down the ceramic tureen in her hand, raised her eyes and glanced at Chen Lisha, "How old is the child?"
Chen Lisha, "Five months and six days old, he is a well-behaved and quiet boy."
The old mistress didn't have any troubles on her face, "Hold me here and have a look."
Chen Lisha's heartbeat increased sharply, and she didn't know whether it was fear or excitement. After taking a few deep breaths, she walked over and handed the child into the hands of the old lady.
At first glance, the old lady had a good impression of the child, she was not noisy, she stared at him with dark eyes, and seemed to smile at her.
"Did you name it?"
Chen Li said quickly, "No."
Not being able to name her was intentional, and she was waiting for the day when she could walk in dignifiedly, so that the old lady could get up in person.
Chen Lisha pursed her lips and smiled, "Madam, how about you give me one?"
The old mistress's eyes turned cold, and she sneered, "A bastard is also worthy?"
Chen Lisha couldn't hold back her face, she almost yelled, she held back, bit her lower lip forbearance, she was about to shed tears, and held back her tears in grievance.
"Since the child is born, I can't strangle him cruelly." After a long silence, the old lady said, "You go, the child stays."
Chen Lisha quit, knelt down immediately, and was dragged out by the old lady.
It was also a coincidence that the weather outside changed rapidly, and it began to rain heavily.
Chen Lisha straightened her waist and knelt outside, stubborn and resolute.
The old lady just opened the curtains and took a look, and didn't take it seriously. After everyone retreated, she smiled and teased the baby, and then sent someone to find the family tree, and gave it a name by comparison——
Wei, towering and standing upright, unmoved by foreign objects.
It was raining outside the window, and when it was almost midnight, a servant came in to report that Chen Lisha had fainted outside.
The old mistress raised her eyebrows, this bitter trick is really wonderful, it seems unreasonable not to join her.
She ordered someone to bring Chen Lisha in, and threw away a simple guest room.
Chen Lisha woke up with a high fever and it took a whole week to recover. She knew that the old lady didn't accept her, and she didn't drive her away because she wanted to torture her.
For everything you want, what can't you bear?
Chen Lisha's life in the mansion was no different from that of a servant. At the end of the day, she didn't even see her son's face, only occasionally seeing her from a distance.
Apart from the child, she is just a bargaining chip, it doesn't matter if she doesn't see her, as long as she stays here, she has a chance to climb up.
Time flies, Zhuang Wei is three years old, the old lady suddenly fell into a serious illness, and her vitality was seriously injured after the operation, and she was getting worse and worse.
Zhuang Yi's parents died early, and he was brought up by his great-grandmother. He still has filial piety. In order to spend more time with the elderly, he deliberately reduced the time he spent going out and drinking.In this way, the chances to get along with Chen Lisha increased.
Chen Lisha took the opportunity to hook up, and within a few days, she and Zhuang Yi were like glue.
Not long after, Zhuang Yi decided that Chen Lisha could take care of the children two days a week.
Only little Zhuang Wei knew that those two days were not pleasant for him.
Chen Lisha has a bad temper, and no matter how quiet a child is, she can't help being curious about the novel things around her.
When the mother or the servants were not paying attention, Xiao Zhuangwei took short steps to touch there and touch here.
Whenever this happened, Chen Lisha would be so angry that she would pinch and twist the child's tender flesh before anyone noticed.
Zhuang Wei was going to cry at first, but his crying was always very quiet, with tears streaming down his face, without making a sound, just staring at you with those black eyes.
Whenever she is looked at by him with those eyes, Chen Lisha will feel a kind of panic in her heart that the ugliness in her heart will be seen through by the child. She is even more annoyed. unhappy.
Zhuang Wei grew up day by day, but his mother's attitude towards him was up and down.
That woman was very beautiful, always painted with exquisite and coquettish makeup, and her lips were smeared like blood.
She would speak softly to him, and would suddenly show bored looks at him.
At that time, Zhuang Wei was too young, and still had illusions about his mother. Even if he was hurt, he was willing to tremblingly reach out for a warm embrace.
Chen Lisha was sure of his point, and when she was in a good mood, she would keep instilling some negative things in her son's mind.
For example, how unreasonable your great-great-grandmother was, and how viciously she wanted to break us up; and for example, sometimes when your mother treats you coldly, it’s not because she hates you, but because she was disturbed by your great-great-grandmother and unintentionally angered you... And so on, many, many.
Zhuang Wei was young, but his mind was good, so he didn't fully listen to his mother's words.
He always took advantage of Chen Lisha's inattention and sneaked to the room on the second floor to peek at the gloomy and serious old man.
The old mistress is getting worse every day, but she still refuses to let go of the power she holds in her hands.
Probably because she realized that she didn't have much time, her attitude towards Chen Lisha became worse and worse, which also made Chen Lisha's hatred for her grow day by day.
Under the long backlog, Chen Lisha took action against the old lady.
Taking advantage of the absence of the servants, she sneaked up to the second floor. Knowing that the old man had a heart attack, she deviated from her usual submissive manner, hurled insults at the old lady, and vividly described what she had heard about the dealer's dirty stories come out.
The old lady could bear it at first, but who knew that the woman went too far and even mentioned her dead husband, which was her biggest regret.
Suddenly out of breath, the old lady had a heart attack.
Chen Lisha looked at the old man who rolled over from the bed and curled up in pain, showing a momentary panic.
In an instant, she regained her composure, brushed her newly permed hair, and left the room.
At that time, Xiao Zhuangwei happened to be playing in the cubicle of the old lady's room. After witnessing everything through the crack of the door, he was stunned for a few seconds, then ran out on short legs, pushed and shoved the distressed old man, and followed the instructions from Take out the first aid equipment from the bedside table.
After the incident, Chen Lisha was somewhat frightened and fidgeted in the hall downstairs.
Whenever a servant came upstairs with cleaning tools, her heart skipped a beat, looking forward to the screaming news from the other side of the ceiling.
However, several minutes passed and nothing happened.
Instead, a mighty medical team arrived.
Strange to say, since the old lady was sent to the hospital that day, her health has improved day by day.
When I come back two months later, the first thing I do is to drive Lisa Chen out.
At that time, Xiao Zhuangwei, who was less than three years old, was standing at the gate of the mansion, looking at his mother lying on the ground and crying in a daze.
Chen Lisha yelled at him over and over again, mom only has you, please go with mom, mom loves you so much, mom can't lose you.
Xiao Zhuangwei looked back at his great-great-grandmother, feeling shaken. In his heart, his mother was alone, and his great-great-grandmother was accompanied by Aunt Li in the kitchen, Mama Zhang, the gardener, and even his father who rarely hugged him.
The old mistress saw the hesitation in his heart, and it was a lie to say that he was not disappointed. She didn't give the child any time to hesitate, so she pushed him out cruelly, and closed the door with a bang.
The child doesn't have the ability to distinguish right from wrong, she wants him to see what his mother's true face is.
Chen Lisha took Zhuang Wei out of the old house and returned to the small suite where she lived when she was pregnant.
She is used to living in a beautiful and luxurious big house, how can she bear the crampedness of today, she is getting irritable and irritable every day, looking forward to Zhuang Yi's arrival more than ever.
Zhuang Wei didn't like to make a sound as before, he squatted in the corner with his knees hugged, watching the woman who was humming and never tired of trying on new clothes.
He found that since he followed him here, his mother's attitude towards him had become cold.
Just like a new toy given to him by his great-great-grandmother, he always puts it aside after a brief moment of enthusiasm and interest, and only takes it out to touch when he thinks of it occasionally.
No, he is not even as good as a toy. My mother would only hug him and tease him a few times when my father came, her eyes were cold and threatening, and she didn't really like to touch him.
Zhuang Wei hid his disappointment, the hope in his heart was like a candle, already flickering, it only needed one breath, and it would be extinguished, and could never be ignited again.
The weather was fine that day, but because my father didn't come, my mother's face was covered with clouds, and she transferred all her anger on him.
Xiao Zhuangwei was four years old at the time, and his ears were ringing from the slap, and he lay on the ground for a long time and couldn't get up.
Chen Lisha reached out and grabbed the child, grabbed him by the neck, and stared fiercely, "Look at your father, I have only been away from the dealer for a long time, and he was seduced by the little vixen. Do you think you will be the same when you grow up?" This virtue, huh?"
After that slap, Chen Lisha hasn't touched Xiao Zhuangwei for a long time.
Because the father came.
Zhuang Yi tasted the delicate little flowers outside, and remembered the mature roses that gave birth to him, but after a long time, he always felt that the fragrance was tacky, and it lost the freshness of the previous one, and gradually, it stopped coming.
Chen Lisha tried all kinds of methods, but to no avail, her temper became worse and worse, and she began to drink to relieve her worries.
Zhuang Wei doesn't like the smell of wine, whenever he sees his mother picking up a wine bottle, he hides away, sometimes in the corner of his small room, sometimes behind the sofa.
He will show two eyes and watch secretly.
The mother drank more and more alcohol, and the frequency of drunken madness began to increase frequently. She would sit on the ground and scream, scratch her hair, and violently smash things at home.
Until one day, when there was nothing more to smash at home, she set her sights on the child.
No matter how she pinches and pushes, the child never cries or fusses, even if tears are rolling in his eyes, he can still bite his lips and keep silent.
This is a silent confrontation.
Chen Lisha always felt that she was very ugly reflected in those eyes, like a monster with teeth and claws.
One day, she finally screamed unbearably, "Don't look! Don't look at me like that!"
Zhuang Wei suddenly laughed, "Mom, you look so ugly."
No matter how weak or kind a person is, they will start to resist after a long period of torture. Zhuang Wei's words are like a curse, making Chen Lisha miserable.
She pushed the child away and rushed into the bathroom, touching her face with trembling hands.
The woman in the mirror has disheveled hair, black eye bags, part of the lipstick on her lips has been wiped off, the thick foundation is dark and light, and the whole face is colorful, like a disgusting palette.
Chen Lisha screamed like venting, picked up the skin care product bottle on the sink and smashed the mirror.
At that time, Xiao Zhuangwei was over seven years old, and he stood motionless at the door of the bathroom, with no emotion in his dark eyes.
Chen Lisha rushed out and just knocked him down. She picked him up, her bright red nails pinched at the child's arm, "You say I'm ugly? For whom did I become what I am today! It's all because You, because you are a fool, useless trash! As long as you are more obedient and can coax people, your father will not ignore us! Zhuang Wei, you are a trash, no, you are a monster! Can’t cry , won't make trouble, standing in the corner like a ghost..."
It seems that in order to verify Chen Lisha's words, Zhuang Yi suddenly appeared one night, gave him a sum of money, and said that he would cut off contact, and he never showed up again.
Holding a check that couldn't fill the gap of desire, Chen Lisha was in terrific pain, and her alcoholism became worse and worse. In order to avenge that cold-hearted heartless man, she began to take the man home.
One today, one tomorrow, and Zhuang Wei will always be like a statue, not making a sound, not stopping, standing aside and watching coldly.
That night, Chen Lisha took the man home again. As soon as she entered the door, she saw her son who was locked at home holding a bowl of instant noodles that he didn't know where to find.
Hearing the noise, the child turned his head and glanced at her.
Another look, another look!
There was sarcasm and sneer in those dark eyes.
She pushed away the man who was hugging her, rushed to the small square dining table, grabbed the child's clothes and dragged him to the ground.
"What kind of eyes do you have! I said, you are not allowed to look at me like that!" Chen Lisha roared.
Xiao Zhuangwei was silent, motionless, his eyes were terribly quiet.
"I tell you to close your eyes!"
Chen Lisha shouted loudly, and completely lost her mind in anger. After pushing and shoving a few times, she grabbed the child's hair and slammed his head against the wall.
One stroke, two strokes... At the third stroke, Zhuang Wei suddenly grabbed her arm and bit hard, and Chen Lisha's wrist was immediately bleeding.
In pain, she let go of her hand, and the child took the opportunity to bump her away and rushed out the door.
It was cloudy and cold outside. Zhuang Wei didn't wear a coat when he went out, and he wore sandals and slippers. Everyone who passed by would look at him, but no one was willing to help him, asking him if he was cold.
Located in the suburbs, there are not as many vehicles coming and going as in the urban area. As the sky gets darker, the roads are even more sparsely populated, but on every street corner, there are always young people squatting on the ground in sleek clothes.
Every time they passed by, the young people always whistled at Xiao Zhuangwei, and there were a few who owed him a hand and pinched his face.
Zhuang Wei had a tough temper, and bravely hid twice, but was beaten up, the corner of his mouth was broken, and one eye was swollen.
He continued to move forward with a limp step, and arrived at the gate of an orphanage.
The people living in this kind of place were all homeless children, and he felt that he was no different from those children, but it was late at night, and the iron gate was locked, and he was so small that he couldn't get in at all.
Just when he was about to leave, a group of children came running from a distance and stopped in front of a bush outside an old building.
The bushes were lush and green, and after they were separated by the children, a child who was a year or two younger than Zhuang Wei emerged from it.
The child has red lips and white teeth, and clear and moist eyes, like two small crystal grapes.
But when he looked at the smiling faces all around him, he was scrutinizing, making people think that he seemed like a little adult who knew everything.
Xiao Zhuangwei had never seen such a beautiful child before, his eyes were easily attracted, he put his feet up, grabbed the guardrail, and stretched his neck to look inside.
It was probably because his eyes were too obvious, or it was just a pure coincidence that the child suddenly looked in his direction.
Xiao Zhuangwei was taken aback for a moment, then hugged his knees and squatted on the ground with a guilty conscience.
He moved his ears and heard the group of children calling out a name, Li Yu.
"I don't know which two words it is..."
Zhuang Wei muttered and squatted for a while, couldn't help standing up again, and found that the group of children were bullying that child.
Sometimes, he felt that Chen Lisha was right in scolding him, that he was indeed like a monster, and he was always lacking in interest and empathy for the people and things around him.
And at this moment, he was nosy for the first time, and shouted at the top of his voice, "The dean is here! The dean is here!"
The biggest thing in the orphanage is the director. She can criticize and punish them, and the children are afraid of her.
Before the shout came from nowhere, the little kids around Li Yu disappeared.
After Xiao Zhuangwei shouted, he was also worried about being discovered, so he hid under the small tree next to him, waited and waited, and seeing the orphanage was quiet, he slowly stuck his head out.
In an instant, his eyes widened suddenly, and he forgot to react. There was an extra person in the guardrail that was supposed to be empty.
Li Yu pursed his lips, and looked at the bruised little boy strangely, remembering that the dean told him to be polite and repay every kindness, he looked at the little boy and said, "Thank you."
A thank you is obviously not enough to offset the other party's help. After all, if this person hadn't helped him, his current situation would probably be bruised and swollen.
After thinking about it, Li Yu said with a blank face, "Do you feel pain? Let me get you some medicine."
Xiao Zhuangwei looked at the white and beautiful little brother in front of him, kicked his toes on the ground, lowered his head and let out a low voice.
Looking up again, the little boy had already left, leaving only a short figure behind.
Xiao Zhuangwei was a little disappointed, wondering if the other party heard the sound he answered just now...
The moon had risen very high in the sky, and unknown little moths were flying under the street lamps. Zhuang Wei was in pain all over, leaning against the low wall, and sat on the ground unconsciously, with his head tilted and his eyelids fighting.
Suddenly the corner of his mouth became cold, and he opened his eyes vigilantly.
Li Yu came out of the orphanage at some point, and was squatting in front of him, using a cotton swab dipped in liquid medicine to wipe his wound.
Every place that the potion rubbed was cool and still a little painful, but he didn't dare to make a sound, for fear that if he made a sound, the other party would think he was too troublesome and let him wipe it off by himself.
Applying medicine to people is too new for Li Yu, he can't take his eyes off and is very focused.
"All right."
A childish voice sounded, Xiao Zhuangwei pursed his lips, raised his eyelids to meet the child's beautiful eyes, and now he felt that the potion at the corner of his mouth was no longer cold, it was a little hot, and even his face was burning.
He lowered his head, clutched his clothes with his fingers, and whispered thank you.
Li Yu nodded, and said in an adult tone, "Go home, I'm going in."
After speaking, the person left without any regrets.
Xiao Zhuangwei froze in place, feeling a little lost. His great-great-grandmother had hugged him before, but she had never touched him so tenderly. At that time, only the cold servants in the house took care of him.
Not to mention Zhuang Yi, as a father, the number of times he has been hugged can be counted on the fingers.
As for the mother... Xiao Zhuangwei lowered his head again, touched the sticky potion at the corner of his mouth with his little hand, and felt a little aftertaste in his heart.
It was the first time someone treated him so well, so lightly, so softly applied medicine for him.
Zhuang Wei found a corner sheltered from the wind, and covered himself with a torn newspaper from the garbage dump. As long as he looked up, he could see whether the children came out of the orphanage building to play.
He wanted to wait until dawn to ask that little boy if he would like to be friends with him.
With the injection of funds from various sources, the company's roots are intertwined, and each root system is crazily extended. It is impossible to pass the throne to the next generation as smoothly as the ancient emperors.
And TC has already tacitly decided to use cruel fighting methods to determine the future helm.
So the second person in power, the son of Zhuang He, was soon overthrown shortly after he came to power.
After this, the banker couldn't find an opportunity to get up again. Fortunately, there are still stocks to support him, and his life is still prosperous.
A comfortable environment is easy to breed laziness, and the dealers gradually lose their desire to compete for fame and fortune. Most of the children in the family have no ambition, and slowly start to go astray, eating, drinking, playing, gambling, drugs, whoring, and everything.
Zhuang Wei's father is one of them, he is the great-grandson of the Zhuang family.
Because of the presence of Zhuang He's wife, who is also the head of the Zhuang family, he went back to playing, but he didn't dare to bring the outside woman back until he met Zhuang Wei's mother.
Zhuang Wei's mother is called Chen Lisha, she is an out-and-out beauty, she lived with her mother in the old town of Central City in her early years.
The old urban area of the central city is small, with dilapidated houses and unscientific street planning. The streets and alleys are full of old and dilapidated atmosphere.
Most of the people living here are not well-off.Some can only do manual labor, some are idlers, and some are criminals who only dare to hide in dark places and steal chickens and dogs like rats in the sewer.
Chen Lisha has had enough of this place for a long time, she has longed to leave since she was a child, and live a new life in the bustling rich area.
At the age of 22, her dream came true.
At that time, Chen Lisha was working as a wine salesperson and met Zhuang Wei's father Zhuang Yi in the bar where she worked.
Zhuang Yi loves to play, is rich, and the city is not deep, and he can even be said to be simple-minded.After a preliminary understanding of the other party's personality, hobbies, and family conditions, Chen Lisha made him the number one goal for climbing high.
Through hard work, she succeeded.
Zhuang Yi was so bewildered that he quickly brought him into his small villa.
The villa is more than 400 square meters up and down, with luxurious decoration, luxury cars to pick up and drop off, and servants to call.
Chen Lisha was obsessed with her current life, she didn't want to get out, tried every means, and got pregnant by accident.
Who knew that Zhuang Yi was a scumbag, he didn't show the slightest joy after hearing the news, and ordered her to kill the child on the spot.
Although the old mistress has reached the age when most of her body has been buried in the earth, she acts ruthlessly.
In her opinion, even if the dealer can't get up again, he can't continue to lose in her hands.So early on, she told her children and grandchildren that marriage matters must be up to her, and she would never recognize anything else, whether it was a gold digger who delusional to marry into a wealthy family, or a bastard of unknown origin.
According to Zhuang Yi's knowledge, there was a side branch of the dealer who made this mistake before. The old owner's mother took the initiative to break up the young couple, and even threw the side branch into marriage.
The in-laws who are married have some relationship with TC Group, and the two sides support each other, which is indeed beneficial to the bankers who have already tended to decline.
But the unlucky thing is that the daughter of that family looks big and thick, with a pungent personality.
Zhuang Yi was timid and cowardly, and was very afraid of his great-grandmother. He didn't want to marry another tigress, so he told Chen Lisha not to have this child.
Chen Lisha thought that a mother is more expensive than a child, and she was unwilling to live or die. The two sides argued several times, and the relationship gradually became more and more cracked.
Back and forth, the time dragged on and on, and the belly of the pregnant woman gradually grew bigger, and it would be dangerous to try to destroy it.
Zhuang Yi still has some feelings for Chen Lisha, and what is in her stomach is his first blood relative, so he doesn't know where the courage came from. He secretly bought a small house alone on the edge of the city, and put the people in the house. Settle in.
A few months later, the child was born, a beautiful boy.
The little baby had soft black hair, his eyes were tightly closed, and his little hands and toes were curled up, looking ugly.
Zhuang Yi was not very satisfied, he felt that the child was not very good-looking, and for some reason, he refused to open his eyes for a long time.
The doctor checked it out and said it was fine and it will be fine in a few days.
Nearly half a month later, the little baby finally opened his eyes. His dark eyes were full of coldness. Every time he looked at his son, Zhuang Yi felt that those eyes were bottomless and he panicked.
Gradually, he didn't like to tease the child anymore, and he didn't even bother to hug him.
Chen Lisha noticed the strangeness of the man, and she was flustered. Now she was counting on this kid to pry open the door of the rich family. How could she let this road be cut off? !
In order to keep Zhuang Yi, she worked harder to please him, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't catch up with the speed at which the man was attracted by the colorful world outside.
One day, a younger and more beautiful woman came to her door.
That night, Chen Lisha sat alone in a dark room for a long time before making a decision.
Early the next morning, she carried her son, who was only a few months old, to the mansion.
The dealer's old house is a big manor. After the iron gate opens automatically, you have to walk a long way to see the big European-style villa where you live.
Chen Lisha cut to the chase, knocked on the door and told the housekeeper that the child in her hand belonged to Zhuang Yi.
A person with Zhuang Yi's personality dared to have a child outside behind the old lady's back, and it's so old!The news reached the old mistress' ears immediately.
The old lady's eyelids trembled, and she tightened her grip on the bowl of tea, half-closed her eyelids and said, "Bring her here."
The house is as big as a palace, with antiques and famous paintings everywhere, the floor, the handrails of the stairs, and even the washbasin in the bathroom are all made of top-quality materials.
Compared with the small villa that Zhuang Yi let her live in temporarily, this is the place where she wants to stay even in her dreams.
Chen Lisha followed the housekeeper to Xiangyang's room on the second floor. There was a maid standing outside the room. Seeing her, she just raised her eyes lazily and didn't even bother to say hello.
After sending people in, the butler left, leaving only two people in the room.
One stood awkwardly and a little nervously, while the other drank tea with a calm and elegant expression.
Chen Lisha knew that if she spoke rashly, she would appear too eager. She hugged the child tightly, pinching the child's calf with her fingernails.
With a bang, the crying of the baby broke the eerie atmosphere in the room.
The old mistress put down the ceramic tureen in her hand, raised her eyes and glanced at Chen Lisha, "How old is the child?"
Chen Lisha, "Five months and six days old, he is a well-behaved and quiet boy."
The old mistress didn't have any troubles on her face, "Hold me here and have a look."
Chen Lisha's heartbeat increased sharply, and she didn't know whether it was fear or excitement. After taking a few deep breaths, she walked over and handed the child into the hands of the old lady.
At first glance, the old lady had a good impression of the child, she was not noisy, she stared at him with dark eyes, and seemed to smile at her.
"Did you name it?"
Chen Li said quickly, "No."
Not being able to name her was intentional, and she was waiting for the day when she could walk in dignifiedly, so that the old lady could get up in person.
Chen Lisha pursed her lips and smiled, "Madam, how about you give me one?"
The old mistress's eyes turned cold, and she sneered, "A bastard is also worthy?"
Chen Lisha couldn't hold back her face, she almost yelled, she held back, bit her lower lip forbearance, she was about to shed tears, and held back her tears in grievance.
"Since the child is born, I can't strangle him cruelly." After a long silence, the old lady said, "You go, the child stays."
Chen Lisha quit, knelt down immediately, and was dragged out by the old lady.
It was also a coincidence that the weather outside changed rapidly, and it began to rain heavily.
Chen Lisha straightened her waist and knelt outside, stubborn and resolute.
The old lady just opened the curtains and took a look, and didn't take it seriously. After everyone retreated, she smiled and teased the baby, and then sent someone to find the family tree, and gave it a name by comparison——
Wei, towering and standing upright, unmoved by foreign objects.
It was raining outside the window, and when it was almost midnight, a servant came in to report that Chen Lisha had fainted outside.
The old mistress raised her eyebrows, this bitter trick is really wonderful, it seems unreasonable not to join her.
She ordered someone to bring Chen Lisha in, and threw away a simple guest room.
Chen Lisha woke up with a high fever and it took a whole week to recover. She knew that the old lady didn't accept her, and she didn't drive her away because she wanted to torture her.
For everything you want, what can't you bear?
Chen Lisha's life in the mansion was no different from that of a servant. At the end of the day, she didn't even see her son's face, only occasionally seeing her from a distance.
Apart from the child, she is just a bargaining chip, it doesn't matter if she doesn't see her, as long as she stays here, she has a chance to climb up.
Time flies, Zhuang Wei is three years old, the old lady suddenly fell into a serious illness, and her vitality was seriously injured after the operation, and she was getting worse and worse.
Zhuang Yi's parents died early, and he was brought up by his great-grandmother. He still has filial piety. In order to spend more time with the elderly, he deliberately reduced the time he spent going out and drinking.In this way, the chances to get along with Chen Lisha increased.
Chen Lisha took the opportunity to hook up, and within a few days, she and Zhuang Yi were like glue.
Not long after, Zhuang Yi decided that Chen Lisha could take care of the children two days a week.
Only little Zhuang Wei knew that those two days were not pleasant for him.
Chen Lisha has a bad temper, and no matter how quiet a child is, she can't help being curious about the novel things around her.
When the mother or the servants were not paying attention, Xiao Zhuangwei took short steps to touch there and touch here.
Whenever this happened, Chen Lisha would be so angry that she would pinch and twist the child's tender flesh before anyone noticed.
Zhuang Wei was going to cry at first, but his crying was always very quiet, with tears streaming down his face, without making a sound, just staring at you with those black eyes.
Whenever she is looked at by him with those eyes, Chen Lisha will feel a kind of panic in her heart that the ugliness in her heart will be seen through by the child. She is even more annoyed. unhappy.
Zhuang Wei grew up day by day, but his mother's attitude towards him was up and down.
That woman was very beautiful, always painted with exquisite and coquettish makeup, and her lips were smeared like blood.
She would speak softly to him, and would suddenly show bored looks at him.
At that time, Zhuang Wei was too young, and still had illusions about his mother. Even if he was hurt, he was willing to tremblingly reach out for a warm embrace.
Chen Lisha was sure of his point, and when she was in a good mood, she would keep instilling some negative things in her son's mind.
For example, how unreasonable your great-great-grandmother was, and how viciously she wanted to break us up; and for example, sometimes when your mother treats you coldly, it’s not because she hates you, but because she was disturbed by your great-great-grandmother and unintentionally angered you... And so on, many, many.
Zhuang Wei was young, but his mind was good, so he didn't fully listen to his mother's words.
He always took advantage of Chen Lisha's inattention and sneaked to the room on the second floor to peek at the gloomy and serious old man.
The old mistress is getting worse every day, but she still refuses to let go of the power she holds in her hands.
Probably because she realized that she didn't have much time, her attitude towards Chen Lisha became worse and worse, which also made Chen Lisha's hatred for her grow day by day.
Under the long backlog, Chen Lisha took action against the old lady.
Taking advantage of the absence of the servants, she sneaked up to the second floor. Knowing that the old man had a heart attack, she deviated from her usual submissive manner, hurled insults at the old lady, and vividly described what she had heard about the dealer's dirty stories come out.
The old lady could bear it at first, but who knew that the woman went too far and even mentioned her dead husband, which was her biggest regret.
Suddenly out of breath, the old lady had a heart attack.
Chen Lisha looked at the old man who rolled over from the bed and curled up in pain, showing a momentary panic.
In an instant, she regained her composure, brushed her newly permed hair, and left the room.
At that time, Xiao Zhuangwei happened to be playing in the cubicle of the old lady's room. After witnessing everything through the crack of the door, he was stunned for a few seconds, then ran out on short legs, pushed and shoved the distressed old man, and followed the instructions from Take out the first aid equipment from the bedside table.
After the incident, Chen Lisha was somewhat frightened and fidgeted in the hall downstairs.
Whenever a servant came upstairs with cleaning tools, her heart skipped a beat, looking forward to the screaming news from the other side of the ceiling.
However, several minutes passed and nothing happened.
Instead, a mighty medical team arrived.
Strange to say, since the old lady was sent to the hospital that day, her health has improved day by day.
When I come back two months later, the first thing I do is to drive Lisa Chen out.
At that time, Xiao Zhuangwei, who was less than three years old, was standing at the gate of the mansion, looking at his mother lying on the ground and crying in a daze.
Chen Lisha yelled at him over and over again, mom only has you, please go with mom, mom loves you so much, mom can't lose you.
Xiao Zhuangwei looked back at his great-great-grandmother, feeling shaken. In his heart, his mother was alone, and his great-great-grandmother was accompanied by Aunt Li in the kitchen, Mama Zhang, the gardener, and even his father who rarely hugged him.
The old mistress saw the hesitation in his heart, and it was a lie to say that he was not disappointed. She didn't give the child any time to hesitate, so she pushed him out cruelly, and closed the door with a bang.
The child doesn't have the ability to distinguish right from wrong, she wants him to see what his mother's true face is.
Chen Lisha took Zhuang Wei out of the old house and returned to the small suite where she lived when she was pregnant.
She is used to living in a beautiful and luxurious big house, how can she bear the crampedness of today, she is getting irritable and irritable every day, looking forward to Zhuang Yi's arrival more than ever.
Zhuang Wei didn't like to make a sound as before, he squatted in the corner with his knees hugged, watching the woman who was humming and never tired of trying on new clothes.
He found that since he followed him here, his mother's attitude towards him had become cold.
Just like a new toy given to him by his great-great-grandmother, he always puts it aside after a brief moment of enthusiasm and interest, and only takes it out to touch when he thinks of it occasionally.
No, he is not even as good as a toy. My mother would only hug him and tease him a few times when my father came, her eyes were cold and threatening, and she didn't really like to touch him.
Zhuang Wei hid his disappointment, the hope in his heart was like a candle, already flickering, it only needed one breath, and it would be extinguished, and could never be ignited again.
The weather was fine that day, but because my father didn't come, my mother's face was covered with clouds, and she transferred all her anger on him.
Xiao Zhuangwei was four years old at the time, and his ears were ringing from the slap, and he lay on the ground for a long time and couldn't get up.
Chen Lisha reached out and grabbed the child, grabbed him by the neck, and stared fiercely, "Look at your father, I have only been away from the dealer for a long time, and he was seduced by the little vixen. Do you think you will be the same when you grow up?" This virtue, huh?"
After that slap, Chen Lisha hasn't touched Xiao Zhuangwei for a long time.
Because the father came.
Zhuang Yi tasted the delicate little flowers outside, and remembered the mature roses that gave birth to him, but after a long time, he always felt that the fragrance was tacky, and it lost the freshness of the previous one, and gradually, it stopped coming.
Chen Lisha tried all kinds of methods, but to no avail, her temper became worse and worse, and she began to drink to relieve her worries.
Zhuang Wei doesn't like the smell of wine, whenever he sees his mother picking up a wine bottle, he hides away, sometimes in the corner of his small room, sometimes behind the sofa.
He will show two eyes and watch secretly.
The mother drank more and more alcohol, and the frequency of drunken madness began to increase frequently. She would sit on the ground and scream, scratch her hair, and violently smash things at home.
Until one day, when there was nothing more to smash at home, she set her sights on the child.
No matter how she pinches and pushes, the child never cries or fusses, even if tears are rolling in his eyes, he can still bite his lips and keep silent.
This is a silent confrontation.
Chen Lisha always felt that she was very ugly reflected in those eyes, like a monster with teeth and claws.
One day, she finally screamed unbearably, "Don't look! Don't look at me like that!"
Zhuang Wei suddenly laughed, "Mom, you look so ugly."
No matter how weak or kind a person is, they will start to resist after a long period of torture. Zhuang Wei's words are like a curse, making Chen Lisha miserable.
She pushed the child away and rushed into the bathroom, touching her face with trembling hands.
The woman in the mirror has disheveled hair, black eye bags, part of the lipstick on her lips has been wiped off, the thick foundation is dark and light, and the whole face is colorful, like a disgusting palette.
Chen Lisha screamed like venting, picked up the skin care product bottle on the sink and smashed the mirror.
At that time, Xiao Zhuangwei was over seven years old, and he stood motionless at the door of the bathroom, with no emotion in his dark eyes.
Chen Lisha rushed out and just knocked him down. She picked him up, her bright red nails pinched at the child's arm, "You say I'm ugly? For whom did I become what I am today! It's all because You, because you are a fool, useless trash! As long as you are more obedient and can coax people, your father will not ignore us! Zhuang Wei, you are a trash, no, you are a monster! Can’t cry , won't make trouble, standing in the corner like a ghost..."
It seems that in order to verify Chen Lisha's words, Zhuang Yi suddenly appeared one night, gave him a sum of money, and said that he would cut off contact, and he never showed up again.
Holding a check that couldn't fill the gap of desire, Chen Lisha was in terrific pain, and her alcoholism became worse and worse. In order to avenge that cold-hearted heartless man, she began to take the man home.
One today, one tomorrow, and Zhuang Wei will always be like a statue, not making a sound, not stopping, standing aside and watching coldly.
That night, Chen Lisha took the man home again. As soon as she entered the door, she saw her son who was locked at home holding a bowl of instant noodles that he didn't know where to find.
Hearing the noise, the child turned his head and glanced at her.
Another look, another look!
There was sarcasm and sneer in those dark eyes.
She pushed away the man who was hugging her, rushed to the small square dining table, grabbed the child's clothes and dragged him to the ground.
"What kind of eyes do you have! I said, you are not allowed to look at me like that!" Chen Lisha roared.
Xiao Zhuangwei was silent, motionless, his eyes were terribly quiet.
"I tell you to close your eyes!"
Chen Lisha shouted loudly, and completely lost her mind in anger. After pushing and shoving a few times, she grabbed the child's hair and slammed his head against the wall.
One stroke, two strokes... At the third stroke, Zhuang Wei suddenly grabbed her arm and bit hard, and Chen Lisha's wrist was immediately bleeding.
In pain, she let go of her hand, and the child took the opportunity to bump her away and rushed out the door.
It was cloudy and cold outside. Zhuang Wei didn't wear a coat when he went out, and he wore sandals and slippers. Everyone who passed by would look at him, but no one was willing to help him, asking him if he was cold.
Located in the suburbs, there are not as many vehicles coming and going as in the urban area. As the sky gets darker, the roads are even more sparsely populated, but on every street corner, there are always young people squatting on the ground in sleek clothes.
Every time they passed by, the young people always whistled at Xiao Zhuangwei, and there were a few who owed him a hand and pinched his face.
Zhuang Wei had a tough temper, and bravely hid twice, but was beaten up, the corner of his mouth was broken, and one eye was swollen.
He continued to move forward with a limp step, and arrived at the gate of an orphanage.
The people living in this kind of place were all homeless children, and he felt that he was no different from those children, but it was late at night, and the iron gate was locked, and he was so small that he couldn't get in at all.
Just when he was about to leave, a group of children came running from a distance and stopped in front of a bush outside an old building.
The bushes were lush and green, and after they were separated by the children, a child who was a year or two younger than Zhuang Wei emerged from it.
The child has red lips and white teeth, and clear and moist eyes, like two small crystal grapes.
But when he looked at the smiling faces all around him, he was scrutinizing, making people think that he seemed like a little adult who knew everything.
Xiao Zhuangwei had never seen such a beautiful child before, his eyes were easily attracted, he put his feet up, grabbed the guardrail, and stretched his neck to look inside.
It was probably because his eyes were too obvious, or it was just a pure coincidence that the child suddenly looked in his direction.
Xiao Zhuangwei was taken aback for a moment, then hugged his knees and squatted on the ground with a guilty conscience.
He moved his ears and heard the group of children calling out a name, Li Yu.
"I don't know which two words it is..."
Zhuang Wei muttered and squatted for a while, couldn't help standing up again, and found that the group of children were bullying that child.
Sometimes, he felt that Chen Lisha was right in scolding him, that he was indeed like a monster, and he was always lacking in interest and empathy for the people and things around him.
And at this moment, he was nosy for the first time, and shouted at the top of his voice, "The dean is here! The dean is here!"
The biggest thing in the orphanage is the director. She can criticize and punish them, and the children are afraid of her.
Before the shout came from nowhere, the little kids around Li Yu disappeared.
After Xiao Zhuangwei shouted, he was also worried about being discovered, so he hid under the small tree next to him, waited and waited, and seeing the orphanage was quiet, he slowly stuck his head out.
In an instant, his eyes widened suddenly, and he forgot to react. There was an extra person in the guardrail that was supposed to be empty.
Li Yu pursed his lips, and looked at the bruised little boy strangely, remembering that the dean told him to be polite and repay every kindness, he looked at the little boy and said, "Thank you."
A thank you is obviously not enough to offset the other party's help. After all, if this person hadn't helped him, his current situation would probably be bruised and swollen.
After thinking about it, Li Yu said with a blank face, "Do you feel pain? Let me get you some medicine."
Xiao Zhuangwei looked at the white and beautiful little brother in front of him, kicked his toes on the ground, lowered his head and let out a low voice.
Looking up again, the little boy had already left, leaving only a short figure behind.
Xiao Zhuangwei was a little disappointed, wondering if the other party heard the sound he answered just now...
The moon had risen very high in the sky, and unknown little moths were flying under the street lamps. Zhuang Wei was in pain all over, leaning against the low wall, and sat on the ground unconsciously, with his head tilted and his eyelids fighting.
Suddenly the corner of his mouth became cold, and he opened his eyes vigilantly.
Li Yu came out of the orphanage at some point, and was squatting in front of him, using a cotton swab dipped in liquid medicine to wipe his wound.
Every place that the potion rubbed was cool and still a little painful, but he didn't dare to make a sound, for fear that if he made a sound, the other party would think he was too troublesome and let him wipe it off by himself.
Applying medicine to people is too new for Li Yu, he can't take his eyes off and is very focused.
"All right."
A childish voice sounded, Xiao Zhuangwei pursed his lips, raised his eyelids to meet the child's beautiful eyes, and now he felt that the potion at the corner of his mouth was no longer cold, it was a little hot, and even his face was burning.
He lowered his head, clutched his clothes with his fingers, and whispered thank you.
Li Yu nodded, and said in an adult tone, "Go home, I'm going in."
After speaking, the person left without any regrets.
Xiao Zhuangwei froze in place, feeling a little lost. His great-great-grandmother had hugged him before, but she had never touched him so tenderly. At that time, only the cold servants in the house took care of him.
Not to mention Zhuang Yi, as a father, the number of times he has been hugged can be counted on the fingers.
As for the mother... Xiao Zhuangwei lowered his head again, touched the sticky potion at the corner of his mouth with his little hand, and felt a little aftertaste in his heart.
It was the first time someone treated him so well, so lightly, so softly applied medicine for him.
Zhuang Wei found a corner sheltered from the wind, and covered himself with a torn newspaper from the garbage dump. As long as he looked up, he could see whether the children came out of the orphanage building to play.
He wanted to wait until dawn to ask that little boy if he would like to be friends with him.
