Father & Son Ch. 29
Cheng Hai laughed and looked at the happy old caretaker. He had to help him with his luggage. Of course, Cheng Hai doesn't dare to let the old man took it.
"Ah, uncle, this is for my father and mother. It's not luggage. I don't have any luggage in the army. You know that!"
The old caretaker laughed, "Yes! Then I won't take it! But young master, the old lady has gone out and will come back later! "
Cheng Hai was surprised to hear that, "Mother is out? She..."
Cheng Hai wanted to say that his mother was unwell, but he stopped in time, because "now" he didn't know his mother's condition. He didn't know it until he retired a year later. He also learned it from the old caretaker.
"Yes, young master, you don't know that the old lady has not been in good health these years. She has been resting all the time! As a result, when she heard that you were coming back yesterday, she immediately went out early in the morning to buy vegetables and cook a delicious meal for the young master!"
Cheng Hai was silent and didn't speak. He passed the old caretaker. No one saw the heavy regret on Cheng Hai's handsome face...
Thinking of the scenes back then, the old caretaker told his mother about her illness, but the tone was not like this, but angrily pointed at him and cursed him.
"Young master, for the sake of the adopted son You Liqing, who didn't know how to repay his parents' kindness, he didn't care about his own parents for several years. He didn't show up until she died. What kind of face do you have, young master!!"
When Cheng Hai walked into the hall, an old figure was slowly reflected in his eyes. When he reacted, he had knelt down in front of his father and met the old surprised face.
"Ah Hai!" Cheng Zhong was surprised to see his tall son kneeling down in front of him. He couldn't react at all.
"Dad..." his coarse voice was low and awkward, "I'm sorry, I'm unfilial..."
Cheng Zhong was dumbfounded for a long time before he regained his mind. He looked at his son and noticed the thick shadow under his eyelids. He frowned and sighed.
"Get up."
Cheng Hai didn't move.
Cheng Zhong raised his hand and wiped his face, he helplessly said, "Your mother doesn't like You Liqing as a daughter-in-law. This is uncontrollable, but it is not your fault. But your mother has begun to learn... to accept him, you will be relieved."
Cheng Hai froze, was silent for a while, and then said blankly, "I have thought about it seriously. It is the duty of my wife to do housework for the family. Besides, there are servants in the family, and Ah Qing can’t do much. Over the years, I... did not handle it properly."
Hearing this, Cheng Zhong was stunned for a while. Then he laughed and patted him on the shoulder, "Get up, how can a man kneel casually!"
"It makes you sad... it's son's fault, because I didn't handle it well." Cheng Hai lowered his face and hid his indescribable regret. What passed through his mind was that when he rushed home, he only received the news of his mother's death, the scream of his father, and the accusation of the old caretaker who loved him most.
Cheng Zhong didn't understand what was wrong with the boy. He couldn't make sense of it, so he rolled his eyes angrily, "Well, you brat, I'm not used to it! Get out of here!"
When Cheng Hai heard the words, he realized that he missed the old man's rude voice very much. Then he smirked and stood up. Cheng Zhong gave him another look.
"You brat is lack scolding!"
Cheng Hai was smiling happily, "Yes, I owe you a scolding."

At this time, on the other side...
On the main road, a middle-aged woman was walking with a vegetable basket in both hands. The sun made her face sweat and look very hard. Her face was unhealthy and pale, but her eyes were bright and her lips were still smiling. Obviously, she was very happy.
She didn’t care that people passing by gave her surprised eyes, and she didn’t notice that the people on the road were almost all men, except for occasional women, but she was accompanied by several guards, and it was because of if it made her particularly conspicuous.
When Li Xiao came out of the restaurant with a bitter face, he saw this middle-aged beautiful woman. What's more, he saw several men looking at her obscene all the time, and they were still approaching her.
In this era, women were too precious, because they represent the inheritance of the family, and the transformation of men was not as good as them, especially those developed and beautiful women!
In the age of scarcity of women, if a woman was born in a rich family, her life would be good. At least the family would keep her. But if she was born in a poor family, it would be a kind of misfortune. Maybe not even be able to took a step out of the bedroom at home, and she would be locked in the family all her life.
Even if it was an old woman, the eggs could also be cultivated artificially!
Li Xiao didn't want to step forward quickly to block in the middle and gently spoke to the beautiful woman.
"Auntie, let me carry the bag for you."
Ning Xue turned her head to look at the person and saw a pair of very clear and upright eyes meeting her gaze. At the same time, she also noticed several men not far away, all of them staring at her wickedly.
With a gentle smile, Ning Xue just wanted to say something. The men had already gathered around, surrounded the two of them, and laughed.
"Well, do these two beautiful husband and wife want to go there? Uncle like to invite you to have a cup of tea to give a face."
