Father & Son Ch. 36

Prev | Directory | Next

It was ridiculous. When he was thirteen years old, his father threw him out and told him that the Cheng family man would be self-reliant at the age of thirteen. He would work to earn money to support himself, and the Cheng family would not raise weak things!

Cheng Hai's face was stained with black, and he remembered all the disrespect of the boy Cheng Mu in his previous life. In particular, he questioned the problem between him and his daughter-in-law. The black air became cold again.

"Cheng Mu, you already 14 years old, and you are a man." Cheng Hai said quietly.

Cheng Mu does not understand, only understand the literal, "So what."

"It means that from now on, I can provide you with the expenses for your study until you reach the age of 18, and the pocket money will not be given to you from now on. If you want pocket money, you can work by yourself."

"What are you talking about?"

"The Cheng family's motto is that men in the Cheng family should learn to be independent when they are 13 years old. The Cheng family doesn't support weak things. Unless you want to be a reformer, it's good enough for me to make you happy until you are 14 years old."

"What!"

"It's the old house. Get off."

Ning Xue and her husband Cheng Zhong were sitting in the living room, enjoying afternoon tea and reading the newspaper leisurely. Their expressions were quite pleasant. Although it was ordinary thing, there was a warm feeling between them.

"Why did you cut off my pocket money?"

Suddenly, a low scream made Ning Xue shook her hand and spilled some of the water in the cup. Father Cheng frowned and stared at the door. There were two people standing.

"What are you yelling about?"

Cheng Mu froze, stared at Cheng Hai, turned to the two elders with ugly expressions and said, "He... dad said he would cut off my pocket money."

Cheng Mu said, but he didn't think that the two elders looked bad. He thought that as the older grandson, even if he was not close to the elders, he would at least get the support of the elders!

Unfortunately, he was wrong.

Cheng Zhong and Ning Xue had a hard time when they were young. Cheng Zhong was in a military family. Soldiers were honest and hardworking. At that time, the elders were stricter than him. So what kind of pocket money and a good childhood?

Ning Xue was a woman when she was born. It was a blessing and a misfortune to be a woman in this era. Otherwise, if she hadn't meet Cheng Zhong, she may also be sold by her parents!

"That's it? Your father has been thrown away by me since he was 13 years old. He does odd jobs to support himself for three meals. You are much happier than him. You didn't start until the age of 14."

Cheng Mu's face was stiff, with disbelief in his eyes, he suddenly wondered whether if he was born to this family?

Cheng Mu, who was more and more unhappy, doesn't think about it. He doesn't usually come to the old house to get along with his elders. As soon as he entered the house, he screamed at his grandmother, and he doesn't even greet his grandparents, so he just asked for money!

Rhetorically, how could the elder who has worked hard for most of their life help to speak?

Therefore, the basics of life were failures, and even half of life was a failure!

Cheng Mu was really depressed. He couldn't figure out why his father, who doesn't appear often, was irresponsible enough. This time, he was going to cut off his pocket money, especially when he was 18 years old and he was going to earn money for his studies!

Wasn't that too much!?

Cheng Mu's face looked very terrible. Seeing that no one wanted to stand on his side this time, he snorted and ran to his room on the second floor!

Cheng Hai was lazy to pay attention to his son, but turned to look at his parents, "Mom and dad, how about our family eating out today? Son will find a big meal to honor you two!"

Ning Xue was taken aback and smile, "Don't, you can save some money for your old age."

Cheng Hai smiled when he heard the words. "Mom, how can you say that? I earn money to support my family. Besides, I didn't take my parents to a big meal once. Ah, I can show off to my uncles. See how filial I am!"

Ning Xue laughed loudly when he heard the words, but Cheng Zhong gave him a blank look, but there was a smile in his eyes, "Don't you think it's a shame what you said?"

"That's the truth!"

"You sly man!" Ning Xue sang with a smile.

At this time, the butler brought the snacks over, and the glass plate was placed on the table with a soft sound. Cheng Hai noticed and raised his face and smiled, "Uncle, I'll take my parents to dinner. Please tell everyone that they should rest tonight!"

The butler nodded when he heard it, and then asked instead, "Is little master go along?"

Cheng Hai restrained his smile before thinking about it, "Ask him if he wants to go or not."

"Yes, young master."

As soon as Cheng Mu entered the room, he rushed into the bed and beat the quilt on the bed, making his face flushed with anger. He felt that the quilt was not enough, and went to knock down the table and chair.

*Knock knock*

"Come in!"

As soon as the butler came in, he saw a mess. He was stunned for a moment, and immediately said with no expression on his face, "The young master will go to the restaurant with the old lady later, he asked do you want to go too?"

Cheng Mu's face turned dark when he heard that he cried strangely, "He has money to eat big meals, but he is strict with my pocket money!"

"..." The butler who suffered the impact with a blank expression, repeated plainly, "Is little master going?"
