"Things with poor eyesight have been living in dogs over the years.
I'm sorry, I said it wrong, I shouldn't have said that."
When Wen Renxuanhe heard his old man's words behind him, he couldn't help but feel relieved, thinking to himself, you have forgiven me.
However, before he had time to be happy, Wen Renzheng's next words brought him back to his original state.
"Dogs have better eyesight than you.
Those dogs that I raised back then were much more discerning than you."
Wen Renzheng treated Wen Renxuanhe mercilessly, lit his tobacco, crossed his legs and puffed leisurely.
Wen Renxuan and the old man's face flushed and they twitched the corners of their mouths a few times, then squatted down next to the stone bench and smoked dry cigarettes.
However, the taste of this dry cigarette is getting worse and worse.
"Dad, it's almost done.
From the moment you came in, you never gave me a good look. Is this necessary?"
"Yes, of course.
Why, you've only been working hard for a while and you can't stand it anymore?
Shu'er has been wronged for decades, doesn't he just come over the same way?"
"Dad, what happened back then..."
"you shut up."
"Okay, okay, shut up, just shut up."
Wen Renzheng flicked the cigarette ashes on his body, stood up and walked to the edge of the pavilion with his pipe in his hand and stopped.
"I don't deny that what happened back then is indeed slightly related to this girl Shu'er.
But the issues related to Shu'er are nothing compared to the whole thing.
This naturally includes your sworn brotherhood.
Use your pig brain and think about why those people ended up like that.
Among them, naturally, we Wen Renjia are also included.
Those people back then, including your sworn brother, ended up with their families broken up and their families destroyed?
Is it because we heard about others? Is it because of Shu'er?
No, it's not.
It's because they became the King of Shu Party for the sake of power, glory and wealth, and advancement to a higher level.
Involved in the rebellion of King Shu.
Their ending is very pitiful and worthy of lamentation.
However, they are not innocent.
Of all the things, apart from Shu'er's fault of running away from her marriage, tell me, what other faults did she make?
Ah? What other mistakes has she made that could affect the King of Shu?"
"I!"
"You bastard, I'll tell you later.
If Shu'er didn't run away from the marriage, you wouldn't have left the capital and gone to Jinling in the south of the Yangtze River just to chase her.
If you don't leave the capital, you will inevitably be involved in the King of Shu's rebellion.
Once you are involved in King Shu's eucalyptus, can you squat here and smoke without any harm?
Don't say it's you, even the old man...
Hahaha, forget it, you can figure it out yourself."
"me!"
"You bastard, I will tell you clearly.
Although Shuer made a mistake by escaping from marriage, it also indirectly saved our Wenren family.
It can be said that if Shuer had not escaped from marriage, you and Yulan would have become a pile of dead bones that no one cares about.
You are indeed very talented in martial arts, and your reading skills are not bad either.
But in officialdom, you are far behind in your thinking and overall perspective.
Even if the King of Shu thing had not happened at the beginning, with your political acumen, you would not have been able to go far in the court.
That’s all I have to say, think about it for yourself.”
After Wen Renxuanhe listened to his old man's heartfelt words, his expressions were tangled and he looked at the scenery outside the pavilion with confusion.
Outside the door of Wenren Mansion.
Liu Zhengwen squatted on the steps, holding his chin with his hands and looking boredly at the young master Liu and his wife who were talking softly.
"Father, mother, how long do we have to wait? Are grandpa, grandma and the others not at home?"
When Liu Mingzhi heard his son's boring inquiry, he frowned slightly and looked at the door in front of him.
Seeing the door that was still closed, he murmured with a somewhat confused look on his face: "What's going on? Could it be that the old man didn't receive the letter from me?
Or should I say, the old man has already..."
"Husband, what are you talking to yourself about?"
Liu Mingzhi chuckled, shook his head, and reached out to hold the beautiful woman's wrist.
"I didn't say anything. I was just wondering whether my father-in-law and mother-in-law would receive our family of three this time."
Wenren Yunshu held her husband's generous palm tightly with her backhand and looked toward the door melancholy.
"Husband."
"Um?"
"If... if I say goodbye again... let's go back to Beijing.
It’s okay for me to feel a little wronged, but I don’t want you and your son to feel wronged along with me.
If you don’t see me, then you will see me. I still have you and your sisters with you..."
Before Wenren Yunshu finished speaking, Liu Mingzhi suddenly put his finger up to his mouth and hissed softly, raised his head and pursed his lips in the direction of the door.
"Shh, Shu'er, there are footsteps, or two footsteps."
Wenren Yunshu's pretty face suddenly became happy and she hurriedly looked at the door in front of her.
The look in her beautiful eyes is both expectant and uneasy.
Liu Mingzhi loosened his grip on the beautiful woman's wrist and straightened his clothes with an indifferent expression.
"coming."
Liu Mingzhi's voice fell, and the door that was originally ajar opened.
In the nervous gazes of Liu Mingzhi and Wenren Yunshu, a figure hurriedly walked out and headed straight for them.
It was Liu Yulan, the mother of Wenren Yunshu.
Liu Yulan walked quickly to a few steps away from the two of them and stopped, her body trembling slightly as she looked at Wenren Yunshu, who was also looking excited. A trace of tears could be seen faintly in her bright eyes.
"Shu'er, Shu'er."
Wenren Yunshu could not help but raise her feet and walk forward, staring at the familiar yet unfamiliar mother in front of her with an excited look on her pretty face.
A pair of beautiful eyes also condensed clearly visible water mist.
"mother."
Liu Yulan nodded heavily, and her slender and well-maintained hands tremblingly touched her daughter's cheek.
"It's been twenty-three years. It's been twenty-three years. You've made me miss you so hard as your mother!"
The tears accumulated in Wen Ren Yunshu's eyes finally couldn't help but fall down.
To be continued...
