Ye Lai tried shaking hands several times. She looked at the words on her palm, and a smile gradually appeared in her eyes, "Then you can't run away?"
"Yeah." The look on Feng Yan's face became softer.
"Sir, the old lady is looking for you." The person who called him was the housekeeper of the Feng family.
"Have a rest and I'll be back soon."
Ye Lai nodded, didn't ask more questions, didn't talk too much, and didn't follow.
The housekeeper led him all the way to the Feng Family Ancestral Hall.
As soon as you enter the main entrance, there are incense and candles placed in front of the memorial tablets of your ancestors.
Grandma Feng's back was facing the door, and her back looked particularly lonely and old. The white-haired old man was holding a string of Buddhist beads in his hand.
"Grandma." Feng Yan came over.
Grandma Feng didn't look back, her voice was extremely majestic: "Kneel down."
On the round mat, Feng Yan knelt down without hesitation, showing no disrespect to his ancestors.
Grandma Feng said: "Back then..."
She paused, as if she didn't want to mention those past events, "Your father had a private relationship with that woman, and I had a happy-go-lucky attitude, but my mother-in-law strongly opposed it, because that woman had an ordinary family background, and she
I'm not outstanding enough, and I can't bring much benefit to the Feng family or your father."
"Later, I spoke for your father, but my mother-in-law reprimanded me. Finally, she forced your father to arrange a blind date with your mother, and even threatened that if your father didn't marry your mother, the family property would not be handed over to him."
"Your father did not resist the pressure, married your mother, and became pregnant with you less than a year after the marriage. As for the fact that he had a son outside, we did not know."
Grandma Feng turned around at this time, her old and turbid eyes were full of pain, "Xiao Yan, grandma doesn't want to do what my mother-in-law did back then, but you have also seen the fact that your mother is indeed worthy of Feng."
The wife of the family, regardless of their relationship as husband and wife, the Feng family’s career is booming, so they are a well-matched couple.”
"Grandma doesn't look down on that girl, but she really can't help you with anything. I heard that she doesn't respect your father, and now she has hurt you like that. How can she be a good wife and mother?"
After talking for a long time, Feng Yan knelt down and stared at the tablets.
"grandmother."
Grandma Feng looked down at him.
The man's eyes did not waver at all, "In your eyes, whether a family is prosperous or not depends entirely on the wife?"
"Of course!" Grandma Feng said with certainty.
"What about the men?" Feng Yan frowned, "If the family is prosperous, why don't you say that the men in the family are incompetent and not good enough? Why should it all be blamed on one woman?"
"Since you mentioned my father, I might as well talk to you." Feng Yan suddenly stood up.
It seems that when talking about those old things, Feng Yan is not willing to kneel in front of his ancestors.
His voice was deep: "I think it was the most wrong thing for Feng Zhengyang to marry my mother. You said that my mother made the Feng family prosperous. Is that true? It is obviously my mother who has been tolerant. She has been tolerant since I was a few years old.
What has been exchanged for now is that Feng Zhengyang himself is excellent? What is outstanding about him? Does he have outstanding academic qualifications or a good character? Don't you and grandpa know how much he lost in the years when he took over the family business?
"
"Grandma, you can't trade a woman's lifetime happiness for your so-called prosperity of the family. That's too insulting."
"As for whether I can do it or not, whether I can keep the Feng family standing, that's my ability, Feng Yan, and it has nothing to do with the people I like. Even if the Feng family goes bankrupt, it's because I don't have the ability and I can't blame anyone else."
After finishing speaking, Feng Yan bowed to the tablets of his ancestors.
He turned around and left, but when he reached the threshold of the ancestral hall, he stopped again, and his tone was a bit sad.
"If I could go back in time, even if I didn't come to this world, I would rather my mother not marry him."
Grandma Feng's pupils trembled, and her old body swayed.
-
Feng Yan looked downcast as he walked out of the ancestral hall.
In his impression, the image of his father, Feng Zhengyang, was always that he would go out early and come home late, get drunk, argue constantly with his mother, and yell.
He doesn't care about him or his wife, he only cares about his lover and illegitimate child.
But Feng Yan had seen how Feng Zhengyang looked kindly to Jiang Yi, how he carried Jiang Yi and rode on his neck, and how he accompanied Jiang Yi and the woman's family to play happily in the amusement park.
When he was growing up, he did not have the protection and companionship of his father.
There was just endless yelling and denunciation.
In fact, looking at it from another perspective, in Feng Zhengyang's eyes, he is the child who should not have come into this world.
Putting aside all identities, just looking at their relationship as the previous generation, his mother was indeed a latecomer.
Therefore, he looked down upon Feng Zhengyang and even wished for his death.
If he doesn't want to, don't marry him. If he does, then don't engage in all kinds of things. Why do he have to let so many people pay for his greed?
"gentlemen?"
Liu Tan had been looking for him for a long time. He had followed Feng Yan for several years and knew the affairs at home. He guessed that the old lady was looking for him to talk about Miss Ye Lai.
He was afraid that his husband would be in a bad mood.
Feng Yan sat on a chair in the courtyard of his old house, letting the cold wind blow and howl. He looked at everything around him in a daze.
"Feng Yan!!!"
A roar came out, making Feng Yan's temples jump hard.
That roar again.
From childhood to adulthood.
He turned his head and saw Feng Zhengyang rushing over with a stick.
Liu Tan was so frightened that he immediately stood in front of Feng Yan, that was the Feng family's ring stick!
It is made of solid wood and is very thick and heavy. One hit on a person can render him unable to move for ten and a half days.
When Feng Zhengyang learned that Grandma Feng had collapsed in the ancestral hall, he felt that Feng Yan was angry.
"You traitor! Are you angry with your grandma?" Feng Zhengyang pointed at Liu Tan angrily, "Get out of my way!"
"Mr. Feng, I..."
"Liu Tan, get out of the way." Feng Yan suddenly spoke.
Liu Tan and Feng Zhengyang were both startled.
Feng Yan didn't move and sat calmly on the chair, "Let him beat me. After this beating, the relationship between father and son between us will be over."
"You!" Feng Zhengyang's face turned red with anger.
Feng Yan slowly raised his head. There was no anger on his face when he faced him for the first time. He was calm, "Dad."
Feng Zhengyang was stunned by this sound, and he tightened his grip on the ring stick slightly.
"I remember your appearance from the beginning. You were very kind and very kind to me. You would play with me, buy me delicious food, buy me new clothes during the New Year, and set off small fireworks with me. I hurt you when I fell
He will pick me up and coax me."
Feng Yan lowered his head, "But it changed later. You became ferocious and angry all the time. You even looked at me with disgust in your eyes. I have never been sorry to you. I worked hard to take the exam.
Study, I am the best among the children of your brothers and friends."
