The sky has been covered with dark clouds for a long time, and the cold wind is blowing quietly and ravaging all things on the earth. Occasionally, flowers and flowers fall from the sky.
Behind the courtyard house in the western suburbs of Chenghe City, a path covered with broken snow winds up the mountain. The trees on both sides are withered and yellow, and their straight branches are swaying under the raging cold wind, destroying the few trees.
The falling snow swung down.
A young man wearing a black coat and a crew cut walked slowly along the path, stepping on the broken snow and facing the cold wind.
In this cold winter day, this scene feels quite desolate and lonely.
Yes, Xing Zhengyang is very lonely.
After returning from the capital, he came directly to live in this courtyard house. He did not go back to Shuanghe Village. He just made a phone call to tell him that he had something to do and that he would be back in a few days.
He is not angry now because he was punished by the thunder calamity brought by Tian Tiao, as long as his life was not taken away. Having experienced a trip to Heaven and knowing the history of Heaven and the gods through the city scrolls, Xu Zhengyang certainly knows,
Tian Tiao was created jointly by countless super powerful gods, just like today's reincarnation of the underworld, although it has shortcomings, it is still running slowly and steadily.
Although Xu Zhengyang had just gritted his teeth and said that he would tear down the rules of heaven sooner or later, but after thinking about it, the rules of heaven were yes. Ordinary people in the world also know the so-called truth that there is no rule without rules.
What's more, Xu Zhengyang is not a fool or a self-righteous person.
Therefore, Xu Zhengyang complained that Cheng Juan did not remind him, but that he himself neglected the rules of heaven that Cheng Juan had clearly reminded him of.
If the gods had not joined forces to establish Tiandong to restrict the behavior of the gods in the mortal world and the behavior of humans, I am afraid that the world would have been in chaos long ago: mortals would work hard to become immortals, ascend to heaven, and gain eternal life.
That is tantamount to shaking the foundation of God's existence; and if God interferes too much in the affairs of the human world, it will easily cause disputes and cause chaos in the human world. Historical wars between humans and wars among gods in heaven have already been explained.
All this.
Putting aside the most original thoughtless god in the Hongmeng period of the universe, in the final analysis, gods originate from the secular world, whether they are monsters, demons, or gods and men achieved through Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism, they are all created by humans; and in the later stages of heaven, gods
The existence of the world began to use its boundless magical power to maintain the overall order of the secular world. The rules of heaven and the reincarnation of the underworld."
Let’s turn to the very painful question of chicken laying the egg and the egg laying the chicken.
Therefore, Xu Zhengyang is not thinking about breaking the rules of heaven, but repairing and improving the rules of heaven that have been damaged in some places.
From a selfish point of view, Xu Zhengyang does not want another god to appear in this world one day.
Now that the gods in the human world can be promoted, one day Bao Buqi will show up again and become an immortal through cultivation.
In that case, not to mention the inevitable disputes between them over resources, that is, the faith power required for the gods to survive, harmonious coexistence is just wishful thinking.
Because God is also selfish!
Just like Emperor Yama in the underworld and the emperors in heaven and even the king of heaven, they are not bound by the rules of heaven and reincarnation in the underworld.
Who can I talk to to reason with you?
So the concept of fairness, from a broad perspective. People are pursuing fairness but can never get absolute fairness; from a broad perspective, there is no fairness at all.
As a result, the concept of fairness that people pursue and yearn for is actually a pale and empty fantasy.
Xu Zhengyang felt a lot of pressure.
But my self-confidence is also much greater. Moreover, I can see further, have more goals, and am no longer confused!
I don't know when the cold wind stopped, and the scattered snowflakes began to become more and more dense, flying one after another, and the mountains and fields were soon covered with a layer of silvery white.
Sitting next to the stone table that originally existed on Wangshan Mountain was no longer the old man, but Xu Zhengyang, a young man who was less than twenty-six years old.
Heavy snow fell on the stone table, on and around the young man. At the bottom of the mountain, a taxi stopped at the door of the courtyard.
Two middle-aged couples who looked about fifty years old got out of the car and stood at the door of the courtyard. The couple looked a little stunned.
The wooden courtyard door was closed and the small door opened, and a man in his thirties wearing a black suit came out. His expression was calm but alert, and he warned the two middle-aged couples to leave.
Little brother, we are Xu Zhengyang's parents, and we came to see him for something." Xu Neng hunched over and said with a flattering smile.
As the guards who came here with Jiang Lan, Chen Hanzhe and Zhu Jun who came with him were in the same low mood. However, their bounden duty was to obey orders and could only follow the arrangements of their superiors. They were selected from the mysterious team and dispatched
Here, I am responsible for the personal safety of Zhang Zhang’s family members.
As members of this special team, Chen Shuzhe and Zhu Jun both clearly understand the mission they shoulder.
However, after many years of following the leader, they were sent to such a lonely place, where they lived as if they were at home. There were no so-called dangerous factors throughout the day, so they gradually lost some patience. At night, they just
I will vent my complaints from time to time.
For Chen Hanzhe, the name Xu Zhengyang is very familiar, but the person is very unfamiliar.
Suddenly, he heard that someone was looking for Xu Zhengyang. Chen Hanzhe was stunned for a moment, and then said calmly: "Please wait a moment."
After that, Chen Hanzhe returned to the courtyard and closed the door tightly.
After a while, Chen Hanzhe came out. He smiled and said: "Hello, uncle and auntie. Xu Zhengyang, he went to the back mountain, I will take you there.
"ah?"
The couple was stunned for a moment. It was a cold day and it was snowing. What was the son doing in the mountains behind?
Wang came back to his senses and smiled and thanked the tough young man in front of him. When he was about to go up the back mountain, he saw Xu Zhengyang turning around from the path outside the west courtyard wall.
"Father, mother, your heart is here. Xu Zhengyang smiled and said. Xu Neng hesitated and didn't know how to respond.
But Yuan Suqin said: "Hey, you've been back for two days and you still haven't come home to see us. Your father and I are worried."
"It's cold outside, let's talk inside." Xu Zhengyang smiled calmly, reached out to hold his mother's hand, then reached out to signal his father, and they walked into the courtyard together.
Naturally, Chen Hanzhe would not have any objections, because they received clear orders when they came. Xu Zhengyang is not their leader, but he has absolute rights in this courtyard. In nature, roughly
Just like the villa where the chief minister lives in the capital.
A family of three walked into the courtyard, followed by Chen Hanzhe who closed the courtyard door.
The cotton curtain in the east room was opened, and the nanny Xiao Zhou said with some surprise: "Brother Xu, are there guests today?"
"Hey, my father and my mother Xu Zhengyang responded with a smile.
Xiao Zhou is a twenty-two-year-old girl with a pure appearance. She was born as a country girl and doesn't have much thought. She is a distant relative of the nanny Wu Ma who originally lived here, so she was introduced to the Li family.
Although she is thousands of miles away from home and working outside, she is still very content because the wages she earns are higher than those of anyone in the village.
Those who work outside the home, or even those who work in state-owned enterprises in the county, have higher wages. She is young and has not seen much of the world. Although the life here is a bit monotonous and boring, she still lives a comfortable life, is not tired, and has nothing to do every day.
He only cooks and cleans up the housework, and the hostess Jiang Lan is also very approachable and does all the housework with him.
After Xu Zhengyang came these two days, Xiao Zhou realized that Xu Zhengyang was the real owner of this place.
However, Xu Zhengyang also has a gentle temperament. Although he seldom speaks, he is approachable. He always smiles when he speaks and never puts on airs.
So I heard that Xu Zhengyang’s parents were here. Sitting there, it was so cold.
Yuan Suqin and Xu Neng, who were depressed when they arrived, were moved by this simple and enthusiastic girl. They suddenly felt much more open-minded, smiled and said some polite words before entering the main room.
Jiang Lan was sitting in the room quietly reading a magazine. When she heard people talking outside, she felt a little confused, so she got up to go out and take a look. She had been busy with work every day. Although her life suddenly calmed down,
It made her feel a little sad and disappointed, but she also felt that living this kind of life was quite comfortable.
After truly integrating into this self-reliant ordinary life, she may feel easier than before in a short period of time, but as time goes by, she will miss her previous life and regret the things she once did.
If nothing else, just the loss of rights and the monotony of life would make her unbearable.
For a woman who never submits to anyone and strives to stand above everyone else, this kind of punishment is the biggest psychological blow to her.
Before Jiang Lan left the house, the door curtain opened and Xu Zhengyang stepped in, followed by the nanny Xiao Zhou and Xu Neng and Yuan Suqin.
"Auntie, my parents are here to visit today." Xu Zhengyang smiled and said politely.
Jiang Lan was stunned for a moment. In the past two days when Xu Zhengyang came to the courtyard, he had always had the same indifferent and cold expression as when he met him before. But now he suddenly became gentle. He called aunt, which made Jiang Lan feel a little bit.
Feeling flattered, I couldn't help but smile and said: "Hello."
"ah,"
Yuan Suqin and Xu Neng were obviously a little surprised. They didn't expect Li Bingjie's mother to be here. The couple suddenly felt a little cautious and fearful. After all, they had experienced the power and domineering power of this strong woman.
"Well, hello, Bingjie's mother," Yuan Suqin was, after all, much more open-minded than her own men, so she greeted with a smile.
Jiang Lan was stunned. She had never been called that before. She smiled awkwardly and said, "Sit down, sit down, I'll get you some tea."
After Yuan Suqin and Xu Neng sat down politely with embarrassment and discomfort on their faces, when they saw that Jiang Lan actually went to give them tea and water, they immediately stood up in a panic. Yuan Suqin even stepped forward to take action.
helper.
Xu Zhengyang sat on the sofa dumbfounded. He was really helpless. Jiang Lan could do this, which proved that she was indeed afraid. She was really scared! You know, let Jiang Lan give in to Yuan Suqin and Xu Neng, a coward.
The couple makes tea and pours water. If it were normal, it would be a whimsical thing.
For Jiang Lan, this was also a great humiliation.
Therefore, for a person who could only live for a few years, especially because she was Li Bingjie's mother, Xu Zhengyang really couldn't bear to let Jiang Lan suffer any more grievances.
That’s not the end yet. After making tea and pouring water, Jiang Lan said politely and humbly: “You guys chat slowly with Zhengyang first, I’ll prepare lunch, and we’ll eat here.”
After that, without waiting for Xu Neng and his wife to be polite, Jiang Lan took Xiao Zhou and walked out together.
According to the habits of rural people, Yuan Suqin originally thought of getting up quickly and going to work on lunch with Jiang Lan. But she came with her husband today and had something to talk about with her son, so she could only smile very reservedly.
Watch as Jiang Lan and Xiao Zhou are sent out.
Xu Zhengyang took out a cigarette and handed one to his father. He lit it for him, then lit one himself, placed the cigarette pack and lighter on the coffee table, and said with a smile: "Dad, Mom, how can you find it in such a cold day?"
Are you here? Something happened?
To Xu Zhengyang, these words were indeed nonsense.
Because he can roughly guess the reason why his parents came here without using his divine power to visit. And he can immediately come down from the mountain to greet his parents, isn't it because there are ghosts guarding the courtyard at all times?
"Oh, it's nothing, it's just you." Xu Neng smoked a cigarette and said in a slightly embarrassed tone. Now he can no longer use his father's authority to teach his son. It's not that Xu Zhengyang has much promise.
The reason is because of Xu Neng's originally timid character. After seeing his son, he felt a little fearful for no reason.
This is also what Xu Zhengyang is helpless about.
However, Yuan Suqin hesitated and then said: "Zhengyang, your two uncles and their construction company seem to be not doing well recently. Well, there is also your uncle." Yuan Suqin paused, considered it, and then
then
Said: "From what you Xiao Lingzi said, yes, it was your original Jinghui Logistics Company. And Ronghua Group." Oh, it was Chaojiang. What kind of leader did that kid from Chaojiang become in these two companies? They were stuck.
All the jobs were taken over
"Oh, I know this, don't worry about it." Xu Zhengyang waved off his mother's words.
Xu Neng said tentatively: "Zhengyang, if it was really arranged by you, I think let it go. They know they are wrong. After all, they are our relatives."
"Yes, yes, Zhengyang, in order to take over these jobs, your uncle and his company have purchased a lot of new machinery and equipment and added so many people. Once the job is delayed, they will have to pay for it."
, will the days pass after this?" Yuan Suqin also said.
"How to live?" Xu Zhengyang sneered: "That's their business!"
Xu Neng sighed and said, "Anyway, those are relatives,"
Xu Zhengyang raised his eyebrows. He stretched out his right index finger with a cold face and moved it back and forth a few centimeters above the coffee table. He said in a rough but cruel voice: "Relatives, relatives, you all treat them as relatives. They treat them as relatives."
Are you relatives? Ah? It will be too late to regret it now!"
After saying that, Xu Zhengyang turned his cheeks back and forth with a sullen expression, and said in a cold voice: "Stop talking anymore, Dad, Mom! You don't know, I gave them time to repent and admit their mistakes, more than twenty days! Huh? What?
Why don't you come and admit your mistake?
Our family, I, Xu Zhengyang, your son, do you care about their little money?" Xu Zhengyang frowned, looked at his parents with squinted eyes, pursed his lips slightly, and hummed a questioning sound from his nostrils.
"Um?".
"Zheng, Zhengyang" Yuan Suqin was speechless. She was also angry in her heart, but she cared too much about her siblings and the family relationship between them.
At this moment, Xu Neng showed the attitude that a father should have, and rebuked loudly: "No matter what, you can't make life difficult for your uncle and your aunt's family?"
"That's their business!" Xu Zhengyang didn't care at all about the mentality of his father and mother. He tapped his index finger on the coffee table a few times. He said in a deep voice: "This matter cannot be decided by one or two people. Two uncles
, an uncle. "Even if it's a girl or an aunt who comes to apologize and express an attitude, I won't pursue it! I'm not that stingy."
"The most hateful thing is that no one feels guilty about this!" Xu Zhengyang took a deep breath of cigarette and put out most of the remaining cigarette butt in the ashtray, "Don't think that I
I don't know anything. When I was sick, they came to my house.
How many times? My two uncles and my sister went to my house four times in total, and my aunt and uncle went to my house three times. What did they go to do? Did they go to visit me? Did they go to ask how our family's lawsuit was going, and to ask if there was anyone else at home?
No money! Ask Li Bingjie’s family if they have visited me again!”
"What are they thinking? Huh?" Xu Zhengyang looked at his parents, his tone full of stern questions.
Xu Neng and Yuan Suqin were stunned. Yes, think about it, since Zhengyang became ill, when these relatives came to the house, they would ask a few questions about Zhengyang's condition with seemingly concern, and then quickly change the topic to other topics.
aspect.
What do they care about? It’s not Zhengyang’s illness and physical condition, but whether Zhengyang can still bring benefits to them!
Is this a relative?
Outside the house, Jiang Lan grabbed Xiao Zhou who was about to go inside to pour hot water into the teapot. She shook her head and signaled Xiao Zhou to go back to the east room instead of the main room.
Jiang Lan herself was standing on the corridor, somewhat lost in thought and in a trance, listening to Xu Zhengyang's stern words in the room.
"Don't say that I'm unkind and don't recognize my relatives." Xu Zhengyang directly rejected his parents' attempts to persuade him. "Family love and affection are still there." Their family will really not be able to survive in the future, so they can still come to borrow money from home.
To provide some relief, but no
We can give them too much at once and a little less each time. Let them keep coming to borrow, and we can keep giving! But we must let them know every time that they owe our family a favor, so that they will think of it every time.
Get up and don’t forget that you have done something wrong before!”
"This is the bottom line!" Xu Zhengyang raised his index finger with a decisive expression, "Father, mother, this is because we care about family ties, otherwise they will not be able to live a basic life! So don't say anything more, don't make me too embarrassed.
Xu Neng and Yuan Suqin looked frightened and did not dare to say anything.
Because they seemed to understand from the son's words that it was not the son who could completely make the decision in all this. Instead, the god behind the son was angry.
More than 5,300 words
Well, let’s talk nonsense. The weather is getting colder. There are more and more weddings happening. Why do they only happen every three days? The short blade is very depressed. This is also a married man. It’s a helpless thing.
, relatives, family members and friends on both sides tease me. Although I love drinking, I don’t like to have banquets every day, and there are many people and chaos. I like the feeling of three or two friends sitting together and drinking and talking.
