Chapter 128 The situation is tense
Chapter 128 The situation is tense
"We've been married for ten years and have lived a peaceful life. Why are you saying we're not compatible now? Also, what does it mean to be separated?"
Cheng Rui's blood boiled and his eyes, which had been calm until now, suddenly became sharp.
"That's what you said! Peace and stability, ridiculous! You don't know how painful and uncomfortable I am. You don't understand what I want at all.
Cheng Rui, I have tolerated you for a long time. Now that we are apart, you should live your life and I should live mine, without interfering with each other or disturbing each other. "
Zeng Qian'er simply stopped caring about manners and etiquette. She always followed the rules and virtues of a woman, not talking while eating or sleeping, not talking back to her husband, and not disregarding her husband's feelings.
A wife and mother must regard her husband as her God, and her duties as a wife and mother include serving her husband well and taking good care of her children every day.
She had to learn these rules and regulations since she was a child. These were also the teachings instilled in her by her grandmother, and she had to follow them when she grew up and got married.
Every daughter of an official or aristocratic family in Nanyue had to learn the necessary etiquette in order to marry into a high-ranking family or royal family and become a mistress in the future. They could not disregard etiquette and act recklessly like the daughters of small families.
She has long been accustomed to following these things, even if many of them are unfair, she doesn't care. What she cares about is to have someone who truly loves and cares about her, and a happy family.
Since she didn't have any of these, why did she make her life so miserable and tiring? What was the meaning of such a life?
She wasn't having a good life, so who cared whether they were doing well or not? If they were dissatisfied with her, they had to keep it to themselves like she did before.
"Qian'er! You...don't do this when there are other people around." Cheng Rui was so angry that he couldn't speak. Looking at Shangguan Yue who was sitting on the side watching the show, his raised voice slowed down again.
"What do you mean by others? Xiaoyue is my sister, a family member!"
"Qian'er, let's stop arguing. It's almost noon. Yu'er and Heng'er are off today. Let's have a meal together! You haven't seen them for a long time."
"Little sister, let's go have dinner." Zeng Qian'er ignored Cheng Rui and went over to pull Shangguan Yue, who still wanted to watch the show, and walked towards the dining room together.
Cheng Rui, who had not yet come to his senses, stopped and looked at the lady walking in front of him with a smile on her face, talking and laughing with Shangguan Yue. The scene seemed like a lifetime ago.
Yes, how long has it been since the lady smiled like this? She has become more and more serious in recent years. She is a perfect wife and mother.
Recalling their encounter, her stunned eyes when she first saw him, her angry words when he was bullied, her desperate rescue when he was murdered, her anxious eyes when he was seriously injured, her care without taking off her clothes...
As these scenes appeared before his eyes, the smile on Cheng Rui's lips slowly faded. It was his fault. A boring man like him could not give her happiness. If she wanted to fly, then let her fly freely!
"Hey! Who are you, bitch? How did you get to my house? Let me tell you, my father doesn't take concubines."
A boy doll who looked like a New Year picture came into the dining room surrounded by maids.
How could such a cute child have a mouth! He can't even recognize his own mother. Blindness is indeed hereditary.
Shangguan Yue looked at the boy, then turned to look at Zeng Qianer: Your stupid son?
Zeng Qianer smiled awkwardly: I also have a silly daughter!
Shangguan Yue: “…”
"Hey! You vixen, my brother is asking you a question! Are you deaf or dumb?"
A little girl wearing a dark red dress, about eight or nine years old and about 1.4 meters tall, was holding the hand of a maid and slowly walking into the dining room with lotus steps.
She is young, but she is dressed maturely, and her expression and actions are like an adult woman, except that her mouth is not flattering.
Shangguan Yue opened her mouth towards Zeng Qianer: You are indeed a foolish daughter...
"Yu'er! How can you talk like that, girl? That's your mother!"
Cheng Rui, who had just come in, didn't hear what his son said before. Hearing his daughter speak like this, he felt very rude in front of Shangguan Yue.
"She's my mother? You must be kidding. How could my mother look like this? She's not this young. She's much older."
"Old? Didn't you just say I was young? You talk nonsense and don't use your brain?"
"Hey! Who are you calling brainless... Why does your voice sound so similar to hers? Are you her sister? Niece?"
"Yu'er, stop being disrespectful and apologize to your mother right now!"
Cheng Rui was also angry. How could this child become so unreasonable? It was really embarrassing.
"Are you really my mother?" Cheng Ziheng looked at the woman in front of him. She was very young and beautiful, and different from his previous mother in every way.
The voice was indeed his mother's, and the appearance was familiar, but the skin, temperament, dress, expression and movements were completely different.
Cheng Ziyu ignored her father Cheng Rui. She also looked at the woman carefully. She felt the same as her brother. She couldn't believe that in just less than a month and a half, her mother seemed like a different person.
"Little sister, ignore those idle people and eat first. Here, this is the dried bamboo shoots made from the tender bamboo shoots that are a specialty of our Lincheng. They are crispy and sweet. Try them. If they taste good, eat more. You can also take some back to Yuecheng later."
"Mm! It's delicious. You can try it too, big sister. We can sell this to Yuecheng, and Lanyue Pavilion can also use this to make a new dish."
In her previous life, Shangguan Yue liked to eat bamboo shoots. Dried bamboo shoots from different origins taste different, and there are techniques to making them. Modern dried bamboo shoots are not as delicious as the ancient handmade ones.
"Who are you? Why are you sitting next to my mother? That's where my brother and I sit!" Cheng Ziyu pointed at Shangguan Yue and shouted angrily.
"I'm your aunt, so of course I have to sit next to my sister. Didn't you just say she's not your mother? Why are you so nervous now? Your mother may not even recognize you!"
Shangguan Yue savored the food slowly and carefully. Although she looked like a fairy, her words were very down-to-earth.
"Who are you? How dare you treat us as your aunt? Mom, I want to eat bamboo shoots, too. Please pick some for me. I also want to eat fish, please pick out the fish bones for me."
Cheng Ziheng was very dissatisfied with his mother's words and deeds. She valued an outsider so much. He and his sister were her son and daughter!
"Cheng Ziheng! And you, Cheng Ziyu, where are your manners? Xiaoyue is my sworn sister, and I asked her to sit next to me. How dare you two interfere in the affairs of your elders?
Cheng Ziyu, you are still a few months older than Xiaoyue! How come you are not even a bit better than Xiaoyue? I am such a failure. What the hell did I do to give birth to you two?
And you, Cheng Ziheng, you are almost seven years old, and you are still not weaned? You can just stretch out your hand to pick up the dried bamboo shoots in front of you, and you don’t eat fish because they have bones. You can’t even take care of yourself, so I can’t expect you to take care of me in the future. "
Zeng Qianer was really angry. It's true that comparing yourself with others makes you feel nauseous. She has been in contact with her brother's children a lot recently. The nephews are really sensible and polite, and they study hard and are motivated.
The younger sister Yue'er is also able to take care of herself at a young age. The second sister even leaves all matters to the younger sister. The second sister is completely enjoying life.
The second sister is really happy. She has a husband who loves and spoils her to the core, and a talented daughter who can take care of her.
And what about herself? What does she have?
