Chapter 153: Will it be martyred?
After Xue Mingsheng watched Chu Lingfeng leave, he turned his head and went to Yu Shanna's small courtyard, the direction of the courtyard was not very good, there was no sun at this time, and most of it was shrouded in darkness.
Because there is no one on weekdays, this yard is temporarily and hastily sorted out, and Yu Shanna's things are too much, so it has not been completely sorted out after cleaning up for a few days, and it will be able to be seen, but if you have a comparative mentality, you will feel that it is simply a heaven and an underground, which is completely unbearable.
Needless to say, Yu Shanna's mood these days is naturally very bad, but the worst state at the beginning has passed, and she has calmed down at this time. She understands that there is no point in blindly making trouble, she has nothing to coerce Xue Lang, and the only hope is the love of the past twenty years.
Yes, she can only move her affection for Xue Lang, and there is no other way. Although she never thought that Xue Lang would really be so ruthless to her before, nor did she think that such a thing would happen to her, but the reality is so cruel, a person who has too much is destined not to cherish it, and a man with a group of wives and concubines can be obsessed with anyone.
Now the only thought is that he can only give in, thinking about waiting for a few days, and after Xue Lang's anger subsides, he will say something good. Yu Shanna thinks that she still knows Xue Lang well, and she is not such a ruthless person, as long as Xue Mingsheng is there, even if she is just an aunt and wife in the Xue family, her status can be guaranteed. What's more, she firmly believes that her aunt or something is just Xue Lang's angry move, and she can't nest in this small courtyard for the rest of her life.
But the news brought by Xue Mingsheng was like a thunderbolt from the sky, and it would be stupid for Shanna in an instant.
"Hand over the business of Harmony Hall?" Even though Yu Shanna tried to restrain herself, she still couldn't control her voice and trembled: "You still said that Xue Mingyang would take over?" ”
"Yes." Xue Mingsheng said with a calm face: "That's what Dad said, it's clear, now this news is already known to everyone." And my father seemed to be in a hurry, so I asked me to sort out all the accounts of Heshantang in a few days and hand them over to my eldest brother. ”
"How could this be, how could he be like this." Yu Shanna stood up suddenly: "He can't do this to you, you are his son." Give all the business to Xue Mingyang, what does this mean, let him inherit the family business, after he became the head of the family. Can there still be a place for our mother, do we still have a way to live, is it possible that after so many years of love, our mother and wife have no weight in his heart? ”
Yu Shanna knew that her only and most powerful hope was her son, and Xue Mingsheng was standing. No matter how small the yard she moves, it is only temporary, and one day she will be able to stand up again with her eyebrows raised. But Xue Mingsheng was given up by Xue Lang, so what hope did she have,, what to use to recapture Xue Lang's heart?
Yu Shanna seemed to want to go to Xue Lang to fight for her son, but when she stood up, she sat down dejectedly, and the tears could no longer stop flowing down her cheeks, but she didn't make a sound at all.
There is no greater mourning than death. This time, Yu Shanna was really disheartened. Although she didn't know why, she knew that Xue Lang had really given up on them.
Although Xue Mingyang is the eldest son, inheriting the family business is a matter of course, but Yu Shanna and Xue Mingsheng have not thought so all these years, they both think that Xia Meixue is just an accident, and they are the authentic, so today Xue Lang announced that he would hand over the business to Xue Mingyang, as if he had snatched it from them.
It's just that they never thought about it. Over the years, they have been unkind to Xue Mingyang, contemptuous of Xia Meixue, and disrespectful to Mrs. Xue, what they have. It was stolen from someone else. Now it's just going back.
The door of the room was closed, and the most trusted girl was also kicked out, Yu Shanna reversed the excitement of the previous few days, and the whole person seemed to have changed, and she was extremely calm.
"Mother." Xue Mingsheng was obviously young, after his anger dissipated. There was some worry, and he was a little at a loss: "What can we do in the future, we must say that we can't call Xue Mingyang the head of the family, otherwise, he will definitely not let us go." Although there is no evidence, I think he must know that Xia Meixue's thing was done by us. ”
"What are we doing, and what are we not doing?" Yu Shanna said coldly: "Actually, if you think about it carefully, although this thing is indeed done by us, even if it is not, even if Xia Meixue really just encountered an accident, do you think Xue Mingyang will believe it?" Would your dad believe it? ”
Xue Mingsheng couldn't help but be silent, feeling that what his mother said was indeed reasonable. The depth of the grievances between the two of them is not overnight, they belong to the absolute wicked people in each other's eyes, as long as they encounter something unlucky, the first thing that comes to mind is definitely the other party, unless the other party has conclusive evidence to prove that it was not done by themselves, not that they must have conclusive evidence to determine that the other party did it.
Xue Mingsheng pondered for a while, and said dejectedly: "Mother, you are right, but I never thought that my father would really attach so much importance to Xia Meixue, and attach importance to it to the point that when she died, he would give up the entire Xue family in order to compensate." Next, he won't build a well-dressed mound, or simply leave home to accompany Xia Meixue, right? ”
Although Xue Lang is no longer young, he is not so old, even if he is haggard because of his hard work and annoyance in the past few days, he can rest and rest to ease up, in Xue Mingsheng's opinion, there is no need to be in such a hurry to let Xue Mingyang take over the business, this is not like teaching his son, but like explaining the future.
When Xue Mingsheng said this, he was naturally just angry words, not serious. But after Yu Shanna heard this, she said lightly: "Since Xue Lang can give up you for Xia Meixue and hand over the family business to the eldest son who has never looked at it seriously, he is so obsessed, let alone building a well-dressed mound in the mountains, even if it is a martyrdom for her...... I wouldn't find it strange either. ”
"How is this possible, I'm just talking......" Xue Mingsheng muttered, and then a spirit: "Mother, you, what do you mean by this?" ”
Yu Shanna's tone of saying this really didn't sound like a joke, but there was a feeling that Xue Lang would really give Xia Meixue a martyrdom. But how is this possible, what is martyrdom, it is to accompany Xia Meixue to die, it is suicide.
"That's what I mean." Yu Shanna picked up the teapot and poured a glass of water for her son: "In the past twenty years, your father has been good to our mother and son, but now he has changed, he is no longer the father who loved you and loved you in the past, he handed over the family business to Xue Mingyang, what is the difference between this and forcing us to die." ”
"But Daddy has already made a decision. What can we do? Xue Mingsheng sighed: "Mother, you said that the eldest brother's health has always been bad, can we think of a way to make him unable to manage the business." Since we can make Natsumiyuki disappear. Add one more Xue Mingyang, it seems that there is nothing. ”
The so-called "don't do two endlessly", when Xue Mingsheng did this for the first time, he may still be hesitant and restless, and he has done psychological construction for a long time. But again and again. I don't feel anything anymore. One human life is human life, and two human lives are just human lives.
"Of course we can let Xue Mingyang disappear as well." Yu Shanna completely agreed with her son's words, and said, "Not only Xue Mingyang, but all the people who stop you should disappear." The Xue family only needs one person to give orders, and this person must be you. Only you can survive. ”
Xue Lang's ruthlessness made Yu Shanna more sober than ever in this world, except for Xue Mingsheng. No one is reliable. Even if Xue Mingsheng is not strong enough now and still needs to be trained, she has no time to practice, so she has to do whatever it takes to help her son become the one who gives orders and is the master of the house.
In the past, Xue Lang was Xue Mingsheng's backer and the person who supported him to climb up. Now, however, it has become a roadblock. Although it is said that a husband and wife are a hundred days, Xue Lang is ruthless. Yu Shanna looked at the small courtyard outside the window, and the tenderness and expectation in her heart disappeared without a trace in an instant.
In Xiaoshan Curie, although Xue Mingyang and Chu Lingfeng also felt that Xue Mingsheng would not give up. But they didn't expect that they even planned to attack Xue Lang.
Xue Mingyang knows some martial arts himself, and he thinks it's okay, but he is very worried about Chu Lingfeng. Thinking about it, Yang Guan and the two are still recruited to protect, but Linchuan is not like Yangzhou. can have no scruples, so let them change into the clothes of the Xue Mansion family, and said to the outside that they were looking for an entourage in Yangzhou, let them follow behind Chu Lingfeng, and don't care about anything next to them, as long as they ensure her safety.
Xue Lang really did what he said, but he was also in a hurry, so he asked the housekeeper to urge Xue Mingsheng a few times that afternoon, and the next morning, he took Xue Mingyang out of the door.
The Xue family has more than a dozen stores in Linchuan alone, needless to say outside, this business handover is not a simple matter. And in Xue Lang's impression, the only thing Xue Mingyang has come into contact with is Heshantang in Yangzhou during this time, and the others are almost ignorant, just like a blank sheet of paper, so it is very difficult to get started in a year and a half.
But what Xue Lang didn't know was that he didn't have a year and a half at all, Xue Mingsheng couldn't afford to wait, and Xue Mingyang couldn't afford to wait.
Since Xue Lang decided to hand over the family's business to Xue Mingyang, he began to ignore Xue Mingsheng intentionally or unintentionally, not to say that he ignored it, but his body was getting worse day by day, and his energy was limited.
Once Xue Mingsheng is no longer the heir he has chosen, then there will be no difference between him and other children, he will not be treated badly when he eats and drinks, and he asks for warmth every day, but he is not so careful and considerate.
As for the contradiction between Xue Mingsheng and Xue Mingyang, he can't control it. Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and at this time, he is difficult to protect himself, but he is not as troubled as Mrs. Xue.
Since Chu Lingfeng returned to the small mountain residence, he has also been idle, and he has breakfast with Xue Mingyang every morning, sending him out, and in the evening, preparing his medicinal food and medicinal materials for acupuncture and moxibustion bathing waiting for him to come back. looks like a good wife and mother.
The direction of the wind in the inner house of the Xue Mansion has completely changed at this time, but anyone who is not stupid already knows who to rely on in the future, so in addition to Yu Shanna, Xue Lang's other aunts and wives have brought their children to the door to show goodwill, whether it is true or not, and said a bunch of flattering words.
In fact, all of this was expected by Chu Lingfeng, not everyone had the heart to grab the position of the master, most of them were still content with the status quo, or rather, they knew that they had a few catties and taels, not that they didn't want to, but that they didn't have the ability, and they were afraid that not only did they not get what they wanted, but they would lose what they could have.
But the only thing that surprised her was her own mother's family.
Chu Lingfeng's mother's family runs a medical clinic in Linchuan, of course, it cannot be compared with the Xue family's business, but because he has been a doctor for generations, he is also somewhat famous and quite solid.
It's just that Chu Lingfeng was born with a miserable life than Xue Mingyang, his biological mother died early, and he was a young lady who didn't know how many times he was at home, so he was not valued by his father at all. After marrying into the Xue family for so long, except for returning to the door for three days, there was almost no contact with the family, as if it had been forgotten.
Of course, a big reason for this is because the Chu family knows that the husband Chu Lingfeng married is nameless, even if he bears the title of the eldest of the Xue family, it is impossible to bring them any help, so not only do they not take Chu Lingfeng in their eyes, but they also never put Xue Mingyang in their eyes.
But these days are different, Xue Lang took Xue Mingyang to inspect the industry, and the things introduced to the shopkeepers of each store soon spread all over Linchuan, and then with Linchuan as the center, it spread out.
Although everyone felt very surprised, they had to believe the facts in front of them. Then after thinking about it carefully, I felt that I was making a fuss, Xue Mingyang was the eldest son of the Xue family, which seemed to be a natural thing, and there was nothing abnormal about it.
Just when Xue Mingyang's status gradually became clear, Chu Lingfeng received a message from his mother's family.
Chu Lingfeng took the post and felt a little incredible: "Big brother's birthday, do you want me to go back and have a reunion dinner together?" ”
"Yes, that's what the lord meant, and that's what the lady meant." The servant who sent the letter said: "Madame said that the third lady has not been home much since she got married, and everyone in the house is worried about the young lady." It just so happened that the twentieth of this month was the twenty-fifth birthday of the eldest young master, and the whole family got together to be lively, so I wanted to ask the third lady if she had time to go back to have a meal with the third aunt. Madame said that it was just a home-cooked meal, and there was no outsider present, so there was no need to be restrained. ”
Chu Lingfeng read the post back and forth, half ringing, and then said: "I remember that my father's birthday and eldest brother were very close, that is, half a month ago, and I didn't think of sending me a letter on my father's birthday, I sent a congratulatory gift to the past, and I didn't even hear back?"
