Chapter 3 The Four Walls of the Family
After Leng Yue stood up, she looked at the dark night sky, it should be the middle of the night, she said to Meng Xingchen, "Let's go, let's go home." ”
She thought; The person who can still keep her so undeparting when the original owner is dead must be the best person in the world for her.
Leng Yue returned to their home with the support of Meng Xingchen, there are only two simple thatched huts here, one of which is still in disrepair for many years, and it is impossible to live at all, and there is a small side house next to it, which should be used for cooking.
They walked into the better one. Leng Yuejian saw that the furnishings in the house were very simple, except for a table and a bed, there was only a small cabinet similar to a dresser, on which some embroidery was placed, and although the room was simple, it was exceptionally clean. It seems that the owner of this house, although poor, is still very particular about life.
Just as she was about to get into her mind, she heard a grunt, and when she turned her head, she saw Meng Xingchen covering her stomach and lowering her head with a red face, with a trace of fear in her eyes in addition to embarrassment.
This made Leng Yue a little puzzled, this man seemed to be particularly afraid of her, always cautious in front of her, when looking at her, there was always a deep fear in his eyes, although he was trying his best to hide it, but the fear and uneasiness in his heart would always show it inadvertently.
Leng Yue didn't have time to delve into the reason for this, so she heard Meng Xingchen say softly, "Wife, you're hungry, I'll go get you something to eat." "After speaking; Without waiting for Leng Yue to answer, he walked out.
Leng Yue glanced at his departing back, and suddenly a wave of dizziness hit her, she sat down with her head propped up, and a strange memory flashed through her mind like a horse.
These memories belonged to the original owner, and through these memories, she knew that the original owner's name was Feng Lengyue, and there was only one surname difference from her name. This continent is called Lingchuan Continent, and the entire continent is respected by women. There are three big countries, namely: Fengling Country, Lingquan Country, Mengyue Country and countless small countries, and the small countries must rely on these three big countries in order to survive.
The man here has no place in the hearts of the women, but is only a tool for childbearing and an accessory in life. A woman can marry as many husbands as she wants, but a man can only marry one wife in his lifetime.
This is the same as the ancient patriarchal inferiority of women. It's just a reversal of roles, but the requirements for men here are stricter than those of ancient women, without the permission of the wife, they are not allowed to step out of the backyard for half a step for the rest of their lives, and even the birth of children must be given by the wife, otherwise they can only die of old age in the backyard for the rest of their lives, without children and daughters, lonely, until they die...
The place where she is now is a small town that belongs to the Lingquan Country, called "Moon Lake Town", because there is a lake like the moon here, and it is not far from the country of the Lingquan Country, so it is relatively prosperous.
This man named Meng Xingchen is the husband of the original owner, a man with a weak appearance, but a very strong man.
He relied on his skillful hands to embroider embroidery far and wide, and because of this, he earned more money than ordinary women. He embroidered embroidery for others day and night every day, and also saved the money for his own meals, just to save a little more silver for the original owner, so that he could reduce the guilt in his heart for her.
But this original owner is a bastard who is a gambler and does not learn and has no skills, so that the life that they could have lived a warm and comfortable life has become such a day where the family is surrounded by walls and three meals are not enough. He always blames his disobedience on men.
With these memories, Leng Yue felt a little more distressed for this man named Meng Xingchen, and from the memory of the original owner, she knew the reason why he was not treated by the original owner. This has to start with the death of Mengxingchen's father.
Half a year ago, after the death of Mengxingchen's father, he lost the most important support in his life, and he was at a loss, so he could only guard his father's body like a wooden man who had lost his soul, recalling the bits and pieces of relying on his father.
At that time, Feng Lengyue came to Meng Xingchen's house to collect embroidery on the order of her mother, only to find that Meng Xingchen had fainted next to his father's corpse, so she took him home and helped him deal with his father's funeral with her mother.
Meng Xingchen has been living in Feng Lengyue's house since his father died, which is tantamount to ruining his innocence for an unmarried man, so Feng's mother asked Feng Lengyue to marry him, Feng's mother is a warm-hearted person, and she has taken good care of Meng Xingchen and her father over the years, so Meng Xingchen has no opinion on this, so he agreed.
Feng Lengyue was originally a very fun-loving person, she didn't want to get married so early, because she knew that she would have to take responsibility after starting a family, but she didn't dare to disobey Feng's mother's orders, and she was quite pitiful when she saw Meng Xingchen, so she reluctantly agreed.
She found Meng Xingchen and said to him, "It's okay if you want me to marry you, but you must obediently listen to me in the future, as long as you are obedient, I will treat you well and take care of you for your father for the rest of your life." ”
Meng Xingchen was full of gratitude to their mother and son, so he nodded at her, "Well, I will keep your words in mind, be obedient, and never make you angry." ”
On the day of their wedding, when the two were about to worship the church, a fire suddenly broke out in the backyard, the entire Feng family was on fire, and the guests were so frightened that they fled in all directions.
In the end, it was Aunt Feng who rescued him from the fire, and Aunt Feng was also seriously burned by the fire when she rescued him, and finally died.
Before he died, he called them to the bed, took their hands and told them to live a good life with each other, especially told Feng Lengyue that she could not live up to Meng Xingchen in this life.
Feng Lengyue wanted her mother to go uneasy, so she could only agree against her will, but she hated Meng Xingchen very much in her heart, but she couldn't abandon him, but she didn't want to see him.
So she lingered in the casino and the Qinglou all day long, and all the silver she consumed was exchanged for the embroidery embroidered by Meng Xingchen every day and night. Meng Xingchen also received the infamy of the disaster star because of the death of his father and Aunt Feng.
Because after the habit was formed, Feng Lengyue became more and more dissatisfied, every time she came back to ask for money, if it didn't reach the amount she wanted, she would beat him up, even if the silver was enough, but if she encountered something unpleasant, she would also vent it on him, so this developed Meng Xingchen As long as he saw her, he would be afraid, which was a natural reflection of people under a long-term abuse.
And the reason why the original owner died was because in the Qinglou, he fought with a rich man's daughter for a prostitute and was beaten to death.
