Chapter 68 Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read
Back in the dormitory, Li Chengjing was also curious about why Leng Chuxian's relationship with her brother was like a stranger. It stands to reason that there will be no estrangement between the siblings of a mother, and Leng Chuxian is a daughter, so she will not compete with her brother for the family property. No matter how much her father loves her, the most he will leave for her in the future is enough dowry, so what effect will it have on his brother? Or is his brother so stingy that he can't even bear to let her take this little money?
Leng Chuxian told her that this was not the case, her brother was just indifferent to her, and he would never bully her, and he would not care about her parents' love or financial gains and losses.
Li Chengjing didn't understand that there was no contradiction between them, why was it just a biological sister, but Yixuan didn't know how to love, or he was born with weak family affection, or his personality was flawed.
It can only be said that every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and big families also have their own bodies, just like Li Chengjing, who is obviously a daughter, and she doesn't want to train with boys.
Leng Chuxian's brother is four years older than her, and he was actually surnamed before Leng Chuxian was ten years old. She has a memory, she grew up with her mother, and her father was busy, at least when she came back, he would hug her and accompany her, laughing and playing, responding to requests, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is a princess.
Her brother was not so lucky, and it was also when she remembered that she saw that her brother spent most of his time with an abacus and a ledger, and had to face the so-called business master that her father had hired for him. Compared to her life of being held in the palm of her hand like a pearl in the palm of her hand, her brother is boring and boring. Maybe he also enjoyed such a life when he was a child, but Leng Chuxian couldn't see it.
Leng Chuxian knew that he was his brother, and wanted to find him to play with him several times, but was either rejected by his father or by his brother's master. Occasionally, when his brother was free, he seemed to want to play but didn't dare to play with her, and over time, Leng Chuxian got used to playing alone.
Later, when he was ten years old, Leng Chuxian was sent to school. His father told her that she would take her mother's last name in the future, and that she must not tell anyone who her father was when she was outside. Her father would never take her to crowded places, and even for pick-up, he would send a maid at random, and pretend that it was her relative to pick her up.
At first, she didn't understand why his father deliberately pretended not to have this daughter when he was outside because he spoiled her at home. As she got older, Leng Chuxian understood that her father was trying to protect her with good intentions, and he didn't want to bring her any trouble under his reputation.
When she went to school, she had fewer opportunities to meet and talk to her brother. Later, her father began to take her brother around, and it was a long time before they could see each other, and even if they did, they couldn't seem to find a common topic, so the brother and sister gradually became like strangers.
Or, after the age of twelve, her mother died, her father was busy with business, and the brother and sister were just not close, never fighting, never fighting, no fighting, no fighting,
Leng Chuxian sometimes thinks that her brother is quite pitiful, and he has to bear the burden that her father gave him since he was a child, although their family is rich and rivals, she has never seen her brother smile very happily. Sometimes she also wonders if her brother's heart is really willing to accept all this? Is she really willing to be a successful businessman like her father?
It's just that she doesn't know how to speak, and it can be said that her brother didn't give her much opportunity to talk to him.
Li Chengjing pondered again about the last look in Guan Yixuan's eyes, suspicious and unfriendly, that was suspecting that she was approaching Leng Chuxian for the assets of the Kuang family. Li Chengjing was also weak at that moment, because her original intention of approaching Leng Chuxian was to get funding from the Guo family in the future.
"Cheng Jing, what are you thinking?" Leng Chuxian shouted at her.
Li Chengjing came back to her senses and said: "I was just thinking that if I had younger brothers and sisters, I wouldn't be like you."
Leng Chu sighed envy and asked, "That's right, why doesn't your father have other children, aren't the warlords all wives and concubines?" ”
Li Chengjing glanced at her, and Leng Chuxian said again: "Of course, my father also has the ability to have three wives and four concubines, but he loves my mother deeply, even after my mother passed away, he still has no intention of continuing the strings, and his energy is all focused on business and our brothers and sisters." ”
Li Chengjing sighed and said, "I haven't seen my mother, I heard that she passed away not long after I was born. Over the years, there have been many women around my father, just like the marquee on the street, but there has not been a single boy or a woman, which is probably the fate of our Li family. ”
The two looked at each other and smiled, both sighing at the helplessness of fate. Now that they are still in the military academy, I really don't know what it will be like when they go out......
In the next two days, he didn't see Yixuan coming to the school to visit Leng Chuxian, it seemed that he felt that he didn't need to come again after seeing it that day. After coming back, Leng Chuxian didn't mention it, her brother didn't come, and she didn't expect anything.
On Saturday night, they made an appointment to visit Zou Bao'er together tomorrow, and estimated that she should be almost fine. Lu Baiting and the others originally went the day after they went, and Zou Baoyi felt that his sister was fine, and it was troublesome to always run back, so he asked them to go together on Sunday afternoon.
Compared with the hurry last time, this time they bought fruits, pastries and other souvenirs together and went to Zou's house. The four of them arrived at Zou's house first, and after a while, Zou Bao'er walked out of it, and they saw that she could already walk freely on the ground, and her spirit had almost recovered its former brilliance.
Zou Bao'er said hello to the four of them, and when she faced Duan Shaoling, her emotions were calm and unusual. What did the two of them talk about that day, and they didn't ask Duan Shaoling afterwards, I just hope that Zou Bao'er really figured it out this time.
Zou Baoer also said that she could get out of bed and walk as early as Friday, and now she is almost 70% better, and she can only do strenuous exercise for the time being.
They chatted for a while, and at about two o'clock, Lu Baiting and Shen Hong arrived, and they were also carrying gifts in their hands, saying that the three of them bought it together, the three of them, and naturally Liao Zhongying. They all offered their most sincere care to Zou Baoer, and Zou Baoer smiled and accepted them one by one.
Zou Baoyi instructed his subordinates to take down these fruits and pastries and dispose of them, put them on a plate and then serve them, and he proposed that everyone go to the back garden to sit together.
"Wait a minute, Zhongying hasn't arrived yet." Lu Baiting said.
"yes, why hasn't he come yet? I usually see him doing things without being so slow. Zou Baoyi asked.
"That's right, he said he was going to bring someone, so let's come first, and he'll be there soon."
Shen Hong said: "It must be a girlfriend, I just said that this kid has been full of spring in recent months, there must be a situation, but this time he is too good at hiding it." It's rare that he is willing to take the initiative to bring it over today, just to see who his sweetheart is. ”
Except for Chen Zui and the other three who knew the inside story, the rest of them were very curious.
After another ten minutes, the people brought the food. They had just taken two bites in their hands, and at the gate, a man and a woman walked in holding hands.
At first, they were slightly unnatural when they saw so many people in the hall, but then, the two of them held the ground tighter and walked over slowly, the noon sun shining directly on their faces, and then only the happiness on their faces shone brightly.
"You, you ......" They gathered around in disbelief, as if they were watching a rare animal imported from abroad.
"Did you already know?" Leng Chuxian saw that several of them were sitting there calmly, eating fruits and pastries.
Li Chengjing said: "Once I happened to meet them on the street, they said not to go out for the time being, you know that we will not talk about other people's things at will, and they promised not to say it, so they never mentioned it." ”
Leng Chuxian can understand that other people's private affairs should not be talked about, and the things promised should be kept secret. Leng Chuxian didn't go over either, although she was also surprised, after all, she was still relatively calm, and it wasn't a serious matter, and she knew that Hu Yuanlan would take the initiative to come over in a while.
Several of them asked nonsense, and Liao Zhongying was responsible for answering their questions. Hu Yuanlan got rid of the entanglement and walked to their side.
"Bao'er, I heard that you were injured, are you feeling better now?"
"Thanks, it's almost too good."
Leng Chuxian smiled: "If it weren't for the fact that everyone was coming to see Bao'er today, you shouldn't be going to admit it so soon, right?" ”
Hu Yuanlan smiled and acquiesced, Zou Baoer is also her good friend, and she should also come to visit her. Anyway, everyone has to get together, and it's better to choose a day than to hit the day, and there is no need to hide it anymore.
Zou Baoer also said: "So, everyone still entrusts me with my blessing, this is really my honor." ”
"Otherwise, when are you going to say it?"
At this time, several big men also finished talking and walked over together, "Originally, we planned to tell you before we got engaged at the end of the year. ”
The pastry they had just picked up was almost about to squirt out again, "Engaged? That is, you have already met the parents? ”
"Yes."
"My dear, you're developing too fast."
Liao Zhongying just smiled and didn't answer the question again.
The front hall was a little crowded, and they went to the back garden to sit together, these snacks and fruits, Zou Baoyi asked his subordinates to take them over, reminding them to stay together tonight and have dinner before leaving.
In the back garden of autumn, there is no red and willow green in summer. Falling leaves, in addition to the ground, there are also floods on the water, under the sun, like golden paper boats drifting, but also quite a bit of artistic conception, so that the whole back garden does not look so depressed.
The subordinates not only sent food, but also fishing gear, and it seems that Zou Baoyi planned to take them over to fish early in the morning. They stood on several sides like last time, Zou Bao'er had just recovered from her injury, so it was not appropriate to stand for too long, and the other girls did not participate, and they all sat in the pavilion with Zou Bao'er and chatted.
They cared a little more about their marriage, and their affairs seemed to be a certainty. Zou Bao'er also wanted to ask about Kuang Yixuan, but because Hu Yuanlan didn't know about it, she knew that Leng Chuxian's matter should not be known by too many people, so she didn't say anything about it in her heart first, and only talked about other things.
Zou Bao'er is at home these days, and the school still has a doctor to check the healing of her injuries every day, and the doctor tells her that although her wounds are combined, she will have to rest at home for a week before she can go to school. Even if I go to school, I can only stay in the infirmary, and I don't participate in other training for the time being.
Master Zou regretted that he shouldn't let her learn what marksmanship, and solemnly warned her that she couldn't go again, if she didn't agree, she would not be allowed to stay in the military academy anymore, and later he personally called the principal to explain the situation. Zou Bao'er saw that her father was so worried and anxious, and she would no longer be so willful, but she thought that she would be stuck at home for a week, which was a little uncomfortable. But I can't go anywhere now, so I can only endure it for the time being.
