Knowing that the old man was going to fight Qi Xiuyuan, Mei Xin, who was being punished for reciting the Heart Sutra on the wall in the upstairs study, couldn't meditate.

She panicked, and she didn't even have time to put down the book in her hand, so she ran downstairs in a hurry.

"What are you going to do?"

On the corridor, Qi Pengcheng was cleaning the flower pots.

He was punished by the old man to clean up the flowers and plants in the entire building, and just when he came to the outside of the study, he bumped into the panicked Mei Xin,

"I ...... I'll go see Yuan'er! Just now, Qing'er brought me tea and told me that she was back. The old man is angry and wants to enforce the family law, I have to go downstairs to stop it! ”

Mei Xin rushed forward with her head stuffed, and she didn't look at Qi Pengcheng's answer.

After listening to her words, Qi Pengcheng hurriedly dropped the rag in his hand, grabbed Mei Xin and said, "Oh, my dear lady, hey!" Please, don't mess up, okay? If you don't go, Xiuyuan will be beaten at most, and if you go, Xiuyuan may be even more guilty! ”

Father has always been dissatisfied with Mei Xin, which Qi Pengcheng knows very well.

If it weren't for the face of him and the child, his old man would probably be even more unkind to Mei Xin.

"What do you mean? Could it be that you let me watch my son be punished? ”

Qi Pengcheng stopped himself from going downstairs, Mei Xin turned her head to look at him and asked very angrily.

If the news conveyed by Qing'er is not wrong, the old man wants to enforce the family law on Xiuyuan.

has lived most of her life, and she has seen that kind of punishment when Xiuyuan's grandmother died.

That time, she was supposed to be the one who was punished.

At first, the old man wanted to kick her out of this house, but because of Peng Cheng's intercession, her father-in-law finally made a compromise.

The result of Old Man Qi's compromise was that she had to accept family law.

She was born with a heart condition and simply couldn't afford that kind of punishment. So in the end, it was Peng Cheng who received that punishment for him.

"Dad's temperament, you know! Our family has clear rewards and punishments, and since we have done something wrong, we should be punished. ”

Holding Mei Xin's hand tightly, Qi Pengcheng persuaded her softly.

He didn't agree with his father's approach, and over the years, he rarely used such a rough way to deal with problems. But this time, if Xiuyuan is not punished, they are afraid that it will be difficult for them to explain to the people of the Lu family.

"But, you know how heavy that punishment is! Dad, he's angry now, if I don't stop him, he'll kill Xiuyuan! ”

The old man's temperament, of course Mei Xin knows it.

It was because she knew too much that she was especially worried.

"If you don't go, the old man may be more merciful to Xiuyuan, if you go, the old man will punish Xiuyuan...... Maybe it's heavier! ”

In order to stop his wife's actions, Qi Pengcheng said as tactfully as possible.

Although Mei Xin was irrational, she understood her husband's words at once.

Today, just because she accidentally said something like that in front of the old man, she caused the entire Qi family to be punished.

On the surface, Mei Xin's punishment seems to be light. She seemed to be just punished for reciting the Heart Sutra in the study to meditate, but everyone up and down the family was punished because of her, and this kind of behavior was tantamount to a slap in the face for Mei Xin.

But this punishment was given by the old man, and even if she didn't want to, she had to admit it.

"Then I...... Let's not go! ”

Sadly bent down and squatted down, Mei Xin hugged herself.

She has always had a strong personality, and she rarely showed such a fragile side, and Qi Pengcheng, who has always been more humble to his wife, also squatted down and gently hugged her shoulders.

"Don't think too much, Dad isn't holding a grudge against you. He just likes the girl of the Lu family very much, and he is reluctant to let the family be wronged! ”

Seizing the opportunity at the right time, Qi Pengcheng began to do ideological work for his wife.

These days, he is ostensibly neutral, but in fact he still prefers to be the daughter-in-law of his Qi family.

"What's so good about that long road? The old man likes her so much! ”

Her husband spoke for Lu Man, and Mei Xin raised her head and asked with a very unhappy expression.

In order to avoid making his wife feel that she was on the side of the long road, Qi Pengcheng pondered for a moment and replied seriously: "Speaking of which, there is really nothing good about this long road except for good medical skills."

"Really?"

Seeing that Qi Pengcheng agreed with his statement, Mei Xin's attitude towards him was finally not so guarded.

"She has a long way to go, except for many parents, and there is nothing better than our Qing'er. Why did the old man support that woman to marry into our Qi family, but opposed Qing'er? ”

This question has been bothering Mei Xin for a long time, and she has always been puzzled.

Since the old man can accept a granddaughter-in-law like Lu Man, why can't he accept Qing'er?

Besides, Qing'er's father is still kind to her and Peng Cheng.

She grew up under their noses, and she knows the roots, how good!

What's good about the long road?

Qi Pengcheng couldn't say this clearly.

He has a long way to go, and he has only met once in private. At that time, he had just heard from Mei Xin that Xiuyuan was married behind their backs, and he didn't know about such a big thing as his son's marriage, so he went to verify it.

When he met his daughter-in-law for the first time, Qi Pengcheng was satisfied with her.

This kid knows how to advance and retreat, knows etiquette, and has a good backbone, no worse than the daughters of those wealthy families.

After only meeting once, Qi Pengcheng expressed his agreement with the daughter-in-law chosen by his son. And Qin Qing has lived in their house for more than ten years, but he doesn't have a good impression of that child.

I don't know if he is used to strategizing in the mall all year round, which leads him to some conspiracy theories.

Qin Qing's child looks very well-behaved and polite on the surface, but it always feels like he is doing face-saving work, which is a bit fake.

Saying this, it's not because Qi Pengcheng doesn't like Qin Qing. On the contrary, he felt the same guilt about the child as his wife.

Qin Qing's father died to save him, and before he died, he donated his heart to his wife Mei Xin.

Both of them have received the favor of Qin Qing's father, and it stands to reason that he should repay this child well.

In fact, Qi Pengcheng and Mei Xin did the same.

Since Qin Qing's father died, they took Qin Qing to live in their house.

Qin Qing's degree of application is the same as that of their daughter, they treat her as if they were their own daughter, and it can even be said that they are better than their own daughter.

Because of her, Mei Xin even ruthlessly sent their daughter abroad. It was a child who was only twelve or thirteen years old, and the reason why she was sent away was that she and Qin Qing couldn't get along amicably.

It can be seen how much they care about Qin Qing.

It's just that who would have expected that Qin Qing, the kid, would actually like their family Xiuyuan.

Xiuyuan's child has always been cold in the relationship between men and women, except for the girl from the Jiang family, there have never been other women around him.

Mei Xin knew that Qin Qing liked Xiuyuan, so she wanted to match the two of them together.

As everyone knows, Xiuyuan has no intention of Qin Qing at all.

But Mei Xin knew this, and forced Xiuyuan to marry Qin Qing.

She wanted to repay the kindness of the Qin family's father and daughter in this way.

But this favor is obviously owed by them, how can they repay their son's lifelong events?!

"Our dad has always been sensible, and there should be a reason why he chose this way!"

This question asked by Mei Xin, Qi Pengcheng also asked his father.

But his father stared at him for a long time, but asked him rhetorically: "You all know that you have to marry a woman you like when you get married, is it possible that your son is not as good as you?"

“……”

Qi Pengcheng was choked speechless, and he could only answer with a smirk for a while.

The father's words seem to have no flaws, but the son can still sense Lao Tzu's emotions and psychology after all.

In the process of looking at his father, Qi Pengcheng clearly felt that there were still unfinished words in his eyes.

But his father didn't say much else, and seemed to be deliberately concealing it, so Qi Pengcheng didn't ask any more.

"No! I can't wait like that! ”

Suddenly, Mei Xin suddenly stood up from the ground.

She moved quickly, and Qi Pengcheng was almost overturned by her.

Fortunately, he practiced with his father when he was young, otherwise, he would have fallen to the ground in embarrassment at this moment.

"What are you going to do?"

Watching Mei Xin walk away, Qi Pengcheng hurriedly raised his voice and asked.

Mei Xin didn't reply, and replied directly to him: "I'll go and ask Qing'er to prepare some medicine for the injury, and I'll go to Xiuyuan's room later to rub it for him!"

If you can't stop the old man from beating someone, then she should always do something to remedy it.

“……”

Hearing that his wife didn't forget to create an opportunity for Qin Qing at this time, Qi Pengcheng stroked his forehead with a headache.

"It's amazing! When will you be able to see more than Qin Qing in your eyes? Xin'er has already gone home, haven't you noticed it as a mother? ”

Staring at Mei Xin's distant back, Qi Pengcheng asked to himself.

Behind him, at some point, a petite figure stood, and after hearing his words, the figure pounced on him and hugged him.

"Daddy!"

A familiar voice sounded behind him, and Qi Pengcheng's expression and posture froze.

He didn't know when his daughter had arrived, or if she had heard what he had just said, or if she had seen her mother run for another child......

"Xin'er, you...... When did you come? ”

Qi Pengcheng didn't want his wife's behavior to hurt his daughter, so he asked cautiously and tentatively when he turned around.

My father asked, and Qi Xin immediately understood his purpose.

"I've just arrived!"

With a bright smile on his face, he replied in a crisp voice.

Judging from her voice, Qi Pengcheng didn't hear any unhappiness from his daughter, so he believed what she said.

"You kid, why don't you tell your parents when you go back to Shuzhou?"

Qi Pengcheng asked as he stroked his daughter's hair with loving eyes, and his heart was both happy and self-blaming.

This is his own daughter, but they haven't seen each other once in a few years.

"Dad, you're so busy at work, how can I bear to bother? Anyway, my brother has a very idle day, wouldn't it be nice for me to bother him? ”

Qi Xin blinked and said with a childish face.

"Yes, it's better to stay with your brother. Fuck her...... She is also not in good health and has no extra energy to accompany you. Qi Pengcheng said with a little weakness.

Hearing this, Qi Xin just laughed.

A cold feeling flashed in her heart, and she was about to arrange her father in her words, but out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of her mother appearing in the distance of the corridor, and she suddenly changed her mind: "Yes, anyway, I'm not her own, what's the difference if she doesn't care about me?" It's good that I have my dad and brother hurt! ”

The child said angry words again, Qi Pengcheng reached out and nodded her eyebrows, and was about to educate her.

Qi Xin took the opportunity to take her father's hand and went downstairs pretending not to see anything.

Behind them, Mei Xin froze in place because of Qi Xin's words, and her cheeks, which were originally bloodless, were even more pale at the moment.
