Cheng Yunqing shook her head a little helplessly and smiled, "...... Uncle and grandfather, in fact, his old man actually took pity on me......"

"Pathetic?" Wei Man was stunned by Cheng Yunqing's sad expression, and said disapprovingly: "Why did Cousin Yunqing say this, although I didn't have much contact with my grandfather, but I can also see that my grandfather really likes Cousin Yunqing......"

"What Cousin Oman said was that my grandfather was very fond of me and treated me like a grandson...... I mean, at the beginning, my uncle and grandfather brought me back to Xijing from the countryside, not because of my intelligence and ...... as rumored" Because he recalled the past, Cheng Yunqing's eyes were a little sad, and he said softly: "I became an orphan when I was seven years old, and after that, I was taken to my uncle's house to live...... Uncle and aunt, they don't like me and treat me coldly...... It happened that my uncle and grandfather met me when they returned to their hometown to worship their ancestors, and his old man saw that my life was embarrassing, so he brought me back to Xijing......"

His eyes became far away, Cheng Yunqing's mouth was vaguely talking about the past, but the memory he deliberately put in his heart clearly appeared in his mind, and he seemed to have returned to the years full of anger, fear and helplessness.

Cheng Yunqing's hometown is the famous Chengjiazhuang near Xijing, his ancestors have always been a big local family, and in his grandfather's generation, although the family is a little degraded, it is still a rich and noble family with no worries about food and clothing, and a group of servants.

Cheng Yunqing's grandfather had two sons, the eldest son was his uncle, and the second son was his father.

Before the age of four, in Cheng Yunqing's memory, his family, his uncle's family, and his grandparents who loved him lived together in a very big house...... I have the impression that he is always surrounded by many, many people, and everyone smiles at him, as if everyone likes him very much...... Oh, except for the occasional uncle and aunt staring at him with eyes he didn't like, and saying things he didn't understand, but his parents were angry when they heard it...... However, at that time, he was too young, and in his vague memory, he only knew that he should be carefree and happy.

When Cheng Yunqing was four years old, his grandfather and grandmother passed away one after another, he remembered that during that time, the family had always been very noisy, and he vaguely remembered that his father and uncle had quarreled loudly many times, and he also remembered that his mother had hugged him and cried......

The noisy days did not last long, and soon his father and mother moved out of the big house with him, and moved into a much smaller house, and all the servants around him were gone, leaving only his nurse......

Although he was young, he also remembered the separation of the family that he listened to in the ancestral house, and at that time, he vaguely felt that his father and uncle should have been separated...... Just moved into a new house, his nurse should have felt uncomfortable and felt that he didn't understand, and complained to him many times in private, saying that the uncle and the second master were siblings, but the uncle didn't leave the second master with any way to live, and he didn't talk about a trace of brotherhood......

Cheng Yunqing felt at that time that maybe the nurse was saying something very important to him, but no matter how important it was, for him as a child, it was no match for his curiosity about his new home, the surprise of seeing things he had never seen before, and the fact that he could walk out of the door and see the scene outside......

The accident happened when Cheng Yunqing was six years old.

When Cheng Yunqing was six years old, his mother, who was not in good health, suddenly had a serious illness and died not long after, and he became a motherless child...... He remembered that on the day his mother was buried, he cried very sadly, and in the end, he didn't know whether he fell asleep from crying or fainted from being too sad...... When he woke up again, he saw his aunt standing by his bed, whom he had not seen for a long time, and looked at him with more uncomfortable eyes than ever, and sighed, "Poor child, what will you do in the future......

Although he was very sad, Cheng Yunqing still remembered his mother's teaching to him before she died, and he subconsciously didn't want to show weakness in front of his eldest aunt, so he endured the fear and grievances in his heart and said to his eldest aunt: "...... I'll be strong...... I still have my daddy......"

Who knows, as soon as Cheng Yunqing said this, his eldest aunt sneered, looking at his eyes, just like before, when Mr. praised him for his endorsement better than his cousin who was two years older than him, the eldest aunt stared at him with the kind of eyes that made him tremble, he shrank in the quilt in fright, but listened to the eldest aunt say: "How can there be a stupid child like you in the world, do you know, your mother is dead, and in a few days, your father will marry you a stepmother, and the stepmother will soon give you a little brother, when the time comes, Your father only cares about the younger brother born to your stepmother, where does he still have the heart to care about you, he must let your stepmother beat and scold you......"

Cheng Yunqing was frightened by his aunt's words, crying and shouting to go to his father to cry, and after he sobbed and told his father about the fear in his heart, he remembered that his father, who was like a mountain in his heart, was angry and distressed...... His father hugged him and promised that there would be no stepmother, let alone a younger brother...... In order to calm his heart, his father took him to his uncle's house, and in front of his uncle and aunt, he said that he would not continue in his life......

That day, Cheng Yunqing shrank in his father's arms and listened to his uncle dance and curse his father......

A few days later, Cheng Yunqing's uncle and aunt came to the door to say goodbye to his father under the banner of "eldest brother is like father, eldest sister-in-law is like mother...... However, in a few days, the uncle and aunt will still come to the door again......

Cheng Yunqing only cared about him at that time, he would not have a terrible stepmother, and he didn't pay attention to his father's growing weight loss and coughing all day, he went to the school happily every morning, and then pestered his father to tell interesting things in the school after returning home in the afternoon, and his life was peaceful and happy......

Cheng Yunqing will never forget that day.

On that day, it coincided with the recess of the school, and not long after Cheng Yunqing had breakfast, he heard a report from someone that the uncle and aunt were here again...... He hurried to his father's house, and when he was far away, he heard the uncle's angry scolding...... He was in a hurry, and rushed into the house faster, but he might as well bump into a person, and sat down on the ground heavily, and raised his head, but saw the eldest aunt standing a few steps away and frowning at him.

Cheng Yunqing was a little scared, he thought that the eldest aunt would be angry with him, but he didn't expect that the eldest aunt just glared at him for a while, but walked forward to help him up, and told him that the uncle wanted to talk to his father and asked him not to disturb him...... He was dragged by his aunt in a daze, but he heard the quarrel between the uncle and his father in the house getting louder and louder, and faintly, he even heard the sound of smashing things...... He was anxious and struggled to get rid of his aunt's control, but his aunt's strength was too great for him to break free...... When he was about to cry, he saw the uncle come out of the house with a pale face, and when he saw him, the uncle's eyes were rare and dodgy, and he turned around and ordered his subordinates to ask the doctor, saying that his father had fainted......

The uncle and aunt left quickly, Cheng Yunqing thought that his father had really fainted, but he didn't expect that when the doctor came, he said that his father was dead...... After that, he was taken to live with his uncle......

Seeing the complicated look on Cheng Yunqing's face, Wei Man vaguely guessed that perhaps, Cheng Yunqing was not doing well in his uncle's house, and it happened that the old lady Cheng happened to meet him when he returned to his hometown to worship his ancestors, and felt sorry for his hard life, and pitied his intelligence, so he took him with him.

"There are so many children of the same age in my hometown, and there are more people who have a difficult life than Cousin Yunqing...... Wei Man said: "Since my grandfather chose Cousin Yunqing to stay by his side, it is naturally because you have strengths that others don't have......"

Cheng Yunqing nodded, with a gentle smile on his face, and said, "When my uncle and grandfather first saw me, they praised me for my handwriting. ”

"Really?" Thinking about changing the topic, Wei Man hurriedly asked with interest: "What was the scene when Cousin Yunqing and his grandfather met for the first time?" ”

"My uncle and my first meeting," Cheng Yunqing recalled: "It was the Qingming Festival when I was nine years old, I remember, it was a little cold that day, I was practicing calligraphy by the river, and suddenly I felt that there was someone next to me, and when I looked up, I saw my uncle and grandfather......"

Cheng Yunqing said, and in the cold wind, a thin child who was shivering and shivering, holding a worn-out brush dipped in water to practice calligraphy on the stone slab, felt someone approaching, the child looked up stupidly, and saw that it was a kind but magnificent old man......

Actually, Mrs. Cheng just said that day, "The handwriting is good!" Before he could react, Old Lady Cheng had already paced and walked...... He stared blankly at the figure of Old Lady Cheng disappearing, sniffed, and continued to practice calligraphy.

That day, Cheng Yunqing went back late again, and the eldest aunt was very unhappy, first pointed at him and scolded, seeing that he always lowered his head, the eldest aunt was even more angry and pushed him hard...... Just when the eldest aunt wanted to kick him, someone came to report that the patriarch was coming......

After that, the patriarch took him out of the uncle's house and handed him over to Mrs. Cheng, and his life changed......

Wei Man was a little distressed.

On a cold day, practice calligraphy by the river......

I'm afraid that Cheng Yunqing's life at his uncle's house can be described more than just "bad".

Touching Cheng Yunqing's "sore spot" again, Wei Man was a little deflated, and with the psychology of remedy, she picked a small green snack on the plate, she remembered, this is the sweetest one of all the dim sum.

"Cousin Yunqing, let the unhappiness of the past pass," Wei Man held the dim sum in front of Cheng Yunqing, tried to make his tone lighter, and said with a smile: "Eat this dim sum, your future days will be the same as this dim sum, sweet and sweet!" ”

Cheng Yunqing stared at Wei Man for a few seconds, and finally took the snack with a smile and said, "Then accept Oman's ......."

"Uh-huh!" Suddenly, a heavy cough sounded interrupting Cheng Yunqing's words.

Wei Man looked for prestige, but saw that the old lady Cheng and a young son were standing not far away looking at this side, she hurriedly stood up, but after seeing the face of the young son, she was stunned on the spot.
