Chapter 30: Hatred I
I can understand my grandfather's emotions right now, because my father is no longer alive.
Knowing this, what does it matter what kind of girl my father married in the first place? As long as husband and wife are loving, filial to the elderly, and loving to future generations, isn't it a kind of happiness? Why do you want to force your life status and your own talent?
However, how can the ancient family heritage, deep-rooted concepts, and not experience some painful things in the world, how can they be easily changed? Grandpa's current remorse is nothing more than conveying to his grandfather back then.
Therefore, after the grandfather learned the news, the conflict between father and son naturally caused.
"At that time, I almost thought that your mother had used some kind of magic on your father to make your father fall in love with her. I really don't understand why? Speaking of talent, if your mother is really talented, even if she is a concubine, she will be promoted to a descendant. Speaking of appearance, cultivators are originally extraordinary, not to mention that among the four ancient cultivators, I don't know how many beautiful girls there are. Your father's appearance is not bad, and with his identity, which girl can't ask for it? Speaking of character, your mother is gentle and decent, which is good, but there are more girls like this, and I don't attach much importance to this. But, no matter what, your father is determined to marry your mother. ”
After saying that, Grandpa sighed, as if he had returned to that not too pleasant period.
At that time, my father was in love with my mother, and no one could stop it. Grandpa didn't understand or accept it, so he tried to convince him again and again, and brought my mother to the door, wanting him to show him that my mother actually has many advantages.
But my grandfather didn't give him any chance at all, and he didn't agree with my father marrying my mother as his wife.
During this period, the grandmother couldn't bear to let her son suffer so much, and she tried hard to persuade the grandfather.
Finally, with all kinds of efforts, the grandfather still took a step back, and he said to his father that he was not completely unacceptable to his mother, and the premise was that as long as his father could marry a girl who matched him, then he could take his mother as a concubine.
Although modern society is monogamous, I have long known that this set has not become a rule in the ancient cultivation family. Because it is a more naked and cruel world, where men can not only marry more, but if women have the ability, they can also marry multiple men. This seems unacceptable to us in the ordinary world.
Grandpa also promised his father that if the children born to his father by his mother were talented, he would also be treated the same as the children born by his father's wife. This is already a great concession for the grandfather who grew up in the Gu Xiu family.
However, unexpectedly, Dad did not agree with Grandpa's proposal at all, showed strong opposition, and said a lot of words to Grandpa to express his heart.
At this point, Grandpa took a deep breath of his pipe before saying, "I still remember what your father said back then." He said-I am obsessed with An Ting (my mother's full name is Wei Anting), and I am determined to tolerate other women in my heart. If I follow my father's proposal, I will not only lose An Ting's sincerity to me, but also another woman's life. Moreover, as a cultivator, you must have the thoughts in your heart, and An Ting and I are happy with each other, so we naturally have to hold the hand of our son, grow old with our son, and love for a lifetime. Otherwise, it is against my heart to do things, and I am sorry for the sincere feelings in my heart. So I categorically wouldn't accept my father's proposal. ”
Grandpa looked at me after saying this, but I couldn't help but shout hello to my father in my heart, and my heart was full of pride in him.
A man like Dad can be called a dignified man, responsible, and worthy of the feelings of others. It's really a blessing for my mom to have a man like my dad to love.
And thinking of the wavering Shen Jingyun, my heart stinged, will he understand this truth? Mutual affection is a kind of commitment, how can half-heartedness be allowed?
Under my father's confrontation, he and his grandfather naturally fell apart. In a fit of rage, Grandpa stabbed the family on this matter, trying to use the family's pressure to make Dad submit. And as the Lin family, of course, a genius like my father will never be allowed to marry an ordinary woman.
Later, it happened that my father eloped with my mother.
Under that extreme pressure, Dad compromised on the surface, but on a blind date arranged by the family for him, he never returned! He took his mother to the world of ordinary people, and they got married through ordinary people.
And this walk is several years.
In the past few years, my grandfather didn't know what kind of life my parents lived.
Because Dad's behavior deeply angered Grandpa, under extreme anger, Grandpa didn't go to Dad, he thought it would be better to let Dad live in the world of ordinary people, he thought that Dad had suffered a little, and he would naturally come back and compromise. Because Dad is a cultivator, in the world of ordinary people, where can he be provided with enough cultivation resources?
However, Grandpa's plan was completely wrong, time passed day by day, Dad did not return to the family, and there was no news.
From one year to two years, to three years...... The third brother of the Lin family was like a meteor that crossed the sky, shining for a while, and then disappeared completely.
The people who originally thought that Lin Wuye would rise to another heir to the mantle, gradually shifted their attention to other geniuses, and that genius Lin San, who would know where he was?
During that time, the grandfather was so miserable in his heart, and the whereabouts of his only son were unknown, so he vaguely realized that whether his son was a genius or a mediocre talent was not as important as his son by his side, even if he looked at it, it was a comfort.
But grandpa is so strong that he doesn't show these thoughts on his face, but grandma misses and cries day and night, misses her son, and her body can't stand it, and she weakens day by day, until she falls seriously ill.
At this time, Grandpa couldn't sit still anymore and finally made up his mind to find Dad.
In fact, he was also curious in his heart, what kind of power made his father stay in the world of ordinary people and never go back? What kind of life has he been living all these years?
The power of the Lin family is powerful, although the Gu Xiu family has always been a retreat, but there are still huge collateral and foreign forces. The existence of these Gu Xiu families is not a secret to the high-level, and they have dealings with each other for various reasons. Therefore, the Gu Xiu family also has a very great influence on the ordinary world.
It's just that the ordinary world is not worth mentioning at all for the Gu Xiu family, and they don't want to come into contact with too much.
In this context, it is not as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack for grandpa to find his father, he is the dignified Fifth Master Lin. So less than two months after his search began, there was news of his father, and he soon found his father's location.
When I heard this, I breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, as long as one of the two sides of the confrontation is loose, it means that things will develop in a clear direction.
And my grandfather continued to say to me, "I found your father. Seriously, when I showed up where he lived, I couldn't believe that my son, a genius who was counted among the four major families, was really willing to live an ordinary life...... At that time, he and your mother lived in an ordinary building, and the two of them worked in a nearby factory in a decent manner. Although life is not poor, it is not rich either, it is the most ordinary life. ”
Listening to my grandfather's story, I couldn't help but start to paint a picture of my parents' lives during that period.
It's 2013, so it should be the 80s, right? A most ordinary couple, working in an ordinary factory, is a very trivial and ordinary life, but it is also a very loving life. But who would have thought that they were actually a couple of cultivators? It's just a fantasy.
However, I can understand my parents, many people live such an ordinary and ordinary life, happy and peaceful days, who says that such a life is a bad thing?
At least for me, I have experienced drastic changes in my life in a short period of time, and I yearn for such an ordinary life.
"Grandpa, you must have been very angry when you found my father, right?" I looked at my grandfather carefully and asked, according to my grandfather's strong personality, violent temper, and attention to family inheritance, I will definitely be angry when I see my son "degenerate" like this!
But my grandfather looked at me lovingly, stood up and touched my hair, shook his head with a smile, and said, "I can't be angry." First, I'm afraid that he will run away again, and second, your mother was already pregnant at the time, that is, she was already pregnant with you, you know? ”
"Ah......?" I covered my mouth in some surprise, and when the story finally came to me, I felt a little unreal.
At that time, my mother was finally pregnant, just like a cycle of fate, it was not easy for my grandmother to conceive my father, and it took a long time to have my father's only son.
It was not easy for my mother to conceive me, and it took a few years for my father and my father to get married.
It was this pregnancy that my grandfather, who originally disliked the scarcity of his family, finally completely compromised, especially after knowing that it was not easy for my mother to get pregnant.
He chose a tacit attitude and approved of my parents' affair in this way. But he also said that he recognized it, but the family may not be able to approve it, so it is impossible to recognize the status of the wife if he wants to handle the marriage with great fanfare. If the two of them want to be together, they will be together silently, and they can only ensure that no one interferes anymore.
Even so, my father is no longer willing to return to the Lin family, he thinks this life is very good, and he is afraid that there will be unpredictable twists and turns in such a life when he returns to the Lin family.
But in the end, my dad compromised, and it was all because of me.
