Chapter 103: Schadenfreude?
Wang Chong didn't think much about it at all, the slap in the face would come so quickly.
And it's the kind of slapping, even if he feels that his skin is as thick as the king of the city wall, he also feels that his old face is swollen and can't be swollen anymore.
I tried every means to help Feng Huacheng increase his income last year, but I didn't want him and Zhou Rong to part ways, so as not to hurt Feng Yue.
Unexpectedly, it has only been more than a year, and Feng Huacheng used practical actions to tell Wang Chong what it means to slap his face.
I dialed the number of the magazine, and after a busy tone, the phone was connected.
Wang Zhong said directly to the point:
"Lao Shao! Stop Feng Huacheng's, and then issue a statement in the name of our magazine, from today onwards, our magazine will never serialize Shao Jingwen's literary works in any form, articles, poems, and so on. β
On the other end of the phone, Shao Jingwen was a little overwhelmed by Wang Chong's sudden move.
"Wait, what did you just say? I have bad ears and I can't hear clearly. Shao Jingwen didn't hear clearly, but he couldn't believe it.
Wang Zhong repeated what he had just said, his tone was cold, as if it was a volcano about to erupt, and the pressure under it was the magma that was constantly surging, although it was likely to erupt.
"Did I hear me right?" On the other end of the phone, Shao Jingwen looked incredulous.
Wang Chong emphasized again: "You heard it right. β
"Are you sure it's Feng Huacheng? Not someone else? β
"I'm sure it must be and sure, it's Feng Huacheng, my second sister's husband, my brother-in-law, the one you have a high opinion of his poems."
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while before Shao Jingwen's somewhat deep voice came: "Whether it is to stop serializing a piece, or to ban a once famous poet and now a member of the Writers' Association, I, the president of the magazine, must know the reason!" β
As if he was afraid that Wang Zhong would not be willing to speak, Shao Jingwen deliberately emphasized continuously.
It's a pity that he underestimated Wang Chong, in the eyes of people with more traditional concepts, family ugliness naturally cannot be publicized, but in Wang Chong's case, what if it is publicized.
The clear ones are self-purifying, and the turbid ones are turbid, not to mention that Feng Huacheng is not a member of the Zhou family, so it will not affect the reputation of the Zhou family, on the contrary, if this matter spreads, people will only sneer at the surname Feng and sympathize with Zhou Rong.
After listening to Wang Chong's words, Shao Jingwen was silent for a moment before he said: "I will pick one of the alternatives to make up for it, as for the statement, will it only be published in our magazine or will it also be published in Jiangliao Daily?" β
I'm rubbing, Lao Shao is also a ruthless person.
On the other end of the phone, after listening to Shao Jingwen's words, Wang Chong couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
"Just send it to our magazine, I will publish it in my name in Jiangliao Daily, I don't think their newspaper will even give me this little face."
"Good! I'll arrange it. β
"Lao Shao, thank you!" Wang Zhong said from the bottom of his heart.
Shao Jingwen's voice came again on the phone: "If there is anything that can help, just words." β
"Let's do it first, I still have some things to deal with here, and we'll talk about it later."
Wang Zhong hung up the phone and waved through the transparent glass.
Feng Yue, who was carrying a schoolbag, appeared and saw Wang Chong behind the window, and immediately grinned, very happy, jumped up and waved at Wang Chong, and ran in quickly.
"Little uncle!" As soon as Feng Yue sat down, the waitress came over with two cups of ice cream.
"Your favorite strawberry flavor." Wang Zhong said with a smile.
"Uncle is the best!" Feng Yue couldn't wait to pick up the spoon and eat it happily.
"Little uncle, why don't you call your cousin to come along!" While eating, Feng Yue asked curiously.
"Your cousin has gone back to the text." Zhou Cong is now a mature tool man, Feng Huacheng's matter has happened, and Li Suhua can't go wrong.
The old lady's high blood pressure is still a bit serious, and if the stimulation is too much, there is a high probability of cerebral hemorrhage.
Although the old lady has been taking relevant drugs in the past few years, her diet is also very light, and she usually eats less meat, more fresh vegetables and fruits.
If you put aside a few years ago, fresh vegetables and fruits are still a little difficult to get, in recent years, the scale of greenhouse planting in Xiaoshan Village is not small, every winter, all kinds of fresh vegetables are in short supply, now the scale is getting bigger and bigger, all year round, Wang Chongjia is not short of fresh vegetables at all.
Li Suhua's high blood pressure has also been controlled, but it has not been completely eradicated, although the probability of sudden cerebral hemorrhage has been greatly reduced, but it is still possible.
"Why did my cousin suddenly run back to the light word piece?" Feng Yue asked curiously.
"You'll find out later!" Wang Zhong said with a smile.
Although Feng Yue was puzzled, he still nodded, just took a bite of ice cream, looked at Wang Chong again, and asked, "Little uncle, why don't you eat it?" β
"Eat! How not to eat. Wang Zhong picked up the spoon, scooped a large spoonful, and dried it in one bite.
It's cool and translucent, and it's very comfortable.
Before the ice cream was finished, the waiter brought another plate of sliced fruit, a freshly baked brioche bread, and a few pieces of Western pastry.
Wang Chong said: "I don't think there will be dinner tonight, so let's eat some bread and fruit first!" β
"Ice cream with bread?" Feng Yue looked at the bread and fruit on the table, as well as the ice cream in front of him, and looked at Wang Chong puzzled: "Is this a special day?" β
Wang Zhong said: "You'll know later, hurry up and eat first, I've been in class for an afternoon, I'm definitely hungry." β
Feng Yue was not polite, first finished the ice cream, broke off a small piece of cream bread, ate a small pastry, and finally ate it with a fork and fruit.
While eating, a familiar figure book appeared on the side of the road outside the window, scanning around, as if looking for something.
"Mom?" Feng Yue glanced at the figure outside the window and said in surprise.
Then he immediately turned his head to look at Wang Chong, and asked suspiciously: "Little uncle, my mother?" β
Wang Zhong said: "I made an appointment." As he spoke, he waved to Zhou Rong, who happened to be looking out of the window.
Zhou Rong frowned, but still walked in with a satchel.
sat down directly beside Feng Yue, put the bag on his shoulder aside, and said to Wang Zhong directly: "What are you looking for me?" β
looks like an iceberg, and the attitude is really a bit bad.
Zhou Rong was wearing a long skirt, and her slightly curly hair was scattered at the back of her head, even if she was properly maintained, the hard experience in the early years and the ruthlessness of the years also left traces on that delicate face.
Even if the crow's feet at the corners of the eyes are covered by makeup, as long as the expression amplitude is slightly larger, it can't be hidden.
After all, he is forty-one years old this year, and he is one year older than Zheng Juan.
Looking at her self-righteous appearance, Wang Zhong shook his head, he was already used to it, he didn't bother to comment, took out the document bag from the briefcase at hand, and handed it to her: "See for yourself!" β
Zhou Rong took the file bag and opened it suspiciously, took out the things inside, and only looked at the top photo, and her face changed instantly.
Feng Yue leaned over curiously, it was no one else in the photo, it was a photo of Feng Huacheng hugging a strange young and beautiful woman.
Zhou Rong flipped down one by one, holding hands, shopping, hugging, and even kissingΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
Except for the bed photos, there are basically everything that should be there.
Zhou Rong's face became more and more ugly, and finally turned white, and then turned from white to blue, her eyes were round, her pupils contracted suddenly, her silver teeth were clenched, her cheeks were bitten a little bulging, and the movements of flipping photos became rough, and after the shock, endless anger rose in her chest.
Feng Yue is not a girl who is ignorant of the world, seeing these photos, how can she not guess what happened, the same little face is white, her eyes are flashing, she looks at her mother Zhou Rong nervously and worriedly, and for a while, she doesn't know what to say.
I only heard Wang Chong's voice sound again: "At the bottom is the woman's information, age, height, resume, unit, address, all on it." β
"Where did you get that?" All the photos were scattered on the table, and Zhou Rong grabbed the A4 paper with the woman's resume written on it, and even her breathing became much shorter.
Raising his eyes to stare at Wang Chong, Wang Chong could even see the shock and burning anger in her eyes.
"Of course I was looking for someone to shoot it! You don't need me to explain the information, right? Wang Chong still said not salty.
But the more insipid Wang Chong's performance became, the more awkward and uncomfortable Zhou Rong's heart became, "What do you mean by showing me this?" β
Wang Zhong looked at Zhou Rong, who asked such a stupid thing, shook his head in extreme disappointment, looked at her and said, "What do you mean by me?" β
Zhou Rong didn't speak, only looked at Wang Zhong angrily.
"Little uncle." Feng Yue looked at Wang Chong with tears in his eyes, and choked up: "This is not true, you tell me that these photos are not true?" β
Wang Zhong looked at Feng Yue and sighed: "Although I also hope that it is not true, the facts are in front of me. β
The two lines of tears slipped silently, Feng Yue subconsciously wanted to escape, and as soon as he stood up, he was grabbed by Wang Chong, who also got up: "Yueyue, escaping can't solve any problems, you are no longer a child." β
Feng Yue looked at Wang Chong with tears in his eyes and shouted, "Little uncle!" β
Then rushed forward into Wang Chong's arms, tears rained down, sobbed quietly, patted her lightly on the back, and comforted her softly in her ear: "I know that you are very uncomfortable now, and you can't accept this fact, but your mother is also uncomfortable, and now you are your mother's only persistence and support, you have to learn to be strong." β
Wang Zhong grabbed Feng Yue's shoulder, looked into her eyes and said, "Yueyue, be brave, be strong, we have no way to choose what kind of life awaits us, but we can choose to face it bravely." β
"And even if you escape for a while, can you escape for a lifetime?"
Feng Yue turned his head to look at Zhou Rong next to him, whose face was gloomy as water, and his ten fingers were tightly clutching the paper with the woman's resume information written on it, and something called courage surged in his heart, sat back, grabbed Zhou Rong's hand, and shouted: "Mom! β
As if she hadn't heard, Zhou Rong raised her eyes and glanced at Wang Chong, her eyes were as sharp as knives, her eyes were full of anger, and then she picked up the photos on the table, stuffed the photos and materials back into the file bag, and put them in her satchel.
Wang Zhong picked up the briefcase next to him and said to Zhou Rong: "If you doubt the authenticity of these photos, you can take them and question your dear husband." β
Then he raised his leg and left: "After all, this is your family matter, how do you want to deal with it, I have no right to ask, and I don't want to interfere, but I have already asked my magazine to issue a ban on Feng Huacheng, and soon I will publish a newspaper in Jiangliao Daily to reprimand him, calling on everyone to boycott him, and report him to the Zuo ~ Association for messing with ~ the relationship between men and women." β
"Little Uncle Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·" Feng Yue was startled when he heard Wang Chong's words, and was about to say something, but Wang Chong took the lead in interrupting him: "If you persuade me, then don't say it, I have made up my mind, as for the reason, I think your mother knows it." β
After speaking, he glanced at Zhou Rong meaningfully, shook his head, and left directly.
Feng Yue grabbed Zhou Rong's hand and asked with concern, "Mom, what did Uncle Xiao mean by what he said just now?" β
How could Zhou Rong not know, she really knew too well that when she had to go to Guizhou Province desperately, the first person to jump out against it was Wang Chong, and she threatened her with a report on Feng Huacheng.
also made a three-year appointment with her, and wanted to use three years to let her calm down and think clearly.
But three years later, Zhou Rong is still like a moth that pounces on the fire, and she can't wait, and she goes to Guizhou Province without hesitation to find the 'pure and beautiful' love that it regards as a belief.
Thinking of this, when recalling the meaningful and disappointed glance that he had just seen when Wang Chong left, Rao was always strong, and tears finally couldn't help but slip from the bottom of his eyes.
"Mom! Don't cry! Feng Yue didn't know how to comfort Zhou Rong, so she could only hold her hand.
Zhou Rong was still holding the folder in her right hand.
The look was a little scary.
Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
When Wang Chong saw Zhou Rong again, it was already a week later, and he ran to find Wang Chong.
Zhou Rong went back that day, found Feng Huacheng, and threw the photo and the woman's information given by Wang Zhong directly on Feng Huacheng's face.
Feng Huacheng didn't show any weakness after seeing the photo, and directly quarreled with Zhou Rong, Zhou Rong questioned him about cheating and scolded him for being shameless.
Feng Huacheng went back confidently, saying that Zhou Rong was domineering and high, living with Zhou Rong, and he couldn't breathe, etc.
The fight must not have started, Zhou Rong has always been used to being high-minded, how could he do it, but he just kicked Feng Huacheng out of the house on the spot, and threw all of Feng Huacheng's things out of the door like garbage.
The neighbors around wanted to persuade them, but after hearing the content of the quarrel between the two, they all chose to watch from the wall.
Feng Huacheng, who was kicked out of the house, scolded Zhou Rong while packing up his things, and when he left in the end, he also cursed.
Early the next morning, the two went directly to the Civil ~ Political ~ Bureau and pulled the divorce certificate.
That night, Zhou Rong drank a lot of wine, Feng Yue didn't dare to leave, and slept with Zhou Rong all night.
For the next few days, Zhou Rong locked herself in the room, flipped out the letters that she had been with Feng Hua one by one, opened them, read them, and then tore them up and burned them.
After all the letters were burned, all the photos of the two were also turned out by Zhou Rong, cut them out with scissors and Feng Huacheng, and burned them one by one.
Zhou Rong entrusted a colleague who lived in the dormitory to help herself and the school ask for leave, and she nested in the dormitory, except for going to the toilet, she never went out again.
Feng Yue looked really worried, but he didn't dare to go to Li Suhua, for fear that Li Suhua would be stimulated, Zhou Bingyi's words, Feng Yue himself didn't like it very much, and he was not familiar with it, and the only one who could find it was Wang Chong.
When Feng Yue arrived at Wang Chong's house, he was aggrieved and anxious, he was worried to death, and he didn't bother to say anything, so he cried directly for a while, and was appeased by Zheng Juan and Zhou Cong for a while, and his emotions calmed down a little, explaining his intention.
Seeing Feng Yue's crying pear blossoms with rain, Chu Chu's pitiful appearance, Wang Chong still relented in the end, Zheng Juan couldn't rest assured, and followed Feng Yue back to Zhou Rong's dormitory with Wang Chong.
Zhou Cong also wanted to follow, but there were three younger brothers and sisters at home, especially Xiaowei, who was only more than eight years old, and there was no adult at home, Wang Chong and Zheng Juan were not at ease, so Zhou Cong could only stay at home and send the three of them away.
"What are you doing here?" Zhou Rong sat at the desk, her hair was scattered, her figure was a little rickety, her face was haggard, and she didn't have any of her previous capable and elegant atmosphere.
"If you're here to see my jokes, you've achieved your goal." Zhou Rong's eyes seemed to be the only one left, Wang Chong.
Feng Yue wanted to say something, but was stopped by Zheng Juan next to her.
Wang Zhong moved a stool, sat directly opposite Zhou Rong, looked Zhou Rong up and down, and then nodded: "It is indeed a little unexpected by me." β
If this had been a normal time, Zhou Rong would have exploded, but this time there was no reaction to Wang Chong's expectations.
"I thought that as soon as you saw me, you would be furious and kick me out, but you are so calm, to be honest, it makes me a little impressed."
Wang Chong's tone was still flat, Zhou Rong finally raised his eyes again, looked at Wang Chong, and saw that his face was calm, his eyes were open, and he didn't see the slightest ridicule, but he was a little unaccustomed to it.
But that's just it, Zhou Rong's eyes just raised and quickly lowered again.
"I heard Yueyue say that you and Feng Huacheng are divorced?" Wang Zhong asked.
Zhou Rong was finally moved: "I got what you wanted!" Laugh as much as you want, don't hold back. β
"Why am I laughing?" Wang Zhong asked rhetorically.
Zhou Rong didn't answer, just stared at Wang Zhong like this, if that look was someone else, it would definitely be furious.
But Wang Zhong has long been immune to Zhou Rong.
"Are you thinking, I tried my best to prevent you from going to Guizhou Province to find Feng Huacheng, and forced you to go to the countryside to stay in Xiaoshan Village for three years, but in the end I still couldn't change your mind, so that you went to Guizhou Province to pursue your so-called faith, now it's okay, Feng Huacheng cheated, and the love you regarded as faith became a joke, so I deliberately ran over, and when I saw your embarrassed appearance, I would definitely laugh at you."
"Isn't it?" Zhou Rong asked rhetorically.
"A person who is ugly in his heart sees everything as bad, and a person who is good in his heart sees everything as good." Wang Zhong shook his head and looked at Zhou Rong calmly: "You are not me, how do you know what I think in my heart." β
"You think this because in your heart, I have always been such a person, or you yourself are such a person, so you think that I am also such a person."
Zhou Rong was slightly moved, obviously she didn't expect Wang Chong to say this.
She opened her mouth, and just wanted to say something, when she suddenly saw Wang Chong laughing, and then looked at her like a fool: "You won't really believe it, will you?" β
Zhou Rong was stunned on the spot, Wang Chong's laughter was so harsh when it fell on her ears, looking at Wang Chong's undisguised wild laughter, Zhou Rong only felt that she was about to explode, and an inexplicable anger came from her heart, and instantly swept through her whole body and rushed to her mind.
"Zhou Bingkun, you Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·" Zhou Rong pointed at Wang Chong and roared hoarsely.
"What are you!" Wang Chong suddenly turned his face and glared at Zhou Rong fiercely: "Do I owe you or what, you can't carry something." β
"I couldn't carry it more than ten years ago, and now I can't carry it clearly, it's nice to say, simple and high with faith, that's people flattering you, you are a love brain, stupid and stupid, a teenage girl, falling in love with an old man in his twenties, and desperately trying to elope with someone, even at the expense of breaking off relations with his parents.
Your parents gave birth to you and raised you for 20 years, provided you with education, gave you food, gave you clothes and clothing, and raised you until you were 20 years old, how did you repay them? For the sake of your so-called love, you will not hesitate to cut off the relationship with your parents, even if it is a moth to a fire. β
Zhou Rong's facial muscles kept floating, her eyes were round, and her face was a little hideous, but in the face of Wang Chong's scolding and questioning, even if she was angry, she couldn't say half a word of rebuttal.
"Look at your so-called love, the love that you once enshrined as a faith, you are at this point today, and it is completely your own doing."
"What kind of derailment did Feng Hua become? Is it really just his responsibility? You ask yourself, over the years, how did the two of you come over, a small quarrel for three days, a big quarrel for five days, I think it's less. β
"Yes, you are talented, you are high, you are amazing, you don't want to eat, don't dress, don't have a place to live, you are comfortable, happy, but you can't even give Yueyue a place to live, you are forty years old, and you have to throw your daughter to your younger brother and our mother, our mother is sixty or almost seventy, and I have to worry about you."
"What else do you have in your life besides your self-righteous loftiness?"
"If you want to be talented, you don't have talent, if you want a career, you don't have a career, you are still a graduate student of Yan University, a person in your forties, and now you are just an ordinary teacher, if you want to work without works, if you want to achieve or not, I really don't know where your arrogant confidence comes from."
"You are a failure to be a daughter, you are not a good wife as a wife, and your career is useless, as for being a mother, in order to maintain your quality of life, you have thrown your daughter to me and Juan'er for more than ten years, do you think you are worthy of being a mother?"
Wang Zhong looked at Zhou Rong and questioned sentence by sentence, not loudly, but every word fell on Zhou Rong's ears, like a thunderbolt exploding in her ears, like a knife constantly piercing her heart.
Ran out of the mud with her face, turned it over and over with the soles of her shoes full of mud and feces, and kicked it back into the mud after stepping on it, and finally had to throw stones into it to prevent her from having the slightest chance to pick up her face.
"Say no more!"
Sentence by sentence of questioning, like a knife, cut Zhou Rong one by one and pierced into her heart.
"Don't say it, don't say it!"
Zhou Rong couldn't cry anymore, snot and tears poured out, and Zheng Juan couldn't help frowning when she saw it.
