267: Peel back the cocoon and let the truth surface
The host master has never said nonsense with his eyes open in his life, and of course he will not break his vows because of Ouyang Yi.
But looking up at Ouyang Yi's expectant eyes, he suddenly became hesitant again.
I have known Ouyang Yi for 18 years.
He knew the pain that Ouyang Yi had hidden in his heart all these years.
Ouyang Yi doesn't look like a good person on the outside.
In fact, the heart is very soft
In the past 18 years, he has not only sincerely worshiped the Buddha and made significant contributions to scientific research, but also done many good deeds anonymously.
People like him deserve to be rewarded.
So, the host master pinched the Buddha beads in his hand and said with a smile: "Master Ouyang is right, your daughter does look exactly like you." β
Amitabha.
Buddha, please forgive him.
This is a white lie.
Ouyang Yi was very happy to be affirmed by the host master.
They all say that their families don't speak.
Now even the host master says that his daughter looks exactly like him.
That daughter must have looked exactly like him.
Ouyang Yi looked at the host master, "Master host, you really have a good eye!" β
The host master looked up at the sky.
Sins, sins, sins.
I didn't expect him to say it with a clear conscience.
The host master was afraid that if he continued to talk to Ouyang Yi about this topic, he would say more things that violated his conscience, so he immediately changed the topic, "Master Ouyang, you came here so early today, did you have something to do with the old man?" β
"No, no," Ouyang Yiren was in good spirits on happy occasions, "I'm here to repay my vows, thank the Bodhisattva for giving me such an excellent daughter, and thank the Bodhisattva for giving me a chance to be reborn." β
The host master nodded, and took Ouyang Yi to burn incense and kowtow.
Before leaving the temple, Ouyang Yi also donated a sum of sesame oil money.
The host master handed Ouyang Yi a peace charm, "Master Ouyang, the Bodhisattva will bless you." This is for Ouyang Qianjin, wishing Lingqianjin smooth sailing, peace and joy on the road of life in the future. β
"Thank you, Master." Ouyang Yi took the peace charm with both hands.
After leaving the temple, Ouyang Yi came to Tang's house.
This was the first time Lu Tang had seen Ouyang Yi up close.
Although I also watched it last night.
But because it was dark at night.
Now it seems that although Ouyang is nearly fifty years old, his body is very strong, with a long beard, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a high nose bridge.
Ouyang Yi doesn't look like a literati at all now, but like a general who fought on the battlefield in ancient times.
It's all full of murderous energy.
Lu Tang suddenly remembered a rumor.
Ouyang Yi's hands were also stained with blood, but he didn't know if this rumor was true.
She had fantasized countless times that she could become Ouyang Yi's daughter and change Ouyang Yi, who had a strange personality.
Unexpectedly, the person who has now become Ouyang Yi's daughter has become Lin Wei.
Lu Tang gritted his back molars, tried his best to hide the jealousy in his eyes, walked to Ouyang Yi's side, and spoke boldly, "Uncle Ouyang, I'm Lu Tang." β
What if Lin Yu is Ouyang Yi's daughter?
She has climbed the line of Ouyang's family!
She must drive Lin Yu out of the capital.
Thinking of this, a happy look flashed in Lu Tang's eyes.
Lu Tang?
Ouyang Yi frowned slightly.
He didn't know who this man was.
Ouyang Yi has a very strange temper.
For people I don't know, I don't have a good face.
In the Tang family.
He only needs to respect the old man and the old lady of the Tang family, Lin Guixiang and his daughter.
Seeing him like this, Lu Tang hurriedly chased after him, "Uncle Ouyang, I am the cousin of Sister Xiaoyu, and I usually have a very good relationship with Sister Xiaoyu. β
Have a very good relationship with Lin Wei?
Hearing this, Ouyang Yi's pace slowed down a few steps.
Seeing this, Lu Tang breathed a sigh of relief and kept up with Ouyang Yi's footsteps.
"You have a good relationship with Grandma?" Ouyang Yi looked back at Lu Tang.
"Well," Lu Tang was a little surprised that Ouyang Yi was so concerned about Lin Yan's affairs, "Uncle Ouyang, Xiaoyu's sister is so good, everyone in our Tang family likes her very much?" β
"Your Tang family?" Ouyang Yi frowned.
Lu Tang also realized that there might be something wrong with his words, and immediately changed his words, "Uncle Ouyang, I mean, Sister Xiaoyu is not only good-looking, but also very good-looking, and we all like her very much. β
Ouyang Yi likes to listen to others praise his daughter, and then said: "Then let me ask you, what does Auntie like the most?" β
He plans to surprise his daughter.
What does Lin Yu like the most?
Where does this Lu Tang know?
But she has a way to deal with Ouyang Yi, "Uncle Ouyang, girls, they just like luxury goods and bags." β
"Are you going to give your little sister a gift?"
When the words fell, Lu Tang felt that he was thinking too much.
How could a cold-blooded and cold-hearted person like Ouyang Yi prepare a gift for Lin Yu?
He is willing to come to the Tang family now, and it is estimated that he was forced by Old Lady Ouyang.
But Old Lady Ouyang is old after all.
Once she is dead, who else in the Ouyang family will support Lin Yu?
So.
As long as she firmly grasps Ouyang Yi now and lets Ouyang Yi see herself, she will definitely be able to drive Lin Yu out of Ouyang's house.
"Yes," Ouyang Yi nodded, "I'm going to give my daughter a gift that is unique in this world." β
When he said the words 'my daughter', the look in Ouyang Yi's eyes changed.
In that way, Lin Yu is simply regarded as a treasure in his heart.
Lu Tang was stunned.
How could it be......
How so?
Didn't you say that Ouyang Yi was cold-blooded and cold-hearted?
Why, does he attach so much importance to Lin Yu?
Lu Tang's eyes flashed with deep unwillingness, "Uncle Ouyang, I really envy my little sister for having a loving father like you." β
Ouyang Yi hurriedly went to find his daughter, and looked at Lu Tang with some impatience, "Are you okay?" β
Lu Tang was stunned, obviously he didn't expect Ouyang Yi to ask like this.
Ouyang Yi continued: "If it's okay, don't follow me, I don't think you know my daughter very well." β
If she really had a very good relationship with Lin Yan, she wouldn't have said so generally that girls love luxury goods and bags.
After saying this, Ouyang Yi walked quickly towards the east courtyard.
Lu Tang looked at Ouyang Yi's back and bit his lip tightly.
Why?
Why is God so unfair?
Everyone is so good to Lin Yu.
And she......
It's like a poor worm.
She tried her best to please everyone around her, but they didn't look at her seriously.
Obviously she is no worse than anyone else.
But why, do they all turn a blind eye to themselves?
Tang Shaowei and Fang Youling are like this.
Old Lady Ouyang and Ouyang Yi were the same.
If it weren't for Lin Wei, she would have been the daughter of the Ouyang family by now!
It's all to blame on Lin Wei!
Lu Tang stomped his foot angrily and trampled several ants on the ground.
"Sugar Candy!"
Fang Hongyu's voice rang out in the air.
Lu Tang came back to his senses and looked back at Fang Hongyu, "Mom." β
Fang Hongyu continued: "What are you doing here? β
Lu Tang said: "I just saw the Ouyang family master. β
It's a good thing to see the head of the Ouyang family.
But looking at her daughter's appearance, she must have hit the wall at Ouyang Yi's place.
Fang Hongyu lowered her voice, "Tangtang, the Ouyang family master is much more complicated than you think. β
Ouyang Yi became famous as a teenager.
The mind is definitely not as simple as imagined, and naturally it is not so easy to approach.
"Mom, do you think I can still be the goddaughter of the Ouyang family?"
According to Ouyang Yi's attitude towards her......
Definitely not.
Is her hope going to be dashed?
She was not convinced.
Unconvinced, he lost to Lin Yu like this.
Fang Hongyu narrowed her eyes, "The daughter of the Ouyang family? What is the daughter of the Ouyang family? The water spilled by the daughter who got married, even if Lin Yu is the daughter of the Ouyang family, she will marry sooner or later! β
"Then what do you mean......" Lu Tang didn't understand the meaning of his mother's words for a while.
Fang Hongyu didn't answer her daughter's words, but said, "Do you know why Lin Yu is Ouyang Yi's daughter?" β
"Why?" Lu Tang immediately asked.
Fang Hongyu then told the story of the incident twenty years ago.
The Ouyang family did not deliberately hide this matter.
After all, they will hold a banquet on the 18th of next month to recognize Lin Yu in a high-profile manner.
Therefore, Fang Hongyu almost didn't take much time to investigate the matter.
Hearing this, Lu Tang's eyes widened, and he said incredulously: "You mean, the head of the Ouyang family was calculated back then?" β
It's okay to be drugged and calculated once.
I was even calculated twice by the same woman!
Who would believe this if they hadn't heard it with their own ears?
"That's right." Fang Hongyu nodded.
Lu Tang continued: "Zhou Min, that woman is really very powerful, if she doesn't die, it is estimated that this secret has not been exposed until now." β
"You're getting the focus wrong."
Lu Tang was stunned again.
Fang Hongyu continued: "It can be seen from this incident that Ouyang Yi is a very responsible person, no matter whether the other party uses means or not, once that person is pregnant with his child, he will be responsible to the end." β
Lu Tang narrowed his eyes, "Mom, what do you mean, find someone to climb into Ouyang Yi's bed?" Give Ouyang Yi a son again? β
Lin Yu is a girl after all.
If the other party can give birth to a boy, how can the Ouyang family have anything to do with Lin Yu?
"Yes."
Lu Tang was in trouble, "But who are you looking for?" β
She couldn't trust anyone.
Even if the other party can be controlled by them now, once the heir of the Ouyang family is born, can he continue to be controlled by them?
Fang Hongyu hooked her lips and looked at Lu Tang, "This person is far away in the sky, close in front of you." β
Lu Tang gasped and swallowed, "What do you mean ......."
"Well," Fang Hongyu nodded, "That's what I meant." β
Lu Tang grabbed Fang Hongyu's hand, "Mom, you can't do this!" If you do, what will my dad do? β
When Lu Tang was a child, Fang Hongyu had to worry about the inside and outside of the Tang family, and she hardly took her with her.
So her relationship with her father will be much deeper.
Seeing Lu Tang like this, Fang Hongyu smiled and said, "Ah, my stupid daughter, what are you thinking?" β
Lu Tang looked at Fang Hongyu, "Did I say something wrong?" But that's not what you mean? β
Except for Fang Hongyu, who can give Ouyang Yi a son?
Fang Hongyu held her daughter's hand and said very seriously: "Tangtang, mom is letting you go!" β
What is it to be the daughter of the Ouyang family?
If Lu Tang can climb into Ouyang Yi's bed, he will be the head of the Ouyang family in the future.
When the time comes, even Lin Yu will have to listen to Lu Tang.
And that's not all.
She still has to call Lin Yu Mom.
Thinking of this, Fang Hongyu hooked the corners of her lips, and her face was full of smug smiles.
Lu Tang was directly stunned, and immediately pulled out his hand, "Mom, do you know what you're talking about?" The head of the Ouyang family is almost fifty years old! β
The most important thing is that Ouyang Yi is full of murderous energy, and he is not easy to provoke at first glance, and even if he says a word to him, Lu Tang has to muster up the courage.
Not to mention climbing Ouyang Yi's bed!
She couldn't do that kind of thing.
"Tangtang," Fang Hongyu took her daughter's hand again, "You have to do this." β
Lu Tang frowned tightly.
Fang Hongyu continued: "First, you are young and beautiful and have this capital. Second, only after becoming the head of the Ouyang family, do you have the right to drive Lin Yu out of the Ouyang family. Second, although Ouyang Yi is fifty years old, he doesn't look old at all, and there are girls in the capital who are younger than you who want to stick to her. β
"But none of them have this opportunity, only you have this opportunity."
Lu Tang is still very reluctant, she is a polite and honest person, "But he is almost the same age as you, besides, even if I really succeed in ascending to the top, what will people outside think of me?" Lin Yu and I were originally cousins, but we were in a hurry to be her stepmother, and we looked so ugly, how would you let me behave in the future? β
Fang Hongyu smiled and said, "Face? What is a face? Our mother and daughter have been working hard in the Tang family over the years, and they have worked hard to leave a good impression on everyone in the circle, but in the end? What do we get in the end? When Lin Guixiang's mother and daughter did not come back, everyone was respectful to us. What now? Now when we go out, they won't take the initiative to say hello to us if we meet head-to-head! β
"People are all power animals, only the higher you climb, the more people will respect you! Instead of looking at your face, they will respect you! β
"Believe it or not, when you wait for the rest of your Ouyang family, everyone will still rush to slap you."
After all, Lin Yu is a girl and cannot be passed on to the next generation, only the son born to Lu Tang can be called the eldest son.
Fang Hongyu's words were subdued and frustrated, and there was evidence, so that Lu Tang couldn't refute it at all.
Yes.
Mother was right.
In this circle, face is the least valuable thing.
Their mother and daughter had never done anything indecent.
But as soon as Lin Guixiang's mother and daughter came back, everyone changed their faces.
Seeing that her daughter was moved, Fang Hongyu patted Lu Tang's hand, and then said, "Tangtang, I'm your mother, will I still hurt you?" β
As a mother, she wants her daughter to be better in the future than anyone else.
Speaking of this, Fang Hongyu said again: "Tangtang, Mom has had enough days under the fence, so Mom hopes that you can live better than Mom, at least you can get what you want, and you don't need to look at other people's faces." β
Lu Tang bit his lip and didn't speak.
Fang Hongyu took advantage of the victory to pursue, "Tangtang, in its current form, the Ouyang family master is your best choice. Although my mother is sure that she can get the inheritance of the Tang family, after all, Lin Yu has the support of the Ouyang family behind her......"
But if Lu Tang marries Ouyang Yi, it will be different.
When the time comes.
The Tang family is hers.
The Ouyang family is a daughter's.
Their mother and daughter joined forces to see who else in the capital dared to look down on them.
After a long time, Lu Tang nodded, "Okay Mom, I listen to you, I listen to you." β
Seeing that her daughter knew the overall situation so well, Fang Hongyu's eyes were full of relief, "Tangtang, if you think so, Mom will be relieved." β
Lu Tang continued: "But Mom, you have also seen the attitude of the Ouyang family master, I am afraid that he is not easy to approach. β
It was difficult for her to even get close to Ouyang Yi, let alone conceive Ouyang Yi's child.
Lu Tang was very worried.
"Leave this question to Mom, Mom has her own way." Fang Hongyu hooked the corners of her lips.
Lu Tang nodded.
Fang Hongyu continued: "You go with your mother now, let's go pick up your Grandma Wu." β
"Okay."
Lu Tang followed in his mother's footsteps.
After about half an hour, the mother and daughter arrived at the Wu Medical Center.
Wu Muzhen had already packed up her salute and stood at the door of the store, "Hongyu, I've lived here for more than ten years, and now I'm really reluctant to leave suddenly." β
Fang Hongyu smiled and said, "Aunt Wu, I will come back to accompany you more often when I have time in the future." β
"Okay." Wu Muzhen nodded, "Hongyu, you are really a good boy who is sensible and filial. β
Hearing this, Lu Tang's face was full of melancholy.
What's the use of being sensible and filial?
Fang Youling and Tang Shaowei didn't like it.
They only like Lin Guixiang.
Lu Tang hugged Wu Muzhen's arm, "Grandma Wu, it would be nice if you were my grandmother." β
If Wu Muzhen was Fang Youling, she would definitely not do such a thing to hurt Fang Hongyu.
Pity......
Heaven does not fulfill people's wishes.
Wu Muzhen is not Fang Youling.
Wu Muzhen smiled and said, "Tangtang, if you like Grandma Wu, you can also treat me as your own grandmother." β
Fang Hongyu nodded, "Tangtang, your Grandma Wu is right. β
After getting in the car.
Wu Muzhen's mobile phone rang.
Bite!
She took out her phone, and her expression suddenly became ugly.
Seeing her like this, Fang Hongyu immediately asked, "What's wrong with Aunt Wu?" β
Wu Muzhen wrinkled her eyebrows, "Your Aunt Zheng has been arrested." β
Fang Hongyu said: "Is that Aunt Zheng Suzhen who has a good relationship with you?" β
"Yes." Wu Muzhen nodded.
Fang Hongyu immediately asked, "What's going on?" β
Wu Muzhen continued: "I don't know exactly what's going on, these days, I want to go to Gannan Province." β
Just go these days?
Fang Hongyu thought of her layout and narrowed her eyes, "Aunt Wu, since Aunt Zheng has been arrested, even if you take a plane over immediately, you may not be able to see her." Otherwise, when I settle this matter, can I accompany you in person? β
Hearing this, Wu Muzhen looked up at Fang Hongyu.
After a while, Wu Muzhen nodded, "Okay, then I'll go back in a while." β
Fang Hongyu clenched Wu Muzhen's hand, "Aunt Wu, you are so good to me and Tangtang, don't worry, Tangtang and I will definitely give you a pension." β
Wu Muzhen smiled and said, "Hongyu, if you have this heart, I am already very happy." β
Tang family.
Lin Guixiang was still a little afraid of the tattoo on Ouyang Yi's hand.
Even though Ouyang Yi tried his best to show affection, she still stayed away from him.
If it weren't for the paternity test that was placed there.
She would never believe that the other party was her daughter's biological father.
After all, Lin Yu perfectly avoided Ouyang Yi's appearance.
Luckily, I avoided it!
Otherwise, a girl who looks so big and three thick looks like she probably won't be able to get married.
"Qiushui, IβCan I call you that?" Ouyang Yi looked at Lin Guixiang cautiously.
"It's just a name, you can call it however you want." Lin Guixiang said.
But talking is talking, why does Ouyang Yi always want to lean towards her?
Lin Guixiang now felt dizzy and very frightened as soon as she saw the tattoo on Ouyang Yi's hand.
Although she knew that Ouyang Yi was a good person.
But she just couldn't get over it.
Ouyang Yi took a step forward, and she took two steps back, always keeping a distance from Ouyang Yi.
Ouyang Yi frowned without a trace, "You, are you afraid of me?" β
Lin Guixiang said honestly, "I'm sorry, I'm naturally sensitive to tattoos......"
It turned out to be a tattoo.
Ouyang Yi immediately reached out and pulled his sleeve, trying to cover the tattoo, but because his flower arm was tattooed on the back of his hand, even if he pulled down all the sleeves, he couldn't cover it.
"Don't be afraid, I'm not a good person."
Yes?
Lin Guixiang was stunned.
Realizing that he had said the wrong thing, Ouyang Yi immediately said: "Slip of the tongue, I mean I'm not a bad person, don't be afraid, I'll go wash the tattoo immediately." β
Before Lin Guixiang could even react, Ouyang Yi ran away.
As soon as the old lady Ouyang entered the house, she saw that her son was running faster than a thief, and wondered, "Qiushui, what's wrong with him?" Is your brain bad again? β
In fact, Mrs. Ouyang has always been a very humorous person.
It's just that there have been too many worries over the years, so she has no intention of joking.
At this point, the knot is untied.
She also wanted to be as happy as she wanted, and the way she spoke was naturally a little more cheerful.
Lin Guixiang said: "He said he was going to get his tattoo washed." β
Tattoo washing?
Old Lady Ouyang was full of black question marks on her face, "Qiushui, you must have heard it wrong!" β
Ouyang Yi usually treats those tattoos like babies, she has said countless times that tattoos affect the image, but he has not been able to listen to them once.
How to ...... now? Say wash to wash?
It's also incredible.
So, it must have been Lin Guixiang who heard it wrong.
"That's right, that's what he said." Lin Guixiang continued: "Auntie, is it strange for him to wash his tattoos?" β
"Strange! Very strange! It's even stranger than the red rain in the sky, Qiushui, you don't know how precious those tattoos he usually has! Over the years, I have been told by ear, but he has never been able to listen. Why do you suddenly want to get your tattoo washed now? β
It's not just weird anymore.
Hearing this, Lin Guixiang glanced in the direction that Ouyang Yi had just left, and said with a smile: "Then maybe I heard it wrong." β
She shouldn't have let Ouyang Yi wash away the charm of those baby tattoos.
"By the way, Qiushui, I brought something here." Old Lady Ouyang remembered her business.
"What's that?" Lin Guixiang was very curious.
Old Lady Ouyang took out a box, "This is a thousand-year-old wild ginseng, which is very rare, and it will definitely help your father's body." β
Millennial wild ginseng is hard to find.
This is also what Mrs. Ouyang spent a lot of money and connections to get, and originally wanted to keep it for emergency use.
But even if she dies tomorrow, she won't have any regrets.
So this ginseng ......
It's not much use.
Lin Guixiang naturally knew the preciousness of the thousand-year-old wild ginseng, and immediately refused, "No, no, no, aunt, we can't accept such a valuable thing from you." β
Old Lady Ouyang casually put the ginseng on the table and said with a smile: "What is this?" We are all a family, what is this family divided into yours and mine? Qiushui, if you refuse again, I'm going to be angry. β
Lin Guixiang couldn't refuse, so she had to accept it.
During the meal, Wu Muzhen was also on the table.
Fang Youling announced to everyone that Wu Muzhen would live in the Tang family for a long time in the future.
Lin Guixiang stood up, "Welcome Aunt Wu." β
"Thank you Qiushui for accepting me as a bad old woman." Wu Muzhen's face was full of gratitude.
Lin Guixiang said with a smile: "If you say that, it will be too outward, you and my mother are good sisters and her life-saving benefactor, and now it is also appropriate to take you home to care for the elderly." β
Wu Muzhen nodded and looked at Fang Youling, "Sister Youling, this child in Qiushui is like you, kind and sensible. β
Fang Youling was also full of smiles.
Lin Yu glanced at Wu Muzhen with a faint expression.
Nine o'clock in the evening.
Lin Yu came to the study.
Fang Youling was practicing calligraphy.
"Grandma, I want to tell you something."
Fang Youling immediately put down the pen, "Little girl, you say." β
"I suspect that my mother's loss and my grandfather's illness have a lot to do with Wu Muzhen, you can't trust this person too much." Lin Yu went straight to the point.
Although Lin Yu had also said Wu Muzhen in front of Fang Youling before.
But she was only skeptical.
But this time was different.
Her tone was firm.
"Little girl, did you find something?" Fang Youling asked.
Lin Yu shook her head slightly, "I haven't found anything yet, but it's too soon." β
She's touching the vine.
Stripping and cocooning.
Fang Youling smiled and looked at her granddaughter, "Xiaoyu, I know that you said this for the good of grandma, and I am afraid that grandma will be hurt again, but I don't think your grandma Wu is that kind of person, if she really wants to kill us, she just chose to stand by back then, and there is no need to save us at all." I believe she is a good person. β
It was precisely because she believed in Wu Muzhen that she asked Fang Hongyu to take Wu Muzhen over.
She has been a friend with Wu Muzhen for more than ten years, and she can't bear to watch Wu Muzhen die alone.
"Grandma, have you ever thought that the accident back then might have been caused by Wu Muzhen?"
She first harmed people and then saved people, and finally gained Fang Youling's trust.
But what was her purpose in doing this? It doesn't do her any good for her to be close to us. β
"Perhaps, she is helping Fang Hongyu." Lin Yu said.
Fang Youling hurriedly waved his hand, "This is even more impossible, when I met your Grandma Wu, your Grandma Wu didn't even know about the existence of the red jade." Little girl, you must have thought too much! β
"I haven't found out the reason for this yet, but grandma, you still have to cooperate with my plan for the time being."
Fang Youling nodded, "Grandma can continue to cooperate with your acting, but if Hongyu still doesn't act as you expected in the next month, then we have to stop this plan, and you have to accept Cousin Hongyu." β
They are all family, and Fang Youling really loves Fang Hongyu's niece, she believes that Fang Hongyu is not that kind of person.
Therefore, she is willing to cooperate with her granddaughter's plan, so that her granddaughter can dispel the doubts in her heart and get along with Fang Hongyu in the future.
