Chapter 68
After the banquet, Sheng Yuanqing and Sheng Zhongchang left the General's Mansion with a smile.
After returning to the Sheng family's house, Sheng Yuanqing called Sheng Zhongchang to the study.
Sheng Yuanqing asked Sheng Zhongchang to go in first. He walked behind and asked his confidant to guard outside. Sheng Yuanqing closed the door and turned around.
Sheng Zhongchang endured it for a long time, and could no longer suppress his anger and said angrily: "Father, why are you..."
Before he could finish speaking, Sheng Yuanqing raised his hand and slapped it in the face.
With a crisp "pop", Sheng Zhongchang tilted his head by him, and a red palm print appeared on his fair handsome face.
This is Sheng Yuanqing still remembers the father-son relationship between the two, and only 30% of his strength was used. Otherwise, a tall and burly man who traveled around the world could spit out blood, a handsome scholar, Sheng Zhongchang.
"You have been studying hard for many years in the books of sages. How dare you sweep my face in front of outsiders? Do you still know how to write the word "filial piety"?"
When Sheng Zhongchang looked over angrily, Sheng Yuanqing asked calmly, "I am the father who gave birth to you and raised you. Why? General Yin just wanted to give you an insignificant little official, so you forgot who your surname is? Fortunately, I made a quick decision to ruin your dream, otherwise you would have become an official and be humble in front of him for a long time. I think you will even forget who your ancestors are!"
Sheng Zhongchang lowered his eyes and his lips trembled slightly.
He finally knew why his father was untrustworthy and opposed him becoming an official under Yin Chong's command.
But at that time, my father teased Shaoyao in front of Yin Chong, so he was not afraid that Shaoyao would lose his appearance. Yin Chong saw the clues and took his anger on their father and son?
My father also said that he was lustful and that the real person who was so envious was his father!
Covering his face with one hand, Sheng Zhongchang sneered sarcastically and stared at Sheng Yuanqing and said, "Father cares about face too? So what if the general's wife is radiant? Is that what you, a big man, should evaluate? Dad, don't forget that you are just her nominal brother, so you are not afraid that the general will see what he will see and turn around to deal with you?"
Sheng Yuanqing frowned: "What's wrong with me praising her beauty? I have praised other officials as such, just flattering words. What can he see?"
Sheng Zhongchang only thought he was shameless and hypocritical.
Sheng Yuanqing looked at his son's angry but not speaking out, and suddenly understood and sarcastically said, "I understand, you have bad intentions towards her, so I just plainly flattered you, and you judge a gentleman's ambition by the heart of a villain, thinking that I also care about Shaoyao, right?"
Sheng Zhong often felt that the old man was still pretending, and he was really angry and laughed. If he hadn't promised that Shaoyao wouldn't tell the truth, Sheng Zhongchang really wanted to expose the old man's ugly face directly.
"Whatever you say." Sheng Zhongchang spat, bypassed Sheng Yuanqing and was about to snatch the door and leave.
Sheng Yuanqing still had a doubt. He grabbed his wrist and asked in a deep voice: "Tell me truthfully, what happened when you went to the General's Mansion alone last time? Why did the General's Madam smile at you and not care about the past at all?"
Sheng Zhongchang didn't expect that the old man could see the clues as if he was careful. His thoughts flipped and said lightly: "The General wants to promote me. If she doesn't smile at me, would she give me a cold face so that the General can ask her why she is not in harmony with me?"
Sheng Yuanqing was stunned, but he had never thought of this explanation.
Sheng Zhongchang left with half of his blushing face.
Sheng Yuanqing stood in the study. He felt that Shaoyao was cold to him just to hide it. He also suspected that Shaoyao had changed his mind and wanted to distance himself from him.
However, soon Sheng Yuanqing was not in the mood to guess Su Li's worries, because his own son, Sheng Zhongchang, had a sudden rebellious heart, and was facing him everywhere. Sheng Yuanqing asked his son to learn how to manage his business, but Sheng Zhongchang insisted on not learning, and went to brothels to drink and have fun all day long, getting drunk and unconscious.
Sheng Yuanqing personally took someone to the brothel to tie his son home. He poured several buckets of cold water on it, and finally woke up Sheng Zhongchang's wine.
When Sheng Zhongchang saw him, he pulled off the fake finger from his right hand like crazy, and kept gestured to Sheng Yuanqing: "Did you see, see, my hand is already ruined, I am a waste! Don't you believe me? What business do you want me to learn! I am a waste, everyone can mercy on it!"
Sheng Yuanqing was proud and elegant in front of others all his life, but his carefully cultivated son became like this. He was stubborn and unyielding. Sheng Yuanqing felt embarrassed. He had already persuaded him with all his heart. Sheng Yuanqing didn't want to face such a son anymore, so he ordered people to lock Sheng Zhongchang in the room and only gave him three meals a day. When did Sheng Zhongchang figure it out and let him out?
Sheng Yuanqing was extremely disappointed with his son, and Sheng Zhongchang was also ashamed of being reincarnated as his son.
If he cannot be an official, Sheng Zhongchang felt that his life was ruined. His biological father only treated him as a pawn and not as a human being. He gave his beloved woman to others with his own hands. After finally giving him a future, he was ruined by his father. What's the point of living like this?
On the fifth day of being confined, Sheng Zhongchang woke up in the middle of the night. The moonlight was hazy. Sheng Zhongchang raised his right hand, looked at the bare three-cut fingers, and recalled his sad life. Sheng Zhongchang felt as if he was dead.
He smiled bitterly three times, and his whole body was stiff and he got out of bed.
Stepping on the bench, Sheng Zhongchang twisted his pants into a rope and put them on the beam of the house, and tied a knot hard.
Sheng Zhongchang put his neck in and closed his eyes.
When he thought of his success, his husband and guests praised him for being the top scholar, but his hands were ruined and his dream of being the top scholar was shattered.
He thought of the enchanting and beautiful peony, but her father had already given it to someone else.
He thought of his father who seemed to be pampering him, but he didn't care about his feelings at all.
There is really nothing in this world that he is worth nostalgic for.
Sheng Zhongchang made a fuss and kicked the chair over.
There were two servants outside the door, and at midnight, they slept steadily against the door, but they did not hear the muffled sound.
The next morning, breakfast was brought to the kitchen. The servant pushed open the door, walked inside and took a look, and immediately knelt down.
Sheng Yuanqing thought he would wait for his son's great enlightenment to change his mind, but he didn't expect that he would hear the bad news of his son hanging himself in the morning.
Sheng Yuanqing started to manage his business since he was a teenager. Twenty years have passed, and he has not been smooth sailing in these twenty years, but nothing has hit him more than the blow to his son.
Sheng Yuanqing staggered to his son's yard, saw his son's body with his own eyes, and touched his son's hand that had become cold. Sheng Yuanqing's throat was fishy and he vomited blood.
——
In the General Office, Su Li was having breakfast with Yin Chong. Yin Chong liked to eat meat buns. In the past, Su Li would have eaten one. I don’t know what happened this morning, and just took a bite, the smell of meat came to his nose. Su Li suddenly felt nauseous, threw the bun and turned his head, patted his chest a few times in a row, and finally suppressed the disgust.
Yin Chong looked at her strangely: "What's wrong?"
Su Li glared at him resentfully.
Yin Chong was confused: "When did I offend you again?"
Su Li snorted: "I feel uncomfortable, go and invite the doctor to come."
Yin Chong still couldn't understand why she was uncomfortable, but her beautiful wife felt uncomfortable. Yin Chong immediately sent someone to invite a doctor, and stopped eating the buns. He helped Su Li to the house and asked her with concern how she felt uncomfortable.
Su Li is counting her days. Yin Hong, whom she married in March, is now August. Yin Hong is so greedy, it is too late to get pregnant now.
"The waist is sore." Su Li said deliberately, wanting to wait for the doctor to come and give him a surprise.
How could my waist be sore? Yin Chong looked at the little beauty on the bed and suddenly thought of last night. He couldn't help but smile: "I drank some wine last night, it's too hot. I'll let you rest for a few nights this time. Let's come back after you've raised it."
Su Li replied with a sweet smile: "Sir, I'm so nice to me."
But what I was thinking was, how many nights would she take? This time she would take a break for almost a year, and Yin Chong was still waiting.
After the doctor came, Yin Chong put down the curtain and asked Su Li to stretch out one arm.
The doctor took Su Li's pulse and asked Su Li's menstruation again. When Su Li said that the menstruation of this month had not yet arrived, the doctor immediately smiled at Yin Hong and said, "Congratulations, Madam, this is a happy meridian, and sir is going to be a father."
Yin Chong looked at him blankly.
The doctor saw that many men were stupid when they first heard that they wanted to be their father, and just smiled and waited.
Yin Chong was stunned for a long time, and his cold eyebrows stretched out bit by bit. He swallowed his saliva and asked the doctor: "Is it really pregnant?"
The doctor nodded and said, "It's true, but the wife is pregnant for a short time. You should pay attention to rest in the next three months. You must not be tired and cold. It is best not to get angry and exhausted, so as not to get angry and get angry."
Su Li knew how to raise her baby. She smiled and lay on the bed, watching Yin Hong chasing the doctor through the hazy curtain.
As soon as the doctor left, Yin Chong picked up the curtain, his black eyes seemed to be filled with stars, and he looked at Su Li excitedly: "Did you hear that? I'm going to be a father!"
Su Li shouted at him: "I've just got pregnant and I'll have nine months to give birth. Are you so excited?"
Yin Hong helped her sit up, hugged someone and kissed her face: "Why aren't you excited? Before I met you, I thought I would live alone in my life. Maybe one day I will die on the battlefield. There is no regret for being careless. But now I have you as my company and will soon become a father. I will no longer be alone. You don't know how happy I am."
Although Su Li had been his wife and mother in the previous three lives, because the husbands who were by her side were different, and she felt Yin Hong's excitement, Su Li was also as happy as her first anniversary.
It is not easy for a woman to get pregnant. She has never met someone she really likes. Su Li doesn't want to get pregnant, but Yin Hong is kind to her, so Su Li is willing to be with him until her old children are around her knees.
"Since you are happy, don't mention those who died and injured. In the past, your life was only yours, and now your life is also our mother and mother. Without our permission, you are not allowed to talk nonsense." Su Li said with his strong arm.
Yin Chong rubbed his chin against her head: "Don't worry, with you, even if the King of Hell comes to me personally to seek his life, I will also beat him back."
Excited to speak, Yin Hong kissed Su Li's face and gnawed around like a young boy.
Su Li beat him: "The doctor said that I can take care of my baby calmly, don't do anything randomly."
Yin Chong widened his eyes: "You are not allowed to have sex in the first three months, and you can't even kiss him?"
Su Li: "Otherwise, the child lives in my belly, and you kiss me so hard that my blood is surging. Do you think the child will not feel it?"
Yin Chong didn't understand the relationship very well, but she was a pregnant person. Yin Chong listened to her in this regard, but was worried: "You can't sleep, you can't kiss you, what should I do next?"
Su Li curled her lips: "What should I do when the lord didn't marry me? Isn't it enough to continue doing that next time?"
Yin Hong's heart moved and his eyes fell on Su Li's soft and boneless hands.
Su Li glared at him.
There was a happy event at home, and Yin Chong accompanied Su Li for the whole morning and went to the military camp to do things in the afternoon.
Su Li sent a servant who was staring at the Sheng family and sent the news. Only then did Su Li learn that Sheng Zhongchang had been locked up by Sheng Yuanqing for several days and committed suicide.
If Sheng Zhongchang had not raped Shaoyao, Su Li would probably feel sorry for her. A young rich young man, who had many poor people who could not envy him, actually committed suicide. However, because Sheng Zhongchang had raped Shaoyao, Shaoyao was sent to such a place by Sheng Yuanqing to live a life worse than death. Now that Sheng Zhongchang ended up like this, Su Li just wanted to praise the cause and effect.
When Shaoyao was there, Sheng Yuanqing harmed Shaoyao for Sheng Zhongchang. Now, Sheng Zhongchang would rather die than be a son for Sheng Yuanqing because of the many changes caused by her fake Shaoyao.
In the evening, Yin Chong came back and Su Li told him about this.
Yin Hong had long disliked the Sheng family's father and son. Sheng Zhongchang couldn't think of it himself, and Yin Hong just wanted to applaud.
Su Li pointed at her belly and asked him to stop talking nonsense.
Yin Chong thought that this fetus might be a beautiful and lovely daughter, and it was really inappropriate to hear these rude words, so he closed his mouth with a smile.
Su Li said: "Nominally he is my nephew, and I want to go there to pay my condolences tomorrow."
