Chapter 135
"No, mother didn't say a word."
Xue Shun shook his head.
Shen Jiao looked at Liangua and the others and said, "Madam, you always keep silent when discussing matters in the past, don't you?"
"How would we know that?" Liangua thought for a moment and then said, "Madam hasn't liked going out in recent years, nor has she liked taking charge of affairs. She always stays in her own courtyard, so perhaps she doesn't participate in meetings much."
No matter how much you don't love someone, it has come to this. To put it in a bigger picture, this is a matter of life and death. You have to say a few words, right?
Not saying a word, isn't this too weird?
Xue Shun also felt it was strange. In his impression, his mother was not a talkative person, but she always cared about children like them. Today, several of his brothers were beaten, but she didn't say a word. It was indeed strange.
"Perhaps it was because the situation was so tense and her father was so angry, and she didn't want to add fuel to the fire."
Xue Shun didn't think Luo Wendi would abandon them.
But Luo Wendi did have this plan.
She thought, maybe she was a selfish mother after all, so she had to choose to protect her children regardless of good or bad.
Even if the child doesn't appreciate it.
Xue Lang knelt in front of her like an idiot, stunned for a long time, and then his dull expression turned into disbelief and suspicion. After confirming that she was not joking, he was left with only rage. Even though he did not show this rage on his face, but suppressed it deep in his heart, his expression was still distorted for a moment.
"Mother, it wasn't my son who instigated Eleven to go there!"
Xue Lang defended himself weakly.
Luo Wendi said, "I know you didn't do it this time. You're still clear-headed. It shows that you still know the difference between the important and the bad. You can still be saved. So come with me. The carriage is ready. We'll take the water route when we get to the dock. Linhai County is not far away, it's on Hezhongdao. My family has businesses there that need someone to take care of them. If you want to go out and explore the world, you can take a boat out to sea. There are plenty of opportunities over there in the Great Wilderness Mountains. Perhaps you can make a name for yourself like your father did. Then I won't have anything to worry about."
Luo Wendi hadn't spoken so much to Xue Lang for a long time.
But these words are so harsh to the ears.
What is she worried about?
Xue Lang felt that she had bad intentions!
"What mother means is... that we should just leave this place alone and let father take this family business and throw it all into the mouths of dogs, piece by piece, like a piece of cake?"
Luo Wendi frowned and said, "Don't say such harsh words. Your father will make the decision on this matter. We are all discussing it now. There will always be a way. It's not your turn to worry about these things. You went too far in front of others today. You should just talk about the matter. Why talk about those useless things? Do you think your father is afraid of you? Your wings haven't even grown hard yet, but you dare to flutter at him. I am really loving you by not breaking your arms. Don't be ungrateful."
Among those who were beaten today, Xue Lang was still not among them.
He was originally feeling somewhat smug, but now he thought of another possibility.
"Has mother told father about this matter? Did he agree?"
"He's your biological father, not an irrelevant person. I naturally told him."
However, if it weren't for what happened today, Xue Wuliang still wouldn't agree.
Luo Wendi didn't say this.
But it was enough to chill Xue Lang's heart. It felt like a huge hole had been broken in his heart, with a cold wind rushing in. It was a draught, not to mention how cold it was...
He has been a son for decades and considers himself a well-behaved and filial son, but how do these people treat him?
He was not given what he deserved.
They are eager to give things that they shouldn't give, and even pretend to say it's for your own good.
Should he thank you?
Xue Lang made a final effort: "Mother wants to take her son away, and I should follow and serve by her side. But... can we leave later, after this matter is settled? Otherwise, if something unexpected happens at home, we will be too far away to help. If anything happens, I'm afraid it will be too late to regret it."
Luo Wendi remained unmoved and reluctantly praised him, "You are a filial person, but you have sixteen brothers. If something really happens, they are there too. These people are useless. Even with you, I can't change anything. Don't worry about that. I only ask if you are willing to come with me."
Xue Lang gritted his teeth and said with determination, "Mother, please forgive me. I don't want to!"
He hit his head on the ground, and when he raised it again, it was covered in blood.
Luo Wendi didn't care about him because she saw Xue Lang's eyes.
It was filled with anger, resistance, and even some hatred. It was not like looking at a mother, but more like looking at an enemy.
In Luo Wendi's memory, only ferocious beasts that were difficult to tame would look at people like that. When she was young, her methods of dealing with ferocious beasts were simple. There were only two methods: beating and starving. Her parents said that one method would make it feel fear, and the other would make it understand who the master was. If neither of these two methods worked, then she would have to kill it and eat its meat.
So she ate a lot of meat, and when she felt like vomiting at the sight of ferocious beasts, she finally tamed a three-eyed snake. She still remembered that she was very happy that day, drank a lot of wine, and sang until three o'clock in the morning. When she opened her eyes at night, the snake had already swam to the side of her bed and was trying to eat her.
It had a mouth full of fangs and stood upright, looking at her.
She didn't react to what it was trying to do at the time and even called its name, but it still bit her.
After that day, she wondered if her method was wrong. If someone beat her or starved her, she would not surrender willingly.
So she decided to start over. This time she found a little animal that had lost its mother. The little animal was abandoned because it was weak before its eyes even opened. She raised it tirelessly and did not ask anyone for help with its food, clothing, shelter and transportation.
She also spent a happy time with it until she took a bite of the ferocious beast's favorite mutton.
She understood then that if you can't tame a child, you can't tame him.
The best way to control a ferocious beast is to scare it so much that it will never dare to attack you.
As long as it shows its teeth, you should beat it to death!
But my son...is not a ferocious beast.
Luo Wendi didn't need Xue Lang to be afraid of her, because this was her own flesh and blood. What she needed was for him to respect her, admire her, and understand her from the bottom of his heart. At the very least, he should believe that she would not harm him.
If he can't do all this...
Luo Wendi's hands and feet felt a little cold, she thought:
If he can't do all these... then I don't care about him.
"Tie up the Sixth Young Master. Since he doesn't want to go to Linhai County, let's go to Beiting. I hope the cold snow and strong wind there will clear your mind."
Xue Lang was completely shocked. He resisted, he resisted desperately, but what mother would allow her male lover to use aphrodisiac on her son?
As he was carried out in a daze, the last words he heard were: "Go and bring Seventeen here! He doesn't want to go with me, but there are plenty who do! I don't need this little bastard anymore."
Luo Wendi shouted with full energy...
