Chapter 123: Have you forgotten filial piety after serving in the army for so many years?



Although Liu Kaixu looked quite serious, he was actually a very gentle old man. Moreover, he also loved Song Xinlan very much. Because, as parents, their child was lost, and the two of them could only depend on each other for survival. Earlier, Song Xinlan almost went crazy because of the matter of finding her child.

If it weren't for Liu Kaixu's knowledge of medicine and his care for her, Song Xinlan might have been tortured to death by illness many years ago.

Over the years, Song Xinlan survived because of Liu Kaixu's care.

The two of them can really be described as supporting each other.

Liu Kaixu suppressed his inner anger and listened to Song Xinlan's words. However, he didn't expect that it would be Liu Ruonan who would make the final decision for Zhuang Sheng.

But when Liu Kaixu saw Zhuang Sheng's attitude towards Liu Ruonan, his heart was actually warm.

It was a blessing for Liu Ruonan that his granddaughter could find such a good son-in-law. Liu Kaixu and his wife were relieved. Even after they passed away, Liu Ruonan would have Zhuang Sheng by her side, and she would have no worries.

In the past few days, I have been getting along very harmoniously with Liu Ruonan.

Liu Ruonan originally had a special feeling for Liu Kaixu, a relationship that spanned past and present lives, from master and apprentice to grandfather and grandson. What kind of fate was this? Liu Ruonan cherished this relationship even more, so getting along with Liu Kaixu became more natural.

Song Xinlan was a very elegant woman. It was said that her grandfather had served as a county magistrate in the late Qing Dynasty, and her family was a family of scholars. From Song Xinlan's dress, speech, and demeanor, it was clear that she was a gentle woman with a scholarly air.

However, being separated from her only son during that turbulent era caused her great psychological trauma. This can be seen from the depths of her eyes. Beneath her gentle eyes, there is a hint of melancholy and regret.

Even though he has found his granddaughter now, he still feels regretful for not having seen his son.

Perhaps, even she herself hadn't imagined that this separation would last a lifetime. She would never see her beloved son again. Sometimes, she would rather not have any news at all, because no news was the best news. At least, she could still hold on to the thought that her son was still alive.

However, everything now confirmed one thing: her son had passed away. From then on, she could only miss him in her memories and dreams, and her impression of him remained in that war.

She didn't even have a photo, and could only rely on the little memory left in her mind to draw the image of her son.

Song Xinlan is gentle and kind, and she is very caring towards Liu Ruonan.

She couldn't imagine how her son felt when he learned he had a child. He was so pitiful. He was separated from his parents at such a young age because of a war. He finally got married and had children, but he passed away before he could even see his child.

Sometimes, God is so unfair to someone.

Therefore, Song Xinlan projected all her inner emotions towards her son onto Liu Ruonan, but her way of expression might be different, which always made people feel a sense of alienation.

Liu Ruonan had no impression of Song Xinlan in her previous life. Presumably, Song Xinlan’s death must have been a huge blow to Liu Kaixu!

Therefore, Liu Kaixu in his previous life was so taciturn and not good at speaking.

Liu Ruonan remembered deeply that every time Liu Kaixu obviously cared about you, he always spoke to you in a very harsh tone, sometimes even in an imperative tone.

However, Liu Ruonan has already adapted to the way Liu Kaixu cares about her and feels very warm instead.

However, Song Xinlan is different. She has no memories of her previous life and feels a little alienated in this life.

In fact, Liu Ruonan still wanted to get closer to Song Xinlan, and wanted to treat Song Xinlan as playfully as she treated Liu Kaixu, but she was afraid that Song Xinlan would not like Liu Ruonan's personality.

In short, Song Xinlan gave Liu Ruonan the feeling of a queen who strictly abided by the palace rules in an ancient imperial palace.

Chen Jianmin and Gao Shu returned, and they treated Liu Kaixu and his wife with great respect. Liu Ruonan was pregnant, and she didn't let her interfere in any family affairs. She prepared the meal, set it on the dining table in the north room, and invited the two elders to sit down. Then the family sat down together and started to eat.

But after taking a few bites, he heard a roar from outside:

"Liu Ruonan, you bitch, get out here! Do you hear me? Get out here! I don't believe you're making the decision for Zhuang Sheng? Who the hell do you think you are? Get out here!"

Everyone looked out the doorway and saw Zhuang Qiang standing at the gate of Chen Jianmin's house, hands on hips, looking menacing. Chen Guihua, as usual, was cracking melon seeds, leaning against the doorframe, looking quite relaxed.

Zhuang Sheng was furious. Zhuang Qiang said a few short words, each of which was unclean.

Liu Ruonan stood up and walked to the door.

The weather was beautiful today, the sun was warm, and there wasn't a hint of chill. Liu Ruonan, wearing a gray wool coat with a pure white turtleneck sweater underneath, paused in front of Zhuang Qiang.

Zhuang Sheng followed closely behind Liu Ruonan. The others had no appetite for food anymore and stood at the door of the north room, looking in Liu Ruonan's direction, as if ready to fight Zhuang Qiang at any time.

Liu Ruonan was about to speak when Zhuang Sheng came forward, took Liu Ruonan's hand, looked at Zhuang Qiang expressionlessly and said, "It's not right to curse someone as soon as you enter their house, right?"

Zhuang Qiang was annoyed. Zhuang Sheng looked very cold, the kind of coldness that kept people at a distance.

"How dare you talk like that, little brat? I'm your father! After all these years in the army, have you forgotten filial piety?"

Zhuang Qiang said it as if it was a matter of course, as if nothing that had happened before had happened.

Zhuang Sheng scoffed, a cold smile spreading from the corner of his mouth. He looked at Zhuang Qiang coldly, his voice as cold as ice, as if it came from a distant ice cave, revealing a chill.

"You seem to have forgotten? Last year, you removed me from your household registration, and signed a letter of guarantee severing the father-son relationship. How come it's only been a short time, and you've already forgotten?"

"I told you I wouldn't recognize you, but you refused to give up. My life is so comfortable now, how could I still recognize you as a burden? When it comes to supporting me in my old age, I still have to rely on you, my brother."
