Since it concerned his daughter's reputation, Tong Chengsheng naturally didn't want to make a big deal out of it. He glanced at the people around him who were watching the show, and felt a little regretful. In a moment of impulse, he started arguing with the store owner, and attracted everyone else over.
This matter was over for the time being, but one time after Tong Chengsheng got off work, he returned to the community and was about to walk to the community pavilion. When he was still a few meters away from the pavilion, he heard someone say the word "Tong family" and he immediately slowed down his pace.
"Do you think the Tong family incident is true?"
"You guys know about this too? When did you find out?"
"What's so strange about this? The kidnapping of Tonghua is probably known to everyone in the community by now!"
A smaller voice nearby said vaguely, "Is it true that the girl from the Tong family was bewitched?"
Everyone was silent for a while.
Someone else started saying, "It must be true. Think about it, she was kidnapped for two whole days and was even knocked unconscious."
"I heard that she was kidnapped because she messed with someone she shouldn't have messed with."
"You must have heard it wrong. If you ask me, she might be in that line of work, which is why she messed with the wrong people. Otherwise, how could the Tong family, who are so poor, suddenly have enough money to marry their son off? His mother even boasted that she had to buy a house before marrying off her. With their family's financial situation, where would they get the money to buy a house..."
"That's true."
Hearing this, Tong Chengsheng clenched his fists and wanted to rush out to argue with them, but he was worried that it would be like last time and make things worse, causing more people to speculate about his daughter's affairs.
Suddenly a voice came from behind him: "Lao Tong, why are you here?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of chatting in the pavilion disappeared, and Tong Chengsheng took a step forward and revealed himself.
When the people in the pavilion saw him, they looked embarrassed. Occasionally, some people who didn't know who he was shut up after being reminded by the people next to them.
Tong Chengsheng pretended not to hear anything, greeted the people behind him, and walked home.
Unexpectedly, people around me also asked about fairy tales.
From then on, Tong Chengsheng stayed indoors and drank all day long at home until he was completely drunk. Now he didn't know what to do to shut them up.
He just hoped that his daughter would not come back now, so as not to hear those rumors and feel sad. But he did not expect Zhang Guiying to call Tonghua back. In the last resort, he had to find an excuse to scold his daughter away, so as not to let her come back in the short term.
Tong Chengsheng and Zhang Guiying had a big fight. The fight was extremely intense and finally escalated to the point where things were thrown and bottles were smashed.
The two of them refused to give in to each other. Zhang Guiying couldn't stand this, so she went to the house her son Tong Zhengyuan was renting. Tong Zhengyuan could have lived at home, but he felt that living at home was not free enough, so he rented a house outside.
When Zhang Guiying came to Tong Zhengyuan's residence, Tong Zhengyuan was very surprised and asked what had happened.
Zhang Guiying said angrily, "It's all because of that stinky girl Tonghua. It's because of her that your dad and I had such a big fight."
When Tong Zhengyuan heard that his parents had quarreled because of the fairy tale, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
He has always been caught between his mother and Tonghua. Tong Zhengyuan knows that his mother has never liked Tonghua, but Tonghua is his sister after all. He and Tonghua have been together for so many years, and Tonghua has been very good to him. He really doesn't know what to do now.
When she saw her son standing there in a daze and not responding to her, she knew that her son was leaning towards fairy tales. Immediately, she became even more angry and covered her chest, as if she couldn't breathe.
She groaned, "Ouch, my chest hurts!"
Seeing that his mother was not feeling well, Tong Zhengyuan immediately panicked and quickly helped his mother to sit down.
Zhang Guiying gasped for breath and said to Tong Zhengyuan in a weak voice, "Raising a son is not easy. I have carefully raised you for so many years, but you sided with Tonghua for a little favor. Your father did the same. He quarreled with me over Tonghua and even threw things at me. You and your son have been drugged by that girl. Even my own son, who I raised, is helping outsiders but not me..."
Tong Zhengyuan was completely at a loss after hearing the tearful complaint. He quickly comforted her, "Mom, I'm not against you. I didn't say anything."
Zhang Guiying glared at him in frustration: "I'm your mother, don't I know what you're thinking? You're actually hesitating between your mother and Tonghua, an outsider. I think if you marry a daughter-in-law in the future, you'll probably care even less about me as your mother..."
When talking about his daughter-in-law, Tong Zhengyuan immediately thought of Zhang Xinyue. He wondered how she was doing now. Was she awake?
Seeing her son's absent-minded look, Zhang Guiying immediately knew that Tong Zhengyuan must be thinking about Zhang Xinyue at this time.
She patted the back of her son's hand and said with a warning look in her eyes, "I'm telling you, our family has no ties with the Zhang family anymore. You are not allowed to secretly visit that woman behind Mom's back, okay?!"
Tong Zhengyuan looked hesitant: "Why don't you let me go see Xinyue? Maybe she has regained consciousness in the past few days."
In the past few days, he has been struggling with whether or not to go to the hospital to see Xinyue. But then he remembered that he went to the hospital to visit Xinyue before and was seen by Zhang's parents. They scolded him in the hospital, and he really didn't want to experience that scene again.
