When Li Yaozong heard Gu Qingcheng mention that he was beaten with a stick, that horrible scene instantly appeared in his mind.
His small body, which was not too fat, could not help but tremble.
Yeah, how could he forget about this?
My mother was pressed on a bench by the maid in the house, and my father was shouting ferociously, "Beat this bitch to death," while he himself huddled in the corner, trembling.
Peng!
Pumbaa!!
The wooden stick fell on my mother's thin body, making a dull sound.
At first, the mother could still beg for mercy and curse, but then she simply couldn't make a sound.
She was covered in blood, and her whole body collapsed on the ground as if all her bones had been pulled out.
My mother almost died!
But even if he didn't die, he was seriously injured, and his face was bruised and bloody.
The punishment was not enough, the father also drove them out.
He didn't care that his mother was seriously injured and he was just a frightened child.
...These memories rushed into Li Yaozong's brain like a tide.
Li Yaozong's face turned pale, and his small body trembled even more violently.
"Yaozong, mother does have evil intentions. She wants to frame the Han family and seize the Li family's assets."
Gu Qingcheng didn't shy away from the original owner's vicious scheme. She looked directly into Li Yaozong's eyes and said slowly, "It's just that 'your mother' wasn't smart enough, and she was outmaneuvered by the Han family."
Li Yaozong stared at Gu Qingcheng blankly, not understanding why his mother could be so calm even though she had made a mistake.
"She schemed against someone, but was retaliated against. The Han family was unscathed, while your mother became a wicked woman who 'stole' someone else."
Gu Qingcheng didn't rush to explain to Li Yaozong, but continued: "Even you, your background has been questioned and you have been labeled a 'bastard'."
Li Yaozong pursed his lips.
The word "bastard" hurt his heart.
It also awakened some complaints deep in his heart - why did his mother make such a fuss? Not only was he punished, but his bloodline was also questioned.
"Yaozong, let me ask you, are you a bastard? Although your mother, Gu, had evil intentions, has she ever had an affair?"
Gu Qingcheng asked questions one after another.
Li Yaozong thought about it carefully and slowly shook his head.
Although he is young, he grew up in a wealthy family after all.
The Li family prided themselves on being a wealthy family in the county, and the eldest master, Li Jiye, also imitated the ways of the "rich families" and cobbled together some rules.
Female students are not allowed to show their faces in public.
Even if you can't absolutely "stay in the front door and don't go out the back door", you should at least stay at home if you can.
Therefore, even if my own mother wanted to have an affair, she would not have the chance.
And Li Yaozong.
Although he looks more like his mother, he has the thick eyebrows unique to the Li family.
When he stood with Li Jiye, outsiders could tell at a glance that they were related by blood.
"Yaozong, let me ask you again, when your father punished me and kicked us out, did he really think I had an affair and that you were a bastard?"
Gu Qingcheng progressed step by step.
Gu Qingcheng did not hide or whitewash the wrong things the original owner had done.
She just wanted to tell Li Yaozong the truest facts.
She wanted to let Li Yaozong know a few things——
First, don’t be stupid easily. Don’t frame others unless you are absolutely sure.
Second, if you do something wrong, you will be punished.
Third, the past is past. Don’t feel ashamed or upset about it, and don’t feel inferior because of the mistakes you have made.
fourth……
Huoshui: ...It sounds like there is nothing wrong with it, but it just feels weird.
It suddenly had a bad premonition. Gu Qingcheng would not turn such a simple and innocent little fat boy into a little villain, would she?
Li Yaozong followed Gu Qingcheng's pace and thought seriously.
He thought carefully about the question raised by Gu Qingcheng, then slowly shook his head.
Li Yaozong's voice was a little dry, but he still said firmly, "My father, my father must be just taking his anger out on others."
The wife was caught cheating in public, which was clearly a not-so-clever "trap".
Li Jiye took the opportunity to attack.
First of all, his wife's "cheating" really made him feel ashamed and angry.
Secondly, he should have guessed that Gu was plotting against Han Qiuyu.
Han Qiuyu is Li Yaozu's wife. Whether Li Yaozu admits it or not, in the eyes of Li Jiye and everyone else, they are husband and wife, a community of shared interests.
The ultimate purpose of Gu's framing of Han Qiuyu should be to target Li Yaozu and then plot against the entire Li family.
How can I tolerate this?
Li Jiye is the head of a feudal family. The entire Li family, including his wife and children, are his property.
But now, his usually docile wife is so ambitious that she tries to seize the Li family's assets. This is a provocation to Li Jiye, the head of the family!
In order to re-establish his prestige, Li Jiye killed Gu with a stick and even drove his own son out of the house.
"My father—"
Li Yaozong has complicated feelings towards his father Li Jiye, who once doted on him very much.
"He, he values Big Brother more!"
When he was still in the Li family, Li Yaozong was young and was a spoiled child, so he had an extremely simple personality.
He naively thought that he was his father's "beloved son".
However, the fact that his mother was beaten and the mother and son were expelled completely woke Li Yaozong up.
With his mother's guidance and instruction over the past year, Li Yaozong has become more and more precocious.
Now with Gu Qingcheng's step-by-step guidance, Li Yaozong finally saw a certain truth -
