The next morning, the sun was already high in the sky, but Zheng Xinwei's door was closed tightly, without any sound. This was not Zheng Xinwei's character. He had always been the most diligent one in the family and rarely slept in.
"Dinner is ready." Zheng Xinyi put the big pancake in the pot on a plate and brought it over, calling out.
After the words fell, Yingzi quickly pushed Zheng Shaodong and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Hurry up and eat, otherwise there will be nothing to eat soon."
Adam Cheng thought that after a night together, the mother and son should be able to talk it out. After all, Adam Cheng is Li Fen's biological daughter. As the saying goes, there is no overnight hatred between mother and son.
But Zheng Shaochun was wrong. After sleeping on the same kang all night, the relationship between the mother and daughter not only did not improve, but the conflict became more intense. Early in the morning, both of them had cold faces, as if neither of them wanted to see the other.
The atmosphere at the dinner table grew tense. Zheng Shaochun, the eldest son of the Zheng family, was about to say something when Cuihua stopped him in time: "Go check on Xinwei and Xinming. Why haven't they gotten up yet?"
Zheng Shaochun held his pipe in his mouth and knocked on the door, but there was no response. After thinking about it, he realized that they were all grown men and there was nothing to be embarrassed about, so he pushed the door open and walked in. He was shocked to see the sleeping arrangement of the two with one head down and the other up.
He walked over and patted Zheng Xinwei who was still sleeping soundly: "Don't sleep anymore, get up and eat."
Zheng Xinming, awakened by Zheng Shaochun's call, felt his head buzzing and sat up with a gloomy face.
Zheng Xinwei sat up suddenly, yawning and asking, "What time is it?"
Zheng Shaochun glanced at Zheng Xinming, who looked a little strange, and asked softly, "Xinming, why did you sleep with your head down?"
Zheng Xinming didn't say a word. He just picked up his cotton jacket, stood up and left, completely ignoring Zheng Xinwei who was standing there in a daze with a guilty look on his face.
It didn't matter that he left, Zheng Shaochun immediately became angry and chased after him: "Zheng Xinming, what's your attitude?"
Cuihua trotted over immediately after hearing the angry shout. Yingzi quickly took Zheng Xinming, who had a gloomy face, in her arms and asked softly, "Son, what's wrong?"
Zheng Shaochun pointed at him while holding his pipe: "This kid has no manners at all. Look at his attitude. He has no respect for his elders at all."
"Xinming, apologize to me." Zheng Shaodong said in a sharp tone.
Zheng Xinming suddenly raised his eyes with a stubborn look on his face. Cuihua nudged Zheng Shaochun with her elbow, signaling him to forget it and say less.
Zheng Shaodong casually picked up the bench under the dining table and held it high towards Zheng Xinming: "Hurry up and apologize to your uncle."
Yingzi held him tighter and yelled at the top of her lungs, "Zheng Shaodong, if you have the guts, beat us both to death."
Zheng Shaochun saw that his second brother was serious and was furious. He couldn't bear to watch him beat them. He quickly reached out to grab the stool from his hand, but Zheng Shaodong refused to let go. With a little force, he pushed Zheng Shaochun to the ground and then chased Yingzi and her son around the yard.
"Dad, are you okay?" Zheng Xinwei ran out of the house and quickly helped him up.
"My waist, my waist." Adam Cheng covered his waist and grimaced, as if it was in pain.
Zheng Xinyi, sitting at the dinner table, was extremely helpless. As the wedding date was getting closer, more and more troubles occurred at home, and she didn't even have a chance to speak.
