Chapter 575 Reason and Deception
Although Meng Dezhi was fully prepared when facing Meng Fanjin, he didn't know how to start the conversation for a moment.
After all, it was he who introduced Cheng Xuyuan to Fang Yuqing.
Although it was Fang Yuqing's own decision for the two of them to be together, he couldn't shirk his responsibility by saying that he had played no role in the matter.
So at this moment, he felt guilty towards his sister.
So Meng Dezhi coughed and looked at his wife.
His meaning was very clear at this point, he just wanted his wife to speak.
Mo Yunqi noticed Meng Dezhi's strangeness, and she knew very well what Meng Dezhi meant.
Although she was a little embarrassed about this matter, since her husband had already given the signal, she had no other choice.
After coughing lightly, Mo Yunqi said, "Fanjin, what Lao Meng and I want to talk to you about today is Cheng Xuyuan's matter."
"What happened to Cheng Xuyuan?" Meng Fanjin asked in surprise: "Is there something wrong with him?"
When Meng Dezhi saw Meng Fanjin's reaction, he knew that his sister was thinking about other things.
He quickly said, "Cheng Xuyuan has no other problems. He just had an accident with Shen Yumo."
The accident with Shen Yumo not only did not make Meng Fanjin relax, but made her even more nervous.
Meng Fanjin naturally knew who Shen Yumo was.
She only felt relieved when she learned that Shen Yumo and Cheng Xuyuan were divorced.
After all, when two people talked about divorce in the past, it was just an agreement.
Now we are officially divorced.
"Aren't they divorced yet?" Meng Fanjin asked with a hint of uncertainty.
"No, they're already divorced." Mo Yunqi said, "Yes... they had a child after the divorce."
After saying this, Mo Yunqi felt relieved.
But her eyes were fixed on Meng Fanjin, fearing that something might happen to her sister-in-law.
If that's the case, it would be a bit troublesome.
Meng Fanjin was stunned for a moment, then said to Meng Dezhi: "Brother, what you mean is that Cheng Xuyuan and Shen Yumo already had a child before they divorced."
"Didn't they agree on a fake marriage? How come they have a child?"
To be honest, how could Meng Fanjin bear to let her daughter become someone's stepmother, even if that person was Cheng Xuyuan.
For a moment, her heart was filled with resentment towards Cheng Xuyuan.
This guy is really good at pretending. Even though he has a child, he pretends to divorce Shen Yumo in his own home.
hateful!
It's really abominable! Meng Fanjin felt cheated at this moment.
Seeing his sister's angry look, Meng Dezhi said, "Before he and Shen Yumo divorced, they didn't have any children."
"This child was born after the divorce."
When Meng Fanjin heard the result, he suddenly didn't know what to say.
You two didn't have children before the divorce, you had them after the divorce.
Are you kidding?
Are there people like you?
She took a breath and looked towards her brother with suspicion in her eyes.
If this wasn't her own brother, she would have thought there was something wrong with the logic of his words.
How come...
Meng Dezhi lowered his head, somewhat reluctant to speak.
Mo Yunqi said helplessly: "This is what happened. In fact, we also knew this news some time ago."
"The reason why your brother didn't tell you right away was because he wanted to check with Cheng Xuyuan."
Hearing what Mo Yunqi said, Meng Fanjin said, "So, this news has been verified."
Mo Yunqi nodded and said, "According to Cheng Xuyuan and the information we got, the reason why he and Shen Yumo are in this situation is..."
In one breath, Mo Yunqi told the story between Cheng Xuyuan and Shen Yumo.
Meng Fanjin didn't expect that the problem actually occurred when Cheng Xuyuan went out to collect folk songs.
Thinking about what he knew, Meng Fanjin felt angry but also vaguely hesitant in his heart.
What should I do? Should I just break up with Cheng Xuyuan? Wouldn't this method make Fang Yuqing's relationship, which she had been in for so long, go down the drain?
Moreover, it would probably not be easy to find a partner like Cheng Xuyuan who is capable, good-looking, and whose partner Yuqing is also very good.
After all, there are too few young people with the ability and level of Cheng Xuyuan.
But it keeps going, isn't it too easy for Cheng Xuyuan?
For a moment, her heart was filled with confusion.
Looking at Meng Fanjin who didn't say a word, Mo Yunqi could understand her thoughts.
After all, it's hard to find a good son-in-law! Cheng Xuyuan's mistake doesn't seem to be a problem for others.
However, she didn't have any better solution for this matter, so she could only watch Meng Fanjin quietly.
"Fanjin, what are you going to do about this matter?" Meng Dezhi couldn't stand the silence at the moment and asked his sister.
Meng Fanjin glanced at his brother and said nothing.
Before Meng Dezhi could speak, Mo Yunqi said, "Old Meng, ask Fanjin to think about it."
"Is this something that can be decided all at once?"
After hearing what his wife said, Meng Dezhi swallowed what he was about to say.
Meng Fanjin pondered for a while before he said in a deep voice, "Does Yuqing know about this?"
"We haven't told Yuqing yet." Meng Dezhi said, "After all, this is a big deal, and our adults need to discuss it first."
Meng Fanjin continued: "What is Cheng Xuyuan's attitude?"
"Cheng Xuyuan's attitude is that he has to take responsibility for the child, but he and Shen Yumo have already discussed that the two will not remarry."
When Meng Dezhi talked about Cheng Xuyuan's attitude, his expression couldn't help but turn a little cold.
Meng Fanjin nodded and said, "Well, this is what matters to Yuqing's whole life. She should know about this."
"If she wants to break up with Cheng Xuyuan, we, as family members, will definitely support her."
"If she wants to..."
Meng Fanjin did not say what came next, but Meng Dezhi and his wife both understood the meaning of her words.
Although Meng Dezhi always felt a little uncomfortable with this decision, he finally kept silent.
But Mo Yunqi felt that Meng Fanjin's choice was right.
Just when the three of them were silently thinking about how to talk to Fang Yuqing, they saw Fang Yuqing walking down from the room upstairs.
Fang Yuqing, who looked a little indifferent, gently greeted Meng Dezhi and said, "Uncle."
Then he turned to Mo Yunqi and said, "Aunt."
Looking at her niece with a sad face and red eyes, Mo Yunqi couldn't help but come to Fang Yuqing's side and hug her and said, "Yuqing, it's okay."
Fang Yuqing forced a smile and said, "Aunt, I know it's okay."
At this point, she smiled and said, "I bought you a set of clothes when I went to Paris this time. You will look great in them."
Mo Yunqi didn't know what to say for a moment.
Meng Dezhi looked at Fang Yuqing, sighed deeply, and finally stopped talking.
"My uncle has one too." Fang Yuqing said this and then turned to Meng Fanjin and said, "Mom, I want to talk to my uncle about something."
"Okay, go ahead." Meng Fanjin understood that what Fang Yuqing was talking about should be related to Cheng Xuyuan.
She sighed, and finally said to Mo Yunqi: "Sister-in-law, let's go to the kitchen. I have prepared a lot of dishes."
Mo Yunqi naturally would not make things difficult for Meng Fanjin, so she went to the kitchen with Meng Fanjin.
In the kitchen, neither of them had any intention of cooking. They just tilted their ears and listened in the direction of the living room.
After Fang Yuqing waited for her mother and Mo Yunqi to leave, she hesitated for a moment and said to Meng Dezhi, "Uncle, I knew about Cheng Xuyuan and Shen Yumo's affairs before."
Meng Dezhi originally wanted to comfort his niece, but he didn't expect her to say this.
For a moment, he didn't know what to say.
Cheng Xuyuan clearly told himself that Fang Yuqing didn't know yet, this is...
Cheng Xuyuan lied to himself?
Meng Dezhi believed that at this time, Cheng Xuyuan would never dare to lie to him.
And if Cheng Xuyuan wasn't lying to me, then this matter...
As thoughts flashed through his mind, a trace of pity arose in Meng Dezhi's heart.
Looking at his niece's appearance, Meng Dezhi hesitated for a moment and then said, "What are you going to do?"
At this point, Meng Dezhi glanced at Fang Yuqing, whose face was a little pale, and said encouragingly: "Yuqing, don't worry, I have already talked to your mother."
"Regarding this matter, no matter what choice you make, we support you."
"You can feel free to say whatever you think."
Fang Yuqing smiled at Meng Dezhi, and then said solemnly: "Uncle, then I will tell you."
Meng Dezhi nodded without saying anything.
Fang Yuqing said calmly, "Uncle, when I found out about this, I was very angry."
"To be honest, I also thought about breaking up with Cheng Xuyuan at that time."
When Meng Dezhi heard this, he felt uneasy.
After all, as soon as Fang Yuqing said this, he had a feeling that his niece seemed to let the matter go.
He couldn't accept letting go of this matter.
But when it came to asking him to take any measures, he felt that he didn't seem to have any very useful ideas, after all, Cheng Xuyuan was now fully grown.
The Goncourt literature and other achievements have made Cheng Xuyuan extremely dazzling, so many things are no longer something he can decide.
"But I remember when I was a child, you told me a story, saying that everyone makes mistakes, but it is the greatest virtue to be able to correct them."
"Cheng Xuyuan's incident this time... it wasn't really a mistake."
"After all, at that time...they were still husband and wife."
"When they found out they had a child, they were already divorced, and it was Shen Yumo who decided to keep the child."
"They had already made an agreement about this child."
Listening to Fang Yuqing's words, Meng Dezhi felt a bit awkward. He could sense Fang Yuqing's protective heart towards Cheng Xuyuan.
Although the reason seemed a little funny at first, after careful analysis, he suddenly found that it seemed to make sense.
What happened between Cheng Xuyuan and Shen Yumo happened before their marriage was dissolved.
In other words, no one can find fault with this! After the two divorced, Shen Yumo found out that she had a child but did not tell Cheng Xuyuan, but decided to give birth to the child.
Cheng Xuyuan's attitude towards this matter can be said to be impeccable.
Not only did he buy Shen Yumo a big house, but he also used his own skills to help Shen Yumo become a famous children's writer...
These practices not only ensured that Shen Yumo would not have to worry about food and clothing, but also made all the arrangements for raising children.
This situation between the two of them probably wouldn't have been spread if Shen Yumo wasn't so famous.
After a moment of silence, Meng Dezhi asked, "Do you mean that you should continue?"
Fang Yuqing didn't say anything, but at this moment, keeping silent was actually a kind of response.
For a moment, Meng Dezhi really couldn't accept this response.
He looked at Fang Yuqing and wanted to say something, but for a moment, he didn't know what to say.
Scold Fang Yuqing? It seemed that he shouldn't do that. After all, he hadn't made up his mind what to do at this moment. To be honest, he was a little reluctant to break up with Cheng Xuyuan because of this matter.
But he felt a little unwilling to let Cheng Xuyuan go like this.
Just when he was struggling, Fang Yuqing suddenly said, "Uncle, I think... I think I should choose the path that I want most in my heart."
These words were spoken lightly, but when Meng Dezhi heard them, his heart trembled.
At this moment, he felt that his own reluctance and unwillingness were really unimportant.
The most important thing now is Fang Yuqing’s attitude and her feelings.
After sighing, he said in a deep voice: "How are you going to tell Cheng Xuyuan?"
"Although the child was an accident, he is the most innocent."
Fang Yuqing smiled and said, "I think Cheng Xuyuan's way of handling this is quite good."
“I think he should be supported in doing so.”
Meng Dezhi slapped the table and said, "We should catch Cheng Xuyuan and have a good talk with him about this matter."
"Humph, this is really a bargain for him."
Fang Yuqing smiled and said, "Uncle, I'm sorry to trouble you with this matter."
As she spoke, she walked upstairs.
Looking at Fang Yuqing leaving, Meng Dezhi shook his head and sighed.
He looked at the phone next to him, hesitated for a moment to make a call, but finally put it down.
After Fang Yuqing went upstairs, Mo Yunqi and Meng Fanjin came out.
"Brother, what did Yuqing say?" Meng Fanjin asked first.
Although they pricked up their ears to listen, they could not hear complete words, so they asked Meng Dezhi anxiously.
Meng Dezhi sighed and said, "Yuqing said that she made a choice according to her heart and she still wants to continue to be with Cheng Xuyuan."
Meng Fanjin's face changed.
Her face showed anger, relief, and emotion...
As a mother at this moment, her feelings were extremely complicated.
She didn't say anything, and Mo Yunqi, who was standing aside, said with a hint of emotion: "Yuqing, you have grown up."
After hearing these words, the expressions on both Meng Dezhi and Meng Fanjin's faces became more complicated. They looked at each other and didn't say a word.
"Fanjin, what are you going to say about this matter when Gengsheng arrives?" Meng Dezhi changed the subject.
Meng Fanjin glanced at his brother, then said in a deep voice: "Brother, let me talk to Gengsheng about this matter. Don't worry, I can handle it."
Since his sister said so, Meng Dezhi stopped pursuing her.
He hesitated for a moment and said, "If that's the case, then let's do it this way!"
Seeing that the matter was almost resolved, Mo Yunqi said to Meng Dezhi and Meng Fanjin, "Shen Yumo's mother came to see me, how should I respond to them?"
Meng Fanjin frowned, and just as she was about to speak, Meng Dezhi waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about this matter."
"Now that we know the opinions of the children, let Shen Yunliang and I talk about it."
"Hey, some things should be said openly."
Meng Fanjin did not object to her brother taking on this matter on his own initiative.
She knew that her brother was reliable, so she said to Meng Dezhi, "Brother, I'll trouble you with this matter."
Meng Dezhi said calmly: "Yuqing's affairs are my affairs."
"We are a family, so there is no need to be so polite."
Cheng Xuyuan had just cleaned the house, and before he sat down to have a cup of tea, the phone rang.
Cheng Xuyuan felt a little nervous and expectant about this call.
After hesitating for a moment, Cheng Xuyuan picked up the phone.
The voice coming from the other end of the phone was neither Fang Yuqing's nor Meng Dezhi's, but Shen Yumo's.
This surprised Cheng Xuyuan a little.
"Yu Mo, you know I'm back." After saying this, Cheng Xuyuan felt ridiculous.
After all, the news on the radio now is all about my own news.
Shen Yumo said softly: "I heard you were back from the radio."
Having said that, Shen Yumo immediately asked: "Are you okay now?"
Hearing this question, Cheng Xuyuan instinctively wanted to say "I'm not good". But after hesitating for a while, he still said: "I just returned home, and I'm doing fine now."
"What's wrong?"
Shen Yumo said anxiously: "I heard from my brother yesterday that my mother has gone to find Fang Yuqing's aunt."
"And she also told Fang Yuqing's aunt about our situation."
"I've called my mom and told her that I have no intention of getting back together with you in this lifetime."
'So tell him to stop worrying about it.'
At this point, Shen Yumo said, "If you have anything to explain to Fang Yuqing, please give Fang Yuqing my phone number and I will explain it to her."
"We two are just friends now."
Listening to Shen Yumo's words, Cheng Xuyuan felt mixed emotions.
He smiled and said, "Yu Mo, this matter has nothing to do with you. I can handle it myself."
"Just take care of the child."
"By the way, I haven't seen my son these days. How is he?"
Hearing Cheng Xuyuan say this, Shen Yumo suddenly realized that the matter between her and Cheng Xuyuan could no longer be hidden. She hesitated for a moment and said, "My son is fine."
"You really don't need my help?"
