Chapter 1118 What if the disabled boss can’t get better? (13)
"I, I didn't mean it... Xiaoyong was making a fuss and I couldn't help myself..." Wu Qingxuan explained to Jiang Rushong in a panic.
Jiang Rushong's face was already very ugly. With hidden anger, he looked at Wu Qingxuan with cold eyes, holding back his anger, and said, "He's still a child!"
"I really didn't mean it." Wu Qingxuan kept shaking her head to explain. Seeing Jiang Rushong's cold eyes, she became even more anxious and nervous. She said incoherently, "I, I told him to hit him back! Xiaoyong, you hit him back. Mom was wrong. She shouldn't have hit you..."
She put her face in front of Jiang Yong and asked him to hit her, but Jiang Yong just stared at her resentfully and did not do anything.
Jiang Rushong looked at her, and finally closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths. After a while, his expression softened, and he said to Wu Qingxuan in a hoarse voice, "You're right, he was too noisy, and it's normal that you couldn't help but hit him."
Then he said to Jiang Yong in a cold voice: "Jiang Yong, apologize to your mother. You shouldn't have made a fuss and refused to go to school. Otherwise, your mother wouldn't have beaten you."
"I don't! She is not my mother, she is a vicious stepmother, and you are not my father, you are the stepfather! I hate you..." Jiang Yong yelled after saying this, then turned around and ran out quickly, completely ignoring the shouts of Wu Qingxuan and Jiang Rushong chasing him from behind.
Jiang Rushong was sitting in a wheelchair, unable to move around easily. He was sweating with anxiety. Wu Qingxuan said quickly, "I'll go find him. Rushong, don't worry. Wait at home!"
After saying that, he chased out, while Jiang Rushong stayed in his yard, looking at the gate with a grim expression. After a while, Jiang Yi slowly moved to his side.
Jiang Rusong looked at his youngest son, reached out his hand and touched his head, and asked him: "Xiaoyi, what do you think of this new mother towards you and your brother?"
As soon as this topic was brought up, Jiang Yi immediately had a lot to say. He said indignantly: "No! We are always fed vegetables and tofu. I want to eat meat..."
Jiang Rushong thought he would hear his son talk about how Wu Qingxuan would abuse them behind their backs, but he didn't expect it to be these. He suddenly looked embarrassed and had to explain: "Xiaoyi, our family is poor now and can't afford meat. It's good to have vegetables and tofu to eat. At least we won't go hungry. When Dad was young, he didn't even have vegetables and tofu to eat. He was hungry all day..."
"Then why does Uncle Ye's family next door always have meat to eat? I can smell it!" Jiang Yi retorted unconvinced.
Jiang Rushong was choked, with a complicated expression on his face. He said, "Their family is different from ours. Both they and their husband can earn money, and they only need to raise one child. But our family can only rely on Dad's previous savings and you... Mom's occasional odd jobs to earn a little money, and we have to raise two children, so naturally we can't compare to our neighbors."
Jiang Yi was still young and didn't understand much. He said naively, "Then Dad, you should go to work and earn money too."
Jiang Rusong smiled bitterly, looked at his legs, and said, "Xiaoyi, Dad's legs haven't been cured. I can't go to work, so I can't make money."
Jiang Yi sighed and suddenly said, "Oh, I wish I were Uncle Ye's son."
When Jiang Rushong heard his words, he was struck by lightning, his head was buzzing, and he was furious. He stared at his youngest son in disbelief and asked through gritted teeth, "What did you say?"
Jiang Yi was frightened by the fierce expression on his face and burst into tears immediately. He quickly stepped back a few steps to avoid him, but Jiang Rushong grabbed his arm and continued to question him: "What did you just say?"
Jiang Yi didn't know that his words had touched his father's lungs. The enemy his father wanted to get rid of the most in his life was Ye Jin, but now Ye Jin's life was prosperous, but his biological son regretted that he was not Ye Jin's son. How could Jiang Rusong bear this? His son wanted to be Ye Jin's son, not his son! This was such an insult to a father, so his reason collapsed at this moment.
"Dad, I didn't say anything... Dad, I'm scared, please don't hit me..." Jiang Yi cried with tears and snot running together.
Jiang Rushong's eyes were wide open, and he was so angry that his nostrils were breathing heavily. He looked very scary. He held his youngest son and listened to him crying for several minutes. Finally, he let go of his hand dejectedly. He really didn't live as well as Ye Jin. What was wrong with his youngest son's ignorance and yearning for a better life? It was just that he was useless as a father and couldn't make his life better. What right did he have to vent his anger on his youngest son?
Jiang Rushong, who had figured this out, slumped down his head and said to Jiang Yi with an apologetic look on his face: "I'm sorry, Xiaoyi, it's Dad's fault. Dad shouldn't have treated you like that just now."
Jiang Yi wiped his tears, glanced at him, and then ran out of the yard. Jiang Rusong hurriedly called him: "Xiaoyi, don't run around, it's dangerous outside!"
But Jiang Yi didn't listen to him at all, so he had to push his wheelchair out with difficulty to chase the children. Now, both sons got angry and ran out, and the couple chased one each.
Xiang Shichu was playing with Xiang Nan in the living room. He had guessed most of the facts about what happened in the Jiang family that morning based on what they said. It seemed that not only was it difficult to be a stepmother, but it was not easy to be a biological father either.
Fortunately, the person in front of me is my own brother, and I can beat him if he doesn’t listen.
Xiang Nan, who was playing with a toy car at the side, felt a chill on his back. He turned around and looked back, but didn't find anything. He scratched his head and went back to playing. But he didn't know that his sister was thinking that if he was as naughty and difficult to teach as the Jiang brothers, she would have to be strict with him.
While Xiang Nan was playing, Xiang Shichu was embroidering a piece of embroidery that she was going to send to embroidery master Ruan Xi.
After more than half an hour, she heard someone coming back from next door. It turned out that Wu Qingxuan finally found Jiang Yong. However, when she got home, she found that Jiang Rushong and Jiang Yi were not at home. She was immediately anxious and ran to Xiang Shichu's house. She didn't care about her previous disagreement with Xiang Shichu and asked Xiang Shichu: "Shichu, do you know where my old Jiang and Xiaoyi are? Old Jiang is still sitting in a wheelchair. How can he go out? What if something happens?"
Xiang Shichu looked at her with some sympathy and said, "He scolded Jiang Yi, and Jiang Yi got angry and ran away. He chased him, and now he doesn't know where he is. You should go and look for him quickly."
"What?" Wu Qingxuan's face suddenly showed an indescribable expression, "Why do you all like to run outside? Isn't this a hindrance?"
