Chapter 1265: Miss Cousin Does Not Want to Be Entrusted to Her (10)
Wanqu Villa.
Wei Ning had just returned to his courtyard after practicing martial arts with his fellow apprentices when he saw his mother, Zhou Wei, scolding his personal maid Xiao Ru with a stern face:
"Look at what you are wearing. You look like a whore in a brothel! You are so coquettish and seductive, you don't look like a decent person. If you really want sex, there are plenty of men in the village down the mountain! But if you dare to set your mind on my son, I will never forgive you..."
"Mom! What nonsense are you talking about? Xiaoru has always been considerate and sensible, and has taken good care of me. Even if you are angry, you don't have to vent it on her, right?" Wei Ning hurried in to stop his mother.
"Young Master!" As soon as Xiaoru saw Wei Ning, the shame and sadness she had just felt when she was insulted by Zhou Wei burst out all at once. Tears rolled down her cheeks and she looked at Wei Ning with great grievance.
"Look at her! How can she behave like a decent woman? I shouldn't have put her by your side in the first place. I let her become so bold that she even dares to seduce you..." Zhou Wei's face looked extremely ugly, and she angrily accused Xiaoru.
When Xiaoru heard her words, she felt even more ashamed, wronged, and sad. She defended herself with red eyes: "Madam, I have never thought of this. You misunderstood me..."
"Bah! You little bitch, why don't you admit it? My son is so outstanding, he will definitely marry a girl of equal status in the future, even a princess. How dare you, a little maid, covet my son..." Zhou Wei's words became more and more outrageous.
"Mom! Xiaoru is not that kind of person... Xiaoru, my shoes are worn out again today. Please go back and make me a new pair." Wei Ning hurriedly comforted the two women. He has always been kind to women. No matter how bad one of them is, she is still his mother, and the other is a gentle maid who grew up with him as a childhood sweetheart. He feels sorry for both of them. Now that they are having a quarrel, he can only separate them.
Finally, Xiao Ru left. Wei Ning was relieved to see that his mother finally stopped scolding Xiao Ru. He asked, "Mom, what do you want to see me for?"
"Can't I come to see you if I have nothing to do?" Zhou Wei said unhappily. She was thirsty after scolding Xiaoru for so long. After drinking a cup of tea to moisten her throat, she continued, "It's all because of that vixen Liu! Her kid is old enough to learn martial arts, and she actually had the nerve to ask your father to teach the kid himself. How dare a lowly bastard dream like that? The hateful thing is that your father actually agreed!"
"Mom, don't always call Wei Quan a little bastard. He is my brother after all. Dad will definitely be mad at you again if he sees you calling him like that." Wei Ning said helplessly.
Wei Quan is his half-brother, only six years old this year. He and his aunt Liu are both thorns in Zhou Wei's side. But that's normal, after all, the wife and the concubine have always been enemies.
"If you are angry, then be angry! Your father is biased. Besides, that brat is not your brother, he is not worthy of being your brother. Who made him have a mother who was a prostitute? He is of low status to begin with, am I wrong to call him a brat?" Zhou Wei said indignantly.
Liu was indeed born in a brothel and was very beautiful. Wei Shouyi met her when he was out on business and fell in love with her at first sight. So he redeemed her and took her back to Wanqu Villa as a concubine. He doted on her and she gave birth to a son, Wei Quan.
This made Wei Ning's mother very angry, and she made a fuss for a long time. However, men always forget their old loves when they have a new one. Naturally, Zhou Wei did not get what she wanted. Instead, she made Wei Shouyi even more disgusted and pushed Wei Shouyi to Liu.
It would be strange if Zhou Wei didn't resent Liu for this reason.
"Mom, no matter what Wei Quan's biological mother's background is, he is after all my father's bloodline and my younger brother. This cannot be denied." As a man, Wei Ning could not understand the pain of a woman whose husband was taken away, even if that was his biological mother, because deep down he agreed with men having three wives and four concubines, and did not think there was anything wrong with his father taking a concubine. Instead, he felt that his mother was jealous, intolerant, and petty.
However, he considered himself to be a filial son. Even though his mother had such a bad personality, he was very tolerant and often advised his mother to be more tolerant and generous so that he could win back his father's heart.
Zhou Wei couldn't understand why he didn't stand on her side. She shouted angrily, "Are you still my son? Why are you talking to that vixen and that brat? Your father only loves the mother and son. I think it won't be long before you, the eldest son, and I, the legal wife, have no place in Wanqu Villa. We will be driven out of the house by them!"
"No, you think too much. Dad is not such a fool. Besides, my brother is still young. How could he take my place?" Wei Ning was not worried at all. He was very confident in himself because his father once praised him for his top talent in martial arts. He would definitely become a first-class martial arts master and carry forward Wanqu Villa. His father cared so much about the villa, so it was impossible for him not to care about him, an excellent heir.
"You don't know, if a man becomes partial, he can do the most absurd things! So what if the kid is young? He will grow up! Your father may have started paving the way for him now, otherwise he would not have taught him martial arts personally..." Zhou Wei said confidently.
"Mom, you forgot that Dad taught me personally when I was young." Wei Ning said helplessly, "And Dad has long praised me for my excellent talent in martial arts. In the future, Wanqu Villa will have to rely on me to develop. Dad regards the villa as more important than anything else, you know this, so even if Dad is partial to my younger brother, he has to value me for the development of Wanqu Villa, so all the things you worry about will not happen, there is no need to worry so much..."
When Zhou Wei heard him say this, she really woke up from her trance. Her sorrow and resentment disappeared at once, and she became excited. She looked at Wei Ning with a look of relief and said, "Fortunately, my son is very hardworking and talented in martial arts. He is also hardworking and motivated. This is something that the lowly son of that bitch can't compare to. You really didn't let me down."
"Mother, it's good that you know this. There is no need to bother with Aunt Liu in the future. Your son will earn you the honor you want."
Wei Ning said confidently.
"Okay! Then I'll wait to enjoy the blessing of my son." Zhou Wei was overjoyed by Wei Ning's words, as if she had already seen the scene where her son was respected, envied and sought after by everyone wherever he went because he was a top martial arts master.
Wei Ning was relieved to see that she was finally happy. He didn't want to coax his moody mother all the time, but there was no other way. If he didn't coax her, no one would. If he brought the incident to Liu or his father, his mother would be the only one who would suffer. How could he bear that? So he had to coax her patiently himself.
