After driving Xue Tingsheng away, Fu Ling was already so angry that his face turned red and he was out of breath.
Mother Xing didn't understand why Fu Ling was like this, so she just tried to comfort her, "Madam, you're so angry that you're confused. Your uncle and niece are incestuous, but the relationship between the young master and the cousin is a good thing."
Unexpectedly, it would have been fine if he hadn't said it. As soon as he said this, Fu Ling couldn't catch his breath and fainted again.
…
After being beaten and smashed, Xue Tingsheng couldn't understand why he had become so shameless. His mother had clearly praised him for being decent!
Could it be that his mother was driven mad by his father? If his mother couldn't decide on his marriage, who else could he turn to?
Then it can only be...his father.
He went to Qingyunzhai with trepidation in his heart, but he didn't expect Xue Tingliu to be there. Seeing Xue Tingliu discussing matters with his father, his expression darkened, but he still bowed respectfully to Xue Zhentong: "Dad."
"Tingsheng." Although he had said those harsh words in front of Fu Ling, Xue Tingsheng was his eldest son after all, so he would not treat him coldly. He only asked, "What's wrong?"
Xue Tingsheng stood straight, but compared to Xue Tingliu who was sitting calmly at the moment, he seemed a little dull and timid.
"Son has something he wants to ask for his permission."
Xue Zhentong did not stop handling the official business at hand: "Go ahead."
Looking at Xue Tingsheng, who still had slap marks on his face and looked a little embarrassed, Xue Tingliu leaned back like watching a show, silently peeling an orange and eating it.
Xue Tingsheng took another deep breath and said, "Please, Father, approve my son's marriage to my cousin Rong Xin."
"Who are you and?" Xue Zhentong narrowed his eyes and opened his mouth, as if wondering how such words could come out of his mouth.
Xue Tingliu, who was watching the show, ate an orange slice calmly. He raised his eyebrows: It seems that Fu Ling really intends to marry that destitute Fu Rongxin to his son. I'm afraid there will be a good show to watch.
Xue Tingsheng mumbled, "Me and... and Rongxin."
"No!" Xue Zhentong also reacted violently. He walked up to Xue Tingsheng and warned him sternly, "This is absolutely impossible. Don't even think about it!"
Xue Tingliu was also a little puzzled. His father was quite good to Fu Rongxin and should not dislike her. If that was the case, why did he oppose it so strongly?
Xue Tingsheng was even more confused. He was not the only one in the world who married his cousin. Many of his classmates married their cousins according to their family's wishes, but why couldn't he do the same?
Could it be... Could it be that Rong Ziying was right?
Thinking of this, he panicked: "Why not? Could it be that father has other plans?"
Xue Zhentong said: "Yes, your cousin's marriage will be arranged by herself, you don't have to think about it anymore, just give up this thought as soon as possible!"
When he thought about how his father was so disrespectful and coveted such a delicate little cousin, he was filled with anger.
"I'm afraid you're only doing this to save my father's heart, right?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Xue Tingliu secretly exclaimed: Is this coward crazy today?
Xue Zhentong's eyes widened: "What do you mean by that!?"
At this moment, Xue Tingsheng felt that he was a righteous man, a warrior who protected his poor cousin. He looked directly at Xue Zhentong and said, "Father, do you dare to say that you haven't set your sights on Rong Xin just as you did on Rong Ziying?"
The moment he said this, Xue Zhentong's expression changed. He felt as if he had been insulted. "Evil creature!"
Then, another slap landed on the other half of Xue Tingsheng's face, making him dizzy and that half of his face swelled up quickly.
Xue Tingliu's orange fell down in fright. He clicked his tongue, shook his head, and peeled another one.
Xue Tingsheng wiped the blood from his nose, becoming more and more courageous as he was frustrated. He glared at Xue Zhentong, "Father has disregarded moral principles once, will he do it a second time? If father really dares to do anything to Rongxin, I will definitely go and beat the drum myself to protest!"
Xue Zhentong was almost going crazy with anger. His body was shaking like a sieve. He pointed his finger at Xue Tingsheng and said, "You...what kind of filthy things are you thinking about all day long?"
When Fu Ling gave birth to this son, did she lose his brain in the placenta?
Xue Tingliu almost laughed out loud: What the hell is this? Xue Tingsheng suspects his father wants to monopolize Fu Rongxin?!
Xue Tingsheng remained righteous and stern, saying, "No matter how filthy it is, it is not as bad as my father's immoral behavior and his rebellious behavior!"
At this moment, Xue Zhentong was already dizzy with anger. If he had not held on to the table, he would have fainted from anger.
He shouted sharply: "Hubai!"
Hu Bai responded and walked in.
Xue Zhentong covered his chest which was bursting with pain, and it was a rare moment for him to be in solidarity with Fu Ling and his wife.
"Drag this evil creature out... drag him out and give him thirty lashes!"
Several people carried Xue Tingsheng to the yard for execution, but he didn't stop talking: "No matter how my father tries to stop me, I will definitely protect Rongxin! Don't try to separate us no matter what!"
Xue Zhentong felt heartbroken again: "Fifty strokes!"
Listening to the sound of boards hitting people outside and Xue Tingsheng's screams, Xue Tingliu pressed the corners of his mouth, trying not to irritate Xue Zhentong at this time.
He stood up and bowed: "Father is busy now, son will take his leave."
Xue Zhentong didn't even bother to look at him, he just waved his hand and asked him to leave.
In the courtyard.
Looking at Xue Tingsheng, who was sweating profusely after being beaten, and the blood-stained hem of his clothes behind him, Xue Tingliu could no longer suppress his laughter: "Brother, when did you go crazy?"
It was a rare occasion for him to lose his composure. He leaned against the wall and laughed out loud for a long time. Xue Tingsheng was so angry that his face turned from pale red to blue red, but he couldn't get up to beat anyone up, so he could only be so helpless and furious.
Xue Tingliu's laughter wasn't enough. He wiped the tears from his eyes and said, "Brother, you are truly capable... I admire you deeply. If my cousin knew about this, she would surely be heartbroken and shed tears in gratitude for your bravery and perseverance!"
"Xue Tingliu you..." Xue Tingsheng tried to get up, but staggered and fell off the bench, pressing on the wound, and screamed again.
Xue Tingliu laughed loudly and left. Xue Tingsheng could only lie on the ground and listen to the laughter coming from near and far.
…
When Xue Zhiyi heard about this, he had the door closed and he curled up in bed, laughing until his waist ached.
When Fu Ling and Xue Zhentong, the couple, made this absurd life-exchanging plan, did they ever imagine that this day would come?
It was really a flood that hit the Dragon King Temple, a boomerang bigger than the sky.
She also heard that not long after beating Xue Tingsheng, Xue Zhentong asked someone to call a doctor to treat his heart pain.
Fu Ling learned about this as soon as he woke up, and fainted again.
So after the doctor finished treating Xue Zhentong, he was called back to Anxianju.
Fu Rongxin cursed loudly and tried her best to deny that she and Xue Tingsheng were in love with each other.
In short, the Xue family had a very messy New Year.
