Chapter 40 The Unsolvable Knot
The stick hit his body, making dull sounds.
Liang Weijiang said nothing, clenched his teeth tightly, and beads of sweat dripped down his forehead.
"Third uncle, stop hitting me!" Liang Huanxue couldn't bear it anymore, so she walked over and tugged at Liang Yuanshan's sleeve.
"Xue'er, look how childish he has made you." Liang Yuanshan said this, but he felt sorry for beating his own son, so he threw away the stick in his hand.
When Liu Chunhua heard the news and saw her son beaten like this, she immediately burst into tears.
"What are you doing? You are so cruel to your own son! How do you know that mother fainted because of Weijiang? What if something else happened?" Liu Chunhua wanted to help Liang Weijiang up, but he didn't move.
"Mom, it's my fault. Just let me kneel down." Liang Weijiang looked at Old Lady Liang lying on the bed and felt very uncomfortable.
He didn't want to get to the bottom of it, but he couldn't just give up on Fu Shushu.
"You... why did you bother your grandma for no reason? Did you mention Fu Shushu in front of your grandma again? Your grandma told you not to associate with her, why didn't you listen?"
"Mom, she doesn't like Fu Shushu, there must be other reasons..."
"Because Shen He is my family's enemy!" Liang Yuanshan interrupted him.
Liu Chunhua was completely relieved now.
With such a deep hatred, he couldn't even think about it unless all the other members of the Liang family died.
Liang Weijiang only felt a thunder blast in his ears, and the whole person seemed to be thrown off a cliff and smashed to pieces.
Fu Shushu and he were actually enemies.
"Your grandma has never liked Fu Shushu. She has told you many times not to have any contact with Fu Shushu, but you just wouldn't listen. Now that you know the truth, you should be obedient, right?" Liu Chunhua reached out to help him again.
This time Liang Weijiang did not kneel stubbornly, but let Liu Chunhua help him up.
He seemed to have lost his soul.
Liu Chunhua couldn't move him, so she had to call Liang Yuanshan over, and the two of them helped him back to the room together.
"Third brother, why didn't mother let you tell others about such an important matter? If I had told you earlier..."
"Don't ask."
Liang Yuanshan knew that his mother would be furious when she woke up and found out that he had told the truth.
But what can I do if I don’t say it?
Was he going to let him watch his foolish son fall in love?
If he wants to know the reason, then tell him the reason, so that he can really give up.
Seeing his serious expression, Liu Chunhua knew that what happened back then must not have been simple.
The words came to his lips, but he swallowed them back.
When Mrs. Liang woke up, there was a circle of people surrounding her bed.
She held her forehead and sat up. Seeing Liang Weijiang's expression, she realized that he already knew the truth.
"It's not that I don't want to talk about it, but no one supported us back then. We were the only ones who thought that Da Nian would not do such a thing. But everyone else in the village supported Shen He. That's why I chose to move."
Stay away from that place of trouble and start over somewhere else.
But who could have thought that more than ten years later, Shen He would actually get married.
It seems like there is some unsolvable karma.
"Mom, I didn't explain in detail." Liang Yuanshan spoke quickly.
He knew that his mother didn't want to mention what happened back then, so he just said that Shen He was his family's enemy.
But no word was given about what actually happened.
"It doesn't matter if I tell them. They should know it." Old Mrs. Liang closed her eyes and sighed.
Liang Huanxue looked at her in pain and wanted to comfort her, but she didn't know what to say, so she had to climb onto the bed on tiptoe and hold her hand.
Being held by the chubby little hands, Mrs. Liang's cold heart suddenly warmed up a lot.
"Don't worry, Xue'er, I'm fine!"
She knew she couldn't dwell on the painful memories.
What’s more important is the present.
"Grandma, I will never meet Fu Shushu again." Liang Weijiang knew in his heart that this was an unsolvable knot.
He wanted to be with Fu Shushu, unless they both left here together and let go of everything.
But how can it be done easily?
All he could do was never see her again.
"I want to go to Brother Wenxuan's place to help. Didn't they say that the clerk in his store doesn't work? I want to be his clerk."
Liang Weijiang thought about it for a long time. If they were in the same village, they would definitely be in a situation where they would never see each other.
You can't avoid it.
So let's just move away from there and go to the county town.
Just stay in the rice wine shop and don't go anywhere else, and you won't have any contact with Fu Shushu anymore.
"You want to be his employee? Are you crazy?" Liu Chunhua was unhappy when she heard this.
How could her son become Liang Wenxuan's partner?
"Why not? Wenxuan is short of staff, so what's wrong with him going to help?" Liang Yuanshan thought it was a good idea.
When he went to Liang Wenxuan, he could not only learn some skills but also stay away from Fu Shushu, which was killing two birds with one stone.
"I think Wei Jiang is not bad either. We might as well let him ask for a shopkeeper position from County Magistrate Fu." Liu Chunhua had a nice idea.
"Do you think it's that easy to be a shopkeeper? Wen Xuan suffered so much in the house of County Magistrate Fu, and was even wrongly accused of being a thief, before he got the position of shopkeeper.
That rice wine shop is dirty and run-down, not a place that ordinary people can stay in. Does your son have such ability?"
"Liang Yuanshan, isn't Wei Jiang also your son? Why do you have to say such things?" Liu Chunhua was very angry with him.
"It is precisely because Weijiang is my son that I can say this. He has never done business, nor has he seen others do business. He is definitely not qualified to be a shopkeeper. You can't be blinded just because he is your son, right?"
Liang Yuanshan speaks the truth.
Of course, he did not look down on his son, but he felt that doing business was a science that needed to be learned.
Liang Wenxuan has taken the first step towards success, and Liang Weijiang will definitely not make any mistakes if he follows him.
"Mom, Dad is right. I have never done business before. Even if Brother Wenxuan takes me to the Shen Mansion now, I am afraid that County Magistrate Fu will not even look at me. If you have money to let me open a shop, that's another matter."
Liu Chunhua originally wanted to refute, but after Liang Weijiang said this, she shut up.
After all, she really couldn't afford to buy a shop for her son.
There was no way that Mrs. Liang would agree to take out the money.
Liang Weijiang still needs to recuperate for a few days. Once his injury is healed, he will go to the county town.
It was already evening when Shen Yuefu came back from selling rouge.
She took out a candied haws and handed it to Liang Huanxue, "Here, Xue'er, take it."
The first two times Liang Huanxue went to the county town, she stared at the candied haws on the street for several times, but she did not make a fuss to buy any.
