736: Maintaining the last bit of dignity
The two children, one has a chubby face, and the other is not even a month old, with delicate features, and the shadow of the daughter can be vaguely seen in his facial features.
Shen Hongcai suddenly understood why his daughter was not in the forest farm but here, and why his daughter stayed on the kang and did not leave the house.
Because my daughter just gave birth and is still in confinement!
He always thought that his daughter was still single, but it turns out that she is already married and has children?
It was like a bolt from the blue hitting Shen Hongcai's head, and he was completely stunned.
Before Shen Hongcai could recover from his shock, Yu Zhengxian followed him into the house.
When he entered the room and saw the father and daughter sitting face to face in silence, he felt a mixture of emotions. He couldn't face such a scene and wanted to leave, but he missed his son so much.
The longing for his son finally overwhelmed the cowardice in his heart. He walked to the kang, looked down at his son who was sleeping soundly, and was surprised to find that after only a dozen days without seeing him, his son had changed a lot, becoming different from the wrinkled child in his memory.
Seeing his son grow up a little, Yu Zhengxian's anxious heart was filled with a sense of relief.
He didn't care that his son was still sleeping. He gently opened the quilt, picked up the blanket, held his son in his arms, turned to face Shen Hongcai, and said with difficulty:
"Old sir, this is the son of Chen Ci and me, and your grandson. His name is Changning, Yu Changning."
Shen Hongcai stared at his daughter in a daze. Although he knew that seeing was believing, he still asked as if in a dream:
"Xiaoci, is this all true? Tell me, is this all true?"
Chen Ci choked:
"It's true, Dad. I'm pregnant. I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner."
"Why, why didn't you tell me?"
"I--"
Chen Ci choked.
Yu Zhengxian looked at Chen Ci with tears in her eyes with great nervousness, his heart in his throat. He was afraid that Chen Ci would say that she was forced. Although this was true, as long as Chen Ci said this, it would be equivalent to sentencing him, Yu Zhengxian, to death, and he would never be forgiven by Chen Ci's father.
Yu Zhengxian's breathing was choked, and he just stared at Chen Ci blankly, waiting for Chen Ci's verdict on him.
But Chen Ci's words were stuck in his throat and did not break through for a long time.
Shen Hongcai seemed to understand his daughter's heart. He put down his luggage and walked to the kang, asking with concern:
"Xiaoci, tell Dad the truth. What happened? Tell Dad, if you've been wronged, tell Dad the truth. Dad will take you away now!"
Chen Ci glanced at Xu Ying and Cuihua who entered the house. Seeing these two people, she couldn't say that she was wronged here. She was taken care of carefully here, and her son was also fed by Cuihua. Everyone in this family, including Yu Zhengxian who had hurt her before, also took care of her meticulously.
So she couldn't say with a clear conscience that she was wronged here.
Amidst mixed emotions, Chen Ci shook her head:
"No, Dad, I haven't been wronged."
Her words made Yu Zhengxian breathe a sigh of relief. Thank God, his daughter-in-law did not expose his crimes in front of his father, but instead maintained his last bit of dignity.
He will always be grateful to his wife for protecting him today!
Shen Hongcai asked:
"Why are you crying if you haven't been wronged?"
Chen Ci sighed and smiled:
"I see my dad, and I'm happy."
Although Shen Hongcai still had doubts in his heart, his daughter insisted on saying so. In front of the other members of the Yu family, he did not pursue the matter further. He asked again:
"You got married and had children here, why didn't you tell me?"
"I, I don't know how to tell you."
Is there anything she can't say? His daughter is still hiding something from him! Perhaps she doesn't dare to speak in front of others. Since his daughter is so hesitant about this, Shen Hongcai stopped asking.
If I ask any more, I might alert the enemy.
That's why Shen Hong pretended not to notice and changed his tone and said:
"Anyway, you shouldn't have kept such a big thing as getting married and having children from me. If I hadn't happened to come find you, how long would you have kept it a secret from me?"
Chen Ci was speechless.
At this time, Xu Ying finally came to her senses, quickly took a large bowl, poured hot water into it and placed it on the kang table:
"Dad Chen Ci, you must be freezing after such a long journey. Come and drink some hot water to warm yourself up. Have you had lunch? If not, I'll make you a bowl of hot soup."
Yu Zhengxian hurriedly said:
"By the way, the old man hasn't eaten or drunk anything. Cuihua, can you make him some hot food?"
Yu Zhengxian didn't dare to order his mother around, so he could only order Cuihua around.
Cuihua nodded:
"Oh, okay, I'll go make you some hot food right away!"
After saying that, he turned around and went to the kitchen to cook.
Xu Ying glared at Yu Zhengxian, as if she was dissatisfied with his bossy attitude in the family. Yu Zhengxian's skin tightened all over.
Shen Hongcai said politely to Xu Ying:
"I'm sorry to bother you."
"No, no, no, it's not a bother, it's my duty, it's my duty——"
"I want to have a word with my daughter alone."
"No problem, no problem," Xu Ying agreed, then glared at Yu Zhengxian secretly and said through gritted teeth, "Did you listen——"
Yu Zhengxian looked down at his son in his arms, and reluctantly put him back on the kang:
"Okay, let's go out and you guys chat."
Yu Zhengxian carefully put the quilt on his son, then left, looking back every few steps.
Xu Ying also left the room, leaving the father and daughter to talk alone in the room for a while.
After leaving the room, Yu Jiahui was still standing at the door with a sullen face. He heard everything that was said inside. Because Chen Ci was still in confinement, he, the nominal "father-in-law", did not enter the "daughter-in-law"'s room, so he stayed outside.
At this moment, the family of three came out, and Yu Zhengxian suddenly felt a gunpowder in the cold air.
taste.
Just as he was about to beg for mercy, Yu Jiahui slapped the fox fur hat off his head, took off his gloves in a flash, grabbed his red, frozen ears, and asked in a very low voice:
"Fuck you, if I give you a ladder you'll be able to reach the sky, right? You deserve to have to clean up your ass all day, right?"
Yu Zhengxian opened his mouth in pain and dared not scream. He could only groan and endure it, turning to Xu Ying to beg for mercy:
"mom--"
Xu Ying reached out and grabbed his other ear, cursing softly as well:
"You bastard, look at how much trouble you've caused. If Chen Ci hadn't been soft-hearted and let you go time and time again, you would have been damned to hell!"
Yu Zhengxian almost cried to death. He just felt someone pulling his ears hard on both sides, but he didn't feel any pain because his ears were numb from the cold.
The weather was cold, and it was no joke that my ears would freeze off. I was afraid they might be pulled off with a little force. Yu Zhengxian could only beg for mercy in a low voice:
"No, Dad, Mom, don't pull my ears off! Can we hit me later?"
Yu Jiahui let go of his hand and kicked Yu Zhengxian on the butt again.
Yu Zhengxian staggered and flew forward.
Xu Ying's hand slipped and the ear in his hand fell loose.
