Beijing City
Time goes back to one day ago
The afternoon sun is warm and mellow. The day after tomorrow is New Year's Eve. The shops, green trees and street lights on both sides of the street are all hung with New Year decorations.
There are colorful lanterns of various sizes, three-dimensional characters for "Fu" decorated with tassels, string lights wrapped around tree branches, and zodiac mascots.
It looks very festive and full of the flavor of the New Year.
Chen Zui drove his newly purchased Rolls-Royce to the airport to pick someone up. He was surprised to find that only Yong Zhixu had returned. "Why did you come back alone? Where's she?"
Yong Zhixu opened the car door and sat in the back seat. "She didn't come. There's a problem between us. Chen Zui, I need your cooperation..."
Feilongqiao Hutong, Nanchizi Street
In the deepest part of the quadrangle, the sound of opera singing came from the theater. On the waterside pavilion, the opera actors in bold colors were singing Mu Guiying Takes Command.
In the pavilion opposite, Old Man Yong was holding a hand warmer and listening to the opera calmly.
On his left sat Yong Hechen and Ye Qingwu.
On the right is Yong Heting, Yong Zhixu's father, who had just returned from the Northeast Military Region and was still in his military uniform.
He received the news that his son brought his girlfriend home, so he specially adjusted his vacation to come back.
There is also Lin Suiying, who is in the same class as Xiu. In order to meet Tang Xili, she spent a whole morning to make a decent and elegant hairstyle and changed into a youthful outfit.
When the play was halfway through, the servant came and called out, "Old man, the young master is back."
Old Master Yong immediately stood up, straightened his Mao suit, and walked towards the living room in the front yard with full energy and brisk steps.
Yong Heting followed closely behind, holding Lin Suiying's hand, and Yong Hechen also followed behind, holding his wife's hand.
As they ordered the servants to get the prepared gifts, they talked and laughed, lamenting that they had finally waited for this day.
But when everyone arrived at the ancient-style reception room and saw that only Yong Zhixu and Chen Zui were sitting on the sofa, the smiles on their faces disappeared.
The old man walking in front stopped and looked left and right, front and back, "Where are the people?"
Yong Zhixu drank his tea and said calmly, "We broke up."
Several elders: “???”
"Break up?" The old man's tone was much higher than usual. "Why?"
Who said that he can't live without her and that she is indispensable, and that he should respect and bless her.
Now he is ready to respect and bless her, but he says he wants to break up!
Lin Suiying was also confused and looked at her son in great bewilderment. "Wasn't he fine before he left?"
She looked at Chen Zui again, asking him with her eyes if it was true.
Chen Zui nodded to indicate that it was true.
Yong Heting also asked, "Xiao Xu, what's going on?"
Yong Hechen and Ye Qingwu didn't ask, but their eyes were full of confusion, waiting for their nephew's explanation.
Yong Zhixu dismissed all the servants and waited until the elders were seated. He then sat casually on the sofa and said in a very nonchalant tone, "She is infertile and cannot give birth, so I don't want her anymore..."
That look was as natural as it could be.
After hearing this, several elders were stunned. They looked at each other in surprise, thinking that they had heard it wrong.
Chen Zui lowered his head and covered his eyes. He had already foreseen a mixed doubles match. He prayed silently: "Third brother, hold on..."
As expected, after a moment of dead silence, the usually calm Lin Suiying stood up and looked at Yong Zhixu sternly, "Say what you just said again for me."
Yong Zhixu calmly repeated what he had just said.
Before he could finish his words, Lin Suiying rushed over, slapped him in the face, and said sternly, "Women are not tools for bearing children, and dating and marriage are not for the purpose of having children. What are your values?"
Yong Zhixu met her gaze without flinching. "If she can't carry on the family line, what do I need her for?"
"You..." Lin Suiying was so angry that her body shook. She couldn't believe that such oppressive words towards women and full of feudal ideas came from her son's mouth.
Seeing the little bastard making his wife so angry, Yong Heting punched Yong Zhixu in the face. "What do you think of this girl? You're a scumbag who abandons her after having sex with her!"
He looked at the old man angrily, "Dad, is this the good thing you raised?"
Yong Hechen and Ye Qingwu also found it difficult to agree with Yong Zhixu's values. They looked at the old man, their eyes seemed to say: How do you educate your children?
The old man feels extremely wronged, this is not what he taught!
To be honest, he was also very shocked. He could accept that they broke up due to emotional incompatibility, but he could not accept that his grandson would ruin the girl like this.
"Pa pa!" The old man walked up to Yong Zhixu and, gathering all his strength, slapped him twice, gritting his teeth. "You irresponsible scumbag, you make me sick."
Chen Zui, who was standing by, shuddered when he heard the crisp sound of the slap, and lowered his head even lower.
Third brother, your move of taking the initiative and retreating to advance is a bit embarrassing. Isn't this just asking for a fight?
However, he still followed the plan and cooperated, admonishing, "Stop fighting! Why are you hitting Third Brother? If you want to blame someone, blame Tang Xili for not being able to have children..."
Before he could finish his words, Lin Suiying shoved him hard. "You keep saying you can't have children. Who do you think you are? Do you think love is a joke? If you say you don't want it, then don't. Yong Zhixu, you shameless person, you bring misfortune to your family!"
"Kneel down!" Ms. Lin Suiying, who has always been gentle and polite, was so angry for the first time. She picked up a broom and started hitting, and also hit Chen Zui.
The whole room was filled with Chen Zui's screams.
Yong Qingfang came back from shopping with her friends. As soon as she entered the living room, she saw Yong Zhixu kneeling on the ground and being beaten.
She covered her mouth, extremely surprised, and came to Ye Qingwu and asked quietly: "Auntie, what's going on? Why did Third Brother get beaten?"
"He deserves to be beaten..." Ye Qingwu told her everything that had just happened without missing a word.
Yong Qingfang immediately became furious and cheered for Lin Suiying, "Come on, Second Auntie, beat up this scumbag..."
Things were already chaotic enough, and now someone came out to cheer them up. The old man had a headache. He slapped the back of the sofa and shouted, "Minister Lin, stop it! Let's have a good talk with this bastard first."
Panting and with her hair in disarray, Lin Suiying stopped, threw down the broom, and kicked Yong Zhixu in frustration, "Speak nicely to me. If you dare to say such nonsense again, I'll beat you to death!"
Yong Zhixu got up from the ground and sat on the sofa without saying a word.
Everyone sat down again.
The atmosphere was somewhat solemn.
Old Master Yong looked at the large bruise on Yong Zhixu's face and the blood at the corner of his mouth, and gave Yong Heting a very dissatisfied look.
This father was too harsh.
