Bamboo horse is not a gentleman

Chapter 25

Yuan Qing barely held up a smile:

"Mom, here are the stationery and toys I brought for Xiaofeng, as well as the down jacket and scarf I bought for you. Anqing is much colder than Lucheng. You need to wear more clothes so you don't freeze yourself."

Xu Hu snorted from his nasal cavity:
"I knew you were here, didn't your mother turn the air conditioner up to 28 degrees, it's like summer, I'm almost sweating, how cold is it?!"

For a while, the scene was completely cold, and everyone was silent. Wang Yuqian hurriedly smoothed things over and said:
"Mom isn't cold. Mom felt warm when she saw you coming, but if you stand around like this again, the food will be cold. Let's eat!"

So, the four of them walked into the living room one after the other.The round table in the living room was full of dishes, and the dishes were basically Yuan Qing's favorite, but considering Xu Hu's mood, there were a few fish dishes with a strong spicy taste.

Yuan Qing and Lu Bai stood quietly on the right side of the long table, and waited until their stepfather swaggered to take the main seat and Wang Yuqian took the seat on the left, before sitting down.

It is Xu Hu's rule to not talk when eating or sleeping.

Because of the previous unhappiness, no one wanted to destroy it at this time and cause trouble, so the reunion dinner passed in an extremely dull atmosphere.After dinner, Xu Hu went to the living room to watch TV. After getting his approval, Lu Bai went to a small room far away from the living room to finish the manuscript behind closed doors, while Wang Yuqian held her daughter in the kitchen and refused to let go.

Without much effort, her daughter, whom she had not seen for many days, was completely kneaded and flattened into white dough in Wang Yuqian's hands.

Yuan Qing's cheeks and chin were reddened by her mother, and her soft hands were also held by her excitedly, leaving a red mark.

"Thinner, thinner."

At this moment, my mother is not as aggressive as she was on the phone. She has been suffering for too long with a loving mother's heart, and finally there is only this sentence left, saying it over and over again.During this familiar chatter, Yuan Qing's heart warmed and her eyes turned red. In order not to make this brief reunion too sad, she could only change the subject:
"Where's Xiaofeng?"

"He's in school, and you'll see him in the evening."

In fact, Yuan Qing didn't want to see Xu Feng at all. This fat man who was pampered lawlessly and domineering never brought her any good memories.

"Mom, here is 2000 yuan, you can keep it for yourself, don't tell dad and brother." Yuan Qing lowered his voice, and took out a thick paper bag from his pocket. "I know that all the money is in... Dad's hands. You can use whatever you want to eat and use. When I save more money, I will send you more every month."

"En, en." Wang Yuqian nodded desperately, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone, I will keep it for you, I will keep it for you, and I will give you a dowry when you marry."

When mentioning the dowry, Yuan Qing suddenly thought of Lu Bai saying that he would introduce her to a blind date, and his heart was agitated, but Wang Yuqian's advice came from his ears:

"Lu Bai has a calm personality, is smart and capable. Fortunately, he is taking care of you in Lucheng, so I feel at ease. He said that he will introduce you to a partner soon. I heard that the other party is a young talent. You have to behave well. , women have to take the initiative to seize happiness. When you have a husband and children, I will close my eyes even if I die."

"Mom, what nonsense are you talking about!"

The mother and daughter were talking intimately when they suddenly heard shouts from the living room:

"What, you all ate up the roast duck behind my back!"

Wang Yuqian frowned, looked at her daughter, and patted her hand helplessly:

"Wait for me, I'll go and have a look."

The sudden return of younger brother Xu Feng surprised Yuan Qing.

After a while, Wang Yuqian's inquiry came:
"Why did you come back so early? No class in the afternoon?"

"Teacher Wan suddenly fell ill, what can I do?" Xu Feng curled his lips, and the boy with a full tonnage took two steps forward waddlingly, and opened the refrigerator, "Dad said that I cooked a lot of dishes today, where are the dishes going?" went?"

"Your sister finally came back. These dishes are for her. I'll cook whatever you want."

Xu Feng lowered his face, his disdainful expression was exactly the same as his father's:
"What kind of honored guest should I be? Eat my dad's, use my dad's. I have graduated from university and worked for so many years, but I don't see any money coming back, and I have the nerve to come back and eat and drink!"

Wang Yuqian's face changed, but because Xu Hu was at the side, she could only say softly:

"Don't talk about your sister like that, she brought you a lot of stationery and toys."

"Who wants her things! Since her father is dead, she should have gotten out of the house long ago!"

As soon as the words fell, there was a "pa", Xu Feng felt a pain on his face, Wang Yuqian's palm had already swept over him, he froze for a moment, then his eyes turned red, and he burst into tears like a three-year-old child .

"Ah, what are you doing?!"

Hearing her mother's exclamation, Yuan Qing rushed out of the kitchen in three steps and two steps, only to see her stepfather punching her mother's head with his fist. Wang Yuqian fell to the ground, closed her eyes and passed out.

That scene made Yuan Qing's heart almost stop, and the anger he had endured for so many years rushed to the top of his head, and he burned inside.

Yuan Qing clenched his hands, put them down and clenched them again, his heart fluctuated violently for a moment, and finally bypassed Xu Hu, squatted down and lifted Wang Yuqian's head, trying to wake her up.

Xu Hu came to his son as if nothing happened, rubbed his head, and said dotingly:

"Does it hurt? Let's go, Dad will take you to KFC!"

Xu Feng immediately laughed through his tears: "I want to eat the whole family bucket!"

"Okay, family bucket is family bucket!"

"But..." Xu Feng looked at Wang Yuqian.

"It's okay, sometimes your mother just owes a lesson, let's see if she dares to hit you next time!"

"Dad is so nice, I like dad the most!"

The father and son walked out the door as if nothing had happened, without looking at Wang Yuqian who was lying on the ground.

Seeing that her mother was still awake, Yuan Qing was about to call 120 when Lu Bai came out of the study and said in shock:

"I faintly heard the quarrel in the room. I was worried that making a move would make it difficult for you and auntie, so I held back and didn't come out. What happened?"

"My mother was beaten up by someone surnamed Xu, and she is still in a coma."

"Go to the hospital quickly." Surprised and angry, Lu Bai picked up Wang Yuqian and rushed out of the gate.

Fortunately, Wang Yuqian opened her eyes in the taxi. Looking at her daughter's red and swollen eyes, she was heartbroken. She could only force a smile to comfort her daughter:
"Don't be sad, your father has such a temper. He is usually quite good-natured. It's just that I shouldn't beat Xiaofeng. Xiaofeng is his fate."

"Mom, or... just get a divorce."

"You child, what nonsense are you talking about, and you must not forget your roots. If it weren't for Xu Hu, our mother and I would still be able to live a peaceful life now? It was my fault, and I shouldn't beat Xiaofeng. The heart may not be so bad." Wang Yuqian said, looking at her daughter with a pair of bright eyes, her expression was full of pleading.

Yuan Qing let out a long sigh, and his heart softened:

"If he bullies you again, just tell me, and I won't forgive him."

The scene of Xu Hu beating someone was so unforgettable that Yuan Qing refused to call out the word "Dad" after all.
