(Chapter 16) Past events

In Li Yanhua's home, he was wearing a maroon sweater and black trousers, sitting on the rattan chair opposite me,While fiddling with the quartz watch on his left wrist, he asked in a candid tone, "So, what do you want to know?"

"You hide many things from me." I took out a cigarette from the pack, put it in my mouth and lit it. did notThere was a cigarette offered to Li Yanhua. "You are my military adviser, what if we don't face each other honestly? If so,I won't be angry with you if you can tell me a good reason for hiding it from me. "

Li Yanhua raised her eyebrows with a smile, took off the thick glasses with thick frames from her face, and wiped the lenses lightly with a cloth.While I waited for him to speak, I smoked and stared at the corner of the ceiling, my thoughts seemed to pass through the plaster wallto the distant past. It includes the formation of my person and the confusion of history.

Li Yanhua looked at my face for a while. Although I wasn't looking at him, I still felt his gaze on my face. heIt seemed to be a slight sigh. The sigh brought my attention back to him as he slowly put his glasses on. "It seemsYou already know quite a bit. "

"Not more than you."

"I know that you have been in close contact with the Zhang family in the past six months." He said. replaced by a transactionalLi tone. "You met Zhang You. Didn't we agree at the beginning not to play Zhang's idea for the time being?You broke our agreement and kept it from me. When it comes to being honest and relative, you probably stillNot eligible to submit. "

"I, Ai Guan, have never promised you anything." I smiled a little suspiciously. "You remember wrongAm I wrong? Did I ever formally agree to this agreement with you? You just warned me not to rush,And I didn't heed your warning. And I'm not good enough to predict the future. in many casesI can't estimate it. When it happens, it happens naturally, and it cannot be stopped. "

"Why tit for tat?" Li Yanhua said, "I have never betrayed you, and I am still sitting with you until now.in the same boat. I told you not to start with Zhang's family for a good reason. In the end you didn't listen to my adviceI even saw the faces of their masters, but I haven't said anything until now, have I? you from yourselfIf you know something, no problem, you can ask me for confirmation. What I want you to know is that I've beenNever quit our circle. "

"You already knew that I'm not your cousin." I fixed my eyes on him. "You lied to me from the beginning."

"There are two kinds of lies in the world." Li Yanhua stood up, swayed his tall and thin body, and walked to the place next to the wall.Make tea on the wardrobe. Concentrating on spilling the tea leaves onto the cup with his fingertips, he said: "FirstOne speaks out for one's own benefit; the second speaks out for the benefit of both parties. you think clearly, myWhich one is it talking about. "

"I hope it's the second type." I said lightly.

"Your hope has not come to nothing." Li Yanhua put the lid on the kettle, sticking a teacup to each handreturn. "Our plan is to enter the vast commercial market, where not only brains butRelationships, luck, guts and sanity. You are a material that can be made, and you will become a great tool in the future. but you are youngThere are many things beyond your imagination, which are coming down to you like a huge wave. If I don't protect you well,Before entering that world, you only have half your life left, and the road ahead will be even more difficult. "Said one of themPass me a teacup. "Let's drink tea."

"I know you are extremely smart." The sullenness in my heart dissipated slightly, and I sipped hot tea and said, "But you alsoYou shouldn't do everything by yourself. You are my military adviser and have the responsibility to analyze difficult problems for me. "

"I admit that I mishandled it a bit." Li Yanhua cleared his throat and said, "Well, since we're all hereAt this point, I won't hide anything from you anymore. "

"Who am I?" I asked straightforwardly.

"Your surname is not Li, and you are not a descendant of our Li family." Li Yanhua said, "My cousin—Li Guanghua onlyIt's your adoptive father. "

I'm not surprised at all. After being confirmed by Li Yanhua himself, I just felt that I was not the same as the person in front of me.It really has nothing to do with it. As for my father is no longer my father, I have long been sure.

It's a bit hard for me to answer the next question. "Where's my mother? Is she my biological mother?"

"She is your biological mother." Li Yanhua nodded and leaned against the back of the chair. "You are Long Zhiling and anotherborn of a man. "

My shoulders immediately relaxed. My mother's name is Long Zhiling, and she is my biological mother.

"Actually, how much do you know?" Li Yanhua asked, "Tell me what you know first."

I cleared my mind, and then said: "Li Guanghua was castrated during the Japanese invasion of China, but he was able toHe married my mother after the war, and I was born after their marriage, so I can't be him anywayhis own son. That's all I know. "

Li Yanhua nodded, then fumbled for his trouser pockets. After a while I handed him a cigarette and lit it for himfire. He took two puffs, put the hand holding the cigarette lightly on his forehead, looked at me and said, "Do you really want to listen?What I will say later may overwhelm you. "

"I'm mentally prepared." I said calmly.

"I am five years older than Li Guanghua, and I have been married since I was a child.We know each other because we are cousins. "Li Yanhua in the ashesThe soot was removed from the tank. "Although we are related by blood, our aptitudes are too far apart. He has beenA character who can do nothing well. Poor reading, small stature, lack of motor skills, lack of eloquence, poor appearanceConspicuous, the environment at home is not good. And I'm a typical intellectual. all that requires brainsThings that are in my hands are like getting something out of a bag. And my mother's relatives are a bit political, so IMy childhood is spent in an environment where I can give full play to my talents. Reading is a bit difficult for meNo. That is nothing more than memorizing the most essential parts of the things in the book by force. my GodI know how to use what I have learned in life, and I can read a lot of books in my spare time. I am willing to spend twice as much effort as others, and I also haveAmbition to break out into the outside world. So don't say use me to compare to my cousin, even if compared to other peersIt is also normal to appear prominent.

"After graduating from university, I obtained the civil servant qualification with honors, and I belonged to the diplomatic department. I have been a civil servant for ten yearsOfficer, I feel tired, and at the same time, I also met a wealthy businessman. He took a fancy to my talent and hoped that I couldTo be his secretary, the so-called second-in-command of the golden empire he built in the past. he was atThe era when the war just broke out already possessed huge power. It's amazing to be in your forties. then,I naturally resigned from my position and switched to the banner of this legend.

"At that time, the Japanese army's battle line had been extended to the core of mainland China, and at the same time, it was attacking with overwhelming momentum.Hongkong. But at that time there was not much threat to our empire. Sir -- my boss -- and HaiMany people in Japan and abroad have business contacts, and even several big leftist figures in Japan have friendship with him, so JapanAfter the Chinese army invaded Hong Kong, we were protected from being harassed by every plant and tree as if we were in a protective net. these suffered at the timeIn the eyes of the people in China, they are envious to death.

"However, while I was in Mr.'s protection net, my cousin was brutally treated by a Japanese officer.treat. Those Japanese soldiers like to do some cruel things in Hong Kong. There is no interest in things as long as you feel happyIt will also be done without hesitation.

"My cousin's name is "Guanghua". As I told you, that means "Everbright China". Those onesSomehow the soldiers knew the meaning of the name - presumably a Japanese translator heard my cousin's name.Let’s explain the words to the soldiers—in short, one of the officers laughed when he heard it, saying that in this situationHow can Chinese people "Everbright China"? So I took my cousin to the street like a demonstration, in front of many passers-byHe took off his pants in front of him, and cut off his lower body with a saber. "

I smiled and shook my head. What a humiliation that man suffered, I thought.

After seeing my reaction, Li Yanhua shrugged. "My cousin is such a miserable person. Quan XiangHow many people in Hong Kong have national spirit in their names? But only my cousin will suffer from it.His life is doomed to suffer from this nightmare, and that doesn't have to be calculated by fairness or not. Anyway, that's the way it is.After I heard the news, I saw that he was pitiful, so I asked my husband to take him in. His parents were dead by then, exceptI have no relatives other than me, and I have some responsibility for not protecting him before, so I can't leave him alone at this timeBar. Although Mr. can't see how useful my cousin is at all, he also sees my face and agrees to accept it.keep him. Later, my cousin took care of some chores for my husband, taking care of his daily life and so on.

"After two or three years like this, I have gained more and more trust from my husband, and he has regarded me as a confidant. And I myselfI am also quite satisfied with the treatment given to me by my husband. I have achieved more in the business world than when I was an official.These are all thanks to Mr. Even so, I am still very cautious around my husband, and every time I do somethingIt is also carefully planned, so as not to make mistakes and make all the previous efforts go to waste. sir is a flameA very big person, he is very strict with all his subordinates, and he is merciless when punishing a person. and hasThe tendency to like to vent your anger on others can be regarded as defiant. Of course he is different to me, but it doesn't mean he will be willingWilling to be highly tolerant of me.

"After the third year of the fall of Hong Kong, my husband and I once went to Taiwan for business. That trip made me feelA major change has taken place. I have been careful all my life and tried my best, but I also made a big mistake.That's why I can't stand up again. "

At this time, Li Yanhua and I's teacups were all dry. I pushed the cup aside, put my legs on the coffee table and continuedContinue listening to Li Yanhua's narration. Li Yanhua looked at my posture, smiled lightly, and then shook his head again. I askedWhat's wrong? He said nothing.

"When I went to Taiwan, apart from my husband and I, there were several other employees from the company who followed my husband.Li Guanghua, who went to serve, also accompanied him. After handling a lot of business in Taiwan, our group is preparing to return to Hong Kong.But the husband suddenly said that he wanted to stay for a while, and let the others go back first. I asked if I need to keep a few people with himside? He shook his head, leaving only Li Guanghua who had been serving him by his side, and the rest were recalled by him, and orderedI will be in charge of the overall situation in Hong Kong for the time being.

"As a result, Mr. stayed in Taiwan for more than four months. The night before returning to Hong Kong, he called me.Feeling very excited. I asked what happened? He asked me if I knew where Li Guanghua was now? i feel weirdStrange, ask him, didn't Li Guanghua stay in Taiwan with you? gentlemenAfter listening to it, I didn't say anything, just hung up angrily.Wire.

"At that time, I knew something must have happened, but I couldn't guess what it was. The number of days Mr.I haven't contacted me for a month, only sometimes telegram me to report that I'm safe and then give up. His family used toHe often grabs me and asks about my husband's whereabouts, but I don't know anything. Honestly, I'm not worried. FirstSheng is the emperor of our empire. Without him, many things have stagnated, and I can only rely on me to make doSustain. I know that if Mister disappears, the empire will collapse.

"Mr. returned to Hong Kong the next day. He didn't go home immediately, but rushed to my house and questioned me about Li Guanghua.Where. I said I really don't know, what happened? The husband was very angry and said that Li Guanghua had robbedhis woman. I laughed immediately after hearing this. Isn't that ridiculous? A humble and castratedHow could a failed man snatch a woman from his husband? But sir, no joke. He is serious. heIt was said that Li Guanghua had indeed robbed his woman, and that she was hiding somewhere.

"I told my husband to calm down and explain to me what's going on first. The gentleman said that he met in Taiwan.They met a girl, became deeply attracted to her, and soon they were on good terms. At that time he told us to go back to Hong Kong first,He wanted to stay with that girl by himself. They stayed in Taiwan for the next few months, Mr.He planned to take her to Hong Kong and take her as a concubine. But the girl didn't know from the beginning to the end whether her husband had a wife and children in Hong KongYes, thought he was celibate. When the husband offered to go back to Hong Kong with her, the girl strongly refused and said noWilling to be his concubine. The girl was only sixteen years old, and the husband was forty-three at that time, it can be said that they fell in love with each otherI met someone who had a completely different view of love from me. Later, they quarreled constantly over this matter, and the husband kept explaining that heI love her, but what's wrong with how many wives a man has? Just as long as you can afford it! The girl grew more and more frightened,It seems that the husband will force her to go to Hong Kong. In that era, what could money not do? then,One day she suddenly left without saying goodbye, and at the same time Li Guanghua disappeared.

"Of course, Li Guanghua met that girl countless times when he stayed with Mr.that's it. After the husband knew that they disappeared at the same time, he immediately thought that it was Li Guanghua who took the girl away. gentlemenHe asked me again and again whether I was hiding Li Guanghua? I smiled weakly and said, why am I hiding him? Mr. LeeGuanghua is my cousin, and he has no reason not to ask me for help in his current situation. I affirm that I have not seenHe has never seen that girl, and will try his best to help Mr. find them out from now on. After listening to Mr.He sneered and said that not only Li Guanghua and the girl betrayed him, but also me. I know he is very angry now, so I put thisThe responsibility for the incident was placed on me. In fact, if Li Guanghua really took the girl away, I am the most reasonableOne that is held accountable. Because Li Guanghua is my cousin, and I brought him in.

"Just as I was thinking about how to solve the matter, my husband told me that I don't need to work for him anymore.Want me to disappear from his empire immediately and forever. I patiently analyzed the whole thing to him and said it was useless to drive me awayYes, and doing so would cause him to lose important clues to find Li Guanghua. Mr. can't hear anything, thenThe girl had made him lose all reason. He said that Li Guanghua would look for him by himself, so I don't have any use value.No more, just tell me to get out. I don't believe these words came from Mr. He has always been a senseA big winner in love, he has married three wives at home, and there is no woman he can't get. he would do it forLost your mind with a sixteen-year-old girl? Drive the always right-hand man out of his empire? But whenWhen I looked into the eyes of my husband, I knew that things were not going to turn around, and he really wanted me to be a scapegoat. becauseBecause of my relationship, he lost his beloved woman; because the cousin I brought in robbed his beloved womanpeople.

"In the future, my husband not only drove me out like a dog, but also completely blocked my way to re-enter the business world.road. In this way, I was demoted back to the common people by my husband, and all the money and power disappeared without a trace. from the bottom of my heartAlthough I resent Mr. for treating me like this, I hate Li Guanghua's actions even more. Because of him, IThe second position in the business empire that came before has become worthless as it is now.

"Later, in order to make a living, I found a job as a teacher. At that time, the war was over and Hong Kong returned to peace.quiet. At this moment, Li Guanghua finally appeared in front of me with a pregnant girl.

"From the very first moment I saw that girl, I knew why my husband was so out of place. She was the one I sawThe most beautiful, attractive and radiant women ever. I've never paid much attention to the appearance of the opposite sex.It's like looking at a beautiful woman like dung. But even I can't help but sigh for the girl. If she was born in ancient times, she would beA stunner who is all over the country; even if she was born in modern times, it is enough to make all successful men say that she is a beauty.

"Of course, no matter how beautiful she is, it's none of my business. I just looked at her for a while, then stared at Li Guang again.magnificent. He bowed his head in shame, and introduced his wife, Long Zhiling, to me. I asked them lightly if they were marriedMarried? Li Guanghua nodded. I turned to ask Longzhi Lingzhi if she knew that her husband was a castrated man? LongzhiLing remained silent. Of course she knew, how could she not know. Because the man she loves so much haswife, and marry a birdless man? I don't understand anyway. I asked them againNot Mr.? They all nodded. I don't know what else to say. Even if I bet them first nowIn front of my husband, my husband will not accept me again. They are married, everything is settled.

"Li Guanghua sincerely apologized to me. He said that Long Zhiling wanted to avoid her husband's applause, so he took her to escape.gone. I believe that Li Guanghua was also bewildered by Long Zhiling's beauty. Knowing that I can't get along with her——Carry this burden for her. Li Guanghua also said that he had no intention of marrying her, but just fled back to Hong Kong with her.Only then did I find out that she was pregnant, and the child could not live without a father, so—”

Li Yanhua stopped talking here, and looked at me with a blank expression.

"You also know now that the child Long Zhiling was pregnant with was you." Li Yanhua said.

I quietly lit a cigarette, looked into the distance, and my thoughts flew to the distance.

"I don't know what their married life is like. But I can probably guess that they just liveLet's talk about two people who depend on each other. Long Zhiling is a country girl who grew up in Taiwan, her thoughts are naturally very simple; And Li Guanghua is also like a boy who has never grown up, and he will not be outstanding in his previous and next lives. ButThey can help and comfort each other in this relationship without even loving each other. Of course Longzhiling won'tShe fell in love with Li Guanghua, but she would definitely be grateful to him. How well Li Guanghua treats her, I think I can guess without askingcoming.

"However, I'm not a sentimental and righteous person. I just care about my own future. Whether they love each other or not,I have no interest in how much I have paid for the other party. But there's nothing I can do but tell them not to come out againnow before me. Thanks to them, I slid from heights to the ground, of course I have no extra compassion to gocare about their future lives.

"Although I never met my husband and Li Guanghua and his wife again, I occasionally got news from them. The warIn April of the following year after the end, you were born, and it was known that Li Guanghua named you Li Guanai. hey that canPoor man, he really regards you as his own son. Incapable of his own birth, he regards others asmy own.

"For many years, I have been hiding in a small middle school and living my teaching career. I only hope that things will cool down.You can return to the business world when you come. But Mr. has been sparing no effort to drive me away, blocking all opportunitiesventilation. On the other hand, I also know that my husband's karma is becoming more and more stable, and the empire has not survived without me.Affected - there may be a little, but how can outsiders see it - just like this, I can only sneakTo raise manpower, he has been plotting to make a comeback.

"In recent years, I've gotten old. Of course, my older husband is also old. The outside world has been speculating about hisA son would inherit his empire. Mr. has four sons, except for the younger son who is still studying, the rest are taking care of his fatherTake care of business. Just then, I thought of you. "

I nodded, knowing exactly what Li Yanhua was thinking.

"You are his own son, and you were born to his beloved woman. He will definitely recognize you. If youIf I can start with you, it is not impossible to return to that empire. Maybe you think I'm using you,But if you think about it, don't you want to go back to your original home? You grew up in resettlement areas all your life, poorIs the taste enough? You were originally a prince, but because your mother couldn't think about it for a while, you were degraded as a poor person. ifYou want to go back to that empire, and I'm the only one who can help you. I am familiar with the system inside and I know how to helpYou inherit the empire of Mr. Most importantly, you have this ambition yourself. You are unwilling to be ordinary, you are born smartYing, if we cooperate, no one will be our opponent except Mr. himself. "

I bent down, covered the lower half of my face with my hands, and kept silent.

"What are you thinking?" Li Yanhua asked.

"I'm excited." I slowly lowered my hand, with an evil and weird smile on my face. "So IThe real dad is such a character. I'm not a poor man, I'm a prince, I'm Ai Guan. I suddenly hate myselfSixteen years of life. My mom...was too much. She actually pushed me to grow up in such a harsh environment.But I don't mind anymore. I want everything back now. Starting today, I'm going to enter that empire. "

"I really didn't see the wrong person." Li Yanhua smiled with relief.

My blood is gradually boiling. When I knew that Li Guanghua was not my father, I was already glad that I was with himIt doesn't matter. And now, I am actually a proud child who will soon inherit a huge family fortune. i said earlierI am different. I have long said that I am different! I have the blood of nobility, not laborThe generation of mediocrity. I bit my fist lightly. No one can stop me anymore.

"What are we waiting for?" I asked Li Yanhua with a strange light in my eyes. "I know everything nowAlright, let's go back to that empire! "

"There are still several things to be resolved." Li Yanhua said after a moment of silence.

"What is it?"

"First of all, you have to break away from the father-son relationship with Li Guanghua." Li Yanhua carefully analyzed for me. "Although youHe is the son of Mr., but with his personality, he will definitely mind the current relationship between you and Li Guanghua. you can'tSo I will call Li Guanghua my father again. "

"What's so difficult about this?" I said without hesitation, "I haven't recognized him in my heart for a long time!"

"But he still exists."

theI lit a cigarette with a lighter, then threw the lighter on the coffee table. "Just kill him. My fatherJust want to prove my loyalty to him, right? Get rid of Li Guanghua and eradicate him from the world. "

"Can you do it?" Li Yanhua looked at me and asked.

"Why not? If it wasn't for him, my mother would have married my father long ago, and I could have been born in that family.This useless Li Guanghua wants to be my father? Does he deserve it? "

"Since you have made up your mind, there is only one problem left." Li Yanhua put his hand on my shoulderHe said to me: "Leave Zhang Hanyun. If you want to enter that empire, you must leave Zhang Hanyun."

My eyes suddenly became blank. "why?"

"Your real name is——Zhangguan Ai." Li Yanhua looked into my eyes and said clearly: "YouZhang You's father is Zhang You, and Zhang Hanyun is your sister. "

I was stunned for a few seconds, and then I suddenly felt churning in my stomach, and my thoughts were frantic, as if I had fallen into nowhere.bottom of the abyss. I recalled bits and pieces of the past one by one—the first time Lefeng and I sneaked into Zhang’s villa,The old lady Zhang greeted me with a smile to eat cookies, and the driver Ahua introduced me to the shy Hanyun and Hanyun in the park.Intense sex, rhyming in the theater pushing my hand up her skirt... I remembered the pranks I used to doTo write and direct an incest drama for Gao's mother and son. Little did I know at the time that I had already tried incest. me withown sister incest.

"So when I knew that you and Zhang Hanyun were a couple, I immediately asked you to stay away from Zhang's house."Li Yanhua said: "Do you know the reason now? I know you must have had incest with your sister a long time ago, that's why you want toYou stop in time, so you can't ruin the whole plan. Zhang You is what I call Mr. halfway through your birthA year later, his daughter was born. She is the only child younger than you in Zhang's family. "

I looked at Li Yanhua with a pale face.

"Forget it! It's unfortunate, but it's irreparable. What you want to think about now is how to break off with Zhang Hanyun.All relationships. You can't let the Zhang family know that you have done it. Otherwise - I don't really believe itHeart can get you into Zhang's house. "

"Ridiculous!" I waved my hand and shouted, "Hanyun is my sister—so what? I'm not afraid! She can't stopMine, can't stop me! I am Zhang You's son! I should inherit everything from him... Han Yun, Han YunYun, I don't know this person...she has nothing to do with me! "

Li Yanhua looked at me indifferently.

I stood up abruptly and said to him: "Everything is clear. Everything is going according to plan. Don't worry,From now on, there will be your place in my world. "Speaking, he snatched the door and left without staying for long.

It was already late at night when I got home. My body seemed to be empty, but my mind was extremely excited. i walk inIn the room, I saw Li Guanghua sitting in front of the folding table, holding a wine glass.

"Are you back?" He asked after seeing me.

I blankly looked around the small living room. "Where's my mother?"

"Sleep." Li Guanghua seemed a little strange to my question, but simply responded like this.

I nodded and walked to sit beside him. "You drink like this every night."

Li Guanghua raised his lips and smiled, looked at me and said, "Why are you so weird today? You talk too much."

"I haven't talked to you much." I took the empty wine glass from his hand and put it on the stage to replace it.He pours wine. "I want to talk to you more today."

"Okay." Li Guanghua laughed happily.

"Let's drink this one first." I pushed the wine glass in front of him.

Li Guanghua drank it all in one gulp with a smile. I nodded and said lightly, "Well, I'm a good drinker."

"How about you have a drink too?" Li Guanghua tried to ask.

I shook my head. "I still have something to say. I'm afraid I'll forget it when I'm drunk."

"What do you want to say? Come on, tell Daddy." Li Guanghua asked enthusiastically, turning his body to me.

"Zhang You wants to kill you." I raised my head and looked into his eyes. "do you know?"

Li Guanghua's body shook suddenly, he forced a smile and said, "What did you say?"

"You stole his woman, and you're coming to kill you." I frowned slightly, with a serious tone. "More than that.You even took away his son, and he wants you to die. "

Li Guanghua shifted his gaze to the stage, his lips trembling. When he faced me again, he couldn't speakclear. "You... have you seen him?"

I scratched my head and said thoughtfully, "No, I haven't seen him. But I know everything. Do you think you haveCan my mother hide in the resettlement area? Zhangyou's villa is nearby; he has already set his sights on you, and you can't escape no matter what.Do you know who Boss Ray is? Do you know how powerful he is? Such a fierce character is also led by Zhang You.Manipulated by big businessmen. If Zhang You wanted to kill you, it would be as simple as strangling a cockroach with a broken leg. "

"Why did you know? How did you know that Zhang You was going to kill me? Don't talk nonsense. You are my son, you can'tSay that to your dad. "

"You are still saying that I am your son." I smiled and said, "Maybe even you think so. It's a pityThis is not true. You should wake up. Remember twenty years ago when your bird was mowed? who you are notFather, nor anyone's husband. You're just a poor wretch who doesn't know the times and goes around offending people. "

When Li Guanghua heard my words, he froze in a daze, and after a while he said, "That's right.. Sometimes I wonder what happened to my forty-five years of life? what do i have leftin the world? The wife is not a real wife; the child is not mine; the only blood relation left is the cousin, butHe has treated me as if I did not exist. I think all I can keep is a honor that thanked God a thousand timesBar. God let me get along with Zhiling for more than ten years, that is the greatest achievement in my life. "

Li Guanghua burst into tears, but his expression was quite satisfied. I was disgusted when I looked at it. this manUnbelievably disgusting. It's just a rotten and smelly existence. "Have you finished? Very good. Just now IAs you listen, you wonder when you're going to stop talking. Ok, now it's time for me to talk. what i say to youlife is not interesting. I just ask you to disappear automatically. Anyway, please disappear. You go bury a hole and drill yourselfIt’s good to go down, it’s good to swim to the mainland, it’s good to find some mountain to mine coal for a lifetime—in short, just disappear for me.If you don't disappear, I will make you disappear. Understand? I have the power to make you disappear. you have meSixteen years, it's time to let go. Also, you'd better be quiet when you leave, so as not to disturb my mother. ifIf you take my mother anywhere again, I will kill you right away. "

Li Guanghua lowered his head and wiped his tears. Impatiently, I bent my neck and confirmed to him: "Did you hear me?Yet? If you understand, I won't talk to you anymore? Do yourself a favor. "After that, I left the house,Li Guanghua was left weeping alone.

When I came back the next morning, my mother just got up and knelt by the bed, looking at theLi Guanghua. I walked behind mom. After a long time, my mother turned her head and said softly to me, "Your father passed away."

I looked at Li Guanghua's face quietly. He died peacefully, as if he had accomplished what he should do in this world.Like things, just go back to the starting point.

After being sent to the hospital, it was concluded that he committed suicide by taking poison. He put the poison in the wine after I left the houseDrank it, then went to bed, and died of poisoning in his sleep.

Just like that, Li Guanghua died. Aged forty-five.

(Chapter 17) Fragrance disappears and jade dies

After Li Guanghua's death, my mother exhausted herself physically and mentally in order to raise money for the funeral. But she never fellShe didn't tear a single tear, she didn't say a single sad word, she just worked in an extremely calm and single-minded manner. I want to persuade her not toIt must be so troublesome for this man, but I can't think of a reason. I can't let mom know about Li GuanghuaDeath actually has a great direct relationship with me—in fact, in my eyes, all of this is nothing but the cycle of heavenly laws, all of which areProvidence.

In the end, I couldn't help but give my mother a helping hand. With her as a woman, how much money can be raised?If you ask someone to borrow it, all they can give you is a few words of comfort. Besides, what she has done in the past ten yearsThe people I know and have friendship with are only poor people, and they have no real use value at all. I do notI hope to see my mother will show a pitiful look of helplessness, so I hand over the money I have earned over the past year toIn the hands of Li Yanhua, I entrusted him to give it to my mother as silk money.

Of course my mother was surprised when she saw Li Yanhua's appearance, but she immediately calmed down again. I'm cold-eyedWatch without saying a word.

"Uncle." My mother called him that. "This time, if you are willing to help us, the little girl will have nothing to repay."Li Yanhua is nearly 20 years older than my mother, and he already has an extraordinary status, so my mother still calls herselfIt is not surprising that it is a "little girl".

"It's nothing." Li Yanhua said indifferently, "In the end, it's all about relatives."

"Guan Ai." Mom turned to me and said, "He is your cousin, thank you soon."

"Thank you, Uncle Tang." I said calmly.

I am deeply disappointed. Li Guanghua died, but my mother still planned to lie to me and not tell me the truth.The one in front of me is not a cousin at all, but a partner who conspired with me to kill Li Guanghua.

"I will attend the funeral on the day of the funeral." Li Yanhua said, "After Guanghua rests, sister-in-law, I have something to say to you.you say. "

My mother raised her face to look at Li Yanhua, and finally nodded.

In this way, my money plus the several hundred yuan pension entrusted by the company where Li Guanghua worked before his death, the funeral directorIt can be held casually. In addition to Li Guanghua's boss and several colleagues, Mrs. Lin was present.The Tai family and Li Yanhua. It had been drizzling that day, and the humidity in the mourning hall was very heavy, and I had a rash on my back.Uncomfortable sweating. My mother and I knelt and sat on the family seat and guarded. I just want this boring ritual to be over soon.

Le Ci, who came during the period, cried quietly twice, and Le Feng's face also lost the usual anger and becameWooden. Mrs. Lin said to Le Ci: "Although you are not from the Li family, you have an engagement with Guan Ai.Before going forward, give the prospective father-in-law a stick of incense, asking him to bless you and your husband. "

Le Ci nodded, and stepped forward to give Li Guanghua some incense. At this time, I stood up, walked up to Le Ci and said: "no need. "

Le Ci held the incense candle in his hand, looked at me inexplicably, then turned to look at Mrs. Lin.

Mrs. Lin helped to speak, and said softly to me: "Guan Ai, this is just a wish from our Lin family."

"Xin Ling." I gently took the incense candle from Le Ci's hand and put it aside. "Leci, sit backGo ahead, don't do this kind of thing. "

At this time, my mother said softly: "Guan Ai, Le Ci is just out of kindness, don'tso. "

"As I said, don't use it." I said emphatically, and then looked at Leci. "Aren't you going to sit back?"

Le Ci lowered her head for a long time, then turned around silently, and sat back beside Mrs. Lin.

I also went back to my mother and knelt down. Afterwards, Le Ci kept sneaking glances at me, so I had no choice but to pretendinvisible. I don't know how to explain to her: I don't let you twist the incense, just because Li Guanghua is not my father at all,Not that I will not marry you. She was going to salute her father-in-law, and it should be to Zhang You, not to Li Guanghua.

My mother—until now, she still regards Li Guanghua as my father.

After the ceremony, Li Guanghua's body was cremated to ashes. My mother held the ashes and stood with me outside the door to see off the guests.When Le Ci came to my side, he gently shook my hand. "Guan Ai, my condolences and my condolences."

I looked at her quietly, then nodded slightly.

"When you're done with your work, come to me. Don't worry about me." Le Ci said again.

"I will."

Le Ci wanted to say something more, but in the end she just sighed softly and left with her family.At this time, my mother said to me: "You take this first, uncle cousin has something to say to mother."

I saw Li Yanhua standing aside and did not leave. I saw Mom was going to give me the ashes poppies in her hand,Although I was very reluctant, I still took it and held it in front of my chest with one hand.

Mom went to Li Yanhua's side, and the two stood under the canopy talking. Li Yanhua put his hands in his trouser pockets,It was he who was talking and my mother was listening. After a long time, my mother shook her head, not knowing what to say in response. Li Yanhua toI took a look here, then said one more word to my mother, then turned and left.

While holding Li Guanghua's ashes in my hands, I began to loathe myself. I hate myself being "Li GuanghuaThe identity of "son" is being dragged away, I hate that I have to pay for this unknown funeral, I hate myselfStill haven't become a member of the Zhang family, and even more disgusted that he has to stand in the rain with this troublesome son in his arms.

When my mother walked back to me, I handed the ashes back to her without saying a word. she didn't notice meThe idea, just take it over naturally. "Guan Ai, let's go home."

I nodded.

The rain suddenly turned fierce that night, and only the sound of dripping rain could be heard in the dark. Mom goes to bed early, andI just lay in my hammock and smoke. The planks of the house rattled now and then, and the strong wind from the terrace blewThe tongue of flame in the oil lamp flickered from side to side. I don't know if Mom is pretending to be asleep, but I don't know what to do in this environment.can't sleep. It's not because it's too early, or because it's raining heavily outside, but because a new baby has been added to the houseA shrine is placed in the hall downstairs, on which are Li Guanghua's photos and ashes. it all makes my head godThe sutras are tensed, and the consciousness is numb and motionless.

How good would it be if I could take a wooden stick and go downstairs and destroy everything?

After smoking a few cigarettes and reading "Nie Yinniang" bought at the bookstall for a while, the clock on the table was displayingIt's ten twenty. I put down the book and walked to my mother's bed. I saw her eyelids closed gently, but her breath was faintly breathless.No, you know she didn't sleep soundly. I gently pulled the other side of the quilt and slid into the fuckLie down on your side.

After a while, my mother casually opened her eyes and asked me softly, "Guan Ai, what's wrong?"

I covered Mom with the quilt. "Mom, I have something to tell you."

"It's getting late, can we talk about it tomorrow? Mom wants to have a good sleep."

"Do you feel lonely? Mom."

"Why do you ask that?" Mom coughed lightly.

"You have spent half your life working on this family, but you have never been happy. Now that Li Guanghua is gone, you plan toLive like this for a lifetime? Why don't you start a new page in your life? "

"I don't understand why you said that." Mom looked at me fixedly. "Besides, you shouldn't call your father's name,He is your father. "

"I know he's not." I said word for word, "Li Guanghua is not my father."

Mom pursed her lips, then pulled the quilt around her neck, and closed her eyes. "Stop talking nonsense, gosleep. "

I touched Mom's face in pain. "Why are you still lying to me?"

Mom didn't open her eyes, but her lips were trembling, and there were tears in her eyes.He cried out, but his voice was choked with sobs. "Don't say it...don't say it."

"Mom." I sat up and grabbed Mom's twitching shoulders. "Mom! You lied to me so hard, don't you knowKnow? You also deceive yourself very hard, do you know that? For more than ten years, because of your lie,Push my mother and son into this kind of life. Why do you want me to live with a strange man for more than ten years? what isSell ​​your soul? "

"Did I sell my soul?" Mom suddenly opened her eyes blurred from crying, and looked at her in disbelief.I. "Think about it for yourself, did I betray myself or did you betray yourself? You follow our couple's tenWhat have you learned over the years? I didn't teach you that way, and your father didn't teach you that way—"

"I already said that he is not my father!" I hoarse my throat and growl. "I am Zhang You's son, he ismy father! You too. You are not Li Guanghua's wife, but Zhang You's wife! mom, wake upgood or not? "

Mom covered her mouth with all her might and burst into tears. "You know...you know everything...""How long do you think you can fool me? The blood of the Zhang family is flowing on my body. I will know this sooner or later.everything. Mom... son please..." I grabbed my head with both hands. "Will you give me my life back?Don't give me away to others. "

Mom couldn't say anything more, she just cried bitterly. I sat hunched over the edge of the bed with my hair pulled backAfter that, he closed his eyes and was speechless.

After a long time, Mom stopped crying a little bit, and said pantingly, "Li Yanhua... your cousin, just nowIt was only after the funeral that I asked if I wanted to return to Zhang's house. I refused. I said that I only hope to have two mothers like Guan AiThe son lived a good life and ignored everything else. I know that Li Yanhua just wants to use me—”

I turned my head abruptly, interrupted her and said, "No, you have to listen to him this time."

Mom looked at me in astonishment, and then smiled, revealing the sneer that first appeared on her face when I saw her."Eighteen years ago, I didn't listen to Yugo; I don't even need to listen to his subordinates now."

"Why - that's my father!" I shouted impatiently. "Mom, do you remember the pastthing? Do you remember how you were with Zhang You? He is your husband, and your son is me.Why do you insist on getting out of his life and taking me with another man? I am the son of the Zhang family, do you understand?That would have been who I was. "

Mom looked at me sadly and shook her head slowly. "Unexpectedly, the hard work of Guanghua and I for more than ten years has all been in vain.water. We work hard to raise you and teach you, and want you to learn to be a gentleman, but you have never been infectedPass. In your heart, there is only glory and wealth. "

"Ah? That's right." I widened my eyes. "Because I am Zhang You's son, I resemble him. ButWhy don't you think about it the other way around, if you married Zhang You in a good way, I would be able to grow up in a normal environment.long. The Zhang family has everything I need, will I still use it to be mean and shameless? I will only do what suits meThe locality gave full play to its strengths and created a legend in my life. "

Mom looked away helplessly, and after a long time, she whispered to me tentatively, "Guan Ai, let's go.Mom is Taiwanese, so you don't belong here either. You and I go back to Taiwan to live, and our mother and son start anew.We don't care about gold, silver and jewelry, wealth and splendor. Mom won't drop you, I will take care of you all my lifeTake care of you. "

I leaned back and looked at Mom from a distance. I saw her look eager, but I only feltheartache. Want me to be flat? Have you been to Taiwan for the remaining decades? What can I get then?

Looking at my expression, my mother already knew to persuade me not to move. Her tears seeped out again, and said helplessly: "What do you want from your mother? I will not leave you, you are my flesh and blood. But you only love the glory and wealth, never closeI'm sorry for my mother's feelings. "

"Marry Zhang You." I said softly, "Don't say goodbye to your destiny, you want to marry Zhang You. Youlove him, right? You have only loved one man in your life, and that is not Li Guanghua, but Zhang You. Li Guanghua diesNow, it is also time for our real family reunion. "

"Youge already has three wives, do you know?" Mom shook her head and said, "Some of his children are older than me,do you know? At this moment, how could Brother You marry me? He is old and so am I. "

"He will definitely marry you." I said and grabbed Mom's hand. "You're not old. Even if you were, DadI still love you. He was heartbroken because of your departure back then, and even sent Li Yanhua away, so you know how much he loves youdeep. Over the years, he has loved no one but you. "

I don't love anyone, only you. The words lingered in my mind.

After hearing my words, Mom's tear-stained face flushed. This is the first time in my lifeMom blushes. This look is so beautiful, I can't help but look dull.

A woman is always the most beautiful at the moment of emotion.

In the heart of my mother, Long Zhiling, there has been only one man for more than ten years. That's the myth inside her, justIt was at the age of sixteen that she met a charming nemesis who made her fall in love. She puts herself firstDedicated to him this time, she will never be able to match him.

She didn't want to marry him before because of her teenage feelings, and she longed for a man to have only her as a woman in his life;Now, she understands that a man's heart is originally designed for multiple women, the most powerful man is also the most powerfulThe weakness is that I can't stop myself from being tempted by different women. Because my mother understood this, she alsoBecause of me, I finally changed the decision I made more than ten years ago.

No woman can fool me in front of me.

When I told Li Yanhua that my mother had agreed, his reaction was not surprised, but it seemed that it had been plannedNodding like a step. I asked him. "My dad's side, is there a way for you to get in touch?"

"Of course. Although we haven't been in touch for many years, it's still very easy to find each other."

"Then it's up to you to find it. It's not convenient for me to show up as his daughter's boyfriend."

"Of course." Li Yanhua looked at my face. "The last step is left."

"That's right." I took a breath, nodded and said, "The last step."

"When you've got everything done, I'll act. Then it will be the day when the two of us step into the empire."Li Yanhua smiled and said, "Ah, no, there are three of them. I think I missed your mother."

"Her purpose is not here." I fiddled with the lighter and lit itThe tongue hits and turns off. "My mother and the fairyIt's no different, she can live any kind of life, and she won't covet the Zhang family's wealth. she just treats my daddyThe love is not over, but willing to take me to marry. "

"That's why I want you to lobby her." Li Yanhua put a cigarette in his mouth with a smile, then tilted his headIn front of my lighter. I light a cigarette for him. He leaned back, exhaled a puff of smoke and said, "I told herIf she said that, she would only feel that everything was tied to money, and of course she would not be persuaded. "

"The power of a mother's love is great, and the power of a child's love is also indispensable." I said, "That's how I succeeded."

"Have you figured out how to tell Zhang Hanyun?" Li Yanhua asked, "Remember, she will definitely play this move.Be more careful. Your relationship with her is the Achilles' heel of this operation. We've delayed our plans for so long,It's because of her. Once it is not done well, there is no need to say anything. "

"I understand."

"When did you make an appointment to meet her?"

"A little while." I lit a cigarette. "Have dinner with her."

"Then I'll celebrate with champagne here alone!" Li Yanhua said with a smile. I have rarely seen him so happy."I have confidence in you, and it will be a success. We will have a busy life in the future." He said and pattedWith a single hand, he looked satisfied.

At exactly seven o'clock in the evening, I was wearing a "Saint Laurent" suit given to me by Zhang You before, standing in a high-end hotel.The front of the restaurant and so on contain rhyme. Soon, the European car carrying Han Yun stopped in front of him, and after Han Yun got off the car, the car was goneAnd went, and didn't stop around.

"Won't the car come back to pick you up?" I asked.

"No, we're going to go shopping after dinner." Han Yun kissed me on the mouth as soon as we met. "youI haven't shown up for a long time, I want to die. "I didn't tell her about Li Guanghua's death, so she naturally didn't know about my recent death.What is the child up to.

"I will accompany you well today."

"A liar!" Han Yun laughed, and then took my hand into the restaurant.

During the whole meal, I only ate very little, and I didn't say anything. I just kept staring in front of me.The rhyme of Lele dining. Han Yun smiled and asked: "What are you doing? My face is blooming? Why do you keep staring at me?"

"You are so beautiful." I said.

"Then why haven't you looked for me for so long? Let me see, you didn't miss me." Han Yun said againA small piece of fish is delivered to the mouth.

"I've been thinking about you these days." I picked up the wine in front of me and took a sip. "You've always been melittle princess. "

"I don't want to be a little princess." Han Yun pursed her lips and murmured. "I want to be your wife."

I tilted my head and smiled. "What's the matter with you today?"

"Is there something wrong with me?" Han Yun asked me back with a smile.

"It seems to be more enthusiastic than before." I leaned forward and asked with a smile, "Are you flirting?"

"You're the one who gets mad!" Han Yun smiled and hit me aggressively.

I smiled, but my eyes were still inseparable from watching Hanyun. She - is my sister, I feel againthis fact. The girl in front of me who has had sex with me no less than a hundred times is my sister.

I asked her jokingly. "Have you ever thought about—in fact, your daddy is not really your daddy?"

"What do you mean?" Han Yun opened her eyes wide.

"That is to say, you are not his own. What will happen to you then?"

"If so—" Han Yun raised her eyes and thought about it. "I want you to marry me immediately. Daddy won't raise meI, I rely on you to support me! "

I smiled thoughtfully. How nice would it be if all my hypotheses came true? I will really stand thenMarry her immediately, because she is no longer Zhang You's daughter.

"Why are you asking that?" Han Yun said.

"It's nothing. I just think it's quite interesting." I said with a casual smile.

"What's so interesting? Because I'm not Daddy's daughter? You're black-hearted, you're cursing me as a bastard." HanYun pretended to laugh angrily.

"You're not a bastard, and neither am I." I lowered my head and scratched the tip of my nose, smiling, "What a pity?"

After dinner, we took a walk on the nearby secluded beach. Han Yun took off her high heels and walked on the shallow seashore, occasionallyThen kick up the water splash to play. I just walked beside silently, putting my hands in my pockets.

"I heard from the news," Han Yun said suddenly, holding my arm with both hands. "The resettlement area where you live nowDemolition is planned. "

"I know." I untied my tie, took it off and put it in my bag. "My family has been notified."

"What do you plan to do then?"

I didn't say a word, I just reached out and hugged Han Yun's shoulders.

Han Yun put her whole body against me and said softly, "Why don't we get married?"

We stopped at the same time, and I turned to look at her.

"I know I've just turned sixteen, but my daddy won't object. People in their generation got married early, and IThey can do the same. When we get married, you can move in with your parents. I will take it wellserve them. "

I couldn't say a word, I could only look at Hanyun with my mouth tightly shut.

Han Yun looked at me with expectant eyes, and suddenly came up to kiss my mouth. I unconsciously kissed her fiercelyCome on, put one hand on her buttocks and press her against me.

We rubbed together like this for a long time, until the two of us couldn't breathe properly, so we separated our four lips. herThe face is very close to me, I justHer eyes could be seen twinkling. She pleaded: "Ai Guan, let's get married.okay, okay? "

I let her go slowly, and then looked at the waves rushing by my feet and said, "I can't marry you."

Han Yun heard my words, but she wasn't as excited as expected. She just raised her face to the sky sadly, holding backTry not to let the tears fall.

After a while, she looked at me again and said, "Is it because of her?"

"Her?" I asked in confusion.

"The girl who lives next door to you." Han Yun lowered her eyes as she said.

I was stunned for quite a while, but then I realized that Han Yun must have sent someone to investigate my life in the resettlement area.I even knew how many women I slept with, so I gradually calmed down. "Yes, just because sheBar. Her name is Leci. "

"I know, I know!" Han Yun howled. "You don't have to tell me this, I know everything!Ever since I was with you, I know that you have many girlfriends, and Lin Leci is your favorite. you have with herMarriage right? So you don't want to marry me, right? I originally thought that no matter how bad I was, I could sit on an equal footing with her,Little did you know that in your heart my position is so far from hers. "

"Han Yun, you know how I treat you."

"You treat every woman the same, you just want to have sex with different women! What Lin Leci,I know everything about Lin Lefeng and Wang Dingding! "

"Since you have found someone to investigate so thoroughly, why do you want to marry me?" I turned around and looked atRoad from afar.

Han Yun suddenly fell silent. I was waiting for her response, but she was speechless for a long time. I can't help turningLooking at her, she saw that she was hanging her hands and clenched her fists, looking extremely embarrassed.

She knew I was looking at her, so she stared at the ground and whispered, "Because I have your child."

I seem to hear and seem not to hear. I took two steps forward, grabbed her elbows and asked, "What did you say?"

"Child." Han Yun raised her face, her eyes filled with tears. "I have your baby. It's been two months."

I let her go anywhere, stepped back, touched my mouth with one hand, but couldn't say a wordCome.

Han Yun groaned, stepped forward and pulled me. "Ai Guan, do you know? You are going to be a father. I haveour children. You——if you want to marry Lin Leci, I can also obey you, but can you marry me?I don't mind if you have two wives, as long as I can marry you. "

"No!" I hurriedly threw her hand away. "Kill him!"

"What?" Han Yun narrowed her eyes and said puzzledly.

"Kill him, kill the child!" I cried out in grief.

"No, I won't..." Han Yun shook her head in a panic. "That...that's our child, I don'tWill kill him... no! "

I grabbed Han Yun with all my strength, and my thoughts were frantic. "I told you to kill him, hear? You can't give birth to himCome on, I will never let you give birth to him! "

Crying with rhyme. "Why do you want me to give up my child? Why? The child did nothing wrongWell... I don't follow... I don't follow! "

"Because I'm your brother!" I said this suddenly, without expecting it. "Got it? IIt's your brother! Zhang You is my father and our father! My surname is Zhang, I am not Li Guanai, but Zhang Guanai! "

Zhang Hanyun's face suddenly turned pale, and she looked at me like she was looking at a monster. "What did you say?"

"I only found out about this recently." I suddenly calmed down, my mind went blank. rhyme difficultlooking at me, biting his lower lip.

I started to tell her everything that happened in the past. Said how our father met my mother, after my motherHow did I leave him, how Li Guanghua brought my mother to Hong Kong, how I was kept in the dark by them, etc.It's all clear. Han Yun cried out sadly while listening, completely unable to accept the fact that I am her brother.

"I didn't lie to you. Even I, Ai Guan, can't make up such a lie, because it's 100% true."

Han Yun sat down on the ground, crying and screaming. "Ai Guan, you killed me, you killed me! How can youSeducing my own sister to have sex with you... I can't go anywhere right now. You're a villain, I hate you,I hate you! "

I didn't feel much about Han Yun's accusations against me. "I said I didn't know it, butYou can blame me if you want. I just ask you to kill the baby in your stomach. "

Han Yun fell on the sand and cried for a while, then she calmed down and said slowly: "I won't kill himof. "

"I - I want you to kill him right away." I closed my eyes and said again and again impatiently.

"Ai Guan, we still have hope, do you know?" Han Yun stood up from the ground in embarrassment, limping and turningHe approached me slowly, but his eyes were full of life. "You marry me, and I give birth as usual. NowDaddy doesn't know you are his son yet, you just have to act like you don't know anything... By the way, your mother andDoes that Li Yanhua know about this? ——It doesn't matter, we want them to shut up, so thisThings will always be a secret. Are you trying to buy them off with money? I can raise it... I will find a way to raise itCome. As long as they don't say...as long as they don't say..."

I looked at the flustered girl in front of me, and simply said: "No way. Your father is my father,I must recognize him. "

Han Yun looked at me suspiciously. "why?"

"I want to enter the Zhang family, I want to be the eighth son of the Zhang family." I said it clearly.

"You can also enter Zhang's house!" Han Yun cried loudly again, her tone almost scolding. "you marryYou are also the son-in-law of the Zhang family without me, so what else can you not get? You want money, money, powerPower requires women to have women! "Hanyun cried and hit me. "You villain, you only care about your own interests,Never imagined for me. Are you content now? You got what you wanted, you can finally use me to step into chapterhome! "

I firmly grasped Han Yun's hand, pulled her in front of me, and glared at her. "I'm a scum—so what?"

Han Yun was so frightened that I couldn't make a sound. After a while, she said softly, "I must give birth to this child."

"No." I warned her.

"I will." Hanyun stared at me fearlessly.

"You are an idiot for giving birth to him!" I said angrily, "Because we are siblings and close relatives! YouWhy don't you understand? My Ai Guan's child can't be an idiot, do you understand? Idiots are not people, you understand?If you give birth to this idiot, I'll throw him out the window with one hand! "

Han Yun looked at me in amazement, the sadness in her eyes seemed to be extreme. Her eyes are telling me about todayAll sadness, helplessness, anger, fear, disappointment. Her expression suddenly disappeared without a trace from her face, onlyHe said to me in a very soft voice, "Let me go."

I let her go without saying a word.

She slowly left in the direction behind me. I turned my head and looked at her back, only to see that she was also at about the same time.Turn around for a while. "Ai Guan, will you miss me?" She said weakly.

Many words were stuck in my throat, but I couldn't say a word. I can only nod my head slightly.

"Then," Han Yun's eyes were empty as if they had no eyeballs. "Please miss our children too."

She gently dropped this sentence like a fragile glass bottle, then turned around again, aloneWalk to the other end of the beach until the figure is submerged in bottomless darkness.

I went to a nearby phone booth to call Li Yanhua, and he immediately picked up the phone. i'm nervous about himHe firmly warned: "An accident happened to Han Yun, you should inform my father immediately."

No matter how smart Ren Li Yanhua is, it's impossible for him to realize what I mean in the first place. "what?"

"I told her everything, she is going to commit suicide now."

Li Yanhua fell silent. He must have been spinning his head at high speed analyzing the whole thing. Soon, he openedHe said, "Why did it happen like this?"

"She was overly sad." I simply said.

"We don't need to inform Master Zhang—" After a while, he fully understood. "Yes, I will informhe. Anyway, he didn't know how to save his daughter. "

"That's it." I hung up the microphone vigorously, and then curled up in the narrow room unbearably.In the phone booth, my chest seemed to be squeezed by something.

In the early morning of the next day, someone found Han Yun's body by the seaside of a certain pier. At that time, Li Yanhua and I had alreadySitting with Zhang You in his villa, waiting for news. When he got the call, we rushed to the pier immediately. Zhang YoukanLooking at her daughter's corpse, she couldn't hold on to her strong image anymore, and she burst into tears.

"Father." I also shed tears and whispered to him, "I'm sorry."

Li Yanhua was monitoring Zhang You's movements.

Zhang You looked at me, as if filled with emotion, the past turned into a pile of dust. After a long time, his eyes once againAfter recovering, look at Hanyun again. "Poor child." She pressed her face against Han Yun's, crying sadly.

My father didn't blame me, I think he was blaming himself. I can see from this incident that Li Yanhua isWhat a man.

He is the kind of person who can lie anytime and anywhere and convince the other party of his lies. he is only on the phoneAfter asking me a few words, I knew exactly how the matter was to be resolved, and how the story was to be made up.He called Zhang You, told him that I was his son, and said that I had just explained this matter to Han Yun, butHan Yun couldn't accept it, so she ran away suddenly.

Then I desperately searched for Hanyun, and at the same time informed him that he should tell Zhang You about this, and ask him to help find him together.Find Han Yun's whereabouts. But the sky is big and the earth is big, and I deliberately let Han Yun go, how do we find it?

Until Han Yun was found, she had turned into a corpse.

Of course, this is not a recorded statement to the court. I don't need to explain all the details to Zhang You.I just need him to believe that I am innocent and that I want to save Hanyun—that's fine. Zhang You himself has no moreTry to carefully analyze whether the whole thing is fraudulent.

Just like that, I killed my sister and child with my own hands. Zhang Hanyun disappeared from the world at the age of sixteenage.

(Chapter 18) Life is like a play

The Zhang family has a funeral, so it is inconvenient to take a concubine and marry a daughter-in-law in the short term. My dad told us that he would pick us up in half a yearEnter Zhang's house. During this period, he bought my mother and son an independent three-story thousand-foot ocean house on the site of Prince Dorian.room temporarily. Lying on the big bed in the open and bright bedroom, I feel that my soul has returned to my bodyinside, no longer likeHunger and cold like before, wandering around.

This piece of land is an asset under my mother's name. In just a short period of time, she has become a landlord with a violent family background.Lift.

Life is like a play. A year ago, my mother, Li Guanghua and I were huddled together in a wooden house to eat fermented bean curd with pickled vegetables.Bathing in cold water in winter (if there is no water system), now my mother's net worth is over a million. Said that a woman's life is good,Just marry well. If my father hadn't met my mother in Taiwan, there would be no such person as Ai Guan in the world.There is no subsequent family history. God creates opportunities, and I, Ai Guan, create destiny. mine, i finallyWill take it back too.

My father already knew that I didn't go to school anymore. At that time, I was still his son-in-law. he is rightI said, "There are two kinds of people in the world. The first type is the successful people who have been cultivated by society.The social form is protected, and finally achieves success on the right path; the other is abandoned by society at birth, unable toReceive a formal education, but in the end you can rely on your own talents to climb to a high position. Ai Guan, you don't need to go straightway, so there is no need to take a degree. What you need is to give time, just like I did back then. "

"This point of view is the truth ." I said.

Now that I am his son, he still instills this concept in me. He didn't treat his other sons likeHe didn't ask me to continue my studies, but asked me to learn how to take over his business as soon as possible.

"I admire Li Yanhua." My father thought for a while, and said to me, "I can pretend that the things in the past never happened.Just tell him for me - don't try to mess with my empire - Don 't fuck me. You telltell him. He wants to use you to return to Zhang's house, which is his strength, but it doesn't mean that I will let him succeed.For more than ten years, I have been able to make him stand outside the door of the business world and not be able to step in, and I can do the same today. ifIf you think he can help you, and if you don't mind his hard work, he can belong to your sect. In fact,He is a talent, and it will do you no harm if you can control it well. "

When I listened, I sighed with emotion in my heart. My father was also above Li Yanhua from the beginning to the end, butJust missed him once. If he had seen through Li Yanhua's plot earlier, Hanyun might not have been caught by the two of us.kill.

Immediately, I begged my father to take Li Yanhua back under my family again.

I can't enter the empire to handle affairs now, because there are many rituals that have not been completed. But Li Yanhua hasStart to obtain a lot of information from the empire, and then follow me to arrange future actions in the business world.

While I was actively working on my future plans, my mother lived an extremely peaceful life. like the migrationIt’s like the wooden house in the home area has been moved to this bungalow intact, her mood and temperament are still intact.Change. In the past, she was not necessarily downcast when she was in the resettlement area, and she is not necessarily extravagant now. she just takes care ofThe role in my life is not affected by the environment at all.

She seldom goes out at home, and mostly sits in the living room in a daze. She often rests her elbows on the handles of chairs,Holding his forehead, he seemed to be asleep but not awake.

My mother didn't know about Hanyun and I, let alone that I had been with Zhang You's daughter for a while. IDidn't tell her about it, and neither did Dad. I still remember that when my father went to the resettlement area to look for my mother, my motherPeople collapsed.

Dad didn't hug my mom as tightly as I imagined, he just looked at his former lover with extremely complicated eyes. That isIt happened more than ten years ago, now my father is 60 years old, and my mother is 33 years old. But seeing them both at the same time,I don't think they're like father and daughter or anything. It's not that my father looks young, nor does it mean that my mother looks old,But from the bottom of my heart, I feel that they are people of the same age. They have all gone through a lot of wind and frost, and walked a lot.The twists and turns, only to meet again today.

It didn't take long for my mother's tears to flow down, unable to clear up. My father sat in front of the stage, facing the ground gentlysigh. Mom hurriedly looked for a teapot and cup to make tea, but I stopped her and helped her to Dad's side, and thenWent to make two cups of tea for them.

"You didn't come to see me in the end." Dad raised his eyes and looked at Mom's face. "To this day, I have been looking foryours. "

Mom just cried.

As soon as Dad looked up, he suddenly saw Li Guanghua's spirit seat. Dad stood up slowly and walked to the front of the altar. MahodiraHold his hand. "No... Brother Yu, Guanghua is dead..."

Dad gently moved Mom's hand away, and then looked at Li Guanghua's soul photo with puzzled eyes. half an hour, heTurning around, he asked, "Zhi Ling, do you love him?"

Mom didn't know how to answer, so she just covered the lower half of her face with her hands and kept crying.

"Finally, Li Guanghua knows what's going on, and he ended it on his own, saving me a lot of work." Father said and bowed slowly to the LingtaiHe bowed three times and said, "Thank you for raising Ai Guan for more than ten years. He will no longer be your son in the future. Rest in peaceBar. "

I lit a match and lit a cigarette, leaning against the wall, speechless.

Dad looked around the room for a while. "For many years, Li Guanghua led you to live here?"

I held the cigarette to my lips, and nodded lightly.

"Zhi Ling, pick up your things—just take your documents and the like—I'll take you to the hotel first, and then I will order you to be safe.arrange your dwelling places. "

It sounds like an order. I love it so much.

Mom didn't move, she just shook her head. "Yuge...you don't blame me?"

the"What's your fault?" Dad asked calmly.

"Over the years, I haven't seen you, let alone let you see Guan Ai."

"I'll make it up." Dad nodded as he spoke. "I'll make it up."

Later, the residence that father mentioned was to buy a piece of land for mother with a thousand-square-foot bungalow.

Now my father occasionally comes up to Prince Edward's house to see us. My mother cooked the meal, and then our familyThree people eat at the dinner table. Although my mother showed no abnormal behavior, I knew she was satisfied in her heart.But whenever Dad said that we would move to Zhang's mansion in the future, my mother's face would become gloomy.

"After Ai Guan's grandmother came home, she has mentioned it many times, asking me to pick you up quickly." Father said: "Recently, her mood has recovered a lot, so she wants to meet her own grandson. "

"What's the matter with your mother?" Mom asked Dad.

"No, it's just that things aren't going well at home lately." Dad didn't want to mention Hanyun more. "It's over, you still chooseCome someday. Let's take a look first, and then officially pass the door. "

Mom nodded silently.

"Ai Guan, what do you think?" Father asked me.

"Of course it's good to go back," I said after a pause, "That's my mother and I's home, and we'll go back one day.But, apart from you and grandma, I don't think the people there welcome my mother and son very much. "

Father put down the bowls and chopsticks, looked at me, said quietly, "I am the owner of the Zhang family, and this family is managed by me.built by hand. No one can have a problem with me there. "

"But what about me and my mother?"

"After you move back, you will be a family. Of course, it is not easy to gain a foothold in the new family, butYour identities are equal, and I will not favor anyone. You are my son, and you have the same surname as Zhang. "

"If they are fine, of course mom and I are fine." I smiled. "Choose an auspicious day,My mother wants a name. "

Mom just kept silent.

Dad nodded, and picked up the bowls and chopsticks to eat again. "Ai Guan, I heard that you have an untrained student in the resettlement area.wife? "

My heart was shocked, and then I nodded as if nothing had happened.

Dad looked at me for a while, then said, "Let's eat first, and I'll talk to you later."

After dinner, Mom went back to the kitchen to wash the dishes (she insisted on not hiring a servant), and Dad walked out on the balcony with me. heGave me a cigar. After I took it, I lit each other's cigars with a lighter. the one with the cigarPointing to the direction outside the street with one hand, he said, "The front is the resettlement area where you used to live."

"Yes, not too far."

"If this house is demolished and a tall building is built, then we can clearly see over there."Dad said and looked at me. "Now this land belongs to you and your mother, and you can use it as you like in the future."

"I think, my mother would rather live in this house safely." I said with a smile, "The whole floor of the house will be demolished."Building high-rise buildings, selling units to make money--my mother would never have dreamed of these things. "

"I know your mother doesn't like to move to a big house." Dad said as he looked inside the house. "But she wants to clearChu, she will be my interim wife in the future, and that family needs her. "

"I understand."

"Also, your mother will know about your relationship with Hanyun sooner or later." Dad said, "Although this matter cannotWho is to blame, it's just that our older generation mishandled it. Now, Hanyun's mother is in poor spirits and has suffered multiple blows.She didn't expect that her daughter's boyfriend was her brother, and you... used to have incest. "

"Then she will definitely blame me and my mother." I said as if concluding, and then said lightly.laugh.

"You don't have to worry. I'm at Zhang's house all day, and no one can have an opinion on my decision." Dad stared at meSaid: "I love your mother. You are our son, of course I will treat HI. But after you enter Zhang's house, you have to be safeDivide a little. Remember how you used to say to me? You said you love my money, but at the same time you will protect Hanyun. butHanyun is dead. And thus died with your child in my womb. You did not protect her well. "

I couldn't utter a word, but my father's eyes suddenly became extremely deep.

"Family ugliness should not be spread. Your mother and I need to take great responsibility for this matter. I don't blame you either.Now, apart from our Zhang family, only Li Yanhua knows about this matter. You gotta keep him tight-lipped, understand? "

I can only nod.

"As for your fiancée in the resettlement area..." Dad said again.

The more I listened, the more frightened I became.

"Actually, from the very beginning, you never planned to marry Hanyun sincerely, did you?"

"I don't know." I said. In fact, from the beginning to the end, I didn't think about how to solve this matter.

"A man can have three wives and four concubines, but if you entered Zhang's family as a son-in-law, do you think you can still be married?"Can you marry a woman other than Hanyun? "

I turned my face away, the hand holding the cigar kept shaking.

"It's useless to say anything now, and Han Yun can't marry you..." Father asked himself and answered, raising his head. "Ai Guan, you are a smart person, but don't make mistakes in front of me. Li Yanhua is your military advisor, right?Hey, HI, let's learn from him how to get along with me Zhang You, he has very good experience in this area. and also,When I marry your mother, you should also marry that girl. In this way, you have a wife, a familyThey will look down on the matter between you and Hanyun.Even if they say they can't forget, I will make them forget. "

I promised my father.

Dad looked into my eyes and said, "Remember, I am the king of the empire. Everyone should obey me."

I began to understand why someone like Li Yanhua should be my father's subordinate. Dad was right, he wasking. In this empire, he is the king.

On the 30th night of the Lunar New Year, my father asked my mother and I to go to the mansion on the top of the mountain to have a reunion dinner, and also told me to call Le Ci's family.The car carried the six of us to the mountain. During this period, Le Ci held my hand tightly, and his palm was sweating coldly. i see herPutting on a newly ordered red dress, she looked so flustered, so she gently kissed her forehead.

The Lin family was of course surprised. They never imagined that my mother and I would suddenly become a rich family. AlthoughI don't know the details, but they also know that my biological father is not Li Guanghua, but thisThe master of the Zhang family who invited them to the banquet. Lefeng played with me in Zhang's villa for a while before, so I doubledsurprise.

The car drove on the mountain road for a long time, and during the period, there were not trees on the mountain road outside the car, but luxurious mansions.I haven't been here since I recognized my father. Until today, I finally visited my own home for the first time.

Finally, the car drove to a flat terrain and entered, and soon a large gate equipped with monitoring instruments and guards opened.It suddenly appeared in front of my eyes. When the guard saw the car and confirmed the occupants, he unfastened the electric lock of the gate from inside,The gates opened to both sides to let the cars in.

The driver slowed down on the asphalt road in the garden. After the car stopped, the driver first got out of the car and walked toOpen the car door for us. As soon as both feet set foot on the ground, Mrs. Lin opened her mouth wide, and then Mrs. LinShaking his head as if in disbelief, Le Feng turned around and looked around, Le Ci held my arm without moving.Dare to move. The family has lived in a wooden house in the resettlement area so far, so it is natural for them to be put into this environment suddenly.Be intimidated.

In fact, even I myself don't quite believe that the real world is in front of me. If we compare Zhangjia Villa with this placeIt's like the difference between the size of a birthday cake and a macaroon. In a huge garden beyond imagination,To say the least, there are dozens of mercury lamps erected, shining brightly in the evening twilight; outside the asphalt areIn the ocean-like grassland, multiple lawnmowers are mowing back and forth on the lawn like robots;A stone gazebo was built in the distance, but no one was resting inside, only stone lanterns hung on it glowing with fire;On the other side of the gazebo, you can see the swimming pool covered by buildings, and you can barely use your flesh to stand here.You can see it with your own eyes; there are many unknown flowering trees planted along the outer wall around the garden, and many dead leaves are scattered in the middle of winter.On the ground, if Li Xin really wanted to clean it up, it would take a week!

A man in his sixties stood where we got off the bus. He stood respectfully on the spot, as if he hadAs if taking the time to surprise us. He didn't say to me until my eyes fell on him:"I am Housekeeper Zhao of this house. Excuse me, are you the Eighth Young Master?"

I nodded. "Just call me Ai Guan."

"Guan Ai, it's a pleasure to meet you." Butler Zhao said and bowed to me, then looked at my mother. "This must beFour ladies? "

My mother didn't know whether to agree or deny, and finally nodded slightly.

"Please take care of me." Housekeeper Zhao said, "Dinner starts at eight o'clock. I'll invite everyone to come in for a rest.Take a break. "

We followed Butler Zhao to the house. I saw a tall and magnificent building standing on the ground a few tens of yards away.Right in the middle of the garden, we passed tennis courts, lotus ponds, large garages, etc. along the way. I look at thatThe house looks like a palace, so I asked: "How many floors are there in the big house?"

"There are six floors in total." Zhao Butler said, "The basement is the wine cellar; the first floor is the living room, dining room, side hall and kitchen.bedrooms; the second and third floors are everyone's bedroom and study; the fourth floor is a billiard room, squash room, small cinema and servants.People's bedrooms; the fifth floor is full of guest rooms; the sixth floor is private offices and meeting rooms; there is a greenhouse garden on the roof, etc.Wait. "

Mr. Lin was dumbfounded. "Then... the six floors, aren't you exhausted after going up and down?"

Butler Zhao showed a smile that gave a good impression. "There are four elevators in the house. Two elevators in the lobby, near theThere are two side halls at the back door. "

Le Feng said in disbelief: "Ai Guan, will you move here from now on?"

I smiled slightly, and then asked Butler Zhao. "Who lives in the house now?"

"One mother of Master Zhang, three wives of Master Zhang, seven sons and daughters of Master Zhang, and daughter-in-law of Master ZhangThree wives, three son-in-laws of Mr. Zhang, thirteen grandchildren of Mr. Zhang, and a total of 30 Mr. Zhang himselfone person. At that time, when Ai Guan and the fourth wife move in, there will be thirty-three people. If Ai Guan marries the eighth young lady again, it will beThirty-four people. "

I whispered in Le Ci's ear and said, "Did you hear that? Eighth Young Mistress."

Le Ci blushed and was too nervous to answer.

Mrs. Lin murmured: "We have become in-laws with this big family."

Talking and walking, finally reached the mansion. We stepped up the majestic marble steps, and Butler Zhao used goldThe key opens the door. As soon as the hall came into view, my whole body trembled involuntarily. i didn't even see the houseFeeling dizzy from the environment inside. I closed my eyes, as if in a dream.

I'm home.I stepped into the door, and there were two maids standing on each side of the door, and I heard them say loudly: "Welcome to your husband!"Ren, the eighth young master, and the Lin family. "

After hearing this, my mother shyly saluted them back, while Mr. Lin and Mrs. Lin were even more shocked. I look backSaid to Butler Zhao: "You tell everyone, don't call me Eighth Young Master, call me Ai Guan."

Butler Zhao was slightly taken aback, and then replied respectfully: "Yes, I will take care of it."

"Where are the others? Where are they?"

"They're all upstairs. I'll come down to meet you later."

I nodded, then put one hand on Le Ci's shoulder, and walked straight into the hall with my arms around her. here is simplyIt is the imperial palace, resplendent and resplendent, with countless decorations that I can't count. "Le Ci, do you see? This is mes home. "

"Guan Ai..." Le Ci said.

"It's Ai Guan." I smiled and said, "Now everyone except my mother calls me that. You will also want to,do you know? "

Le Ci walked on the thick carpet unaccustomed, and said again: "But I have called you Guan Ai for more than ten years, how can you change it?"Delicious? "

"Well...you can call me my husband." I smiled, and finally went to the living room, together with herSitting on the sofa.

At this time, my mother and others also came to the living room. The living room is placed in the center of the house, the ceiling goes straight to the roof,A total of four long sofas are in the shape of a square, and there is a long coffee table in front of each side, and each coffee table is placedThere are tea sets and a pot of Longjing tea, and there are also a pack of cigarettes, a metal lighter and a crystal ashtray in each. IAs soon as we sat down, the maid poured tea for everyone.

I opened the new pack of cigarettes on the coffee table, lit one myself, and offered one to Mr. Lin. I lift Jirolegs, and asked: "Chinese New Year, why don't you see any decorations at home?"

Butler Zhao replied: "Because Zhang's family is more westernized, it's not very grand every New Year's Eve.Have a reunion dinner together. And Miss Eight...Miss Nine passed away not long ago...so..."

I stared at Steward Zhao coldly, but he looked away in embarrassment.

Le Ci asked in a low voice: "Who is that Miss Nine?"

"It's my sister." I replied casually, "Just died. Don't ask too many questions."

Just then, my father appeared on the long winding staircase. Twenty or thirty people followed him,Except for my grandmother, I didn't know anyone, men, women, old and young.

Dad walked up to my mother and smiled slightly. "You came."

Mom nodded lightly.

Dad patted me on the shoulder, and then introduced everyone to me. Regarding the relationship between the characters in the Zhang family, I am countingIt took months to officially remember everyone's names.

Father's mother's name is Yunsu? Davis, eighty-four years old, was my grandmother.

Father has three wives, namely my aunt, second aunt and third aunt. My aunt is the first wife, named Luo Ayu, fiftySix years old, married into Zhang's family in 2026; second aunt named Zhong Jiahui, 48 years old, married into Zhang's family in 2004; third aunt named ZhuangHong Hong, thirty-nine years old, married into the Zhang family in 1941; after that was my mother, Long Zhiling, who was fourth, thirty-four years old,In 1963, she married into Zhang's family.

Father has nine children. The eldest daughter, Zhang Cuihua, is 36 years old; the second son, Zhang Cuishen, is 34 years oldThe third son, Zhang Cuisheng, is thirty years old. The three of them are the children of the aunt. Fourth son Zhang Minyao, 20Eight years old: fifth daughter Zhang Minna, 25 years old; seventh daughter Zhang Mincheng, 19 years old. All three of them are second auntsthe next children. The sixth son, Zhang Hanfeng, was nineteen years old; the ninth daughter, Zhang Hanyun, was sixteen years old. both of themThe children born to the third aunt. The eighth son is my Zhangguan Ai, sixteen years old, the only son born to my mother.

Among the nine children, except for the sixth son Zhang Hanfeng, the deceased Zhang Hanyun and me, the other six aremarried. The husband of the eldest daughter, Zhang Cuihua, is Wei Zhaoming, who is 40 years old; the wife of the second son, Zhang Cuiyu, is Jiang YueMei, 34 years old; the wife of the third son Zhang Cuisheng named Chen Qixian, 25 years old; the wife of the fourth son Zhang MinyaoHis name is Zhou Fang, 26 years old; the husband of his fifth daughter Zhang Minna is Qian Zihao, 27 years old; the husband of his seventh daughter Zhang MinchengThe husband is Zhou Yu, nineteen years old, and he is also the younger brother of Zhang Minyao's wife, Zhou Fang (that is, a pair of brothers in Zhang's family).My sister married a pair of sisters and brothers outside). These people are all my sister-in-law or brother-in-law.

Grandma is the first generation, my parents and aunts are the second generation, and my other brothers and sisters are the third generation.Let's talk about the fourth generation, that is, my father's children and grandchildren. The eldest daughter Zhang Cuihua and her husband Wei Zhaoming had four children.The son is Wei Dixiong, 16 years old; the second son is Wei Diyan, 13 years old; the third daughter is Wei Dishan, 12 years old;The fourth son is Wei Diyao, who is eight years old. The second son, Zhang Cuishen, and his wife, Jiang Yuemei, have two children.Zhang Linying is fourteen years old; the youngest son is Zhang Linze, eleven years old. The third son Zhang Cuisheng gave birth to his wife Chen QixianThree daughters, the eldest daughter is Zhang Bailing, seven years old; the second daughter is Zhang Bailong, four years old; the third daughter is Zhang Baihui,two years old. The fourth son Zhang Minyao and his wife Zhou Fang gave birth to a son named Zhang Yongkang, who is seven years old; the fifth daughter Zhang MinNa and her husband Qian Zihao have three children, the eldest daughter is Qian Kaiping, and the second daughter is Qian Kaiting, both are four years old.They are twin sisters; the third son is Qian Kaijun, who is under one year old. Seventh daughter Zhang Mincheng and her husband Zhou Yu have just been marriedYears, nothing came out. There are a total of thirteen descendants of the fourth generation of the Zhang family, all of whom are my nephews and nephews.

At that time, of course, my father did not introduce me in such detail. He just briefly explained what I called them or what they called each other.relationship is over. Among so many of them, some are enthusiastic about my two mothers and children, some are indifferent, and somePeople hate each other, some people seem to have nothing to do with it, and some people feel embarrassed. Especially the third aunt, the way she looked at me wasLike wanting to bite off my flesh. And my sixth brother Zhang Hanfeng, he sneered at me again and again. certainly,They are Han Yun's mother and elder brother, so they don't have any good looks towards me.

My mother first saluted to grandma, and grandma just smiled lightly, which was considered friendly. Then my mother askedThe aunt, second aunt and third aunt talked about the ceremony. The aunt returned the salute solemnly without saying anything; the second aunt took my motherI smiled and said that you are welcome, and you are like a good sister; the last is the third aunt, when my mother salutes herShe immediately moved away and said coldly, "I can't bear it."

I went forward to separate my mother who was standing there awkwardly, and greeted all the elders myself. When it was the third aunt's turn, I bowedBody said: "Third Aunt, Ai Guan sends you greetings."

Third Aunt giggled, then stared at me sharply. "That's a good word "Ai Guan". You are the same for eldersWhat do you call yourself? "

I said nonchalantly, "It's for everyone."

The third aunt shouted loudly: "Oh, what a grandeur. Come, come, and the third aunt will also come to kowtow to you.Do you want all my children to greet you? "

"Where is your child?" I looked at the crowd. "Sixth Brother, and Ninth Sister?"

Third Aunt's face suddenly twitched. "You still call Hanyun your ninth sister? You wild—"

"Are you crazy enough?" Dad shouted in a deep voice.

After giving Dad such a drink, Third Aunt couldn't get off the stage anymore, so she ran back upstairs with her face covered. Dad said to the sixth brother Zhang Hanfeng: "Go back and see your crazy girl. If anyone in this room mentions your sister again, then get out of here! Do you hear me?"Have? "

Zhang Hanfeng Zhan Jingjing agreed, then turned around and went back upstairs.

"Ai Guan, you too. Don't mention the past." Dad looked at me and said.

"Don't mention it. I won't mention it in the future." I spread my hands and smiled.

Everyone also showed displeasure when they saw me like this. They knew that Han Yun's death was because of me, but I stillWith such a hippie smile, he doesn't restrain himself in the new environment. But what the hell, I'm part of the family now,You can't be oppressed by the people here forever holding on to your sore feet. I just deliberately mentioned Hanyun in front of my third aunt,Let her know not to try to use this to demoralize me.

The next step is to have a reunion dinner. Butler Zhao is right, the Zhang family really doesn't attach much importance to the Lunar New Year, soSince Sanyi and Zhang Hanfeng were missing from the dinner, no one thought it was wrong. But I found that the family still carried manyChinese traditional concept. For example, in the banquet, the location is arranged early in the morning. My father, grandmother, aunt, twoMy aunt, my mother, the Lin couple, the eldest daughter Zhang Cuihua and the eldest son Zhang Cuishen are sitting in the seat closest to the grandfather.I ate at the table with the portrait; and I sat with four other brothers and sisters, sister-in-law, brother-in-law, Le Ci and Le Feng.In the last station; and then the rest of the nieces or nephews are assigned to the most remote station.

Seniors and young are orderly, Chinese characteristics.

After dinner, Dad said he wanted to discuss marriage with the Lin family. My father asked my mother when she would let me marry Le Ci, but my mother didn't know much.If you have any opinion, please turn to Lin and his wife. And the Lins didn't dare to make decisions in this environment, so they always asked me what I wanted to do in the end.When will I marry Le Ci? I thought for a while and said, "Leci and I made an engagement when we were seven years old.I was seventeen years old in just over a month, and my life was just right. I think it will be held on a date after my birthday. "

Le Ci listened and looked at me, but still remained silent, as if she had many things on her mind.

Father smiled slightly, and said to my mother, "Well, how about April 18th? I was also in Hong Kong during those few days,At that time, in addition to marrying a daughter-in-law in the Zhang family, I will also marry you together. "

Mrs. Lin smiled all over her face. "That's really a double blessing. Congratulations, Mr. Zhang."

"From now on, we will be in-laws. If you need anything, you can ask Ai Guan to pass a message, and I will do it accordingly." Father said againSaid to Le Ci: "Choose a day, you and the prospective mother-in-law come up to pick out some jewelry, and you can take it if you like it. When the time comesI want my daughter-in-law to marry in beautifully. "

"Thank you, Master Zhang." Le Ci thanked bluntly.

I saw Le Feng looking at my younger sister with jealousy, so I patted her hand secretly and smiled at her.She smiled, but she turned her head and ignored me. I smiled at my dad, "The new house is so big, I haven't even visited it carefully.I want to go for a walk in the garden with Le Ci. "

Master Zhang nodded and raised his hand, indicating that we can go out. He is indeed the kind who doesn't like to talk too muchto give orders to others.

Le Ci and I walked out of the garden through the door of the side hall. I don't see the lawn mower working just now, I think it's already goneAfter get off work, while the rest of the people are in the house, the garden is quiet. Leci and I walked around the perimeter of the house slowlyLet's go, she breathed a sigh of relief: "I was really nervous just now."

"What's there to be nervous about?"

"The room here is so big, and there are so many people... Anyway, I feel uncomfortable." Le Ci said, crossing his armsshrug.

"You will also move in in the future." I smiled.

"Then what about my parents?"

"I will find another place to settle them. Also, tell your sister to quit her job at the foreign firm. If sheNeed work, and I'll have a job for her. "

Le Ci lowered his head. After a long time, he asked, "Guan Ai, tell me the truth."

"What? "

"How did you suddenly change from a poor boy in the resettlement area to today's eighth son of the Zhang family? Also, that nineMiss... what happened to her? What happened to you with her? "

"I am Master Zhang's son. He has found me, so I will naturally move to his house." I said.

"Where's your own father?"

"What's your own father?" We walked to the side of the swimming pool at this time, I stopped and said to Le CiConfused, he said: "Zhang You is my father, Li Guanghua is just a man who has lied to me for more than ten years."

"All this has changed too fast." Le Ci looked at me as if she didn't know what to do. "I really... don't knowWhat to do. "

"It's very simple, you don't have to think about anything, just marry me."

"How can you say that?" Le Ci choked up. "Now I don't know anything...Guan Ai, you have becomeI'm a stranger, and I realize that you are no longer the one who used to play cook with me, you are hiding many things from me.Who is Miss Nine? What happened to you? Why are you avoiding my question? "

"She is my dead sister." I closed my eyes and said, "She committed suicide because of me. That's it."

"Why did she commit suicide because of you?"

"Because she likes me." I looked in another direction, unwilling to tell Le Ci about it. "She likes me,Later, I found out that I was her brother, so I couldn't bear the blow, and went to commit suicide. Is this enough? "

"Do you like her too?" Le Ci said as if he suddenly understood.

"A little bit!" I became irritable. "I didn't know she was my sister at the time, so I liked it a little bit.she. That happened when I was a child, do I need to explain everything clearly? That's normal, right? do i really onlycan love you a woman? "

Le Ci shed tears and covered the lower half of her face with her hands. I found that she was very similar to Mom when she cried. I stepped forwardHolding her hand, he continued, "I'll tell you, my mother was so stupid back then that a man could only love one woman."So I have been separated from my father for more than ten years, and I don't even have a chance to recognize him! You have always respected my mother, putAs her role model, she is now a teaching material. You see, didn't my mother return to my father in the end? CanShe wasted more than ten years of youth. You don't have to make this mistake now, I want to marry you as my wife, you still haveWhat is unsatisfactory? "

"I don't know, I don't know..." Le Ci struggled, crying and trying to get rid of me.

I watched Le Ci crying, and realized that she was really similar to Mom. I do not know where the impulse came from, Ikissed her lips. Le Ci was startled, and tried harder to push me away. I hold her tight, like firekissed her.

Over the years, I have never kissed Le Ci, most of them just kissed her cheek and forehead, let alone kissed her.she makes love. I have never had the urge to possess her, but today I can't stop the desire. Leci's impression isMy heart keeps swelling, I must fuck her!

The two of us were entangled by the pool, and suddenly our feet were empty, and the two of us fell into the pool together. FebruaryAt that time, the water in the pool is so cold that the pores of the whole body shrink. But I didn't stop, still holding Leci tightly in the water,Kissing her collarbone desperately.

Le Ci tremblingly shouted: "No... Guan Ai... It's cold... Don't..."

The skirt on Le Ci's body was soaked with water, and the little gown inside was faintly visible on the dark red cloth.I took off her short coat and pulled down her shoulder straps. Her cleavage was squeezed on the light red dress. I useHis tongue licked back and forth on it, but his body slowly led Le Ci to swim to the center of the pool.

Seeing that she couldn't make it through the struggle and was getting farther and farther away from the edge of the pool, Le Ci hugged my body hard to keep warm, shivering non-stop.Suo said: "Guan Ai...I'm cold...you let me go...I want to go up..."

"Stay a little longer...it won't be so cold." My voice was also shaking violently. Leci now uses her legs to tightenClamping me tightly, my cock from the waist was erect like a nuba, only numb from the cold water. I'll take a look at this timeAll around, the entire garden is as wide as a forest, and the house is tens of meters away. i'm in the waterPutting his hands into Le Ci's skirt, he found a pair of shorts inside.

I laughed as if I thought it was funny. "Leci...you wear safety pants inside a long skirt?"

The tip of Leci's nose lightly touched mine, panting. "Guan Ai...how come you...didn't...... mess with me? "

I slowly took off her shorts. "I don't know...you always...wanted me to fuck you too?"

Le Ci frowned, leaned her head on my shoulder and didn't speak.

With great difficulty, she took off her shorts in the water, then put her palm on her tits, and gently rubbed herstand up. Le Ci is not as big as her elder sister, but she is not too small, she is considered moderate. Le Ci said: "It's been hard work......Guan Ai...so cold...I really love you...but you have never been interested in me..."

"I'm sorry." I quietly put my other hand into her panties, digging restlessly with my fingers.between the thighs. "Leci is so beautiful...but I rarely think of you there...I think...it's becauseBecause I love you so much..."

"Don't lie to me..." Le Ci closed her eyes and said tremblingly, "You love more than me..."

"I really love you." I said sincerely, "Are you still thinking about my sister?"

"No...but even without her, I know you don't love me..." Le Ciopen your eyes, gloomyHe said, "I don't know who you're thinking of."

"Then I don't know either." As I said, I lifted her body up, let her float on the water, and then held her handsPut your head close between your legs and lick the top of your panties.

Le Ci seemed to have adapted to the water temperature a little bit, and floated on the surface of the water without moving for a while, with his face upturned, thinkingsomething. I gently pulled my panties aside and continued eating over the pussy. Le Ci suddenly turned aroundCome on, say, "No, I'm going back." Slowly swim to the other side.

"Why?" I rushed behind her and put my arms around her shoulders. "Don't go...I need you."

Le Ci burst into tears and said, "Guan Ai... I really don't understand you. You are the young master of the Zhang family now.Lord, there are countless wealth waiting for you, why do you still want me, a poor girl? What good am I? you don'tYou don't love me, you just love to stand out, love glory and wealth, and love power over the world. Guan Ai, in these daysCome on, have you ever thought about your former father? Before his bones were cold, you rushed to recognize another father. If there isOne day, Mr. Zhang asked you to divorce me, otherwise he would break away from the father-son relationship with you, and you will do as he said, right?Now that you've got what you want most, I beg you...don't look for me again. "

I slowly turned Le Ci's body around, forced a smile and said, "Look, you're crying like this..." SaidWipe away tears for her.

"No...don't treat me like this again." Le Ci cried bitterly, bowing her head even lower. "My life is miserable, come outI am humble, and all my life I just want to find someone who loves me deeply to be my husband. I have been with you since I have memory. IWe played together, grew up together, I thought you would be my forever man. But as we grow,You will be farther away from me. You are no longer satisfied with running to my house to play, not satisfied with going to and from class with me,Even when I approach you, you will subconsciously avoid me. I've been miserable for years, you know? Whenever I see you frowning alone, worrying about something, I also hope to comfort youFor a moment, to give you a little support, but you disappeared without a trace as soon as you turned your head. You used to do bad things when you were a child,I hug my mother... like this, but I also think: You will find me back in the end. no matter how bad you are, youYou will still keep your promise to marry me. But...but..."

"I'm not going to marry you now?" I said softly, "I need you, do you understand? I... II can't go back, and I never thought about going back. However, if I lose you, I will feel as if my body is missingIt's like one piece is missing. Yes, I admit that I am a bad person and have done many bad things, but I still love you.I feel guilty now too. I feel guilty why I didn't hold you tighter before, making you want to leave today. I haveI thought you would always be waiting for me, I thought you were already in my hands, but I was wrong. Today II finally know that my Le Ci is not happy. I don't ask you to pay for me like you used to, but you at leastGive me one more chance, let me cherish you. Ten years ago, your mother and my mother entered into a marriage contract, and then I decided toI will marry you. But now, I am not for the promise I made back then, I am only for myself, and I really propose to you. happyCi, marry me, give me one more chance to make it up. "

Le Ci raised her head, her face was covered with tears, she bit her lower lip, unable to agree for a long time. "Guan Ai, you won'tChanged, right? You're always going to do whatever it takes to get what you want, right? "

"What do you think of me?" I smiled and shook my head, hitting the water with my palm, and the water splashed everywhere. "you want me--Give up all this now? My name is Zhangguan Ai, and all of this belongs to me! Why don't you think for me? I alwaysMy life is not fair, I have been exploited all this time, everyone in this room is occupying meWell deserved over the years! Han Yun is dead, people here want me to be buried with her! if i don't deal with himThey're coming for me. Leci, I can't help myself. "

"I'm just worried about you." Le Ci shook his head and said, "When you have more money and more power, youwill be more dangerous. If I'm with you, there's not a single day of peace in our lives. Guan Ai, why don't you bringI get out of here. I'm afraid, I'm really afraid. "

"Don't be afraid, no one can hurt us." I held Le Ci's face and made a promise to her. "I loveThe official will not lose, and no one can defeat me. Sooner or later, the owner of the Zhang family will be me——This world is mine! "

Le Ci just shook her head in fear, no longer knowing how to persuade me.

"Leci, marry me and live with me and my mother. In this room, I only trust you two. IfIf you leave me, I can't support it. "

Le Ci touched my face and said sadly: "Guan Ai, you have to cherish yourself, you know? Without youIf not, I can't survive. Whatever you want me to do, I will follow you. But you have to listen to me this time, stop hurting people,Otherwise you will suffer yourself. "

I didn't say anything anymore, pulled off Le Ci's bra, and opened my mouth to suck her nipples. then i liftedher legs, take her to the edge of the pool, let her lean on it, then pull off her panties while taking her own pantsUntie it and insert it with a cock.

Le Ci grabbed my shoulder hard, grunted, and then gradually calmed down. I pump one by oneCut in, and said to her: "Leci, do you understand? We will be better in the future. We will live like emperors,Never worry about money again. I can give you what you want then. "

Leci's face was full of pain, as if she was not used to being fucked hard by my cock in her hole. "I only want you to loveI... Guan Ai, don't leave me behind..."

I slowly became excited. In my eyes, this time is not just pure sex, but I completely ownLeci's proof. Leci, she can't choose. She is destined to follow me all her life. In fact, when she was fucked by me,is to feel sad more than anything else. And when she climaxed, it was the saddest thing I've ever heard from any womanclimax.

Following this intense sex with Le Ci in the swimming pool, my life was completely reversed.

On April 18, 1963, my mother Long Zhiling officially married into the Zhang family as the fourth concubine. On the same day, I alsoMarried Lin Leci as his wife. And we also moved into the Zhang family mansion.

On April 19, 1963, I was sitting in the over 1,000-square-foot suite of the Zhang Family Mansion, facing the floor-to-ceiling windowsoutside. The lush forests on the mountain are scattered with the early morning mist. I smoke a cigarette. feel seventeen yearsThe coming teenage years are over. Life changes, God knows?

What will happen in the future?

It's me - Ai Guan's momentum.
