NFBE Chapter 517 Who is Your Father?
Chapter 517 Who is Your Father?
Wang Cheng listened to his mother's words and nodded in understanding. He wanted to ask more questions about what happened back then, but his father suddenly pushed him aside.
While the mother and son were talking quietly, Wang Ersheng grilled another plate of meat and offered his courtesy to his wife: "Zhizhi, I have nothing to do all day. Wherever you want to go in this world, I will accompany you."
Li Anhe glanced at her children uncomfortably and said in a low voice, "What nonsense are you talking about again? Aren't you afraid that the children will laugh at you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Ersheng's eyes, which were originally full of smiles, suddenly became cold and swept to the side, but Wang Cheng had already wisely left and no longer was an eyesore in front of his parents.
By then, the farce between Lin Yuzan and his daughter had subsided.
The baby was taken away by Wan Niang, who couldn't bear to watch it anymore. However, her heart was filled with resentment about not being able to eat meat. Before leaving, she did not forget to glare at her father angrily.
Lin Yuzan looked down at the shallow teeth marks on the back of his hand, feeling angry and helpless. He couldn't help but sigh softly. At this moment, Wang Cheng appeared quietly beside him with a hint of meat aroma.
He glanced sideways and saw that the guy had an indescribable mocking smile on his face.
Lin Yuzan glanced at the man in annoyance. He was too lazy to talk to him. He bent down to pick up the book and was about to go back to his room. Then he heard a chuckle behind him: "Shun'an is really secretive. He never wanted to tell my eldest brother and his wife the real name."
He paused, turned slightly, and glanced behind him with a dark look. Wang Cheng lowered his eyes, with a hurt expression on his face: "I thought Shunan and I were the same kind of people, but now it seems that I was just being sentimental. I just don't know if Shunan already knew that you are not the teacher's child."
Before he finished speaking, Wang Cheng slowly raised his eyes and stared at the person in front of him, his eyes full of mockery.
However, Lin Yuzan did not look at him directly, but looked around at the warm scene and said calmly: "You and I are not the same kind of people. Even if everyone in the world says that I am not my father's child, I only recognize my father. I have always been more clear than you about the grace of giving birth and raising."
Wang Cheng:......
These words were like a sharp knife piercing Wang Cheng's heart, and the embarrassing scene of being kicked out of the house by his parents in his previous life was clearly reproduced in front of him. His face instantly became gloomy and ugly.
After Lin Yuzan said this, his eyes were full of sarcasm and provocation as he looked back at Wang Cheng.
Their eyes met, incompatible with each other, invisible sparks spread wantonly between the two, igniting an incompatible atmosphere of tension in the Wang family's courtyard full of fireworks.
At this moment, Xiao Yining, who had not yet noticed the subtle atmosphere between the two, ran back happily with a string of roasted bird eggs given by a fellow villager.
She held up the bird eggs and said proudly, "Uncle is still good to Qingjie. He roasted bird eggs for Qingjie. Qingjie will be good to uncle forever."
These words successfully interrupted the invisible confrontation between the two old men. They both moved at the same time, and without hesitation, they punched each other first, and then they wrestled together, with each move showing ferocity.
"Wang Shuzhi, we are equally matched, yet you are trying to provoke me without knowing the consequences." Lin Yuzan grabbed Wang Cheng by the collar and scolded him.
The next moment, Wang Cheng pressed Lin Yuzan under him, his eyes bloodshot, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Shun'an thinks too highly of himself. I still have people I am willing to confide in, but you are as timid as a mouse and don't want to say anything. Do you want to repeat the same mistake and bring disaster to your family?"
"..."
"..."
The two figures were entangled wildly in the dust, fists were waving, and I still remember the dumbfounded person on the side, who was moving further and further away.
Xiao Yining: ⊙_⊙
She stood there in a daze. After a while, she came to her senses and subconsciously blew away the dust on the bird eggs. Then she stuffed them into her mouth, chewing them while puffing her cheeks. She said incoherently, "Dad and my uncle really have a good relationship!"
The fight between the two did not last long before Wang Ersheng forcefully stopped them.
In the end, both of them were tied up tightly and hung on a big tree at the door to cool their brains down. They were not too far away from each other, just enough to see the remaining anger in each other's eyes.
Under the moonlight, two figures swayed slowly in the breeze. The lights in the Wang family did not stay for them, and went out one by one. Then, a lullaby that accompanied them growing up slowly sounded.
"It's getting dark, the flower boy is coming to catch the baby..."
Lin Yuzan gradually calmed down as Wanniang sang to comfort the baby. He looked up at the room where his wife was, and his mind flashed with her gentle figure caressing their daughter's back.
His thoughts gradually drifted back to his past life, and he recalled the scene of his first meeting with Leng Mengwan.
At that time, he did not believe in gods and ghosts, but after the witch asked him if he still remembered Qing Jie'er, she told him word for word why he gave his daughter this nickname.
"Lin Yuzan, you once said that you hoped your daughter would have a happy and peaceful life, so you gave her the nickname Qing Jie'er."
Not only that, in the days that followed, Leng Mengwan often mentioned the little details of his time with Wan Niang, and she could even recount in full the mumblings that Wan Niang had said in her sleep after losing Qing Jie'er.
All of this made him feel confused and surprised. As time went by, these signs made him more and more convinced that the person was undoubtedly Wan Niang, and he was happy to do so even if she used him again and again.
Lin Yuzan was immersed in memories. Although he now believed in ghosts and gods, he never thought that there would be such a coincidence in the world. There must be some unknown inside story hidden in it, but he has not yet discovered it.
However, just as he was racking his brains to think, a harsh and sarcastic voice suddenly exploded in his ears, abruptly pulling him back to reality from his thoughts.
"What is Shun'an thinking about? Is he missing his biological father, the former crown prince? Or some powerful person in Yanjing?"
During the long night, Wan Niang's singing did not calm Wang Cheng down, but reminded him of the sad scene of burying his sister with his own hands. And now, the life experience that Lin Yuzan wanted to hide is very likely to become the next death warrant.
Thinking of this, his anger could not be suppressed.
When Lin Yuzan heard this, his brows furrowed in displeasure, but he did not get angry. Instead, he replied calmly: "I have nothing to do with the former crown prince, so you don't have to try to provoke me."
Wang Cheng's anger eased a little, and he felt relieved. Even his tone became much more relaxed. He reminded calmly, "Even if it's unrelated, you have to dig this person out. He must know about your existence, otherwise he wouldn't have come to the second elder. And my mother said that when Master's wife disappeared in Yanjing, even the Crown Prince couldn't find out who was behind it."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yuzan looked at him in surprise and said, "The last letter Pei Yi sent didn't mention my mother's name. When did you go to inquire about it?"
Wang Cheng did not hide this and answered truthfully: "It was Sister Qing who inadvertently called out when she was offering sacrifices to the Master's wife. I think you saw it in your dream, but you were only thinking about Wan Niang at the time and did not hear it."
Lin Yuzan's eyebrows relaxed at these words. He sighed softly and said with a hint of melancholy: "Qing Jie'er has been following me in my dreams. She really knows everything about me."
After saying this, he fell into a brief period of contemplation again.
Wang Cheng showed impatience and asked directly, "Since you already knew it, have you found out who your father is?"
Unexpectedly, Lin Yuzan only glanced at him calmly, and then replied decisively: "Lin Fushun, your teacher."
Wang Cheng:......
